Synthesis and Solid‐state Reaction of 1‐[3′‐(Benzotriazol‐2″‐yl)‐4′ ‐hydroxybenzoyl]‐3‐methyl‐5‐pyrazolones

A new kind of UV stabilizers, 1‐(3′‐(benzotriazol‐2″‐yl)‐4′‐hydroxy‐benzoyl)‐3‐methyl‐5‐pyrazolones (1a‐d), was synthesized with the aim to bind them chemically to certain polymers. The reaction of 1d with substituted benzaldehydes 4 in the molten state at 150°C and in the solid state at room temperature produced the condensation products l‐(3′‐(5″‐chlorobenzotriazol‐2″‐yl)‐4′‐hydroxyl‐5′‐chlorobenzoyl)‐3‐methyl‐4‐arylmethylene‐5‐pyrazolones (2) and 4,4′‐arylmethylene‐bis [1‐(3′‐(5″‐chloro‐benzotriazol‐2″‐yl)‐4′‐hydroxy‐5′‐chloro‐benzoyl)‐3‐methyl‐5‐pyrazolone] s (3), respectively, as the major product. On the other hand, the reaction of 1d with 4 at 50°C in chloroform solution proceeded non‐selectively to give a mixture of 2 and 3.

Mass spectral rearrangements of 3-arylsulphonyl-2-arylthiopropenes and N-(4′-arylsulphonyl-2′-butynyl)-N-(4″-arylthio-2″-butynyl)anilines

Under electron impact the title compounds undergo skeletal rearrangement in addition to the anticipated modes of cleavage. The 3-arylsulphonyl-2-arylthiopropenes readily eliminate sulphur dioxide. Other modes of fragmentation include rearrangement to a bisaryl sulphide moiety and sulphone-sulphinate rearrangement. The formation of a bisaryl sulphide ion is analogous to the behaviour of the isomeric trans-1-arylsulphonyl-2-arylthiopropenes. N-(4′-Arylsulphonyl-2′-butynyl)-N-(4″-arylthio-2″-butynyl) anilines do not undergo any of the skeletal rearrangements mentioned above, but display the concerted loss of the arylsulphonyl and arylthio moieties. Similar eliminations have been observed from the analogous bis-sulphides and bis-sulphones.

The 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylide generated in situ from isatin and sarcosine to 2‐arylmethylidene‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrolizin‐1‐ones afforded novel 1′‐methyl‐4′‐(aryl)‐1″H‐dispiro[indole‐3,2′‐pyrrolidine‐3′,2″‐pyrrolizine]‐1″,2(1H)‐diones in good yields. The structures of all the products were characterized thoroughly by NMR, infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrum, and elemental analysis.

Synthesis of Thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D - ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridone The synthesis of 5′-O-monomethoxytritylthymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyridone ((MeOTr)T_dpT_dp∏_d, 5 ) and of thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridone (T_dpT_dp∏_d, 11 ) by condensing (MeOTr) T_dpT_d ( 3 ) and p∏_d(Ac) ( 4 ) in the presence of DCC in abs. pyridine is described. Condensation of (MeOTr) T_dpT_dp ( 6 ) with Π_d(Ac) ( 7 ) did not yield the desired product 5 because compound 6 formed the 3′-pyrophosphate.

Enzymatic degradation of the trinucleoside diphosphate 11 with phosphodiesterase I and II yielded T_d, pT_d and p∏_d, T_dp and Π_d, respectively, in correct ratios.
