Selenides and diselenides containing oxadiazoles: a new class of functionalised materials

A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of a new class of organoselenium liquid crystal compounds was developed. The coupling of aryl bromides with elemental selenium was catalysed using copper oxide nanopowder in the presence of potassium hydroxide employing dimethyl sulfoxide as the solvent. This is the first report of the synthesis and characterisation of liquid crystal-based diselenides. Their mesophases were characterised by polarising optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Compounds 1, 2 and 4b exhibited the smectic A phase. In addition, these compounds showed weak blue fluorescence in solution (λ_{max. em.} 350–405 nm) and a Stokes shift of around 90 nm.     

Direct synthesis of 3,5-diaryl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles using 1-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)pyridin-1-iums with benzamidines

An efficient domino protocol for the synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives from readily available 1-(2-oxo-2-arylethyl)pyridin-1-iums and amidine hydrochlorides was developed. In this practical approach, N-acyl amidine precursors were formed firstly via a simple nucleophilic substitution, without the purification of N-acylamidine intermediates, and the following intramolecularly dehydrative cyclization gave 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives in the presence of I₂/K₂CO₃/DMSO, which exhibited excellent functional group tolerance and proceeded under simple experimental conditions.

Compound 6, 5-(2,6-dichloropyrimidin-4-yl)-3-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole, crystallizes in monoclinic space group Pn with a = 8.4275(13), b = 5.4088(8), c = 13.493(2), β = 99.768(3)o, V = 4658.6(6)3 and Z = 8. Preliminary bioassay indicated that the two title compounds had good herbicidal activities.     

Synthesis of 2,5-disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles containing benzothiazolylthiol grouping

A series of 2,5-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles containing 2-benzothiazolylthiomethyl grouping has been synthesized by condensing derivatives of (2-benzothiazolylthio)acetic acid with imino ester hydrochlorides and hydrazides of carboxylic acids, by the cyclodehydration of N-acyl-N-(2-benzothiazolylthioacetyl)hydrazines under the action of POCl, and also by the reaction of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole with 2-chloromethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of sodium methylate.I.

Cyclization of protected N-acylhydroxyguanidine to 3-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazole

The acid mediated cyclization of a protected N-acylhydroxyguanidine into the corresponding 3-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazole and confirmation of its structure by single crystal X-ray crystallography is reported herein. The yield of the cyclization is comparable to literature reports utilizing alternative procedures. Importantly, these new conditions provide complementary chemoselectivity to current synthetic procedures which may be useful for the synthesis of 3-amino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles in general.

Fluorescent macrocyclic chemosensor for Zn(II) detection at alkaline pH values

ABSTRACT

The new macrocyclic ligand L (28,29-dimethoxy-27-oxa-8,11,14,17,25,26-hexaazatetracyclo[22.2.1.1(2,6).1(19,23)]nonacosa-2,4,6(28),19,21,23(29),24,26(1)-octaene) has been synthesised. It contains a tetramine chain and the 2,5-bis(2-methoxy-3-metyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PPD-OMe) chromophore, acting as coordinating and sensing units, respectively.

The fluorescent emission of L depends on the pH being highly fluorescent at pH = 2 and not emitting from pH >10. The studies highlighted that L is a PET mediated emitting chemosensor, being the PET effect regulated by the degree of the tetraamine protonation.

L coordinates metal ions (Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II)) in water giving rise to an OFF-ON fluorescent response for the presence of Zn(II) ion thus signalling its presence in the medium. This response is particularly notable at pH = 9 allowing to extend the Zn(II) sensing also in the alkaline pH field.
