Discover the unique reactivity of diazines, their reactions with electrophiles and nucleophiles, as well as their application in synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Diazines are versatile compounds that react differently than pyridines, offering new possibilities in chemical transformations. Learn about key reactions, including protonation, alkylation, and cycloadditions, and explore their significance in drug discovery and organic synthesis. This comprehensive guide covers various aspects of diazines, from basic reactivity to advanced applications in pharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds.
E N D
DIAZINES Only C-5 in pyrimidine NOT elctron def. Diazines -Reacts even less readily with electrophiles than pyridine -Reacts easily with nucleophiles (additions / substitutions) -Reacts with nucleophilic radicals (Minisci) -Reacts as dienes in DA cycloadd. (less aromatic than pyridine)
Reactions with electrophiles -Protonation -N-alkylation -Ox. to N-oxides (H2O2, peracids) -Pract. no E-fil Ar subst. (C-5 pyrimidine) -Halogenation by add. / elim. mechanisms c.f. pyridines weaker bases than pyridine
Reactions with nucleophiles Addition - Rearomatization RMet: RLi, RMgX [ox]: DDQ, KMnO4 1,2- add 1,4-add Add. av NH2- (Chichibabin)
Substitution on halodiazines Nucleophiles: -ammonia / amines -thiolates -malonates etc. -water / alchohols / alchoxides Leaving groups: -halogen -OMe -SO2Me rel. soft
With hard Nu: Pd-cat. couplings
Radical reactions (Minisci) Cycloadditions (DA)
Oxydiazines Structure - Tautomerism React. with E-files More electron rich, reacts easier with E-files than diazines “OH” o/p directing
React. with Nu-files Nu Ar subst More complex mech.:

N-Deprotonation / Alkylation O-silylation / N-alkylation
N-Deprotonation / Alkylation N-alkylation / C-alkylation N-alkylation / O-alkylation
C-Deprotonation / Metallation Excess base Because of NH
Replacement of oxygen Halogenation Oxo thio
Cycloadditions Cancer Psoralenes - Psoriasis
Aminodiazines • Exists as aminodiazines (not imino…) • -NR2 electron donor: Stronger bases • -NR2 electron donor: Participates easier in E-fil Ar subst. • Diazotation reactions • Dimroth rearrangement Dimroth
