In the presence of a catalytic amount of molecular iodine (0.1 equiv.), the one-pot multi-component reaction of ethyl trifluoroacetoacetate 1, indan-1,3-dione 2, ammonium acetate 3 and aromatic aldehyde 4 mainly gave the ethyl-6′-hydroxy-1,3-dioxo-2′,4′-diaryl-6′-(trifluoromethyl)-1,3-dihydrospiro[indene-2,3′-piperidine]-5′-carboxylate derivatives 5, along with the minor product 2-trifluoromethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-indeno[1,2-b]pyridine derivatives 6.

New hexamethylated ferrocene derivatives containing thioether moieties (1,1′-bis[(tert-butyl)thio]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 3a , b )) or fused S-heteropolycyclic substituents (rac-1-[(1,3-benzodithiol- 2-yliden)methyl]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 5 ) and rac-1-[1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]-2,2′,3,3′,4,4′-hexamethylferrocene ( 14 )), as well as a series of ferrocene-substituted vinylogous tetrathiafulvalenes (1,1′-bis[1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 6a ), 1,1′-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 6b ), [1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21a ), [1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21b ), [1,2-bis(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21c ), [1-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b] [1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)-2-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene ( 21d )) were prepared and fully characterized. Their redox properties show that some of them are easily oxidized and undergo transformation to paramagnetic salts containing bis(maleonitriledithiolato)-metallate(III) anions [M(mnt)₂]⁻ (M=Ni, Pt; bis[2,3-dimercapto-κS)but-2-enedinitrilato(2⁻)]nickelate (1⁻) or -platinate (1⁻). The derivatives [ 3a ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 26 ), [ 3a ] [Pt(mnt)₂] ( 27 ), [Fe{(η⁵-C₅Me₄S)₂S}] [Ni(Mnt)₂] ( 28 ), [Fe{(η⁵-C₅Me₄S)₂S}] [Pt(mnt)₂] ( 29 ), [ 5 ] [Ni(mnt)₂]⋅ClCH₂CH₂Cl ( 30 ), [ 6a ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 31 ), [ 6a ] [Ni(mnt)₂]⋅ClCH₂CH₂Cl ( 31a ), [ 6a ] [Pt(mnt)₂] [ 32 ), and [ 6b ] [Ni(mnt)₂] ( 33 ) were prepared and fully characterized, including by SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) susceptibility measurements. X-Ray crystal-structural studies of the neutral ferrocene derivatives 6a , b , 21c , d , and 1,1′-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-oxoethyl]ferrocene ( 23 ), as well as of the charge-transfer salts 26 – 28 , 30 , and 31a , are reported. The salts 28 and 30 display both a D⁺A⁻A⁻D⁺ structural motif, however, with a different relative arrangement of the [{Ni(mnt)₂}₂]²⁻ dimers, thus giving rise to different but strong antiferromagnetic couplings. Salt 26 exhibits isolated ferromagnetically coupled [{Ni(mnt)₂}₂]²⁻ dimers. Salt 27 displays a D⁺A⁻D⁺A⁻ structural motif in all three space dimensions, and a week ferromagnetic ordering at low temperature. Salt 31a , on the contrary, shows segregated stacks of cations and anions. The cations are connected with each other in two dimensions, and the anions are separated by a 1,2-dichloroethane molecule.

Studies in spiroheterocycles,Part XV. Investigation of the reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)-indol-2-ones with thiourea and urea derivatives

The reaction of 3-(2-oxocycloalkylidene)indol-2-one 1 with thiourea and urea derivatives has been investigated. Reaction of 1 with thiourea and urea in ethanolic potassium hydroxide media leads to the formation of spiro-2-indolinones 2a-f in 40–50% yield and a novel tetracyclic ring system 4,5-cycloalkyl-1,3-diazepino-[4,5-b]indole-2-thione/one 3a-f in 30–35% yield. 3-(2-Oxocyclopentylidene)indol-2-one afforded 5′,6′-cyclopenta-2′-thioxo/ oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′(3′H)pyrimidin]-2(1H)-ones 2a,b and 3-(2-oxocyclohexylidene)indol-2-one gave 2′,4′a,5′,6′,7′,8′- hexahydro-2′-thioxo/oxospiro[3H-indole-3,4′ (3′H)-quinazolin]-2(1H)-ones 2c-f . Under exactly similar conditions, reaction of 1 with fluorinated phenylthiourea/cyclohexylthiourea/phenylurea gave exclusively spiro products 2g-1 in 60–75% yield. The products have been characterized by elemental analyses, ir pmr. ¹⁹F nmr and mass spectral studies.     

Reaction of 5-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide with electrophilic reagents: Bromine and nitric acid

Reactions of 5-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide with bromine and nitric acid lead to the electrophilic substitution of the hydrogen atom in the meta-position with respect to the nitro group. At thebromination the primarily formed 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide when kept in the solution loses an oxygen atom forming 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1-oxide and an isomerization product, 8-bromo-6-nitrospiro[3H-[2,1,4]benzoxadiazine-3,1′-cyclohexane] 4-oxide. The latter exposed to light turns into 4-bromo-6-nitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexane] 1,3-dioxide. The reaction of the initial 1,3-dioxide with nitric acid afforded 4,6-dinitrospiro[benzimidazole-2,1′-cyclohexan]-7-ol 1-oxide whose heating in o-dichlorobenzene resulted in 3,5-dinitro-1,8-diazatricyclo[7.5.0.0^2,7] tetradeca-2(7),3,5,8-tetraen-6-ol.     

