Cycloadditions of 1-substituted 1,3-butadienes with 4- or 3-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones acting as dienophiles

Cycloadditions of 1,3-butadiene derivatives having an electron-rich group at the 1-position with 4- or 3-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones were carried out to give the richly functionalized phenanthridines under both atmospheric and high pressure conditions. Furthermore, the reactivity of 4- or 3-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones acting as a dienophile with 1-substituted dienes was examined using MO calculation.     

Synthesis of phenanthridones using Diels-Alder reactions of 4-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones acting as dienophiles

Diels-Alder reactions of 2(1H)-quinolones having an electron-withdrawing group at the 4-position with 1,3-butadiene derivatives were carried out to give the phenanthridones richly functionalized under the conditions of atmospheric and high pressure. Furthermore, the reactivities of 4-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones acting as a dienophile were examined using MO calculation.     

Novel Diels-Alder reaction of 4-nitro-1(2H)-isoquinolones

A novel Diels-Alder (DA) reaction with 4-nitro-1(2H)-isoquinolones acting as the dienophile afforded 5(6H)-phenanthridone derivatives. The DA reaction of 4-nitro-1(2H)-isoquinolone with 1-methoxy-1,3-butadiene gave biologically active 5(6H)-phenanthridone possessing in a high yield. Regioselectivity of 4-nitro-1(2H)-isoquinolones with 1-methoxy-3-silyloxy-1,3-butadiene was calculated using molecular orbital (MO) calculations.     

Cycloaddition of 2(1H)-pyridones having a methoxycarbonyl group to 1,3-butadiene derivatives

The cycloaddition of 4-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones to silyloxydienes gave isoquinolone derivatives in reasonable yields. Furthermore, the cycloaddition of 6-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones to 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene produced cycloadducts (isoquinolone and quinolone derivatives) and double cycloadducts (phenanthridone derivatives). The activation energies using Gaussian 98 with RHF/3-21G level of 4- and 6-methoxycarbonyl-2(1H)-pyridones coincided with the experimental facts.     

Diels-Alder cycloadditions of 2(1H)-quinolones having an electron-withdrawing group at the 3-position acting as dienophiles with dienes.

Diels-Alder cycloadditions of 2(1H)-quinolones having an electron-withdrawing group at the 3-position with alkyl- and silyloxy-1,3-butadienes (2a,b) were carried out to give phenanthridones richly functionalized regio- or stereoselectively under conditions of atmospheric and high pressure. Furthermore, regioselectivity and chemoselectivity of 3-substituted 2(1H)-quinolones to 2a, b were examined using MO calculation.     

Diels-Alder reactions of nitro-2(1H)-pyridones with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene

Diels-Alder (DA) reactions of 3- or 5-nitro-2(1H)-pyridones and nitro-2(1H)-pyridones containing a methoxycarbonyl group with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene were examined. The DA reactions of 3-nitro-2(1H)-pyridones in this paper represent, to the best of our knowledge, the first report of DA reactions of 3-substituted 2(1H)-pyridones and consequent production of isoquinolones. Performing the same reactions with 5-nitro-2(1H)-pyridones yielded quinolones. DA reactions of 2(1H)-pyridones with nitro and methoxycarbonyl groups produced isoquinolones, quinolones and phenanthridones (the double DA adducts), aromatized or hydrogenated. The substituent effect was evaluated by calculating the activation energy, using the ab initio MO method.     

Reactions of C2H with 1- and 2-butynes: an ab initio/RRKM study of the reaction mechanism and product branching ratios

Ab initio CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ(CBS)//B3LYP/6-311G** calculations of the C(6)H(7) potential energy surface are combined with RRKM calculations of reaction rate constants and product branching ratios to investigate the mechanism and product distribution in the C(2)H + 1-butyne/2-butyne reactions. 2-Ethynyl-1,3-butadiene (C(6)H(6)) + H and ethynylallene (C(5)H(4)) + CH(3) are predicted to be the major products of the C(2)H + 1-butyne reaction. The reaction is initiated by barrierless ethynyl additions to the acetylenic C atoms in 1-butyne and the product branching ratios depend on collision energy and the direction of the initial C(2)H attack. The 2-ethynyl-1,3-butadiene + H products are favored by the central C(2)H addition to 1-butyne, whereas ethynylallene + CH(3) are preferred for the terminal C(2)H addition. A relatively minor product favored at higher collision energies is diacetylene + C(2)H(5). Three other acyclic C(6)H(6) isomers, including 1,3-hexadiene-5-yne, 3,4-hexadiene-1-yne, and 1,3-hexadiyne, can be formed as less important products, but the production of the cyclic C(6)H(6) species, fulvene, and dimethylenecyclobut-1-ene (DMCB), is predicted to be negligible. The qualitative disagreement with the recently measured experimental product distribution of C(6)H(6) isomers is attributed to a possible role of the secondary 2-ethynyl-1,3-butadiene + H reaction, which may generate fulvene as a significant product. Also, the photoionization energy curve assigned to DMCB in experiment may originate from vibrationally excited 2-ethynyl-1,3-butadiene molecules. For the C(2)H + 2-butyne reaction, the calculations predict the C(5)H(4) isomer methyldiacetylene + CH(3) to be the dominant product, whereas very minor products include the C(6)H(6) isomers 1,1-ethynylmethylallene and 2-ethynyl-1,3-butadiene.     

