Carbonyl oxides reactions from geraniol-trans-(3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dien-1-ol), 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal ozonolysis: kinetics and mechanisms

A density functional theory (DFT) study of the mechanisms of carbonyl oxide reactions from geraniol-trans, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal ozonolysis is presented. The geometries, energies, and harmonic vibrational frequencies of each stationary point were determined by B3LYP/6-31(d,p) and BH&HLYP/cc-pVDZ methods. According to the calculations, the ozonolysis reactions are initiated by the formation of van der Waals (VDW) complexes to yield primary ozonides, which rapidly open to carbonyl oxide compounds. These carbonyl oxide compounds react to form dioxanes and hydroperoxides. The hydroperoxides react by isomerization to form stable products. Glyoxal and methyl-glyoxal have been identified as the final product from geraniol-trans, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal ozonolysis. Our results are in good agreement with the experimental studies.     

Gas-phase reaction of ozone with trans-2-hexenal,trans-2-hexenyl acetate,ethylvinyl ketone,and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one

The gas-phase reaction of ozone with the unsaturated oxygenates trans-2-hexenal, trans-2-hexenyl acetate, ethylvinyl ketone, and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, which are components of biogenic emissions and/or close structural homologues thereof, has been investigated at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature (286–291 K) and humidity (RH = 55 ± 10%). Reaction rate constants, in units of 10⁻¹⁸ cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹, are 1.28 ± 0.28 for trans-2-hexenal, 21.8 ± 2.8 for trans-2-hexenyl acetate, and 394 ± 40 for 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one. Carbonyl product formation yields, measured with sufficient cyclohexane added to scavenge the hydroxyl radical, are 0.53 ± 0.06 for n-butanal and 0.56 ± 0.04 for glyoxal from trans-2-hexenal, 0.47 ± 0.02 for n-butanal and 0.58 ± 0.14 for 1-oxoethyl acetate from trans-2-hexenyl acetate, 0.55 ± 0.07 for formaldehyde and 0.44 ± 0.03 for 2-oxobutanal from ethylvinyl ketone, and 0.28 ± 0.02 for acetone from 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one. Reaction mechanisms are outlined and the atmospheric persistence of the compounds studied is briefly discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Novel,Simple, and Efficient Synthesis of 3-(2-(5-(Benzylideneamino)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one Derivatives via a One-Pot,Four-Component Condensation Reaction

The synthesis of 3-(2-(5-(benzylideneamino)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives was achieved through a one-pot, four-component reaction involving condensation of 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one, thiosemicarbazide, phenacylcyanaide, and various aryl aldehydes in dry alcohol and few drops of acetic acid under reflux condition. This four-component reaction has some advantages such as ease of handling, good yields, and easy workup. All structures of newly prepared compounds were confirmed by analytical and spectral data.     

Novel heterocycles. Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide and related compounds

The reaction of 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride ( 5 ) with 1-methyl-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 4 ) gave the O-benzoyl compound, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoate ( 6 ), which rearranged to give the C-benzoyl isomer, [2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl] (4-hydroxy-1-mefhyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3-yl)methanone ( 7 ). The O-cinnamoyl compound 13 that resulted from the addition of 2,4-dichlorocinnamoyl chloride ( 11 ) to compound 4 rearranged to give the C-cinnamoyl compound, 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3yl)-2-propen-1-one ( 15 ). On the other hand, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 3-phenyl-2-propenoate ( 19 ) (from cinnamoyl chloride ( 17 ) and compound 4 ) rearranged to give 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide ( 21 ), an example of a hitherto unknown ring system. Additional examples of this novel heterocycle were prepared from 1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 23 ) and 1-methyl-1H-thieno[3,2-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 8 ).

An approach to acyclo-1-deazathymidine c-nucleosides via 3,5-dichloro-6-methyl-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-one.

An approach to the synthesis of acyclo-1-deazathymidine nucleosides is described. Diels-Alder reaction of 3,5-dichloro-6-methyl-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-one with acetylenic compounds 4 and 5 yielded the 3-[(tetrahydropyran-2-yl)oxy]-methyl- and 3-bromomethyl-5-methyl-2,6-dichloropyridine intermediates 7 and 8. The bromomethyl group of compound 8 underwent easy substitution with the appropriate nucleophiles, permitting the introduction of acycLo sugar moieties. The resulting 3-substituted 2,6-dichloro-5-methyl pyridines 9a,b - precursors for some acyclo pyridine-C-nucleosides - were treated with sodium phenylmethoride to afford 2,6-dibenzyloxypyridines 10a,b. Debenzylation using a palladium-strontium carbonate catalyst gave the unstable C-nucleosides 2a,b of the 6-hydroxy-1H-pyridin-2-one type. A stable 6-hydroxy-1H-pyridin-2-one 2c, exempt from benzylic oxygen, was obtained via cycloaddition of THP-protected 6-hydroxy-1-hexyne.     

