Nucleoside und Nucleotide. Teil 15. Synthese von Desoxyribonucleosid-monophosphaten und -triphosphaten mit 2(1H)-Pyrimidinon, 2(1H)-Pyridinon und 4-Amino-2(1H)-pyridinon als Basen

Nucleosides and Nucleotide. Part 15. Synthesis of Deoxyribonucleoside Monophosphates and Triphosphates with 2(1H)-Pyrimidinone, 2(1H)-Pyridinone and 4-Amino-2(1H)-pyridinone as the Bases The phosphorylation of the modified nucleosides 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyrimidinone (M_d, 4 ), 4-amino-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone (Z_d, 6 ) and the synthesis of 1–2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl-2(1 H)-pyrimidinone-5′-O-triphosphate (pppM_d, 1 ), 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-O-triphosphate (pppII_d, 2 ), and 4-amino-1-(2′-deoxy-βD -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-O-triphosphate (pppZ_d, 3 ) are described. The nucleoside-5′-monophosphates pM_d (5) and pZ_d (7) were obtained by selective phosphorylation of M_d (4) and Z_d (6) , respectively, using phosphorylchloride in triethyl phosphate or in acetonitril. The reaction of pM_d (5) pII _d (8) or pZ_d (7) with morpholine in the presence of DCC led to the phosphoric amides 9, 10 and 11 , respectively, which were converted with tributylammonium pyrophosphate in dried dimethylsulfoxide to the nucleoside-5′triphosphates 1, 2 and 3 , respectively.     

Studies on DNA binding behavior of biologically active Cu(II) complexes of Schiff bases containing acyl pyrazolones and 2-ethanolamine

Pyrazolone derivatives (Z)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [PMP-EA] (1), (Z)-1-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [MCPMP-EA] (2), and (Z)-4-((2-hydroxyethylimino)(p-tolyl)methyl)-3-methyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one [PTPMP-EA] (3) have been synthesized and characterized. The molecular geometry of 2 has been determined by single-crystal X-ray study. These ligands exist in amine-one tautomeric form in the solid state. Three copper(II) complexes, [Cu(PMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (4), [Cu(MCPMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (5), and [Cu(PTPMP-EA)(H₂O)₂] (6), respectively, have been synthesized using these ligands and characterized by microanalytical data, molar conductivity, IR, UV–Visible, FAB-Mass, magnetic measurement, TG-DTA studies, and ESR spectral studies; Cu(II) is five-coordinated with [ML(H₂O)₂] composition. The interaction of the complexes with CT-DNA (calfthymus) was investigated using different methods. The results suggest that the copper complexes bind to DNA via intercalation and can quench the fluorescence intensity of EB bound to DNA.     

Nucleoside und Nucleotide. Teil 16. Verhalten von 1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyrimidinon-5′-triphosphat, 1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)pyridinon-5′-triphosphat und 4-Amino-1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinon-5′-triphosphat gegenüber DNA-Polymerase

Nucleosides and Nucleotides. Part 16. The Behaviour of 1-(2′-Deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyrimidinone-5′-triphosphate, 1-(2′-Deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl-2(1H))-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate and 4-Amino-1-(2′-desoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate towards DNA Polymerase The behaviour of nucleotide base analogs in the DNA synthesis in vitro was studied. The investigated nucleoside-5′-triphosphates 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyrimidinone-5′-triphosphate (pppM_d), 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate (pppII_d) and 4-amino-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate (pppZ_d) can be considered to be analogs of 2′-deoxy-cytidine-5′-triphosphate. However, their ability to undergo base pairing to the complementary guanine is decreased. When pppM_d, pppII_d or pppZ_d are substituted for pppC_d in the enzymatic synthesis of DNA by DNA polymerase no incorporation of these analogs is observed. They exhibit only a weak inhibition of the DNA synthesis. The mode of the inhibition is uncompetitive which shows that these nucleotide analogs cannot serve as substrates for the DNA polymerase.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [P(C₆H₅)₄][2,9-{N,N′-(2-NH? (C₅H₄N))}B₁₀H₈] [N(C₄H₉)₄]₂[B₁₀H₁₀] reacts with 2-aminopyridine forming a product mixture from which [2,9-{N,N′-(2-NH? (C₅H₄N))}B₁₀H₈]^? can be isolated by ion exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl(DEAE) cellulose. The crystal structure of [P(C₆H₅)₄][2,9-{N,N′-(2-NH? (C₅H₄N))}B₁₀H₈] (triclinic, space group P1 , a = 10.1103(9), b = 11.5665(9), c = 14.877(2) Å, α = 102.600(8), β = 107.567(8) und γ = 96.487(7)°, Z = 2) reveals the bonding of 2-NH₂-(C₅H₄N) via both N atoms to vicinal B atoms of the two square planes of the B₁₀ cluster (B2? N1 = 1,541(7) und B9? N2 = 1.505(7) Å) forming a five-membered ring.     