A Novel,One‐Pot Four‐Component Route to 2′‐Thioxo‐2′,3′‐dihydrospiro[indole‐3,6′‐[1,3]thiazin]‐2‐one Derivatives

An efficient route to 2′,3′‐dihydro‐2′‐thioxospiro[indole‐3,6′‐[1,3]thiazin]‐2(1H)‐one derivatives is described. It involves the reaction of isatine, 1‐phenyl‐2‐(1,1,1‐triphenyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)ethan‐1‐one, and different amines in the presence of CS₂ in dry MeOH at reflux (Scheme 1). The alkyl carbamodithioate, which results from the addition of the amine to CS₂, is added to the α,β‐unsaturated ketone, resulting from the reaction between 1‐phenyl‐2‐(1,1,1‐triphenyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)ethan‐1‐one and isatine, to produce the 3′‐alkyl‐2′,3′‐dihydro‐4′‐phenyl‐2′‐thioxospiro[indole‐3,6′‐[1,3]thiazin]‐2(1H)‐one derivatives in excellent yields (Scheme 2). Their structures were corroborated spectroscopically (IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, and EI‐MS) and by elemental analyses.

The Diastereoselective Formation of 1,2,4-Trioxanes and 1,3-Dioxolanes by the reaction of endoperoxides with chiral cyclohexanones

1,4-Diphenyl-2,3-dioxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene ( 2 ), on treatment with a catalytic amount of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (Me₃SiOTf) in CH₂Cl₂ at ?78°, reacts with excess (?)-menthone ( 10 ) to give (1S,2S,4′aS,5R,7′aS)-4′a,7′a-dihydro-2-isopropyl-5-methyl-6′,7′-diphenylspiro[cyclohexane-1,3′-[7′H]cyclopenta-[1,2,4]trioxine] ( 11 ) and its (1R,2S,4′aR,5R,7′aR)-diastereoisomer 12 in a 1:1 ratio and in 21% yield. Repeating the reaction with 1.1 equiv. of Me₃SiOTf with respect to 2 affords 11 , 12 , and (1S,2S,3′a.R,5R,6′aS)-3′a,6′a-dihydro-2-isopropyl-5-methyl-3′a-phenoxy-5′-phenylspiro[cyclohexane-l,2′-[4′H]cyclopenta[1,3]dioxole] ( 13 ) together with its(1R,2S,3′aS,5R,6′aR)-diastereoisomer 14 in a ratio of 3:3:3:1 and in 56% yield. (+)-Nopinone( 15 ) in excess reacts with 2 in the presence of 1.1 equiv. of Me₃SiOTf to give a pair of 1,2,4-trioxanes ( 16 and 17 ) analogous to 11 and 12 , and a pair of 1,3-dioxolanes ( 18 and 19 ) analogous to 13 and 14 , in a ratio of 8:2:3:3 and in 85% yield. (?)-Carvone and racemic 2-(tert-butyl)cyclohexanone under the same conditions behave like 15 and deliver pairs of diastereoisomeric trioxanes and dioxolanes. In general, catalytic amounts of Me₃SiOTf give rise to trioxanes, whereas 1.5 equiv. overwhelmingly engender dioxolanes. Adamantan-2-one combines with 2 giving only (4′aRS,7′aRS)-4′a,7′a-dihydro-6′.7′a-diphenylspiro[adamantane-2,3′-[7′H]cyclopenta[1,2,4]trioxine] in 98% yield regardless of the amount of Me3SiOTf used. The reaction of 1,4-dipheny 1-2,3-dioxabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene ( 32 ) with 10 and 1.1 equiv. of Me3SiOTf produces only the pair of trioxanes 33 and 34 homologous to 11 and 12 . Treatment of the (S,S)-diastereoisomer 33 with Zn and AcOH furnishes (1S,2S)-1,4-diphenylcyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diol. The crystal structures of 11 – 13 and 16 are obtained by X-ray analysis. The reaction courses of 10 and the other chiral cyclohexanones with prochiral endoperoxides 2 and 32 to give trioxanes are rationalized in terms of the respective enantiomeric silylperoxy cations which are completely differentiated by the si and re faces of the ketone function. The origin of the 1,3-dioxolanes is ascribed to 1,2 rearrangement of the corresponding trioxanes, which occurs with retention of configuration of the angular substituent.

The reaction of 3-allylthio-5-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole with iodine to give a mixture of 5,6-dihydro-5-iodomethyl-3-phenyl[1,3]thiazolo[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazole, 6,7-dihydro-6-iodo-3-phenyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3]thiazine, 5,6-dihydro-6-iodomethyl-2-phenyl[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazole, and 6,7-dihydro-6-iodo-2-phenyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b][1,3]thiazine has been studied. The structure of the products obtained was established using ¹H NMR spectroscopy of their dehydriodination products.

Further, two new derivatives, 5 and 7 , were prepared in good yields by the reactions of 3 with the hexafluoropropene trimer 4 and 4-[perfluoro(2-isopropyl-1,3-dimethyl-1-butenyl)-oxybenzoyl chloride 6 , respectively. Their unique structural features and property are discussed based on ¹H-, ¹³C- and ¹⁹F nmr spectral data.

The chemical structures of the products were elucidated by their comprehensive spectroscopic (IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, ¹⁹F‐NMR, and Mass) as well as analytical analysis.
