A reaction of 3-allyl- and 3-phenylthiohydantoins with 1,5-diphenyl- and 1-phenyl-substituted 3-formyl-2-pyrazolines was used to obtain a series of 5-(pyrazolin-3-ylmethylidene)-2-thioxotetrahydro-4H-imidazol-4-ones, the subsequent alkylation of which with methyl iodide or ethyl chloroacetate gave the corresponding 2-alkylthio-5-(pyrazolin-3-ylmethylidene)-3,5-dihydro-4H-imidazol-4-ones in the yields from 30 to 77%. The oxidation of (5Z)-3-phenyl-5-[(1,5-diphenylpyrazolin-3-yl)methylidene]-2-methylsulfanyl-4,5-dihydroimidazol-4-one with lead tetraacetate led to the corresponding pyrazole in 48% yield.     

Ab Initio Study of Conformational Properties of ( Z, Z)-, ( E, Z)-, and ( E, E)-Cyclonona-1,5-dienes

Summary. Ab initio calculations at the HF/6-31G^* level of theory for geometry optimization and MP2/6-31G^*//HF/6-31G^* for a single point total energy calculation are reported for the important energy-minimum conformations and transition-state geometries of (Z,Z)-, (E,Z)-, and (E,E)-cyclonona-1,5-dienes. The C₂ symmetric chair conformation of (Z,Z)-cyclonona-1,5-diene is calculated to be the most stable form; the calculated energy barrier for ring inversion of the chair conformation via the C_s symmetric boat-chair geometry is 58.3kJmol^–1. Interconversion between chair and twist-boat-chair (C₁) conformations takes place via the twist (C₁) as intermediate. The unsymmetrical twist conformation of (E,Z)-cyclonona-1,5-diene is the most stable form. Ring inversion of this conformation takes place via the unsymmetrical chair and boat-chair geometries. The calculated strain energy for this process is 63.5kJmol^–1. The interconversion between twist and the boat-chair conformations can take place by swiveling of the trans double bond with respect to the cis double bond and requires 115.6kJmol^–1. The most stable conformation of (E,E)-cyclonona-1,5-diene is the C₂ symmetric twist-boat conformation of the crossed family, which is 5.3kJmol^–1 more stable than the C_s symmetric chair–chair geometry of the parallel family. Interconversion of the crossed and parallel families can take place by swiveling of one of the double bonds and requires 142.0kJmol^–1.

On the other hand, alkylation of compounds 6 with methyl iodide or benzyl bromide produced the corresponding methyl (E)-4-(2-methoxy- or 2-benzyloxy-1-methyl-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-4(5H)-ylidene)-5-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates 9, derivatives of a new triazafulvalene system.     

Ultraviolet spectra of 2-phenyl-4- and 2-phenyl-5-azaindan-1, 3-diones

The UV spectra of 2-phenyl-4-azaindan-1, 3-dione (I), 2-phenyl-5-azaindan-1, 3-dione (II), and their N-methylbetaines are investigated. 2×10^–5 M aqueous alcoholic solutions of 2-phenyl-4-azaindan-1, 3-dione (I) contain the anionic form (IA), and in solutions of 2-phenyl-5-azaindan-1, 3-dione (II) the betaine form (IIB) is also in equilibrium with the anion (IIA). Solutions of I and II in 0.1 M sulfuric acid are characterized by a wide and rather intense absorption band at about 500 m, indicating the presence of a betaine form (IB and IIB). In 2M hydrochloric acid solution 2-phenylazaindan-1, 3-diones and their N-methylbetaines (III and IV) are protonated at the oxygen atom, giving the enol forms of the N-protonated or corresponding N-methylated 2-phenylazaindandiones.     

Synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles

Abstract  

An efficient synthesis method for the preparation of a series of new (Z)- and (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles was developed. The reaction of (Z)- and (E)-3-styrylchromones with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding (Z)- and (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles, except for nitro derivatives, where both (Z)- and (E)-4′-nitro-3-styrylchromones afforded (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-(4-nitrostyryl)pyrazoles. The reaction mechanism for these transformations is discussed and the stereochemistries of all products were established by NMR experiments.     