Condensed isoquinolines. 38*. Azolo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]isoquinolines from 2-(halomethyl)benzoic acid derivatives

On interacting 2-(chloromethyl)-, 2-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile or methyl 2-(bromomethyl)benzoate with 1-R-1H-imidazoles and 1-R-1H-benzimidazoles quaternary diazolium salts are formed, the heating of which with bases (K₂CO₃, Et₃N) led to the intramolecular acylation products, 1-alkyl-10-amino-1H-imidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-4-ium halides, 5-alkyl-6-amino-5H-benzimidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-12-ium halides, or 1-alkyl-1H-imidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-4-ium-10-olate halides.     

Unexpected formation of benzofuran derivatives in the C-amidoalkylation of p-cresol with 4-chloro-N-(2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)benzenesulfonamide*

The C-amidoalkylation of p-cresol with 4-chloro-N-(2,2-dichloro-2-phenylethylidene)benzenesulfon-amide in the presence of H₂SO₄, oleum, or a mixture of H₂SO₄ and P₄O₁₀ was studied for the first time. It was shown that the reaction not only leads to the targeted 4-chloro-N-[2,2-dichloro-1-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-2-phenylethyl]benzenesulfonamide but is also accompanied by unexpected formation of the heterocyclic derivatives 4-chloro-N-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-1-benzofuran-3-yl)benzenesulfonamide and 5-methyl-3-phenyl-2-benzofuran-2(3H)-one.     

Synthese von 4-Benzylthio- und 4-(Arylthio)-1,3-oxazol-5(2H)-onen

Synthesis of 4-(Benzylthio)-and 4-(Arylthio)-1,3-oxazole-5(2H)-ones Following a known procedure, 4-(benzylthio)-1,3-oxazol-5(2H)-one ( 4a ) was synthesized starting from sodium cyanodithioformate ( 1 ) and cyclohexanone (Scheme 1). The structure of the intermediate 4-(benzylthio)-1,3-thiazol-5(2H)-one ( 3a ) was established by X-ray crystallography. An alternative route was developed for the synthesis of 4-(arylthio)-1,3-oxazol-5(2H)-ones which are not accessible by the former reaction. Treatment of ethyl cyanoformate ( 5 ) with a thiophenol in the presence of catalytic amounts of Et₂NH and TiCl₄, followed by addition of a ketone and BF₃.Et₂O in a one-pot-reaction, gave 4f–i in low-to-fair yields (Scheme 3). Both synthetic pathways-complementary as for benzyl–S and aryl-S derivatives–seem to be limited with respect to variation of substituents of the ketone.     

Ringerweiterung von sechs- zu neungliedrigen Heterocyclen: Umsetzung von 3-(Dimethylamino)-2,2-dimethyl-2H-azirin mit 3,4-Dihydro-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-3-on-1,1-dioxiden

Ring Enlargement of Six- to Nine-Membered Heterocycles: Reaction of 3-(Dimethylamino)-2,2-dimethyl-2H-azirine with 3,4-Dihydro-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-3-one 1,1-Dioxides Reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-2,2-dimethyl-2H-azirine ( 1 ) and N-substituted 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-3-one 1,1-dioxides ( 4 ) in CHCl₃ yields 3-(dimethylamino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,2,5,7-benzothiatriazonin-6-one 1,1-dioxides 5 , a novel nine-membered heterocyclic system, by ring enlargement (Schemes 2 and 4). In refluxing MeOH, the heterocycle 5a rearranges to give the N-[1-methyl-1-(1,1-dioxo-4H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-3-yl)ethyl]-N′, N′-dimethylurea 10 . The three isomeric 2-(methylamino)benzenesufonamides 8,9 , and 11 (Scheme 3) are obtained by naBH₄ reduction of 5a and 10 , respectively. Mechanisms for the thermal isomerization 5a → 10 and the NaBH₄ reduction of 5a are proposed in Schemes 5 and 6.     

