Regioselective Heterocyclization of 3-(Cyclohex-2′-enyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one

Summary.  Regioselective heterocyclization of 3-(cyclohex-2′-enyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl pyran-2-one with various reagents afforded different heterocycles. With N-iodosuccinimide in acetonitrile at 0–5°C it gave 6-methyl-9′-iodo-2′-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonano[3,2-c]pyran-2-one, with C₅H₅NHBr₃ or C₆H₁₂N₄HBr₃ in CHCl₃ at 0–5°C it furnished 6-methyl-9′-bromo-2′-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonano[3,2-c]pyran-2-one. Cold concentrated H₂SO₄ lead to 6-methyl-2′-oxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonano[3,2-c]pyran-2-one, whereas PdCl₂(PhCN)₂ in C₆H₆ at 80°C afforded 9-methyl benzofuro[3,2-c]pyran-2-one. Corresponding author.

Synthesis, molecular and crystal structure, and features of the electronic structure of bis(O’i)-chelated bis(2,2-dimethylbenzo-[2H]-4-oxo-1,3-oxazino-3-methyl)difluorosilane

A method has been developed for the synthesis of a bis(O→Si)-chelated bis(2,2-dimethylbenzo[2H]-4-oxo-1,3-oxazino-3-methyl)difluorosilane from 2,2-dimethyl-3-trimethylsilylbenzo[2H]-1,3-oxazin-4-one and bis(chloromethyl)dichlorosilane via the intermediate formation of the corresponding unstable bis-chelated dichloride, subsequent hydrolysis with NaHCO₃ and, without separation, treatment of the hydrolysis product with boron trifluoride etherate. Analysis of the electron density distribution showed the presence of dative bonding in both O→Si-F fragments.

The interaction of 3-allylsulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole with iodine led to 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[2',3':3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-11-ium pentaiodide with an angular structure, on the basis of which 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo-, 1-methylidene-1,2-di-hydro[1,3]thiazolo, and 1-methyl[1,3]thiazolo derivatives were obtained. The intramolecular cyclization of 3-propargyl(allyl)sulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indoles under the influence of concentrated sulfuric acid led to linear annelated products:3-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b]indole or its 2,3-dihydro derivative.     

Synthesis of azepino[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]benzimidazoles and imidazo[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]azepines

Fusion of 4-bromo-1,3-diphenyl-2-buten-1-ones (γ-bromodypnones) with 1,2-dimethyl-1H-benzimidazole and further treatment of the reaction product with a base (morpholine) gives 7,9-diaryl-5-methyl5,10-dihydroazepino[1,2-a]benzimidazol-11-ium bromides. The reaction of γ-bromodypnone with 1-alkyl-2-methyl-1H-imidazoles in benzene at 25 °C gives quaternary azolium salts. Upon heating their solutions in alcohol in the presence of K₂CO₃ the latter cyclize to 1-R-6,8-diaryl-1,5-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]azepin-4-ium bromides or 1-R-6,8-diaryl-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]azepines depending on the nature of the substituent in the benzene rings and the substituent at the N(1) atom of the imidazole.

Synthesis and reactions of 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyridine

(E)-3-{5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-yl}propenoic acid (I) was prepared from 5-[3-(tri-fluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde under the Doebner’s conditions. The obtained acid was converted to the corresponding azide II, which was cyclized by heating in diphenyl ether to 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one (III). This compound was aromatized with phosphorus oxychloride to chloroderivative IV which was reduced with H₂NNH₂-Pd/C to the title compound V. 2-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-oxide (VI) was synthesized by reaction of V with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid in dichloromethane. On treatment of VI with benzoyl chloride and potassium cyanide (Reissert-Henze reaction), corresponding 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine-1-carbonitrile (VII) resulted. 5-Amino-2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridin-5-ium-4-methylbenzene sulfonate (VIII) was prepared by direct N-amination of the title compound V with 1-[(aminooxy)sulfonyl]-4-methylbenzene in dichloromethane. Then, VIII was transformed to a non-isolated zwitterionic N-imid IX which afforded the corresponding furo[3,2-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine carboxylic acid esters X, XI by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with dimethyl but-2-ynedionate (DBD) or ethyl propiolate. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by their IR and NMR spectra.

