INTRODUCTION

The 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one scaffold is present in nat-ural products, such as dianthalexin, the major phytoalexinfrom carnation, [1] and constitutes a reactive and versatilestarting material extensively used for the synthesis of avariety of important nitrogen heterocyclic systems suchas quinazolin-4(3H)-ones [2–4] and 4-hydroxy-quinolin-2(1H)-ones.[5,6] The reactivity of these heterocyclicsystems has been the subject of an excellent review byCoppola [7] in which all aspects of potential sites of reac-tions of these compounds are presented. The aza-analogsof 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones, namely 4H-pyrido[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-ones, although much less studied from areactivity point of view, have also served as startingmaterials for the synthesis of bioactive compounds such

a field in which rapid compound library production is ofgreat scientific and economic importance, is of special inter-est, as the constantly growing demand of the pharmaceuticalindustry for more structurally diverse compound collectionstowards the identification of novel drug leads causes a needfor more rapid and efficient synthesis of organic molecules.In the course of our research aimed at the synthesis and

study of novel bioactive 4-hydroxy-quinolin-2(1H)-onesand their derivatives,[15] we have decided to explorethe potential of MAOS in the construction of libraries of4-hydroxy-quinolin-2(1H)-one analogs. The quinolinonescaffold is encountered in natural products such as quinolinealkaloids.[16,17] Natural and synthetic quinolinone analogspossess a wide variety of biological activities includinganti-inflammatory,[15,18] antioxidant,[15,19,20] immuno-modulatory,[21] and enzyme inhibitory activity.[15,22]Characteristic examples of microwave-assisted synthesis

of quinolinone derivatives involve in most cases, reactionsbetween anilines and malonates.[23–26] The exploitationof microwave irradiation enabled Kappe et al. to synthesizea variety of 4-hydroxy-quinolinone bioactive derivativesusing Suzuki and Heck reactions under controlled micro-wave irradiation conditions [27] and Beccalli et al. toperform intramolecular Heck cyclization reaction of hetero-arylamides in an effort to obtain improved yields inthe synthesis of fused quinolone and naphthyridonederivatives.[28] The microwave-assisted condensation ofo-aminoarylketones with active methylene compounds inthe presence of a catalytic amount of cerium chloride hepta-hydrate under solvent-free conditions provides also a varietyof substituted 2-quinolones.[29]Our approach involves the exploitation of substituted

2-methyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones (2a–2d) and 2-methyl-4H-pyrido[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one (2e) as starting materials.Compounds 2a and 2e have proved to be excellent agentsfor the C-acylation of active methylene compoundsunder basic conditions leading to 3-substituted-4-hydroxy-quinolin-2-ones after basic or acidic cyclization, as hasbeen established in our previous work.[5] Moreover, theavailability of anthranilic acids bearing a variety of substituents

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The synthesis of the starting 2-methyl-4H-3,1-benzoxa-zin-4-ones (2a–2d) and 2-methyl-4H-pyrido[2,3-d][1,3]oxazin-4-one (2e) was accomplished by treating thecorresponding anthranilic acids (1a–1d) and 2-aminonicotinic acid (1e) with acetic anhydride under microwaveirradiation conditions or conventional heating (Scheme 1).The reactivity of the synthesized oxazinones towards carbonnucleophiles under microwave irradiation conditions wasinvestigated aiming at the development of a concise and highyielding route to quinolinones and naphtyridinones.

An optimization study concerning the base, the solvent, andthe microwave reaction conditions (irradiation power, time,and temperature) was performed using the reaction between2-methyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one (2a) and diethylmalonate(3a) as the model reaction. Five different bases were used,namely, triethylamine, DBU, t-BuOK, Cs2CO3, and NaH indifferent molar ratios. The results of this study are presentedin Table 1.

