Summary. A series of 1,5-disubstituted 3-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-2H-pyran-3-yl)-2-pyrazolines were synthesized by the reaction of α,β-unsaturated ketones derived from dehydroacetic acid and hydrazine in hot acetic acid or propionic acid. The structures of all new compounds were elucidated by microanalyses, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, IR, and mass spectroscopic measurements.     

Reaction of the radical pair NO2* and CO3*- with 2-[6-(4'-amino)phenoxy-3H-xanthen-3-on-9-yl]benzoic acid (APF)

The fluorogenic indicator 2-[6-(4'-amino)phenoxy-3H-xanthen-3-on-9-yl]benzoic acid (APF) is used widely to detect and measure reactive nitrogen and oxygen species such as peroxynitrite, ONOO-, both in vivo and in vitro. We present in this work the results of a combined computational and experimental study to provide insights into the mechanism of the reaction of APF with the radical products of ONOO- reaction with CO2, namely NO2* and CO3*-. The experimental study on the inhibition of APF oxidation by HCO3- suggests that a direct reaction of APF with nitrosoperoxycarbonate, ONOOCO2-, is unlikely. The mechanism of APF action on NO2* and CO3*- was investigated using gas-phase and solvent modeled calculations at the MPW1K/6-311+G(d)//MPW1K/6-31G(d) level of theory. Our computational results suggest that two-electron oxidation of APF takes place in two rapid one-electron oxidation steps, the first being a proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) between APF and NO2*, followed by addition of CO3*- and subsequent decomposition of the adduct to yield fluorescein.     

Synthesis and application of ethyl 3-(4-dialkylaminophenyl)-2-(quinoxalin-3(4H)-on-2-yl)propenoates and related products

Acid-catalyzed reactions of 1- and 3-(α-hydroxybenzyl)indolizines

Treatment of 1-(α-hydroxybenzyl)- and 3-(α-hydroxybenzyl)indolizines with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane gave phenylbis(α-indolizinyl)methanes, bis[α-(indolizinyl)benzyl] ethers and indolizines, depending upon the presence or absence of the substituent at the 2- or 5-position and the reaction conditions used.     

Synthesis of optically active 2-alkoxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones. Their use as dienophiles in Diels-Alder cycloadditions.

Optically active 2-alkoxy-2H-pyran-3(6H)-ones (4a-d) were synthesized in one step by the tin(IV) chloride-promoted glycosylation and rearrangement of the 2-acetoxy-3,4-di-O-acetyl-D-xylal (3) prepared from D-xylose (1). The absolute configuration of the new stereocenter at C-2 was determined by chemical transformation of the dihydropyranones 4a and 4b into the known alkyl pentopyranosides (7a and 7b, respectively). Also, from (1)H NMR experiments using a chiral ytterbium shift reagent, the enantiomeric excesses for 4a (>86%) and 4b (>77%) were established. Enantiomerically pure 4c and 4d were obtained by reaction of 3 with chiral 2-octanol (R and S, respectively). Dihydropyranones 4a-d were employed as dienophiles in Diels-Alder cycloadditions with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene and butadiene. Under thermal conditions, only moderate yields (approximately 50%) of cycloadducts 9a-c and 10a were respectively obtained with good diastereofacial selectivity (>80%). Optimized Lewis acid promoted cycloadditions led to 9a-d and 10a,c in higher yields (approximately 80%) and with higher diastereoselectivities (>94%). The major products were formed by approach of the dienes from the less hindered face of the dihydropyranones, and the minor products (such as 11a) were formed by addition from the opposite side. Furthermore, cycloadduct 9a was stable in an alkaline solution, whereas 11a underwent epimerization under the same conditions.

5-(Trimethylstannyl)-2H-pyran-2-one and 3-(Trimethylstannyl)-2H-pyran-2-one: New 2H-Pyran-2-one Synthons

5-(Trimethylstannyl)-2H-pyran-2-one (11) and 3-(trimethylstannyl)-2H-pyran-2-one (30), readily prepared from the corresponding bromo-2H-pyran-2-ones, undergo Pd(0)-catalyzed coupling reactions with a variety of enol triflates to give 5- and 3- substituted 2H-pyran-2-ones, respectively. This reaction is applicable to the enol triflates of 14beta-hydroxy-17-ketosteroids, and therefore may prove useful in convergent syntheses of lucibufagins and bufadienolides.

The synthesis of 3-(2-(5-(benzylideneamino)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives was achieved through a one-pot, four-component reaction involving condensation of 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one, thiosemicarbazide, phenacylcyanaide, and various aryl aldehydes in dry alcohol and few drops of acetic acid under reflux condition. This four-component reaction has some advantages such as ease of handling, good yields, and easy workup. All structures of newly prepared compounds were confirmed by analytical and spectral data.
