The reaction of indol-2,3-diones ( 1a–i ) with 5-aminoindazole ( 2 ) has resulted in the formation of hitherto unknown 3-(indazol-5-yl)iminoindol-2-ones ( 3a–i ) in quantitative yields which, on 1,3-dipolar cyclocondensation with mercaptoacetic acid ( 4 ), has afforded a series of new spiro heterocycles, 3′-(indazol-5-yl) spiro[3H, indol-3, 2′ -thiazolidine]-2,4′-diones* ( 5a–i ).     

Enantioselective Recognition for Carboxylic Acids by Novel Chiral Macrocyclic Polyamides Derived from L-/D-tartaric Acid

The enantioselectivity of chiral macrocyclic polyamides 1–3 derived from L-/D-tartaric acid was investigated by using ¹H NMR. All the macrocycles exhibited certain chiral recognition towards the enantiomers of the racemic carboxylic acids we had chosen. As a chiral solvating agent, the compound 3 has the excellent enantiomeric discriminating ability for mandelic acids and its derivatives, containing an α-OH at the chiral carbon, while the compound 2 has the best enantioselectivity towards dibenzoyltartaric acid. The molar ratio and the association constants of the compound 3 with each of the enantiomers of some guest molecules were determined by using the Job's plots and a nonlinear leastsquares fitting method, respectively. The effect of the structure of the hosts or guests on the enantioselectivity of the compound 1–3 has been explored.     

SYNTHESE DU FOSTEDIL (4-(2-BENZOTHIAZOLYL) BENZYLPHOSPHONATE DE DIETHYLE) A PARTIR D'IMIDATES N-ACYLES

Fostedil (diethyl 4-(benzothiazol-2-yl) benzylphosphonate) 7 has been synthesized efficiently by treatment of 2-(4-bromomethylphenyl) benzothiazole 6 with triethylphosphite. The latter (6) has been prepared by bromation of benzothiazole 3c. N-acylimidates 1(a–d) react with 2-aminobenzenethiol 2 to lead to the corresponding benzothiazoles 3(a–d) after elimination of primary amide 5. The structure of these products have been unequivocally confirmed by means of IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy and mass spectra.

Self-activated DNA cleavage of a water-soluble mononuclear Cu(II) complex with polyquinolinyl ligand

The synthesis and characterization of a water-soluble mononuclear Cu(II) complex, [CuLCl₂]·2CH₃CH₂OH, where L = bis(2-quinolinyl methyl)benzyl-amine has been reported. L is a tridentate polyquinolinyl ligand, coordinated to Cu(II) via NNN donors. The central copper ion of 1 has N₃Cl₂ donor set in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The dimer existing in the solid state resulted from hydrogen bonds and π–π accumulation between two mononuclear units. The interaction of 1 with CT-DNA has been explored by absorption and emission titration methods, revealing partial intercalation between 1 and CT-DNA. Moreover, 1 could make pBR322 plasmid DNA cleaved by a self-activated oxidative process; hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen may be the main reactive oxygen species species in the process. Complex 1 may quench the intrinsic fluorescence of bovine serum albumin in a static quenching process, which has been investigated by UV–visible and fluorescence spectroscopic methods. 1 also demonstrates potent cytotoxity against Hela cells with IC₅₀ value of 2.84 μM, which shows it to be a potential candidate as an anticancer metal-based drug.

Structural insight into the anion–water cluster: stabilised by alcohol and carboxylic acid containing tripodal ligand

A new flexible N-bridged, unsymmetrical, water-soluble tripodal ligand (L) bearing alcohol and carboxylic acid groups has been synthesised and its solid-state interaction with anions has been investigated. The fully deprotonated ligand encapsulates a sodium cation in a half cryptand bowl-shaped cavity (1). The chloride complex 2, contains a cyclohexane-like water cluster incorporating ligand OH groups. However, complexes with bromide and nitrate (3 and 4) are dimeric. Tetrahedral clusters containing two water molecules and two anions were found in complexes 3 and 4. Perchlorate complex 5 forms perchlorate–methanol adducts. Complex 1 forms a hydrophilic cation–water channel and complexes 2–4 form anion–water channels between the hydrophobic layers of the naphthalene moieties. Complexes 2, 5 and 3, 4 are isostructural in nature having similar packing structures.     

