Reaction of N-nitro-O-(4-nitrophenyl)hydroxylamine with phosphorus pentoxide in the presence of nitriles. New method for the generation of aryloxenium ion

A reaction of N-nitro-O-(4-nitrophenyl)hydroxylamine with nitriles RCN (R = Me, Et, Ph) in the presence of P₄O₁₀ in excess amount at 0 °C leads to the formation of 2-R-5-nitro-1,3-benzoxazoles. The reaction presumably takes place through the intermediate (phenoxy)oxodiazonium ion [NO₂C₆H₄O-N=N=O]⁺, which eliminates an N₂O molecule to form the aryloxenium ion [NO₂C₆H₄O]⁺. The latter reacts with nitriles RCN at the ortho-carbon atom of the phenyl ring giving 2-R-5-nitro-1,3-benzoxazoles.

In the absence of potassium carbonate alongside the mentioned linear products 8-iodo-methyl-1-R-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e] pyrimidin-9-ium iodides of an angular structure have been obtained.     

Synthesis and dehydration reaction of 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphth-2-ol: possible intermediate of Lasofoxifene

The paper deals with a simple and sufficient synthesis of key precursor of Lasofoxifene. The 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalene was prepared by a sequence of five reactions steps: first 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalene was prepared (70%), and this was quantitatively epoxidized to 7b-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-5-methoxy-1a,2,3,7b-tetrahydronaphtho[1,2-b]oxirene. Catalytic (ZnI₂) isomerization of the epoxide gave 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-one (75%). Its subsequent reaction with phenylmagnesium bromide gave 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthol (87%). Acid-catalysed dehydration of this alcohol by polyphosphoric acid (25°C) provides 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-1,4-dihydronaphthalene (80%). Dehydration in the system of acetic anhydride/polyphosphoric acid gives 1-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-3,4-dihydronaphthalene (66%).

A new approach was developed to the preparation of perihydroxyketone of naphthalene series containing a specific functional substituent in the ortho-position with respect to hydroxy group. The effect was revealed of an acetyl group in the position 9 of 7-methoxy-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[h]chromen-2-one on the reaction of this compound with aliphatic amines and hydrazine hydrate. 9-Methoxy-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-3H-benzo[de]pyrido[3,2,1-if]cinnolin-3-one [9-methyl-6-methoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-10,10a-diazapyren-1-one] was obtained, a new bis-peri-fused heteroaromatic system.

The preparation of the η⁴-4-2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-1,4-benzoquinonecomplex [CO(C₅Me₅)(C₁₀H₁₂O₂)] (I) is reported. Complex I undergoesreversible protonation to yield the 2-6-η-4-hydroxy-1-oxo-2,3,5,6-tetramethylcyclohexadienyl complex [Co(C₅Me₅)(C₁₀H₁₃O₂)BF₄ (II) and diprotonation to yield the η⁶-6-1,4-dihydroxy-2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzene complex [Co(C₅Me₅)(C₁₀H₁₄O₂)] (BF₄)₂ (III). Methylation of complex I with MeI/AgPF₆ gives the 26-η-4-methoxy-1-oxo-2,3,5,6-tetramethylcyclohexadienyl complex [Co(C₅Me₅)(C₁₁H₁₅O₂])PF₆ (IV).

The stereoisomeric (E)- and (Z)-oximes of 3,4-dimethyl-3-penten-2-one were prepared and nitrosated with butyl nitrite in methanol. The (E)-oxime gave 3,3,4,5-tetramethyl-3H-pyrazole 1,2-dioxide in nearly quantitative yield, while the (Z)-oxime reacted less readily, giving a lower yield of the same product, with five other products identified as isoxazoline derivatives. Three of these were 4-hydroxy-, 4-methoxy-, and 4-nitro-3,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-isoxazoline. The fourth was the O-(3,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-isoxazolin-4-yl) derivative of the starting (Z)-oxime, and the fifth was 4-methylene-3,5,5-trimethyl-2-isoxazoline.     

Synthesis of arylamino-substituted pyrazolo[3,4-d][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidinones,pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidinones,and their thermal isomerization

The reaction of 1-(4-oxo-1-R-5H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6-yl)-4-arylthiosemicarbazides with methyl iodide gave rise to 1,2,4-triazolo-pyrazolopyrimidinones of linear structure, and with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide the products had angular and linear structure. The heating of compounds obtained higher than their melting point resulted in their isomerization into 7-aryl-amino-1-R-1,8-dihydro-4H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-4-ones.     

Syntheses and structures of azol-1-yl derivatives of nitronyl and imino nitroxides

2-(Pyrazol-1-yl)-, 2-(imidazol-1-yl)-, 2-([1,2,4]triazol-1-yl)-, and 2-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-3-oxide-1-oxyl were prepared by reactions of 2-bromo-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-3-oxide-1-oxyl (NIT-Br) with the corresponding sodium azolides. In prepared 2-(azol-1-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-3-oxide-1-oxyls, the NIT-N_Het bond is readily hydrolyzed. Reduction of imidazole-3-oxide-1-oxyls leads to corresponding 2-(azol-1-yl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole-1-oxyls, which are much more stable against hydrolysis. The structures of spin-labeled imidazoles, [1,2,4]triazoles and benzotriazoles are confirmed by X-ray analysis, showing that the paramagnetic molecules form packings with motifs from centrosymmetric dimers to topologically linear chains.     

Oxidative coupling of alkynes mediated by nitroxyl radicals under Sonogashira conditions and Pd-free catalytic approach to stable radicals of 3-imidazoline family with triple bonds

In the presence of Pd catalyst, 3-imidazoline nitroxyl radicals promote oxidative coupling (dimerization) of terminal alkynes even in the absence of Cu(II) additives. On the other hand, the Pd-free CuI-PPh₃-K₂CO₃-DMF catalytic system leads to the efficient cross-coupling of 1-hydroxy-4-[2-(p-iodophenyl)vinyl]-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-imidazoline-3-oxide with terminal aryl- and hetarylacetylenes with the formation of 4-[2-(aryl/hetarylethynyl)phenyl)vinyl]-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-imidazoline-3-oxide-1-oxyls in 70-75% yields.

The structure of 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,7,7-trimethyl-2,4,6,7,8,9-hexahydropyrazolo[3,4-b]quinolin-5-one was proved by the X-ray diffraction data.
