Crowned Macrocycles Containing Two Pyrrolo[1,2-a] Indoles Created By Intramolecular Fusion

Heterocyclic fused-ring systems are of utmost importance because of their presence in many natural products with biological activity. Pyrroloindoles are tricyclic heterocycles that are present in various bioactive and medicinally valuable compounds. Herein, we report the synthesis of phenylene-bridged bis-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole crowned macrocycles 1 – 3 in which the pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole moieties were formed via intramolecular fusion. The macrocycles were thoroughly characterized by 1D and 2D NMR, HRMS and X-ray crystallographic studies. The X-ray structure revealed that the two pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole moieties were parallel to each other, and one pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole unit was deviated by an angle of 9.54° while the other pyrrolo[1,2-a]indole unit was deviated by an angle of 12.0° from the mean plane defined by 28 core atoms. The macrocycles 1 – 3 absorb in the visible region and readily undergo oxidations because of their electron rich nature. The macrocycles 1 – 3 upon treatment with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) generates the corresponding cation radicals 1 – 3 ^.+ which were stable in the open air for a week. The cation radicals 1 – 3 ^.+ absorb strongly in the NIR region and the experimental observations on crowned macrocycles 1 – 3 were corroborated by DFT and TD-DFT studies.     

Synthesis,Photochromism, and Effects of Metal Ions on Fluorescence of Dithienylethenes Containing Imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinoline

Dithienylethene derivatives containing imidazo[2,1-a]isoquinolines were directly synthesized by treatment of the diketone with 2-ethynylbenzaldehyde in one pot. Their photochromism indicated that they can easily isomerize between the ring-open and ring-closed isomers upon irradiation with ultraviolet or visible light in CH₂Cl₂. At the same time, they display high selectivity toward Fe³⁺ by the fluorescence titration, such that the addition of Fe³⁺ can obviously suppress their fluorescence intensity.

Photocatalytic Oxidative [3+2] Cycloaddition for Pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinoline Synthesis Using a Porphyrin-Based Covalent Organic Framework

By using a catalytic amount of a porphyrin-based covalent organic framework (Por-Ad-COF) as the efficient recyclable photocatalyst, the photocatalytic oxidative [3+2] cycloaddition reaction between tetrahydroisoquinolines and N-substituted maleimides was developed under aerobic conditions at room temperature. Various substituted pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines were obtained in moderate to good yields via the dipolar [3+2] cycloaddition and oxidative aromatization cascade process under visible light irradiation. This was the first example to employ the covalent organic framework as the heterogeneous photocatalyst to perform the photocatalytic dipolar [3+2] cycloaddition reaction for the synthesis of pyrrolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines.

The in vitro antioxidant activity revealed that among all the tested compounds 5n exhibited maximum scavenging activity with ABTS. Compound 5b has showed good antiproliferative activity as an inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase.

Heterocyclensynthesen mit 5-Phenyl-isoxazoliumsalzen, 3. Mitt.: Synthese von Pyrrolo[1,2-a]chinazolin-5-onen

Refluxing of ethanol-acetic acid solutions of N-aroyl-N-methyl-benzoylacetamides3 causes elimination of acetophenone and generation of N(1)-substituted N(3)-methyl-1H,3H-quinazoline-2,4-diones5. In contrast, at room temperature in acetanhydride3 eliminate water yielding 2-benzoylmethylene-quinazolinones4, which at 60 °C cyclize to pyrrolo[1,2-a] quinazolin-5-ones6. The transformation4 6 may be explained in terms of a normalKnorr reaction. A anomalousKnorr reaction was observed in the case of the more rigid4 d leading to a mixture of diasteromere7 d cis and7 d trans in kinetically controlled reaction. Favoured by intramolecular hydrogen bonding7 d cis converts to the thermodynamically more stable6 d by warming of the ethanolic solution for 3 hours.
