Acidic N-dealkylation in nitrotriazolium salts

New selective synthesis of 1-alkyl-5-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles and 1-alkyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles has been developed, involving acid N-dealkylation of the relative 4-nitro-1,2,3- and 3-nitro- 5-R-1,2,4-triazolium salts. The assortment of novel 1-alkyl- 4(5)-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles has been thus essentially expanded. Treatment of relative 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazolium salts with HCl or HBr proceeds mostly as S_N^ipso-substitution of the nitro group.     

Nucleophilic substitution in 1-alkyl-4,5-dichloro-3-nitropyridazin-6-ones

Treatment of 1-alkyl-4,5-dichloro-3-nitropyridazin-6-one with C-nucleophiles and with ambident nucleophiles (2-azahetarylacetonitriles) leads to a selective substitution of a chorine atom by the quaternary carbon atom of the carbanion formed from a substituted acetonitrile. The pK_a of the CH-acid 2-(1-alkyl-5-chloro-3-nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydro-4-pyridazinyl)malononitrile was determined by potentiometric titration. Reaction of 2-(1-alkyl-5-chloro-3-nitro-6-oxo-1,6-dihydro-4-pyridazinyl)-2-hetarylacetonitriles with primary amines gives 6,7-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-7-ones. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 556–564, April, 2006.

¹H NMR spectra of derivatives of 5-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine were examined in trifluoroacetic acid solution. It was found that the compounds, unsubstituted in position 2, preserve their ring structure, whereas 2-alkyl- and 2-aryl derivatives are subjected to ring opening.     

Studies related to the total synthesis of pentostatin. Approaches to the synthesis of (8R)-3,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo-[4,5-d][1,3]diazepin-8-ol and N-3 alkyl congeners

A number of synthetic approaches to the (8R)-3,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-d][1,3]diazepin-8-ol ring system ( 3 ) of pentostatin ( 1 ) are reported. These involve the synthesis of a number of 4-C-derivatives of N-alkyl-5-amino- and 5-nitro-1H-imidazoles derived from 4-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazole.

The products were characterized by spectroscopic methods and the mechanism of the cyclization is discussed.

Alkylation of 4(5)-nitro-1,2,3-triazole with alcohols in strongly acidic media

Alkylation of 4(5)-nitro-1,2,3-triazole with alcohols in concentrated H₂SO₄ occurs at all three endocyclic N atoms, giving a mixture of isomeric N(1)-, N(2)-, and N(3)-alkyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles (alkyl is isopropyl, sec-butyl, and cyclohexyl). The selectivity of the alkylation depends on the alcohol used. The most selective alkylation is provided at the N(2) atom when isopropyl (81%) and sec-butyl alcohols are used (67%). With an increase in the reaction time, also in the order isopropyl-, sec-butyl-, and cyclohexyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles, the N(2)-isomers undergo isomerization into N(1)-alkyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles. In all the cases, the fraction of the N(3)-substitution products in the mixtures is 6–30%.

The esterolytic activity of poly(N-alkylimidazoles). The effect of ester chain length in the substrate and alkyl chain length in the catalyst on the esterolytic activity of poly(N-alkylimidazoles).

In an effort to exploit the enhancement in catalytic activity which might be derived through hydrophobic interactions between polymeric catalyst and substrate, 1-methyl-5-vinylimidazole (1-Me-5-VIm), 1-methyl-4-vinylimidazole (1-Me-4-VIm), 1-butyl-5-vinylimidazole (1-Bu-5-VIm), and 1-butyl-4-vinylimidazole (1-Bu-4-VIm) have been synthesized and polymerized. In 28.5% ethanol-water, poly(1-alkyl-5-vinylimidazoles)proved to be efficient catalysts for the hydrolysis of various 3-nitro-4-acyloxybenzoic acids (Sn-, where n denotes the acyl chain length). Order of magnitude rate enhancements, as compared to the model compound, 1,5-dimethylimidazole (1,5-DMIm) were observed in the poly(1-alkyl-5-vinylimidazole)-catalyzed solvolysis of S12- and S18-. Poly(1-Me-5-VIm) catalyzes the hydrolysis of S18-88 times faster than does 1,5-DMIm. The poly(1-Me-5-VIm)-catalyzed hydrolysis of S18- in ethanol-water was analyzed in terms of a simple Michaelis-Menten type mechanism. Vmax and Km were determined to be 40.2 X 10(-7) M min-1 and 2.20 X 10(-5) M, respectively.

