Study of the transmetallation of silicon derivatives ofo-carboranes on treatment with BunLi

Silyl-substitutedo-carboranes 1-R-2-Me₃Si(CH₂) _n -1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀ (R=Me, Ph;n=0, 1) undergo transmetallation on treatment with BuⁿLi to form lithium derivatives ofo-carboranes, 1-R-2-Li(CH₂) _n -1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀, wheren=0, 1. A silicon derivative ofo-carborane, 1-Ph-2-(Me₃SiCHPh)-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀, undergoes neither transmetallation nor metallation at the benzyl CH-group on treatment with BuⁿLi due to significant steric hindrance.

The reactions of aroylpyruvic acids and their derivatives witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol

Aroylpyruvic acids and their methyl esters react witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol to form 4-aryl-2-[2-(1-hydroxydiphenylmethyl)phenylamino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acids and their esters. The α-enamino acids obtained undergo intramolecular heterocyclization in the presence of Ac₂O to affort substituted 4,5-dihydrobenzo[e][1,4]oxazepin-3(1H)-ones. The reaction of 5-arylfuran-2,3-diones witho-aminophenyldiphenylmethanol leads to products of decyclization, 2-(1-hydroxydiphenylmethyl)phenylamides of 4-aryl-2-hydroxy-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid, which upon heating in AcOH or Ac₂O yield 3-aroylacetyl-1,1-diphenyl-1H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazines.

A simple and efficient approach for the synthesis of a novel class aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives via intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction

In this study, we synthesized a new series of substituted aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24) in yields ranging from 42 to 70% with an interesting mechanism that involves internal nucleophilic substitution followed by an S_N2-type nucleophilic substitution. First, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanone (3) was synthesized from the reaction of 5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (1) with 2-bromo-1-(4-chlorophenyl)ethanone (2) in the presence of potassium hydroxide. Then, 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-((5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)thio)ethanol (4) was synthesized by a reduction reaction of this compound using NaBH₄. Finally, 5-methyl-3-alkyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives (6-24), which are the target compounds, were synthesized from the reaction of this compound (4), which is a secondary alcohol with various alkyl halides (5a-n) in the presence of sodium hydride (NaH). This study presents an interesting reaction mechanism related to the synthesis of aliphatic 1,3,4-thiadiazol-2(3H)-one derivatives that is not recorded in the literature.     

5,6,7,8-Tetrafluoro-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives in reactions with o-phenylenediamine

The reactions of 5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives with o-phenylenediamine occur with pyrone heterocycle cleavage and formation of substituted benzodiazepin-2-ones. 5,6,7,8-Tetrafluoro-4-hydroxycoumarin affords 4-(3,4,5,6-tetrafluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-one, 3-acetimidoyl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-hydroxycoumarin produces 3-(3,4,5,6-tetrafluoro-2-hydroxybenzoyl)-4-methyl-1,2-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-one, and 3-acetyl-5,6,7,8-tetrafluoro-4-hydroxycoumarin yields both these heterocycles.     

Synthesis and oxidation of 1-hydroxy-3(2)-imidazoline-derived enaminones

Interaction of 1-hydroxy-3-imidazoline and 3-imidazoline 3-oxide derivatives with esters in the presence of LDA gives enaminones, derivatives of imidazolidine. Oxidation of these compounds with MnO₂ leads to4H-imidazoleN-oxides, oxidative dirnerization products, or stable nitroxyl radicals, depending on the structure of the initial compound.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and recyclization reactions of 4-(o-R-phenyl)-3-imidazolines

1-Hydroxy-4-phenyl-3-imidazoline reacts with butyllithium to give the product oforthometallation of the phenyl group. Reactions of this compound with electrophiles followed by oxidation afford 4-(o-R-phenyl) derivatives of nitroxyl radicals. When a hydroxyalkyl group is present in theortho-position, an unusual pathway of the decay of stable nitroxyl radicals of the imidazoline series has been observed due to the existence of a spirobicyclic tautomer. The reaction of theo-metallated derivative with CS₂ leads to a profound transformation of the imidazoline ring and to the formation of isoindolethione. Fast recyclization into isoquinolines occurs in the case of the 4-(o-benzoyl)phenyl derivative of 3-imidazoline. The product ofo-metallation reacts with methyl nitrate to yield the 4-(o-hydroxy)phenyl derivative (a potential paramagnetic chelate-forming reagent) and theo-nitro derivative, the starting material for further chemical transformations.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A new enlargement methodology for the preparation of 2H-1- and 2H-3-benzazepin-2-one derivatives

An investigation of the one-carbon homologation of some 1-tribromomethyl-isoquinoline and 2-tribromomethyl-quinoline derivatives was conducted. Under the influence of an aqueous solution of silver nitrate in the presence of a nucleophilic species (MeOH, H₂O, EtNH₂), these derivatives led to the respective expanded heterocycles, 2H-1- and 2H-3-benzazepin-2-one derivatives. A mechanism for this novel ring enlargement involving initial formation of an aziridinium, and its subsequent opening to form a stabilized benzylic carbocation, is proposed to explain the results.     

