Synthesis of Novel Thioethers from Polyhalobutadienes and Thiols

Abstract

Substituted perchlorobutadienes were synthesized from the reactions of hexachloro-1,3-butadiene with some thiols in ethanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The oxidation products were obtained from the reactions of thioethers with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The structures of the new compounds were characterized by microanalysis and spectroscopic data.

Efficient Uncatalyzed Conversion of Primary and Secondary Thioamides into 1-Substituted, 5-Substituted, 1, 5-Disubstituted and Annulated Tetrazoles

Abstract

Unprecedented high-yield simple and mild conversion of primary aliphatic and aromatic thioamides into 5-substituted tetrazoles on treatment with a combination of tetrachlorosilane and sodium azide in refluxing acetonitrile has been achieved. Secondary acyclic, cyclic, and heterocyclic thioamides could also be transformed in high yields into 1-substituted, 1,5-disubstituted, or annulated tetrazoles under the same reaction condition.

Simple and Efficient Synthesis of 1,3-Dithioles with Pyrimidinylidene or Pyrazolylidene Substituents

Abstract

2-Pyrimidinylidene-1,3-dithioles or 2-pyrazolylidene-1,3-dithioles are prepared by a three-component condensation reaction of pyrimidine-tetraone or 1H-pyrazole-4,5-dione, carbon disulfide, and dialkyl acetylendicarboxylates in the presence of tributylphosphine.

Chiral Phosphoric Acid Catalyzed Asymmetric Friedel–Crafts Alkylation of Indoles with Nitroolefins

Abstract

Asymmetric Michael-type Friedel–Crafts (F–C) alkylations of indoles with nitroolefins catalyzed by a chiral H₈-BINOL-based phosphoric acid were investigated. The reactions took place very smoothly in the presence of only 5 mol-% of catalyst at room temperature to afford the desired F–C alkylation products in good yields and with moderate enantioselectivities.

Melamine-Trisulfonic-Acid-Catalyzed Trimethylsilylation of Alcohols and Phenols

Abstract

A highly convenient method for the trimethylsilylation of alcohols and phenols via treatment by hexamethyldisilazane in the presence of melamine trisulfonic acid as a catalyst has been developed. A wide variety of hydroxyl groups were selectively protected under solvent-free conditions.

A Convenient Synthesis of Thiazolidin-2-ones from Thiazolidine-2-thiones: Antibiotic Activity and Revisiting the Mechanism

Abstract

Various substituted thiazolidin-2-ones were synthesized from the corresponding thiazolidine-2-thiones with bromoethanol in ethanol with sodium ethoxide as a base. The optimal reaction conditions and mechanism were reinvestigated in detail. The bioassay indicated that (S)-4-isobutyl and (S)-4-benzylthiazolidin-2-ones show certain inhibitive activities against Candida albicans and Escherichia coli.

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Alkyl-Substituted Aryl Diphenylphosphinate Esters

Abstract

In this work, the reactions of diphenylphosphinic chloride, (C₆H₅)₂P(O)Cl, 1, with the sodium salts of sterically hindered phenol derivatives (2a-2j) were investigated. Novel alkyl-substituted aryl diphenyl phosphinate esters (C₆H₅)₂P(O)OAr (3-12) were obtained from these reactions. Satisfactory analytical and spectroscopic results were obtained for all the new compounds.
