Microbiological reductions of chromen-4-one derivatives

From the microbiological reductions of 2-acetyl or 2-benzoylchromen-4-one both enantiomers of the corresponding alcohols were obtained with high enantiomeric excess. The absolute configurations were determined directly by an X-ray structural determination. The results obtained showed that for most of the microorganisms tested, an inversion of the configuration of the alcohol occurred with the change of the substituent (methyl to phenyl group) in position 2, but also with the presence of a bromine atom in position 6 of the aromatic ring, positioned quite far from the prochiral centre.     

Design,synthesis and anti-diabetic activity of chromen-2-one derivatives

DPP-IV inhibitors have been immersed as promising pathway to treat Type 2 diabetes. Here we have reported designing of coumarin derivatives as DPP-IV inhibitors. Designed compounds have been studied for their binding with DPP-IV enzyme through molecular docking followed by synthesis. All synthesized compounds have been fully characterized and screened for DPP-IV inhibition activity. Two compounds showed very good inhibition at 10 μM concentration.

Synthesis of 2-sulfanylidene-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives

Three-component condensation of primary amines with carbon disulfide and dialkyl maleates afforded the corresponding alkyl (3-R-4-oxo-2-sulfanylidene-1,3-thiazolidin-5-yl)acetates whose structure was confirmed by independent synthesis and IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis of new ferrocene derivatives with a 4,5-dichloroisothiazole fragment

Conjugates of ferrocene and 4,5-dichloroisothiazole were synthesized, where the ferrocene and isothiazole moieties are linked through various structural fragments. The acylation of ferrocene with 4,5- dichloroisothiazole-3-carbonyl chloride gave (4,5-dichloroisothiazol-3-yl) ferrocenyl ketone; the acylation of aminomethylferrocene furnished the corresponding amide. The esterification of ferrocene-1,1′-dicarboxylic acid with 4,5-dichloroisothiazol-3-yl-methanol resulted in the formation of the corresponding ester. The condensation of 1,1′-diacetylferrocene with 4,5-dichloroisothiazole-3-carbaldehyde afforded ferrocenophane containing 4,5-dichloroisothiazole moieties.     

Synthesis of 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives

A series of new 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives containing arylidene, arylazo, and aminomethylene fragments in position 5 of the rhodanine cycle was synthesized. Dedicated to Academician V. A. Tartakovsky on the occasion of his 75th birthday. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1564–1569, August, 2007.     

Atropisomerism of aromatic carbamates

ortho‐Haloarylcarbamates like 1 – 4 show a high rotational barrier about the N? aryl bond of up to 91.6 kJ mol^?1 as found for 1 , which was determined by 2D exchange NMR spectroscopy (EXSY). It was further demonstrated that the height of the barrier not only depends on the substituents at the axis of chirality, but is also influenced by electronic effects.     

Synthesis of 1,3,4-thiadiazin-2-one and 1,3,4-selenadiazin-2-one derivatives as new cardiotonic drugs

The synthesis of the new heterocycle 1,3,4-selenadiazin-2-one is described, based on the preparation of the analogue heterocycle 1,3,4-thiadiazin-2-one. The related cyclization between an α-haloketone and a thiocarbazate cannot readily be employed within the selenium series. Therefore a new route was developed based upon a diazotization/hydrolysis sequence of the related 2-amino-1,3,4-selenadiazine.     

Cyclic carbamates as reagents for alkylamination of aromatic derivatives under friedel-crafts conditions

Aryl(ethyl-) and propylamines are obtained with good yields by a decarboxylation-alkylation process applied on aluminium trichloride-cyclic carbamate complexes. The coupling of two aromatic units is observed in the case of oxazolidinonetoluene reaction.     

Synthesis of optically active 2-aminotetraline derivatives via enantioselective ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of ene carbamates

The enantioselective hydrogenation of prochiral ene carbamates, directly derived from 2-tetralone, was completed using a catalytic ruthenium system generated from Ru(COD)(methallyl)₂, an optically pure diphosphine and a strong acid containing a non-coordinating counter anion.     

Synthesis of bicyclic carbamates as precursors of Sedum alkaloid derivatives

Synthesis of a N-Boc-protected piperidin-2-yl phosphine oxide starting from piperidine in three steps, followed by olefination using a variety of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes resulted in tert-butyl 2-(2′-alkenylidene)piperidine-1-carboxylates in high yields. A novel type of intramolecular cyclization of these enamides furnished a new family of 3-alkyl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-pyrido[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-1-ones as useful substrates for further elaboration. Subsequent reduction of these unsaturated bicyclic carbamates using NaCNBH₃ or NaBH₄ afforded the corresponding 3-alkylhexahydropyrido[1,2-c][1,3]oxazin-1-ones in a highly stereoselective way. Reductive ring opening of two representatives furnished the corresponding Sedum alkaloid derivatives in good yields.

TMSOTf-mediated reactions of 1-cyclopropyl-2-arylethanones with allenic esters afford a novel method for the synthesis of dihydrofuro[2,3-h]chromen-2-one derivatives in moderate to good yields. This process is a sequential reaction involving a nucleophilic ring-opening reaction of the cyclopropane by H(2)O, two intermolecular aldol-type reactions and one intramolecular aldol-type reaction, a cyclic transesterification, dehydration, and aromatization mediated by Lewis acid.