Titanium-dioxide-mediated photocatalysis reaction of three selected pesticide derivatives

The photocatalysis reaction of three selected pesticide derivatives, namely methoxychlor (1), chlorothalonil (2) and disulfoton (3), has been investigated in an acetonitrile/water mixture in the presence of titanium dioxide and oxygen. The change as a function of irradiation time has been monitored using the UV spectroscopic analysis technique. An attempt has been made to identify the product formed during the photooxidation process through GC/MS analysis technique. The photolysis of methoxychlor (1) led to the formation of methoxychlor olefin (4) and 4,4-dimethoxybenzophenone (9), whereas chlorothalonil (2) gave rise to 2,3,4,5-tetrachlorophenol (17) as the only product. On the other hand, the photolysis of disulfoton (3) under analogous conditions gave disulfoton sulfoxide (25) and phosphorodithioic acid (21). All the products have been identified by comparing the molecular ion and mass fragmentation peaks of the products with those reported in the library. A probable mechanism for the formation of the products has been proposed.

Construction of the 17-Thiasteroid Ring System by the Diene-Sulfur Dioxide Cycloaddition Reaction

Abstract

We recently showed² that the steroid ring system can be constructed with a phosphorus atom replacing a carbon in the D-ring by the cycloaddition of a phosphorus (III) halide with a diene that is a vinyl dihydrophenanthrene derivative, such as (1). The phosphine oxide (3) resulting from the hydrolysis of the initial cycloadduct (2) has some resemblance to the hormone equilenin, which also has rings A and B in naphthalene form.     

Synthesis,Alkali Metal Picrate Extraction Properties,and X-Ray Crystal Structure of a Novel,Cage-Annulated Monoaza-18-Crown-6 Host

Compound 5, a cage-annulated monoaza-18-crown-6 macrocyclic polyether, has been synthesized, and its alkali metal picrate extraction capabilities have been assessed relative to those of the parent monoaza-18-crown-6 host system. It was observed that both 5 and monoaza-18-crown-6 are selective K⁺ picrate extractants; however, 5 appears generally to be a somewhat more efficient alkali metal picrate extractant than monoaza-18-crown-6. Interestingly, both the avidity and selectivity of 5 toward extraction of alkali metal picrates from aqueous solution into CHCl₃ appears to be pH dependent. In addition, the X-ray crystal structure of an unusual hydronium ion complex of 5 [i.e., 5(HCl)(H ₂ O)-(CHCl ₃ ) ₂] has been determined. The X-ray structure thus determined is compared with the corresponding structure of 5(HCl)(H ₂ O) that has been calculated via application of B3LYP Density Functional Theory.     

Synthesis and reactivity of furazanyl- and furoxanyldiazonium salts

Diazotization of aminofurazans (1) and 4-aminofuroxans (2) with nitrosylsulfuric acid in a mixture of conc. H₂SO₄ and H₃PO₄ has been studied and offered as a general method for preparing furazanyl- (3) and furoxanyldiazonium (4) salts. It has been shown that reactions with the retention of the N-N-group (azo coupling, formation of triazenes and azides) are typical of salts3 and4, while elimination of the N₂ molecule (Sandmeyer reaction, hydrolysis, reduction) is not typical.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A SYNTHETIC ROUTE TO 3-METHYLTHIO-2-ALKANONES STARTING FROM 3-ALKYL-2,4-PENTANEDIONES

Abstract

An efficient preparation of a 3-methylthio-2-alkanone (1) has been realized by the reaction of a 3-alkyl-2,4-pentanedione (8) with one mol-equiv of S-methyl methanethiosulfonate (4) in the presence of excess EtONa in EtOH. Furthermore, treatment of 8 with 4 and K₂CO₃ in refluxing acetone, followed by addition of MeOH and heating the resulting mixture, gave 1 in a high yield. These methods were applied to synthesis of pseudoionone.     

Titanium-dioxide-mediated photocatalysed reaction of selected organic systems

The photocatalysed reaction of four selected organic systems, namely dichlone (1), 2-amino-5-chloropyridine (2), benzoyl peroxide (3) and 3-chloro perbenzoic acid (4), has been investigated in an acetonitrile/water mixture in the presence of titanium dioxide and oxygen. An attempt has been made to identify the products formed during the photo-oxidation process using the GC/MS analysis technique. The photolysis of dichlone (1) leads to the formation of phthalic anhydride (11) and 1H-indene-1,2,3-trione (10), whereas 2-amino-5-chloropyridine (2) gave rise to 2,2′-diamino bipyridyl (14), 2-pyridinamine (16), 2-hydroxy-5-chloropyridine (18), bipyridyl (19) and 2-amino bipyridyl (21). The photolysis of benzoyl peroxide (3) yielded a mixture of products such as benzoic acid (24), biphenyl (27), biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid (29) and benzoic acid phenyl ester (30). Two intermediate products, as 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (35) and hydroxyl added 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (33), have been identified in the case of 3-chloro perbenzoic acid (4). The products have been identified by comparing the molecular ion and mass fragmentation peaks of the products with those reported in the GC-MS library. A probable mechanism for the formation of the products has been proposed.     