Studies of the gas phase reactions of linalool, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol with O3 and OH radicals

The reactions of three unsaturated alcohols (linalool, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol, and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol) with ozone and OH radicals have been studied using simulation chambers at T ～ 296 K and P ～ 760 Torr. The rate coefficient values (in cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1)) determined for the three compounds are linalool, k(O3) = (4.1 ± 1.0) × 10(-16) and k(OH) = (1.7 ± 0.3) × 10(-10); 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol, k(O3) = (3.8 ± 1.2) × 10(-16) and k(OH) = (1.0 ± 0.3) × 10(-10); and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol, k(O3) = (5.2 ± 0.6) × 10(-18) and k(OH) = (6.2 ± 1.8) × 10(-11). From the kinetic data it is estimated that, for the reaction of O(3) with linalool, attack at the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group represents around (93 ± 52)% (k(6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol)/k(linalool)) of the overall reaction, with reaction at the R-CH═CH(2) group accounting for about (1.3 ± 0.5)% (k(3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol)/k(linalool)). In a similar manner it has been calculated that for the reaction of OH radicals with linalool, attack of the OH radical at the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group represents around (59 ± 18)% (k(6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol)/k(linalool)) of the total reaction, while addition of OH to the R-CH═CH(2) group is estimated to be around (36 ± 6)% (k(3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol)/k(linalool)). Analysis of the products from the reaction of O(3) with linalool confirmed that addition to the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group is the predominant reaction pathway. The presence of formaldehyde and hydroxyacetone in the reaction products together with compelling evidence for the generation of OH radicals in the system indicates that the hydroperoxide channel is important in the loss of the biradical [(CH(3))(2)COO]* formed in the reaction of O(3) with linalool. Studies on the reactions of O(3) with the unsaturated alcohols showed that the yields of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) are higher in the absence of OH scavengers compared to the yields in their presence. However, even under low-NO(X) concentrations, the reactions of OH radicals with 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol will make only a minor contribution to SOA formation under atmospheric conditions. Relatively high yields of SOAs were observed in the reactions of OH with linalool, although the initial concentrations of reactants were quite high. The importance of linalool in the formation of SOAs in the atmosphere requires further investigation. The impact following releases of these unsaturated alcohols into the atmosphere are discussed.     

Reactivity of 4-azido- and 4-amino-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one. Preparation of 1-(6-methyl-2-oxopyran-4-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles and 5-oxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridines

1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of stable 4-azido-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one 1 with electron-rich alkenes and alkynes lead to 4,5-substituted 1-(6-methyl-2-oxopyran-4-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles. Iminophosphoranes derived from 1 have also been synthesized. 5-Oxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridines are prepared by reaction of 4-amino-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one 2 with β-dicarbonyl compounds.

Their structures were established by spectral methods.

Kinetics of the C-C bond beta scission reactions in alkyl radicals

High pressure limits of thermal rate constants of four C-C bond beta scission reactions of propyl, 1-butyl, 2-butyl and isobutyl radicals were calculated using the canonical variational transition state theory (CVT) with a multi-dimensional small-curvature tunneling (SCT) correction over the temperature range of 300-3000 K. The CCSD(T)/cc-pVDZ//BH&HLYP/cc-pVDZ method was used to provide necessary potential energy surface information. Rate constants for these reactions were used to extrapolate rate constants for reactions in larger alkyls where experimental data are available using the Reaction Class Transition State Theory (RC-TST). Excellent agreement with experimental data confirms the validity of the RC-TST methodology and the accuracy of the calculated kinetic data in this study.     

10-(4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)-3-methyl-1H,10H-pyrano[4,3-b] chromen-1-ones from a pseudo-multicomponent reaction and evaluation of their antioxidant activity

A series of novel 10-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)-3-methyl-1H,10H-pyrano[4,3-b]chromen-1-ones were synthesized by a pseudo-three-component reaction of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-2-one (TAL) with 2-hydroxyarylaldehydes using different acids as catalysts and solvents. The approach relies on a regioselective cascade reaction involving two molar equiv of the TAL iteratively acting as active methylene in a Knoevenagel condensation and in a Michael addition. The antioxidant activity of the synthesized compounds were determined using the DPPH scavenging assay, being the results dependent on the nature and number of chromone substituents. The compound bearing an ortho-dihydroxy (catechol) moiety showed excellent activity at lower concentrations, while derivatives bearing alkoxy groups as substituents present pro-oxidant activity.
