A library of 3-aryl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-5-carboxamides

Parallel solution phase methods for the preparation of a 72-membered 3-aryl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-5-carboxamide library is reported. The reaction order (nitrile oxide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition followed by amide formation, or vice versa) was investigated both experimentally and computationally to determine which route would result in the highest yields, minimize purification efforts, and give higher 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition regioselectivity. Automated preparative HPLC was used to purify the final products to >or=90% purity on a 10+ mg scale.     

Convenient synthesis of ethyl 4-aryl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-carboxylates and 4-aryl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2H-pyran-2-ones: novel highly reactive CF3-containing building blocks

An expedient synthesis of a series of 2-pyrones, bearing a CF 3 group at the 6-position and aryl group at position 4, from readily available aryl-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-diones, PCl 5, and sodium diethyl malonate is described.     

Reactions of Ethyl 2-Amino-5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)- 4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates and 2-Amino-5-(2-aryl- 2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carbonitriles with Alcohols

Ethyl 2-amino-5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates and 2-amino- 5-(2-aryl-2-oxoethylidene)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carbonitriles reacted with alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of concentrated aqueous HCl to give the corresponding 5-alkoxy-2-amino-5-(2-aryl-2- oxoethyl)-4-oxo-1H-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid derivatives. A probable reaction mechanism was proposed on the basis B3LYP/6-311G(d) quantum chemical calculations.     

Synthesis of 3-acetyl-4-amino-6-arylpyran-2-ones and ethyl 7-aryl-4,5(1H,5H )-dioxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylates

The reactions of aroylacetonitriles with the nickel chelate of ethyl acetoacetate afforded new block heterocyclic reagents, viz., 3-acetyl-4-amino-6-arylpyran-2-ones. The reactions of the latter with diethyl oxalate gave rise to ethyl 7-aryl-4,5(1H,5H)-dioxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylates.     

Synthesis of ethyl 4,5-bis(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-3-furoate

Preparative procedure for 4,5-bis(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-3-furoate from 4-chloromethyl-3-furoate is developed. It includes substitution of chlorine with iodine, phosphorylation by means of the Arbuzov reaction, chloromethylation of 4-(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-3-furoate in the position 5 of the furan ring, substitution of chlorine with iodine in the obtained chloromethyl derivative, and repeated phosphorylation with triethyl phosphite. It was found that ethyl 4-(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-5(chloromethyl)-3-furoate reacts with sodium diethyl phosphite by two pathways. Besides usual nucleophilic substitution leading to phosphonate, transfer of the reaction center in the position 2 of the furan ring takes place. The ambident diethylphosphite anion in this case reacts at the oxygen to give tertiary phosphite. The latter is oxidized with the air oxygen to form ethyl 2-(diethoxyphosphoryloxy)-4-(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-5-methyl-3-furoate. Unlike that analogous iodomethyl phosphonate is phosphorylated selectively under the conditions of the Arbuzov reaction.     

Synthesis and properties of ethyl 1-aryl-5-methyl-4-[1-(phenylhydrazinylidene)ethyl]-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazole-3-carboxylates

Ethyl 1-aryl-4-acetyl-5-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates reacted with phenylhydrazine to give the corresponding hydrazones, ethyl 1-aryl-5-methyl-4-[1-(phenylhydrazinylidene)ethyl]-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylates, which were converted to ethyl 1′-aryl-4-formyl-5′-methyl-1-phenyl-1H,1′H-3,4′-bipyrazole-3′-carboxylates by treatment with the Vilsmeier–Haack reagent. No indole derivatives were formed from the same hydrazones under the Fischer reaction conditions, but cyclization to 2-aryl-3,4-dimethyl-6-phenyl-2,6-dihydro-7H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyridazin-7-ones was observed.     

Synthesis, antibacterial and antifungal activities of 3-aryl-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-4,5-dihydropyrazole-1-carbothioamide derivatives

A new series of 3-aryl-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1-thiocarbamoyl-2-pyrazoline derivatives (4a-j) were prepared by the reaction of azachalcons 3a-j with thiosemicarbazide in ethanolic sodium hydroxide. The structure of synthesized compounds were confirmed by ¹H NMR and Mass spectral data. Their antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli (CTP 7624), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Staphylococcus epidermidis (ATCC 12229), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 9027), Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 1156) and Micrococcus luteus (ATCC 9341) were investigated. Antifungal activity of compounds against Candida albicans and Candida globrata were found to be inactive. Compounds 4a-j were also evaluated for antituberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H ₃₇ Rv (ATCC 27294) in BACTEC 12B using a broth microdilution assay and Microplate Alamar Blue Assay (MABA). The preliminary results showed that compounds 4e, 4d and 4g had 87%, 93% and 92% inhibitory effect respectively.     

Synthesis of ethyl 3-phenyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)isoxazole-5-carboxylate via regioselective dipolar cycloaddition

Efforts to prepare ethyl 3-phenyl-4-(trifluoromethyl)isoxazole-5-carboxylate (1) by developing a regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between phenyl nitrile oxide and various 4,4,4-trifluoromethyl crotonates are described. The substitution at the C2-position of crotonate dipolarophile 4 significantly influenced the regiochemistry and yield of the cycloaddition. Enol and enol ether-based crotonates underwent regioselective cycloadditions with phenyl nitrile oxide to provide 4-trifluoromethyl isoxazoles in good yields.     

Synthesis of 1-aryl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids and esters

Ethyl 1-aryl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates 2 were prepared by the condensation of arylhydrazines with ethyl 3-ethoxy-2-(trifluoroacetyl)-2-propenoate (1a) at low temperature. The corresponding acids were also synthesized. X-ray diffraction analysis of an amide derivative 4 verified the position of the trifluoromethyl group on the pyrazole ring.

Enzymatic resolution of (±)-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester and its transformations into polyfunctionalised amino acids and dipeptides

Enantiomerically pure (5R)-(?)-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester was obtained via enzymatic resolution of the corresponding racemic mixture using a lipase from hog pancreas (PPL). The following reduction of the ester group to the corresponding alcohol and the oxidation of the latter led to (5R)-(?)-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazole-3-carbaldehyde, and the reaction between this and Schöllkopf’s reagent, (2R)-(+)-2,5-dihydro-3,6-dimethoxy-2-isopropylpyrazine, gave mixtures of adducts with a good syn/anti ratio. The steric configurations of the major diastereoisomer were assigned on the basis of spectroscopic data and X-ray analysis. The subsequent controlled hydrolysis of the pyrazine ring led to β-(5-phenyl-4,5-dihydroisoxazol-3-yl)-serine methyl esters and the corresponding dipeptides with (R)-valine. Finally, reductive cleavage of the 4,5-dihydroisoxazole ring under hydrolytic conditions made it possible to obtain the corresponding polyfunctionalised dipeptides.     

Synthesis of 1-aryl-3-(3-pyrrolyl)-5-oxopyrazoles

1-Aryl-3-(2,4-dimethyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-pyrrolyl)-5-oxopyrazoles were obtained by condensation of ethyl -(2,4-dimethyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-pyrrolyl)--ketopropionate with arylhydrazines. Electron-donor substituants in the aromatic ring of the arylhydrazines accelerate the cyclization of the intermediate hydrazones, whereas electron-acceptor substituents hinder cyclization.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1076–1081, August, 1983.
