The first example of direct heterylation of calixpyrrole

1,2,4-Triazine derivatives react with calixpyrrole to give stable nucleophilic addition products.     

Supramolecular systems formed by calix[4]resorcinarenes and surfactants in chlorophorm

Capacity titration and ¹H NOESY 2D NMR were applied to investigation of intermolecular interactions and aggregation of amphiphilic calix[4]resorcinarenes (CRA 1, 2) modified with 1,2,4-triazine (1) and oxazine (2) functions in chloroform in the presence of cationic (3) and non-ionic (4) surfactants (SAA). Critical concentrations of micelle formation (CMC) indicate that the ability of CRA 1, 2 to form supramolecular aggregates like micelles or hybrid micelles with SAA 3, 4 only weakly depends on the constitution of CRA functional groups. In the case of the hybrid micelles, when CMC are defined by the nature of surfactants 3 or 4, the methyl and methylene groups of the hydrophobic fragments (CRA 1, 2) were found to interact with the hydroxy groups of SAA 3 and ethylene oxide moieties of SAA 4.     

Protolytic Equilibrium of the Isomeric Phenyl-1,2,4-triazines

The protonation constants for the first and second stages (pK_BH+, pK_BH2+) of a series of 1,2,4-triazines with a phenyl substituent at various positions in the ring were determined in aqueous solution by a spectrophotometric method. The values of the basicity constants characterizing the first protonation of the heterocycles investigated was in the range of acidity of the medium of pH 3.5 to H ₀ -2, and the second from H ₀ -7.3 to H ₀ -8.7. The position of the phenyl substituent proved to have a significant effect on the size of pK_BH+. According to the results of ab initio calculations using HF/6-31G** for the heterocycles investigated the 1H⁺ form is thermodynamically most stable among the monocations, with the exception of 6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazine for which the existence of the monocation in the 1H⁺ and 2H⁺ forms are equally probable. In the case of the dications of all the triazines the 2,4-H,H²⁺ tautomer is the most preferred. The aromaticity of the 1,2,4-triazine ring is changed insignificantly on mono- and diprotonation.     

One-step heterylation at the upper rim of calix[4]arene with 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones

A convenient way to modify calix[4]arenes based on the direct C-C coupling reaction of their phenol moiety with 1,2,4-triazines has been advanced, and the ability of modified calixarenes to provide transport of La3+ and Ga3+ cations through organic membranes has been examined.     

SNH-Reactions of triazolo[4,3-b]- and tetrazolo[1,5-b]-1,2,4-triazines with methylene-active carbonyl compounds

Unsubstituted triazolo[4,3-b]- and tetrazolo[1,5-b]-1,2,4-triazines react with carbanions generated from dimedone and barbituric acid to give adducts of a C-nucleophile with the heterocyclic system through the C=N double bond. The adducts can be oxidized under mild conditions into products of nucleophilic hydrogen substitution. Analogous adducts with carbanions produced in the reactions of ethyl cyanoacetate and ethyl malonate with Bu^tOK proved to be unstable; in this case, the title azolotriazines immediately yield products of nucleophilic hydrogen substitution in position 7. Tautomerism of the S _N ^H products obtained is discussed.     

New 1,2,4-triazine-containing podands: synthesis and properties

A method of one-step C-C coupling of 1,5-bis(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)-3-oxapentane (1a) and 1,8-bis(2,6-dimethylphenoxy)-3,6-dioxaoctane (1b) with 3-methylthio- (2) and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazine (3) and 3-aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5-one (6-8) has been described. The reaction of compounds 1a,b with compounds 2 and 3 in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid results in the addition of the dimethylphenoxy group to the unsubstituted C(5) carbon atom of the triazine ring. The reactions of triazinones 6-8 with compounds 1a,b in a mixture of trifluoroacetic acid and organic anhydrides are accompanied by the acylation of the nitrogen atom adjacent to the reaction center and affords bis[(3-R-1-acyl-5-oxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazin-6-yl)-2,6-dimethylphenoxy]-3-oxapentane or -3,6-dioxaoctane. The obtained adducts can smoothly be oxidized under mild conditions to form more stable products of nucleophilic hydrogen substitution in the triazine ring. The extraction and transport of Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ cations through an organic membrane by the compounds synthesized are discussed.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.
