A Facile Method of Synthesis of a Calix[4]arene Amide and the Crystal Structure of a Self-assembled Calix[4]arene Amide via van Der Waals Interaction

A new facile method of synthesis of calix[4]arene amide via the aminolysis of the calix[4]arene esters was reported. One ethyl ester of the compound (2) was aminolysized byn-butylamine. The crystal structure of compound (1)shows that one ethyl ester of compound (1) enters into thecavity of another compound (1) forming a long chainhost-guest supramolecule. From the 2D NMR data, the compound(1) does not assemble in THF or CHCl₃ solution. The CH- interaction and crystallization energy might be theimportant driving forces for forming the self-assembledcalix[4]arene.     

Crystal and molecular structures of binuclear caesium complexes with 1,3-calix[4]-bis-crown-6 and 1,3-calix[4]-bis-benzo-crown-6

The crystal structures of two binuclear complexes between caesium and 1,3-calix[4]-bis-crowns have been determined. Cs₂ Bis-benzoC6(NO₃)₂. 3CHCl₃ (1) in whichBis-benzoC6 is 1,3-calix[4]-bis-benzo-crown-6, crystallizes in the orthorhombic system: space groupPca2 ₁ a=19.513(10),b=15.382(5),c=23.708(9) Å,V=7116(5) ų,Z=4. Refinement led to a final conventionalR value of 0.065 for 2321 reflections. The structure of (1) is analogous to those already reported withBis-C6, (in whichBis-C6 is, 1,3-calix[4]-bis-crown-6) and NO ₃ ^– as a counter-ion. Cs₂ Bis-C6(NCS)₂ (2) crystallizes in the monoclinic system: space, groupC2 a=36.57(2),b=11.47(1),c=13.65(1) Å, =109.03(5)°.,V=5415(6) ų,Z=4. Refinement led to a final conventionalR value of 0.063 for 2227 reflections. Compound (2) is made of dimers bridged by a disordered NCS^– ion. The crown ether chain conformations are discussed. Supplementary data relating to this article (atomic coordinates, anisotropic displacement parameters, bond distances and angles and observed and calculated structure factors) are deposited with the British Library as Supplementary Publication No. SUP 82199 (52 pages).     

Silver(I) 3-D-supramolecular coordination frameworks constructed by the combination of coordination bonds and supramolecular interactions

Room temperature reactions of the ternary adducts of AgNO₃, bipodal ligand [4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bpy) or trans-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene (tbpe) or 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpe)] and organic ligand [4-aminobenzoic acid (4-aba) or 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-hba) or terephthalate ion (tph)] afford new 3-D supramolecular coordination polymers (SCPs), namely, {[Ag(4,4′-bpy) · H₂O](4-ab) · 2H₂O} (1), {[Ag(tbpe)]0.5(4-hb) · 3H₂O} (2), [Ag₂(L)₂ · (tph)] (L = 4,4′-bpy, tbpe) (3,4) and {[Ag₂(bpe)₂ · (tph)] · 2H₂O} (5). The bipodal ligand coordinates to silver forming a 1-D cationic chain (A), while the organic ligand and solvent form a 1-D anionic chain (B) via hydrogen bonds. The chains construct layers which are connected via hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking forming a 3-D network structure. The presence of the carboxylate, amino and hydroxyl groups in the organic ligands significantly extend the dimensionality via hydrogen bonds. All the SCPs 1–5 exhibit strong luminescence.     

Intramolecular Radical,Knoevenagel, or SN2′ Cyclization of Carbohydrate Derivatives for Access to Enantiomerically Pure 2-Oxospiroalkanes

Abstract

Intramolecular radical cyclization of D-glucose-derived substrate, (2R,3R,4R,5S)-2, 3-(isopropylidenedioxy)-5-[(1R)-l, 2-(isopropylidenedioxy)ethyl]-4-[3-bromo-3, 3-bis(methoxycarbonyl)propyl]-4-vinyltetrahydrofuran, 7 proceeded in a 6-endo-trig mode to give a derivative of 2-oxaspiro[4.5]decane 8 exclusively. Intramolecular Knoevenagel-like reaction of substrate 9 afforded derivatives of 2-oxaspiro-[4.4]nonane 10 as a 3:1 diastereomeric mixture. Intramolecular SN²′ displacement of substrate 22 proceeded highly stereoselectively giving a derivative of 2-oxaspiro-[4.4]decane 23.     

