Zur Photodimerisierung von 3-Phenyl-2H-azirinen. Vorläufige Mitteilung

Irradiation of 3-phenyl-2H-azirine ( 2 ) in benzene solution with a high-pressure mercury lamp yields 4,5-diphenyl-1,3-diazabicyclo[3,1,0]hex-3-ene ( 4 ) and not 3-phenylimino-4-phenyl-1-azabicyclo[2,1,0]pentane ( 1 ), as had been reported previously by others [2]. 2-Methyl-3-phenyl-2H-azirine ( 3 ) yields on irradiation a 2:1 mixture of 2-exo, 6-exo- and 2-exdo, 6-exo-dimethyl-4,5-diphenyl-1,3-diazabicyclo[3,1,0]hex-3-ene (2-exo,6-exo- and 2-endo, 6-exo- 5 ). Irradiation of 2,3-diphenyl-2H-azirine ( 8 ) leads to the formation of 2,4,5-triphenyl-imidazole ( 9 ) and tetra-phenylpyrazine ( 10 ). The suggested reaction path for the generation of 9 and 10 is shown in Scheme 2.     

Photo- and thermal elimination of nitrogen from 4-phenyl- and 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,3-triazole

Phenylacetonitrile ( 2 ) (32%) and small amounts of benzyl methyl ether ( 3 ), benzonitrile ( 5 ) and methyl benzoate ( 6 ) were produced by irradiation of either 4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole ( 1 ) or 4-phenyl-5-deutero-1,2,3-triazole ( 7 ) in methanol at 254 nm. In methylene chloride, irradiation of 1 produced 2 (15%) and small amounts of 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine ( 8 ). Irradiation of 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,3-triazole ( 9 ) in methanol gave 2,4,5-triphenylimidazole ( 11 ) (4%) and trace amounts of diphenylacetonitrile ( 10 ), benzamide ( 12 ), and compounds 3 , 5 , and 6 . Irradiation of 2,3-diphenyl-2H-azirine ( 13 ) in methanol gave small amounts of 3 , benzaldehyde ( 4 ), and compounds 5 , 6 , 12 as well as 2,3,5,6-tetraphenylpyrazine ( 14 ) and in methylene chloride it gave 11 (16%) and small amounts of 4 , 5 , 14 , and acetophenone ( 15 ). On heating 4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole ( 1 ) in n-hexadecane, elimination of nitrogen at 290° left phenylacetonitrile ( 2 ) as the only identified product. Similar pyrolysis of 4,5-diphenyl-1,2,3-triazole ( 9 ) produced 2,3,5,6-tetraphenylpyrazine ( 14 ) along with an intractable material. An efficient thermal isomerization of 2,3-diphenyl-2H-azirine ( 13 ) gave 2-phenylindole ( 17 ).     

Photoinduzierte 1, 3-dipolare Cycloaddition von 3-Phenyl-2H-azirinen an Azodicarbonsäure-diäthylester. 32. Mitteilung über Photoreaktionen

Irradiation of 2, 2-dimethyl-3-phenyl- ( 1a ), 2, 3-diphenyl-2H-azirine ( 1b ) or the azirine-precursors 1-azido-1-phenyl-propene ( 2a ) and 1-azido-1-phenyl-ethylene ( 2b ), respectively, in benzene in the presence of azodicarboxylic acid diethylester, yields the corresponding 1, 2-carbethoxy-3-phenyl-Δ³-1, 2, 4-triazolines 4a–d (Scheme 1). Refluxing 4 ( a, c or d ) in 0, 2–0, 4M aqueous ethanolic potassium hydroxide leads to the formation of the 1-carbethoxy-3-phenyl-Δ²-1, 2, 4-triazolines 6 ( a, c or d ). Under the same conditions 4b is converted to 3, 5-diphenyl-1, 2, 4-triazole ( 7b , Scheme 2). In 10M aqueous potassium hydroxide solution heating of either 4 ( c or d ) or 6 ( c or d ) yields the 3-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazoles 7 ( c or d ). Photolysis of 1-carbethoxy-5, 5-dimethyl-3-phenyl-Δ²-1, 2, 4-triazoline ( 6a ) in benzene in the presence of oxygen and trifluoroacetic acid methylester gives the 5-methoxy-2, 2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-5-trifluoromethyl-3-oxazoline ( 13 , Scheme 5). 5, 5-Dimethyl-3-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazole seems to be the intermediate, which on losing nitrogen gives the benzonitrile-isopropylide ( 3a ).     

