A three-step method for the synthesis of 2-(hetero)aryl-5-(trimethylsilylethynyl)oxazoles is described. Easily accessible bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene and acrylic acid derivatives are used as starting materials for the preparation of mono- and disubstituted 5-(trimethylsilyl)pent-1-en-4-yn-3-ones. Oxidative phthalimidoaziridination of these enynones provides the key 2-acyl-1-phthalimidoaziridines that are further utilized in the thermal expansion of the three-membered ring to furnish the target functionalizable oxazoles.

Two new arylpiperazine derivatives, the 4-(1-piperazinyl)thieno- and -furopyridine ring systems, have been synthesized and appended via tetramethylene chains to various imide rings.Target compounds from each series were found to have significant activity in the blockade of apomorphine stereotypy and apomorphine-induced climbing, the Sidman avoidance response, and the conditioned avoidance response.In addition, while potent affinity for serotonin 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptors was observed for both the thieno- and furopyridine derivatives,the interaction of these molecules with the dopamine D2 receptor was weak.Electrophysiological studies of the lead prototypes from each series, involving compounds 22 and 33, indicate these two molecules have distinctively different effects on dopamine neurons in areas A9 and A10.Despite the similarity these molecules share in their behavioral indices of antipsychotic acivity, it is likely that the thieno- and furopyridine rings employ different mechanisms to achieve this convergence of biological effects.
