Reactions of (Е)-3-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl]-1-ferrocenylprop-2-en-1-one with semicarbazide, thiosemicarbazide, and hydroxylamine led to the formation of 5-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl]-3-ferrocenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole- 1-carboxamide, 5-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl]-3-ferrocenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-1-carbothioamide, and 5-(4-methylphenyl)-3'-ferrocenyl-4',5'-dihydro-3,5'-bi-1,2-oxazole respectively. Reactions of (Е)-3-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl]-1-ferrocenylprop-2-en-1-one with guanidine and thiourea result in 4-[5-(4-methyl-phenyl)-1,2-oxazol-3-yl]-6-ferrocenylpyrimidin-2-amine and -2-thione respectively.     

Functional polymers. XVI. Synthesis and polymerization of 2(2-hydroxy-5-isopropenylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole and a new synthesis of 2(2-hydroxy-5-vinylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole

2(2-Hydroxy-5-isopropenylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole was synthesized in 40% overall yield starting from o-nitroaniline. Diazotization in aqueous hydrochloric acid gave o-nitrophenyl diazonium chloride which was condensed with p-hydroxyacetophenone; the azo compound was reduced to 2(2-hydroxy-5-acetylphenyl) 2H-benzotriazole with zinc powder in sodium hydroxide solution and the 2-hydroxy group of the compound was acetylated. Treatment of the acetyl compound with methyl Grignard reagent resulted in the methylation of the 5-acetyl group to 2[2-acetoxy-5(2-hydroxy-2-propyl)phenyl]2H-benzotriazole which was then dehydrated with potassium hydrogen sulfate to the desired 2(2-hydroxy-5-isopropenylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole. This monomer did not homopolymerize, but was copolymerized readily with styrene, methyl methacrylate, and n-butyl acrylate with azobisisobutyronitrile as the initiator. 2(2-Acetoxy-5-acetylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole was also reduced with sodium borohydride to form 2[2-acetoxy-5-(1-hydroxyethyl)phenyl]2H-benzotriazole which was dehydrated and hydrolyzed to the known 2(2-hydroxy-5-vinylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole. This route provides a novel and simpler synthesis of 2(2-hydroxy-5-vinylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole.

Kit for unsymmetric dinucleating double-Schiff-base ligands: facile access to a versatile new ligand system and its first heterobimetallic copper-zinc complex

The synthetic route toward new unsymmetric compartmental "end-off" Schiff-base ligands in a straightforward two-step reaction of 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol and two different amine components is presented. To demonstrate the versatility of this method, we have synthesized two different single-Schiff-base proligands, Hbpahmb and Hphmb, utilizing (2-aminoethyl)bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine and (2-aminomethyl)pyridine, respectively. Subsequent reaction with thiosemicarbazide as the second amine component leads to the novel unsymmetric double-Schiff-base ligands {1-[3-[2-[bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethyliminomethyl]-2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl]methylidene}hydrazine carbothioamide (H2bpamptsc) and {1-[3-(pyridin-2-ylmethyliminomethyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl]methylidene}hydrazine carbothioamide (H2pmptsc). Both ligands provide two distinctly different coordination pockets: a rigid tridentate N,O,S donor set of the hydrazide compartment versus a rather flexible pentadentate (H2bpamptsc) or tridentate (H2pmptsc) nitrogen-rich chelating side arm. The reaction of the ligand H2bpamptsc with zinc(II) acetate and copper(II) perchlorate yields the heterobinuclear Cu-Zn complex [CuZn(bpamptsc)(mu2,eta1-OAc)(MeCN)](ClO4) (1).
