Synthesis of 2(5H)-Furanone Derivatives with Symmetrical and Unsymmetrical Bis-1,2,3-triazole Structure

The interesting bioactivities of 2(5H)-furanone, 1,2,3-triazole, and amino acid derivatives have promoted their combination into one multifunctional molecule. The symmetrical bis-1,2,3-triazoles and mono-1,2,3-triazoles with one free azide group are synthesized respectively by controlling the molar ratio of reactants, N-[5-alkoxy-2(5H)-furanonyl] amino acid propargyl ester and 1,4-diazidobutane. The unsymmetrical bis-1,2,3-triazoles are afforded by the subsequent reaction of mono-1,2,3-triazoles with other terminal alkynes with good to excellent yields in a short time under the same mild “click” reaction conditions. The 32 new compounds obtained in the reactions are characterized by Fourier transform infrared, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. Because of the diversity of four or five basic units in molecule, this methodology provides easy access to different chiral 2(5H)-furanone compounds with polyheterocyclic structure, especially with unsymmetrical bis-1,2,3-triazole moiety. Importantly, a simple approach is provided for the synthesis of unsymmetrical bis-1,2,3-triazoles using common diazides.     

Energetic Materials with Promising Properties: Synthesis and Characterization of 4,4′‐Bis(5‐nitro‐1,2,3‐2H‐triazole) Derivatives

Using a variety of functionalization strategies, derivatives of 4, 4′‐bis(5‐nitro‐1,2,3‐2H‐triazole) were designed, synthesized, and characterized. The isomers were separated, their structures were confirmed with single‐crystal X‐ray analysis, and their properties were determined by differential scanning calorimetry, density, impact sensitivity, heat of formation, and detonation velocity and pressure (calculated by EXPLO5 V6.01). Those materials were found to exhibit superior detonation performance when compared with the other fully carbon‐nitrated bis(azoles).

An efficient synthesis of novel mono and bis‐1,2,3‐triazoles 3′‐azido‐2′‐deoxythymidine (AZT) derivatives via copper(I)‐catalyzed 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reaction is described. Starting from AZT and terminal alkyne derivatives, mono and bis‐1,2,3‐triazole AZT derivatives are regioselectively obtained in good yields under mild conditions using CuSO4·5H2O and sodium ascorbate as a catalyst system, and t‐BuOH/H₂O (1:1, v/v) as a co‐solvent. The structures of these compounds were elucidated by IR, HR MS and NMR.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Thermal Behaviors of 4-Amino-5-nitro-1,2,3-triazole(ANTZ)and Its Derivatives

α‐Chloroformylarylhydrazones 1 and α‐chloroformylarylhydrazones of sydnonecarbaldehydes 3 have been prepared by a new synthetic route: α‐chloroformylarylhydrazines hydrochlorides 2 reacted with corresponding carbonyl compounds. Reactions of compounds 3 with various hydrazines to give 6‐sydnonyl‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazinan‐3‐ones 7 and/or carbazones 8 were also investigated. By oxidization with lead dioxide, compounds 7 were trans formed to stable 6‐sydnonyl‐3,4‐dihydro‐3‐oxo‐1,2,4,5‐tetrazin‐1(2H)‐yl radical derivatives 9 (sydnonyl verdazyls). Furthermore, sydnonecarbaldehydes arylhydrazones 5 through acidic conditions could be transferred to 4‐arylamino‐1,2,3‐triazoles 6 which were also obtained by means of acidic decompositions of 4‐formylsydnones 10 .

Accelerated Solvent‐ and Catalyst‐Free Synthesis of 1,2,3‐Triazolium‐Based Poly(Ionic Liquid)s

A straightforward and expeditious monotopic approach for the preparation of 1,2,3‐triazolium‐based poly(ionic liquids) (TPILs) is reported. It is based on the solvent‐ and catalyst‐free polyaddition of an α‐azide‐ω‐alkyne monomer in the presence of methyl iodide or N‐methyl bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]imide alkylating agents. Poly(1,2,3‐triazole)s generated in bulk or by thermal azide–alkyne cycloaddition (AAC) are quaternized in‐situ to afford TPILs composed of 1,3,4‐ and 1,3,5‐trisubstituted 1,2,3‐triazolium units. The physical and ion‐conducting properties of the prepared samples are compared with the TPILs composed solely of 1,3,4‐trisubstituted 1,2,3‐triazolium units obtained through a multistep approach involving copper(I)‐catalyzed AAC polyaddition, quaternization of the 1,2,3‐triazole groups, and anion metathesis. TPILs obtained through the monotopic approach display thermal stabilities and ionic conductivities comparable to their pure regioisomeric analogues.

