Synthesis, X-Ray Diffraction Data, and 1H and 13C NMR Spectra of N-(N-Arylsulfonylimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinonimines Derived from N-Aroyl(acetyl)-1,4-benzoquinonimines

Oxidation of N-(N-arylsulfonylimidoyl)-4-aminophenols gave the corresponding N-[N-arylsulfonylimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinonimines, derivatives of N-aroyl- and N-acetyl-1,4-benzoquinonimines. The structure of the products was studied by the X-ray diffraction method and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. N-(N-Arylsulfonylimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinonimines were found to undergo fast (on the NMR time scale) Z E isomerization about the CÍN bond in the quinonimine fragment. N-(N-Arylsulfonylacetimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinonimines in solution give rise to dynamic Z E-isomerization with respect to the CÍN bond in the N-arylsulfonylacetimidoyl fragment.

Eleven N-substituted carbazoles (CZ) with terminal vinyl groups were synthesized by five sequences of reaction: N-(p-vinylbenzyl)- and N-β-(vinyloxyethyl)CZ by N-alkylations of potassium CZ with corresponding chlorides; N-(β-acryloyloxyethyl)CZ by the esterification of N-(β-hydroxyethyl)CZ with acryloyl chloride; N-acrylamido-or methacryl-amido-methyl CZ from N-hydroxymethyl CZ and acryl- or methacrylamide; N-(3-acryloyl- or methacryloyl-oxy-2-hydroxypropyl)CZ and N-[3-(p- or m-vinylanilino)-2-hydroxypropyl] CZ from N-(2,3-epoxypropyl)CZ and acrylic or methacrylic acid and p- or m-vinylaniline, respectively; and 2-[β-(N-carbazyl)propionyloxy]ethyl acrylate or methacrylate by the Michael addition of CZ to 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate or methacrylate, followed by esterifications.

Presence of an N-6 acetate group shifts the alkylation site of the ambident nucleophile sodium 1-N-methylisoguanide

Inclusion of an N-6 acetate into the ambident nucleophile, sodium 1-N-methylisoguanide, resulted in a shift in alkylation preference from N-9 to N-3.

N-Acylureas in Peptide Synthesis: An X-Ray Diffraction and IR-Absorption Study

An X-ray diffraction analysts of two N-acyl derivatives of symmetrical dialkylureas, N-[N^α-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L -valyl] -N, N′-diisopropylurea ( 1 ) and N-{Nα(tert-butyloxy)carbonyl -L -valyl}-N-N′-dicyclohexylurea ( 2 ), and one N-acyl derivative of an unsymmetrical N-N′-dialkylurea, N-[N^α-(benzyloxycarbonyl)-L -valyl] -N′-(tert-butyl)-N-ethylurea ( 3 ), has been performed. It was established that it is the least hindered O-acylisourca N-atom that attacks intramolecularly the carbonyl group of the N^α-protected amino acid activated by the unsymmetrical carbodiimide to form the major rearrangement product. The occurrence and nature of intra- and intermolecularly H? bonded forms of the N-acylureas in the crystal state were also assessed. It was also shown that soluble N-acylureas may compete with intermolecular (peptide)N? H…O?C(peptide) H-bonds in CH₂Cl₂.     

Acyl iodides in organic synthesis. Reactions with morpholine,piperidine, and <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-hydrocarbylpiperidines

Acyl iodides RCOI (R = Me, Ph) reacted with morpholine and piperidine to give the corresponding N-acyl derivatives and morpholine or piperidine hydroiodides. Reactions of acyl iodides with N-methyl- and N-ethylpiperidines involved cleavage of the exocyclic R-N bond with formation of N-acylpiperidine and alkyl iodide and were accompanied (to insignificant extent) by cleavage of the endocyclic N-C bond, leading to N-alkyl-N-(5-iodopentyl)acylamides. In the reaction of acetyl iodide with N-phenylpiperidine, the main process was cleavage of just endocyclic N-C bond to produce N-(5-iodopentyl)-N-phenylacetamide and its dehydroiodination product, N-(pent-4-en-1-yl)-N-phenylacetamide. Analogous reaction with benzoyl iodide afforded N-(5-iodopentyl)-N-phenylbenzamide in a poor yield.     

Studies on the Fast Atom Bombardment Mass Spectrometry Fragmentation of Amino Sugars Using Synthetic Derivatives of the Trisaccharide Unit β-D-Glucopyranosyl-(1-3)-O-2-deoxy-2-amino-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1-4)-O-d-glucopyranose

Abstract

N-Phthaloyl, N-acetyl, N-benzyl, N-acetyl-N-methyl, N,N-dimethyl, N-benzoyl, and N,N-dibenzoyl derivatives of the trisaccharide β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-3)-O-(2-deoxy-2-amino-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1-4)-O-β-D-glucopyranose were synthesized and analyzed by FAB MS. The intensity ratios of the peaks resulting from cleavage of the anomeric bond of the glucosamine residue and the respective molecular ion peaks turned out to be high for the N-acyl derivatives and up to two orders of magnitude lower for the N-alkyl compounds. These results show that fragmentation at the anomeric carbon of the amino sugar may be assisted by the carbonyl group and the resulting cation is stabilized by delocalization of the positive charge.

Chlorination of N-(N-Arylsulfonylarylimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinone Imines and Their Reduced Forms

The study of chlorination of N-(N-arylsulfonylarylimidoyl)-1,4-benzoquinone imines and of N-(N-arylsulfonylarylimidoyl)-1,4-aminophenols revealed that the dominant stage in the process was the formation of cyclohexene structures, 4-(N-arylsulfonylarylimidoyl)imino-2,5,6-trichloro-2-cyclohexene-1- ones, resulting from addition of a Cl₂ molecule across the C = C bond of the quinoid ring. These substances suffer a prototropic rearrangements yielding N-(N-arylsulfonylarylimidoyl)-2,3,6-trichloro-4-aminophenols. The latter are the most common reaction products. The products of deeper chlorination were also obtained.
