5-Pyrimidylboronic acid and 2-methoxy-5-pyrimidylboronic acid: new heteroarylpyrimidine derivatives via Suzuki cross-coupling reactions

5-Pyrimidylboronic acid and 2-methoxy-5-pyrimidylboronic acid 4 have been synthesised by lithium-halogen exchange reactions on 5-bromopyrimidine and 2-methoxy-5-bromopyrimidine, respectively, followed by reaction with triisopropylborate. Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of 2 and 4 with heteroaryl halides [Na(2)CO(3), Pd(PPh(3))(2)Cl(2), 1,4-dioxane, 95 degrees C] yield heteroarylpyrimidines (heteroaryl = thienyl, quinolyl and pyrimidyl). Two-fold reaction of 2 with 4,6-dichloropyrimidine 12 gave 4,6-bis(5-pyrimidyl)pyrimidine 8(56% yield). Reaction of 4,6-dichloropyrimidine with 2-methoxy-5-pyridylboronic acid gave 4,6-bis(2-methoxy-5-pyridyl)pyrimidine 14 (84% yield). Conversion of into 4,6-bis(2-chloro-5-pyridyl)pyrimidine 15 (63% yield) followed by two-fold Suzuki reaction with 4-tert-butylbenzeneboronic acid gave the penta-arylene derivative 4,6-bis[2-(4-tert-butyl)phenyl-5-pyridyl]pyrimidine 16 (16% yield). Analogous reaction of 12 with 2-methoxy-3-pyridylboronic acid 17 gave 4,6-bis(2-methoxy-3-pyridyl)pyrimidine 18 (64% yield). The X-ray crystal structures of compound 2.0.5H(2)O and compound 18 are reported. The two hydroxyl H atoms in 2 have the usual exo-endo orientation. However, unlike most arylboronic acids, molecule 2 does not form a centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded dimer. In molecule 18, the pyridine rings form dihedral angles of 39.9 degrees and 22.8 degrees with the central pyrimidine ring.     

A facile synthesis of 4,6-dimethoxy-[2-<Superscript>14</Superscript>C]-2-methylsulphonylpyrimidine

Summary 4,6-dimethoxy-2-methylsulphonylpyrimidine is a key intermediate for the synthesis of pyrithiobac-sodium, a selective herbicide for cotton plant. ¹⁴C labeled pyrithiobac-sodium is required for studying the translocation and metabolism in cotton plants. It was prepared by oxidation of 4,6-dimethoxy-[2-¹⁴C]-2-methylmercaptopyrimidine with H₅IO₆/CrO₃ in ethyl acetate at room temperature to give 4,6-dimethoxy-[2-¹⁴C]-2-methylsulphonylpyrimidine in high yields.     

Rotation and inversion barriers in 2-lithio-2-phenyl-1,3-dithianes

The barriers to phenyl rotation in 2-lithio-2-phenyl-cis-4,6-dimethyl-, 2-lithio-2-phenyl-4,4,6-trimethyl- and 2-lithio-2-phenyl-trans-4,6-dimethyl-1,3-dithiane are compared in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and hexamethylphosphortriamide (HMPA). In the first two cases, the barriers in THF are lower than those in HMPA, presumably because the lithio compound exists as a tight ion pair in THF but as a solvent-separated ion pair (with more delocalization of charge into the phenyl ring) in HMPA. However, in the trans-4,6-dimethyl compound the barriers are the same in the two solvents and nearly equal to the barriers for ring reversal. It is concluded that in this compound the rate-determining step for phenyl rotation may actually be ring reversal, at least in solvent HMPA.     

Synthesis of Diheteroarylamine Ligands by Palladium‐Catalyzed Mono‐ and Diamination of Dichlorohetero­arenes with Heteroarenamines

The syntheses of bidentate (see 6 and 12 ), bis‐bidentate ( 7, 10 , and 13 ) up to oligo‐bidentate (see 11 and 14 ) diheteroarylamine‐based N,N‐ligands are reported (Tables 2, 4, and 5). In the course of investigations on heteroaromatic (C? N)‐bond formations, a protocol for the Pd‐catalyzed mono‐ and diamination of 2,6‐dichloropyridine ( 1 ) and 4,6‐dichloropyrimidines 5 with heteroaren‐2‐amines 2 and pyrimidine‐4,6‐diamines 8 is developed. The results are applied to the syntheses of the ‘pentamers’ 11a – 11d and the ‘heptamer’ 14 based on 4,6‐disubstituted 2‐alkylpyrimidines 5 and 8 , respectively.     

