<正>Acetonylacetone 1 was treated with thiourea,aniline,glycine and glutamic acid to give pyrrole derivatives 2,3,5,and 9 by Paal-Knorr reaction,respectively.Then 3 was successfully transformed into the related pyrrole derivative 4 by Mannich reaction. Compounds 6,7 and 8 were obtained by reacting 5 with phenethyl alcohol,phenylallylic alcohol and leaf alcohol by esterification reactions,respectively.The structures of all new products were elucidated by IR,NMR and HRMS spectra.     

Synthesis of Thiourea Derivatives on Soluble Polymeric Support

A modified poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) has been developed as the soluble polymeric supports for liquid phase synthesis of novel thiourea derivatives.In each step of the sequence,the PEG-bound products were precipitated in cold Et2O and the unreacted materials and by-products were removed by simple filtration.The progress of reaction,purity of the isolation and the structure of the PEG-bound products were easily monitored by TLC,IR and ^1H NMR spectra.Representative thiourea derivatives were obtained in moderate yields with excellent purity from this modified PEG-bound product by the cleavage with 50% TFA/H2O.     

Synthesis and reactions of some 6-aryl and 2,6-diaryl-4-(4''''-antipyrinyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridasin-3-ones and screening for their antibacterial activities

Some new pyridazinone derivatives(3) were synthesized through addition of antipyrin to β-aroylacrylic acids (1) followed by cyclization of the adducts. Reactions of 3 with ethyl bromoacetate,benzenesulfonyl chloride, benzoyl chloride and POCl_3 give N-substituted products and monochlorosub-stituted pyridazines (4), respectively. The reactions of the latter with thiourea give unexpected dithio-derivatives(5), which react with phenylhydrazine to give pyrazolopyridazino pyridazine derivatives (6).Reactions of 2 with NH_2OH in ethanol and pyridine afford oxime and oxazinone derivatives 7 and 8,tespectively. The antibacterial activities of several compounds were screened.

A series of C₂-symmetric and asymmetric chiral thiourea derivatives were synthesized from commercial L-phenylalanine.All of the new compounds have been fully characterized by IR,¹H NMR,¹³C NMR,MS spectra and elemental analyses.The chiral thioureas were used as chiral ligands in the catalytic enantioselective ethylation of aldehydes with diethylzinc,the corresponding sec-alcohols were gained with excellent enantioselectivities（up to 87.1%ee） and high yields（up to 76.7%） after the conditions were optimized.     

不同浓度和温度时无机盐和尿素对抗抑郁剂药物丙咪嗪盐酸盐的胶束化行为的影响

In the present study we report the micellization behavior of imipramine hydrochloride(IMP)in absence and presence of different concentrations of inorganic salts(LiCl,NaF,NaCl,NaBr,and KCl)and ureas(urea and thiourea)over the temperature range from 288.15 to 303.15 K.The critical micellization concentrations(cmc)of drug and drug+additive systems were determined by conductometric technique. With increasing temperature the cmc first increases then decreases.Maximum cmc values were obtained at 293.15 K with or without additives.In presence of inorganic salts the cmc value decreases which is explained on the basis of nature and ion size of the added ion.Urea and thiourea also decrease the cmc at low concentrations(0.2 mmo·lL -1 urea and 0.1 mmo·lL -1 thiourea),but,at higher concentrations,increase in cmc is observed.The related thermodynamic parameters are also evaluated and discussed.     

A New Approach to the Asymmetric Reaction of the Chiron 5－L－Menthyloxy－2（5H）－furanones with Horner－Emmons Reagent

The asymmetric reaction of the chiron 2(5H )-furanones (4a-4c) with the Horner-Emmons reagents (5a-5b) has been investigated. The newly chirai organophosphorus derivatives 6 and 7 were obtained using the phosphoryl-stabilized carbanion as a building block in DMSO under mild conditions. Through the asymmetric introduction, the Horner-Emmons reagent could be transformed to a chiral building block to afford the novel functionalized phosphorus derivatives. The structures of the synthesized compounds 6 and 7 were identified on the basis of their elementary and spectroscopic data, such as IR,^1H NMR, ^13C NMR, MS and X-ray crystallography. These resuits provided a valuable approach to the synthesis of potentially interesting chirai organophosphorus derivatives and probing their biological activities.     