Potentiometric and Thermodynamic Studies of 4-Sulfamethazineazo-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2- pyrazolin-5-one and Its Metal Complexes

Proton–ligand dissociation constants of 4-sulfamethazineazo-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2- pyrazolin-5-one (SMP) and metal–ligand stability constants of its complexes with bivalent metal ions (Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ , Cu²⁺, and Zn²⁺) have been determined potentiometrically in 0.1 M KCl, and a 40% (v/v) ethanol–water mixture. The order of the stability constants of the complexes was found to be Mn²⁺ < Co < Ni < Cu < Zn. The dissociation constants, pK ^H, of SMP and the stability constants, log K, of its complexes were determined at different temperatures and the corresponding thermodynamic parameters ( G, H, and S) were derived and discussed. The dissociation process is nonspontaneous, endothermic, and entropically unfavorable. The formation of the complexes were found to be spontaneous, endothermic, and entropically favorable.     

Synthesis and electrochemical studies of CoII complex with 3-phenyl-5(Z)-(pyridin-2-ylmethylidene)-2-selenohydantoin

A reaction of the sodium salt of 3-phenyl-5(Z)-(pyridin-2-ylmethylidene)-2-selenoxoimidazolidin-4-one (NaL) with CoCl₂·6 H₂O in MeCN gave rise to the complex CoL₂ in 56% yield. Cyclic voltammetry showed that the coordination compound formed was reversibly reduced “at the metal”. According to the CVA data, the product of its reduction, in contrast to the earlier synthesized sulfur-containing analog, undergoes alkylation with n-butyl iodide at the organic ligand fragment.

Two Modifications of the Mixed-Ligand Complex ZnPhen(i-C3H7OCS2)2 with Monodentate and Bidentate Ligands i-C3H7OCS 2 -

Two crystal modifications (m-1 and m-2) of the mixed-ligand complex ZnPhen(i-PrOCS₂)₂ have been isolated. Their crystal structures were solved using X-ray diffraction data (CAD-4 diffractometer, MoK radiation, 3141 and 3532 F_hkl, R = 0.0363 and 0.0304). For both modifications, the crystals are monoclinic with unit cell parameters a = 10.543(2), b = 13.494(3), c = 16.875(3) , = 102.08(3)°, V = 2347.6(8) ³, Z = 4, space group P2₁/n (m-1) and a = 10.931(2), b = 12.996(3), c = 16.288(3) , = 92.69(3)°, V = 2311.3(8) ³, Z = 4, space group P2₁/n (m-2). The structures basically consist of discrete monomer molecules in which the Zn atom has a tetragonal pyramidal (m-1: ZnN₂S₃, c.n. 5, bidentate and monodentate i-PrOCS ₂ ^- ligands) or distorted octahedral (m-2: ZnN₂S₄, c.n. 6, bidentate i-PrOCS ₂ ^- ligands) environment. Molecular packings and their interactions in the structures are discussed.

Synthesis and autooxidative transformation of 2-(2-aminophenyl)-4-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1-isoquinolone

2-(2-Aminophenyl)-4-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1-isoquinolone was unexpectedly obtained in the reaction of 3-(-bromobenzyl)-3-bromophthalide with o-phenylenediamine. The isoquinolone in chloroform undergoes autooxidation by air oxygen to give 2-(2-aminophenyl)-3-hydroperoxy-3-phenyl-1,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, which is subsequently converted to N-(2-benzamidophenyl)phthalimide. A mechanism is proposed for the rearrangement of the hydroperoxide.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 83–87, January, 1982.

Bromination and Azidation Reactions of 2-Styrylchromones. New Syntheses of 4(5)-Aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

The bromination of 2-styrylchromones, bearing electron neutral substituents, with two molar equivalents of piridinium tribromide gave 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones and 3-bromo-2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones. The presence of electron-donating substituents on their B ring led to a mixture of compounds due to the higher reactivity of their C(2)=C(3) and C=C double bonds, whereas the strongly electron-withdrawing group hindered the bromination. The dehydrobromination of 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones with triethylamine gave a diastereomeric mixture of (E)- and (Z)-2-(-bromostyryl)chromones. Some novel 4(5)-aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles have been obtained from the reactions of 2-(2-aryl-1,2-dibromoethyl)chromones, 2-(-bromostyryl)chromones, and 2-styrylchromones with sodium azide. The reactions of 2-styrylchromones with sodium azide are more efficient, general, and constitute a one-pot synthetic method of 4(5)-aryl-5(4)-(2-chromonyl)-1,2,3-triazoles allowing the preparation of 1,2,3-triazoles bearing either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents in their aryl ring. The structure of all new compounds was established by extensive NMR spectroscopic studies.
