Facile enantiodivergent approach to 5-hydroxy-5,6-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridones. First total synthesis of both enantiomers of pipermethystine

[reaction: see text]. A novel enantiodivergent approach to 5-hydroxy-5,6-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridones using a ring closing metathesis and a lipase-mediated kinetic resolution as key steps is described and applied to the first synthesis of both enantiomers of pipermethystine.     

Preparation and reactions of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones

The Michael reaction of ethyl cinnamates with deoxybenzoin gave ethyl 3,4,5-triaryl-5-oxopentanoates which were hydrolysed to the corresponding acids. The latter could be cyclized to the respective 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-ones which underwent ring opening with several nucleophiles to the corresponding acid derivatives. However, their reaction with ammonium acetate led to the formation of 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridones. The 3,4-dihydro-2-pyrones and pyridones were dehydrogenated to the corresponding 2-pyrones and 2-pyridones by fusion with sulfur.     

Prototropie et synthèses nouvelles dans la série des dihydro-5,6 hydroxy-4 pyrones-2 et pyridones-2

The multistep catalytic reduction of 6-methyl-4-hydroxy-2-pyrone allows isolation of two intermediate compounds: the biologically active parasorbic acid ( 5 ) and the 6-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4-hydroxy-2-pyrone ( 2 ). The desmotropic keto-enol equilibrium lies on the enol side, with the 4rhydroxy structure. Primary arylamines readily react with 2 , leading to corresponding 2-pyridones 8 ; with methylamine, the aliphatic intermediate 7 resulting from ring attack at the 2 position can be isolated. Also further functionnalization of both dihydropyrone and 2-pyridone is possible by selective bromination at position 3.

The conformation of t-butyl 2-methoxy-5, 6-dihydro-2 H-pyran-6-carboxylates and 6,6′- disubstituted 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran derivatives on the basis of 1H and 13 C NMR spectra

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of trans- and cis-tert-butyl 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-6-carboxylates (1 and 2) and 6,6′-disubstituted 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans (3-7) have been recorded. HH and CH coupling constants are discussed in terms of the ¹H₆?⁶H₁ conformational equilibrium. It has been found that 1 occurs exclusively in the ¹H₆ conformation, whereas its cis isomer, 2, exists in an equilibrium of both half-chair forms. 6,6′-Disubstituted 2-methoxy-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans 3-6 display spectral and conformational behaviour similar to that of 1, whereas 7 resembles 2 in this respect.     

Cyclisierungsreaktionen zu Pyrano[3,2-c]pyridinen und pyrano[3,2-c]chinolinen unter Verwendung von Ethoxymethylen-malodinitril bzw.-cyanessigester Synthesen mit Nitrilen, 50. Mitt. pyrano[3,2-c]quinolines with ethoxymethylene-malonitrile and-ethyl cyanoacetate,resp.

Reaction of ethoxymethylene-malonitrile and ethoxymethyleneethyl cyanoacetate, resp., with 4-hydroxy-2-pyridones (1a–b) and 4-hydroxy-2-quinolones (3a–b) leads to 2,5-dioxo-5,6-dihydro-2 H-pyrano[3,2-c]pyridine-(2a–d) and 2,5-dioxo-5,6-dihydro-pyrano[3.2-c]quinoline-derivatives (4a–d), resp.2a–d and4a–d exhibit remarkable visible fluorescence. Absorption- and emmission-data in different solvents are reported.     

Microwave-assisted copper-catalyzed stereoselective ring expansion of three-membered heterocycles with α-diazo-β-dicarbonyl compounds

Microwave-assisted copper-catalyzed ring expansions of three-membered heterocycles with α-diazo-β-dicarbonyl compounds were investigated. Thiiranes generated 3-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-oxathiines in the presence of copper sulfate and trans-3-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-oxathiines as stereospecific products for 1,2-disubstituted cis-thiiranes through an intramolecular S_N2 process. Oxiranes gave rise to 2-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-dioxines under the catalysis of copper hexafluoroacetylacetonate and cis-3-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-dioxines as stereospecific products for 1,2-disubstituted cis-oxiranes via an intimate ion-pair mechanism. The current method provides a direct and simple strategy in efficient preparation of 3-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-oxathiines and 2-acyl-5,6-dihydro-1,4-dioxines, important agents in medicinal and agricultural chemistry, from readily available thiiranes and oxiranes, respectively.     