Synthesis and reactivity ratios of regioisomeric vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles with styrene

The free radical reactivity ratios between styrene and different vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazole regioisomeric monomers in 1,4‐dioxane at 65 °C have been established using nonlinear least square method. The results obtained for the reactivity ratio between regioisomers show exceptionally different polymerization behavior, highlighting the effects of the electronic and steric factors of these regioisomeric monomers. The experimental results highlight the effects of the electronic and sterics on the copolymerization behavior. In case of 1,4‐vinyl‐triazoles, it was found that without the steric effects, the reactivity is very similar to that of styrene and forms random copolymers. However, it was found that 1,5‐vinyl‐triazoles are more reactive than 1,4‐vinyl triazoles. In the case of styrene‐co‐1,4‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles, the reactivity ratios were calculated to be r_styrene: r_{1‐octyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 1.97:0.54, r_styrene : r_{1‐benzyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 1.62:0.50, and r_styrene: r_{1‐methyl‐4‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.90:0.87. On the other hand, reactivity ratios for styrene‐co‐1,5‐vinyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles were found to be r_styrene: r_{1‐octyl‐5‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.13:0.66 and r_styrene: r_{1‐benzyl‐5‐vinyl‐triazole} = 0.34:0.49. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and Cytotoxic Evaluation of Novel 1,2,3‐Triazole‐4‐Linked (2E,6E)‐2‐Benzylidene‐6‐(4‐nitrobenzylidene)cyclohexanones

This work describes the synthesis of novel 1,2,3‐triazole‐4‐linked (2E,6E)‐2‐benzylidene‐6‐(4‐nitrobenzylidene)cyclo‐hexanones starting from cyclohexanone. 1‐(Cyclohex‐1‐en‐1‐yl)piperidine, the enamine from cyclohexanone and piperidine, reacted with 4‐nitrobenzaldehyde to obtain 2‐(4‐nitrobenzylidene)cyclohexanone. Condensation of the latter compound with (prop‐2‐yn‐1‐yloxy)benzaldehyde derivatives under acidic conditions gave (4‐nitrobenzylidene)‐[(prop‐2‐yn‐1‐yloxy)‐benzylidene]cyclohexanones. Finally, ‘click reaction’ of these derivatives and various organic azides led to the title compounds. All compounds were examined by MTT assay for cytotoxic activity in one human breast cancer cell line, MDA‐MB‐231.     

One‐Pot,Three‐Component Synthesis of 1‐(2‐Hydroxyethyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole Derivatives by Copper‐Catalyzed 1,3‐Dipolar Cycloaddition of 2‐Azido Alcohols and Terminal Alkynes under Mild Conditions in Water

A safe, efficient, and improved procedure for the regioselective synthesis of 1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazole derivatives under ambient conditions is described. Terminal alkynes reacted with oxiranes and NaN₃ in the presence of a copper(I) catalyst, which is prepared by in situ reduction of the copper(II) complex 4 with ascorbic acid, in H₂O. The regioselective reactions exclusively gave the corresponding 1,4‐disubstituted 1H‐1,2,3‐triazoles in good to excellent yields. This procedure avoids the handling of organic azides as they are generated in situ, making this already powerful click process even more user‐friendly and safe. The remarkable features of this protocol are high yields, very short reaction times, a cleaner reaction profile in an environmentally benign solvent (H₂O), its straightforwardness, and the use of nontoxic catalysts. Furthermore, the catalyst could be recovered and recycled by simple filtration of the reaction mixture and reused for ten consecutive trials without significant loss of catalytic activity. No metal‐complex leaching was observed after the consecutive catalytic reactions.

