Reaction of 2-chloro-3-(4-N,N-dimethylaminoanilino)-1,4-naphthoquinone with cyclic amines (piperidine,morpholine, and pyrrolidine)

It was shown that the reaction of 2-chloro-3-(4-N,N-dimethylaminoanilino)-1,4-naphthoquinone with piperidine in the absence of a solvent gives not only a product of replacement of the chlorine atom by a piperidino group, 3-(4-N,N-dimethylaminoanilino)-2-piperidino-1,4-naphthoquinone, but also 2-(4-N,N-dimethylaminoanilino)-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-(4-N,N-dimethylaminoanilino-2-piperidino)-1,4-naphthoquinone. The latter compounds are the only reaction products formed in dimethyl sulfoxide. The reaction with morpholine occurs in a similar way, whereas that with pyrrolidine gives only a product of replacement of the chlorine atom by hydrogen.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis,characterization and luminescence of the tetranuclear gold cluster: [Au4{7,8-(PPh2)2-7,8-C2B9H10}2(PPh3)2]

A tetranuclear gold cluster has been synthesized by the reaction of [Au(PPh₃)NO₃] with the closo carborane diphosphine 1,2-(PPh₂)₂-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀ in THF, and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H and ¹³C?NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure determination. The cluster crystallizes in the triclinic Pī, a?=?15.118(8)?Å, b?=?16.057(9)?Å, c?=?24.284(13)?Å, α?=?80.822(9)°, β?=?79.624(8)°, γ?=?81.938(8)°, Z?=?2, R ₁?=?0.0626, wR ₂?=?0.1894. A single crystal structure determination showed that four gold atoms form a tetrahedral framework. Among these four gold atoms, two were chelated by two nido carborane diphosphine [7,8-(PPh₂)₂-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₀]^? anions coming from the degradation of the initial closo ligand 1,2-(PPh₂)₂-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀, while the other two were ligated to two PPh₃ groups. The luminescence of this cluster was also investigated in dichloromethane solution at room temperature.     

Synthesis of benzo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">g</Emphasis>]quinoline-5,10-diones

Addition of HCl to 2-amino-3-(4-methyl-3-oxopentynyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone in CHCl₃ at 20 °C is followed by its cyclization to 4-chloro-2-isopropylbenzo[g]quinoline-5,10-dione. Chlorine atom in this compound can be easily replaced by dialkylamino group upon treatment with secondary amines. 4-Dialkylamino-2-isopropylbenzo[g]quinoline-5,10-dione is also formed by the direct reaction of the starting ketone with secondary amines. Syntheses of 2-amino-3-(4-methyl-3-oxopentynyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone from 2-bromo-and 2-amino-3-iodo-1,4-naphthoquinones are also described. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Chemistry of naphthazarin derivatives 13. Conformational analysis of 3-(alk-1-enyl)-2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones by quantum chemistry methods

The molecular structures of various conformers of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone; 3-(alk-1-enyl)-2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones; 2,5,8-trihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone; and 3-(alk-1-enyl)-2,5,8-trihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones were studied by density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31(d), B3LYP/6-31(d, p)) and ab initio (MP2/6-31G, MP2/6-31(d)) methods. The strengths of the intramolecular hydrogen bonds formed by the β-hydroxy group with the O atom at C(1) and with the double bond π-electrons of the alkenyl substituents in the quinonoid rings were estimated. The compounds studied mainly exist as rotamers with the former-type hydrogen bonds. The splitting of the quinonoid bands of the stretching vibrations of the β-hydroxy group in the IR spectra of 3-(alk-1-enyl)-2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones and 3-(alk-1-enyl)-2,5,8-trihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones in hexane solutions is due to the existence of rotamers formed upon internal rotation of the alkenyl substituent.

Abstract

of 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carbohydrazide (4) with substituted phenyl isothiocyanates (5) in ethanol under reflux for 30 min gave thiosemicarbazide derivatives 6, which on cyclization in 2N NaOH under refluxing conditions for 1 h resulted in 3-(5-mercapto- 4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-one (7). Alternatively, 7 could also be prepared from following sequence of reactions, i.e., 4 → 8 → 7. In another sequence of reactions, condensation of 7 with chloroacetic acid in dimethylformamide (DMF) and K₂CO₃ as a mild base at 120 °C for 2 h resulted in 2-((5-(1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,8-naphthyridin-3-yl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)sulfanyl)acetic acid (10). The latter, on reaction with substituted o-phenylenediamine (11) in 6N HCl for 4 h yielded 3-(5-((1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)methylthio)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-one (12). Alternatively, 12 could also be prepared by reacting 7 with 13 in DMF and K₂CO₃ as a mild base at 120 °C for 2 h, followed by oxidation with H₂O₂ resulting in the corresponding sulfonyl derivatives 14.

Vibrational frequencies and force constants of N2O4 in complexes with molecules of different solvents determined by Raman spectra andAb initio calculation

The Raman spectra of N₂O₄ solutions in organic solvents have been recorded. The frequencies ofv ₁,v ₂, andv ₃ bands of N₂O₄ increase with increasing solvent electron-donor properties. Especially large changes ofv ₃ N-N stretching band have been observed (254.5 cm^–1 in n-hexane, 276.5 cm^–1 in 1,4-dioxane). The ab initio calculations have shown that the interaction between N₂O₄ and electron-donor molecules causes an increase of N-N and N-O stretching and O-N-O bending force constants of N₂O₄ in agreement with the results of Raman study.     

