The structure and spatial conformation of 3-alkyl-3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-8-spiro-5′-hydantoins and 8-alkyl-8-azabicyclo[4.3.1]decane-10-spiro-5-hydantoins has been determined on the basis of the data from ¹H nmr. The chair conformation of the piperidine ring and the presence of only one stereoisomer at the spiro carbon atom are corroborated. All these facts have been confirmed by x-ray diffraction methods (2).     

Synthesis,structural, conformational and pharmacological study of new fentanyl derivatives of the camphidine system

A series of N-phenethyl-8-β-amidocamphidines 4a-f (3-phenethyl-8-β-(N-arylamido)-3-azabicyclo-[3.2.1]octane) has been designed, synthesized and stereochemically characterized as semirigid analogous of the 4-anilidopiperidine analgesics in an attempt to study the influence of certain stereochemical factors on analgesia in this class of compounds. In deuteriochloroform and deuteriobenzene solution, compounds 4a-f display the same preferred conformation. The cyclopentane and piperidine rings adopt an envelope and distorted chair conformation respectively flattened at N-3, with the N and C-8 substituents in equatorial and axial positions with respect to the piperidine ring. In vivo pharmacological testing demonstrated that compounds 4a-f were inactive in the analgesic test, with the exception of compound 4f which showed an ED₅₀ of 250 mg/kg p.o.     

Nitrogen bridgehead compounds. Part 80 unusual reaction of ethyl 9-bromo-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetr ahydro-4h-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates and N-Methylaniline

The acid-catalysed intramolecular nucleophilic addition of the phenyl ring to the C(9a) = N(1) double bond of ethyl 9-(N-methyl-N-phenyl)-4-oxotetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates, formed in the reactions of ethyl 9-bromo-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates and N-methylaniline, gave the first examples of a new tetracyclic pyrimido[1′,2′:1,2]pyrido[3,2-b]indole ring system ( 7 ). X-ray diffraction analysis of 7a revealed that the annelation of the pyrimidine and piperidine rings is transoid, while that of the piperidine and pyrroline rings is cis, the piperidine ring adopts an unusual ⁶T₈ twisted boat conformation, while the pyrroline ring has a ⁹T_8a conformation.

Synthesis and characterization of novel triazenes from the reaction of the cyclic aminal 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo[4.3.1.1]undecane (TATU) with diazonium ions

The reaction of the cyclic aminal 1,3,6,8-tetraazatricyclo[4.3.1.1^3,8]undecane (TATU, 4) with diazonium salts resulted in the formation of a new series of bis-triazenes, namely 3,8-bis[(4-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl]-1,3,6,8-tetraazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane 6a, 3,8-bis[(2-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl]-1,3,6,8-tetraazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane 6b, 3,8-bis(p-tolyldiazenyl)-1,3,6,8-tetraazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane 6c. When aniline derived diazonium salt 5d was coupled with TATU, 3,8-bis(phenyldiazenyl)-1,3,6,8-tetraazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane 6d and bis[1,5-bis-((E)-phenyldiazenyl)-1,3,5-triazepan-3-yl]methane 7 were obtained. These compounds were characterized by HR-MS, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and 2D-NMR. Additionally, the structure of compound 7 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography.     

Proton magnetic resonance studies of compounds with bridgehead nitrogen: XXVIII—Stereochemical studies with perhydropyrido[1,2-c] [1,6,3]dioxazocines and 2-alkylperhydropyrido[1,2-c] [1,3,6]oxdiazocines

A series of perhydropyrido[1,2-c][1,6,3]dioxazocines and 2-alkylperhydropyrido[1,2-c][1,3,6]oxdiazocines have been prepared. 6-p-Nitrophenyl-3,4-dimethylperhydropyrido[1,2-c][1,6,3]-dioxazodioxazocine is shown to adopt the cis fused ring conformation in solution with the nitrogen lone pair axial with respect to the piperidine ring. The 2-alkylperhydropyrido[1,2-c][1,3,6]oxdiazocines adopt a similar cis fused ring conformation and with increasing steric requirement of the 2-alkyl substituent the 8-membered ring increasingly favours the chair-chair conformation, rather than the chair–boat conformation favoured by the 2-methyl substituted compound.     

Synthesis,structural and conformational study of N-β(or γ)-acyloxyalkylnortropinones

A series of N-β(γ)-acyloxyalkylnortropinones have been synthesized and studied by ¹H and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy, and the crystal structure of N-[γ-(p-chlorophenylcarbonyloxy)propyl]nortropinone 4 has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The compounds studied display in deuteriochloroform solution the same preferred conformation. The pyrrolidine and piperidone rings adopt a flattened N-8 envelope and distorted chair conformation, puckered at N-8 and flattened at C-3 respectively, with the N-substituent in axial position with respect to the piperidone ring. These results are in close agreement with that found for compound 4 in the crystalline state.     

