Conjugation and hyperconjugation in conformational analysis of cyclohexene derivatives containing an exocyclic double bond

The equilibrium geometry, ring-inversion pathway barriers for analogues of cyclohexene with an exocyclic double bond have been studied using the MP2/6-311 G(d,p) level of theory. The equilibrium conformation of the ring depends on conjugation between the endocyclic and exocyclic double bonds. Interactions between conjugated double bonds include the pi-pi conjugation and interactions between the lone pair of the heteroatom of the exocyclic double bond and the sigma-antibonding orbital of the endocyclic single bond. In the case of the tetrahydrocycles with double bonds separated by a methylene group the balance between the pi --> sigma* hyperconjugation interactions between the exocyclic double bond and the neighboring methylene group and the n --> sigma* interaction between the lone pair of the heteroatom and the sigma-antibonding orbitals of the C(sp(2))-C(sp(3)) bond determine the geometrical parameters of the ring. The character of the potential-energy surface around the saddle point depends on the position of the exocyclic double bond and the orientation of the hydrogen atom attached to the heteroatom of the V group of the periodic table in the tetrahydrocycles with double bonds separated by a methylene group.     

An easy access to 2-Amino-5,6-dihydro-3H-pyrimidin-4-one building blocks: The reaction under conventional and microwave conditions

Summary A new one-stage fast multicomponent synthesis of title compounds leads to products in 21–55% isolated yields under both conventional and microwave conditions. The primary amino group in the building blocks can be easily acylated by various usual electophilic agents that can be utilized in the synthesis of diverse heterocylic compounds libraries.     

Cyclecondensation of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole with substituted methyl cinnamates

The reaction of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole ( 1 ) with substituted methyl cinnamates 2a-h leads selectively to the formation of 7-aryl-6,7-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(4H)-ones 3a-h . The structure eluci dation of the products is based on ir, ¹H and ¹³C nmr measurements and X-ray diffraction.     

Local canted spin behaviour in Co1.4−x Zn x Ge0.4Fe1.2O4 spinels: A macroscopic, mesoscopic and microscopic study

DC magnetization, neutron depolarization and neutron diffraction (with both polarized and unpolarized neutrons) measurements have been reported for the Co_1.1−x Zn _x Ge_0.1Fe_1.2O₁ spinels with x=0.5, 0.6 and 0.7. Neutron depolarization and neutron diffraction measurements confirm the presence of a long range ferrimagnetic ordering of the local canted spins in these ferrite samples. The observed features of low field magnetization have been explained under the framework of thermally activated domain wall movement of ferrimagnetic arrangement of local canted spins. An important role of magnetic anisotropy (due to the presence of Co²⁺ ions) in establishing the magnetic ordering and domain kinetics in these ferrites has been observed.     

Tautomerism of diazepines fused with pyrimidine rings

The tautomerism of 1,4‐diazepines fused with pyrimidine rings was studied by means of nmr spec‐troscopy, X‐ray analysis and quantum chemical calculations. It was found that in the case of 6,8‐diphenyl‐pyrimido[4,5‐b][1,4]diazepin‐4‐ols (7a ‐ e) the enamine form is more stable than the diimine form. This result is rationalized with the electron‐withdrawing effect of the 4‐hydroxypyrimidine ring and with the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. In contrast to 7a ‐ e , the 6,8‐diaryl‐2,3,4,7‐tetrahydro‐1,3‐dimethyl‐1H‐pyrimido[4,5‐b][1,4]diazepine‐2,4‐diones (9a, c, f) exist in the diimine form.     

Imine-enamine tautomerism of dihydroazolopyrimidines 5. Steric effects and the tautomeric equilibrium for dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines

The reaction of 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole with -dimethylaminopropiophenones or unsaturated ketones gives 5,7-disubstituted 4,7(6,7)-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. An increase in the bulk of the substituent at C₍₇₎ in the bicyclic system leads to relative stabilization of the enamine tautomer of these compounds. An x-ray diffraction structural analysis of 7-tert-butyl-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4,7-dihydro-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine showed that the introduction of a tert-butyl group into the dihydropyrimidine ring leads to significant loss of planarity of this system.For Communication 4, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1357–1363, October, 1993.     

Synthesis and study of new 2-aryl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,1a-dihydroazireno[1,2-a]quinoxaline derivatives

New derivatives of photochromic 2-aryl-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,1a-dihydroazireno[1,2-a]quinoxalines were synthesized by condensation of 4-methyl-and 4,5-dimethyl-1,2-phenylenediamine with 1,3-diaryl-2,3-dibromopropan-1-ones. The reactions of 4-methyl-1,2-phenylenediamine produce mixtures of regioisomers. The chemical properties of the reaction products were studied. The structure of one of the latter was established by X-ray diffraction. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 350–356, February, 2006.
