Alkylation of pyridine-3,5-dicarboxamide and pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles by radical substitution

Structural modification of NAD(P) model compounds, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxamide ( 1 ), pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile ( 2 ), and 4-methylpyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile ( 3 ), have been explored by the reaction with alkyl radicals such as the 1-adamantyl, tert-butyl, and isopropyl radicals. The alkyl substitutions of compounds 1 , 2 , and 3 with the 1-adamantyl and the tert-butyl radical gave both 2-mono and 2,6-disubstitution products, whereas the reaction of compound 2 with the isopropyl radical gave 2-mono 6c , 2,4-di 7c, 2,6-di 8c , and 2,4,6-trisubstitution 9c products.     

Synthesis of N-unsubstituted and N-methyl derivatives of 4-aryl-2,6-dimethyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles

In the reduction of 2,6-dimethyl-4-arylpyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles or their N-oxides by sodium borohydride, a mixture of 1,2- and 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles is formed. 1,2,6-Trimethyl-4-aryl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles were obtained by reducing the corresponding pyridinium perchlorates or by alkylating 4-aryl-2,6-dimethyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile derivatives by methyl iodide.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 81–85, January, 1987.     

Annulation of pyrrole: application to the synthesis of indolizidine alkaloids

The nucleophilicity of pyrrole has been exploited to rapidly assemble the bicyclic skeleton of the indolizidine alkaloids. The key sequence is the annulation of a second ring onto pyrrole from a γ-lactone and has been exploited in the synthesis of the natural products (±)-monomorine and (±)-indolizidine 209D.     

4-Ferrocenylpyridine- and 4-Ferrocenyl-3-ferrocenylmethyl-3,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles: Multi-Component Synthesis, Structures and Electrochemistry

The reactions of 2-cyano-3-ferrocenylacrylonitrile (1) with malononitrile (2) in a MeOH/H₂O or 2-PrOH/H₂O medium in the presence of Na₂CO₃ afforded 6-alkoxy-2-amino-4-ferrocenylpyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles 3a,b (multi-component condensation) and 6-alkoxy-2-amino-4-ferrocenyl-3-ferrocenylmethyl-3,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles 4a,b (multi-component cyclodimerization). Analogous reactions of 1 with 2 in an MeOH/H₂O medium in the presence of NaOH, piperidine, or morpholine gave compounds 3a, 4a and 2-amino-4-ferrocenyl-6-hydroxy-, 6-piperidino- and 6-morpholinopyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles 3c-e, respectively. The structures of the compounds 3b, 4a and 4b were established by the spectroscopic data and X-ray diffraction analysis. The electrochemical behaviour of compounds 3b, 3d and 4b was investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry.     

Introduction of the pyrazolidine ring into the pyrrole ring of indole

The reaction of indoles with 1-acyl-5-hydroxypyrazolidines under heterogeneous catalysis conditions leads, depending on the structure of indole, to 2- and/or 3-(1-acyl-5-pyrazolidinyl)indoles. Thus, the formation of 2-pyrazolidinylindoles is the results of an unco-substitution at the 3-position of the indole, followed by migration of the pyrazolidine ring.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1207–1213, September, 1990.     

Regioselective reaction of 5,6-dialkyl-2-halopyridine-3,4-dicarbonitriles with ammonia

The reaction of 5,6-dialkyl-2-halopyridine-3,4-dicarbonitriles with alcoholic ammonia under elevated pressure gave 5,6-dialkyl-2-aminopyridine-3,4-dicarbonitriles as a result of nucleophilic replacement of the halogen atom by amino group. 6,7-Dialkyl-4-halo-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyridine-1,3(2H)-diimines were formed in analogous reaction at room temperature in the presence of potassium carbonate.     

Synthesis of the stenine ring system from pyrrole

The skeleton of the stemona alkaloid, stenine, has been synthesized starting from pyrrole, employing an asymmetric organocatalyzed cyclization, Sonogashira coupling, a diastereoselective intramolecular propargylic Barbier reaction, cyclocarbonylation, and diastereoselective alkene reduction. Modulation of the electron-rich nature of the pyrrole nucleus by employing an α-trifluoroacetyl group is essential. The α-trifluoroacetyl group may be rapidly removed under carefully defined, mild conditions.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of 3,5-Diphenyl- 1,2- di（4- chlorophenyl）pyrrole

1 INTRODUCTION The pyrrole ring constitutes a basic heteroaro- matic structure. It is a vital building block for the construction of porphyrins and alkloids[1]. Several substituted pyrroles have potential applications as fungicides and bactericides and as active compo- nents of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs inhi- biting human cyclooxygenase[2, 3]. Besides the clas- sical Knorr’s method, there are a number of poten- tially useful methods for the synthesis of pyrrole he- terocyclic …     

Synthesis of chalcone analogs containing a pyrrole ring

Crotonaldehyde-type condensation in alkaline medium of 2-acetylpyrrole or pyrrole-2-aldehyde with aromatic or heterocyclic aldehydes and methyl ketones gives a number of hitherto undescribed pyrrole analogs of chalcone, and their 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazones are prepared.     

Regioselectivity in the photochemical ring contraction of 4-diazopyrazolidine-3,5-diones to give aza-β-lactams

The photochemical decomposition of unsymmetrically substituted 4-diazopyrazolidine-3,5-diones leads to aza-β-lactams, and provides some indication of the relative migratory aptitude of nitrogen groups in the Wolff rearrangement.     

Incomparably easy migration of functionalized enol substituent in pyrrole ring

Functionalized pyrroleьvь? enols, 2-(1-hydroxy-2.2-dicyanoethenyl)-1-methylpyrroles, at heating (75–135°C) unexpectedly readily rearranged in high yield into 3-isomers. Evidently the migration of the enol fragment involves a mesomeric zwitterion formed as a result of an intra- and intermolecular autoprotonation of the pyrrole ring by the acidic enol hydroxy group. Under similar conditions no migration of the ethenyl moiety occurred in 2-(1-hydroxy-2-carbamoyl-2-cyanoethenyl)-1-methylpyrroles. The quantum-chemical calculations (MP2/6-311G**) show a clear-cut distinction in the relative stability of 2- and 3-isomers of 1H- and 1-methylhydroxyethenylpyrroles: in the former case the 2-isomer is more stable, whereas in the 1-methyl-substituted compound, the 3-isomer.