First example of regioselective nucleophilic 1,6-addition of trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane to 4H-chromene derivatives

Condensation of 2-trifluoromethylchromone with diethyl malonate, ethyl cyanoacetate, and Meldrum’s acid gave the corresponding methylidene derivatives of 2-trifluoromethyl-4H-chromene. Nucleophilic 1,6-addition of an excess of Me₃SiCF₃ in the presence of Me₄NF to those obtained from the former two compounds afforded 4-substituted 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromenes.

Influence of substituted groups on the binding ability of benzoyl-modified β-cyclodextrins

A series of substituted benzoyl modified β-cyclodextrins, including mono-6-O-(p-methylbenzoyl)-β-CD (1), mono-6-O-(m-methylbenzoyl)-β-CD (2), mono-6-O-(o-methylbenzoyl)-β-CD (3), mono-6-O-(p-methoxylbenzoyl)-β-CD (4), mono-6-O-(m-methoxylbenzoyl)-β-CD (5), mono-6-O-(o-methoxylbenzoyl)-β-CD (6), mono-6-O-(m, p-dimethoxylbenzoyl)]-β-CD (7), mono-6-O-(o,m-dimethoxylbenzoyl)-β-CD (8), and mono-(6-O-benzoyl)-β-CD (9) were synthesized and their inclusion properties were studied by using fluorescence spectroscopy. The binding constants (K_a) of the modified β-CD derivatives with 2-p-toluidinylnaphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS) were determined on the basis of the fluorescence spectroscopy. The effect of types and location of substituted groups of the benzene ring of the modified β-cyclodextrins on the binding property was discussed. Results indicated that the substituents had significant influences on the binding abilities of modified β-cyclodextrins.     

Synthesis,structure, and properties of organoplatinum(ii) derivatives of diphenyl ether

New mono- and disubstituted organoplatinum(II) derivatives of diphenyl ether,cis-(PhOC₆H₄-o)PtCl(PPh₃)₂ and (o-C₆H₄OC₆H₄-o)Pt(PPh₃)₂, were synthesized by the reaction of 2,2-dilithium diphenyl oxide withcis-Cl₂Pt(PPh₃)₂. Transmetallation of (PhOC₆H₄-o)AuPPh₃ withcis-Cl₂Pt(PPh₃)₂ was studied using³¹P NMR monitoring. This reaction proceeds with the retention of configuration to afford ClAuPPh₃ andcis-(PhOC₆H₄-o)PtCl(PPh₃)₂ under kinetically controlled conditions. The latter complex irreversibly isomerizes into thetrans isomer in the presence of equimolar quantities of ClAuPPh₃, whereas, in the presence of free PPh₃, this isomerization is reversible. The structures of the obtained diphenyl oxide derivatives of platinum were confirmed by³¹P NMR and FAB mass spectrometry. It was established by X-ray structural analysis that in thecis-(PhOC₆H₄-o)PtCl(PPh₃)₂ complex, the Pt atom is in a nearly square-planar coordination, and secondary intramolecular Pt...O interaction occurs.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and antiemetic activity of 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives

5-HT₃ receptor antagonists, such as Ondansetron, are used for anti-emesis after chemotherapy, radiotherapy and operations. Some Ondansetron analogs possessing piperazine ring as side chains were synthesized in our lab. Thus, one of the two carbonyl groups of starting material 1,3-cyclohexandione (1) was condensed with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride to form monophenylhydrazone (2). 1,2,3,9-Tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-one (3) was prepared from 2 via cyclization and rearranged in the presence of ZnCl₂. Through a methylation reaction, compound 3 was converted to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-4H-carbazol-4-one (4). 3-Dimethylaminomethyl substituted compound (5) was synthesized from 4 by a Mannich reaction in glacial acetic acid. Nine novel 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives (6a–6i) were synthesized through nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5 with piperazines. The structures of all the target compounds were determined by elemental analysis, IR, MS, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra. The results of preliminary pharmacological test show that part of the novel compounds have antiemetic activity comparable to that of the control Ondansetron. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2008, 28(2) (in Chinese)

Efficient one-pot synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones from aromatic aldehydes and their one-pot oxidation to quinazolin-4(3H)-ones catalyzed by Bi(NO3)3·5H2O: Investigating the role of the catalyst

An efficient and novel synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones via one-pot, three-component reaction of isatoic anhydride, primary amines and aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O under solvent-free conditions is described. Oxidation of these 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones to their quinazolin-4(3H)-ones was also successfully performed in the presence of Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O. This new method has the advantages of convenient manipulation, short reaction times, excellent yields, very easy work-up, and the use of commercially available, low cost and relatively non-toxic catalyst. The role of Bi(NO₃)₃·5H₂O was also investigated in these transformations.
