Die Oxidation von 3-(1-Nitro-2-oxocycloalkyl)propanal

The Oxidation of 3-(1-Nitro-2-oxocycloalkyl)propanal Oxidation of the title compound 1 with KMnO₄ under neutral conditions led to the corresponding acid 2 , 5-(2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-nitro-5-oxo-2-furyl)pentanoic acid ( 4 ), and 4-oxononadioic acid ( 6 ). On the basis of experimental results the mechanism of the formation of 4 is discussed (Scheme 1). Oxidation of 1 with KMnO₄ under basic conditions gave 6 which was transformed to (E)-4,5-dihydro-5(2′-oxocyclopentyliden)furan-2(3H)-one ( 12 ) with benzene/TsOH (Scheme 3). In contrast to this result the corresponding 4-oxoheptandioic acid ( 22 ) yields 1,6-dioxaspiro[4,4]nonan-2,7-dione ( 23 ) only (Scheme 4).     

Boc-protected 1-(3-oxocycloalkyl)ureas via a one-step Curtius rearrangement: mechanism and scope

1-(3-Oxocyclobutyl) carboxylic acid (4a) was converted into N-Boc-protected 1-(3-oxocyclobutyl) urea (5a), a key intermediate for the preparation of agonists of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5, in one-step when treated with diphenyl phosphoryl azide and triethylamine in tert-butanol. The mechanism of the reaction involves a nucleophilic addition of the in situ generated tert-butyl carbamate to the isocyanate intermediate. This reaction is applicable to other 1-(3-oxocycloalkyl) carboxylic acids but not to linear γ-keto carboxylic acids.

A simple and efficient methodology permitting the halogenation of 2-methylquinolines into 2-(chloromethyl)quinolines or 2-(bromomethyl)quinolines in the tetrabutylammonium iodide and 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-dibromoethane) system has been developed for the first time. The halogenation can be rapidly completed with good to excellent yields and high selectivity under microwave irradiation.     

Reactions of 2-hydroxy-5-(1-adamantyl)benzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde with ethane-1,2-diamine, trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine, and N-(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine

Reactions of 2-hydroxy-5-(1-admantyl)benzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde with ethane-1,2-diamine, transcyclohexane-1,2-diamine, and N-(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine were studied in strongly dilute solution and under conditions of template synthesis in the presence of H₃BO₃. The effects of reaction conditions and initial diamine structure on the cyclocondensation process were determined. Selective [3 + 3]-cyclocondensation of 2-hydroxy-5-(1-admantyl)benzene-1,3-dicarbaldehyde with trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine and [2 + 2]-cyclization with N-(2-aminoethyl)ethane-1,2-diamine were performed in chloroform in the presence of H₃BO₃.

Reactions of 2-pyridylphenylacetonitrile and 1,2-dicyano-1,2-di(phenyl)-1,2-di(2-pyridyl)ethane with titanium(IV), vanadium(IV), chromium(III) and iron(III) chlorides

Summary 2-Pyridylphenylacetonitrile (ppa) is oxidized by iron(III) chloride in dry ethanol to 1,2-dicyano-1,2-di(phenyl)-1,2-(2-pyridyl)ethane (dcppe). When 1,2-dichloroethane or ether are used as solvents, a 31 complex of dcppe with iron trichloride, [(FeCl₃)₃(dcppe)] is obtained.Titanium(IV), vanadium(IV) and chromium(III) chlorides react with ppa and dcppe, giving complexes of general formulae [MCl₄(ppa)] (M = Ti or V), [CrCl₃(ppa)_n] (n = 2 or 3), [(MCl₄)₂(dcppe)] (M = Ti or V) and [CrCl₃(dcppe)].     

Sulfido-bridged dinuclear molybdenum-copper complexes related to the active site of CO dehydrogenase: [(dithiolate)Mo(O)S2Cu(SAr)]2- (dithiolate = 1,2-S2C6H4, 1,2-S2C6H2-3,6-Cl2, 1,2-S2C2H4)

