New synthesis of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiazoles from 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole

Treatment of 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole with potassium tert-butoxide generated potassium 2-(1-adamantyl)ethynethiolate which reacted with aromatic carboxylic acid chlorides to give unstable S-[2-(1-adamantyl)ethynyl] arenecarbothioates whose acid hydrolysis afforded S-[2-(1-adamantyl)-2-oxoethyl] arenecarbothioates. The latter reacted with ammonium acetate in acetic acid yielding 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiadiazoles. Reactions of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)-1,3-thiadiazole with cyclic secondary amines gave the corresponding products of nucleophilic replacement of the chlorine atom in the aromatic ring.

Synthesis of functionalized 5-(3-R-1-adamantyl)uracils and related compounds

Efficient synthetic approaches to functionalized 5-(3-R-1-adamantyl)uracils and related compounds (R=OH, COOH, NH₂, etc.) are described. The selective hydroxylation of the adamantane tertiary C-H bonds in 5-(1-adamantyl)uracils with H₂SO₄ in trifluoroacetic anhydride is used as the key step. Subsequent electrophilic reactions of 5-(3-hydroxy-1-adamantyl)uracils with N- and C-nucleophiles in CF₃COOH, H₂SO₄ or H₂SO₄/AcOH media yielded derivatives with amide, amino, aryl, carboxy and thiourea groups in the adamantane core. The preliminary evaluation of the antiviral activity revealed that some of the synthesized species display moderate antiviral activity against HSV-1 (SI∼20) in Vero cells.     

New polymer syntheses. LXVI. Copolyester of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 3-(4'-hydroxyphenoxy)benzoic acid or 4-(3'-hydroxyphenoxy)benzoic acid

Copolyesters of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) and 3-(4'-hydroxyphenoxy)benzoic acid were prepared by two different procedures. Either the acetyl derivatives were polycondensed in bulk at temperatures up to 300°C or they were polycondensed in an inert reactions medium (Marlotherm-S) at 340°C. Two analogous series of copolyesters were synthesized from 4-acetoxybenzoic acid (4-HBA) and 4-(3'-acetoxyphenoxy)benzoic acid. The copolyesters were characterized by elemental analyses, inherent viscosities, ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopy, WAXS and DSC measurements, and by optical microscopy. All copolyesters synthesized in solution were highly crystalline materials which were neither meltable nor soluble. Part of the copolyesters prepared by polycondensation in bulk were semi-crystalline, meltable, and soluble. The copolyester derived from 3-(4'-hydroxyphenoxy)benzoic acid proved to be thermotropic forming a nematic melt, whereas the isomeric copolyesters of 4-(3'-hydroxyphenoxy)benzoic acid only formed isotropic melts. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

N- And S-Alkylation of 3-(1-Aadamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol and 2-(1-Adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol

ABSTRACT

-The reaction of 3-(1-adamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol 1 with certain 2-aminoethyl chlorides in alkaline medium yielded a separable mixture of the S-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 2 and the N-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 3. Meanwhile, alkylation of 2-(1-adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol 4 with 2-aminoethyl chlorides under the same conditions yielded only the S-alkyl derivatives 5. Interaction of 4 with primary or secondary amines and formaldehyde solution yielded the corresponding N-aminomethyl derivatives in high yields.     

[1+1]-cyclization of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2,6-diformylphenol with 1,3-bis(aminoalkyl)adamantanes

Selective [1+1]-cyclization of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2,6-diformylphenol with 1,3-bis(aminoalkyl)-adamantane under high dilution conditions in methanol was used to synthesize a new type of adamantine araliphanes, macrocyclic nitrogen-containing compounds with phenolic and adamantane fragments incorporated in the macroring. The [1+1]-cyclization reaction proceeds unusually to form, along with macrocyclic Schiff bases, methanol addition products at one of the N=CH groups of these compounds. The [1+1]-cyclization pattern is shown to depend on the reaction conditions and the structure of the starting diamine.     

Synthesis and characterization of aliphatic alpha-dithiones, di(1-adamantyl)- and di-tert-butylethanedithiones

2,3-Di(1-adamantyl)thiirene 1-oxide quickly reacted with Lawesson's reagent in CH2Cl2 at room temperature to provide di(1-adamantyl)ethanedithione (1) as thermally labile, violet crystals in 20% isolated yield. The use of CS2 as the solvent gave 1 in 46% isolated yield. The reaction in the presence of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate furnished dimethyl 4,5-di(1-adamantyl)-2,3-thiophenedicarboxylate in 51% yield. A tentative mechanism for the formation of 1 is proposed on the basis of the experimental observations. The structure of 1 was characterized on the basis of spectroscopic data (NMR, mass, IR, Raman, and UV/vis) and DFT calculations. 1 rearranged to 3,4-di(1-adamantyl)-1,2-dithiete quantitatively with kinetic parameters of DeltaH = 17.6 +/- 0.2 kcal mol-1, DeltaS = -23.0 +/- 0.7 cal K-1 mol-1, and DeltaG = 24.4 +/- 0.4 kcal mol-1. Peracid oxidation and Pt-complex formation of 1 are also reported.

Single enantiomers of 1,8-di(1-adamantyl)naphthalenes were synthesized by the [4+2]cycloaddition reaction of 6-adamantylbenzyne and 2-adamantylfuran. The enantiomers were resolved by conversion into diastereomeric ketopinic acid esters. The absolute configuration was determined by X-ray analysis. Kinetic studies by CD revealed an enantiomerization barrier of 29 kcal mol(-1) for 1,8-(1-adamantyl)naphthalenes.

The interaction of the sodium salts of 3-(1-adamantyl)-1-hydroxy-1-propen-3-one and 4-(1-adamantyl)-1-hydroxy-1-buten-3-one with hydroxylamine, hydrazine, and guanidine leads to the synthesis of 5-(1-adamantyl)-5-hydroxy- and 5-(1-adamantylmethyl)-5-hydroxy-2-isoxazolines, 3-(1-adamantyl)- and 3-(1-adamantylmethyl)pyrazoles, 3-(1-adamantyl)-2-phenylpyrazole, and 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-amino- and 4-(1-adamantylmethyl)-2-aminopyrimidines.

The ¹H NMR, IR, and ESR spectra and X-ray diffraction patterns of the synthesized compounds were obtained. Volatilily and thermal stability of the copper complex were studied by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry.     

Photoreactive polyamides having m- or 1-type dimer moiety derived from 4-(3-oxo-3-phenyl-1-propenyl)benzoic acid derivatives

Photoreactive polyamides having m- or 1 -type cyclobutane moiety were prepared via a topochemical photodimerization of 4-(3-oxo-3-phenyl-1-propenyl)benzoic derivatives,⁴ followed by polycondensation of cyclobutane dicarboxylate derivatives with diamines. From the spectral studies of resulted polyamides compared with the corresponding reference diamides, it was concluded that both types of polyamides were depolymerized photochemically to give the same type of amide derivative having chalcone moiety with a small amount of undefined side reaction. The cyclobutane ring of the m-dimer from 4-(3-oxo-3-phenyl-1-propenyl)benzoic acid in crystal is severely twisted presumably because of the enhanced steric repulsions between two pairs of adjacent substituents. The higher quantum yield of the m-dimer for the photocleavege, compared with that of the 1 -dimer, has been interpreted in terms of such steric repulsions by the strained structure of the m-dimer.