Conformational and configurational studies on 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (3-abn) derivatives and related systems employing carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy

The ¹³C nmr spectra of 4 cis-2,4-diphenyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes, 11 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-9-ones, 26 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-9-ols or acetates thereof, 5 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabi-cyclo[4.3.1]decan-10-ones or -10-ols and 5 cis-2,4-diphenyl-3-aza-7-thiabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones, -9-ols or 9-yl acetates have been recorded. Except for the 7-thia compounds, which appear to exist mainly in the configuration and conformation with the nitrogen-containing ring in the boat form, these compounds seem to exist overwhelmingly in chair-chair conformations. The configuration of the 9-ols and their acetates (syn or anti to the nitrogen-containing ring) has been deduced from the spectra. In a number of cases, the structures assigned differ from those earlier postulated. Broadening of one set of aryl signals (probably those due to the ortho carbons) in the case of N-methyl (but not N-H) compounds without ortho substituents is ascribed to restricted phenyl rotation.     

Effect of Through‐Bond Interaction on Conformation and Structure in Rod‐Shaped Donor–Acceptor Systems. Part 2.

The crystal structures of seven N‐aryltropan‐3‐one (=8‐aryl‐8‐azabicyclo[3.2.1]octan‐3‐one) derivatives 1T1, 2T1, 2T2, 3T2, 5T2, 2T3 , and 3T3 are presented (Fig. 2 and Tables 1–5) and discussed together with the derivatives 1T2 and 4T2 published previously. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation. In all structures, the aryl group is in the axial position, with the plane through the aryl C‐atoms nearly perpendicular to the mirror plane of the piperidine ring. The through‐bond interaction between the piperidine ring N‐atom (one‐electron donor) and the substituted exocyclic C?C bond (acceptor) not only elongates the central C? C bonds of the piperidine ring but also increases the pyrimidalization at C(4) of the piperidine ring. Flattening of the C(2)–C(6) part of the piperidine ring decreases the through‐bond interaction.     

Rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of OH radicals with a series of bi- and tricycloalkanes at 299 ± 2 K: Effects of ring strain

Relative rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of OH radicals with a series of bi- and tricyclic alkanes have been determined at 299 ± 2 K, using methyl nitrite photolysis in air as a source of OH radicals. Using a rate constant for the reaction of OH radicals with cyclohexane of 7.57 × 10^?12 cm³/molec·s, the rate constants obtained are (× 10¹² cm³/molec·s): bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, 5.53 ± 0.15; bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, 14.8 ± 1.0; bicyclo[3.3.0]octane, 11.1 ± 0.6; cis-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane, 17.3 ± 1.3; trans-bicyclo[4.3.0]nonane, 17.8 ± 1.3; cis-bicyclo[4.4.0]decane, 20.1 ± 1.4; trans-bicyclo[4.4.0]decane, 20.6 ± 1.2; tricyclo[5.2.1.0^2,6]decane, 11.4 ± 0.4; and tricyclo[3.3.1.1^3,7]decane, 23.2 ± 2.1. These data show that overall ring strain energies of ?4–5 kcal mol^?1 have no significant effect on the rate constants, but that larger ring strain results in the rate constants being decreased, relative to those expected for the strain-free molecules, by ratios which increase approximately exponentially with the overall ring strain.     

Organoboron compounds : CCCXCIX. The matteson-pasto rearrangement in the series of 3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane compounds

Bromination of 3-isopropyl-7-methyl- and 3-isopropyl-7-bromomethyl-3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane leads to corresponding 3-(2-bromo-2-propyl) derivatives, which, on treatment with alcohols or pyridine as well as on heating, undergo the Matteson-Pasto rearrangement to convert into 3-X-4,4,8-trimethyl- and 3-X-4,4-dimethyl-8-bromomethyl-3-borabicyclo[4.3.1]decane (X = Br, OR). Interaction between triethylamine and 3-(2-bromo-2-propyl)-7-methyl-3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane is accompanied by dehydrobromination leading to 3-isopropenyl-7-methyl-3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane. Carbonylation of 3,4,4,8-tetramethyl-3-borabicyclo[4.3.1]decane at 140°C is accompanied by migration of two alkyl groups from the boron to the carbon atom, and subsequent oxidation with H₂O₂ produces 1-(2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-propyl)-3-acetonyl-5-methyl-cyclohexane. Under more forcing conditions (180-195°C), the third alkyl group also migrates to give, after oxidation, a mixture of isomeric 3,4,4,8-tetramethylbicyclo[4.3.1]decan-3-ols. 3-n-Butoxy-4,4-dimethyl-8-bromomethyl-3-borabicyclo[4.3.1]decane, on treatment with Lì, undergoes cyclization to afford 4,4-dimethyl-3-borahomoadamantane, carbonylation and subsequent oxidation of which gave 4,4-dimethylhomoadamantan-3-ol.     

