Reactions of 2-Deoxy-4, 5-O-Isopropylidene-D-Erythro- and D-Threo-Pent-1-Enose Derivatives

ABSTRACT

The reactivity of the title compounds has been studied toward different nucleophiles and electrophiles. Unlike other ketene dithioacetals, compounds 3-5 did not add nucleophiles to the double bond. Instead, in the presence of Lewis acids they underwent substitution reaction at position 3. If the nucleophile was not strong enough, formation of 6 and 7 were observed. With 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-β-D-glucopyranose (18), a 3:1 mixture of 11 and 12 was formed from 4. These observations may be interpreted in terms of easy formation of the allylic carbocation I which gives diastereomers with nucleophiles. However, this allylic ether-like behaviour was ruled out by the fact that compounds 9 and 10 did not undergo [2,3] sigmatropic rearrangement with lithium diisopropylamide. With N-bromosuccinimide compound 3 gave the 2-bromo derivative 8. Compounds 3 and 8 resisted common mercury salt assisted demercaptalization procedures.     

Bridgehead nitrogen heterocycles. VI. The reaction of 1-amino- and 1,2-diaminopyridinium salts with β-dicarbonyl compounds

1,2-Diaminopyridinium iodide underwent reaction with ethyl acetoacetate to form 1,4-dihydro-2-methyl-4-oxopyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-1-ium iodide, and with acetyl acetone it gave 2,4-dimethylpyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ium iodide. Though 2-acetylcyclohexanone gave the corresponding 5-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido[1,2-a]quinazolin-11-ium iodide, no reaction was observed with 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-heptanedione, 1-benzoylacetone, 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione and its p-methoxyphenyl derivative. However, 1-aminopyridinium iodide and acetyl acetone in the presence of base gave 3-acetyl-2-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine and 1-amino-2-methylpyridinium iodide yielded the corresponding 3-acetyl-2,7-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine. With ethyl acetoacetate, the latter salt formed 3-ethoxycarbonyl-2,7-dimethylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine but with 2,6-dimethyl substituents in the pyridine ring no condensation occurred. Reaction of 1-amino-2-methylpyridinium iodide with benzaldehyde gave N-benzalimino-2-methylpyridinium iodide which, on treatment with base, resulted in the formation of 2-picoline and benzonitrile, providing a convenient method of deamination.     

Ring transformation of 5-acylpyrimidines into 4-acylpyrazoles with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine in acidic medium

5-Benzoyl-4-methylpyrimidines 4a,b and 5-acetyl-4-phenylpyrimidines 5a,b reacted with hydrazines in alcoholic acidic medium to give respectively 4-acetyl-3-phenylpyrazoles 7, 9 and 10 and 4-benzoyl-3-methylpyrazoles 6, 8 and 11 . In the reaction with phenylhydrazine, 5-benzoyl-4-methyl-2-methylthiopyrimidine ( 4a ) led exclusively to 4-acetyl-1,3-diphenylpyrazole ( 10 ) as 5-acetyl4-phenyl-2-methylthiopyrimidine ( 5a ) led to 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole ( 11 ) via the initial formation of phenylhydrazones of pyrimidines 4a and 5a . However, 5-benzoyl-4-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine ( 4b ) and 5-acetyl-2,4-diphenylpyrimidine ( 5b ) reacted with phenylhydrazine to afford, each of them, a mixture of two isomeric pyrazoles. The mechanism of these ring contraction reactions is discussed.     

Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of tenuazonic acid and related tetramic acids

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic system for the determination of the fungal toxin, tenuazonic acid, (5S,8S)-3-acetyl-5-sec.-butyltetramic acid, is described. The system utilizes a column packed with deactivated end-capped C18 silica with a high carbon load to overcome the problem of poor chromatographic performance of this beta-diketone on reversed-phase liquid chromatography which previously necessitated the use of anion-exchange, ligand-exchange or ion-pairing methods. The reversed-phase system allows the separation of tenuazonic acid from its (5R,8S)-diastereomer, allo-tenuazonic acid and was applied to the detection of tenuazonic acid in cultures of Alternaria alternata and Phoma sorghina. By means of diode-array ultraviolet detection, (5S)-3-acetyl-5-isopropyltetramic acid was observed in extracts of culture material. This metabolite was purified using the analytical reversed-phase system and was identified by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.     

Facile synthesis and platinum complexes of 4',5,5'-trisubstituted-2,2':6',2'-terpyridines

The synthesis of trisubstituted 4',5,5' terpyridines is described. The strategy begins with synthesis of 2-acetyl-5-bromopyridine (3) from 2,5-dibromopyridine, substitution of the bromine in 3 using a variety of metal-catalyzed reactions and then formation of the terpyridine using the Krohnke reaction. The complexes have been prepared by reaction of [Pt(PhCN)(2)Cl(2)] with the appropriate silver salt followed by addition of the terpyridyl ligand. The crystal structure of two complexes have been determined via X-ray diffraction and the MLCT (metal-to-ligand charge-transfer) emissions determined by UV/Vis spectroscopy.     

