Sigma-complex formation and oxidative nucleophilic aromatic substitution in 4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles

The feasibility of carrying out nucleophilic displacement of hydrogen from highly electron-deficient heteroaromatics has been addressed through a detailed investigation of the interaction of a series of nitrobenzofuroxans 3a-i and two related heterocycles 5 and 6, with the 2-nitropropenide anion. Although this series corresponds to a large modulation in the electrophilic properties of the six-membered ring, all reactions first lead to the quantitative formation of the sigma-adducts C-3a-i, C-5 and C-6 arising from covalent addition of the nucleophile to the C-7 carbon. With the exception of the 4-aza substituted member C-5, all the adducts have been isolated as pure and very stable alkali salts. Measurements of the oxidation potentials by cyclic voltammetry reveal that the ease of subsequent hydrogen substitution at carbon-7 strongly decreases with increasing electron deficient character of the six-membered ring. The measured E0 values are in the range 0.5-0.6 V (vs. SCE) for the 4-nitro-benzofuroxan and -benzofurazan adducts (C-3e, C-3i) but they go up to 1.20-1.33 V for the 4,6-dinitro- and 4-nitro-6-trifluoromethanesulfonylbenzofuroxan adducts (C-3a,d) in acetonitrile. Consistently with these E0 values, only very powerful oxidants such as the Ce4+/Ce3+ or the MnO4-/Mn2+ couples can successfully oxidize the adducts leading to the expected substitution products in moderate to good yields (35-72%). Interestingly, the rearomatization of the 4-nitro substituted benzofuroxan adducts proceeds with a partial Boulton-Katritzky rearrangement of the resulting products. Another noteworthy result is that the 4-nitrobenzofuroxan and 4-nitrobenzofurazan molecules suffer competitive addition of the (CH3)2C-NO2- anion to the 5- and 7- positions under some experimental conditions. This represents the first well-defined example of isomeric addition of a carbon nucleophile to these heterocycles.     

Syntheses and characterizations of 4-(3,17beta-dihydroxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-6alpha- and 6beta-yl)amino-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles as fluorescent probes.

4-(3,17Beta-dihydroxyestra-1,3,5(10)-trien-6alpha- and 6beta-yl)amino-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles have been synthesized and characterized as fluorescent probes for use in a receptor assay and/or a homogeneous immunoassay for estradiol. The fluorescence intensities are strongly dependent upon the solvent polarity used. The intensities in water were reduced to less than 1% of those in ethyl acetate, and a blue shift was also observed in polar solvents. The quenched fluorescence in aqueous solution was recovered by adding bovine serum albumin or an anti-estradiol antibody. Adding intact estradiol inhibited the fluorescence recovered by the antibody.

In the photochemical and thermal decomposition of diazonium derivatives of 1-aryloxy- and 1-arylthio-2-aminoanthraquinones in CH ₃ COOH and dioxane, high yields of intramolecular arylation products — anthra-[2, 1-d]-4-tert-butylbenzo-[b]-furan-and anthra-[2, 1-d]-4-tert-butylbenzo-[b]-thiophene-8,13-diones — are formed. It was established that 2-azo derivatives of 1-aryloxy- and 1-acyloxyanthraquinones synthesized on the basis of the diazonium salts are stable under photolysis conditions.Novosibirsk Institute of Organic Chemistry, Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk 630090.

Precolumn fluorescence tagging reagent for carboxylic acids in high-performance liquid chromatography: 4-substituted-7-aminoalkylamino-2,1,3-benzoxadiazoles.

