A series of novel tricyclic pyrimidine-fused 1,5-benzodiazepines (PFBZDs) was synthesized using an enaminone-based approach. The key step in the synthetic strategy involves the formation of the CCNMe₂ structure on vicinal carbonyl groups of the 1H-1,5-benzodiazepine-2,4(3H,5H)-dione (BZD).

Under basic catalysis conditions the reaction of 4- and 4'-substituted chalcones with o-phenylenediamine leads to 2,3-dihydro-2,4-diaryl-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines; -amino adducts, the ability of which to undergo intramolecular condensation increases as the basicity of the catalyst is increased, are formed as intermediates.

It is concluded that conformational factors play a primary role in the direction of the reaction.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 697–700, May, 1980.     

Lewis Acid-Mediated Ring Contraction of 2,4-Diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines: Access to 2-Aryl-1-styrylbenzimidazoles

2,4-Diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines readily undergo a ring contraction to generate 2-aryl-1-styrylbenzimidazoles in the presence of some Lewis acids. Copper acetate shows high efficiency compared with other Lewis acids.

Catalytic conversion of cellulose into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in high yields via a two-step process

As a key renewable chemical for plastics and fine chemicals, the preparation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) from biomass is an important research topic. Cellulose, although abundant in nature, is difficult to convert to 5-HMF in good yields due to its recalcitrant and heterogeneous nature. In this work, we show an efficient two-step process for converting microcrystalline cellulose into 5-HMF with ionic liquids under mild conditions. In the first step, high glucose yields of above 80% could be obtained from the cellulose hydrolysis by a strong acidic cation exchange resin in 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium chloride ([EMIM][Cl]) with gradual addition of water. In the second step, the resin was separated from the reaction mixture and CrCl₃ was added which lead to a 5-HMF yield of 73% based on cellulose substrate. The strategy can allow practical conversion of biomass into bio-derived products.