Manganese(III) acetate oxidation of 1-acetylindole derivatives

In the presence of malonic acid, the reaction of 1-acetylindole ( 2 ) with manganese(III) acetate resulted in the formation of 4-acetyl-3,3a,4,8b-tetrahydro-2H-furo[3,2-b]indol-2-one ( 5 ). The same reaction of 1-acetyl-2,3-dimethylindole yielded a mixture of 2-acetoxymethyl-1-acetyl-3-methylindole and 4-acetyl-3a,8b-dimethyl-3,3a,4,8b-tetrahydro-2H-furo[3,2-b]indol-2-one, furthermore, the oxidation of 1-acetylindoline proceeded to the formation of 2, 5 and 1-acetylindoline-5-carboxylic acid.     

NMR spectra of cyclic nitrones. 4. Synthesis and 13C NMR spectra of 4H-imidazole N-oxides and N,N-dioxides

4H-Imidazole 1,3-dioxides and 4H-imidazole 3-oxides were obtained by oxidation of 1-hydroxy-3-imidazoline 3-oxides and 1-hydroxy-3-imidazolines with lead and manganese dioxides or the stable nitroxyl radical, while 4H-imidazole 1-oxides were obtained by thermal decomposition of 1-acetoxy-3-imidazoline 3-oxides. Facile oxidation of the ethyl group in 5-ethyl-4H-imidazole 1,3-dioxide and the formation of 5-acetyl-4H-imidazole 1,3-dioxide and 5-acetyl-4H-imidazole 3-oxide were observed. It is shown that a strictly determined region of chemical shifts of the C(₂), C(₅), and C(₄) atoms is characteristic for each group of 4H-imidazole N-oxides in the ¹³C NMR spectra; this makes it possible to clearly establish the position of the N-oxide oxygen atom.See [1] for Communication 3.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1640–1648, December, 1988.     

New transformations of 3-acetyl-5-(alkoxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-ones

Alkylation of 3-acetyl-5-(alkoxymethyl)tetrahydrofuran-2-ones gave 3-acetyl-5-(alkoxymethyl)-tetrahydrofuran-2-ones containing various substituents in position 3 of the heterocycle. Bromination of the latter afforded 3-(bromoacetyl) derivatives which reacted with various nucleophiles to produce derivatives containing benzimidazole, 2-amino-1,3-thiazole, 3-chloropyridine, and 3,5-dibromopyridine fragments together with the butanolide ring.     

Novel One Pot Synthesis of 3-Acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylbenzofuran and 3-Acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylnaphthofuran and Synthesis of Their Derivatives

Abstract

The benzofurans and naphthofurans so far were obtained either by using catalyst or as side products. In the present investigation we are reporting first time the exclusive formation of only 3-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylbenzofuran and 3-acetyl-5-hydroxy-2-methylnaphthofuran in quantitative yield by adopting the Nenitzescu reaction. Further, these 5-hydroxybenzofuran and 5-hydroxynaphthofuran were converted to their corresponding 5-methoxyl/5-methoxycarbonylmethoxy derivatives.     

1-Acetyl-2-chloro-3-iminoindoline hydrochloride and its N-acetyl derivatives in nucleophilic substitution reactions

It is shown that the chlorine atom in position 2 of 1-acetyl-2-chloro-3-iminoindoline hydrochloride is readily substituted on treatment with secondary amines and thiophenol. The products of nucleophilic reaction are isolated as 2-substituted 3-aminoindoles or 3-acetylaminoindoles, and as 2-substituted 1-acetyl-3-indolinones. The latter are also formed from 1-acetyl-3-indolinone by successive bromination and treatment with secondary amines.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 49–54, January, 1992.     

Investigation of the direction of enolization of some furyl-substituted β-diketones

It was found that ω-benzoyl-2-acetyl-, ω-benzoyl-2-acetyl-5-bromo-, ω-(2-thenoyl-2-acetyl-, and ω-(5-bromo-2-thenoyl)-2-acetyl-bromofurans are enolized at the carbonyl group in the α position relative to the furyl grouping.     

