Pyrazolotriazines: Biological activities, synthetic strategies and recent developments

Heterocyclic compounds create an important class of molecules that demonstrates various chemical spaces for the definition of effective medicines. Many N-heterocycles display numerous biological activities. Among condensed heterocycles, pyrazolotriazine derivatives have received the attention of researchers owing to the extensive spectrum of biological activities. The reactivity of identified compounds was similar to the free azoles and triazines. The pyrazolotriazine scaffold exhibited antiasthma, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antithrombogenic activity and showed activity for major depression and pathological anxiety. Pyrazolotriazine derivatives also exhibited antibacterial, anticancer, antimetabolites, antidiabetic, antiamoebic, anticonvulsant, antiproliferative activity, human carbonic anhydrase inhibition, cyclin-dependent kinase 2 inhibition, tyrosinase and urease inhibition, MAO-B inhibition, TTK inhibition, thymidine phosphorylase inhibition, tubulin polymerization inhibition, protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibition, GABA_A agonistic activity, hCRF1 receptor antagonistic activity, and CGRP receptor antagonistic activity. This paper structurally categorized various pyrazolotriazines to isomeric classes into six groups that containing pyrazolo [1,5-d] [1,2,4] triazine, pyrazolo [5,1-c] [1,2,4] triazine, pyrazolo [3,4-e] [1,2,4] triazine, pyrazolo [4,3-e] [1,2,4] triazines, pyrazolo [1,5-a] [1,3,5] triazine, and pyrazolo [3,4-d] [1,2,3] triazine and expressed biological activity, the synthetic procedures for each class of pyrazolotriazines, structure-activity relationship and their mechanism of action. Generally, this review summarily indicated the past and present studies about the discovery of new lead compounds with good biological activity.

Synthesis and crystal structures of 7,8-bromo (dibromo)-3-tert-butylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines

Single crystal structures in a series of 7-bromo-, 8-bromo-, and 7,8-dibromo-3-tert-butylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazin-4(1H)-ones have been investigated by X-ray diffraction. Novel 7-bromo- and 7,8-dibromo-3-tert-butylpyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]triazines were synthesized by reduction of triazine carbonyl with dehydrative aromatization in acidic media, and their XRD structural features were compared with that of the 4-oxo analogs. The lengths and bond angles and the packing of molecules in crystals have been considered. Non-valence interactions for some of the studied compounds were observed. Correlations between the presence of bromine atoms at different positions and structural features are determined.
