Kinetic study on the synthesis of some benzo[g]quinoxalin-2(1H)-one derivatives

Some novel 3-substituted benzoquinoxalinones [R = H, CH₃, C₆H₅, (CH₂)₂COOH] were synthesized by the Hinsberg reaction between 2,3-diaminonaphthalene and several α-dicarbonyl compounds. The course of the reactions was followed by the second uv/visible Derivative Spectroscopy Method at different pH values (-0.89 to 9.0) and also in organic solvents at 25°. The compound non-substituted at C-3 was the only one that could be obtained in every media in good yields (80%), having pseudo first-order anelation rate constants of relative high values (1 × 10^?1 — 1 × 10^?2 min^?1). On the other hand, only methanol could be used as the organic solvent for the synthesis of all of the other compounds; aqueous media always provided better results. In the 3-methyl derivative, as well as in the 3-phenyl derivative the change of the reaction pH medium modified the stoichiometry of the anelation, turning a non-quantitative reaction into a quantitative one. This is explained by a change in the mechanism of the reaction on going to lower hydrogen concentrations, a fact that was supported by complementary quantitative hptlc experiments. In general, pseudo first-order rate constants for the anelation were one or two logarithmic units lower than those of the non-substituted compound (R_C-3 = H), but yields were above 60% in every case. A reaction scheme is presented which includes a probable mechanism.     

Synthesis of [D-alanine, 4'-azido-3',5'-ditritio-L-phenylalanine, norvaline4[alpha-melanotropin as a 'photoaffinity probe' for hormone-receptor interactions (author's transl)]

Synthesis of [D -alanine¹, 4′-azido-3′, 5′-ditritio-L -phenylalanine², norvaline⁴]α-melanotropin as a ‘photoaffinity probe’ for hormone-receptor interactions. The synthesis of an α-MSH derivative containing 4′-azido-3′,5′-ditritio-L -phenylalanine is described: Ac · D -Ala-Pap(³H₂)-Ser-Nva-Glu-His-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys-Pro-Val · NH₂. This hormone analogue is being used for specific photoaffinity labelling of receptor molecules. The synthesis was performed in a way to minimize the number of radioactive steps and to introduce the radio-active and the photoaffinity label exclusively into position 2. The dipeptide N(α)-acetyl-D -alanyl- (4′-amino-3′,5′-diiodo)-L -phenylalanine was tritriated and transformed into the azido compound, N(α)-acetyl-D -alanyl-(4′-azido-3′,5′-ditritio)-L -phenylalanine which was then condensed with H · Ser-Nva-Glu(OtBu)-His-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-Lys(BOC)-Pro-Val · NH₂ to the tridecapeptide. The α-MSH analog displayed a specific activity of 11 Ci/mmol, and a biological activity of about 4 · 10⁹ U/mmol (10% of α-MSH).     

Stickstoffhaltige Dieisen-hexacarbonyl-Komplexe aus 3-Phenyl-2H-azirinen

Nitrogen-containing diiron-hexacarbonyl complexes from 3-phenyl-2H-azirines Reaction of 2,2-dimethyl-3-phenyl-2H-azirine ( 1 ) with diiron-enneacarbonyl yields as an insertion product, and in addition to other products, the diiron-hexacarbonyl complex 2 (Scheme 1), whose structure was derived from spectral data, in particular ¹³C-NMR.-data (Table 1). With trimethylamine oxide in benzene, 2 is converted into the urea derivative 3 , and yields with cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate the nitrate 4 (Scheme 1). The analogous complexes 6 and 9 have been obtained by irradiation of 1-phenyl-vinyl azide ( 5 ) and ironpentacarbonyl (Scheme 1) and from vinyl isocyanate ( 8 ) and diiron-enneacarbonyl at 40° (Scheme 2), respectively. The azirine 1 , an acetylenic compound and diiron-enneacarbonyl in benzene react to give complexes of type 10 as the main product (Scheme 3). The structure of complex 10 has been established by X-ray single crystals analysis. On the ¹³C-NMR. time scale the carbonyl groups of compound 10 show a fluxional behaviour: below ?50° the CO-groups of one of the two Fe(CO)₃-groups undergo intranuclear exchange, above ?50° the CO-groups of both Fe(CO)₃-groups undergo intranuclear exchange. Tentative reaction mechanisms for the formation of the complexes of type 2 and 10 are formulated in Schemes 5, 6 and 7.     