Ion-pair extraction of transition metal cations from aqueous media using novel N2O2-macrocyclic crown ligands

Three new macrocyclic crown ether ligands containing nitrogen–oxygen donor atoms were designed and synthesized from 1,4-bis(2′-formylphenyl)-1,4-dioxabutane and 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine. Ion-pair extraction of metal picrates such as Ag⁺, Hg²⁺, Cd²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, and Pb²⁺ from aqueous phase to the organic phase was carried out using the novel ligands. The solvent effect over the metal picrate extractions was investigated at 25 ± 0.1 °C by using UV–visible spectrometry. The extractability and the values of the extraction constants (log K_ex) were determined for the extracted complexes.

Synthesis of the dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonist (+)-PHNO via supercritical fluid chromatography: preliminary PET imaging study with [3-C]-(+)PHNO

Carbon-11 labeled (+)-4-[1-¹¹C]propyl-3,4,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-2H-naphtho[1,2-b][1,4]oxazin-9-ol ([1-¹¹C]-(+)-PHNO) is a dopamine D₃-preferring agonist radiopharmaceutical used for medical imaging by positron emission tomography (PET). We report the synthesis of (+)-PHNO using supercritical fluid chromatography for enantiomeric resolution of its norpropyl derivative, HNO, followed by propylation. (+)-HNO was used to prepare the radiolabeling precursor, (+)-trans-4-acetyl-9-triisopropylsilyloxy-2,3,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-4H-naphth[1,2b][1,4]oxazine, in 12 steps. Modifications to the labeling procedure were made to ensure consistent preparation of [3-¹¹C]-(+)-PHNO via [¹¹C]CH₃I. A preliminary PET imaging study was carried out with this tracer in an attempt to image dopamine receptors in brown adipose tissue (brown fat) in vivo.     

Aminodefluorination of 2-X-pentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinones (X = NHBu, NEt2, and OMe)

Aminodefluorination of 2-n-butylamino- and 2-diethylaminopentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone by alkylamines HNR¹R² (NR¹R² = NHEt, NHⁿBu and NEt₂) occurs at the 6- or 8-position and further, accordingly, at the 8- or at one of the 5- and 6-sites. The isomer ratio changes significantly in favor of a β-replacement product with solvent variation in the sequence: toluene < 1,4-dioxane < DMSO. n-Butylaminodefluorination of 2-methoxypentafluoro-1,4-naphthoquinone gives mixtures of fluorine substitution products both on the benzene and quinone rings.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of four Pd(II) complexes containing nido or closo carborane diphosphine ligands

Three Pd(II) complexes [Pd₂(μ-Cl)₂{7,8-(PPh₂)₂-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₀}₂] · 0.25CH₂Cl₂ (1), [Pd{7,8-(PPh₂)₂-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₀}₂] · 4CHCl₃ (2) and [PdCl₂(1,2-(PPh₂)₂-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀)] (3) have been synthesized by the reactions of 1,2-(PPh₂)₂-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀ with PdCl₂ in acetonitrile, cyanophenyl and dichloromethane, respectively. A fourth complex, [PdI₂(1,2-(PPh₂)₂-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀)] (4), was obtained by a ligand exchange reaction through the substitution of the Cl⁻ of complex 3 with I⁻. All four complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and X-ray structure determination. Single crystal X-ray determination showed that the carborane cage, nido for 1, 2 and closo for 3, 4, was coordinated bidentately to the Pd atom through the two P atoms, and the geometry at the Pd atom was square-planar in all the complexes.     

Synthesis and metal-ion binding properties of new N2S4- and N2S5-donor macrocycles

Synthetic procedures for new N₂S₄- and N₂S₅-donor macrocycles (2 and 4) were given.

Determination of Four Active Oxygen Species Such as H2O2, •OH, •O2 −, and 1O2 by Luminol and CLA-Chemiluminescence Methods and Evaluation of Antioxidative Effects of Hydroxybenzoic Acids

Abstract

Simple and rapid chemiluminescence (CL) assays for H₂O₂, ?OH, ?O₂ ^? and ¹O₂ using 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-1,4-phthalazinedione (luminol) or 2-methyl-6-phenyl-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-α]pyrazin-3-one (CLA) as CL reagents were developed. The means of the intra-assay relative standard deviations of ten replicate measurements of H₂O₂ (25-120 μM), ?OH generated from Fe(II) ion (2.5-10 μM) in the presence of 980 μM H₂O₂, ?O₂ ^? generated from hypoxanthine (HX) (7-50 μM) in the presence of 9 × 10^?3 units xanthine oxidase (XO) and ¹O₂ generated from NaOCl (3-12 mM) in the presence of 97.6 μM H₂O₂ were found to be 4.0%, 2.8%, 2.4% and 8.7%, respectively. To validate the proposed methods, the scavenging abilities of three standard antioxidative compounds, such as L-ascorbic acid, (±)-α-tocopherol and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were examined for four active oxygen species and compared with those by anelectron spin resonance (ESR) spin-trapping method. In addition, the CL methods were also applied to establish the relationships between the decrease of CL intensity and the structures as well as redox characters of syringic acid, 3-hydroxybenzoic acid, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid. From the obtained results, the scavenging effects to H₂O₂, ?OH, ?O₂ ^? and ¹O₂ of other dihydroxybenzoic acids were also evaluated.     

The mass spectral fragmentation of some 2,3-dihydro-5-trifluoromethyl-7-(p-R-phenyl)-1,4-diazepines

Summary Electron impact mass spectra of seven 2,3-dihydro-5-trifluoromethyl/methyl-7-(p-R-phenyl)-1,4-diazepinesR=H, CH₃, OCH₃, CF₃, Cl, Br) have been recorded and are discussed. These systems dissociate by scission of the C₂-C₃ bond followed by loss of H^. to give the [M-H]⁺ ion as the base peak. The fragmentation behaviour has been investigated using metastable scanning techniques and accurate mass measurements. The origin of some characteristic fragment ions is discussed.
