It entails cyclocondensation of 3-(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propanoyl hydrazide obtained from levulinic acid, with 1,1,1-trifluoro-4-methoxy-3-alken-2-ones proceeding regiospecifically to 1-[(5-trifluoromethyl-5-hydroxy-3-substituted-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-3-(5-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)propan-1-one derivatives.     

5-(1-Alkenyl)-1, 3, 4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one

3-(2-alkenoyl)-thiocarbazic acid O-methyl esters 1 are desulfurated by bromine and the unknown intermediates are transformed by alkali to 5-(1-alkenyl)-1, 3, 4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-ones ( 2 ). This type of oxadiazolone substitution is not realizable by the common ring closure of hydrazides with phosgene due to pyrazolidinone ring closure of unsaturated acids with hydrazine.     

N- And S-Alkylation of 3-(1-Aadamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol and 2-(1-Adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol

ABSTRACT

-The reaction of 3-(1-adamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol 1 with certain 2-aminoethyl chlorides in alkaline medium yielded a separable mixture of the S-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 2 and the N-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 3. Meanwhile, alkylation of 2-(1-adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol 4 with 2-aminoethyl chlorides under the same conditions yielded only the S-alkyl derivatives 5. Interaction of 4 with primary or secondary amines and formaldehyde solution yielded the corresponding N-aminomethyl derivatives in high yields.

Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Methyl (3)5-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates

Series of methyl 3- and 5-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates were developed and regioselectively synthesized as novel heterocyclic amino acids in their N-Boc protected ester form for achiral and chiral building blocks. In the first stage of the synthesis, piperidine-4-carboxylic and (R)- and (S)-piperidine-3-carboxylic acids were converted to the corresponding β-keto esters, which were then treated with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal. The subsequent reaction of β-enamine diketones with various N-mono-substituted hydrazines afforded the target 5-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates as major products, and tautomeric NH-pyrazoles prepared from hydrazine hydrate were further N-alkylated with alkyl halides to give 3-(N-Boc-piperidinyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates. The structures of the novel heterocyclic compounds were confirmed by ¹H-, ¹³C-, and ¹⁵N-NMR spectroscopy and HRMS investigation.

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.

N- and C-sulfenylation of 1-(1,2-oxazol-3 (and 5)-yl)-3-alkylureas with organic sulfenyl chlorides

Condensation of chlorocarbonylsulfenyl chloride 1 with 1-(5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl)-3-methylurea 4a has been found to give isomeric 2,4-disubstituted-1,2,4-thiazolidine-3,5-diones 5 and 6 . Assignments are confirmed by the X-ray structure data of 6 . Sulfenylation with alkoxycarbonylsulfenyl chlorides 7 and trichloromethylsulfenyl chloride 10 of 4 occurs exclusively on N-1 rather than N-3 of the urea moiety. With the isomeric 1-[3-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,2-oxazol-5-yl]-3-methylurea 14 and ethoxycarbonylsulfenyl chloride 7b , C-sulfenylated derivatives 15 and 16 are formed in low yield.

Conformations of the Ten-membered Ring in 5, 10-Secosteroids. III: (Z)-3β- and (Z)-3α-Hydroxy-5, 10-seco-1 (10)-cholesten-5-one Esters and (Z)-5, 10-seco-1 (10)-Cholestene-3, 5-dione

(Z)-3β-Acetoxy- and (Z)-3 α-acetoxy-5, 10-seco-1 (10)-cholesten-5-one ( 6a ) and ( 7a ) were synthesized by fragmentation of 3β-acetoxy-5α-cholestan-5-ol ( 1 ) and 3α-acetoxy-5β-cholestan-5-ol ( 2 ), respectively, using in both cases the hypoiodite reaction (the lead tetraacetate/iodine version). The 3β-acetate 6a was further transformed, via the 3β-alcohol 6d to the corresponding (Z)-3β-p-bromobenzoate ester 6b and to (Z)-5, 10-seco-1 (10)-cholestene-3, 5-dione ( 8 ) (also obtainable from the 3α-acetate 7a ). The ¹H-and ¹³C-NMR. spectra showed that the (Z)-unsaturated 10-membered ring in all three compounds ( 6a , 7a and 8 ) exists in toluene, in only one conformation of type C ₁, the same as that of the (Z)-3β-p-bromobenzoate 6b in the solid state found by X-ray analysis. The unfavourable relative spatial factors (interdistance and mutual orientation) of the active centres in conformations of type C ₁ are responsible for the absence of intramolecular cyclizations in the (Z)-ketoesters 6 and 7 ( a and c ).
