The reaction of 4-oxo-1-benzopyran-2-carboxylic acid ( I ) with carbodi-imides 2 yield N-acylureas 3 . These N-acylureas are easly cyclised in ethanol to yield the corresponding spiro-4-oxo-1-benzopyrans 4 .     

Recherches en série triazépine-1,2,4: II — Etude de la réaction de l'acétylacétate d'éthyle avec les diamino-3,4 oxo-5 dihydro-4,5 triazines-1,2,4

The reaction of 3,4-diamino-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-l,2,4-triazine or its 6-methyl or 6-phenyl substituted derivatives and ethyl acetoacetate gave three compounds: 4,7-dioxo-9-methyl-1,4,6,7-tetrahydro-as-triazino[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazepine in poor yield, isomeric 4,9-dioxo-7-methyl-1,4,8,9-tetrahydro-as -triazino[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazepine and by competitive cyclisation, 2-methyl-7-oxo-3,7-dihydro-s-triazolo[3,2-c]-1,2,4-triazine. By condensation of 3-methylamino-4-amino-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine with ethyl acetoacetate, the formation of 4,9-dioxo-7,10-dimethyl-4,8,9,10-tetrahydro-as-triazino[4,3-b]-1,2,4-triazepine was strongly favored.     

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.     

Etude par Spectrométrie de Masse de la Fragmentation d'une Série de Diols Aliphatiques

The mass spectrometric fragmentation of a series of diols having the general formula HO? (CH₂)_n? OH with n = 2-11 has been studied. Extensive labelling of n-butane-1,4 diol and n-hexane-1,6 diol with deuterium allows fragmentation modes to be proposed. The labelling reveals that intramolecular exchange of H atoms often precedes the fragmentation and becomes more important when the length of the chain increases.     

Synthèse et réactions de didésoxy-5,6-halogéno-6-α-D-xylo-hepténo-5-furannurononitriles. Communication préliminaire

Synthesis and reactions of 5,6-dideoxy-6-halogeno-α-D-xylo-hept-5-eno-furanurononitriles The 5,6-dideoxy-6-chloro-, 6-iodo- and 6-fluoro-3-O-methyl-α-D -xylo-hept-5-eno-furanurononitriles have been prepared, their properties described as well as the methods used for the assignment of the configuration of the geometrical isomers. Some new reactions of the 6-bromo analog ( 1 ) of these compounds are reported. For example, when reacted with 2-mercaptoethanol or N,N′-dimethyl-ethylenediamine in the presence of NaOH, 1 gave the corresponding six-membered ring, stereo-isomers of an oxathiane or of a perhydrodiazine respectively. When the base used was Et₃N and the binucleophile the N-methyl-ethanolamine or the N,N′-dimethyl-ethylene-diamine the major product was a cyano-enamine which could be hydrolysed to a β-cyanoketone or cyclized to a five-membered ring, an oxazolidine or an imidazolidine respectively.

Acid-catalyzed reactions of N-(carboxyalkyl)ureas with 1,3-dialkyl-4,5-dihydroxy-4,5-diphenylimidazolidine-2-thiones in methanol or propan-2-ol led to the formation of previously unknown ω-(4,6-dialkyl-2-oxo-3a,6a-diphenyl-5-thioxooctahydroimidazo[4,5-d]imidazol-1-yl)alkanoic acids and their methyl and isopropyl esters. The structure of some esters was proved by X-ray analysis. Methyl (4,6-diethyl-2-oxo-3a,6adiphenyl-5-thioxooctahydroimidazo[4,5-d]imidazol-1-yl)acetate showed anxiolytic effect.

Sugar Free Radicals. VIII. Spin-Labeled Nucleosides Analogs A series of 5′-deoxy-5′-hydroxylamino derivatives of adenosine and uridine have been prepared by reduction of the corresponding oxime or nitrone. ‘Second generation’ 3′-deoxy-3′-N-aryl(or N-alkyl) hydroxylamino-β-D -xylofuranosyluracils have also been synthesized by a one-pot reaction including the following elementary steps: deblocking of the starting material, reduction of the 3′-deoxy-3′-oximinouridine, condensation of the resulting hydroxylamine with an aldehyde, reduction of the nitrone formed. The deoxy-hydroxylaminonucleosides oxidized spontaneously in the air (or in presence of traces of PbO₂) to give the corresponding nitroxide free radicals, ESR spectra of which furnished useful informations on their structures. Some of these modified nucleosides bore notable cytotoxic or antiviral activities.     