The [MoCu] carbon monoxide dehydrogenase (CODH) is a Cu-containing molybdo-flavoprotein, the active site of which contains a pterin-dithiolene cofactor bound to a sulfido-bridged dinuclear Mo-Cu complex. In this paper, the synthesis and characterization of dinuclear Mo-Cu complexes relevant to the active site of [MoCu]-CODH are described. Reaction of [MoO2S2]2- with CuCN affords the dinuclear complex [O2MoS2Cu(CN)]2- (1), in which the CN- ligand can be replaced with various aryl thiolates to give rise to a series of dinuclear complexes [O2MoS2Cu(SAr)]2- (Ar = Ph (2), o-Tol (3), and p-Tol (4)). An alternative synthesis of complex 2 is the reaction of [MoO2S2]2- with [Cu(SPh)3]2-. Similarly, [O2MoS2Cu(PPh3)]- (5), [O2MoS2Cu(dppe)]- (dppe = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) (6), and [O2MoS2Cu(triphos)]- (triphos = 1,1,1-tris[(diphenylphosphino)methyl]ethane) (7) were prepared from the reactions of [MoO2S2]2- with the Cu(I) phosphine complexes. Treatment of 1, 2, 4, or 5 with dithiols (1,2-(SH)2C6H4, 1,2-(SH)2C6H2-3,6-Cl2, and 1,2-(SH)2C2H4), in acetonitrile, leads to the replacement of a molybdenum-bound oxo ligand to yield [(dithiolate)Mo(O)S2CuL]2- (L = CN, SAr; dithiolate = 1,2-S2C6H4, 1,2-S2C6H2-3,6-Cl2, or 1,2-S2C2H4) (8-13) or [(1,2-S2C6H4)Mo(O)S2Cu(PPh3)]- (14) complexes.     

Stereoselective preparation of (E)-(1,2-difluoro-1,2-ethenediyl) bis[tributylstannane] and stereospecific synthesis of (E)-1,2-difluorostilbenes

[reaction: see text]. The novel bisstannane (E)-(1,2-difluoro-1,2-ethenediyl) bis[tributylstannane] 2 was stereoselectively prepared in a high overall yield through a sequential synthetic route from chlorotrifluoroethylene 1. The synthetic application of this novel bisstannane 2 was exemplified in the Pd(PPh3)4/CuI-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with aryl iodides, yielding (E)-1,2-difluorostilbenes 3 in moderate to high yields.     

1,2-Bis-(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2-ethanediol and 1,4-bis-(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2,3,4-butanetetraol PdCl2 complexes

The 1,2-bis-(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2-ethanediol (EH₂) and 1,4-bis-(2-benzimidazolyl)-1,2,3,4-butanetetraol (TH₄) ligands form 4-coordinate mono- and bi-metallic complexes with PdCl₂, respectively. In Pd(EH₂)Cl₂ the ligand acts as a bidentate through two of the nitrogen atoms. On the other hand, in Pd₂(TH₄)Cl₄ the ligand coordinates to two palladium atoms through both bis-benzimidazole nitrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms of the hydroxy groups, forming two different isomers. The complexes were characterised by analytical data, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, and also by i.r., ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra.     

Synthesis and reactivity of 1,2-bis(chlorodimethylgermyl)carborane and 1,2-bis(bromodimethylstannyl)carborane

The 1,2-bis(chlorogermyl)- (1) and 1,2-bis(bromostannyl)carborane (2) have been prepared by the reaction of dilithio-o-carborane with Me(2)GeCl(2) and Me(2)SnBr(2), respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 are found to be good precursors for the synthesis of a variety of cyclization compounds. The Wurtz-type coupling reaction of 1 and 2 using sodium metal afforded the four-membered digerma compound 3 and five-membered tristanna compound 4, respectively. The salt elimination reactions of 1 and 2 using Li(2)N(t)Bu and Li(2)PC(6)H(5) afforded the cyclic products [structure: see text]. The 1,2-bis(dimethylgermyl)carborane 9 and 1,2-bis(dimethylstannyl)carborane 10 were prepared by the reaction of 1 and 2 with sodium cyanoborohydride. The reactions of 9 and 10 with Pd(PPh(3))(4) afforded the bis(germyl)palladium 12 and bis(stannyl)palladium 13 complexes, respectively.     

Photochromic dihetarylethenes. 10. Photochromic 1,2-bis[2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-thienyl]- and 1,2-bis[2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)benzothiophen-3-yl]ethenes

Dithienylethenes containing the thiophene rings with benzothiazolyl substituents in position 2 were synthesized. 1,2-Bis[2-(benzothiazol-2-yl)benzothiophen-3-yl]hexafluorocyclopentene and 1,2-bis[2,5-di(benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-thienyl]hexafluorocyclopentene possess photochromic properties. The open forms of 1,2-bis(2-benzothiazolylhetaryl)ethenes fluoresce, but introduction of the benzothiazole rings into dihetarylethenes significantly lowers the fatigue resistance of photochromes and favors thermal reversibility.     