Copper and palladium complexes with substituted pyrimidine-2-thiones and 2-thiouracils: syntheses,spectral characterization,and X-ray crystallographic study

Copper(I) and palladium(II) complexes containing 5-acetyl-6-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2-thione (L¹), ethyl 4,6-dimethyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carboxylate (L²), cis-5-acetyl-6-ethyl-5,6-dihydro-2-thiouracil (L³), and 5,6-dihydro-2-thiouracil (L⁴) have been synthesized. All complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. To assign bands in the IR spectra of L¹ and L² and complexes with Cu(I) and Pd(II), deuterium substitution of movable protons at N-atoms was used. The crystal structures of two compounds, [Cu(L²)₂Cl] and [Pd(L⁴)₂Cl₂], were determined by X-ray single-crystal and powder diffraction, respectively. In [Cu(L²)₂Cl], copper has a rare coordination number of three and triangular surrounding of two neutral L² molecules, coordinated through sulfurs, and chloride. In [Pd(L⁴)₂Cl₂], palladium has a standard square-planar geometry, formed by two uracil molecules and two chlorides. A new method for the synthesis of 5,6-dihydro-2-thiouracil, starting from β-aminopropionic acid, was suggested.     

Synthesis and characterization of [2-(2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinyl)] tellurenyl chloride

The synthesis and characterization of the first examples of two tellurium compounds based on 2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine substrate are described. Intramolecular Te?N interaction in [2-(2-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinyl)] tellurenyl chloride is established by single X-ray crystallography.     

Facile one-pot synthesis of N-difluoromethyl-2-pyridone derivatives

[reaction: see text] A novel one-pot synthesis of N-difluoromethyl-2-pyridones is described. N-(Pyridin-2-yl)acetamide derivatives were excellent precursors for the preparation of N-difluoromethyl-2-pyridone derivatives. Difluoromethylation of 2-acetaminopyridine derivatives was achieved with sodium chlorodifluoroacetate as a difluorocarbene source in the presence of a catalytic amount of 18-crown-6. Subsequent in situ hydrolysis of resultant 1,2-dihydro-2-acetimino-1-difluoromethylpyridines proceeded under mild acidic conditions to afford the corresponding N-difluoromethyl-2-pyridones in moderate to good yields.     

Synthesis and Structure of Quaternary Salts Derived from 2-Anilino- and 2-Benzylamino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine

Substituted phenacyl bromides react with 2-anilino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine at the exocyclic nitrogen atom and with 2-benzylamino-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine at the nitrogen atom in the ring. The structure of the reaction intermediates was elucidated, and their cyclization into 1-benzyl-2-aryl-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-b][1,3]thiazinium bromides was performed.     

On the lewis acid catalyzed cyclocondensation of imines with a siloxydiene

A hetero Diels-Alder route to 5,6-dihydro-γ-pyridones is described. Recently, we described the Lewis Acid catalyzed cyclocondensation of aldehydes with siloxydienes to give 5,6-dihydro-γ-pyrones. It was of interest to attempt to extend this reaction to include the imino linkage. Certainly, there have been reports of intermolecular 2 + 4 cycloadditions to “C = N” dienophiles.² However, they have involved particularly activated glyoxyl imines (cf.$\text{1}$,³ acyl imines (via presumed precursor $\text{2}$)⁴ or doubly activated imines (cf.$\text{3}$).⁵ In addition, we note that Weinreb has elegantly exploited intramolecular Diels-Alder reactions of acyl imines⁶ as a new strategem in alkaloid synthesis.     

Heterocycles. Part V. Reaction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds with arylacetamides. A synthesis of 2-pyridone derivatives

The reaction of 1,3-diaryl-2-propene-1-ones I with arylacetamides II, in the presence of sodium ethoxide under reflux, for two hours, gave the corresponding 3,4,6-triaryl-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridones IV. However, when the reaction of these ketones was carried out in the presence of sodium hydride, they gave the corresponding 3,4,6-triaryl-2(1H)-pyridones VI or a mixture of IV and VI. When 1,3-diaryl-2-propyne-1-ones V were reacted with arylacetamides, in the presence of sodium hydride, they yielded the corresponding 2-pyridones VI. Treatment of compounds IV with selenium produced the corresponding 2-pyridones VI. Acetylation of the latter compounds gave the corresponding 2-acetyl derivatives VIII. The structure of all products was confirmed by chemical and spectroscopic evidence, and the mechanism of the reactions was discussed.     