Formation of [Ar*Ge(CH2C(Me)C(Me)CH2)CH2C(Me)=]2 (Ar* = C6H3-2,6-Trip2; Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3) via reaction of Ar*GeGeAr* with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene: evidence for the existence of a germanium analogue of an alkyne

The reduction of Ar*GeCl (Ar* = C6H3-2,6-Trip2; Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3) with one equivalent of potassium leads to the formation of a germanium analogue of an alkyne Ar*GeGeAr* 1; reaction of 1 with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene yields [Ar*Ge(CH2C(Me)C(Me)CH2)CH2C(Me)=]2 2, which was structurally characterized.

Abstract

New 6-purineselenyl, 1, 3, 4-thiadiazols bearing 7-benzyl-1,3-dimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-(3H,7H)-diones and (8-[2-(3-phenyl-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-ylidene) hydrazinyl)-7-benzyl-1,3-dimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-(3H,7H)-diones derivatives were synthesized. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and MS spectrometry) and elemental analysis.     

Synthesis of quinolines, 2-quinolones, phenanthridines, and 6(5h)-phenanthridinones via palladium[0]-mediated Ullmann cross-coupling of 1-bromo-2-nitroarenes with beta-halo-enals, -enones, or -esters

Palladium[0]-mediated Ullmann cross-coupling of 1-bromo-2-nitrobenzene (1 R = H) and its derivatives with a range of beta-halo-enals, -enones, or -esters readily affords the corresponding beta-aryl derivatives, which are converted into the corresponding quinolines, 2-quinolones, phenanthridines, or 6(5H)-phenanthridinones on reaction with dihydrogen in the presence of Pd on C or with TiCl(3) in aqueous acetone.

2,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,3-butadien

2,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,3-butadiene A method for synthesis of the title compound is described, using the readily available 2,3-bis(diphenylphosphinoyl)-1,3-butadiene ( 1 ) as the starting material. For the protection of the diene system, 1 is first converted into the 1,4-dibromo- and 1,4-dichloro derivatives 2a and b , respectively, by addition of Br₂ or Cl₂, respectively. The structure of 2b has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule has a centrosymmetrical (E)-configuration. Reduction of the phosphinoyl groups by HSiCl₃(to give the bis(diphenylphosphino)compound 3), followed by removal of the Cl-atoms using Zn powder, affords the bis(diphenylphosphino)butadiene 4 . Compounds 3 and 4 give quaternary phosphonium salts 5 and 6 , respectively, on addition of CH₃OSO₂F or CH₃I. The sulfur analogue of 1 is formed on treatment of 4 with elemental sulfur.     

Synthesis of conjugated (1E,3E)- and (1Z,3Z)-1,4-di(n-pyridyl) (or n-quinolyl)-1,3-butadienes from n-(2′-chloroethenyl)pyridine (or quinoline)

The homocoupling reaction between the conjugated n-(2-chloroethenyl)pyridine; n, 2-, 3- and 4- (or quinoline; n, 2- and 4-) mediated by zero-valent nickel complexes at room temperature affords to the corresponding 1,4-diaryl-1,3-butadiene, always as the 1E,3E stereoisomer. The yield in 1,4-diaryl-1,3-butadiene increases with the nickel catalyst and hence, the active zero-valent nickel catalyst is not regenerated during the homocoupling reaction.The stereospecific synthesis of (1Z,3Z)-1,4-di(4′-pyridyl)-1,3-butadiene stereoisomer was efficiently carried out by partial hydrogenation of the appropriate 1,4-di(4′-pyridyl)-1,3-butadiyne.     