Force field studies of some trifluoromethyl- and trichloromethyl-mercury-II) compounds

Force constants of [Hg(CF₃)₂], [Hg(CCl₃)₂], [Hg(CF₃)X] (X = Cl, Br, or I) and [Hg(CCl₃)X] (X = Cl or Br) have been calculated using a valence force field and wavenumber data from solutions. The potential energy distributions show substantial mixing between the symmetrical stretching and umbrella deformation coordinates of the trihalomethyl groups. The high degree of mixing of HgC and HgX stretching coordinates in [Hg(CF₃)Br] and [Hg(CF₃)I] accounts for the discontinuous frequency and intensity trends in the [Hg(CF₃)X] series.The results are discussed in comparison with methylmercury and other trifluoromethyl systems.

A three-component condensation of 3,4,5-triamino-1,2,4-triazole (1) with aromatic aldehydes 2a–f and dimedone (3) or cyclohexanone (8) afforded partially hydrogenated 9-aryl-[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8-ones. The structure of 2-amino-6,6-dimethyl-3-(4-nitrobenzylidene)amino-9-(4-nitrophenyl)-5,6,7,9-tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1-b]quinazolin-8-one (4e) was confirmed by X-ray diffraction data.

Calix[4]arenes Bridged with Two Different Crown Ether Loops: Influence of Crown Size on Metal Ion Recognition

A series of calix[4]arene-bis-crownethers were synthesized in a fixed 1,3-alternateconformation with good yields by the reaction of amonocyclic calixcrown ether with multi-ethyleneglycoldi-p-toluenesulfonate in the presence of cesiumcarbonate. In the preparation of the monocycliccalixcrown ethers (1 and 2), the use ofpotassium carbonate as a base provided the best yieldregardless of the template concept. In two phaseextraction and competitive transport experiments forligand-metal complexation, calix[4]arene biscrown(5) provided the best selectivity for potassiumion. When a calixbiscrown ether (4) bearingdifferent sized crown ether loops coordinates to K⁺and Cs⁺, respectively, the changes of peak splittingpatterns and chemical shift on ¹H NMR spectra aredependent on the complexed metal ion species.     

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activities of Some 6-Methyl-3-Thioxo-2,3-Dihydro-1,2,4-Triazine Derivatives

Abstract

4-Arylidene-imidazole derivatives (4a,b) were readily prepared by reacting 4-am- ino-6-methyl-3–thioxo-2,3–dihydro[1,2,4]triazin-5(4H)-one (1) with 4-arylidene-2-phenyl- 4H-oxazol-5-one (2). Reaction of 1 with some aromatic aldehydes in presence of triethylphosphite exclusively afforded the corresponding aminophosphonates 5a-c. Reaction of 1 with 3-phenyl-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione (6a) and/or 3-phenyl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydro- 1H-quinazolin-4-one (6b) gave 2-(6-methyl-5-oxo-3-thioxo-2,5-dihydro-3H-[1,2,4]triazin-4-ylimino)-3-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-quinazolin-4-one (7). Moreover, on treating 1 with 2-phenylbenzo[d][1,3]thiazine-4-thione (8), 6-methyl-4-(2-phenyl-4-thioxo-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-3-thioxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-[1,2,4]triazine-5-one (9) was obtained in 65% yield. Reaction of 1 with 4-sulfonylaminoacetic acid derivatives (10a,b) afforded the corresponding sulfonamides (11a,b), respectively. Acid hydrolysis of 11a afforded 7-aminomethyl-3-methyl[1,3,4]thiadiazole[2,3-c][1,2,4]triazin-4-one (12). 4-Amino-6-methyl-3-(morpholine-4-ylsulfanyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazin-5-one (14) was prepared by reacting compound 1 with morpholine in presence of KI/I₂, while 3,3′-bis(4-amino-6-methyl-5-oxo-triazinyl)disulfide (16) was obtained by oxidation of 1 with lead tetraacetate. The antimicrobial activity of the products was evaluated against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as the fungus Candida albicans.