Five-Membered 2,3-Dioxo Heterocycles: XLV. Thermolysis of 5-Aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the Absence of Other Partners and in the Presence of Carbonyl Compounds

Aroyl(phenyl)ketenes generated by thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones undergo [4+2]-cyclodimerization to 3-aroyl-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2,4-diones. Heating of the latter leads to rearrangement with formation of 4-aroyloxy-6-aryl-3,5-diphenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. Thermolysis of 5-aryl-4-phenyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones in the presence of carbonyl compounds yields 6-aryl-5-phenyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-ones.

C(α),O-oximes were dilithiated with lithium diisopropylamide and condensed with three α,β-unsaturated ketones: (2E)-1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one, or (1E, 4E)-1,5-diphenyl-1,4-pentadien-3-one, or (3E)-4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one, followed by immediate acid cyclization to variously substituted 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles: 4,5-dihydro-5-phenyl-5-(2-phenylethenyl)isoxazoles, 4,5-dihydro-5-methyl-5-(2-phenylethenyl)isoxazoles, or 4,5-dihydro-5,5-di-(2-phenylethenyl)-isoxazoles.     

Synthesis of 4H-pyrazolo- and 4H-pyrrolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives

5-Methyl- and 6-methyl-2-phenyl-2H-indazole-4,7-diones were condensed with 2-aminobenzenethiol or 6-substituted-3-aminopyridine-2(1H)thiones 4 to produce a new type of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-pyrazolophenothiazin-4-ones or 8-substituted-7-aza-5-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-pyrazolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives. From 6-bromo-2,5-dimethyl-1,3-diphenyl-2H-isoindole-4,7-dione and 4 8-substituted-7-aza-2,5-dimethyl-1,3-diphenyl-4H-pyrrolophenothiazin-4-one derivatives were also prepared.     

Synthesis of 2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,4-thiazin-3-one 1,1-dioxides from methyl (styrylsulfonyl)acetate

Methyl (styrylsulfonyl)acetate ( 1 ) was shown to be a useful building block for the synthesis of 5-phenyl-2,3,5,6–4H-tetrahydro-1,4-thiazin-3-one (2), its 4-amino 3 , and 4-hydroxy 4 derivatives. Their 2-spirocyclopropanes 9, 10 , and 11 , and 2,7-diphenyl-6,7-dihydro-8H-pyrimido[5,4-b][1,4]thiazinc 5,5-dioxide ( 18 ) were also prepared from 1 .     

Thermische Reaktionen mit 3-Phenyl-2H-azirinen; 1, 3-dipolare Cycloadditionen und En-Reaktionen

Benzonitrile p-nitrobenzylide ( 5 ) undergoes 1,3-dipolar cyclo-additions in the presence of 3-phenyl-2H-azirines ( 1 ), yielding in benzene at 0° 2-(p-nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1,3-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-enes ( 7 , scheme 2). Under the basic conditions of the reaction mixture, 7 a and 7 b are partially converted to 2-(p-nitrophenyl)-4,5-diphenyl-1,6-dihydropyrimidines ( 8a, b ) which are dehydrogenated by oxygen to the corresponding pyrimidines 9a and 9b , respectively. 3-Phenyl-2H-azirines ( 1 ) form, on heating at 145° in xylene in the presence of the azalactone 32 (2,4-diphenyl-Δ²-oxazolin-5-one), 4-(aziridin-2′-yl)-2,4-diphenyl-Δ²-oxazolin-5-ones ( 33 , scheme 11). 33 arises from an ene reaction of the enol form of 32 with 1 . Similar ene reactions are observed with the azirines 1 and dimedone ( 37 , scheme 12). Under the ene reaction conditions (xylene, 145°), the non-isolated intermediate primary adducts ( 38a and 38b ) undergo rearrangements of the vinylcyclopane-cyclopentene type to give 6,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-1,3-diphenyl-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydroisoindole ( 40 ) and 6, 6-dimethyl-4-oxo-3-phenyl-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahedroindole ( 42 ), respectively.

IIa–IIf were found to undergo vinyl polymerization with ring-opening reaction accompanying the elimination of ketone groups in bulk. IIg was found to undergo the quantitative ring-opening reaction accompanying the elimination of benzophenone in solution to obtain polyketone without any side reaction.     

A study of the Claisen rearrangement of 7-(3-phenyl-2-propenyloxy)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one derivatives

Summary The Claisen rearrangement of 7-(3-phenyl-2-propenyloxy)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one (2 a) gave 7-hydroxy-8-(1-phenyl-2-propenyl)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one (3 a) and 2,3-dihydro-2,6-diphenyl-3-methyl-(7H)furo[2,3-h]-1-benzopyran-7-one (7 a). 2-Methyl-7-(3-phenyl-2-propenyloxy)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one (2 b) afforded4 b and7 b. 8-Methyl-7-(3-phenyl-2-propenyloxy)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one (12) gave only the alkali soluble product 7-hydroxy-8-methyl-6-(1-phenyl-2-propenyl)-3-phenyl-(4H)-1-benzopyran-4-one (13).3 a,4 b, and13 were further cyclized in acidic medium to9 a,10 b, and14 followed by dehydrogenation.This paper is dedicated to Dr. F.