Preparation of L-Lyxo-Hexos-5-Ulose Through C-3 Epimerization of Bis-Glycopyranosides of L-Arabino-Hexos-5-Ulose1

Abstract

The unreported title compound and its 2,6-di-O-benzyl derivative have been prepared from methyl β-D-galactopyranoside through a sequence involving the bisglycoside methyl 2,6-di-O-benzyl-5-O-methoxv-β-D-galactopyranoside 8, the precursor of L-orabino-hexos-5-ulose, that was converted to the L-lyxo series by inversion at C-3. The inversion was achieved in acceptable yields by selective triflation, followed by displacement with benzoate, and by an oxidation/reduction sequence. Whereas 2,5-di-O-benzyl-L-lyxo-hexos-5-ulose exists entirely as a mixture of the two anomeric 1,4-furanosic forms, the unprotected hexos-5-ulose involves at equilibrium in CD₃CN/D₂O at least eight tautomers, one of which is predominant.

Synthesis and Nonlinear Optical Properties of a New A-π-A Two-Photon Compound Utilizing Dibenzothiophene as Center

A new two‐photon material, 3E,6E‐bis(2‐pyrid‐4′‐ylvinyl)dibenzothiophene (BPVDBT), has been firstly synthesized by an efficient Pd‐catalyzed Heck coupling route. The single‐ and two‐photon fluorescence, quantum yields, lifetimes, solvent effects of the chromophore were studied in detail and the compound exhibited solvent‐sensitivity. The fluorescence intensity (I_out) and input excitation intensity (I_in) can fit in well with the quadratic parabolas, which indicates that the up‐converted fluorescence was induced by the two‐photon absorption (TPA). TPA cross‐section of BPVDBT has been measured using the two‐photon‐induced fluorescence method, whose value is 14.24×10^?50 cm⁴·s·photon^?1·molecule^?1 at 750 nm. The experimental results confirm that BPVDBT is a good two‐photon absorbing chromophore with an A‐π‐A type.

A general and efficient synthesis of 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes

A convenient and efficient synthesis of N⁶-substituted 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes (6a-c) has been achieved starting from suitably substituted lactams, which were converted to nitroenamines followed by reductive cyclization to afford 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-ones in good yields. These bicyclic lactams were then reduced to the corresponding 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes and converted to the required N³,N⁶-disubstituted 3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes (7a-h), which were screened for α₁-adrenoceptors antagonistic activities.     

Synthesis of the 4-Deoxy-2-Deutero-4-Fluoro Analog of Methyl O-β-D-Galactopyranosyl-(1→6)-β-D-Galactopyranoside

ABSTRACT

Methyl 4-deoxy-4-fluoro-6-O-(β-D-galactopyranosyl)-(2-²H)-β-D-galactopyranoside was prepared by the condensation of 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzoyl-α-D-galactopyranosyl bromide and methyl 2-O-benzoyl-3-O-benzyl-4-deoxy-4-fluoro-(2-²H)-β-D-galactopyranoside (17), followed by deprotection. The introduction of deuterium at C-2 in an intermediate methylhexopyranoside was achieved by a double inversion, brought about by oxidation of C-2 of a derivative of methyl α-D-glucopyranoside, to give the corresponding ketone, and subsequent reduction thereof with NaBD₄, to give a derivative with the D-manno configuration (8). Inversion of the configuration at C-2 of the latter was achieved by displacement with sodium benzoate of the O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl (triflyl) group in the 2-O-triflyl derivative of 8. The resulting synthon was converted, conventionally, to methyl 2-O-benzoyl-3-O-benzyl-6-O-trityl-(2-²H)-β-D-glucopyranoside. Its conversion into the 6-O-trityl derivative of 17, unsuccessful by treatment with dimethylaminosulfur trifluoride, was readily accomplished by the displacement of the triflyl group with fluoride ion contained in an ion-exchange resin.     

Acid-Catalysed Rearrangements of α-Vinylcyclobutanones

The BF₃ · Et₂O- and the CH₃SO₃H-catalysed rearrangements of 10 α-vinylcyclobutanones have been examined. With little acid, the β,β-dialkyl derivatives 1 were transformed into linear dienones 2 and 3 ; with more acid, they were converted into cyclopentenones 4 by Nazarov cyclisation of initially formed 2/3 . The β-monoalkyl (including the β,γ-dialkyl) derivatives 7 rearranged only with a high acid concentration to afford the cyclopentenones 8 by 1,2-acyl migration. In the case of 7a , the cyclopentenone 8a was accompanied by the unexpected constitutional isomer 9a , which is explained by a reversible interconversion of the cyclobutanone 7a with its isomer 19 via a cyclopropane intermediate like 18 . In the case of the β,β-dialkyl derivative 5 , which contains an α-isobutenyl (instead of an α-vinyl) group, the acid-catalysed rearrangement product was the bicyclo[3. 1. 0]hexanone derivative 6 .