Four new 2,1,3-benzoxadiazole amine reagents having different functional groups at the 4- and 7-positions, [4-nitro-7-N-piperazino-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-PZ), 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulphonyl)-7-N-piperazino-2,1,3-benzoxad iazole (DBD-PZ), 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulphonyl)-7-N-cadaverino-2,1,3-benzoxad iazole (DBD-CD) and ammonium 7-N-piperazino-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole-4-sulphonate (SBD-PZ)] were synthesized as fluorogenic tagging reagents for carboxylic acids in high-performance liquid chromatography. The reagents, except SBD-PZ, reacted with carboxylic acid at room temperature in the presence of activation agents to produce fluorescent adducts. The maximum wavelengths of arachidic acid tagged with DBD-PZ, DBD-CD and NBD-PZ were 569 nm (excitation, 440 nm), 561 nm (excitation, 437 nm) and 541 nm (excitation, 470 nm), respectively. Among various activation agents tested [diethyl phosphorocyanidate (DEPC), diphenyl phosphoroyl azide (DPPA), 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC)-pyridine, 2.2'-dipyridyl disulphide-triphenylphosphine (Mukaiyama A) and 2-chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide-triethylamine (Mukaiyama B)], DEPC and Mukaiyama A were more effective than the others. When the piperazino reagents (DBD-PZ and NBD-PZ) were used as the tagging reagents, the derivatization reaction in the presence of Mukaiyama A was faster than that in the presence of DEPC. Although the reaction in the presence of Mukaiyama A was completed after 30 min, an unknown peak derived from the activation agent appeared on the chromatograms. The fluorescence peak intensities were compared in the presence of DEPC. The order of the fluorescence peak areas obtained after reaction for 6 h in the presence of DEPC was DBD-PZ greater than DBD-CD greater than NBD-PZ. Thirteen saturated free fatty acids (FFAs) derivatized with DBD-PZ (or DBD-CD) and DEPC (or Mukaiyama A) in acetonitrile were separated completely by linear gradient elution on a reversed-phase ODS column. Eight drugs (ibuprofen, indomethacin, dinoprost, prostaglandin E1, dehydrocholic acid, ursodesoxycholic acid, hydrocartisone succinate and prednisolone succinate) were also tagged with DBD-PZ in the presence of DEPC and separated by isocratic elution. The detection limits (signal-to-noise ratio = 3) of FFAs tagged with DBD-PZ were in the range 3.2-4.7 fmol, whereas those of drugs were in the range 3.9-14 fmol.

Synthesis of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles

2,1,3-Benzothiadiazolecarbonitriles, 2 , have been prepared by two different methods. Reaction of bromo-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 1 , with cuprous cyanide occurs advantageously in refluxing dimethylformamide to give 2 , complexed with curpous bromide. Hydrogen peroxide in hydrochloric acid at 30–40° is shown to be an effective reagent for efficient decomposition of these reactions complexes, 2 CuBr, and subsequent isolation of 2. Yields in the Sandmeyer method for preparing nitriles 2 were improved by diazotizing amino-2,1,3-benzothiadiazoles, 3 , with nitrosyl-sulfuric acid prior to reaction with the cuprous-sodium cyanide complex.     

Mercuric ion-catalyzed hydration of derivatives of 1,4-dichloro-2-butyne. Hydration of 1-aryloxy-4-arylthio-2-butynes, 1,4-bis(arylthio)-2-butynes,and 1,4-bis(arylsulfonyl)-1-butynes

The mercuric ion-catalyzed hydration of 1,4-bis(arylthio)-2-butynes and 1-aryloxy-4-arylthio-2-butynes was studied. The 1,4-bis(arylsulfonyl)-2-butynes afforded 1,4-bis(arylsulfonyl)-2-butanones (7). The 1,4-bis(arylthio)-2-butynes afforded a variety of products in acetic acid among which were: 1,4-bis(arylthiomethyl)vinyl acetate ( 18 ); 1,4-bis(arylthio)-2-butanone ( 15 ); 1-(arylthio)-3-buten-2-one ( 16 ); and 1-(arylthio)-4-acetoxy-2-butanone ( 17 ). Ketone 15 eliminates arylthiol in an acidic medium yielding 16 which undergoes Michael addition of solvent to give 17. Treatment of 7 with base in the presence of a nucleophile (ArSH) analogously leads to elimination of arylsulfinic acid, followed by Michael addition of arylthiol. Hydration of 5 in methanol cleanly gave 1-(arylthio)-4-methoxy-2-butanones ( 19 ). In contrast, 1-aryloxy-4-arylthio-24)utynes afforded chromenes ( 8 ) by intramolecular cyclization. No thiochromenes were formed in any of the examples investigated.

Development of hydrophilic fluorogenic derivatization reagents for thiols: 4-(N-acetylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole and 4-(N-trichloroacetylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole

Sensitive, reactive, and hydrophilic fluorogenic reagents for thiols with the benzofurazan skeleton, 4-(N-acetylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (AcABD-F) and 4-(N-trichloroacetylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (TCAcABD-F) have been developed. These reagents reacted with thiols within 10 min at 60 degrees C. AcABD-F and TCAcABD-F themselves do not fluoresce but are strongly fluorescent after the reaction with thiol compounds. The generated derivatives were highly water-soluble, since they dissociated a proton and ionized in the neutral pH region. The derivatives with four biologically important thiol compounds were separated on a reversed-phase HPLC column and detected fluorometrically at 504 nm with excitation at 388 nm. The detection limit attained for homocysteine with AcABD-F was 25 fmol on column (11 nM) (signal-to-noise ratio = 3), and that for glutathione with TCAcABD-F was 45 fmol on column (20 nM).