Titanium(III) and vanadium(III) chloride complexes with 2-pyridylphenylacetonitrile and 1,2-dicyano-1,2-diphenyl-1,2-di(2′-pyridyl)ethane

Summary 2-Pyridylphenylacetonitrile (ppa) and 1,2-dicyano-1,2-diphenyl-1,2-di(2-pyridyl)ethane (dcppe) react with titanium(III) and vanadium(III) chlorides yielding complexes of formulae: [TiCl₃(ppa)₂], [TiCl₃(ppa)₃], [VCl₃(ppa)], [TiCl₃(dcppe)] and [(VCl₃)₂(dcppe)]. The results obtained suggest pentacoordinated structures for complexes, except for [TiCl₃(ppa)₃] where an hexacoordinated stereochemistry around the metal is proposed.     

Syntheses of optically active tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazol-2-ones and hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2(3H)-ones

The reactions of (2S)-2-amino-2-substituted-N-(4-nitrophenyl)acetamides 16a-c, succindialdehyde (13), and benzotriazole afforded enantiopure (3S,5R,7aR)-5-(1H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-yl)-3-substituted-1-(4-nitrophenyl)tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazol-2-ones 17a-c, which were converted by sodium borohydride into (3S,7aR)-3-substituted-1-(4-nitrophenyl)tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazol-2-ones 18a-c. Chiral (2S)-2-amino-2-substituted-N-(4-methylphenyl)acetamides 12a-d, easily prepared in two steps from N-Boc-alpha-amino acids 10a-d, similarly reacted with glutaraldehyde (20) and benzotriazole to generate 5-benzotriazolyl-3-substituted-hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2(3H)-ones 21a-d, which were converted by sodium borohydride directly into optically active 3-substituted-hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2(3H)-ones 22a-d.     

Unexpected formation of ruthenium(II) hydrides from a reactive dianiline precursor and 1,2-(Ph2P)2-1,2-closo-C2B10H10

Reaction of the new precursor cis, trans-Ru(cod)(anln)2Cl2 with the diphosphine 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane (o-dppc) unexpectedly results in two new ruthenium(II) hydrides, trans-Ru(o-dppc) 2(H)Cl and the neutral, five-coordinate complex Ru(o-dppc)(nido-dppc)(H), depending upon the reaction conditions [anln is aniline and nido-dppc is 7,8-(Ph2P)2C2B9H10(-)]. Chloride abstraction from trans-Ru(o-dppc)2(H)Cl leads to another five-coordinate hydride, [Ru(o-dppc)2(H)](+), which is isolated as either a triflate or hexafluorophosphate salt. On the basis of labeling and reactivity studies, the source of the hydride appears to be the cod ligand.     

Reactions of (1R,2S)-1,2-di(2-furyl)-1,2-di(3-guaiazulenyl)ethane and (1R,2S)-1,2-di(3-guaiazulenyl)-1,2-di(2-thienyl)ethane with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) in benzene: comparative studies on the products and their spectroscopic properties

Comparative studies on the above reactions as well as the spectroscopic properties of the unique products 3 and 4, possessing interesting molecular structures, are reported and, further, a plausible reaction pathway for the formation of these products is described.     

Enantiopure vic-amino alcohols and vic-diamines from (1R,2S)-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydronaphthalene

(1S,2S)-2-Hydroxy-1-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, (1R,2R)-1-hydroxy-2-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, (1S,2R)-1,2-diamino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, (2R,3S)-2-hydroxy-3-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and (2S,3S)-2,3-diammino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene have been synthesized from (1R,2S)-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-dihydronaphthalene. The latter was obtained, using a protocol reported in a previous paper, from naphthalene using an Escherichia coli recombinant strain containing the naphthalene dioxygenase gene cloned from Pseudomonas fluorescens N3.

2,3-Dichloroquinoxaline and some of its derivatives have been reacted with malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate to yield a variety of 3-chloro-2-(cyanomethylene)- 1,2-dihydroquinoxaline derivatives. The reaction of 3-chloro-2-(dicyanomethylene)-1,2- dihydroquinoxaline (2e) with pyridine and its methyl derivatives led to the zwitterionic structures 6a-6c. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were assigned by spectroscopic data and elemental analyses.     

Diastereo- and enantioselective synthesis of (E)-2-Methyl-1,2-syn- and (E)-2-Methyl-1,2-anti-3-pentenediols via allenylboronate kinetic resolution with ((d)Ipc)2BH and aldehyde allylboration

Enantioselective hydroboration of racemic allenylboronate (±)-1 with 0.48 equiv of ((d)Ipc)(2)BH at -25 °C proceeds with efficient kinetic resolution and provides allylborane (R)-Z-4. When heated to 95 °C, allylborane (R)-Z-4 isomerizes to the thermodynamically more stable allylborane isomer (S)-E-7. Subsequent allylboration of aldehydes with (R)-Z-4 or (S)-E-7 at -78 °C followed by oxidative workup provides 1,2-syn- or 1,2-anti-diols, 2 or 3, respectively, in 87-94% ee.
