New Heterocyclic Phosphorus Ylides: Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Theoretical Calculation of Alkyl Substituted 3-(4-Benzoyl-1,5-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-3-oxo-2-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) Propanoates

Novel alkyl substituted 3-(4-benzoyl-1,5-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-3-oxo-2-(triphenylphosphoranylidene) propanoates (3) were synthesized from 4-benzoyl-1,5-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carbonylchloride (1) and alkyl (triphenylphosphoranylidene) acetates (2a–b). The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic studies (3a–b), and single crystal X-ray diffraction (3a). The mechanism of the reaction between (1) and (2a) was studied by AM1, and the geometrical parameters of the studied molecules were also carried out in B3LYP methods with the standard 6–31G (d,p) basis set. NBO analysis were studied for 1 and 2a B3LYP methods with the standard 6–31G (d,p) basis set.     

Reaction of 1-arylmethylidenepyrazolidin-1-azomethine imines with aryl ketenes

A reaction of aryl ketenes with 1-arylmethylidenepyrazolidin-1-azomethine imines, generated by the diaziridine ring opening in 6-aryl-1,5-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes catalyzed with Et2O·BF3, leads to 1,2-bis(phenylacetyl)pyrazolidine, 2-arylacetyl-1-arylidenepyrazolidin-1-ium chlorides, or a representative of 1,5-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-2-ones, viz., 4-(4-eth-oxyphenyl)-3,3-diphenyl-1,5-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-2-one, depending on the reaction conditions and the structure of the starting compounds. A mechanism suggested earlier for the transformation of 1,5-diazabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes in the reaction with ketenes was confirmed.     

4-Functionally Substituted 3-Heterylpyrazoles: IV. 1-Phenyl-3-aryl(heteryl)-5-(4-pyrazolyl)-2-pyrazolines

3-Aryl(heteryl)-4-formylpyrazoles in condensation with methyl aryl(heteryl) ketones afforded 1-aryl(heteryl)-3-[3-aryl(heteryl)-4-pyrazolyl]propenones. The latter reacted with phenylhydrazine yielding 1-phenyl-3-aryl(heteryl)-5-(4-pyrazolyl)-2-pyrazolines.     

An extremely facile aza-Bergman rearrangement of sterically unencumbered acyclic 3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diynes

The factors that affect the kinetics of the aza-Bergman cyclization of aza-enediynes (C,N-dialkynyl imines) have not previously been elucidated. Here we report our kinetic studies of the aza-Bergman reactions of a series of 6-triisopropylsilyl and 6-unsubstituted 1-phenyl-4-aryl-3-aza-3-ene-1,4-diynes in which the aryl group is phenyl, o-(methoxy)phenyl, or p-(methoxy)phenyl. These aza-enediynes are prepared as single isomers in modest yield from the corresponding 1-aryl-3-(triisopropylsilyl)propynone oximes. These aza-enediynes undergo aza-Bergman reaction followed by a rapid retro-aza-Bergman cyclization to afford beta-alkynyl acrylonitrile products. In no case are products corresponding to trapping the intermediate 2,5-didehydropyridine diradical isolated. While the rate of aza-Bergman cyclization is not greatly affected by the nature of the 4-aryl substituent, the rate is very dependent on the nature of the 6-substituent. 1-Phenyl-4-aryl-3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diynes that lack a 6-substituent undergo aza-Bergman cyclization spontaneously at 20 degrees C with first-order half-lives of 36-78 min. The effect of solvent on the kinetics of aza-Bergman cyclization of 1,4-diphenyl-3-aza-3-ene-1,5-diyne was investigated. The rate of this cyclization is solvent dependent, proceeding more rapidly in less polar solvents.     

The structure of the diazonium coupling products of phenacyl thiocyanate and phenacyl selenocyanate with diazotized 3-phenyl-5-aminopyrazole

The reaction of diazotized 3-phenyl-5-aminopyrazole with phenacyl thiocyanate 1a and phenacyl selenocyanate 1b afforded directly 2-imino-3-(3-phenyl-5-pyrazolyl)-5-benzoyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-thiadiazole monohydrate 9a and 2-imino-3-(3-phenyl-5-pyrazolyl)-5-benzoyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-selenadiazole monohydrate 9b , respectively. The products 9a and 9b were also obtained from the reaction of C-benzoyl-N-(3-phenyl-5-pyrazolyl)formohydrazidoyl bromide 10 with potassium thiocyanate and potassium selenocyanate, respectively. Acetylation, benzoylation, and nitrosation of 9 afforded the corresponding diacetyl, dibenzoyl, and nitroso derivatives 11-13 , respectively. Cyclization of C-benzoyl-N-(3-phenyl-5-pyrazolyl)-nitrilimine 6 was shown to give the pyrazolo [5,1-d]triazole 8 and not the pyrazolo[5,1-c]-as-triazine derivative 7 , as previously reported.     

