Synthesis of pyridine derivatives by the three-component condensation of a β-dicarbonyl compound, β-enaminocarbonyl compound, and ethyl orthoformate

The major products of the three-component condensation of a -dicarbonyl compound, -enaminocarbonyl compound, and ethyl orthoformate are pyridine derivatives. The reaction of 1,3-cyclohexanedione or dimedone, the enamino ketones obtained from these diones, and ethyl orthoformate gives octahydroacridinediones, while the reaction of dimedone, ethyl -aminocrotonate, and ethyl orthoformate gives a tetrahydroquinoline derivative. The structures of the minor products were established in some cases. The reduction of 3,3,6,6-tetramethyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-1,8-acridinedione by LiAlH₄ proceeds with retention of the pyridine ring and leads to the corresponding octahydroacridinediol.Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, 220141 Minsk, Belarus Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 774–781, June, 1999.     

Synthesis and hydrazinolysis of β-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)pyridines

Cyclization of the hydrazide of 5-ethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethylpyridine-3-carboxylic acid by acylation with aromatic or aliphatic acid chlorides with subsequent boiling in POCl₃ or heating in orthoformic acid gave the corresponding ethyl 2,6-dimethyl-5-(5-R-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)pyridine-3-carboxylate. The cyclization of the reaction products with hydrazine hydrate has been studied. Cyclization of the dihydrazide of 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid under analogous conditions gave only 3,5-bis-(5-R-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-2,6-dimethylpyridines, containing R = 2-FC₆H₄, H.

Synthesis of chiral β2-amino acids by asymmetric hydrogenation

The synthesis of chiral β²-amino acids by homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation is discussed. Prochiral β-aryl- or β-hetaryl-α-N-benzyl/N-acetyl/N-Boc substituted α-aminomethylacrylates used as substrates were prepared by a Baylis–Hillman reaction, followed by acylation and amination. For the asymmetric hydrogenation, a large variety of chiral, preferentially rhodium catalysts bearing commercially available phosphorus ligands were tested. Conversions and enantioselectivities were dependent on the reaction conditions and varied strongly between the substrates used. A chiral N-α-phenylethyl group supports the stereoface discriminating ability of the chiral catalysts and thus a matching pair effect could be realized. In strong contrast, a chiral ester group has almost no effect in this respect. In some cases the use of the corresponding substrate acid was better in comparison to the use of its ester. After optimization of the hydrogenation conditions (chiral catalyst, H₂-pressure, temperature, solvent), full conversions and products with up to 99% ee were achieved.

The reaction of the reduced Schiff base HL(N-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-L-serine) with Zn(CH_3COO)_2·2H_2O in aqueous solution afforded [Zn(L)_2]·3H_2O(I). The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, powder X-ray diffraction, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex I crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group P212121, with a=9.197(2), b=10.445(2), c=24.149(5) ?, V=2319.8(8) ?~3, Z=4, C_(20)H_(30)N_2O11 Zn, M_r=539.83, Dc=1.546 g·cm~3, μ=1.122 mm~(-1), F(000)=1128, GOOF=0.971, the final R=0.0206 and w R=0.0506 for 4346 observed reflections(I 2σ(I)). In complex I, each Zn(II) ion coordinates with three carboxyl oxygen atoms and two amine nitrogen atoms from three L-anions, forming a distorted five-coordinated trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Complex I exhibits a 1D wavy chain structure that is extended by hydrogen-bonding interactions to form a supramolecular network. The bioactivity of the complex as a potential PTPs inhibitor in vitro was investigated, displaying potent inhibition against PTP1B(IC_(50), 0.24 μM) and TCPTP(IC_(50), 0.53 μM) with a moderate selectivity.     