Pyrroloindoles. 6. New synthesis of 1H, 5H-pyrrolo[2,3-f]indole and 3H,6H-pyrrolo[3,2-e]indole

Ethyl pyruvate 1-acetyl-5-indolinylhydrazone was obtained by diazotization of 1-acetyl-5-aminoindoline with subsequent reduction of the diazonium salt and condensation of the hydrazine with ethyl pyruvate. A mixture of hydrogenated derivatives of linear and angular pyrroloindoles is formed as a result of cyclization of the hydrazone in polyphosphoric acid esters. Subsequent hydrolysis, decarboxylation, and dehydrogenation lead to 1H,5H-pyrrolo[2,3-f]indole and 3H,6H-pyrrolo-[3,2-e]indole.See [1] for Communication 5.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 504–507, April, 1982.     

Formation of carbon-carbon single bonds from isocyanates and cyclic pentaoxyphosphoranes—VI : Synthesis of 4-oxazolones and 4-thiazolones,and a new type of chapman rearrangement

The reaction of 4,5-dimethyl-2,2,2-trimethoxy-2,2-dihydro-1,3,2-dioxaphospholene with carbomethoxy, carbopropoxy and N,N-diphenylcarbamyl isocyanates yields, respectively, 2-methoxy-, 2-propoxy- and 2- diphenylamino-5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-oxazolin-4-one. The reaction with carbophenoxy isocyanate gives two products in a proportion which depends on experimental conditions: 2-phenoxy-5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-oxalin-4-one (1:1 stoichiometry) and 1,3-dicarbophenoxy-5-acetyl-5-methyl-hydantoin (1:2 stoichiometry). The 2-substituted 4- oxazolones are hydrolyzed to 5-acetyl-5-methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-dione. The alkyl group of the 2-alkoxy-4-oxazolones migrates to the adjacent nitrogen to give 3-alkyl-5-acetyl-5-methyl-oxazolidin-2,4-diones. The dioxaphospholene reacts with 2-substituted 2-thiazolin-4,5-diones to give 2-substituted 5-acetyl-5-methyl-2-thiazolin-4-ones, including rhodanine derivatives.     

Unexpected Dual Acylation of Naphtho[2,1-b]furan at the Aryl and Hetaryl Ring: Experimental and Theoretical Study

N-benzoyl- and arenesulfonylimines of methyl trifluoropyruvate in the cyclocondensation reaction with acetylacetone

A cyclocondensation reaction of N-benzoyl- and arenesulfonylimines of methyl trifluoropyruvate with acetylacetone was studied, which led to the formation of 3-substituted 4-acetyl-5-methyl-2-oxo-3-trifluoromethyl-2,3-dihydrofurans.     

Azines and azoles: CXXV. New regioselective synthesis of 1-amino-6-methyluracils

Readily accessible 5-acetyl-4-hydroxy-3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3-thiazine-2,6-dione reacts with substituted hydrazines and carboxylic acid hydrazides under mild conditions to give the corresponding hydrazones. Under severe conditions (heating in boiling dimethylformamide) the reaction is accompanied by extrusion of COS with formation of substituted 1-amino-6-methyluracils. Reactions of 5-acetyl-4-hydroxy-3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3-thiazine-2,6-dione with monosubstituted alkyl-and arylhydrazines take different pathways, depending on the conditions. Heating of equimolar mixtures of the reactants in ethanol or propan-1-ol leads to the formation of 2-substituted 5-methyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamides rather than 1-amino-6-methyluracil derivatives.     

Synthesis and reactions of halo-, nitro-, and arylazo-substituted 3-acetyltropolones. Formation of heterocycle-fused troponoid compounds

3-Acetyltropolone ( 1 ) reacted with bromine, iodine, and nitric acid to afford respectively 3-acetyl-5,7-di-bromotropolone ( 2 ), 3-acetyl-7-iodotropolone ( 3 ), and 3-acetyl-5-nitro- ( 4 ) and 3-acetyl-5,7-dinitrotropolone ( 5 ). Azo-coupling reactions of 1 gave 3-acetyl-5-arylazotropolones 7a-f. The Schmidt reactions of 2 and 3 gave respectively 5,7-dibromo- ( 9 ) and 7-iodo-2-methyl-8H-cyclohept[d]oxazol-8-one ( 10 ), while 4 gave 3-acetamido-5-nitrotropolone ( 11 ). Compounds 2 and 4 reacted with hydroxylamine to give 3-methyl-8H-cyclohept[d]isoxazol-8-ones 12 and 13. The reactions of 2 , 3 , and 4 with hydrazine gave 3-methyl-1,8-dihydrocycloheptapyrazol-8-ones 15 , 16 , and 17.     