Stable azomethine imines having a 3,4-dihydroisoquinoline fragment and their cycloaddition to <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-arylmaleimides

Aroylation of 5,6,8,8a,13,14,16,16a-octahydro[1,2,4,5]tetrazino[6,1-a:3,4-a′]diisoquinoline or 1,3,4,8b-tetrahydro[1,2]diazireno[3,1-a]isoquinoline, as well as reactions of 2-(2-bromoethyl)benzaldehyde with aroylhydrazines followed by treatment with triethylamine, led to the formation of stable azomethine imines, aroyl(3,4-dihydroisoquinolinium-2-yl)azanides. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of the latter to N-mesitylmaleimide was stereoselective: the ratio of the trans- and cis-adducts was ∼(3–7): 1, the former prevailing. The reactions with N-arylmaleimides having no ortho-substituents in the aryl group gave the corresponding cis-adducts as the major products [trans/cis ratio ∼1: (2.5–10)].

Hydrolysis of 7,7-Substituted Derivatives of 3-tert-Butyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-thiazolo-[3,2-a][1,3,5]triazin-6(7H)-one

Alkaline hydrolysis of 3-tert-butyl-7,7-bis(hydroxymethyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-thiazolo[3,2-a][1,3,5]-triazin-6(7H)-one can occur in three directions: with cleavage of the tetrahydrotriazine ring, with cleavage of the thiazolidine ring, and also with opening of both rings. Depending on the process conditions, either the hydrolysis product corresponding to the first direction or the hydrolytic decomposition products corresponding to the second and third directions can be obtained in preparative quantities.

Regioselective Synthesis and Inclusion Properties of distal-Bis[(2-pyridylmethyl) oxy]tetrathiacalix[4]arenes

Regioselective synthesis of bis[(2-pyridylmethyl)oxy]tetrathiacalix[4]arenes was accomplished by a protection–deprotection method using benzyl groups as a protecting group. The conformational studies of distal-bis[(2-pyridylmethyl)oxy]thiacalix[4]arenes in solution and solid state are described. The two-phase solvent extraction data indicated that bis[(2-pyridylmethyl)oxy]tetrathiacalix[4]arenes show strong Ag⁺ (E%, 97%) affinity. In contrast, no significant E% is observed for K⁺. A good Job plots proves 1:1 coordination of 1,3-alternate -3 with Ag⁺ cation. ¹H-NMR Titration of 1,3-alternate- 3 with AgSO₃CF₃ also clearly demonstrates that a 1:1 complex is formed with retention of the original symmetry. The conformational changes of pyridine moiety from the original outward orientation of the ring nitrogen to the inside orientation toward the thiacalixarene cavity were observed in the process of Ag⁺ complexation. The down-field shifts of the benzene protons of the benzyl group were also observed and attributed to the conformational deviation from the original face to face overlapping.

Oxidation of electron deficient olefins using a copper(II) complex based on a bis-benzimidazole diamide ligand

New bis-benzimidazole based diamide ligands N, N′-bis(2-methyl benzimidazolyl)-benzene-1,3-dicarboxamide [GBBA] and N-Octyl-N, N′-bis(2-methyl benzimidazolyl)-benzene- 1,3-dicarboxamide [O-GBBA] have been synthesized and utilized to prepare Cu(II) complexes of general composition [Cu(GBBA)X ₂] · nH₂O and [Cu(O-GBBA)X₂] · n H₂O, where X is an exogenous anionic ligand (X = Cl⁻, NO₃⁻, SCN⁻). The oxidation of electron deficient olefins has been investigated using [Cu(O-GBBA)X₂] · nH₂O as catalyst and TBHP as an alternate source of oxygen. The respective ketonic products have been isolated and characterized by ¹H-NMR. The complex [Cu(GBBA)(NO₃)₂] · 4H₂O has been characterized structurally. It crystallizes in a monoclinic space group C2/c. Low temperature EPR spectra have been obtained for the complexes that shows g_II > g_I > 2.0024, indicating a tetragonal geometry in the solution state. The complexes display a quasi reversible redox wave due to the Cu(II)/Cu(I) reduction process. The E_1/2 values shift anodically as NO₃⁻ < SCN⁻ < Cl⁻.
