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     

Facile Synthesis of Some New Pyrazole-Based 2-Thioxo-4-thiazolidinone

5-Ethoxymethylene-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (1) reacts with hydrazine hydrate at room temperature to afford 5-(hydrazinylmethylene)-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (3). Compound 3 condensed with different aromatic aldehydes 6a–d in ethanol in the presence of a few drops of piperidine to give the corresponding Schiff’s bases 7a–d. On the other hand, compound 3 reacts with o-hydroxybenzaldehyde derivatives 8a and 8b in refluxing ethanol catalyzed by a few drops of piperidine to yield 1H-inadzolyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinones 9a and 9b. Reaction of compound 3 with α-ketoesters 10a and 10b or α-diketones 10c–e in refluxing glacial acetic acid furnished the pyrazolyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone derivatives 11a–e. Also, compound 3 reacts with some different enaminones 12a–f in refluxing glacial acetic acid to afford the new pyrazolyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone derivatives 13a–f. Pyrazoles 15a–d was obtained via reaction of compound 3 with chalcones 14a–d in dimethylformamide (DMF). The structures of all the newly synthesized products were confirmed on the basis of their elemental and spectral data, and a plausible mechanism has been postulated to account for their formation.

A series of tetrahomodiazacalix[4]arenes (1–8) with different substituents (or substituted) at the upper rim and/or N-side arm has been synthesized with acceptable yields. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, MS and NMR methods. In particular, 5 was shown by X-ray crystallography to adopt the cone conformation in the solid state. Two-phase picrate extraction showed that 2 and 6, bearing N-2-picolyl arms, are the best extractants. Of the cations tested, Ag(I) is the best extracted by almost all ligands and the extraction efficiency follows the order 2-picolyl > 3-picolyl > 4-picolyl.

KINETIC STUDY ON PHOTOISOMERIZATION OF SOME TETRA- AND HEXASUBSTITUTED 4H-THIOPYRANS

Abstract

The effects of phenyl and methyl groups at 3,5-positions of tetrasubstituted 4H-thiopyrans 1a and 1b on photoisomerization are investigated from a kinetic point of view using ¹H-NMR spectroscopy. On irradiation of 1a-1d in benzene-d₆ solution the hexasubstituted 4H-thi-opyrans 1c and 1d, unlike those of the tetrasubstituted analogues 1a and 1b, give the isomeric 2H-thiopyrans 3c and 3d with no detectable signals for intermediates in ¹H-NMR spectra. The photoisomerization of hexasubstituted 4H-thiopyrans 1c and 1d occur with relative rate constants lower than the corresponding tetrasubstituted model compounds 1a and 1b. Moreover, the kinetic comparison of 1a with 1b reveal that the presence of two phenyl groups at 4-position of tetrasubstituted 4H-thiopyran increases the relative rate constant of photoisomerization.     

SnCl2/EtOH-Mediated Synthesis of Novel 4-Ethoxy- and 4-Chloroindazoles Bearing Sulfonamide Moieties

Abstract

The treatment of N-alkyl-5-nitroindazole with stannous chloride in ethanol, aftercoupling of the obtained amines with arylsulfonyl chloride in pyridine, gave the new 4-ethoxy- and 4-chloroindazoles bearing sulfonamide in moderate to good yields. Chlorination and ethoxylation of indazole were observed during the reduction of the nitro group with anhydrous SnCl₂ in ethanol. The influence of the N-alkylation in N-1 and N-2 position of 5-nitroindazole on the reduction was investigated. The presence ofethoxy group and chlorine atom at position C-4 of indazole was confirmed by x-ray diffraction analysis of compounds 7a and 8a.

SYNTHESIS AND PHOTOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF POLYMER-BOUND HEXANUCLEAR MOLYBDENUM CLUSTERS

Abstract

The coordination of [Mo₆Cl₈ ⁱ(SO₃CF₃)₆ ^a]^2? (1) and [Mo₆Cl₈ ⁱCl₄ ^a(EtOH)₂ ^a] (2) to poly(evinylpyridine) (PVP) produces crosslinked materials. Formation of these materials occurs by displacement of axial ligands ((a) in Fig. 1) SO₃CF₃ ^? or EtOH on the clusters by the vinylpyridine moieties. The availability of six coordination sites in 1 and two coordination sites in 2 offers control over the degree of crosslinking and solubility of the materials. Similarly, varying the ratio of cluster coordination sites (C) to polymer-pendant pyridine ligands (P) yields materials with a wide range of solubilities and glass transition temperatures (T_g). Materials with C:P ratios of 1:100 are highly soluble in CH₂Cl₂ and MeOH, with T_g values slightly higher than that of pure PVP. Unswellable materials with no discernible T_g are obtained with C:P ratios of 1:5 and lower, indicating a high degree of crosslinks. Transient emission spectroscopy reveals that polymer-bound cluster 1 lacks the luminescent properties characteristic of many [Mo₆Cl₈]⁴⁺ based clusters. Conversely, polymer-bound cluster 2 displays intense luminescence and retains the unusually long-lived excited-state observed for the free clusters in solution. The emission lifetime of PVP-bound 2 fits a biexponential decay, with τl₁ = 90 μs (60 %) and τ₂ = 8 μs (40 %), while [Mo₆Cl₈ ⁱCl₆ ^a]^2? has a uniexponential decay of τ = 156 μs in CH₂Cl₂ solution.