Study on fragmentation behavior of 5/7/6-type taxoids by tandem mass spectrometry

The mass spectrometric behaviors of seven compounds, namely four 4beta(20),5-oxetane 5/7/6-type taxoids (i.e. taxayuntin A, taxayuntin B, taxayuntin and taxayuntin C) and three 4(20)-methylene 5/7/6-type taxoids (i.e. brevifoliol, taxchinin A and 7-acetyl-10-deacetyl-7-debenzoylbrevifoliol) have been investigated by the positive ion FAB-MS/MS technique. The fragmentation has been correlated with the types and positions of substituents of these compounds. It has been found that with the OH group at the C-10 position, taxayuntin A, taxayuntin B and 7-acetyl-10-deacetyl-7-debenzoylbrevifoliol are dominated by the loss of H2O, while with the BzO group at the C-10 position, taxayuntin, taxayuntin C, brevifoliol and taxchinin A preferentially eliminate the BzO group. In addition, C-2 is an active site, and neutral loss from the C-2 position readily occurs. The four 4beta(20),5-oxetane 5/7/6-type taxoids produce the terminal product ion with a stable conjugated system at m/z 311, while the 4(20)-methylene 5/7/6-type taxoids brevifoliol and 7-acetyl-10-deacetyl-7-debenzoylbrevifoliol produce this ion at m/z 237, and taxchinin A at m/z 253. Interestingly, characteristic fragment ions involving the loss of a 118 u group were observed for taxayuntin, and a possible fragmentation mechanism is given. The major fragmentation pathways and mechanisms of ion formation for the compounds are proposed on the basis of CID spectra and accurate mass measurements. The results of this paper will be helpful for structural analysis of analogs.     

Synthesis and properties of 5-(1,2-dihaloethyl)-2′-deoxyuridines and related analogues

The regiospecific reaction of 5-vinyl-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 2 ) with HOX (X = Cl, Br, I) yielded the corresponding 5-(1-hydroxy-2-haloethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridines 3a-c . Alternatively, reaction of 2 with iodine monochloride in aqueous acetonitrile also afforded 5-(1-hydroxy-2-iodoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 3c ). Treatment of 5-(1-hydroxy-2-chloroethyl)- ( 3a ) and 5-(1-hydroxy-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 3b ) with DAST (Et₂NSF₃) in methylene chloride at -40° gave the respective 5-(1-fluoro-2-chloroethyl)- ( 6a , 74%) and 5-(1-fluoro-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6b , 65%). In contrast, 5-(1-fluoro-2-iodoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6e ) could not be isolated due to its facile reaction with methanol, ethanol or water to yield the corresponding 5-(1-methoxy-2-iodoethyl)- ( 6c ), 5-(1-ethoxy-2-iodoethyl)- ( 6d ) and 5-(1-hydroxy-2-iodoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 3c ). Treatment of 5-(1-hydroxy-2-chloroethyl)- ( 3a ) and 5-(1-hydroxy-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 3b ) with thionyl chloride yielded the respective 5-(1,2-dichloroethyl)- ( 6f , 85%) and 5-(1-chloro-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6g , 50%), whereas a similar reaction employing the 5-(1-hydroxy-2-iodoethyl)- compound 3c afforded 5-(1-methoxy-2-iodoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6c ), possibly via the unstable 5-(1-chloro-2-iodoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine intermediate 6h . The 5-(1-bromo-2-chloroethyl)- ( 6i ) and 5-(1,2-dibromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6j ) could not be isolated due to their facile conversion to the corresponding 5-(1-ethoxy-2-chloroethyl)- ( 6k ) and 5-(1-ethoxy-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 61 ). Reaction of 5-(1-hydroxy-2-bromoethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 3b ) with methanolic ammonia, to remove the 3′,5′-di-O-acetyl groups, gave 2,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-5-(2′-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-furano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6(5H)-one ( 8 ). In contrast, a similar reaction of 5-(1-fluoro-2-chloroethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine ( 6a ) yielded (E)-5-(2-chlorovinyl)-2′-deoxyuridine ( 1b , 23%) and 5-(2′-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)furano[2,3-d]pyrimidin-6(5H)-one ( 9 , 13%). The mechanisms of the substitution and elimination reactions observed for these 5-(1,2-dihaloethyl)-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridines are described.     

Thymidine- and AZT-linked 5-(1,3-dioxoalkyl)tetrazoles and 4-(1,3-dioxoalkyl)-1,2,3-triazoles

N3 of thymidine and of 3′-azido-3′-deoxythymidine (AZT) has been linked to a tetrazole ring by condensation of nucleoside-derived 2-oxonitriles with the lithium salt of 5-acetyl-1-(4-fluorobenzyl)tetrazole (obtained by a ‘click’ reaction). 4-Acetyl-1,2,3-triazole, also prepared by a Cu-catalysed cycloaddition, has been similarly linked. A route for the conjugation of NRTIs with pharmacophoric elements of integrase inhibitors (INIs) has thus been disclosed.
