Regioselective synthesis of polyfluoroalkyl-substituted 7-(1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-indazol-4(5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones

3-Polyfluoroalkyl-6,6-dimethyl-7-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones were synthesized with high regioselectivity by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of terminal alkynes (phenylacetylene, hex- 1-yne, hept-1-yne, and but-3-yn-1-ol) to 7-azido-6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol-4(5H)-ones which were prepared by bromination of 6,6-dimethyl-3-polyfluoroalkyl-6,7-dihydro-1H-indazol- 4(5H)-ones with N-bromosuccinimide in anhydrous carbon tetrachloride, followed by treatment of the corresponding 7-bromo derivatives with sodium azide.     

Synthesis of 5-aminoisoxazolines from N-allyl compounds and nitrile oxides via tandem isomerization-1,3-dipolar cycloaddition

A new strategy for the synthesis of derivatives of 5-aminoisoxazolines via tandem catalytic isomerization (of N-allyl systems to N-(1-propenyl) systems)—1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (of a stable nitrile oxide to N-(1-propenyl) systems) is presented. Rhodium and ruthenium complexes, Verkade’s superbase, and 18-crown-6/KOH system were used for the syntheses of the N-(1-propenyl) systems. 4-P-substituted isoxazoline was also synthesized via cycloaddition of diphenyl(1-propenyl)phosphine (prepared via isomerization of allyldiphenylphosphine) to 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile oxide. All cycloadditions were regioselective but not stereoselective and not concerted. Cycloaddition to all N-(1-propenyl) systems yielded 5-N-substituted isoxazolines, but cycloaddition to P-(1-propenyl) system lead to the formation of a 4-P-regioisomer. This difference in regioselectivity is predicted by opposite FMO reactivity indices calculated for model compounds: N-(1-propenyl)amine and N-(1-propenyl)phosphine.     

Chemical and X-Ray crystallographic characterization of the reaction products in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of diazomethane to p-toluquinone

The product 2 in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of one equivalent of diazomethane to p-toluquinone (1) was determined by 250 MHz nmr spectra to be approximately 85% 6-methyl-1-H-indazole-4,7-dione (2b). X-ray crystallographic analysis was employed in the characterization of 1,6-dimethyl-1-H-indazole-4,7-dione (4a), which was the major 1-N-methyl regioisomer in the methylation of the cycloaddition mixture 2 with diazomethane. Methylation of the cycloaddition product 2 with diazomethane also provided a regioisomeric mixture of the 2-N-methyl derivatives 5. This mixture was synthesized for characterization by an independent method which utilized the cycloaddition of 3-methylsydnone (10) to toluquinone (1). 1,5,6-Trimethyl-1-H-ind-azole-4,7-dione (9) was found to be a minor product in the reaction of diazomethane with the cycloaddition product 2.     

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. Condensation of diamines 8 with aryl aldehydes under azeotropic conditions gave imines 12 which on treatment with acids yielded 6-aryl-1,4,4a,5,6,10b-hexahydro-N,N-dimethyl-4-phenanthridinamines 4 . The stereochemistry of these materials is assigned from the proton magnetic resonance studies.     

Some reactions of 1-alkyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines with organic azides. Synthesis of 1-alkylpiperidylidene-2-sulfonamides

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 1-substituted-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines 4a-d with organic azides 5 afforded the respective 1-substituted-piperidylidene-2-sulfonamides 6 . In contrast, the reaction of (E)-1-(1-propenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine ( 4e ) with 4-chlorobenzenesulfonyl azide yielded 6m as well as 1-(4-chlorophenyl)sulfonimine-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine ( 7 ) arising from addition of the azide to the (E)-1-(1-propenyl) substituent of 4e .     

Synthesis of 3,3′-biisoxazoles from cyanogen N,N′-dioxide and trimethylsilyl enol ethers via the corresponding 5,5′-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-3,3′-Δ2-biisoxazolines

Regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of Cyanogen N,N′-dioxide ( 2 ) to trimethylsilyl enol ethers 3a-d, 6 and 7 gave the corresponding 5,5′-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-3,3′-Δ²-biisoxazolines which upon short heating with 10% hydrochloric acid afforded 3,3′-biisoxazoles 5a-d , 8 and 9. Only the intermediate 5,5′-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-derivative 4a was isolated and studied. Reaction of 2 with vinyl methyl ketone ( 10 ) gave biisoxazoline 11 which by oxidation with γ-manganese dioxide gave biisoxazole 12.     