The reaction of benzoxazinone 2a with diethyl malonate(3a) in the presence of cesium carbonate or potassiumtert-butoxide was unsuccessful. On the other hand, whennonnucleophilic organic bases such as DBU and triethylaminewere used, ethyl N-acetyl-anthranilate (6a) was formed as themajor product in various yields, depending on the reactionconditions. An analogous phenomenon has been previouslyreported by Beutner et al.[30] during the investigation ofthe synthesis of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxycarbonyl-N-benzyl-quinolin-2-one by heating the corresponding isatoicanhydride with dimethyl malonate in basic conditions(N,N’-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) and NaH); largeamounts of methyl N-benzyl-anthranilate were isolated.The authors proposed that the formation of the ester is theresult of a nucleophilic attack to isatoic anhydride by themethanol released during the cyclization of the quinolinone

ring. In an effort to clarify the reaction outcome, weperformed three different experiments, with dimethylmalonate, diethyl malonate, and with ethyl phenylacetateusing the conditions of entry 5. We obtained the methyland ethyl N-acetyl-anthranilates, respectively; therefore, itis evident that their formation can be attributed to therelease of the corresponding alcohol as a result of a thermaldecomposition of the esters. The formation of anthranilatesseems to be favored in higher temperatures and microwaveirradiation power (entries 4–8).The synthesis of the desired 4-hydroxy-3-substituted-qui-

nolin-2-one derivatives in very satisfactory yields wasfinally accomplished using sodium hydride as the baseunder less harsh reaction conditions (entry 10), in whichno trace of the ester product was observed. To explore thescope of this reaction, we performed it with the halogensubstituted benzoxazinones (2a–2c) and pyrido-oxazinone(2e) using diethyl and dimethyl malonate, 3a and 3b, as wellas methyl acetoacetate (3c) as the carbon nucleophiles

(Scheme 2). In all cases, we were gratified to find that weobtained the corresponding 4-hydroxy-3-substituted-qui-nolin-2-ones (4a–4f) and 4-hydroxy-3-substituted-1,8-naph-tyridin-2-ones (4g) and 4h in good yields (50–70%) assolids of satisfactory purity as proved by their NMRspectra. 6,7-Dimethoxy-2-methyl-benzoxazin-4-one (2d) failedto produce the corresponding quinolinones under the investi-gated reaction conditions.

The synthesis of compounds 4a–4c has been reported inour previous work [5] and involved a two-step proceduregiving the desired compounds in 49%, 62%, and 60% overallyield, respectively. The use of microwave irradiation enabledus to obtain the compounds in one short reaction step (10min)in higher yields (60–75%) and purity. In addition, this routeprovides access to naphthyridinones 4g and 4h, which couldnot be obtained by our conventional approach.[10]

The formation of ethyl N-acetyl-anthranilate (6a) observedin the first series of optimization reactions prompted us tofurther investigate the reactivity of 3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones

toward a variety of alcohols under microwave irradiationconditions and explore the possibility of developing analternative approach toward anthranilate esters.Esters of anthranilic acids are encountered in natural

products with important bioactivity such as the enediyneanticancer antibiotics esperamicins,[31,32]methyllycaconitine,a toxic alkaloid isolated from various Delphinium species,[33,34] which possesses high affinity and selectivity tomammalian acetylcholine receptors,[35] and the diterpenealkaloid lappaconitine, with psychotropic and analgesicactivity.[36] Moreover, a number of simple anthranilateesters are important flavor and fragrance compounds,[37] whereas synthetic anthranilates have been recentlyreported to possess anticancer,[38] anti-inflammatory,[39]and antiandrogenic activity.[40]Anthranilate esters are usually synthesized by heating

isatoic anhydride with the alcohol in the presence of a catalyticamount of base.[41] However, this procedure, apart fromusing very harsh conditions, works well only with primaryalcohols, whereas it fails to give the corresponding esters withtertiary alcohols. Alternative approaches for the synthesis ofanthranilate esters have been developed such as the alkylationof basic anthranilic acid salts [42] and coupling of primary andsecondary alcohols with N-(trifluoroacetyl)-anthranilic acidfollowed by sodium borohydride mediated cleavage of theamide functionality.[43,44]As observed from the first series of reactions, DBU in

1,4-dioxane promoted the formation of the esters in thebest yields (Table 1, entry 5). When carried out withoutthe presence of base, that is, using only the oxazinoneand the alcohol, the reaction did not proceed to the desiredester formation. This observation is in agreement with thework of Errede et al.[45] who studied the reactivity of 2awith various alcohols in neutral (or slightly acidic) andbasic conditions and concluded that the presence of acatalytic amount of base is required for the reaction toproceed via the nucleophilic attack of the alcohol to the

more electrophilic carbon of position 4 of the oxazinonering and form the corresponding ester.