Aggregation of amphiphilic aminomethylated calix[4]resorcinarenes and the nonionic surfactant Triton-X-100 in organic solvents

Aggregation and intermolecular interactions of amphiphilic calix[4]resorcinarene (1), aminomethylated calix[4]resorcinarenes (AMC 2—7) with different structures of the upper rim (including the oxazine structure in 6 and 7) and hydrophobic substituents on the lower (2—5), upper (6), or both rims (7) in the absence and in the presence of the nonionic surfactant Triton-X-100 (8) and p-nitrophenol (9) in chloroform and 1,4-dioxane were studied by permittivity measurements and 2D ROESY ¹H NMR technique. The tendency of amphiphilic derivatives 1—7 toward self-aggregation and mixed aggregation with surfactant 8 primarily depends on the nature of both the solvent and the polar groups on the upper rim of calixarenes. In chloroform, AMC—8 aggregates show interactions of the methyl and methylene groups of the hydrophobic substituents of AMC with the ethyleneoxy fragments of surfactant 8, while in stable intermolecular complexes of 5 and 6 with compound 9, the methylene groups of the long-chain radicals of the AMC strongly interact with the aromatic protons ortho to the hydroxy group of 9. In 1,4-dioxane, calix[4]resorcinarenes 1 and 5 are bound in stable solvates, which prevents them from forming aggregates and mixed micelles.     

Acetylenchemie, 33. Mitt.: Synthese von 2-substituierten Dihydrofuro[2,3-b]chinolinen

Summary The reaction of 3-iodo-4-methoxy-2(1H)-quinolinone (1) and 3-iodo-4,6,8-trimethoxy-2(1H)-quinolinone (2) with 2-methyl-3-butyn-2-ol under modified Heck-conditions gave the 2-substituted derivatives 2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4-methoxyfuro[2,3-b]-quinoline (3) and 2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl-4,6,8-trimethoxyfuro[2,3-b]-quinoline (4). By a subsequent hydrogenation-reaction with a homogeneous catalyst (PtO₂/Rh₂O₃), the furoquinoline-derivatives yielded the dihydrofuro-[2,3-b]quinolines, identified as 2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl-4-methoxy-2,3-dihydrofuro[2,3-b]quinoline (5) (racemic platydesmine) and 2-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4,6,8-trimethoxy-2,3-dihydrofuro-[2,3-b]quinoline (6) (racemic precursor of O⁴-methylptelefolonium salt).

     

Synthesis,spectral, thermal and crystallographic investigations on oxovanadium(IV) and manganese(III) complexes derived from heterocyclic β-diketone and 2-amino ethanol

Novel mononuclear oxovanadium(IV) and manganese(III) complexes [VO(L¹)₂·H₂O] (1); [VO(L²)₂·H₂O] (2); [VO(L³)₂·H₂O] (3); [Mn(L¹)₂]ClO₄·H₂O (4); [Mn(L²)₂] ClO₄·H₂O (5); [Mn(L³)₂]ClO₄·H₂O (6) were prepared by condensation of 1 mol of VOSO₄·5H₂O or Mn(OAc)₃· 2H₂O with 2 mol of ligand HL¹, HL² or HL³ (where HL¹ = 4-[(2-hydroxy-ethylamino)-methylene]-5-methyl-2- phenyl-2,4-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one; HL²=4-[(2-hydroxy-ethylamino)-methylene]-5-methyl-2-p-tolyl-2,4-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one; HL³=4-{4-[(2-hydroxy-ethyl-amino)-methyl]-3-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrazol-1-yl} benzene sulfonic acid). The resulting complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic and decomposition temperature measurements, electron spin resonance, FAB mass, IR and electronic spectral studies. From TGA, DTA and DSC, the thermal behaviour and degradation kinetic were studied. Electronic spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate distorted octahedral stereochemistry of oxovanadium(IV) complexes and regular octahedral stereochemistry of manganese(III) complexes. Hamiltonian and bonding parameters found from ESR spectra indicate the metal ligand bonding is partial covalent. The X-ray single crystal determination of one of the representative ligand was carried out which suggests existence of amine-one tautomeric form in the solid state. The ¹H-NMR spectra support the existence of imine-ol form in solution state. The LC-MS studies sustain the¹H-NMR result. The electronic structure of the same representative ligand was optimized using 6-311G basis set at HF level ab initio studies to predict the coordinating atoms of the ligand.     