1a,11b-dihydrobenz[5,6]anthr[1,2-B]azirine. A non k-region polycyclic arene imine

The synthesis of the title compound 9 is described. Benz[a]anthracene 8,9-oxide (6) was reacted with sodium azide in aqueous acetone and the trans-9-azido-8,9-dihydrobenz[a]anthr-8-ol (7), so formed, was cyclized by tri-n-butylphosphine. Attempts to dehydrogenate 10,11-dihydrobenz[a]anthracene 8,9-imine (4) with DDQ or by allylic bromination followed by base assisted dehydrobromination was unsuccessful. The N-tosyl derivative of 4, prepared from the free imine, N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide and tosyl chloride underwent rapid aziridine-ring cleavage by the silylating agent to give trans-8,9,10,11-tetrahydro-8-(4-methyl)benzensulfon-amido-9- [(trimethyl)oxy]benz[a]anthracene (10).     

N-(1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-yliden)amine aus 1,3-dipolaren Cycloadditionen von Aziden mit 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thionen

N-(1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-ylidene)amines via 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Azides and 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thiones Organic azides 5 and 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-thione ( 2 ) in toluene at 90° react to give the corresponding N-(1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-ylidene)amines (= 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-imines) 6 in good yield (Table). A reaction mechanism for the formation of these scarcely investigated thiazole derivatives is formulated in Scheme 3: 1,3-Dipolar azide cycloaddition onto the C?S group of 2 leads to the 1:1 adduct C . Successive elimination of N₂ and S yields 6 , probably via an intermediate thiaziridine E .     

The synthesis of 4-(2,6,10-trimethyl-1,3,5,9-undecatetraenyl)benzoic acid based on alkoxy alkene-acetal condensation

4-(2,6,10-Trimethyl-1,3,5,9-undecatetraenyl)benzoic acid (1) was synthesized starting from ethyl 4-formylbenzoate (2) and linalool. The key intermediate, ethyl 4-(2-methyl-3-oxo-1-propenyl)benzoate (5), was obtained by the addition of diethyl acetal (3), prepared from2, to ethyl 1-propenyl ether (EPE) followed by the hydrolysis of the resulting adduct.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Preparation of bicyclic β-lactam and bicyclic 1,3-oxazinone scaffolds using combined cycloaddition and metathesis processes

A simple, efficient two-step method for the preparation of heterobicyclic compounds was developed. Starting from 5-acyl or 5-carbamoyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxa-4,5-dione bicyclic scaffolds of 1-azabicyclo[5.2.0]non-3-en-9-one, 6,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-4H-[1,3]oxazino[3,2-a]azepin-4-one, and 6,9,10,10a-tetrahydro-2H-[1,3]oxazino[3,2-a]azepine-2,4(3H)-dione were prepared using cycloaddition of thermally generated ketenes to aldimines with unsaturated side chains, followed by metathesis. The method was applied to ring closing metathesis (RCM) of different heterocyclic substrates to demonstrate its versatility.

Preparation of Enantiomerically Pure Derivatives of 3-Amino- and 3-Mercaptobutanoic Acid by S_N2 Ring Opening of the β-Lactone and a 1,3-Dioxanone Derived from 3-Hydroxybutanoic Acid From (S)-4-methyloxetan-2-one ( 1 ), the β-butyrolactone readily available from the biopolymer ( R )-polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and various C, N, O and S nucleophiles, the following compounds are prepared:(s)-2-hydroxy-4-octanone ( 3 ), (R)-3-aminobutanoic acid ( 7 ) and its N-benzyl derivative 5 , (R)-3-azidobutanoic acid ( 6 ) (R)-3-mercaptobutanoic acid ( 10 ), (R)-3-(phenylthio)butanoic acid ( 8 ) and its sulfoxide 9 . The (6R)-2,6-dimethyl-2-ethoxy-1,3-dioxan-4-one ( 4 ) from (R)-3-hydroxybutanoic acid undergoes S^N2 ring opening with benzylamine to give the N-benzyl derivative (ent- 5 ) of (S)-3-aminobutanoic acid in 30?40% yield.     