Über die Dicyanierung der 1,4-Diaminoanthrachinone und die Reaktivität der 1,4-Diamino-9,10-dihydroanthracen-2,3-dicarbonitrile gegenüber nucleophilen Reagenzien 3. Mitteilung über Arylierungen und Heterocyclisierungen von Anthrachinonsystemen

The Dicyanation of 1,4-Diaminoanthraquinones and the Reactivity of 1,4-Diamino-9,10-dioxo-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2,3-dicarbonitriles towards Nucleophilic Reagents The reaction of 1-amino-9, 10-dioxo-4-phenylamino-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-sulfonic acid ( 1 , R?C₆H₅) with cyanide in water yields a mixture of 1-amino-9,10-dioxo-4-phenylamino-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2-carbonitrile ( 3 , R ? C₆H₅) and 1-amino-4-(phenylamino)anthraquinone ( 4 , R ? C₆H₅) under the usual reaction conditions (Scheme 1). In dimethylsulfoxide, however, a second cyano group is introduced, and 1-amino-9,10-dioxo-4-phenylamino-9,10-dihydroanthracene-2,3-dicarbonitrile (7) is formed (Scheme 2). The cyano groups are very reactive towards nucleophiles. The cyano group in 2-position can be substituted by hydroxide and aliphatic amines (Schemes 5 and 6). The cyano group in 3-position can be eliminated by aliphatic amines and hydrazine (Scheme 7). Nucleophilic attack at the cyano C-atom of the 2-cyano group by suitable reagents leads to ring formation, yielding e.g. 2-(Δ²-1, 3-oxazolin-2-yl)-, 2-(benz[d]imidazol-2-yl)- and 2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)anthraquinones (Schemes 8 and 10).     

Synthesis and characterization of novel 2-(1-benzyl-3-[4-fluorophenyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-7-fluoro-4H-chromen-4-one derivatives

Novel 1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes 3a to 3e were synthesized via Vilsmeier-Haack reaction of the appropriate 1-benzyl-2-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethylidene)hydrazines, derived from 4-fluoroacetophenone 1 with substituted 2-benzylhydrazines 2a to 2e . The base catalyzed condensation of 1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes 3a to 3e with 1-(4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone 4 gave (E)-3-(1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1-(4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-ones 5a to 5e . On cyclization with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/I₂, compounds 5a to 5e gave 2-(1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-7-fluoro-4H-chromen-4-ones 6a to 6e . Structures of all novel compounds were confirmed by infrared (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C NMR), and mass spectral data. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities.     

Trifluoromethyl Sulfones and Perfluoroalkanesulfonamides of the Azole Series

2-Phenyl-4-trifluoromethylsulfonylmethyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole was synthesized from 4-bromo-methyl-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole and sodium trifluoromethanesulfinate CF₃SO₂Na. 1(2)-Ethyl-4-nitro-1(2)H-1,2,3-triazoles and 4-nitro-2-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole were reduced to the corresponding amines. Intermediate 1,2-bis(1-ethyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)diazene 1-oxide exists as a mixture of syn and anti isomers, the former being stabilized via formation of a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond. The reduction of 2-ethyl-4-nitro-2H-1,2,3-triazole in the presence of HCl afforded the target 4-amino-2-ethyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole and also 4-amino-5-chloro-2-ethyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole. Treatment of alkyl-substituted 4-amino-1,2,3-triazoles with trifluoromethanesulfonyl chloride and pentafluoroethanesulfonyl chloride gave N-triazolyl-substituted trifluoromethane- and pentafluoroethanesulfonamides and -imides.     

Novel Synthesis of Agaritine,a 4-Hydrazinobenzyl-Alcohol Derivative Occurring in Agaricaceae

The 4-hydrazinobenzyl alcohol ( 3 was prepared (58%)) by diiobutylaluminiumhydride reduction of methyl 4-hydrazinobenzoate ( 4 ), whereas LiA1H₄ or LiBh₄ reduction of 4 proceeded further to yield (via intermediate 3 ) (4-tolyl)hydrazine ( 5 ). The alcohol 3 was stable under O₂-free conditions and exhibited no tendency to eliminate H₂O, neither thermally nor with H⁺ catalysis. Oxidation of 3 with SeO₂ yielded 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzine-diazonium ion ( 8 ), identified by its azo coupling product 9 with 2-naphthol. Condensation of 3 with 1-benzyl 5-Hydrogen N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L-glutamate ( 10 ) in presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide afforded 81% of N²-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L- glutamic acid 1-(benzyl-ester) 5-{2-[4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]hydrazide} ( 11 ) which upon controlled hydrogenolysis (quinoline-sulfur-poisoned Pd/C catalyst) gave 82% of L-Glutamic acid 5-{2-[4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl] hydrazide} ( 1 ), i. e. agaritine, a metabolite of Agaricus bisporus. Without poisoning of the catalyst, hydrogenolysis of ( 11 ) yielded L-glutamic acid 5-[2-(4-tolyl)hydrazide] ( 12 ).     