Summary Reaction of 9(10H)-acridinone (2) with 3-chloro-3-phenyl-1-propyne under PTC conditions affords 1-methyl-2-phenyl-6H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-de]acridin-6-one (1 b), 10-(2-chloro-1-methyl-2-phenyl-ethenyl)-9(10H)-acridinone (4), 10-(3-phenyl-1-propynyl)-9(10H)-acridinone (7), and 10-(4-methylene-2,3-diphenyl-2-cyclobuteneylidenemethyl)-9(10H)-acridinone (5). The structure of the last compound which crystallizes in the triclinic system with the space group , was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Under the same conditions 10-(3-phenyl-2-propynyl)-9(10H)-acridinone (3) and 10-(3-phenyl-1-propynyl)-9(10H)-acridinone (6) were obtained from 9(10H)-acridinone (2) and 3-bromo-1-phenyl-1-propyne.

     

Photochemische Cycloadditionen von 3-Phenyl-2H-azirinen an Carbonsäurechloride. 35. Mitteilung über Photoreaktionen

Irradiation of 2, 3-diphenyl-2H-azirine ( 1a ) and 1-azido-1-phenyl-propene, the precursor of 2-methyl-3-phenyl-2H-azirine ( 1b ), in benzene, with a high pressure mercury lamp (pyrex filter) in the presence of acid chlorides yields the oxazoles 5a–d (Scheme 2). Photolysis of 2, 2-dimethyl-3-phenyl-2H-azirine ( 1c ) under the same conditions gives after methanolysis the 5-methoxy-2, 2-dimethyl-4-phenyl-3-oxazolines 7a, b, d , while hydrolysis of the reaction mixture leads to the formation of the 1, 2-diketones 8a, c, d (Scheme 4). The suggested reaction path for all these reactions is a 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition of the photochemically generated benzonitrilemethylides 2 to the carbonyl double bond of the acid chlorides to give the intermediates 4 , followed by either elimination of hydrogen chloride or solvolysis (Schemes 2 and 4). Irradiation of 1c in the presence of acetic acid anhydride leads via the intermediate 9 to the 5-hydroxy-3-oxazoline 10 and the 5-methylidene-3-oxazoline 11 (Scheme 5).     

Reactions of 3-hydrazino-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine with 4-arylidene-2-phenyl-5(4H)-oxazolones and 4-benzylidene-3-methyl-5(4H)-isoxazolone

3-Hydrazino-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine reacts with 4-arylidene-2-phenyl-5(4H)-oxazolones in toluene to give substituted acrylic acid hydrazides, and in glacial acetic acid to give substituted imidazolones. On the other hand the hydrazinotriazine reacts with 4-benzylidene-3-methyl-5(4H)-isoxazolone, probably via a 1,4 addition reaction followed by an elimination reaction, to give benzaldehyde 5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-ylhydrazone and 3-methyl-5(4H)-isoxazolone.     

Synthesis of new purine,pteridine, and other pyrimidine derivatives

The reaction of malononitrile dimer with phenyl isothiocyanate gave (6-amino-1-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-4-ylidene)malononitrile which was then used as starting material in the synthesis of pharmacologically important fused pyrimidine derivatives, such as 4-dicyanomethylidene-1,5-diphenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine, 6-cyano-4-dicyanomethylidene-7-methylsulfanyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4,5,8-hexahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine, 6-dicyanomethylidene-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-9H-purine, and 6-substituted 4-dicyanomethylidene-7-oxo-1-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4,7,8-hexahydropteridines.

Nitrosation of methyl and phenyl styryl ketoximes under oxygen. Formation of 4-nitro-1-hydroxypyrazole 2-oxides and 3,5-diphenyl-4-nitrato-4,5-dihydroisoxazole

The nitrosation of the oximes of 4-phenyl-3-buten-2-one and 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one under oxygen has been reinvestigated. In addition to 4-oxo- and 4-oximino-4H-pyrazole 1,2-dioxides previously reported, the reactions give 4-nitro-1-hydroxypyrazole 2-oxides. In the case of 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one oxime the nitrosation reaction also gives 3,5-diphenyl-4-nitrato-4,5-dihydroisoxazole. Evidence is presented suggesting that the nitrate ester is formed through the rearrangement of a peroxynitrite intermediate.     