Photofragment translational spectroscopy of 1,3-butadiene and 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d(4) at 193 nm

The photodissociation dynamics of 1,3-butadiene at 193 nm have been investigated with photofragment translational spectroscopy coupled with product photoionization using tunable VUV synchrotron radiation. Five product channels are evident from this study: C(4)H(5) + H, C(3)H(3) + CH(3), C(2)H(3) + C(2)H(3), C(4)H(4) + H(2), and C(2)H(4) + C(2)H(2). The translational energy (P(E(T))) distributions suggest that these channels result from internal conversion to the ground electronic state followed by dissociation. To investigate the dissociation dynamics in more detail, further studies were carried out using 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d(4). Branching ratios were determined for the channels listed above, as well as relative branching ratios for the isotopomeric species produced from 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d(4) dissociation. C(3)H(3) + CH(3) is found to be the dominant channel, followed by C(4)H(5) + H and C(2)H(4) + C(2)H(2), for which the yields are approximately equal. The dominance of the C(3)H(3) + CH(3) channel shows that isomerization to 1,2-butadiene followed by dissociation is facile.     

Access to C(sp3)-C(sp2) and C(sp2)-C(sp2) bond formation via sequential intermolecular carbopalladation of multiple carbon-carbon bonds

A synthetic strategy of 4-benzyl-substituted 1,3-butadiene derivatives through Pd-catalyzed three-component coupling reaction of benzyl chlorides, alkynes, and monosubstituted alkenes is described. This tandem coupling reaction forms a C(sp(3))-C(sp(2)) bond and a C(sp(2))-C(sp(2)) bond sequentially in a single-step operation.     

Synthesis of 1-(2-polyfluoroacylaminophenyl)-3-polyfluoroalkylpropane-1,3-diones and 2-polyfluoroalkyl-4-quinolones

The condensation of 2-aminoacetophenone with R^FCO₂Et (R^F = CF₃, CF₂H, CF₂CF₂H) in the presence of LiH in THF or Bu^tOK in Bu^tOH affords either 2-polyfluoroalkyl-4-quinolones or 1-(2-polyfluoroacylaminophenyl)-3-polyfluoroalkylpropane-1,3-diones, depending on the ratio of the initial reactants. The latter are hydrolyzed in an acidic medium to produce 2-polyfluoroalkyl-4-quinolones. N-Methyl-2-trifluoromethyl-4-quinolone was synthesized from 2-aminoacetophenone, CF₃CO₂Et, and MeI in the presence of Bu^tOK.     

Mechanistic studies of the pyrolysis of 1,3-butadiene, 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d4, 1,2-butadiene, and 2-butyne by supersonic jet/photoionization mass spectrometry

The thermal decomposition of 1,3-butadiene, 1,3-butadiene-1,1,4,4-d(4), 1,2-butadiene, and 2-butyne at temperatures up to 1520 K was carried out by flash pyrolysis on a approximately 20 mus time scale. The reaction products were isolated by supersonic expansion and detected by single-photon (lambda = 118 nm) vacuum-ultraviolet time-of-flight mass spectrometry (VUV-TOFMS). Direct detection of CH(3) and C(3)H(3), as well as C(3)H(4), C(4)H(4), and C(4)H(5) products, provides insight into the initial steps involved in the complex pyrolysis of these C(4)H(6) species below T = 1500 K. The similar pyrolysis product distributions for the C(4)H(6) isomers on such a short time scale support the previously proposed mechanism of facile isomerization of these species. Isomerization of 1,3-butadiene to 1,2-butadiene and subsequent C-C bond fission of 1,2-butadiene to produce CH(3) and C(3)H(3) (propargyl) are most likely the primary initial radical production channel in the 1,3-butadiene pyrolysis.     

Highly efficient synthesis of stereodefined multisubstituted 1,4-dicyano- and 1-cyano-1,3-butadienes and their reactions with organolithium reagents

Stereodefined multisubstituted 1-cyano- and 1,4-dicyano-1,3-butadiene derivatives were obtained in excellent yields of the isolated product from their corresponding monohalo- and dihalobutadienes and CuCN. This reaction proceeded with high stereoselectivity and retention of the stereochemistry of the starting halobutadienes. A study of the utility of the thus-obtained 1-cyano- and 1,4-dicyano-1,3-butadiene derivatives was demonstrated by their reactions with organolithium reagents. 2H-Pyrrole or iminocyclopentadiene derivatives were formed in high yields from 1-cyano-4-halo-1,3-butadienes and organolithium reagents. When 1,4-dicyano-1,3-butadienes were treated with organolithium reagents followed by trapping with electrophiles, a tandem process took place to afford 2H-pyrrolyl nitriles in excellent yields. Reduction of 1,4-dicyano-1,3-butadiene derivatives with LiAlH4 showed novel reaction patterns relative to normal nitriles.

The antiviral activities of these compounds against Hepatitis A virus (HAV, MBB-cell culture adapted strain) and Herpes simples virus type-1 (HSV-1) were tested.