Synthesis,structural, conformational and biochemical study of some 3β-acyloxytropan-3α-carboxylic acid hydrochlorides

A series of 3β-acyloxytropan-3α-carboxylic acid hydrochlorides have been synthesized and studied by ¹H and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy, and the crystal structure of 3β-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyloxy)tropan-3α-carboxylic acid hydrochloride 4c has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The compounds studied display in methanol-d₄ the same preferred conformation. The pyrrolidine and piperidine rings adopt a flattened N8 envelope and distorted chair conformation; puckered at N8 and flattened at C3 respectively with the N-substituent in equatorial position with respect to the piperidine ring. In all cases, there is only one mode (axial) of proton uptake at the piperidine nitrogen atom. These results are in close agreement with that found for compound 4c in the crystalline state. The inhibitory ability of the title compounds upon ³ H -GABA binding to sinaptosomal brain membranes is also reported.

The latter compound was prepared by ring expansion starting from the known 8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-on ( 1 ).     

Synthèse facile de dérivés du diphényl-2,4-aza-3-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane et du diphényl-7,8-aza-8-bicyclo[4.3.1]décane

Facile synthesis of derivatives of 2,4-diphenyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane and 7,9-diphenyl-8-azabicyclo[4.3.1]decane The facile synthesis of hydantoins, cyanhydrins and aminonitriles derived from 2,4-diphenyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanone and 7,9-diphenyl-8-azabicyclo[4.3.1]decanone is described. Configurations at C(9) or C(10) of the new compounds wth pharmaceutical and synthetical utility is deduced from their spectral properties.     

Mass spectra of azabicyclospirohydantoins

The mass spectra of some N-substituted nortropane and granataninespirohydantoins are compared with those of N-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-8-spiro-, 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-9-spiro-, 8-azabicyclo-[4.3.1]decane-10-spiro- and 3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-9-spiro-5′-hydantoins. Mass spectra data of monothio- and dithio-tropanespirohydantoins are also included. Mass fragmentation and structure relationships of these molecules have been established.     

Synthesis and conversions of polyhedral compounds 19. Opening of ring of 1,3,6-triazohomoadamantane by electrophilic reagents

A new method has been developed for obtaining 8-nitro-1,3,6-triazahomoadamantane. By the action of electrophilic reagents on this compound, N-C bonds of the methylenediamino fragment are ruptured, forming derivatives of 1,4,8-triazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane. Depending on the conditions in reactions of 8-nitro-1,3,6-triazohomoadamantane with benzoyl chloride and nitrous acid, derivatives of either 1,4,8-triazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane or hexahydro-1,4-diazepine may be obtained. The formation of the latter proceeds through the above-mentioned derivatives of 1,4,8-triazabicyclo[4.3.1]decane.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 397–400, March, 1994.     

The structure of tricyclo[3.3.2.0]decane (hexahydrobullvalene) – A gas-phase electron diffraction (GED) study

The molecular structure of tricyclo[3.3.2.0^2.8]decane (hexahydrobullvalene) has been determined experimentally by gas-phase electron diffraction as well as by quantum chemical calculations. The bond lengths (twofold standard deviations in parentheses) in the skeleton [1.496(7) in the cyclopropane ring, 1.527(10) adjacent to it, 1.550(22) for the central bonds in the bridges and 1.548(16) Å for the bonds originating from the singular bridgehead] all can be explained in terms of the features of this cage hydrocarbon. All three CCC valence angles [113.0(8)° at the singular bridgehead, 112.8(12) adjacent to it and 122.3(20) adjacent to the skeletal cyclopropane ring] are larger than the regular tetrahedral angle on an sp³-hybridized carbon atom. The two-carbon bridges between the skeletal cyclopropane ring and the opposite bridgehead are twisted with a dihedral angle of 43(2)°, i.e. significantly less than the approximately 60° in n-butane in its synclinal (gauche) conformation.

4,4-Dialkyl-4-germacyclohexanones have been synthesized and their reactions studied. The diethyl ketone has been converted into N-(-dimethylaminopropyl)-2 aza-8,8-diethyl-8-germaspiro[4.5]decane ( 16 ). The biological properties of 16 have been examined in some detail. The reactions of this new ketone with some other reagents are reported.     

Synthesis of cyclic ethers via 5-exo iodonium assisted epoxide ring expansion.

The transannular cyclization of (Z,Z)-1-hydroxy-cyclonona-2,6-diene by iodonium assisted oxirane ring expansion was studied. The regioselectivity for the [4.3.1] vs [5.2.1] 10-oxabicyclo decane skeletons is high, and the iodine addition is also highly trans-selective. The results are rationalized in terms of a tricyclic oxonium ion intermediate.
