NiY分子筛选择性吸附脱硫性能及作用机理

用液相离子交换法制备了NiY分子筛,并用XRD、TEM、ICP、N2吸附和吡啶吸附原位红外技术等表征手段对其进行了表征. 利用固定床、气相色谱-硫发光检测器（GC-SCD）及傅里叶红外光谱（FT-IR）等方法系统研究了NiY分子筛对噻吩、2-甲基噻吩、3-甲基噻吩、四氢噻吩、苯并噻吩、二苯并噻吩、4-甲基二苯并噻吩、4,6-二甲基二苯并噻吩8种有机硫化物的选择性吸附脱硫性能和吸附机理. 结果表明,NiY分子筛对硫化物的穿透吸附硫容量顺序为四氢噻吩﹥苯并噻吩≈二苯并噻吩≈4,6-二甲基二苯并噻吩﹥4-甲基二苯并噻吩﹥2-甲基噻吩≈3-甲基噻吩﹥噻吩,说明有机硫化物的空间位阻效应不是其在NiY分子筛上吸附的决定因素. 红外结果表明,不同硫化物与NiY分子筛的作用机理并不相同,但主要以硫原子与金属离子配位作用（S-M作用）为主. 噻吩及其烷基取代物在NiY吸附剂上表面酸性作用下发生催化反应,噻吩环的共轭体系遭到破坏形成硫化物大分子或聚合物,导致分子筛孔道的堵塞,严重影响吸附剂的吸附脱硫能力. NiY的选择性吸附脱硫性能是硫化物与吸附中心的作用模式及吸附剂表面酸性综合作用的结果.     

Synthesis of certain alkenyl purines and purine analogs

Synthesis of alkenyl derivatives of certain purines and purine analogs is described. Direct alkylation of the sodium salt of 6-chloropurine (1) either with 1-bromo-2-pentene or 4-bromo-2-methyl-2-butene in N,N-dimethylformamide furnished N-7, 4a and N-9, 3a , 3b alkenyl derivatives. Similar alkylation of 2-amino-6-chloropurine (2) provided the corresponding N-7, 4c-4e and N-9, 3c-3e alkenyl derivatives. Acid hydrolysis of these chloro derivatives 3a-3e, 4a,c-e furnished the corresponding alkenyl hypoxan-thines 6a, 6b and 7a or alkenyl guanines 6c-6e and 7c-7e. Treatment of 3a-3d with thiourea in absolute ethanol provided the corresponding 6-thio derivatives 5a-5d. Alkylation of the sodium salt of either purine-6-carboxamide (8) or 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide (10) gave mainly one isomer 9a, 9b and 11a, 11b. The direct alkylation of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (12) gave N-3 alkenyl derivatives 13a, 13b , and the N-7 alkenyl derivatives 16a, 16b have been prepared starting from the 4-chloro derivative 14 . Synthesis of 2-amino-7-(2-penten-1-yl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (19a) has been accomplished starting from 2-amino-4-methoxypyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine (17) . These alkenyl derivatives were found to be devoid of anti-HCMV activity in vitro.     

Synthesis of 1,2-Diazol-4-sulfonamides, 1,2,4- and 1,2,5-Oxadiazol-3-sulfonamides, 1,2,3-Triazol-4-sulfonamides, and Pyrimidine-5-sulfonamides starting from Cyanomethanesulfonyl Chloride

Summary. Cyanomethanesulfonyl chloride was reacted with amines yielding cyanomethanesulfonamides which could be transformed into alkoxymethylidene and aminomethylidene derivatives. The reaction of alkoxymethylidene derivatives with phenylhydrazine resulted in the formation of 5-aminopyrazol-4-sulfonamides, whereas from cyanomethanesulfonamides via the N-hydroxyamidine derivatives and their reaction with esters 1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-methanesulfonamides became accessible. Nitrosation of cyanomethanesulfonamides yielded 2-hydroxyimino derivatives which were then transformed into 2-hydroxyimino N-hydroxyamidine derivatives, and finally cyclized into 4-amino-1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-sulfonamides. On the other hand diazotation of cyanomethanesulfonamides gave the 2-arylhydrazono derivatives, which after transformation into N-hydroxyamidine derivatives gave by reaction with POCl₃ 5-amino-1,2,3-triazol-4-sulfonamides. Finally, the reaction between cyanomethanesulfonamides and formamidinium acetate opened an easy access to 4-aminopyrimidine-5-sulfonamides, which could be transformed by trialkyl orthoformiates into substituted pyrimidino[4,5-e][1,2,4]thiadiazine derivatives. All intermediates as well as transformation products of the heterocyclic systems were isolated and well characterized. Mechanisms were discussed, and the stereochemistry, when necessary and possible, was elucidated.     