Neue Synthesen von Pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazinen

Two new syntheses of pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines are reported: (a) Addition of acetyl isocyanate to 5-amino-3-methyl-pyrazole followed by hydrolysis yields N-(3-methyl-5-pyrazolyl)-urea ( 15 ), which on cyclisation with triethyl orthoacetate gives 2-hydroxy-4,7-dimethylpyrazolo[1, 5-a]-s-triazine ( 16 ). (b) Condensation of aminoguanidine with β-oxo-nitriles affords 1-amidino-5-aminopyrazoles 18 . These are cyclised to pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines 19--21 by reaction with orthoesters, acetic-formic anhydride, phenylisocyanide dichloride, dimethyl oxalate, N, N′-carbonyldiimidazole, and N, N′-thiocarbonyldiimidazole. The 4-amino group in 19 is converted by standard procedures to OH, SH, SCH₃, Cl and NRR′. Reaction of pyrazolo[1,5-a]-s-triazines 30 with electrophiles leads to compounds substituted at position 8, e.g. 32a--e .     

4-Functionally Substituted 3-Heterylpyrazoles: IV. Benzylamino[3-aryl(heteryl)-4-pyrazolyl]methylphosphonic Acids

Derivatives of N-benzyl[3-aryl(heteryl)-4-pyrazolyl]methanimines react with diethyl phosphite to afford diethyl benzylamino[3-aryl(heteryl)-4-pyrazolyl]-4-methylphosphonates that on hydrolysis with 18% hydrochloric acid yield the corresponding aminophosphonic acids.     

Transformations of stereoisomeric 2-chloro-3-R-pentane-1,5-diones in reaction with phenylhydrazine

Monophenylhydrazones were prepared from three monochloro derivatives of arylaliphatic 1,5-diketones, and some their transformations were investigated. The monophenylhydrazones formed regiospecifically, and the direction of the reaction was governed by the substituent attached to C³ atom in the initial chlorodiketones. Formerly unknown products of transformations suffered by monophenylhydrazones obtained were described: 2-amino-1,3-diphenyl-3-(2-phenylindolyl-3)-propan-1-one, 3-benzoyl-2,4,6-triphenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridazine, and 3-methyl-1,5-diphenyl-5-phenylazopent-4-en-1-one.     

Reactions of dialkyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxohexane-1,6-dioates,-heptane-1,7-dioates with zinc and aromatic aldehydes

Zinc enolates generated from dimethyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxohexane-1,6-dioate and zinc reacted with aromatic aldehydes giving methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-3-(5-oxo-2-aryltetrahydrofuran-3-yl)propanoates. The reaction of zinc enolates obtained from dimethyl 4-bromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxoheptane-1,7-dioate and zinc with aromatic aldehydes depending on the synthesis conditions led to the formation either methyl 2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-3-(6-oxo-2-aryltetrahydropyran-3-yl)propanoates or 3-(5,5-dimethyl-4,6-dioxo-2-aryltetrahydropyran-3-yl)propanoates. The compounds synthesized formed as a single diastereomer of E-configuration.     

Synthesis of 2,5,7‐Triaryl‐4,7(6,7)‐dihydropyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine‐3‐carbonitriles by Reaction of 5(3)‐Amino‐3(5)‐aryl‐1H‐pyrazole‐4‐carbonitriles with Chalcones

The reaction of 5(3)‐amino‐3(5)‐aryl‐1H‐pyrazole‐4‐carbonitriles with 1,3‐diaryl‐2‐propen‐1‐ones (chalcones) in refluxing DMF leads to 2,5,7‐triaryl‐4,7(6,7)‐dihydropyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine‐3‐carbonitriles. In DMSO solution, the latter exist in equilibrium of two tautomeric 4,7‐dihydropyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines and 6,7‐dihydropyrazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidines in various ratios, depending on the nature of aryl substituents in chalcone building blocks.     

Synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted 1-amino-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triones (or 1-aminocyanurates) by cyclic transformation of 1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives

The 5-aryl(or methyl)-3-phenylcarbamoyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones 2 , in the presence of sodium hydride in anhydrous dimethylformamide, were transformed into 1-benzamido(or acetamido)-3,5-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione derivatives 7 in poor yields. However, compounds 7 were obtained in better yields when the sodium salts of 5-aryl(or methyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones 1 were treated with two equivalents of aryl(or ethyl)isocyanates. Acidic hydrolysis of 1-acetamido-3,5-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione ( 7i ) provided the corresponding free N-amino derivative 9 . Nitrous deamination of 9 gave the known 3,5-diphenyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione ( 11 ). This cyclic transformation is the first one to be reported providing 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-trione derivatives.     

Electron impact mass spectral fragmentation of 3a,5-disubstituted 1, 3-diphenyl-3a,4,5,6-tetra-hydro-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a][1, 5]benzo-diazepines

The mass spectrometric behaviour of six 3a,5-disubstituted 1, 3-diphenyl-3a,4,5,6-tetrahydro-3H-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a][1, 5]benzodiazepines has been studied with the aid of mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy spectrometry and accurate mass measurements under electron impact ionization. All compounds show a tendency to eliminate (substituted) styrene molecules, aryl radicals, arylmethyl radicals or phenylnitrene (PhN:). All of the resulting fragment ions, except [M - PhN:](+.), could further undergo a reverse [2 + 3] cycloaddition. The [M - PhN:](+.) ions could further lose styrene derivatives and undergo a ring enlargement rearrangement. The molecular ions also show a tendency to eliminate a phenyl radical, and the [M - Ph](+) ions could eliminate styrene derivatives. The [M - R(1)CH = CH(2)](+.) ions could further lose NH(2) to yield stable tetracyclic 1,3-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-d]phenanthridine ions, which could further lose benzonitrile, or undergo a reverse [2 + 3] cycloaddition. The molecular ions could also undergo a reverse [2 + 3] cycloaddition to produce N-phenylbenzonitrile imine ions and 2, 4-disubstituted 2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepine ions, whose further fragmentations were also investigated.     

Unusual michael reaction of 3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one with 3-amino-N-phenyl-3-thioxopropanamide

3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one reacted with 3-amino-N-phenyl-3-thioxopropanamide under basic conditions in ethanol to give a mixture of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-cyano-5-oxo-N,5-diphenylpentanamide and 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,5-diphenylpentane-1,5-dione. The structure of the former was determined by X-ray analysis. The reaction of the same compounds in DMSO in the presence of sodium hydroxide produced 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-N,6-diphenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine-3-carboxamide.     

Conformational and configurational studies on 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (3-abn) derivatives and related systems employing carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy

The ¹³C nmr spectra of 4 cis-2,4-diphenyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes, 11 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-9-ones, 26 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]-nonan-9-ols or acetates thereof, 5 cis-2,4-diaryl-3-azabi-cyclo[4.3.1]decan-10-ones or -10-ols and 5 cis-2,4-diphenyl-3-aza-7-thiabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones, -9-ols or 9-yl acetates have been recorded. Except for the 7-thia compounds, which appear to exist mainly in the configuration and conformation with the nitrogen-containing ring in the boat form, these compounds seem to exist overwhelmingly in chair-chair conformations. The configuration of the 9-ols and their acetates (syn or anti to the nitrogen-containing ring) has been deduced from the spectra. In a number of cases, the structures assigned differ from those earlier postulated. Broadening of one set of aryl signals (probably those due to the ortho carbons) in the case of N-methyl (but not N-H) compounds without ortho substituents is ascribed to restricted phenyl rotation.     

Ring opening reactions of 6-oxo-substituted spiro-pyrrolidinediones: Synthesis of 4-substituted-1,5-dihydro-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,5-diphenyl-2H-pyrroles

Reaction of 2-oxocylalkaneglyoxylate esters with N-phenylmethyleneaniline yields spiro compounds such as 2-aza-3,4,6,-trioxo-1,2-diphenylspiro[4.4]nonane 4 and cycloalkane-2-aza-3,4,6-trioxo-1,2-diphenylspiro-[4.5]decanes 5–7 . These undergo solvolytic opening of the the oxocycloalkane ring to yield 4-substituted-1,5-dihydro-3-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,5-diphenyl-2H-pyrroles 12–17 .     