Architecture of the rings of 5-arylidenerhodanine derivatives versus P-gp inhibition

5-Arylidene derivatives of rhodanine show various biological activities. The new crystal structures of five derivatives investigated towards ABCB1 efflux pump modulation are reported, namely, 2-[5-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ylmethylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)acetic acid dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate, C₁₈H₁₃NO₃S₂·C₂H₆OS ( 1 ), 4-[5-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ylmethylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl)butanoic acid, C₂₀H₁₇NO₃S₂ ( 2 ), 5-[4-(benzyloxy)benzylidene]-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one, C₁₇H₁₃NO₂S₂ ( 3 ), 4-{5-[4-(benzyloxy)benzylidene]-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-3-yl}butanoic acid, C₂₁H₁₉NO₄S₂ ( 4 ), and 5-[4-(diphenylamino)benzylidene]-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one, C₂₂H₁₆N₂OS₂ ( 5 ). Compounds 1 and 3 – 5 crystallize in the triclinic space group P, while 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n, where the biphenyl moiety is observed in two positions (A and B). Two molecules are present in the asymmetric unit of 5 and, for the other four compounds, there is only one molecule; moreover, 1 crystallizes with one dimethyl sulfoxide molecule. The packing of the molecules containing a carboxyl group ( 1 , 2 and 4 ) is determined by O—H…O hydrogen bonds, while in the other two compounds ( 3 and 5 ), the packing is determined by N—H…O hydrogen bonds. Additionally, induced-fit docking studies have been performed for the active compounds to investigate their putative binding mode inside the human glycoprotein P (P-gp) binding pocket.

在不同反应条件下反应得到了两种1,2,3-三唑衍生物的配合物[Co（H₂O）₆][Co（L¹）₃]₂·4H₂O（1）和Cu（L²）₂（2）（HL¹=5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid;HL²=1-（4-iodophenyl）-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid）。通过X射线单晶衍射和红外光谱确定了晶体结构,同时对配合物1和2进行了表面作用分析（Hirshfeld surface analysis）,在二维指纹图谱中可以清楚的看到配合物中的主要分子间作用。     

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance study of a new ring-chain tautomerism of some pyridazine derivatives

The ¹³C NMR spectra of a number of pyridazine derivatives have been recorded in DMSO-d₆ solution and analysed. Examination of the most diagnostic resonances, with particular emphasis on those arising from the pyridazine ring system, enabled the ready establishment of the presence of a ring-chain tautomerism in 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylate, 5-(o-aminophenylcarbamoyl)-3,6,-dimethylpyridazine-4-carboxylic acid and 5-(2-amino-1,2-dicyanovinylenecarbamoyl)pyridazine-4-carboxylic acid. This gave rise to 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid, methyl 3′,4′-dihydro-3′oxospiro[pyridazine-5(2H),2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylate, 3′,4′-dihydro-3′-oxo-3,6-dimethylspiro[pyridazine-5(2H), 2′(1′H)-quinoxaline]-4-carboxylic acid and 5-oxo-2,3-dicyano-1,4,8,9-tetraazaspiro[5.5]undeca-2,7,10-triene-11-carboxylic acid, respectively.     

Nucleoside und Nucleotide. Teil 20. Synthese von Desoxyribooligonucleotiden nach der Diester- und Triestermethode mit 2(1H)-Pyrimidinon als Base

Part 20, Synthesis of Desoxyribooligonucleotides According to the Diester and Triester Method with 2(1H)-Pyrimidinone as Base The syntheses of the dinucleosidemonophosphate 1-(2′-deoxy-b?-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyrimidinon-(3′-5′)-2′-deoxycytidine (M_dpC_d; 4 ) and the trinucleoside-diphosphate thymidyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-b?-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)pyrimidinon (T_dpT_dpM_d; 1 ) are described, Compound 1 was synthesized by different variants of the triester method, and 4 by the diester method as well as the triester method.     

Coordination behavior of chromone Schiff bases towards the [ReVO]3+ and [ReI(CO)3]+ cores

Herein, we describe the coordination behavior of chromone Schiff bases towards [Re^VO]³⁺ and [Re^I(CO)₃]⁺. The reaction between 2-(2-thiolphenyliminomethyl)-4H-chromen-4-one (Htch) and [Re(CO)₅Cl] led to fac-[Re(CO)₃(bsch)Cl] (1) (bsch = 2-benzothiazole-4H-chromen-4-one). The square pyramidal [ReO(Hns)] (2) {H₂ns=bis-[(2-phenylthiolate)iminomethyl]-methyl-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one} and octahedral [ReO(OCH₃)(PPh₃)(Huch)] (3) complexes were isolated from reactions of trans-[Re^VOBr₃(PPh₃)₂] with Htch and H₃uch [(5Z)-5-((4-hydroxy-2-methoxy-2H-chromen-3-yl)methyleneamino)-6-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrimidine-2,4(1H, 3H)-dione], respectively. The chromone Schiff bases and their metal complexes were fully characterized via NMR-, IR- and UV–Vis spectroscopy, single crystal XRD analysis and conductivity measurements. In addition, DFT studies were conducted to compare selected optimized and experimental parameters of the complexes.     

