Stereoselective synthesis and biological activities of O‐(E)‐1‐{1‐[(6‐chloropyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐5‐methyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl}ethyleneamino‐O‐ethyl‐O‐arylphosphorothioates

To find novel lead compounds having high insecticidal activity, a series of phosphorothioate derivatives containing 1,2,3‐triazole and pyridine rings were synthesized by the reaction of 1‐{1‐[(6‐chloropyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]‐5‐methyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl}ethanone oxime with phosphorochloridothioates. Their structures were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, ³¹P NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analyses. The structure of 6c was determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction, which is thermodynamically stable E isomer. The results of preliminary bioassay indicate that some title compounds possess insecticidal activity to some extent. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new convenient way to synthesize 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl urea derivatives under microwave irradiation

A simple and efficient method was developed for the synthesis of 1‐(substituted)‐3‐(5‐(substituted)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl) ureas from heterocyclic amino compounds and phenyl‐5‐(pyridine‐3‐yl)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐ylcarbamate( 2 ) or phenyl‐5‐(trifluoro‐methyl)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐ylcarbamate( 5 ) under solvent conditions using microwave irradiation. The products were obtained in satisfactory yield as we expected. The reactions can be realized by conventional heating, but we find that the condition of microwave is better according to the reaction time. New 1‐(substituted)‐3‐(5‐(substituted)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐yl) urea derivatives are reported. The products were characterized by ¹H NMR, ESI‐MS, and Elemental analysis.

Synthesis of 5‐methyl‐4‐oxo‐2‐(coumarin‐3‐yl)‐N‐aryl‐3,4‐dihydrothieno[2,3‐d]‐pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamides

Possible approaches to synthesis of 5‐methyl‐4‐oxo‐2‐(coumarin‐3‐yl)‐N‐aryl‐3,4‐dihydrothieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamides 4 have been discussed.

A series of triorganotin (4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl)benzoates have been synthesized by the reaction of 4‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl)benzoic acid and 3‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl)benzoic acid with (R₃Sn)₂O (R = Et, n‐Bu and Ph) or R′₃SnOH (R′ = p‐tolyl and cyclohexyl). The molecular structure of tri(p‐tolyl)tin 3‐(4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐4‐yl)benzoate determined by X‐ray crystallography displays that the tin atom adopts a five‐coordinate distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry with the carboxyl oxygen atom and the nitrogen atom on 1‐position of triazole ring occupying the apical position. Moreover, this complex forms a polymeric chain by the intermolecular Sn–N interactions. All these complexes show good antifungal activities in vitro against Alternaria solani, Cercospora arachidicola, Gibberella zeae, Physalospora piricola, and Botrytis cinerea. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Novel bis(imidazole‐2‐thion‐4‐yl)‐ phosphanes ( 2a–d ) were synthesized via lithiation of the precursor imidazole‐2‐thiones followed by the phosphanylation reaction. Oxidation of bis(imidazole‐2‐thion‐4‐yl)phosphane 2b–d with elemental sulfur and selenium led selectively and in good yields to the P‐thio ( 3b–d ) and P‐seleno ( 4c ) derivatives of bis(imidazole‐2‐thion‐4‐yl)phosphanes, respectively. The treatment of 2a,c with phosphorus trichloride gives the corresponding P‐chloro derivatives 5a,c .

Some new compounds (E)‐3‐aryl‐1‐(5‐methyl‐1‐p‐tolyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐prop‐2‐en‐1‐ones 5a–e were prepared by 1‐(5‐methyl‐1‐p‐tolyl‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐ethanone and various aromatic aldehydes.

NMR study of the coordinating behavior of 2,6‐bis(benzimidazol‐2′‐yl)pyridine

The coordination sites of 2,6‐bis(benzimidazol‐2′‐yl)pyridine ( 1 ) toward protons and the diamagnetic metal ions Li⁺, Na⁺, and Co³⁺ were investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Variable temperature ¹H and ¹³C NMR experiments were performed on 1 in order to evaluate the tautomeric equilibrium and hydrogen bonding. Imidazole dicoordinated aromatic nitrogen atoms were protonated by trichloroacetic acid and the three N‐dicoordinated atoms by fuming H₂SO₄. Reactions of the ligand 1 and benzimidazole 2 with metallic sodium or LiH afforded anionic species; the alkali metal ions appeared solvated by THF, but not by the ligands 1 or 2 . In contrast, reaction of 1 with Co(III) produces the stable cation [Co( 1 ‐H)₂]⁺ with cobalt ion coordinated by two molecules of the monodeprotonated ligand. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Compound (I) presents a distorted rectangular centrosymmetric Zn₂L₂ ring (dimensions 9.56 × 7.06 Å), where each Zn^II centre lies in a {ZnN₂O₄} coordination environment. These binuclear zinc metallocycles are linked into a two‐dimensional network through nonclassical C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The resulting sheets lie parallel to the ac plane. Compound (II), which crystallizes as a nonmerohedral twin, is a coordination polymer with double chains of Cu^II centres linked by bridging L ligands, propagating parallel to the crystallographic a axis. The Cu^II centres adopt a distorted square‐pyramidal CuN₄O coordination environment with apical O atoms. The chains in (II) are interlinked via two kinds of π–π stacking interactions along [01]. In addition, the structure of (II) contains channels parallel to the crystallographic a direction. The guest components in these channels consist of dichloromethane and acetonitrile solvent molecules and uncoordinated nitrate anions.     

Stereoselective synthesis of (2E) 3‐amino‐2‐(1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl)acrylate and symmetric bisacrylates by transamination reactions

A range of various amines 2(a–i) was tested in transamination reactions using ethyl 2‐(1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐yl)‐3‐dimethylamino‐acrylate 1a.

Ferromagnetic Interactions in a 1D Alternating Linear Chain of π‐Stacked 1,3‐Diphenyl‐7‐(thien‐2‐yl)‐1,4‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐benzotriazin‐4‐yl Radicals

X‐ray studies show that 1,3‐diphenyl‐7‐(thien‐2‐yl)‐1,4‐dihydro‐1,2,4‐benzotriazin‐4‐yl ( 6 ) adopts a distorted, slipped π‐stacked structure of centrosymmetric dimers with alternate short and long interplanar distances (3.48 and 3.52 Å). Cyclic voltammograms of 7‐(thien‐2‐yl)benzotriazin‐4‐yl 6 show two fully reversible waves that correspond to the ?1/0 and 0/+1 processes. EPR and DFT studies on radical 6 indicate that the spin density is mainly delocalized over the triazinyl fragment. Magnetic susceptibility measurements show that radical 6 obeys Curie–Weiss behavior in the 5–300 K region with C=0.378 emu K mol^?1 and θ=+4.72 K, which is consistent with ferromagnetic interactions between S=1/2 radicals. Fitting the magnetic susceptibility revealed the behavior is consistent with an alternating ferromagnetic chain (g=2.0071, J₁=+7.12 cm^?1, J₂=+1.28 cm^?1).
