Products from furans. XV. Synthesis of novel tyramine derivatives via 6-hydroxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones

Furan chemistry was utilized for the synthesis of several novel tyramine derivatives. Thus 2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones were used as keystone intermediates for the preparation of novel α,β-disubstituted tyramine derivatives. Furthermore by the same approach tyramine was derivatized with a molecule of GABA.     

Remarkable O(2)-effect in 1,4-additions of diethylzinc to 6-acyloxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones and 6-alkoxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones

Under the influence of air, a facile 1,4-addition of diethylzinc to acyloxypyranones and alkoxypyranones 1 takes place. Reaction of diethylzinc with molecular oxygen provides EtOOZnEt, which catalyzes the addition of diethylzinc.     

Synthesis and structures of 6-methyl-1-(2-R-phenyl)-dihydropyrimidine-2,4-dione derivatives

N-Aryl--methyl--alanines were synthesized by the reaction of aromatic amines with crotonic acid. The products were converted to dihydropyrimidine-2,4-dione derivatives. Alkylation, acylotion, and oximation of 1-arylpyrimidine-2,4-diones were carried out. Conformational analysis of the compounds obtained was carried out by dynamic NMR methods.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1096–1106, August, 1990.

Aminomethylation of 6-methyl-1-(thietan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione

Mannich reactions of 6-methyl-1-(thietan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione with formaldehyde and morpholine, piperidine, N-methylpiperazine, and diethylamine gave the corresponding 5-aminomethylsubstituted pyrimidine derivatives. The title compound reacted with excess piperazine to form 3,5-bis-(piperazin-1-yl) derivative, while its reaction with an equimolar amount of piperazine afforded 5,5′-(piperazin-1,4-diylbismethylene)bis[6-methyl-1-(thietan-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione].

Microbial reduction of 2-(6-m-methoxyphenyl-3-oxohexyl)-2,4-dimethylcyclopenta-1,3-dione with Schizosaccharomyces pombe (NRRL Y-164)

A mixture of cis- and trans-2-(6-m-methoxyphenyl-3-oxohexyl)-2,4-dimethylcyclopenta-1,3-dione (±)-10 was synthesized and incubated with Schizosaccharomyces pombe (NRRL Y-164) to give (+)-11, (+)-12, (−)-13, and (−)-14 in 19, 13, 22, and 16% yields, respectively. Chromic acid oxidation of these microbiologically reduced products gave (−)-10a, (+)-10b, (+)-10a, and (−)-10b, respectively.     

Synthesis of 1,3-Bis[3-X-2-(X-acetoxy)propyl]-6-methyl- 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-diones

A procedure was developed for synthesizing nitrogen-and-sulfur-containing pyrimidine derivatives by reactions of 1,3-bis(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl)-6-methyluracil with 1-butanethiol and chloroacetyl chloride, followed by treatment of the resulting 1,3-bis[3-chloro-2-(chloroacetoxy)propyl]-6-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione with 1-butanethiol, morpholine, and piperidine. Oxidation of the sulfur-containing products with NaIO₄ gave the corresponding sulfoxides.     

Acid-catalysed cyclisation of 2-methyl-2[3-(2,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methoxypent-2-enyl]-cyclopentane-1,3-dione: Structure of a novel product

Acid-catalysed reaction of the title compound (3a) with boiling ethanolic HCl afforded a complex mixture of compounds from which a crystalline keto alcohol was isolated. On the basis of spectral data (UV, IR, NMR and MS), this keto alcohol was assigned the tricyclodecane structure 7a. Acetylation of the keto alcohol followed by hydrogenation gave the dihydro keto acetate 8b which was brominated using dioxane dibromide to give the bromo compound 8c. X-ray crystal structure analysis of the bromo compound confirmed the structure of this compound as well as the parent keto alcohol 7a.