利用脱镁叶绿酸甲酯的化学修饰合成红紫素酰亚胺衍生物

A series of novel purpurin-18 imide derivatives exhibiting long wavelength absorption and amphiphilicity wereobtained from methyl pheophorbide-a(MPa)by modification of the peripheral functional groups.The vinyl groupat 3-position was oxidized with OsO_4 and NaIO_4 to form the formyl group and the Grignard reaction of this alde-hyde with the alkyl magnesium bromide was carried out to give the corresponding 3-(1-hydroxylalkyl)pheophor-bide-a.The E-ring of these chlorines was converted into anhydride ring to give purpurin derivatives by air oxidation.The trans-3~2-alkyl purpurin derivatives were obtained by dehydration of hydroxyl group at 3~1-position.TheN-hydroxyl purpurin imide was generated by treatment of the anhydride ring with bydroxylamine hydrochloride.The 3~1-alkylacyl-N-hydroxyl purpurin imides were obtained by oxidation of hydroxyl group at 3~1-position.Theacylation of N-hydroxyl group was completed to afford N-acyloxy purpurin imides.The photocytoxicity of severalcompounds in vitro were tested.     

Asymmetric Synthesis of N-（Diphenylphosphinyl）furfurylamine by the Enantioselective Alkylation of Furfurylimine

Catalytic asymmetric domino Michael addition-alkylation reaction: enantioselective synthesis of dihydrofurans

A catalytic enantioselective synthesis of dihydrofurans has been developed. 1,3-Dicarbonyl derivatives react with (E)-β,β-bromonitrostyrenes in the presence of a chiral bifunctional thiourea catalyst providing mild and efficient access to diverse polysubstituted dihydrofurans in good yields and enantioselectivities.     

Enantioselective Synthesis of Highly Functionalized Dihydrofurans through Copper‐Catalyzed Asymmetric Formal [3+2] Cycloaddition of β‐Ketoesters with Propargylic Esters

An enantioselective synthesis of highly functionalized dihydrofurans through a copper‐catalyzed asymmetric [3+2] cycloaddition of β‐ketoesters with propargylic esters has been developed. With a combination of Cu(OTf)₂ and a chiral tridentate P,N,N ligand as the catalyst, a variety of 2,3‐dihydrofurans bearing an exocyclic double bond at the 2 position were obtained in good chemical yields and with good to high enantioselectivities. The exocyclic double bond can be hydrogenated in a highly diastereoselective fashion to give unusual cis‐2,3‐dihydrofuran derivatives, thus further enhancing the scope of this transformation.     

Synthesis of Dihydropyrans and Dihydrofurans via Radical Cyclization of Unsaturated Alcohols and 1,3‐Dicarbonyl Compounds

The oxidative cyclization reactions of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds 1a – 1c and α,β‐unsaturated alcohols 2a – 2f with Mn(OAc)₃ were performed, leading to dihydrofurans. Treatment of 1a and 1b with 2‐methylbut‐3‐en‐2‐ol ( 2a ) gave dihydrofurans 3aa and 3ba , and dihydropyrans 4aa and 4ba , as unexpected products. While the reaction of 2‐methylbut‐3‐yn‐2‐ol ( 2b ) with acetylacetone ( 1b ) yielded a bifuran, ethyl acetoacetate ( 1a ) led to a mixture of furan, bifuran, and salicylate derivatives. Besides, surprisingly, styryl‐substituted dihydrofurans were obtained from the reactions of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds and (3E)‐2,4‐diphenylbut‐3‐en‐2‐ol. The reaction mechanisms were proposed for the formation of the different products, considering intermediates in these reaction mixtures.

Conclusions Polyfluorinated tetrahydro-1,3,5-oxadiazine derivatives were obtained by the condensation of urea and thiourea with polyfluoro ketones.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 2168–2169, September, 1977.     

Synthesis of Functionalized Dihydrofurocoumarin Derivatives from 3-Aminoalkyl-4-hydroxycoumarin

Some dihydrofuro-fused coumarin derivatives were synthesized from 3-aminoalkyl-4-hydroxycoumarin via in situ generation of N-ylide. The 3-aminoalkylated 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives were synthesized from one-pot, three-component reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin, aryl aldehydes, and secondary amines in ethanol at room temperature. Again, when salicylaldehyde was employed instead of benzaldehyde, interestingly pyranocoumarins were obtained. The reaction protocol can be further explored toward the synthesis of many other heterocyclic fused dihydrofurans.     

