Abstract

PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF TETRAHYDRO-THIENO3,2-C!- AND 2,3-C!PYRIDINE DERIVATIVES. This invention relates to a process for the preparation of tetrahydro-thieno 3,2-c!pyridine derivatives of the formula (Ia) and their isomeris tetrahydro-thieno 2,3-c!pyridine derivatives in which R1 represents hydrogen, a lower alkyl or alkoxy radical, an aryl radical or an aralkyl radical; R2 and R3 represent hydrogen, halogen, a lower alkyl or alkoxy group, a di(loweralkyl)amino, nitro, cyano or acetamido group or, together with the phenyl nucleus to which they are attached, form a polycyclic aromatic ring, comprising reacting a tetrahydrothieno3,2-c!pyridine derivative of the formula: (IIa) or a derivative of its isomer, tetrahydro2,3-c!pyridine, with formaldehyde H-CHO and a phenol of the formula: (III).

Description

This invention relates to a new process for the preparation of tetrahydro - thieno[3,2 - c]pyridine derivatives of the formula: and their isomers, tetrahydrothieno[2,3 - c]pyridine derivatives of the formula: in which the hydroxyl group OH is at 2- or 4-position; R^ represents hydrogen, a C, _ alkyl or C, , alkoxy radical, l-o 1-b an aryl radical or an aralkyl radical; and R^ represent each hydrogen, halogen, a C, r alkyl or C. , alkoxy radical -L“b X~b a di-(C, , alkyl)-amino, nitro, cyano or acetamido radical or, together with the phenyl nucleus to which they are attached, form a polycyclic aromatic ring, R2 and R^ being at 3-, 4-, 5- or 6-position when OH is at 2-position and - 3 42831 being at 3- and 5-positions and other than hydrogen when OH is at 4-position.
Said compounds possess valuable therapeutic properties and, in addition, are useful intermediates in the preparation of derivatives used both in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. 4,5,6,7 - Tetrahydro - thieno[3,2 - c]pyridine derivatives have already been described, together with a process for their preparation, in French Patent Specification 2,215,948. Said process comprises condensing a compound of the formula: in which the radicals A and B represent each at least an atom or group selected from hydrogen, halogen, θ alkyl, CL , alkoxy, nitro and amino, with a halide of the formula 1-6 Hal-R in which Hal represents a halogen atom and K represents an optionally substituted alkyl, aryl or aralkyl radical, to give a pyridinium salt of the formula: and subsequently hydrogenating said pyridinium salt to give a derivative of the formula (1): - 4 42821 4,5,6,7 - Tetrahydro - thieno[2,3 - c]pyridine derivatives have also been prepared by an analogous process (French Patent Specification 2,315,274).
This process, however, is expensive and delicate in that it requires numerous difficult procedures.
In addition, use of this preparative process makes it difficult to obtain derivatives having on the nitrogen atom a benzyl radical carrying a hydroxyl group at 2- or 410 position. Indeed, to obtain derivatives of such type according to said process, it is necessary to proceed via the methoxylated derivative which is subsequently hydrolyzed.
Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a simple process for the preparation, in good yields, of derivatives of the formula (la) or their isomers of the formula (lb) in which the phenyl nucleus carries a hydroxyl group at 2- or 4-position.
The process of this invention comprises reacting a tetrahydrothieno[3,2 - c]pyridine derivative of the formula (Ila) 4282 or a derivative o£ its isomer, tetrahydro[2,3 - cJpyridine, of the formula: (lib) in which has the above-described meanings, with formaldehyde H—CHO and a phenol of the formula OH (III) in which R^ and R^ have the above-defined meanings, to give the desired derivative of the formula. (Ia) or (Ib).
The (Mannich type) reaction occurs at one of the ij ortho-positions of the phenol, when it is free. When both ortho-positions are occupied, the reaction occurs at the para-position.
Thus, in the case of phenols in which at least one of the positions ortho to OH is free, the Mannich reaction fc occurs at said free ortho-position: 42831 radicals Rg and Rg occupying optionally 3-, 4-, 5- or 6positions in the derivative of the formula (la) or (lb).
The same reaction occurs with unsubstituted phenol, and with polycyclic phenols such as β-naphthol, for example.
In the case of phenols carrying both substituents Rg and Rg at ortho-position to the OH radical, the reaction occurs at para-position: The condensation reaction of this invention is advantageously conducted in a medium consisting of an organic solvent such as ethanol, propanol or dioxan. The reaction is advantageously effeoted in the hot, at a temperature between 50°C and the boiling point of the solvent used, best results being obtained at temperatures 42831 -Ιοί about 80°C.
It is preferred to effect the reaction with constant stirring, during a period of time of 2—20 hours.
Formaldehyde or its different polymerization products, such as polyoxymethylene, may be used for the reaction.
Purification of the desired derivative is effected either by recrystallization from an organic solvent, or after conversion to a salt, by washing, drying and optionally recrystallization from an organic solvent.
The following non-limiting Examples are given to illustrate the present invention.

The aqueous phase is extracted with ether, made basic with concentrated ammonia and again extracted with methylene chloride. The organic extracts are washed with water, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is treated with 0.5 equivalent oxalic acid in ethanol solution. The resulting semi-oxalate is filtered and recrystallized from ethanol-dimethyl formamide (M.p.=170°C; yield: 38%).