1,4,4a,10b-Tetrahydro-N,N-dimethyl-4-phenanthridinamines and 1,4,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-N,N-dimethyl-4-phenanthridinamines

Synthetic procedures to prepare the title compounds are described. Diels-Alder cycloaddition of β-nitrostyrene derivatives 5 to N,N-dimethyl-1,3-butadien-1-amine, 6 , gave 5-aryl-N,N-dimethyl-6-nitro-2-cyclohexen-1-amines 7. Reduction of 7 with zinc in acetic acid gave the diamino derivatives 8 . Schotten-Baumann acylation of 8 gave amides 9 . Treatment of 8 with alkyl isocyanates gave the aminourea derivatives 10 . Bischler-Napieralski cyclodehydration procudure of 9 and 10 gave 1,4,4a,10b-tetrahydrophenanthridinamines 3 and N⁶-alkyl-1,4,4a,10b-tetrahydro-N⁴,N⁴-dimethyl-4,6-phenanthridinediamines 11 , respectively.

The stereochemistry of these materials is assigned from the proton magnetic resonance studies.     

DFT calculations of CH acidity of substituted triazoles and experimental study of their ability to undergo mercuration

The CH acidity of all possible N-methyl substituted nitrotriazoles as well as of some 4-substituted 1,2,3-triazoles and N-alkyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles in the gas phase and in THF and DMSO solution has been calculated with the density functional theory B3LYP method. Electronic effects of substituents on the CH acidity of 4-substituted 1,2,3-triazoles have been examined using linear free energy relationship (LFER) methodology. In order to investigate the relation between the CH acidity of the heterocycles and their ability to undergo electrophilic substitution involving C-H bond cleavage, we have studied the reaction of isomeric N-alkyl-4-nitro-1,2,3-triazoles (alkyl=methyl, ethyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl) with HgBr₂ in alkali solution. It was found that 1-isomers undergo mercuration readily, while mercuration of 2-substituted compounds do not occur under the same conditions, which is in agreement with the results of DFT calculations of the CH acidity of the compounds, showing that 2-isomers have considerably lower CH acidity than 1-isomers.     

Dissociation energies of O–H bonds in 3-pyridinols

The O?H bond dissociation energy (D _O?H) has been estimated for 20 substituted 3-pyridinols and a substituted 3-pyrimidinol from experimental kinetic data by the intersecting parabolas method using α-tocopherol and 4-methoxyphenol as reference compounds. The following D _O?H values (kJ/mol) have been obtained: 363.7 for 3-pyridinol, 365.3 for 2-alkyl-3-pyridinols (five compounds), 358.8 for 2-alkyl-6-methyl-3-pyridinols (six compounds), 378.1 for 5-benzyl-3-pyridinol, 353.2 for 2,4,6-trimethyl-3-pyridinol, 340.9 for 2-benzyl-6-methoxy-3-pyridinol, 345.8 for 2,6-dimethoxy-5-benzyl-3-pyridinol, 381.7 for 2-ethyl-4-nitro-6-methyl-3-pyridinol, 376.8 for 2-isopropyl-4-nitro-6-methyl-3-pyridinol, 318.3 for 2,4-dimethyl-6-dimethylamino-3-pyridinol, 357.3 for mexidol, and 322.2 for 2,4-dimethyl-6-dimethylamino-3-pyrimidinol. The substituent effect on the O?H bond dissociation energy in 3-pyridinols is considered. The stabilization energies of pyridinoxyl and phenoxyl radicals are compared. The activation energies and rate constants have been calculated for a series of reactions of various radicals with 3-pyridinols.

Nineteen novel O,O-diphenyl l-(5-alkyl-1, 3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl) amino-1-arylmethylphosphonates were synthesized by the three-component condensation reactions of 2-amino-5-alkyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles with triphenyl phosphite and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of acetic acid.     

4-Alkoxycarbonyl, 4-alkylthiocarbonyl and 5-alkoxycarbonyloxy derivatives of 1-substituted-3-methylpyrazol-5-ones

The reaction of 1-substituted-3-methylpyrazol-5-ones 1 with alkyl chloroformates and calcium hydroxide in dioxane have been studied. With 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one, the isolated product was alkyl 3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenylpyrazole-4-carboxylate 2 but with 1-alkyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-one formation of 1-alkyl-5-alkoxycarbonyloxy-3-methylpyrazole 3 was observed. Replacement of alkyl chloroformate by bis(alkoxythiocarbonyl) sulfide results in the formation of 4-alkoxythiocarbonyl derivatives 4 in low yield with both 1-substituted-3-methylpyrazol-5-ones.