Synthesis of 4-aryl-1,3-diphenyl-1,4,5,10-tetrahydropyrazolo-[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepines

A convenient method is proposed for the synthesis of the previously unknown 4-aryl-1,3-diphenyl-1,4,5,10-tetrahydropyrazolo[3,4-b][1,5]benzodiazepines by cyclocondensation of 5-(2-aminoanilino)-1,3-diphenylpyrazole with aromatic aldehydes. The reaction only takes place very selectively with aldehydes which contain electron acceptor substituents in the aryl fragment. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 913–918, June, 2006.     

Reactions with pyrrolidine-2,4-diones,II: New approaches to the synthesis of substituted 5,6-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazol-4(2H,4H)ones

Summary Approaches leading to 5,6-dihydro-5,6-diphenyl-2-substituted-pyrrolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]-triazol-4(2H,4H)-ones (10) are described. The first approach consists of cyclodehydrating 3(or 4)-hydroxyimino-1,5-diphenyl-4(or 3)-(4-substituted phenylhydrazono)pyrrolidin-2-ones (4,7) with boiling acetic anhydride. The second approach involves cyclization of 3(or 4)-acetoxyimino-1,5-diphenyl-4(or 3)-(4-substituted phenylhydrazono)pyrrolidin-2-ones (8,9) with elimination of acetic acid upon treatment with sodium hydroxide.Part of the work has been presented at the 8^th International Congress of Heterocyclic Chemistry (August 1981), Graz, Austria     

Synthesis of 4-substituted chlorophthalazines, dihydrobenzoazepinediones, 2-pyrazolylbenzoic acid, and 2-pyrazolylbenzohydrazide via 3-substituted 3-hydroxyisoindolin-1-ones

Herein we describe a general three-step synthesis of 4-substituted chlorophthalazines in good overall yields. In the key step, N,N-dimethylaminophthalimide (8a) directs the selective monoaddition of alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl organometallic reagents to afford 3-substituted 3-hydroxyisoindolinones 9b, 9i-9am. Many of these hydroxyisoindolinones are converted to chlorophthalazines 1b-1v via reaction with hydrazine, followed by chlorination with POCl(3). We have also discovered two novel transformations of 3-vinyl- and 3-alkynyl-3-hydroxyisoindolinones. Addition of vinyl organometallic reagents to N,N-dimethylaminophthalimide (8a) provided dihydrobenzoazepinediones 15a-15c via the proposed ring expansion of 3-vinyl-3-hydroxyisoindolinone intermediates. 3-Alkynyl-3-hydroxyisoindolinones react with hydrazine and substituted hydrazines to afford 2-pyrazolyl benzoic acids 16a-16d and 2-pyrazolyl benzohydrazides 17a-17g rather than the expected alkynyl phthalazinones.     

Chemistry of 2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-3-pyranones

5-Aryl-2-acylmethylene-2,3-dihydro-3-furanones are recyclized by the action of hydrazine hydrate with the formation of 3-substituted 6-aryl-1H-4-pyridazinones, 3-alkoxycarbonylacetyl-5-aryl-4-methylpyrazoles, or 5-aryl-3-(3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-5-pyrazolyl) pyrazoles, depending on the structure of the starting materials and the ratio of the reactants. The last-named are also obtained by the hydrazinolysis of the known 2-alkoxycarbonylmethyl-2-hydroxy-1,5-diaryl-2,3-dihydro-3-pyrrolones.For Communication 6, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1031–1038, August, 1992.     

Polyfunctional pyrazoles. 4. Synthesis of 3-[3-aryl-1-(2-ethoxycarbonyl)-4-pyrazolyl]acrylic and-propionic acids

3-(3-Aryl-4-formyl-1-pyrazolyl)propionic acids are converted by Knoevenagel condensation under conditions of microwave activation into 3-[3-aryl-1-(2-ethoxycarbonyl)-4-pyrazolyl]acrylic acids. Reduction of the latter with hydrazine hydrate in the presence of Raney nickel gives 3-[3-aryl-1-(2-ethoxycarbonyl)-4-pyrazolyl]propionic acids. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 686–690, May, 2006.
