Synthesis of Nitrogen Heterocycles from Methyl α‐ and β‐d‐Glucopyranosides

Eight nitrogen heterocycles, mono and disubstituted tetrazoles and oxadiazoles, were synthesized from methyl d‐glucopyranoside anomers. The monosubstituted tetrazoles resulted from the reaction of 6‐cyanoglucopyranoside derivatives with sodium azide. By alkylation of the monosubstituted tetrazoles, the 1,5 and 2,5 disubstituted tetrazoles were obtained. The monosubstituted tetrazoles were reacted with acetic anhydride to give the oxadiazoles.     

An unexpected formation of pyrazolopyrimidines during the attempted to obtain 5-substituted tetrazoles from carbonitriles

In this Letter, we described the synthesis of new 5-(5-amino-1-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-yl)-1H-tetrazoles 2a–c from 5-amino-1-aryl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles 1a–c as well as the unexpected 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives 6a–c from 5-amino-1-aryl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitriles 4a–c, instead of 5-(5-amino-1-aryl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-yl)-1H-tetrazoles 5a–c as desired. In an attempt to obtain these tetrazole derivatives containing the methyl group at C3-position in the pyrazole ring, the amino group in 5-amino-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile 4c was protected by the reaction with sodium hydride and di-tert-butyl-dicarbonate (Boc). The tetrazole derivative 5c was synthesized from the protected compound 7c using analogue methodology to obtain 2a–c and 6a–c.

A new and versatile Ugi/SNAr synthesis of fused 4,5-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalines

A combinatorial synthetic route yielding fused tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalines is described. The use of 2-fluorophenylisocyanide in the Ugi-tetrazole reaction (tetrazole-U-4CR) followed by a nucleophilic aromatic substitution (S_NAr) affords the tricylic tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline moiety in good yields and with high diversity.     

Reactions of 1,4-bis(tetrazole)benzenes: formation of long chain alkyl halides

The reactions of 1,4-bis[2-(tributylstannyl)tetrazol-5-yl]benzene with α,ω-dibromoalkanes were carried out in order to synthesise pendant alkyl halide derivatives of the parent bis-tetrazole. This led to the formation of several alkyl halide derivatives, substituted variously at N1 or N2 on the tetrazole ring. The crystal structures of 1,4-bis[(2-(4-bromobutyl)tetrazol-5-yl)]benzene (2-N,2-N′), 1,4-bis[(2-(4-bromobutyl)tetrazol-5-yl)]benzene (1-N,2-N′) and 1,4-bis[(2-(8-bromooctyl)tetrazol-5-yl)]benzene (2-N,2-N′) are reported. Further discussion involves the structure of 1,4-bis[2-(6-bromohexyl)-2H-tetrazol-5-yl]benzene (2-N,2-N′) previously reported.     

Stereospecific synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles from ketoximes via a Beckmann rearrangement facilitated by diphenyl phosphorazidate

A novel method for the stereospecific synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles from ketoximes via the Beckmann rearrangement was developed using diphenyl phosphorazidate (DPPA) as both the oxime activator and azide source. Various ketoximes were transformed into the corresponding 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles with exclusive trans-group migration and no E-Z isomerization of the ketoxime. This method enables the preparation of 1,5-disubstituted tetrazoles without using toxic or explosive azidation reagents.     

Diastereoselective synthesis of multisubstituted isoindolines via Sequential Ugi and aza-Michael addition reaction

A new efficient and diastereoselective synthesis of multisubstituted isoindolines with two stereogenic centers via sequential Ugi/aza-Michael addition reaction was developed. Ugi-3CR of aldehydes 1, amines 2 and isocyanates 3 in the presence of catalytic amount of H₃PO₄ produced intermediates 4, which were then transformed to isoindolines 5 with good 1,3-trans diastereoselectivity in the presence of K₂CO₃ by intramolecular aza-Michael addition. Sequential Ugi-azide and aza-Michael addition reaction of aldehydes 1, amines 2 and trimethylsilyl azide 6 also produced 4-tetrazolyl substituted isoindolines 8 with good 1,3-trans diastereoselectivity in the presence of potassium carbonate.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,thermal decomposition,and explosive properties of [Bi(tza)3] n (tza = tetrazole acetic acid)

A coordination compound based on tetrazole acetic acid (Htza) and bismuth(III), [Bi(tza)₃] _n , was synthesized and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, FT-IR, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The crystallographic data show that the crystal belongs to monoclinic, P2₁/n space group, a?=?0.91968(19)?nm, b?=?0.94869(19)?nm, c?=?1.7824(4)?nm, β?=?101.488(3)°, and Z?=?4. The central bismuth(III) is nine-coordinate by three nitrogens from three tetrazole rings and six oxygens of the carboxylate of another three tza^? ions, with each tza^? tridentate, chelating, bridging coordination. The coordination bonds and the intramolecular hydrogen bonds make the complex pack into a layered structure in polymer form. The thermal decomposition mechanism of the title complex was investigated by DSC and TG-DTG techniques. Under nitrogen at a heating rate of 10°C?min^?1, thermal decomposition of the complex contains two intense exothermic processes between 217.4°C and 530.3°C in the DSC curve; the final decomposed residue at 570°C was Bi₂O₃. Sensitivity tests showed that [Bi(tza)₃] _n was sensitive to impact and flame stimulus.