Design,Synthesis, and Evaluation of 3‐((4‐(t‐Butyl)‐2‐(2‐benzylidenehydrazinyl)thiazol‐5‐yl)methyl)quinolin‐2(1H)‐ones as Neuraminidase Inhibitors

A series of novel 3‐((4‐(t‐butyl)‐2‐(2‐benzylidenehydrazinyl)thiazol‐5‐yl)methyl)quinolin‐2(1H)‐ones ( 7a – 7z ) were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their ability of inhibiting neuraminidase (NA) of in?uenza H1N1 virus. Some compounds displayed moderate influenza NA inhibitory activity. Compound 7l with the scaffold of 2‐(2‐(2‐methoxybenzylidene)hydrazinyl)thiazole was the best one, exhibiting moderate NA inhibitory activity with IC₅₀ of 44.66 µmol/L. Structure‐activity relationship showed that compounds with methoxy or hydroxy groups at the ortho position, fluorine and nitro groups at the meta position and chlorine and bromine groups at the para position of phenyl ring were more active. Docking study indicated that compound 7l has important interactions with some key residues (including Asp151, Glu119, Arg292, Tyr406, and Asn347) and binds to 430‐cavity adjacent to NA active site.     

Ring Opening of 2‐(Benzylamino)‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐3(4H)‐ones and 2‐Bromo‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐3(4H)‐ones

Substituted 2‐(benzylamino)‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐3(4H)‐ones are unstable under alkaline and acidic conditions, undergoing opening of the benzoxazinone ring. 2‐Bromo‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐3(4H)‐ones show similar degradation under alkaline conditions, while replacement of Br at C(2) to give 2‐hydroxy‐2H‐1,4‐benzoxazin‐3(4H)‐ones was observed only under mild alkaline conditions. Mechanisms of ring opening and degradation to 2‐aminophenol derivatives are proposed.     

Distal γ‐C(sp3)−H Olefination of Ketone Derivatives and Free Carboxylic Acids

Reported herein is the distal γ‐C(sp³)?H olefination of ketone derivatives and free carboxylic acids. Fine tuning of a previously reported imino‐acid directing group and using the ligand combination of a mono‐N‐protected amino acid (MPAA) and an electron‐deficient 2‐pyridone were critical for the γ‐C(sp³)?H olefination of ketone substrates. In addition, MPAAs enabled the γ‐C(sp³)?H olefination of free carboxylic acids to form diverse six‐membered lactones. Besides alkyl carboxylic acids, benzylic C(sp³)?H bonds also could be functionalized to form 3,4‐dihydroisocoumarin structures in a single step from 2‐methyl benzoic acid derivatives. The utility of these protocols was demonstrated in large scale reactions and diversification of the γ‐C(sp³)?H olefinated products.     

Efficient Atropodiastereoselective Access to 5,5′‐Bis‐1,2,3‐triazoles: Studies on 1‐Glucosylated 5‐Halogeno 1,2,3‐Triazoles and Their 5‐Substituted Derivatives as Glycogen Phosphorylase Inhibitors

Whereas copper‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) between acetylated β‐D ‐glucosyl azide and alkyl or phenyl acetylenes led to the corresponding 4‐substituted 1‐glucosyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles in good yields, use of similar conditions but with 2 equiv CuI or CuBr led to the 5‐halogeno analogues (>71 %). In contrast, with 2 equiv CuCl and either propargyl acetate or phenyl acetylene, the major products (>56 %) displayed two 5,5′‐linked triazole rings resulting from homocoupling of the 1‐glucosyl‐4‐substituted 1,2,3‐triazoles. The 4‐phenyl substituted compounds (acetylated, O‐unprotected) and the acetylated 4‐acetoxymethyl derivative existed in solution as a single form (d.r.>95:5), as shown by NMR spectroscopic analysis. The two 4‐phenyl substituted structures were unambiguously identified for the first time by X‐ray diffraction analysis, as atropisomers with aR stereochemistry. This represents one of the first efficient and highly atropodiastereoselective approaches to glucose‐based bis‐triazoles as single atropisomers. The products were purified by standard silica gel chromatography. Through Sonogashira or Suzuki cross‐couplings, the 1‐glucosyl‐5‐halogeno‐1,2,3‐triazoles were efficiently converted into a library of 1,2,3‐triazoles of the 1‐glucosyl‐5‐substituted (alkynyl, aryl) type. Attempts to achieve Heck coupling to methyl acrylate failed, but a stable palladium‐associated triazole was isolated and analyzed by ¹H NMR and MS. O‐Unprotected derivatives were tested as inhibitors of glycogen phosphorylase. The modest inhibition activities measured showed that 4,5‐disubstituted 1‐glucosyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles bind weakly to the enzyme. This suggests that such ligands do not fit the catalytic site or any other binding site of the enzyme.