Syntheses and structures of M–Na (M=Zn,Mn) coordination polymers in which ligands and Na ions exhibit complex coordination modes

The novel heteronuclear complexes [Na₂Zn(dipic)₂(H₂O)] _n (1) and [Na₂Mn(dipic)₂(H₂O)₂] _n (2) (H₂dipic?=?pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, analysis, IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Complex 1 consists of infinite 2D double layers, which are further attached into a 3D network through π–π stacking. All sodium ions are 3-coordinate. Complex 2 has an intricate 3D structure, in which two sodium ions are differently involved in forming polymeric coordination units, and are 3- and 7-coordinate, respectively. Dipic anions act as multidentate ligands showing novel and unprecedented bridging coordination modes. One ligand coordinates to three metal ions and with five bonds; the other coordinates five metal ions with nine bonds.

Pseudorotaxanes of β-Cyclodextrin with Diamino End-functionalized Oligo-phenyl and -benzyl Compounds in Solution and in the Solid State

-Cyclodextrin forms a 1:1 host:guest inclusion complex ([2]pseudorotaxane) with 4-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyl]-benzenamine (1) in water as determined by 1D and 2D NMRexperiments. In the crystalline state, the structure of the complex has revealed a 2:2 stoichiometry, with two CD molecules forming head-to-head dimers byH-bonds between the secondary O3 hydroxyl groups and enclosing two molecules of the guest. The packing mode of the present complex is encountered for the first time, since it does not belong to any of the four known packing types of the dimeric CD inclusion complexes. On the other hand,N ¹,N ⁴-bis(4-aminophenyl)-1,4-benzenedimethanamine 2), which is longer than 1 by a phenylene diamine unit, has not afforded any crystals, at present, however it threads into CD in aqueous solution forming most probably [2]- and [3]pseudorotaxanes. The solution structures and the equilibria in this system are investigated.

A Facile One-Step Synthesis of New Types of 8-Thiazolyl and 8-Thiadiazinyl Coumarins

N-[4-(7-Methoxy-4-methyl-2-oxo-2H-chromen-8-yl)-thiazol-2-yl]-guanidine ( 2 ) has been prepared by the condensation of 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl)coumarin ( 1 ) with guanylthiourea. 4-Methyl-7-methoxy-8-[2-(N′-(1-phenyl-ethylideneisopropylidene)-hydrazino]-thiazol-4-yl]chromen-2-ones ( 3 , 4 , and 5 ) have been prepared by reaction of 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl) coumarin ( 1 ) and thiosemicarbazide in presence of acetophenone or acetone without any solvent. The formation of these compounds was further confirmed by the condensation of acetophenone/acetone thiosemicarbazones with 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl)coumarin ( 1 ) in anhydrous ethanol in a two-step process. Similarly 8-[2-[N′-(benzylidene)hydrazine]-thiazol-4-yl]-7-methoxy-4-methyl-chromen-2-ones ( 6 , 7 , and 8 ) have been prepared by the condensation of 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl)chromen-2-one with thiosemicarbazide and various aromatic aldehydes in a single step without any solvent. The formation of these compounds was further confirmed by the condensation of appropriately substituted benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazones with 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl)coumarin in anhydrous ethanol. 4-Methyl-7-methoxy-8-(2-bromoacetyl) chromen-2-one (1) upon condensation with 3,5-dimercapto-4-amino-s-triazole in anhydrous ethanol resulted in the formation of 8-(3-mercapto-3H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazin-6-yl)-7-methoxy-4-methyl chromen-2-one (9). This compound ( 9 ) on reaction with various alkyl and phenacyl halides in anhydrous ethanol gave corresponding 4-methyl-7-methoxy-8-[3-(2-oxo-substituted sulphanyl)-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b]thiadiazin-6-yl]chromen-2-ones ( 10 to 18 ). The structures of newly prepared compounds have been confirmed from analytical and spectral data.
