The synthesis and reactivity of alkyl‐aminosubstitutedmethylenediphosphonates

Reactions of diethyl phosphite with Vilsmeier reagents, RCONR¹R²/POCl₃, afforded various alkylaminosubstitutedmethylenediphosphonates in acceptable yields, which (R = H) were then reacted with aldehydes under the conditions of the Wittig–Horner reaction to furnish vinylphosphonates, and which (R = H) underwent alkylation with alkyl halides to give alkylaminosubstitutedmethylenediposphonates 8 . (Z)‐Vinylphosphonates could be converted to (E)‐isomers in refluxing ethyl acetate.© 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 10: 271–276, 1999

The methylation of 9-methyl-4-methylamino-5H-anthra[1,9,8-bcde]-1,10⁴-dithia-9-azapentalen-5-one takes place at the S₍₁₎, atom and leads to a 2-methyl-7-methylamino-10-methylthio-6-oxo-6H-anthra[9,1-cd]isothiazolium salt, while protonation is directed to the N₍₉₎ atom to give a 5,10-bis(methylamino)-6-oxo-6H-anthra [1,9-cd]dithiolium salt. Depending on their nature, substitution of the hydrogen atom in the 5 or 3 position, reversible addition of a hydroxide ion in the 10b position, demethylation, or opening of the heteroring occurs in the reaction of the anthraisothiazolium cation with nucleophilic reagents.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 256–263, February, 1992.

Preparation of New Wittig Reagents and Their Application to the Synthesis of alpha,beta-Unsaturated Phosphonates

The Wittig reagent [(diethoxyphosphinyl)methylidene]triphenylphosphorane (1b) has been successfully synthesized for the first time via its phosphonium triflate salt (4a), by treating (diethoxyphosphinyl)methyl triflate with triphenylphosphine. The procedure has been applied to the synthesis of other phosphoranes and phosphonium salts. The new Wittig reagents thus synthesized were treated with various aldehydes and an activated ketone, affording the corresponding alpha,beta-unsaturated phosphonates. Triphenylphosphorane 1b and triphenylphosphonium 4a led to both cis and trans isomers with the latter being predominant, while trans isomers were almost exclusively formed when tributyl reagents (1c and 4d) were used.     

Wittig homologation of 2-(chloromethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ol derivatives: a new facile synthesis of substituted 2,3-dihydrobenzoxepine-4-carboxylates

Wittig homologation of 2-(chloromethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ol derivatives 2a–t with (ethoxycarbonylmethylene)triphenylphosphorane provided the 2-oxoethylidene-2,3-dihydrobenzoxepine-4-carboxy-lates 3a–t with Z (cis) selectivity. Various basic catalysts were studied for the reaction of 2-(chloromethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ol 2a with the combination of Wittig reagent to provide compound 3b. The reaction of 2-(chloromethyl)-2H-chromen-2-ol 2a with other Wittig reagents, such as methylene(triphenylene)phosphorane and (1-ethoxycarbonylethylidene)triphenylphosphorane provided ketone derivative 4a rather 2-oxoethylidene derivative 3b. The ketone derivative 4a was reacted with Wittig reagent (ethoxycarbonylmethylene)triphenylphosphorane to give 2,3-dihydrobenzoxepine-4-carboxylate 3b. The present approach is novel, straight forward and being reported for the first time.

As a part of systematic investigation of synthesis and biologically active compounds of thiazolidine (TZD) derivatives containing pyrazole ring system, several new pyrazole–TZD derivatives 8a , 8b , 8c , 8d and 9a , 9b , 9c , 9d have been synthesized.

The results showed that compound 8c possessed growth inhibitory effect of B16F10 cells (IC₅₀ = 27 μM) and compounds 9c , 9d had induction effect on the differentiation of 3T3‐L1 preadipocytes. J.