Synthesis, structure, and antimicrobial activity of copper(II) chelates containing imidazole and condensation products of α-amino acids with salicylaldehyde and its derivatives

Salicylaldehyde, 5-bromo- and 5-nitrosalicylaldehydes, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1-carbaldehyde, and 2,3-, 2,4-, and 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehydes reacted with glycine, alanine, and phenylalanine in ethanol in the presence of imidazole (Im) and copper(II) acetate hydrate to give copper(II) chelates with the composition Cu(Im)(L) · nH₂O (H₂L is the condensation product of the above aldehydes with α-amino acids; n = 0–2). The structure of the complex Cu(Im)(L¹) [H₂L¹ = 2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)acetic acid] was determined by X-ray analysis. The crystalline structure of [2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)acetato](imidazole)copper is formed by polymeric chains of the Cu(Im)(L¹) molecules linked through bridging oxygen atoms in the carboxy groups of the Schiff base ligand. The coordination unit has a distorted tetragonal pyramid configuration, where the pyramid base is composed of the phenol and carboxy oxygen atoms, CH=N nitrogen atom in the ligand H₂L¹ and imidazole nitrogen atom. The oxygen atom in the carboxy group in the neighboring molecule occupies the apical position of the coordination pyramid. The other coordination compounds also have polynuclear structure with the Schiff base H₂L acting as doubly deprotonated tridentate O,N,O-ligand and bridging carboxy groups. Thermal decomposition of the complexes includes their dehydration (70–95°C), while complete thermal decomposition occurs at 360–530°C. The synthesized complexes showed selective antimicrobial activity in the concentration range from 75 to 300 μg/ml against a number of standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

The structure of the products has been confirmed by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy data. Antimicrobial activity of the obtained compounds has been studied.

Synthesis and characterization of α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrin-nicotinamide

Abstract

α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrin-nicotinamide (α-, β- and γ-CDNA) were synthesized as NADH coenzyme models, and the binding abilities were investigated. CDNA binds a negatively charged guest stronger than unmodified cyclodextrin because of the electrostatic interaction between the nicotinamide residue and the guest molecule. Different binding abilities were measured and were dependent on cavity size.

One-pot synthesis of highly diversified tetrahydropyridines by tandem condensation of aldehydes,amines, and β-ketoesters

Silica-supported boron trifluoride (BF₃·SiO₂) was used as an efficient and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of highly diversified tetrahydropyridines by one-pot multicomponent reactions of amines and aldehydes with β-ketoester. This method proceeds through the intermolecular Mannich reaction followed by intramolecular Mannich reaction. The observed hydrogen bonding interaction was studied in detail with single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and Etter’s graph. Finally, this method has the advantage of easy work-up, convenient, relatively short reaction times and the products were isolated with high yields.     

Synthesis of a dimer of β-(1,4)-L-arabinosyl-(2S,4R)-4-hydroxyproline inspired by Art v 1, the major allergen of mugwort

Nα-tert-Butoxycarbonyl-L-trans-4-hydroxyproline allyl ester (Boc-Hyp-OAll) was glycosylated with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-L-arabinose p-cresylthioglycoside in 60% yield with 4:1 β:α stereoselectivity. Deprotection of N- and C-terminii independently gave a prolyl amine and prolyl carboxylate respectively that were coupled under standard conditions with 1-[bis-(dimethylamino)methylene]-1H-1,2,3-triazolo-[4,5,b]-pyridininium hexafluorophosphate 3-oxide (N-HATU) to give the dimer 1 in 46% yield. These results represent the first steps toward the production of homogeneous oligomers to determine the minimal epitope of the Art v 1 allergen.     

Enantioselective synthesis of β-amino acids. Part 10: Preparation of novel α,α- and β,β-disubstituted β-amino acids from (S)-asparagine

Perhydropyrimidinone (S)-1 is alkylated with very high diastereoselectivity to give trans products (2S,5R)-3, (2S,5R)–4 and (2S,5R)-5. Dialkylation of (S)-1 also proceeds with complete stereoselectivity to afford adducts (2S,5R)-6, (2S,5S)-6, (2S,5R)-7 and (2S,5S)-7. Hydrolysis (6N HCl, 100°C) of monoalkylated derivative (2S,5R)-3 gives enantiopure α-substituted β-amino acid (R)-8. Hydrolysis of dialkylated adducts 6 and 7 affords enantiopure α,α-disubstituted β-amino acids (R)- or (S)-9 and (R)- or (S)-10. Related iminoester (2S,6S)-2 is alkylated with complete diastereoselectivity to give products (2S,6S)-11–13 whose hydrolysis under relatively mild conditions (2N CF₃CO₂H, CH₃OH, 100°C) affords enantiopure N-benzoylated β,β-disubstituted β-amino acid esters (S)-14–16, with intact double bonds in the olefinic substituents.