Synthesis of 4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐1‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazolidine‐3,5‐dione derivatives through cyclic transformations of 3‐(2‐phenylcarbazoyl)‐2(3H)‐benzoxazolone derivatives

Four 3‐(3‐benzylidene‐2‐phenylcarbazoyl)‐2(3H)‐benzoxazolone derivatives 3 have been synthesized from benzoxazolone derivatives 1 and benzaldehyde N‐chloroformylphenylhydrazone 2. By acid hydrolysis, these compounds yielded 3‐(2‐phenylcarbazoyl)‐2(3H)benzoxazolone derivatives 4 which were not isolated and were transformed via an intramolecular reaction into 4‐(2‐hydroxyphenyl)‐1‐phenyl‐1,2,4‐triazolidine‐3,5‐dione derivatives 5 in a good yield. Attempts to cyclize these compounds by intramolecular elimination of water into tricyclic compounds 6 with various dehydrating agents were unsuccessful.     

Synthesis of 3-arylamino-4(3H)quinazolinone derivatives from 1-acetyl- or 1-ethoxycarbonylmethylene-2-arylhydrazines

By reacting 1-acetyl- or 1-ethoxycarbonylehloromethylene-2-arylhydrazines ( 2a-c ) with anthranilic acids (1a-b) the corresponding C-acetyl- or C-ethoxyearbonylcarbohydrazonamide derivatives (3a-d) were obtained. Ring closure of the carbohydrazonamides with acetic anhydride afforded 2-carboethoxy- or 2-acetyl-3-arylamino-4(3H)quinazolinones ( 4a-d ). The ester derivatives undergo basic hydrolysis with decarboxylation to 3-arylamino-4(3H)quinazolinones ( 5a-b ).     

Michael-Addition Reaction of Malononitrile with α,β-Unsaturated Cycloketones Catalyzed by KF／Al2O3

A series of KF/Al2O3 catalyzed Michael-addition reactions between malononitrile and α,β-unsaturated cycloketones in DMF solution were studied. At room temperature, 2-cyano-3-aryl-3-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-one-2-yl) propionitrile derivatives were synthesized by the reaction between 2-arylmethylidene-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydronaphthalen-1-one and malononitrile. However, if the temperature was increased to 80℃, 2-amino-3-cyano-4-aryl-4H-benzo[h]chromene derivatives were obtained in high yields. When the α,β-unsaturated ketones were replaced by 2,6-biarylmethylidenecyclohexanone or 2,5-biarylmethylidenecyclopentanone, another series of 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyran derivatives was isolated successfully. The structures of the products were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.

Thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidines. Part I. synthesis and anti-human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) activity in vitro of certain alkyl derivatives

Alkyl derivatives of the thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine congeners of guanine and uracil were prepared and assessed for in vitro activity against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). The finding that the 3-pentyl 1b and 3-hexyl 1c derivatives of 5-aminothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,7(3H,6H)-dione (1e) had potent in vitro anti-HCMV activity prompted a broader study of alkyl derivatives in this ring system. A series of 3-alkyl derivatives of 1e , viz. 1f-w , were prepared by direct alkylation of the sodium salt of 1e and by subsequent modifications, 2a-d. For comparison with 1c , 5-amino-2-hexylaminothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7(6H)-one (4) was prepared and studied. The 3-(2-alkenyl) derivatives of 1e were found to be the more active antiviral agents with the Z isomer of 5-amino-3-(2-penten-1-yl)thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,7(3H,6H)-dione (1f) having the better therapeutic index. Analogous 4-(2-alkenyl) derivatives of 2-aminothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-5,7(4H,6H)-dione 6a and 6b were also prepared but were found to have poor therapeutic indices. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis was used to unequivocally establish the structure of 1f.     