Microwave assisted synthesis and X-ray structure of a novel anthracene-derived aminophosphonate. Enantioseparation of two α-aminophosphonates and genotoxicity in vivo

A novel anthracene-derived α-aminophosphonate has been synthesized through a classical addition reaction of dimethyl phosphite to a Schiff base and via a microwave assisted Kabachnik–Fields reaction. The compound has been characterized by elemental analysis, TLC, IR, NMR, and fluorescent spectra. The X-ray analysis showed that the compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca (N° 61) with one molecule per asymmetric unit. The enantioseparation of two racemic aminophosphonates (5 and 6) into enantiomers (5a, 5b and 6a, 6b, respectively) has been performed. Data about genotoxicity and antiproliferative activity in vivo of the racemic compounds and their enantiomeric forms is also presented. The studied racemic α-aminophosphonates 5 and 6 and their enantiomers have weak genotoxic effect. Both pairs of enantiomers did not show a significant inhibition of cell dividing processes in the bone marrow cells compared to 5 and 6. The hematopoietic function of the bone marrow will not be discontinued after exposure of the tested compounds.     

Enantiomeric and Diastereomeric Relationships of Ethylene Derivatives. Restructuring Stereochemistry by a Group-Theoretical and Combinatorial Approach

To restructure stereochemistry into a systematic format, enantiomeric and diastereomeric relationships have been investigated by using ethylene derivatives as examples in the light of a new group-theoretical and combinatorial approach. On one hand, enantiomeric relationship for ethylene derivatives has been characterized by means of a point group of order 8 (D _2h ), where chirality fittingness based on the sphericity concept has been applied to the enumeration of stereoisomers. On the other hand, diastereomeric relationship for ethylene derivatives has been examined by a permutation group of order 8 (S ₉ ^[4]), which is a subgroup of the symmetric group of order 4 (S ^[4]) and isomorphic to a point group D _2d . The subgroups of S ₉ ^[4] have been classified into stereogenic and astereogenic ones. A stereogenic subgroup corresponds to a pair of diastereomers, while an astereogenic subgroup is assigned to a self-diastereomer. The relationship between diastereomers and constitutional isomers have been also discussed.

Three novel Schiff base transition metal(II) complexes induce gastric cancer cell death through ROS-mediated apoptotic pathway

Abstract

A new tridentate Schiff base ligand, 2-((2-(dimethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)-6-ethoxyphenol (HL₁), has been prepared by a one-pot condensation reactions, which was further used in the construction of three novel Schiff base transition metal(II) complexes, [Cu(L₁)(MeOH)](NO₃) (1), [Co(L₁)(MeOH)₂(N₃)] (2) and [Cu(L₁)(HCOO)]_n (3). Furthermore, a green hand-grinding technique has been implemented to reduce the particle size of the coordination complexes to generate the nanoscale compounds. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) studies reveal the formation of square and spherical particles for nano 1 and nanorod for nano 2 and 3. In addition, CCK-8 assay was conducted to detect the antiproliferative activity of nano 1–3 on human gastric cancer MGC-803 cells. The cell viability curves and IC₅₀ (half maximal inhibitory concentration) values indicated that only nano 1 has excellent anticancer activity on MGC-803 cells but not nano 2 and 3. The Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assay and DCFH-DA staining were performed to detect the apoptosis of MGC-803 cancer cells.     

Assembly,crystal structures,and luminescent properties of three new thiocyanate-bridging mercury(II) coordination polymers

Two ligands, 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridin-3-yl)-ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile (L1) and 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile (L2), were synthesized. By reaction of mercury thiocyanate with L1 and L2, respectively, coordination polymers [Hg(L1)(μ_1,3-SCN)₂]_n (1), [Hg(L1)₂(μ_1,3-SCN)₂]_n (2), and [Hg(L2)(μ_1,3-SCN)(SCN)]_n (3) with different structures and topologies were obtained. In 1, the thiocyanate shows μ_1,3-SCN bridging coordination, and adjacent Hg(II) ions are bridged by two μ_1,3-SCN ions to form an infinite chain with the remaining position of five-coordinate Hg(II) occupied by L1. In 2, the thiocyanate has the same coordination as 1. However, Hg(II) has octahedral coordination with two L1 involved in coordination. An unusual feature of 3 is the presence of two types of thiocyanates, one has a S-terminal ligand and the other has a μ_1,3-SCN bridge. The mercury(II) in 3 is four-coordinated by L2 and three thiocyanates. Luminescent properties and thermal stabilities of 1–3 were studied.
