Investigation of supramolecular inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin of 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-hydroxypiperidine and 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-benzoyloxypiperidine oxalate by NMR spectroscopy

A comparative analysis of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-hydroxypiperidine, 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-benzoyloxypiperidine oxalate and their inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin was performed. The differences in values of chemical shifts of ¹H and ¹³C nuclei of the substrates and the receptor in the inclusion complexes were determined. It was found that the formation of complexes of 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-hydroxypiperidine and 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-4-(pentyn-1-yl)-4-benzoyloxypiperidine oxalate with β-cyclodextrin was accompanied by insertion of one N-ethoxyethyl fragment of the substrate molecule into the inner sphere of one molecule of the receptor.     

Formation of Unsymmetrical 2-(Diacylmethylene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazoles During Acidolysis of 1-Benzoyl-2-(β-benzoyloxy-β-phenylvinyl)-1H-benzimidazole

The reaction of 1-benzoyl-2-(-benzoyloxy--phenylvinyl)-1H-benzimidazole with carboxylic acids was investigated. A convenient method was developed for the synthesis of unsymmetrical 2-(diacylmethylene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazoles. 2-(4-Pyrazolyl)-1H-benzimidazoles were obtained by the reaction of 2-(benzoylformylmethylene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazole with hydrazine.

(1-1)-Linked C-Disaccharides – Synthesis of Bis(β-D-Galactopyranosyl)Methane

ABSTRACT

Bis[C-(galactal-1-yl)]carbinol derivative 2, which is readily obtained by transformation of galactal into a vinyl carbanion and then reaction with a C₁-electrophile, was transformed into the title compound (1b). The procedure required first temporary protection of the carbinol hydroxy group and subsequent transformation of the galactal moiety into the galactopyranosyl moiety. Then deoxygenation of the carbinol and final deprotection could be carried out.

Propyl O-(α-L-rhamncpyranosyl)-(1→3)-[2,4-di-O-(2s-methylbutyryl)-α-L-rham-nopyranosyl]-(1→2)-(3-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-(1→2)-β-D-fucopyranoside (1), the tetrasac-charide moiety of Tricolorin A, was synthesized in total 23 steps with a longest linear sequence of 10 steps, and overall yield of 3.7% from D-Glucose. The isomerization of the dioxolane-type berzyli-dene in the presence of NIS/AgOTf was observed. Tetrasaccharide 1 exhibited no activity against the cultured P388 cell as Tricolorin A did.

Supramolecular inclusion complexes of β-cyclodextrin with 4-(acyloxy)-4-(cyclopropylethynyl)-1-(2-ethoxyethyl)piperidines

4-Acyloxy-4-(cyclopropylethynyl)-1-(2-ethoxyethyl)piperidines have been synthesized by reaction of 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)piperidin-4-one with cyclopropylacetylene and subsequent acylation of intermediate 4-(cyclopropylethynyl)piperidin-4-ol. The resulting esters react with β-cyclodextrin to give supramolecular inclusion complexes. The complexation is accompanied by inclusion of the N-ethoxyethyl fragment of one substrate molecule in the inner cavity of one receptor molecule. The structure of 4-acyloxy-4-(cyclopropylethynyl-1-(2-ethoxyethyl)piperidines and their inclusion complexes with cyclodextrin has been studied by NMR spectroscopy.

Intramolecular Cyclization of 1-(ω-Phenylalkyl)-2-(nitromethylene)pyrrolidines in Triflic Acid

1-(ω-Phenylalkyl)-2-(nitromethylene)pyrrolidines in triflic acid undergo a C,O-diprotonation, followed by loss of water, to form conjugated iminium–hydroxynitrilium dications, which react with the tethered phenyl ring by electrophilic aromatic substitution to afford tricyclic iminium compounds as triflate salts. The scope and mechanism of this reaction are discussed.