Reactions with 2-mercaptopyrimidines. Synthesis of some new thiazolo[3,2-a]- and triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines

Alkylation of 5-cyano-4-oxo-6-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine I with methyl iodide, chloroacetic acid or 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione, afforded the S-alkyl derivatives IIa-c. 2-Carboxymethylthio and 2-(2′,4′-dioxopentan-3-ylthio) derivatives IIb and IIc could be cyclised by acetic anhydride or polyphosphoric acid to give 6-cyano-3,5-dioxo-5H-7-phenylthiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine III and 2-acetyl-6-carboxamido-5H-3-methyl-7-phenylthiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine-5-one IX , respectively. Benzoylation of 2-hydrazinopyrimidine derivative XII , in anhydrous dioxan, afforded the N-benzoyl derivative XIII , which could be cyclised by heating in dimethylformamide to give 5-amino-6-cyano-3,7-diphenyl-s-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidine ( XIV ). The 2-hydrazinopyrimidine derivatives XII and XV reacted with benzoyl isothiocyanate in dioxane to yield 4-benzoylthiosemicarbazide derivatives XVI and XVII , which were converted into the 2-s-trizolopyrimidine derivatives XVIII and XIX , respectively. Also, XVI and XVII reacted with 2,4-pentanedione and 3-chloro-2,4-pentanedione to yield 2-pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives XX and XXI , respectively.     

Spectroscopic study of liquid crystalline N-[4-(4-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy)2-hydroxybenzylidene]hydroxyanilines

New homologous series of N-[4-(4-n-alkoxybenzoyloxy)-2-hydroxybenzylidene]hydroxyanilines were synthesized. All 4-hydroxyaniline derivatives exhibited a nematic phase, while 3-hydroxyaniline and 2-hydroxyaniline derivatives exhibited only a nematic phase as the terminal alkoxy group was lengthened. Infrared spectra suggest that the 4-hydroxyaniline derivatives form intermolecular hydrogen bonding of the single bridge type, while the 3-hydroxy and 2-hydroxy derivatives form the polymer type. The Raman band at around 1360 cm^-1 exhibited large differences in intensity among these derivatives. This can be explained by the effect of intermolecular or hydrogen bonding molecular conformation.     

Synthesis of new pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one derivatives and some oxazolo[4,5-c]quinoline-2,4-diones

The new pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-one derivatives 3a-c and 6a-c were prepared by the following three steps: first the preparation of ethyl 4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylate derivatives 1 and 4 by reaction of isatoic anhydrides and ethyl malonate and ethyl acetoacetate respectively, then chloration of 1 and 4 with phosphorus oxychloride to give 2 and 5 and finally the condensation of 2 and 5 with hydrazine and its derivatives. In addition, the successful synthesis of oxazolo[4,5-c]quinoline-2,4-diones 9a-f are reported.

The reaction of 2-styrylbenzoic acids 2 with N-phenylselenosuccinimide (N-PSS) affords 3-phenyl-iso-coumarin derivatives 3 and 3,4-dihydro-3-phenyl-4-(phenylseleno)isocoumarins 4 via selenolactonization. The reaction of 2-styrylbenzamides 5 and 1-(2-aminophenyl)-3-phenyl-2-peropen-1-one derivatives 11 with N-PSS also resulted in the formation of 1-isoquinolone 6 and 4(1H)-quinolone derivatives 12 , respectively.     

Studies on the synthesis of some styryl-3-cyano-2(1H)-pyridinethiones and polyfunctionally substituted 3-aminothieno[2,3-b]-pyridine derivatives

Sixteen Schiff bases of quinazolin‐4‐one‐linked 1,3,4‐oxadiazoles were synthesized by reaction with different aromatic aldehydes. Purity of newly synthesized derivatives was confirmed through thin‐layer chromatography, combustion analysis, and melting point. The structure of the derivatives was confirmed by determining infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopy. All the synthesized derivatives were evaluated for their analgesic and anti‐inflammatory activities in mice and rats, respectively. In animal studies, the derivative (E )‐3‐(5‐(4‐(4‐methoxybenzylideneamino)phenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐phenylquinazolin‐4(3H )‐one showed more potent analgesic activity and the derivative (Z )‐3‐(5‐(2‐(2‐hydroxybenzylideneamino)phenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐phenylquinazolin‐4(3H )‐one showed more potent anti‐inflammatory activity as compared with other derivatives. The results of the present study indicate that reactions of 3‐(5‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐phenylquinazolin‐4(3H )‐one and 3‐(5‐(2‐aminophenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)‐2‐phenylquinazolin‐4(3H )‐one with different aromatic aldehydes produce Schiff bases of quinazolin‐4‐one‐linked 1,3,4‐oxadiazoles with potent analgesic and anti‐inflammatory activities.
