The preparation and the physico-chemical characterization of new heterocyclic organic nitrates containing 1,3-benzoxazine-2,4-dione, 1,3-benzoxazine-2-thion-4-one, 1,3-benzothiazine-2,4-dione and quinazo-line-2,4-dione moieties, are reported.     

Mechanistic studies in the reaction of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with 2,5-dimethyl-2,4-hexadiene

Secondary isotope effect measurements of methanol adducts from the reaction of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with 2,5-dimethyl-2,4-hexadiene, support the formation of an aziridinium imide intermediate rather than an open dipolar intermediate in the rate determining step.     

Reactions of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with 2-pyrazolines

4-Phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) acts as an efficient Michael acceptor in reactions with 1-unsubstituted 2-pyrazolines, giving substituted (3,5-dioxo-4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-idin-1-yl)-1-pyrazolines in quantitative yields. Through elimination of molecular nitrogen, the latter are easily transformed into the corresponding cyclopropanes. A reaction of methyl 5-methyl-2-pyrazoline-5-carboxylate with a twofold excess of PTAD leads to an intermediate bisadduct, which undergoes dediazotization to form a 1,3,5-triazabicyclo[3.3.0]octane-2,4-dione derivative. 1-Substituted 2-pyrazolines also add to PTAD with the exception that the 2-pyrazoline structure is retained in the product because of the migration of the C(3)H proton to PTAD.     

Spontaneous alternating copolymerization of isobutoxyallene with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione

The spontaneous copolymerization of isobutoxyallene ( 1 ) with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione ( 2 ) was carried out to afford a copolymer with a number-average molecular weight of 5900–10,300. The copolymer consisted of a 2,3-polymerization unit of 1 and a  NN polymerization unit of 2 , maintaining an alternating character regardless of the monomer feed ratio. The corresponding copolymerization of 1 with 2 in the presence of methanol afforded the adduct of the compounds without the polymer, indicating the generation of a zwitterion of 1 and 2 . © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Pyrazolidine-3,5-dione angiotensin-II receptor antagonists

The crystal structures of three angiotensin-II receptor antagonists involving different spacer groups (CO, CONH and NHCO) between the aryl rings are presented, namely 2-{4-[(3-butyl-1,4-dioxo-2,3-di­aza­spiro­[4.4]­non-2-yl)­methyl]­benzoyl}benzoic acid, C₂₆H₂₈N₂O₅, (I), 2-{4-[(3-butyl-1,4-dioxo-2,3-di­aza­spiro­[4.4]­non-2-yl)­methyl]­benz­amido}benzoic acid, C₂₆H₂₉N₃O₅, (II), and 2-{4-[(3-butyl-1,4-dioxo-2,3-di­azaspiro­[4.4]­non-2-yl)­methyl]­anilino­carbonyl}benzoic acid monohydrate, C₂₆H₂₉N₃O₅·H₂O, (III). The aryl rings of (II) are almost coplanar, in contrast with compounds (I) and (III). The conformation of (II) is induced by an intramolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bond between the amide and carboxyl­ic acid groups.     

The oxidation of hydrazine derivatives with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione

The oxidation of benzophenone hydrazone with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTD) yields benzophenone azine which is also formed from the reaction of the hydrazone with the ylid obtained from diphenyldiazomethane and PTD; the ylid forms a stable addition product with ethanol. With PTD, carbohydrazides are converted to 1,2-diacylhydrazines and small amounts of the corresponding azides; in contrast, p-toluenesulfonylhydrazine yields p-toluenesulfinic acid, isolated as its adduct with PTD, 1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-4-phenylurazole. Possible mechanisms to rationalize the formation of these products are discussed.     

Reactions of 4-alkylidene (arylidene)-1-phenylpyrazolidine-3,5-dione

Reactions of 4-alkylidene(arylidene)-1-phenylpyrazolidine-3,5-dione with oxidizing (chromium trioxide/acetic acid) as well as with reducing (sodium borohydride/methanol) agents were carried out. Phenylhydrazine reacted with 4-arylidene-1-phenylpyrazolidine-3,5-diones via fission of exo C=C bond to give 1-phenylpyrazolidine-3,5-dione and the corresponding aryl hydrazones. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1335–1341, September, 2007.