Carbenoid reactions of 2-halomethyl-4,6-dimethyl-s-triazines

Reactions of lithium, sodium, and potassium salts of 2,4,6-trimethyl-s-triazine (1) with 2-halomethyl-4,6-dimethyl-s-triazine (2) (X = Cl, Br) in glyme have been studied and found to give 1,2-bis(4,6-dimethyl-s-triazin-2-yl)ethane (3), 1,2-bis(4,6-dimethyl-s-triazin-2-yl)ethene (5), 1,2,3-tris(4,6-dimethyl-s-triazin-2-yl)cyclopropane (6), 1,2,3-tris(4,6-dimethyl-s-triazin-2-yl)propane (7), and 1,2,3,4-tetrakis(4,6-dimethyl-s-triazin-2-yl)butane (8). It is proposed that product 3 is formed primarily via an S(N)2 reaction, whereas the remaining products are formed primarily via carbenoid reactions that are enumerated.     

Synthesis of Azo-Sulfa Drugs Based on 2-Pyridinone and 2-Pyridinethione

The corresponding iron (1a-6a, 1′a-6′a), copper (1b-6b, 1′b-6′b) and mercury (1c-6c, 1′c-6′c) chelates wvere also prepared. All synthesized compounds were screened in vitro for antibacterial and antifungal activities.

It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/c with a =9.6501(14), b = 16.393(2), c = 36.745(6) (A), β = 97.444(4)°, V = 5763.7(15)(A)3, Mr= 1124.69, Z =4, Dc= 1.296 g/cm3, μ(MoKa) = 1.175 mm-1, F(000) = 2348, the final R = 0.0729 and wR =0.1762 for 8735 observed reflections with I ＞ 2σ(1). Complex 1 consists of an anion [NdCl5(THF)]2- and two cations [HO-4,6-di-tBu-C6H2-2-CH2{CH(iprNCHCHN)}]2 to form a layer structure by the interconnection of anions and cations via hydrogen bonding. The central metal Nd in the anionic unit is coordinated by five Cl atoms and one oxygen atom from solvated THF molecule assuming a distorted octahedral geometry.     

Quantum chemical investigation of formation of polychlorodibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans from oxidation and pyrolysis of 2-chlorophenol

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to obtain thermochemical parameters for formation of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDD/PCDF) from the oxidation of 2-chlorophenol. Formation mechanisms of PCDD through radical-radical coupling have been investigated in detail. The sequence of 2-chlorophenoxy radical coupling has been studied. The formation of chlorinated bis keto dimers which results from cross coupling of 2-chlorophenoxy at the ortho carbon bearing hydrogen (a known direct route for PCDF formation) passes through a tight transition structure whose barrier is 9.4 kcal/mol (0 K). Three routes for the formation of the most abundant PCDD/PCDF species (viz., 4,6-dichlorodibenzofuran, 4,6-DCDF, and 1-monochlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, 1-MCDD) in oxidation and pyrolysis of 2-chlorophenol are discussed. In the case of 4,6-DCDF, formation through H or HO + keto-keto <==> H2 or H2O + keto-keto* <==> H2 or H2O + enol-keto* <==> H2 or H2O + 4,6-DCDF + HO is shown to be the preferred route. The other two routes proceed via closed shell processes (keto-keto <==> enol-keto <==> enol-enol <==> H2O + 4,6-DCDF) and (keto-keto <==> enol-keto <==> (H-,OH-) 4,6-DCDF <==> H2O + 4,6-DCDF). Results indicate that 1-MCDD should be the favored product in 2-chlorophenol pyrolysis in agreement with experimental findings. According to our results, tautomerization (inter-ring hydrogen transfer) and intra-annular displacement of HCl would not be competitive with paths deriving from H abstraction from the phenolic oxygen and the benzene ring followed by displacement of Cl in the formation of dibenzo-p-dioxin (DD) and 1-MCDD. The results presented here will assist in construction of detailed kinetic models to account for the formation of PCDD/PCDF from chlorophenols.     

Synthetic utilization of polynitroaromatic compounds. 2. Synthesis Of 4,6-dinitro-1,2-benzisothiazol-3-ones and 4,6-dinitro-1, 2-benzisothiazoles from 2-benzylthio-4,6-dinitrobenzamides

Cyclization of 2-benzylthio-4,6-dinitrobenzamides to 4,6-dinitro-1, 2-benzisothiazol-3-ones was achieved using SO(2)Cl(2) in CH(2)Cl(2) at room temperature. Alkylation of these heterocycles proceeded in a nonregioselective manner to yield a mixture of corresponding O- and N-alkylated products. Oxidation of 4,6-dinitro-1,2-benzisothiazoles (50% H(2)O(2) in AcOH) afforded the corresponding S-oxides and S, S-dioxides, depending on oxidation conditions. Unexpectedly, oxidation of a 3-methoxy derivative resulted in ring opening with the formation of the corresponding sulfamide. Chlorination of these 4,6-dinitro-1,2-benzisothiazol-3-ones (PCl(5)-POCl(3)) gave the expected 3-chloroisothiazoles.