An efficient and regioselective synthesis of 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles] from 4-alkoxy-1,1,1-trihaloalk-3-en-2-ones

Abstract  

This work describes the regioselective synthesis of two new series of 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-4,5-dihydro-5-hydroxy-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles], where the 3-substituents are H, Me, C₆H₅, 4-FC₆H₄, 4-ClC₆H₄, 4-BrC₆H₄, 4-NO₂C₆H₄, 4,4′-BiPh, and 2-furyl, in a one-pot methodology with ethanol as solvent, from the reaction of 4-alkoxy-4-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-1,1,1-trihaloalk-3-en-2-ones with oxalyldihydrazide (51–89%). Complementarily, the dehydration reactions of five examples of the described oxalylbispyrazolines are also reported, which furnished the respective 1,1′-oxalylbis[3-(alkyl/aryl/heteroaryl)-5-(trihalomethyl)-1H-pyrazoles] in 53–78% yields without the two C(O)–N bond cleavages.     

Novel Copolymers of Styrene. 15. Phenoxy Ring-Substituted Methyl 2-Cyano-3-Phenyl-2-Propenoates

Electrophilic trisubstituted ethylenes, phenoxy ring-substituted methyl 2-cyano-3-phenyl-2-propenoates, RPhCH=C(CN)CO₂CH₃, where R is 4-(4-BrC₆H₅O), 2-(4-ClC₆H₅O), 3-(4-ClC₆H₅O), 4-(3-ClC₆H₅O), 4-(4-ClC₆H₅O), 4-(4-FC₆H₅O), 2-(3-CH₃OC₆H₅O), 2-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O), 3-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O), 4-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O), 3-(4-CH₃C₆H₅O) were prepared and copolymerized with styrene. The monomers were synthesized by the piperidine catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation of phenoxy ring-substituted benzaldehydes and methyl cyanoacetate, and characterized by CHN analysis, IR, ¹H and ¹³C-NMR. All the ethylenes were copolymerized with styrene (M₁) in solution with radical initiation (ABCN) at 70°C. The compositions of the copolymers were calculated from nitrogen analysis and the structures were analyzed by IR, ¹H and ¹³C-NMR. The order of relative reactivity (1/r₁) for the monomers is 4-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O) (6.07) > 3-(4-ClC₆H₅O) (3.38) > 3-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O) (2.78) > 4-(3-ClC₆H₅O) (2.77) > 2-(4-ClC₆H₅O) (2.29) > 3-(4-CH₃C₆H₅O) (1.98) > 4-(4-FC₆H₅O) (1.92) > 4-(4-ClC₆H₅O) (1.89) > 2-(3-CH₃OC₆H₅O) (1.39) > 2-(4-CH₃OC₆H₅O) (0.90) > 4-(4-BrC₆H₅O) (0.77). Relatively high T_g of the copolymers in comparison with that of polystyrene indicates a decrease in chain mobility of the copolymer due to the high dipolar character of the trisubstituted ethylene monomer unit. Decomposition of the copolymers in nitrogen occurred in two steps, first in the 200-500°C range with residue (2.5-8.0% wt), which then decomposed in the 500-800°C range.     

Tetrazole compounds. 10. Novel tetrazolylindoles by fischer indolization of substituted tetrazolylacetaldehyde phenylhydrazones

The acid-catalyzed reaction of substituted phenylhydrazines 1 with 1-aryl-5-(2-dimethylaminovinyl)-1H-tetrazoles 2 afforded (1-aryl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)acetaldehyde phenylhydrazones 3 which on heating in acetic acid/perchloric acid underwent a Fischer indolization to give substituted 3-(1-aryl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-indoles 4a-k. Indoles of this type are also formed on subjecting 1 and 2 directly to indolization conditions; thus, starting from phenylhydrazine the tetrazolylindoles 41-s were obtained by a one-pot procedure. Indolization of corresponding N_α-methylphenylhydrazones 5 resulted in 1-methyl-3-(1-aryl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)indoles 6 .