SYNTHESIS OF SPIRO [1,3-BENZODIOXOLE-2,4′-(3′H) QUINAZOLINES]

Abstract

In the present investigation, the authors could obtain a new series of spiranes (1) through the reaction of the high potential quinone tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone with 2-aryl-3-phenyl-3H-quinazoline-4-thiones. Thus, 2,3-diphenyl- (2a), 2-p-tolyl-3-phenyl- (2b) and 2-p-anisyl-3-phenyl- (2c)-3H-quinazoline-4-thiones react readily with tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone, in boiling toluene, to give the corresponding spiro-1,3-benzodioxole-2,4′-(3′H)-quinazolines (1a-c), respectively.

Reaction of sulfene and dichloroketene with open-chain N,N-disubstituted α-aminomethyleneketones. Synthesis of N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides and of 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones

Cycloaddition of sulfene to N,N-disubstituted 3-amino-2-methyl-1-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones (I) and 3-amino-1,2-diphenyl-2-propen-1-ones (II) occurred in good to moderate yield only in the case of aliphatic N-substitution to give 4-dialkylamino-3,4-dihydro-(5-methyl-6-phenyl)(5,6-diphenyl)-1,2-oxathiin 2,2-dioxides. Polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to I and II occurred only in the former case, giving in good to moderate yield N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3,3-dichloro-3,4-dihydro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones which were dehydrochlorinated with DBN to N,N-disubstituted 4-amino-3-chloro-5-methyl-6-phenyl-2H-pyran-2-ones. In the reaction of 2-methyl-1-phenyl-3-diphenylamino-2-propen-1-one with dichloroketene, a product was isolated which was proven by uv, ir, nmr and chemical evidence to be the dipolar ion VI, the supposed intermediate of the polar 1,4-cycloaddition of dichloroketene to N,N-disubstituted enaminones.     

Synthesis and antifungal activities of 3,5-diphenyl-7-amino-[1,3]-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-6-nitrile derivatives

A series of novel 3,7-diphenyl-7-amino[1,3]-thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-6-nitrile derivatives 3 were synthesized by refluxing 2-amino-4-phenyl-1,3-thiazole 1 and arylidinemalononitrile 2 in propanol using NaOH as catalyst. Various synthesized products were characterized by ¹H NMR, mass spectrometry (MS), infrared (IR), and elemental analysis. Antifungal activities of the synthesized compounds were done by testing against Rhizoctonia solani and Drechslera orazae, two fungal pathogens causing diseases on rice crops.     

Zur Photochemie von 3,5-Diaryl-2-isoxazolinen. 30. Mitteilung über Photoreaktionen

Irradiation of 3,5-diphenyl- or 3-(p-tolyl)-5-phenyl-2-isoxazoline ( 12 and 13 , respectively) in benzene with a high-pressure mercury lamp yields 4,5-diphenyl- or 4-(p-tolyl)-5-phenyl-3-oxazoline ( 17 and 19 , respectively) and the β-amino-chalcones 18 or 20 in addition to benzaldehyde, benzonitrile and p-tolunitrile, respectively (scheme 6 and ‘Anmerkg.’ p. 2600). The 3-oxazolines 17 and 19 are formed by route a (scheme 8) via 3-phenyl- or 3-(p-tolyl)-2H-azirine ( 23 , R = H and CH₃, respectively) and their photochemically rearranged successors, the nitrile methylides 24 , as intermediates. The discovery of this reaction has served as a basis for the quickly developing photochemistry of 3-aryl-2H-azirines [2] [24]. Photolysis of the 2-isoxazoline 13 in methanol leads to the formation of a mixture of syn/anti-p-tolyl trans-styryl ketoximes (syn/anti, trans- 30 ) and anti, cis- 30 , 2-(p-tolyl)-quinoline ( 29 ), the 4-hydroxymethylated derivative 32 of the latter (in small amounts), besides the β-aminochalcone 20 , benzaldehyde, p-tolualdehyde and p-tolunitrile (scheme 9). It could be shown that the stereoisomeric ketoximes 30 are photochemically interconvertible (scheme 12) and that at least one mechanism of formation of 2-(p-tolyl)-quinoline ( 29 ) is the photo-induced cyclisation of p-tolyl-cis-styryl ketoximes (cis- 30 ) (scheme 13). A tentative mechanism for the formation of p-tolual-dehyde is given in scheme 10; the crucial step is the protonation of p-tolunitrile methylide ( 24 , R = CH₃) by methanol at the nitrile carbon atom, after which hydrolysis yields the aldehyde.
