Basicity and structure of α,β-unsaturated ketones of the heterocyclic series

The protolytic equilibrium constants of five pyrrole and three indole analogs of the chalcones in the H₂SO₄-CH₃COOH system have been determined spectrophotometrically. The electronic influences of the 2-pyrryl, N-methyl-2-pyrryl, indol-3-yl, and N-methylindol-3-yl groups have been evaluated quantitatively by means of their ⁺ parameters which are, respectively: –2.10, –2.07, –2.25, and –2.28. It has been shown that in , -unsaturated ketones the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic radicals 2-pyrryl and indol-3-yl, and also their N-methyl derivatives, exhibit a positive dynamic conjugation effect considerably exceeding that for 2-furyl, 2-thienyl, and 2-selenienyl.For part V, see [12].     

Condensation of N-(piperidylidene-4)arylamines with acetylenedicarboxylic esters

The substituted piperidines, N-(piperidin-3-en-4-yl)-N-(1,2-dimethoxycarbonyl-etheno)arylamine and 1-aryl-3,4,5,6-tetramethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydrospiro[cyclo-[pyridine-2,4-piperidine], were synthesized by the condensation of acetylenedicarboxylic ester with an azomethine, obtained from a -piperidone. It was found that the amounts of 11 and 12 addition compounds obtained depends on the ratio of starting reagents. Compounds isomeric at the vinyl group were examined in the case of one of the 11 addition compounds. N-(1,2,5-trimethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N-(1,2-dimethoxycarbonyletheno)aniline was prepared by two methods.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 943–946, July, 1986.     

Indole derivatives

Benzylthio(skatyl)malonic ester has been synthesized by the condensation of gramine in toluene or its methiodide in ethanol with benzylthiomalonic ester, and this has been converted by monodecarboxylation and debenzylation with sodium in liquid ammonia into DL--mercapto--(indol-3-yl)propionic acid [-(3-indol-yl) thiolactic acid]. DL--Benzylmercapto--(indol-3-yl)propionic acid has also been obtained from methyl DL--bromo--(indol-3-yl)propionate and benzyl mercaptan. Alkaline hydrolysis of S-[-(indol-3-yl)--methoxycarbonylmethyl]thiouronium bromide has led to ring closure with the formation of 5-skatylthiazolidine-2, 4-dione.For part XLVIII, see [1].     

Synthesis of 2-[β-(5′-halogenofur-2′-yl)vikyl]benzimidazoles

The methiodides of the 1-methyl-substituted derivatives ofI readily react with secondary amines (piperidine, dimethylamine)giving methiodides of 2-[-(5-dialkylaminofur-2-yl)vinyl]-1-methylbenzimidazoles.

Studies in the area of 2,3′-biquinolyl. 1. Arylation and hetarylation of 2,3′-biquinolyl dianion

The 2,3-biquinolyl dianion, when reacting with aryl- and hetaryl halides, forms arylation products at the 4 position, and treatment of these products with alkyl halides or water yields 1-alkyl-4-aryl-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls or 4-aryl-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls, respectively. Oxidation of the latter yields 4-aryl-2,3-biquinolyls. The cation dependence of the arylation reaction is demonstrated.Stavropol' State University, Stavropol' 355009.

Interaction of V2O5 with oxygen in the gas phase

Sorption/evolution of oxygen from V₂O₅ in the temperature range of 480–520°C is due to a shift in the defect equilibrium 1/2 O₂ (gas)+V_oO_o. A first-order kinetic equation can be derived under the assumption that the activation energy depends on the concentration of defects.

Comparative kinetic and thermodynamic study on the chlorination of V2O5 with CCl4, COCl2 and Cl2

The chlorination kinetics of pure vanadia was studied via isothermal thermogravimetric measurements, with CCl₄, CoCl₂ and Cl₂ as chlorinating agents. At temperatures where chemical control was predominant, apparent activation energies of 77, 48 and 126 kJ: mol^–1 were obtained for chlorination by CCl₄, COCl₄ and Cl₂, respectively. For interpretation of the conversion vs. time curves in the whole conversion range, a non-uniform particle size distribution was assumed, where the reacting solid phase was considered to be composed of thin plates of different thicknesses. With this model, a fairly good correspondence was obtained between the measured and calculated kinetic curves. Selected thermodynamic calculation data on the V₂O₅ + CCl₄, V₂O₅ + COCl₂ and V₂O₅ + Cl₂ systems are presented.

Zusammenfassung Mittels isothermen Thermogravimetriemessungen wurde die Kinetik der Chlorierung von reinem Vanadiumoxid mit CCl₄, COCl₂ und Cl₂ als Chlorierungsmittel untersucht. Bei Temperaturen mit vorherrschender chemischer Kontrolle wurde für die Chlorierung mit CCl₄, COCl₂ bzw. Cl₂ Bruttoaktivierungsenergien von 77, 48 bzw. 126 kJ/mol erhalten. Zur Interpretation der Konversion-Zeit-Diagramme im gesamten Conversionsbereich wurde eine nichteinheitliche Teilchengrösseverteilung angenommen, namentlich den Bestand der reagierenden Festphase aus dünnen Plättchen unterschiedlicher Dicke. Mit diesem Modell konnte eine recht gute Übereinstimmung zwischen errechneten und ermittelten kinetischen Kurven erhalten werden. Einige thermodynamische Rechenbeispiele für die Systeme V₂O₅ + CCl₄, V₂O₅ + COCl₂ und V₂O₅+Cl₂ wurden gegeben.

N-allylation and N-benzylation of 2-phenylindole and its condensation with carbonyl compounds

By allylation and benzylation of 2-phenyl- and 2-phenyl-3-formylindole, N-allyl- and benzyl-substituted indoles have been obtained. By condensation of 2-phenylindole with 2-formylfluorene, and also with 4-aza- or 3-methyl-2-azafluorenone, compounds containing fragments of the indole, fluorene, and azafluorenone systems have been synthesized. In the interaction of 2-phenylindole or indole with formaldehyde and 2,5-dimethylpiperidin-4-one, depending on the temperature, bis(2-phenylindol-3-yl)methane, (2,5-dimethyl-4-oxopiperidino)-(1-indolyl)methane, and bis(indol-3-yl)methane are formed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, Vol. 29, No. 5, pp. 648–650, May, 1993.     

New chiral acyclic analogs of 2′-deoxynucleosides

Convenient methods for the synthesis of chiral 2,3-seco-2-deoxynucleosides were developed. An isopropylidene protective group was used to block the 3,5-hydroxy groups in 2,3-seco-uridine. Conversion of the hydroxymethyl group to a methyl group was accomplished by chlorination with a mixture of CCl₄ and Ph₃P with subsequent reduction with n-Bu₃SnH. 2,3-seco-2-Deoxyuridine was obtained after deacetonation. The (S) enantiomer was similarly synthesized starting from 1-(-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracil. 3-O-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl-5-O-(p-monomethoxytrityl)-2,3-seco-2-deoxyuridine, which has optically active centers at C₍₁₎ and C₍₄₎, was also synthesized.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 822–826, June, 1988.The authors thank Professor M.