Halogenation of N-substituted p-quinone monoimines and p-quinone monooxime ethers: XIII. Specificity of bromination of N-Acetyl(aroyl)-1,4-benzoquinone monoimines

6-Hydroxy-2-methyl(aryl)-1,3-benzoxazoles were synthesized by bromination of N-acetyl(aroyl)-1,4-benzoquinone monoimines.     

Synthèse de l'évernine

Synthesis of Evernin Two syntheses of the depside evernin 6 are described. Condensation of methyl acetoacetate and methyl crotonate followed by aromatization and reduction with Raney-Ni led to methyl orsellinate (3) . The condensation of everninic acid (4) , obtained by partial methylation of 3 and saponification of the methyl ester, with methyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-3, 6-dimethylbenzoate (methyl β-orcin carboxylate) (5) in presence of cyclohexylcarbodiimide gave evernin ( 6 ). In a second syntheis methyl dihydroorsellinate (1) was regiospecifically converted into its 4-methyl enol ether and aromatized via the benzene selenenyl derivative to yield methyl evernate (7) . Benzylation followed by saponification gave the free acid 8 . Methyl β-orcin carboxylate (5) was synthesized in an analogous way from methyl 3,6-dimethyl-2,4-dioxocyclohexanecarboxylate. Condensation of 8 with the methyl ester 5 by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride in toluene yielded 9 , which could be converted into evernin ( 6 ) by hydrogenolysis of the benzyl ether.     

Di-4(3H)-quinazolinon-2-yl Derivatives from the Diacid Chlorides of Pinic and sym-Homopinic Acids

The corresponding diamides have been synthesized by the interaction of the diacid chlorides of cis-2,2-dimethyl-3-carboxycyclobutaneacetic acid (pinic acid) and cis-2,2-dimethylcyclobutane-1,3-diacetic acid (sym-homopinic acid) with two equivalents of anthranilic acid. Treatment of the diamides with formamide gave 2,2-dimethyl-1-[4(3H)-quinazolinon-2-yl]methyl-3-[4(3H)-quinazolinon-2-yl]cyclobutane and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-di[4(3H)-quinazolinon-2-ylmethyl]cyclobutane respectively.     

Enantioselective synthesis of N,O-psiconucleosides

The first enantioselective synthesis of β-d and β-l N,O-psiconucleosides is reported. The synthetic approach is based on the asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the C-[(4S)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]-N-methyl nitrone with ethyl 2-acetyloxyacrylate followed by Vorbrüggen nucleosidation, and removal of the chiral auxiliary. Stereochemical assignments are supported by a DFT theoretical study of the cycloaddition reaction.     

[2+3] Cycloadditions of ‘Thiocarbonyl Ylides’ (= (Alkylidenesulfonio)methanides) and diazoalkanes with N,N′-(thiocarbonyl)diimidazole (= 1,1′-(carbonothioyl)bis[1H-imidazole])

Heating of a mixture of N,N′-(thiocarbonyl)diimidazole (= 1,1′-(carbonothioyl)bis[1H-imidazole]; 1 ) and 2,5-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole 2a or 2b gave the 1,3-dithiolanes 4a and 4b , respectively, via a regiospecific 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the corresponding ‘thiocarbonyl methanides’ 3a , b onto the C?S group of 1 (Schemes 1 and 2). The adamantane derivative 4b was not stable in the presence of 1H-imidazole and during chromatographic workup. The isolated 1,3-dithiole 5 is the product of a base-catalyzed elimination of 1H-imidazole from the initial cycloadduct 4b . The formation of the S,N-acetal 6 can be rationalized by a protonation of the ‘thiocarbonyl ylide’ 3b followed by a nucleophilic addition of 1H-imidazole. With the diazo compounds 8a–e (Scheme 3) 1 underwent a regiospecific 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to give the corresponding 2,5-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives 9 , which spontaneously eliminated 1H-imidazole to yield (1H-imidazol-1-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazoles 10 . The structures of 10a and 10d were established by X-ray crystallography. In the case of diazodiphenylmethane ( 8f ), the initial cycloadduct 9f decomposed via a ‘twofold extrusion’ of N₂ and S to give 1,1′-(2,2-diphenylethenylidene)bis[1H-imidazole] ( 11 ; Scheme 3).     

