1,3‐Dipolar cycloaddition reaction of 4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐imidazole 3‐oxides with alkynes

4,5‐Dihydro‐1H‐imidazole 3‐oxides bearing different substituents at positions 1 and 2 of the heterocycle were shown to react with a wide range of acceptor‐substituted alkynes forming corrsponding cycloadducts ‐ derivatives of 1,2,3,7a‐tetrahydroimidazo[1,2‐b]isoxazole. High regioselectivity of this process stipulated by conjugation of the nitrogen atom with the nitrone group was revealed.

A few of them possess significant activity.     

Regiospecific synthesis of 5‐(1H‐indol‐2‐yl)‐1‐ and 2‐methyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐2H‐indazole isomers

A regiospecific approach to each N‐methyl‐5‐(1H‐indol‐2‐yl)‐6,7‐dihydro‐2H‐indazole isomer is reported.

(E)‐2‐Methyl‐3‐(2‐methyl‐2‐nitro­vinyl)‐1H‐indole and (E)‐3‐(2‐methyl‐2‐nitro­vinyl)‐2‐phenyl‐1H‐indole

In the title compounds, C₁₂H₁₂N₂O₂, (I), and C₁₇H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), respectively, the indole rings are planar and the vinyl groups lie out of the indole planes, making dihedral angles of 33.48 (5) and 41.31 (8)°, respectively. In (II), the dihedral angle between the phenyl and indole ring planes is 32.06 (6)°. In both mol­ecules, the double bond connecting the methyl­nitro­vinyl group and the indole nucleus adopts an E configuration. Notwithstanding the differences in space group [C2/c for (I) and P2₁2₁2₁ for (II)], the mode of packing of compounds (I) and (II) is determined by similar inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen‐bonding inter­actions, forming chains that run parallel to [101] in (I) and [001] in (II).     

2,4,4‐Tri­methyl‐2‐phenyl‐3‐pentanone oxime

The title compound, C₁₄H₂₁NO, has two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit. Each mol­ecule forms hydrogen‐bonded dimers about inversion centers via O—H?N hydrogen bonds between oxime groups. The N—O distances in the oxime groups are 1.4160 (15) and 1.4131 (14) Å.

The syntheses, X‐ray structural investigations and calculations of the conformational preferences of the carbonyl substituent with respect to the pyran ring have been carried out for the two title compounds, viz. C₁₅H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), and C₂₀H₁₆N₂O₂·C₂H₃N, (III), respectively. In both mol­ecules, the heterocyclic ring adopts a flattened boat conformation. In (II), the carbonyl group and a double bond of the heterocyclic ring are syn, but in (III) they are anti. The carbonyl group forms a short contact with a methyl group H atom in (II). The dihedral angles between the pseudo‐axial phenyl substituent and the flat part of the pyran ring are 92.7 (1) and 93.2 (1)° in (II) and (III), respectively. In the crystal structure of (II), inter­molecular N—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol­ecules into a sheet along the (103) plane, while in (III), they link the mol­ecules into ribbons along the a axis.

1‐Carboxymethyl‐3‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐3‐ium chloride 2‐(3‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐3‐ium‐1‐yl)acetate monohydrate: a crystal stabilized by imidazolium zwitterions

The title compound, C₆H₉N₂O₂⁺·Cl⁻·C₆H₈N₂O₂·H₂O, contains one 2‐(3‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐3‐ium‐1‐yl)acetate inner salt molecule, one 1‐carboxymethyl‐3‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐3‐ium cation, one chloride ion and one water molecule. In the extended structure, chloride anions and water molecules are linked via O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds, forming an infinite one‐dimensional chain. The chloride anions are also linked by two weak C—H...Cl interactions to neighbouring methylene groups and imidazole rings. Two imidazolium moieties form a homoconjugated cation through a strong and asymmetric O—H...O hydrogen bond of 2.472 (2) Å. The IR spectrum shows a continuous D‐type absorption in the region below 1300 cm⁻¹ and is different to that of 1‐carboxymethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium chloride [Xuan, Wang & Xue (2012). Spectrochim. Acta Part A, 96 , 436–443].