Sur le mécanisme de la réaction de meth-cohn-tarnowski de préparation des thiocoumarines

Reaction of 2-t-butylthiobenzaldehyde with N-(2-dialkylaminoethyl)-cyanacetamides followed by heating of the resulting 3-(2-t-butylthiophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylamides in polyphosphoric acid leads to the formation of 3-carboxamido-2-imino-2H-benzo[b][l]thiopyrann intermediates which afford thiocoumarins on hydrolysis. The authors postulate the intermediate formation of a thiophenate ion by an electronic mechanism involving six centers.     

Action de l'anhydride acétique sur les (aziridinyl-1)-2 tétra-hydropyrannes et sur les dialkylamino-2 tétrahydropyrannes: Influence des substituants de l'azote sur l'orientation de la réaction

The 2-(1-aziridinyl)tetrahydropyrans cannot be obtained by aminolysis of the 2-dialkylaminotetrahydropyrans. These compounds are synthesized by the Hofmann reaction between 2-chlorotetrahydropyrans and ethylenimine. The effect of acetic anhydride on the 2-(1-aziridinyl) and 2-dialkylaminotetrahydropyrans was studied. The 2-dimethylaminotetrahydropyrans were converted into 2-acetoxytetrahydropyrans and dimethylacetamide by cleavage of the carbon-nitrogen bond. Ring opening of the oxygen heterocycle gives the corresponding dialkylacetamides and polymerised products. The 2-(1-aziridinyl)tetrahydropyrans allow the synthesis of the N-(2-tetrahydropyrannyl)-N-(2-acetoxy-ethyl)acetamides. Acetic anhydride ring opens the nitrogen heterocycle.     

Reaction of 5-arylfuran-2(3<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-ones with amines

5-(4-Chlorophenyl)- and 5-phenylfuran-2(3H)-ones reacted with guanidine carbonate at the methylene group in the unsaturated lactone molecule, leading to the formation of 4-(2-aryl-5-oxo-2,5-dihydrofuran-2-yl)-5-aryltetrahydrofuran-2-ones, while 5-(4-methylphenyl)furan-2(3H)-one under analogous conditions gave rise to N,N′-bis[4-(4-methylphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl]guanidine. The reactions of 5-arylfuran-2(3H)- ones with thioacetamide afforded 4-aryl-N-{1-[5-aryl-2-oxo-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-ylidene]ethyl}-4-oxobutanamides. The corresponding N-(4-aryl-4-oxobutanoyl)thioureas were obtained by heating 5-arylfuran-2(3H)-ones with thiourea.

The structures of dichloro{2‐[(5‐methyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐yl‐κN²)methyl]‐1H‐1,3‐benzimidazole‐κN³}copper(II), [CuCl₂(C₁₂H₁₂N₄)], and di‐μ‐chloro‐bis(chloro{2‐[(5‐methyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐3‐yl‐κN²)methyl]‐1H‐1,3‐benzimidazole‐κN³}­cadmium(II)), [Cd₂Cl₄(C₁₂H₁₂N₄)₂], show that these compounds have the structural formula [ML(Cl)₂]_n, where L is 2‐[(5‐methylpyra­zolyl)methyl]benzimidazole. When M is copper, the complex is a monomer (n = 1), with a tetrahedral coordination for the Cu atom. When M is cadmium (n = 2), the complex lies about an inversion centre giving rise to a centrosymmetric dimer in which the Cd atoms are bridged by two chloride ions and are pentacoordinated.

The treatment of 2-coumaranone with the Vilsmeier reagent affords three products: 2-chloro-3-benzofurancarboxaldehyde ( 3 ), 3-dimethylaminomethylene-2-(3H)benzofuranone ( 4 ), and 3-dimethylaminomethylene-2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-6-benzofurancarboxaldehyde ( 5 ).
