Preparation of 1-[ω-(1,4,5,6-Tetrahydropyrimidin-2-Yl)Alkyl]Thymines

One-stage preparation of 1-[ω-(1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-yl)alkyl]-thymines from 1-(ω-cyanoalkyl)thymines and a 1:1-mixture of 1,3-diaminopropane and ethanol saturated with hydrogen sulfide is described. 1-(2-Cyanoethyl)-thymine gave a facile reversal of the Michael reaction to thymine under the conditions used. The reaction of 1,3-bis(3-cyanobenzyl)thymine with the above reagent produced 1,3-bis[3-(1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-yl)benzyl]thymine.     

Synthesis and some transformations of trans-1-methyl-2-[β-(2′-thienyl)vinylene]-1H-benzimidazole

The condensation of 1,2-dimethylbenzimidazole with thiophene-2-aldehyde in the presence of fused zinc chloride results in 1-methyl-2-[β-(2-thienyl)vinylene]-1H-benzimidazole. Its electrophilic substitution reactions (nitration, bromination, sulfonation, formylation, acylation) were studied. All the reactions occur in the 5-position of the thiophene ring. Only in the case of bromination in dichloroethane 5′,5(6)-dibromo-derivative was obtained. Data of the quantum-chemical calculations of the total positive charge on the carbon atoms of the protonated molecules of thienylbenzimidazoles including the vinylene group and without it are reported.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of (2S,2'S,4'R)-2-(1-Hydroxy-1-ethylpropyl)-1-[(1'-p-tosyl-4'-hydroxypyrrolidin-2'-yl)methyl]pyrrolidine

1 INTRODUCTION In recent years, chiral β-amino alcohols have attracted much attention due to their special bio- logical functions and catalytic activities. Chiral β- amino alcohol moieties are usually found not only in natural products (e.g., cinchona alkaloids, ephe- drine, toxal, etc.) with special biological activities[1, 2], but also critical structural segments of some syn- thesized biologically active compounds, such as adrenergic agonists or antagolist[3, 4] and inhibitors for HI…

A convenient method for 14C-labeling of 2-methylthio-1-[4-N-α-ethoxycarbonylbenzyl)-amino-benzyl]-5-hydroxymethyl-2-[14C]-1H-imidazole and 1-[4-N-α-ethoxy-carbonylbenzyl)-aminobenzyl]-5-hydroxymethyl-2-[14C]-1H-imidazole as potential antihypertensives

The key synthetic intermediate, (2-mercapto-1-(4-nitrobenzyl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)methanol-[2-¹⁴C], has been synthesized by using one pot procedure from potassium[¹⁴C]-thiocyanate. It was converted to two nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonists, 2-methylthio-1-[4-N-α-ethoxycarbonyl benzyl)-aminobenzyl]-5-hydroxymethyl-1H-imidazole-[2-¹⁴C] and 1-[4-N-α-ethoxy-carbonylbenzyl)-aminobenzyl]-5-hydroxymethyl-1H-imidazole-[2-¹⁴C] via a 3-step sequence synthetic pathway.

Synthesis of 1-[6-Fluoro-(2S)-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]-(1R)-1,2- ethanediol and 1-[6-Fluoro-(2R)-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]- (1R)-1,2-ethanediol

Benzopyran compounds possess diverse pharmacological properties such as β-blockade, anticonvulsant and antimicrobial.[1,2] Our interest has been focused on the synthesis of 1-[6-Fluoro-2S]-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]-(1R)-1,2-ethanediol (6) and 1-[6-fluoro-(2R)-3H,4H-dihydro-2H-2-chromenyl]-(1R)-1,2-ethanediol (7) which are particularly convenient precursor to (S,R,R,R)-NE (8). 8 containing four asymmetrical carbon atoms was reported to be the most active isomer.[3] Chandrasekhar[4] has reported on the synthesis of 8. The key step to synthesize this compound is to obtain the chiral chromanone 6 and 7. 6 was accomplished in 8 steps by the Clasien rearrangement and a one-pot Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation, but the compound 7 was accomplished in 10 steps. Johannes[5] used Zr-catalytic kinetic resolution of allylic ethers and Mo-catalyzed chromene formation to synthesize 8 in 14 steps. However both of the methods request many synthetic steps and expensive reagents.     