A Two Step Synthesis of 1,2,3-Substituted Pyrroles

A method for preparing substituted pyrroles 3a-g in two steps from dihydrofurans 2a-b which were synthesized from α,α-diazocarbonyl derivatives 1a-b was developed. The relevance of this research work lies in the easiness of preparing the substituted dihydrofurans and transforming them into pyrroles under mild conditions.     

Radical Cyclization of Fluorinated 1,3‐Dicarbonyl Compounds with Dienes Using Manganese(III) Acetate and Synthesis of Fluoroacylated 4,5‐Dihydrofurans

Radical cyclizations of fluorinated 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds with dienes mediated by Mn(OAc)₃ afforded 4,5‐dihydrofurans containing difluoroacetyl, trifluoroacetyl, or heptafluorobutanoyl groups in good‐to‐excellent yields. Additionally, 2‐(difluoromethyl)‐4,5‐dihydrofurans and a 4,7‐dihydrooxepin derivative were obtained as unexpected products in the reaction of 4,4‐difluoro‐1‐phenylbutane‐1,3‐dione with 1,3‐diphenylbuta‐1,3‐diene. The radical cyclization of symmetrical dienes such as 2,3‐dimethylbuta‐1,3‐diene and 1,4‐diphenylbuta‐1,3‐diene with 1,3‐diketones furnished the corresponding products in low yields. However, treatment of 1‐phenylbuta‐1,3‐diene with 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds afforded 4,5‐dihydrofurans containing fluoroacyl groups. The radical cyclizations with 3‐methyl‐1‐phenylbuta‐1,3‐diene and 1,3‐diphenylbuta‐1,3‐diene led to 4,5‐dihydrofurans in good yields, since Me and Ph groups at C(3) of these dienes increase the stability of the radical intermediate.     

Synthesis of 2‐Amino 3‐Substituted Quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one Derivatives via Iodine‐Mediated Guanidinylation of Pbf‐Activated Thiourea

2‐Amino 3‐substituted‐quinazolin‐4(3H)‐one derivatives were synthesized from Pbf‐isothiocyanate and methyl anthranilate. The construction of the guanidine‐containing quinazolinone heterocyclic skeleton was achieved using Pbf‐activated thiourea treated with primary amines via iodine‐mediated guanidinylation. The desired compounds were obtained after Pbf cleavage by trifluoroacetic acid.     

Design and Synthesis of Novel Thioureas Derived from 4‐(4‐Fluorophenoxy)aniline as Anticancer Agents

A new series of thiourea derivatives were obtained by the reaction of 4‐(4‐fluorophenoxy) aniline with different isothiocyanates. Their chemical structures were confirmed by ultraviolet (UV ), infrared (IR ), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR ), and mass spectral data and elemental analysis. All the synthesized thiourea derivatives were evaluated for their in vitro cancer activity against the human breast cancer cell lines MCF ‐7 (human breast adenocarcinoma) and SKBr ‐3 (human epithelial breast adenocarcinoma). Most of the derivatives exhibited significant anticancer activity. Especially, compound 3 showed the most potent activity (IC₅₀ 20.1 μM ) against SKBr ‐3 when compared with the drugs 5‐fluorouracil and cisplatin, and, most importantly, it did not affect normal breast epithelial cells (4010).     

Organocatalytic Asymmetric Friedel–Crafts Reaction of Sesamol with Isatins: Access to Biologically Relevant 3‐Aryl‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐oxindoles

The Friedel–Crafts reaction of electron‐rich phenols with isatins was developed by employing bifunctional thiourea–tertiary amine organocatalysts. Cinchona alkaloid derived thiourea epiCDT‐ 3 a efficiently catalyzed the Friedel–Crafts‐type addition of phenols to isatin derivatives to provide 3‐aryl‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐oxindoles 7 and 9 in good yield (80–95 %) with good enantiomeric excess (83–94 %). Friedel–Crafts adduct 7 t was subjected to a copper(I)‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition to obtain biologically important 3‐aryl‐3‐hydroxy‐2‐oxindole 11 in good enantiomeric excess and having a 1,2,3‐triazole moiety.