[f]-Fused purine-2,6-diones: Synthesis of new [1,3,5]- and [1,3,6]-thiadiazepino-[3,2-f]-purine ring systems

Summary 6-Phenyl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4,8,9-hexahydro-[1,3,5]-thiadiazepino-[3,2-f]-purine (5) was obtained by a three-step synthesis from 8-mercapto-1,3-dimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione (1) and 2-(benzoylamino)-ethyl chloride (2)via 8-(benzoylaminoethylthio)-1,3-dimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione (3) and its chloromido derivative4. The analogous 9-phenyl-1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4,6,7-hexahydro-[1,3,6]-thiadiazepino-[3,2-f]-purine (7) was synthesized either from compound1 and N-(2-chloroethyl)-benzimido chloridevia N-(chloroethyl)-S-(1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-7H-purin-8-yl)-benzothioimide (6), or alternatively from 7-(2-benzoylaminoethyl)-8-bromo-1,3-dimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione (9), its 8-mercapto derivative10 and the corresponding chloroimido compound11 being the intermediates.Part of this paper was presented as a preliminary report at the Congress of Czech and Slovak Chemical Societies, Olomouc, Czech Republic, September 13–16, 1993     

Halogenation of Imidazo[4,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]pyridin-2-one Derivatives

Chlorination and bromination of 2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one and its N-methyl-substituted derivatives in acetic acid at 90–95°C leads to formation of the corresponding 5,6-dichloro(dibromo)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones. Iodination of the same substrates with ICl under analogous conditions yields 6-iodo derivatives. Chlorination of 6-iodo-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one is accompanied by replacement of the iodine atom by chlorine with formation of 5,6-dichloro-1,3-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-one. Bromination of 6-bromo- and 6-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones gives 5,6-dibromo- and 5-bromo-6-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones, respectively.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 4, 2005, pp. 586–589.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Yutilov, Lopatinskaya, Smolyar, Gres’ko.     

Nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of RF-containing 4-quinolones, 8-aza- and 1-thiochromones with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane

Reactions of N-substituted 2-polyfluoroalkyl-4-quinolones and 8-aza-5,7-dimethyl-2-polyfluoroalkylchromones with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane proceed mainly as a 1,4-nucleophilic trifluoromethylation to give N-substituted 2,2-bis(polyfluoroalkyl)-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones and 5,7-dimethyl-2,2-bis(polyfluoroalkyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyrano[2,3-b]pyridin-4-ones after acid hydrolysis. Similar reaction with 2-trifluoromethyl-4H-thiochromen-4-one proceeds as a 1,2-addition to give 2,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4H-thiochromen-4-yl trimethylsilyl ether.     

Nitropyridyl isocyanates in 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reactions

The reactivity of 3‐nitro‐4‐pyridyl isocyanate ( 7 ) and 5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl isocyanate ( 9 ) in 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reactions with azides and pyridine N‐oxides has been investigated. 1,3‐Dipolar cycloaddition to trimethylsilylazide (TMSA) afforded the respective tetrazolinones, 1‐(3‐nitropyridin‐4‐yl)‐1H‐tetrazol‐5(4H)one ( 8 , 50 %) and 1‐(5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl)‐1H‐tetrazol‐5(4H)one ( 11 , 64 %). Respectively, 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of nitropyridyl isocyanates 7 and 9 to 3,5‐dimethylpyridine N‐oxide ( 14 ), 3‐methylpyridine N‐oxide ( 21 ) and pyridine N‐oxide ( 22 ) gave the substituted amines, 3,5‐dimethyl‐N‐(3‐nitropyridin‐4‐yl)pyridin‐2‐amine ( 17 ), 3,5‐dimethyl‐N‐(5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl)pyridin‐2‐amine ( 20 ), N‐(5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl)pyridin‐2‐amine ( 24 ), 5‐methyl‐N‐(5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl)pyridin‐2‐amine ( 23 ) and 3‐methyl‐N‐(5‐nitropyridin‐2‐yl)pyridin‐2‐amine ( 25 ) in 65 ‐ 80 % yield, obtained by cycloaddition, rearrangement and decarboxylation. The results demonstrate that the nitropyridyl isocyanates ( 7,9 ) readily undergo 1,3‐dipolar cyloaddition reactions similar to phenyl isocyanates.