Structure of the 1 : 1 Complex of Hexakis(2,3,6-tri- O-methyl) α-Cyclodextrin with ( R)-(-)-1,7-Dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane

The crystal structure of the 1 : 1 inclusion complex of hexakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)- -cyclodextrin (TM CD) with 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane (spiroacetal) is orthorhombic, space group C2221, with a = 24.002(2), b = 14.812(1), c = 21.792(2) Å V = 7747.3(11) Å3 and Z = 8. The molecular six-fold axis of TM CD coincides with the a two-fold crystallographic axis and the guest is located at the secondary methoxy group side, disordered over two positions related by that axis. The guest model used during the refinement is that of the (R)-enantiomer alone because trials to either refine a 1 : 1 mixture of (R)- and (S)-enantiomers or the (S)-enantiomer alone failed. The crystallographic evidence of enantioselectivity towards the (R)-enantiomer of spiroacetal was confirmed by independent experiments and may be attributed to numerous non bonding interactions between host and guest involving non conventional H-bonds.     

Synthesis of cis-(±)-2-Hydroxymethyl-5-(Cytosine-1'-yl)-1,3-Oxathiolane (BCH-189)

cis-BCH-189 are potent anti-HIV agents and have been synthesized from mannose1 galactose2 or glucose3 etc. Owing to so many synthetic steps, it is difficult and expensive to obtain a few grams. In this paper, we have designed new route and promoted the reaction conditions for the synthesis of this nucleoside cis- (+)- BCH-189 from cheap starting material via a four step route as shown in Scheme 1. By this method, a series of derivatives of title compound can be synthesized conviniently for…     

Structural and bonding investigation of an unbridged donor-acceptor complex 1-(2,2′-bipyrimidine)-1-(t-butyl)-2, 3-bis(trimethylsilyl) -2,3-dicarba-1-galla-closo-heptaborane(6)

The reaction between thecloso-gallacarborane, 1-(t-C₄H₉)-1-Ga-2,3-(SiMe₃)₂-2,3-C₂B₄H₄ (1), and 2,2-bipyrimidine in a molar ratio of 11 in dry benzene produced the unbridged donor-acceptor complex 1-(2,2-C₈H₆N₄)-1-(t-C₄H₉)-1-Ga-2,3-(SiMe₃)₂-2, 3-C₂B₄H₄ (2) as a pale-yellow crystalline solid in 81% yield. The spectroscopic data of2 are almost identical to those of the bridged species 1,1-(2,2-C₈ H₆N₄)-[1-(t-C₄H₉)-1-Ga-2,3-(SiMe₃)₂-2,3-C₂ B₄H₄]₂ (3). However, the single-crystal X-ray structure of2 reveals that the complex consists of only one distorted gallacarborane unit and a bipyrimidine molecule, that acts as a bidentate ligand. The apical gallium in2 is displaced further away from the centroidal position above the carborane than it is in 1. Despite the steric hindrance imposed by the bulky trimethylsilyl groups on the cage carbons, the Ga-C_(t-buty) bond is tilted toward the cage carbon atoms. Complex2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP2₁ witha=11.279 (3),b=10.060 (3),c=11.911 (3) Å,=94.94 (2)°,V=1346.5 (6) ų,Z=2,D _x=1.24g cm^–3, (MoK) F(000)= 528, andT=220 K. Full-matrix least-squares refinement for2 converged at R=0.036 andRw= 0.045 for 3032 observed reflections. Molecular orbital calculations showed that antibonding interactions between the gallium and carborane cage carbons, induced by base complexation, are a contributing factor to the gallium's slip distortion that is found in2.     

Stereochemistry of the asymmetric reduction of (1′s)-1,3-dimethyl-4(1′-phenylethylimino)piperidine

The stereochemistry of the asymmetric reduction of the imine obtained from 1,3-dimethylpiperidin-4-one and (S)--phenylethylamine has been studied. It is shown that hydride reduction of imine 1 by sodium borohydride in methanol is asymmetric and gives the cis and trans diastereomeric pair 1,3-dimethyl-4-(-phenyl-ethylamino) piperidine in the ratio 3:1. Using sodium in isopropanol gives only one trans diastereomeric pair.¹H NMR has been used to identify the stereochemical structure and diastereomer excess of the cis and trans isomers of 1,3-dimethyl-4-(-phenylethylamino)piperidine which had been separated by column chromatography.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 219–221, February, 1996.