Diels–Alder reactions of enantiopure [(1S)-isoborneol-10-sulfinyl]- and [(1S-exo)-2-bornylsulfinyl]vinylcyclohexenes with maleimides

Uncatalyzed cycloadditions of enantiopure [(1S)-isoborneol-10-sulfinyl]- and [(1S-exo)-2-bornylsulfinyl]vinylcyclohexenes with N-phenylmaleimide occur with good facial diastereoselectivity, controlled by the sulfur configuration, even if the extent of this stereoselection appears influenced by the structural features of the terpene residue directly linked to the sulfoxide moiety. Complete endo diastereoselectivity is observed in LiClO₄ catalyzed cycloadditions of (R_S)-1-{1-[(1S)-isoborneol-10-sulfinyl]- and (S_S)-1-{1-[(1S-exo)-2-bornylsulfinyl]vinyl}cyclohexenes 4 and 5, respectively. The Diels–Alder reactivity of 5 and (S_S,E)-1-{2-[(1S-exo)-2-bornylsulfinyl]vinyl}cyclohexene 7, with the chiral auxiliary being in a different position with respect to the diene moiety, is also compared, and the results obtained comfirm that 1-sulfinyldienes are less reactive than 2-sulfinyldienes. SnCl₄ catalyzed cycloaddition of 7 with N-methylmaleimide is also performed.

Synthesis and characterization of (Z)-1-[2-(triphenylstannyl)vinylj-l-cyclododecanol,c-(CH2)11C(OH)CH=CHSnPh3,are reported,together with its halogenation by I2,Br2 and IC1 to yield derivatives of the types c-(CH2)11C(OH)CH=CHSnPh3_nXn (n=1,2; X=I,Br,Cl,respectively).The molecular structures of two compounds have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.The tin atom exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry in the crystal of (Z)-1-[2-(triphenylstannyl)vinyl]-1-cyclododecanol,but a trigonal bipyramidal geometry in the monoiodo-derivative (Z)-1-[2-(diphenyliodo-stannyl)vinyl]-l-cyclododecanol and other derivatives,in which significant intramolecular coordinative interaction HO→Sn is observed.And the formation of a five-membered tin containing ring is significant for their antitumour activities.     

Efficient synthesis and resolution of (±)-1-[2-carboxy-6-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid

A novel, efficient synthesis and resolution of (±)-1-[2-carboxy-6-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid has been developed for the preparation of new members of optically active atropisomers. The e.e. values were determined by a highly sensitive ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopic method using β-cyclodextrin as chiral complexing agent. Single-crystal X-ray structures of the two diastereoisomeric salts and consequently, the absolute configurations of the enantiomers are also reported.

Synthesis of metal complexes with 2-[bis(2-phenylethyl)-thiophophorylhydroxymethyl]-1-organilimidazoles. Crystal structure of ZnCl2 · 2L

The reactions of Zn(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Co(II), Pd(II) dichlorides with 2-[bis(2-phenylethyl)thiophosphorylhydroxymethyl]-1-organilimidazoles (L¹–L⁴) were studied. The novel complexes were synthesized and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopies. Depending on the nature of imidazolephosphinesulfide, both monodentate (at the “pyridine” N(1) atom of heterocycle) and the N,S-bidentate binding of the ligand by a metal can be realized in the above metal complexes. The structure of the complex ZnCl₂ · 2L⁴(I) (L⁴ = 2-[bis(2-phenylethyl)thiophosphorylhydroxymethyl]-1-ethylbenzimidazole) was studied by X-ray diffraction. One of the two independent L⁴ molecules performs the solvate function, while another one, together with two Cl atoms, is coordinated through the atoms N(1) and S to the Zn atom at the vertices of a slightly distorted tetrahedron. The molecule of the complex is united with the solvate molecule into [ZnCl₂L₄]L⁴ associates by strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds to give nonplanar four-membered H-cycle OH₂N.
