Reactions of Bisazomethines of the Naphtalene Series with 1,3-Diketones

Bisazomethines prepared from aromatic dialdehydes and 2-naphthylamine were for the first time reacted with the following diketones: 1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5-phenyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, indandione, and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione was studied. The reactions with 1,3-diketones of the cyclohexane series yield benzophenanthridine derivatives. The reactions with indandione, depending on conditions, give either bisarylideneindandiones or bisdihydrobenzo[f]indenoquinoline. As evidenced by the ^13C NMR and IR spectra, in the case of biphenyl-4,4'-dicarbaldehyde bis[N-(2-naphthyl)imine] and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, 4,4'-bis(3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[f]quinolin-1-yl)biphenyl is formed.     

1-(2-Quinoxalyl)-, 1-[3,5-Di(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-, 1-(2-Carboxyphenyl)-, and 1-Ethoxycarbonyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles

The corresponding 1-(2-quinoxalyl)-, 1-[3,5-di(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-, and 1-ethoxycarbonyl-3-methyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles have been obtained from reactions of 2-acetyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, its 5,5-dimethyl and 5-(2-furyl) derivatives, with 2-hydrazinoquinoxaline, 3,5-di(trifluoromethyl)phenylhydrazine, and ethoxycarbonylhydrazine. On interaction with ethoxycarbonylhydrazine the intermediate 2-[1-(-ethoxycarbonyl)hydrazino]ethylidene-1,3-cyclohexanediones were also isolated. From the potassium salt of 2-formyldimedone and 2-carboxyphenylhydrazine hydrochloride, 2-(2-carboxyphenyl)hydrazinomethylene-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione was obtained, the cyclization of which in ethanol in the presence of HCl led to 1-(2-carboxyphenyl)- and 1-(2-ethoxycarbonylphenyl)-6,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole.

1-(1-Phthalazinyl)- and 1-(4methoxyphenyl)-6,6dimethyl-4oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole

2-(1-Phthalazinylhydrazino)methylene-(IIIa) or 2-(1-phthalazinylhydrazino)ethylidene-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanediones (IIIb) were prepared from 1-hydrazinophthalazine and 2 formyl- or 2-acetyldimedone. Cyclization of IIIb in the presence ofp- TsOH gave 1-(1-phthalazinyl)3, 6, 6-trimethyl-4-oxo-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydroindazole. Reaction of 4-methoxyphenylhydrazine with 2 formyl- and 2-acetyidimedone gave the corresponding 1-(4methoxyphenyl)-4-oxo-4, 5, 6, 7-tetrahydroindazole. In the case of 2 -formyldimedone the intermediate 2-(4methoxyphenylhydrazinomethylene)-5, 5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione was isolated.Riga Technological University, Riga LV-1658.

2-(1-Isonicotinoylhydrazinoalkylidene)-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanediones and their polychromism. A new type of compound with intramolecular charge transfer through the hydrazonocarbonyl bridge

The product of condensation of 2-formyldimedone with the hydrazide of isonicotinic acid, namely 2-isonicotinoylhydrazinomethylene-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, has been obtained in three forms — red, colorless, and yellow — which with methyl iodide give one and the same iodide 2-[N-(1-methyl-4-pyridiniumcarbonyl)hydrazinomethylene]-5, 5-dimethyl-1, 3-cyclohexanedione. On the basis of UV spectra and x-ray structure analysis of this betaine and also the dark-red iodide of N-(4-diethylaminobenzal)-N-(1-methyl-4-pyridiniumcarbonyl)hydrazine, it has been shown that intramolecular charge transfer in these linear molecules proceeds along the system of bonds D:-RC=N-NH-CO-A through the hydrazonocarbonyl bridge, which does not interrupt the conjugation chain. The existence of colored forms of the 2-isonicotinoylhydrazinomethylene-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione can be explained by an admixture of the betaine form.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 489–498, April, 1993.

Mechanistic studies in the attempted synthesis of 5,5-dimethyl-2-isopropylidene-1,3-cyclohexanedione

In contrast to the corresponding cyclopentanedione derivative, 5,5-dimethyl-2-isopropyl-2-phenylsulfinyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione (3) does not undergo the expected cis-elimination of phenylsulfenic acid on warming in CH₂Cl₂ to afford the title compound 1, but instead gives an equimolar mixture of 5,5-dimethyl-2-(1 ′-isopropyl-4′,4′-dimethyl-2′,6′-dioxocyclohexyl)-2-isopropyl-1, 3-cyclohexanedione (9) and S-phenyl benzenethiosulfonate (10). These products result from dimerization of the 4,4-dimethyl-1-isopropyl-2,6-dioxocyclohexylradical (7) andthephenylsulfinyl radical (8), respectively.