Having established the requirement for the base, weinvestigated the effect of the molar ratios of the reactantsand found that optimum yields and purity of the desired com-pounds were achieved when a catalytic amount of DBU(0.2 equiv), in combination with an excess of the alcohol(5 equiv) was used. Using these reaction conditions (MethodA), we successfully obtained N-acetyl-anthranilates (6a–6e)from the reaction of 2-methyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one (2a)and a variety of primary and secondary alcohols (Table 2).Method A was used also for the synthesis of N-acetyl-nicotinates 6j–6m starting from 2e. 6,7-Dimethoxy-2-methyl-4H-benzo[d][3,1]oxazin-4-one (2d) did not reactunder the same conditions, and after performing an optimiza-tion study, we concluded that this oxazinone required signifi-cantly higher temperature and microwave irradiation power(120�C, 150W, Method B) to produce the esters 6f–6i.

Esters 6a–6m were isolated as solids either directly afteracidification of the reaction mixture or after extraction withCH2Cl2 (see Experimental section). The yields of the reac-tions were more than satisfactory, ranging from 80%to 97%, and the products were pure as indicated bytheir 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectra. It is evident that thismicrowave-assisted synthesis of N-acetyl-anthranilates andN-acetyl-nicotinates provides a straightforward access tothese compounds.

CONCLUSIONS

The reactivity of oxazinones toward carbon and oxygennucleophiles using microwave irradiation conditions wasstudied. The reaction of oxazinones 2a–2e with carbonnucleophiles affords in one-step variably substituted4-hydroxy-quinolin-2-ones and 4-hydroxy-1,8-naphthyridin-2-ones.

Accuracy and Ultra High Resolution (UHPLC–LTQ OrbitrapVelos, Thermo Scientific) (Thermo-Fischer Inc, Waltham, MA,USA). Mass spectra were obtained on an ESI–MS (HPLC–LCQFleet/Thermo Scientific). All commercially available startingmaterials were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Milwaukee WI,USA) and Alfa Aesar (Karlshrue, Germany) and were used withoutfurther purification. Commercially available THF (purchased fromPanreac, Barcelona, Spain) was dried prior to use by refluxing overNa. All other solvents (puriss. quality) were purchased from Panreacused without further purification. Column chromatography wasperformed with silica gel 60 with eluents given in parentheses.

General procedure for the synthesis of compounds 2a–2e. Thesynthesis of compounds 2a–2e was accomplished by treating thecorresponding anthranilic acids (1a–1d) and 2-aminonicotinic acid (1e)with acetic anhydride under microwave irradiation conditions (2a, 2b,and 2d) (Method I) or reflux (2a, 2c, and 2e) (Method II).

Method I. In a 10-mLmW-reaction tube were placed theappropriate anthranilic acid (1a, 1b, and 1d) (5mmol) and aceticanhydride (3mL), the tube was immediately sealed and irradiated ona CEMExplorer Microwave Synthesizer at 150�C, 250W for 20min.

Method II. A mixture of anthranilic acid (1a–1d) (10mmol)or 2-aminonicotinic acid (1e) (10mmol) and acetic anhydride washeated at 140�C for 2 h or at 170�C for 1 h (in the case of 1e).

2-Methyl-benzo[d][3,1]oxazin-4-one (2a). Synthesized fromanthranilic acid (1a) using both methods. When Method I wasused, the reaction mixture was cooled to RT, transferred to around-bottomed flask using a small amount of ethyl acetate, andthe solvents were evaporated. The crude solid mass wassuspended in hexane (30mL) with stirring, and the product wasdissolved by gentle heating (~50�C), for approximately 20min.