Polymerizaton of Salts of 2-Alkenyl-2-Oxazolines and Their Homologs

The present paper describes a new type of polymerization of 2-vinyl-2-oxazoline and 2-vinyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine and their salts. When these two imino ether monomers are allowed to react with Meerwein reagents or super acid esters, N-alkylation takes place first, followed by polymerization through the opening of vinyl groups to give poly [(2-oxazolinium-2-yl)ethylene] and poly [(5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazinium-2-yl)ethylene], respectively. With the corresponding 2-isopropenyl homologs, 2-isopropenyl-2-oxazoline and 2-isopropenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazine, stable N-alkylated salts are obtained, which were subjected to radical and base-catalyzed polymerizations. From the above results the reactivities of the salts are considered in terms of their ring size and the substituents on the olefinic functions.     

Addition of indolyl and pyrrolyl grignard reagents to 1-acylpyridinium salts

Certain indolyl and pyrrolyl Grignard reagents add to 1-acyl salts of 4-methoxy-3-(triisopropylsilyl)pyridine to give the corresponding 1-acyl-2-heteroaryl-2,3-dihydro-4-pyridones in good to high yield. When the 1-acyl group contained a chiral auxiliary, (+/-)-trans-2-(alpha-cumyl)cyclohexyloxy, addition of the indolyl Grignards resulted in a separable mixture of diastereomeric 2,3-dihydro-4-pyridones.     

Ring transformations of 4H-pyrans. Pyridines from 2-amino-4H-pyrans

Ring transformations of 4H-pyrans into pyridines are reported. Treatment of 2-amino-4,6-diaryl-3,5-dicyano-4H-pyrans (I) with nitrosylsulfuric acid brings about their transformation into 3,5-dicyano-4,6-diaryl-2-pyridones (VI) which can also be obtained from α-benzoylcinnamonitriles (IX) and cyanoacetamide. Similarly, 2-amino-4,6-diaryl-5-carbethoxy-3-cyano-4H-pyrans (II) lead to 4,6-diaryl-5-carbethoxy-3-cyano-2-pyridones (VII). Treatment of both series of pyrans with sulfuric acid results in the formation of the corresponding 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridones (IV and V). Reaction of pyrans II with ammonium acetate in acetic acid yields 2-amino-4,6-diaryl-5-carbethoxy-3-cyanopyridines (XII). Pyrans I undergo an entirely different type of reaction upon treatment with this reagent leading to 2,4,6-triaryl-3,5-dicyano-1,4-dihydropyridines (XV).     

Synthesis of 4-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-1,2,4-thiadiazin-3-one 1,1-dioxide and x-ray diffraction analysis of its 2′,3-anhydro precursor

Reaction of 2-amino-3′,5′-bis(O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-β- D -arabinofuran[1′,2′:4,5]-2-oxazoline with 2-chloroethylsulfonyl chloride in the presence of sodium bicarbonate followed by removal of the protecting groups gave 2′,3-anhydro-4-β- D -arabinofuranosyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-1,2,4-thiadiazin-3-one 1,1-dioxide ( 5 ), which by treatment with ammonia was converted to 4-β- D -arabinofuranosyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-1,2,4-thiadiazin-3-one 1,1-dioxide ( 6 ). The structure of compound 5 was unequivocally established by means of an x-ray diffraction analysis. The compound crystallized in the space group P2₁2₁2₁ with unit cell dimensions a = 5.883(3), b = 9.352(2), c = 18.769(7) Å, Z = 4. Its structure was established by direct multisolution techniques and refined by the full matrix least squares method to a final R value of 0.058 for the 1515 reflections observed.     

Reaction of 2-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran with dichlorocarbene

Upon treatment of 2-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran with dichlorocarbene there are formed products of addition to the double bond and insertion at the C-H bond giving cis- and trans-7,7-dichloro-2-methyl-3-oxabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane and 2-dichloromethyl-2-methyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 190–191, February, 1986.     

Electrospray ionisation and ion-trap fragmentation of substituted 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridin-2-ones

A variety of 5-alkoxycarbonyl-4-aryl-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyridones and hexahydrofuro[3,4-b]-2(1H)-pyridones have been investigated by electron impact (EI) and electrospray ionisation (ESI) techniques. Sequential product ion fragmentation (MS(n)) was performed to elucidate the degradation pathways for these compounds. Comparisons are made between positive and negative even-electron ions from ESI spectra and the molecular radical cations obtained under EI conditions. The data collected in this paper provide information on the strong impact that different substituents have on the ion fragmentation process.
