The Synthesis and Antimicrobial Screening of Some Novel AZA-Imidoxy Compounds as Potential Chemotherapeutic Agents

Some novel azaimidoxy compounds viz. 2-{[(4-chlorophenyl)diazenyl]oxy}-1H-isoindole-1,3-(2H)-dione (Va), and 1-{[1-naphthyldiazenyl]oxy}pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (IVc), etc. have been synthesized by a simple diazotization reaction followed by a coupling with 2-hydroxy-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (III)/1-hydroxypyrrolidine-2,5-dione (II) of corresponding aromatic primary amine derivatives at a suitable pH. A similar reaction with a [1,3]thiazolo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-amine (VIII) lead us to some interesting results variable with a pH. The structure of all synthesized compounds has been established by IR, ¹H NMR, and mass studies. These compounds have been screened for antimicrobial activities in order to evaluate the possibility of the derivatives to be used as potential chemotherapeutic agents.

Reaction of tricarbonyl[(1-4-η)-2-methoxy-5-vinylidene-cyclohexa-1,3-diene]iron derivatives with carbene: (2+1) cycloaddition for the rapid synthesis of spiro[2,5]octane

Tricarbonyl[(1-4-η)-2-methoxy-5-methylene-cyclohexa-1,3-diene]iron (1a) and tricarbonyl[(1-4-η)-2-methoxy-5-isopropylene-cyclohexa-1,3-diene]iron (1b) complexes are unstable 4-vinylidene cyclohexanone equivalents and these react regio- and stereoselectively with carbenes and metallocarbenes to give spiro[2,5]octane ring system.

In cases where the carbene and metallocarbene contain a good bulky leaving group or an electron-withdrawing group, the cyclopropane ring-opening products are obtained.

The reaction of 1-(3-bromopropyl)-2,5-bis(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrole with cesium 5-methylsulfanyl-2-thioxo-1,3-dithiole-4-thiolate generated in situ gave previously unknown 4-{3-[2,5-bis(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]propylsulfanyl}-5-methylsulfanyl-1,3-dithiole-2-thione, and cross-coupling of the latter with 4,5-disubstituted 1,3-dithiole-2-thiones in the presence of triethyl phosphite afforded new substituted tetrathiafulvalenes containing a 2,5-bis(thiophen-2-yl)pyrrole fragment. Optical properties and electrochemical behavior of the synthesized compounds were studied, and their ability to undergo electropolymerization was confirmed.

Poly-Diels-Alder Addition with a Bisoxazole as Bisdiene and a Bismaleinimide as Bisdienophile

Abstract

The poly-Diels-Alder addition between the new bisdiene 1,4-bis(5-methoxy-2-oxazolyl)benzene (4) and N,N′-hexamethylene-bis[2-(2,5-dihydro-2,5-dioxo-pyrrole-1-yl) acetamide] (7) is described. The structure of the resulting polyadduct 12 was proved by ¹H NMR spectroscopy with the aid of the low-molecular-weight model compounds 1,4-bis(1,3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-1,3-dioxo-2-phenyl-pyrrolo[3,4-c] pyridine-4-yl)benzene (9) and N,N'-hexamethylene-bis[2-(1, 3-dihydro-7-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,3-dioxo-4-phenyl-pyrrolo [3,4-c]pyridine-2-yl)acetamide] (11). The reaction proceeds via the aromatization of the primarily formed cycloadducts. Polyadduct 12 shows a number average degree of polymerization P_n of about 11 – 12 (M_n = 8500 ? 9200 g/mol), calculated from ¹H NMR endgroup signals.     

Synthesis of the precursors of bis(trichloro-1,4-benzoquinonyl)tetrathiafulvalenes

In reaction with potassium butylxanthate and sodium tert-butyltrithionate, 2,5-dihydroxy-3,4,6,7-tetrachloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan forms the products from nucleophilic substitution of a chlorine atom, i.e., O-butyl S-(2,5-dihydroxy-4,6,7-trichloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl) xanthate and S-tert-butyl S-(2,5-dihydroxy-4,6,7-trichloro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-3-yl) trithiocarbonate respectively. Recyclization of the xanthate in concentrated sulfuric acid gave 4-(2,5-dihydroxy-3,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-1,3-dithiol-2-one, which was oxidized by iron trichloride to the corresponding benzoquinone. Cyclization of the trithiocarbonate in the presence of trifluoroacetic and p-toluenesulfonic acid led to 7-hydroxy-5,6,8-trichloro-3a,8b-dithiolo[4,5-b]benzo[d]furan-2-thione.Dedicated to Prof. A.

A new synthetic procedure to spiro[cyclohexane-1,3′-indoline]-2′,4-diones

A new synthetic pathway to spiro[cyclohexane-1,3′-indoline]-2′,4-diones was found starting from 3-chloromethylene-2-indolones 1 and Danishefsky's diene 2. Their synthesis consists of several steps involving the formation of the cycloadducts, the 6-chloro-4-trimethylsilyloxy-2-methoxyspiro[cyclohex-3-en-1,3′-indolin]-2′-one derivatives, transformed into spiro[cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1,3′-indoline]-2′,4-diones via 6-chloro-spiro[cyclohex-2-en-1,3′-indoline]-2′,4-dione intermediates.

Using a ‘one pot reaction’, starting from 1 and 2, compounds 7 were obtained in satisfactory overall yield.     

Syntheses of Conjugated Polymers for Photonics

Summary: By the Suzuki coupling reaction of 9,9-dioctyl-2,7-bis(1,3,2-dioxaborinan-2-yl)fluorene ( I ) and 3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl 2,5-dibromobenzenesulfonate ( II ) the alternating poly{[9,9-dioctylfluoren-2,7-diyl]-alt-[2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-phenoxysulfonyl)-1,4-phenylene]} ( III ) was synthesized. Alkaline hydrolysis of III gave a conjugated polyelectrolyte carrying sulfonic acid groups ( IV ).

Promotion of phosphaalkyne cyclooligomerisation by a Sb(v) to Sb(iii) redox process

A high yield of the tetraphosphaladderene, anti-tetraphosphatricyclo[4.2.0.0(2,5)]octa-3,7-diene, is obtained from reaction of the zirconocene 1,3-diphosphabicyclo[1.1.0]butane with Ph(2)SbCl(3) in THF or CH(2)Cl(2). Exploration of the reaction pathway using density functional theory suggests that an envelope-type adduct of Ph(2)SbCl and 1,3-diphosphabicyclo[1.1.0]butane plays a pivotal role in the reaction. The zwitterionic character of this intermediate species allows it to act simultaneously as both an ene and an eneophile, and a symmetry-allowed bimolecular reaction leads to the tetraphosphaladderene species via a spirocyclic intermediate.
