Bioactive isocoumarins from a terrestrial Streptomyces sp. ANK302

Four isocoumarins have been isolated from the terrestrial Streptomyces sp. ANK302, namely 6,8-dimethoxy-3-methylisocoumarin (1), 6,8-dihydroxy-3-methylisocoumarin (2), 6,8-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-3-methylisocoumarin (3), and 6,7,8-trimethoxy-3-methylisocoumarin (4). Compound 1 is a new naturally-occurring isocoumarin, and 2 was isolated as a new bacterial product. The structures 1-4 were deduced from high resolution mass, 1D and 2D NMR spectra and by comparison with related compounds from the literature. Compound 2 showed a strong zoosporicidal activity at a concentration of 5 microg/mL against a phytopathogenic oomycete, Plasmopara viticola, and 1 was active against     

Base catalyzed acylative decarboxylation. Part III. Acylation of homophthalic acid

Homophthalic acid (I) reacts with acetic anhydride in the presence of base to form the expected product, o-carboxyphenylacetone (III). Besides III, three other new products were formed, namely, 3-methyl-4-carboxyisocoumarin (II), 4-acetyl-3-methylisocoumarin (IV) and 8-acetyl-7-methylnaphtho[1,2-c]isocoumarin. A mechanism for the formation of these compounds is presented. The presence of 3-methyl-4-carboxyisocoumarin (II) supports an earlier suggestion (1) that acylation can occur prior to and without decarboxylation, which has been a point of concern in this reaction.     

Nitration of acetyl derivatives of 1-methylpyrazole

The nitration of acetyl-substituted 1-methylpyrazoles with nitric acid in 20% oleum and in acetic anhydride was studied. Dipyrazoloylfuroxans are formed in the case of nitration in oleum. 4-Nitro-3-acetyl-1-methylpyrazole was obtained by nitration of 3-acetyl-1-methylpyrazole in acetic anhydride.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 833–835, June, 1991.     

Liquid-phase reactions of isomeric methylphenols with ozone

Ozonation of isomeric methylphenols in acetic anhydride was studied. Here, acetic anhydride acts simultaneously as solvent and acylating agent. In the presence of a mineral acid methylphenols were converted into methylphenyl acetates during preparation of solutions for ozonation. The major products in the oxidation of isomeric methylphenyl acetates with ozone were aliphatic peroxides (80–90%); oxidation of the methyl group gave rise to the corresponding acetoxybenzyl acetates (7–14%) and acetoxybenzylidene diacetates (3–6%). A probable scheme for the liquid-phase oxidation of methylphenyl acetates with ozone in acetic anhydride was proposed.     

α-pyrones. III Synthesis of 5,6-dihydro-1H-benzo[c]-quinolizin-1-ones from 6-(2-nitrostyryl)-2H-pyran-2-ones

The 6-(2-nitrostyryl)-2H-pyran-2-ones 1 were reduced with hydrogen over Pd/C at room temperature and atmospheric pressure giving the 2-benzoylamino-4-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-quinolinylidene-2-pentenedioic acid derivatives 2 which were converted, without isolation, into the 5,6-dihydro-1H-benzo[c]quinolizin-1-ones 4 in refluxing acetic anhydride. When α-aminoacids 2 were treated with acetic anhydride at room temperature oxazolones 3 were isolated, while by heating quinolizines 4 were found. Compounds 3 were transformed into 4 in refluxing acetic acid or anhydride.     

Synthesis of 4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxalines from 2-substituted quinoxaline 4-oxides

The reaction of 6-chloro-2-(1-methylhydrazino)quinoxaline 4-oxide 8 with acetic anhydride resulted in the intramolecular cyclization to give 8-chloro-2,4-dimethyl-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline 7a , while the reaction of compound 8 with acetic anhydride/pyridine or acetic anhydride/acetic acid afforded 3-(2,2-diacetyl-1-memymydrazmo)-7-chloro-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxaline 9 , effecting no intramolecular cyclization. The reaction of 2-(2-acetyl-1-methylhydrazino)-6-chloroquinoxaline 4-oxide 10a or 6-chloro-2-(1-methyl-2-trifluoroacetylhydrazino)quinoxaline 4-oxide 10b with phosphoryl chloride provided compound 7a or 8-chloro-4-memyl-2-trifluoromethyl-4H-1,3,4-oxadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline 7b , respectively. The reaction of compound 7b with phosphorus pentasulfide gave 7-chloro-3-(1-methyl-2-trifluoroacetylhydrazino)-2-thioxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxaline 11 , whose dehydration with sulfuric acid in acetic acid afforded 8-chloro-4-methyl-2-trifluoromemyl-4H-1,3,4-thiadiazino[5,6-b]quinoxaline 12 .     

Chemical transformations of 3‐amino‐2‐quinolones

In order to find new antimalarial drugs, an exploration about the chemical properties of the starting compounds 3‐amino‐6‐chloro‐4‐phenyl‐1H‐quinolin‐2‐one ( 1 ) and 3‐amino‐4‐methyl‐1H‐quinolin‐2‐one ( 2 ) was developed. Acylation with acyl chloride, sulfonyl chloride and acetic anhydride were carried out. Despite a previous report [2], when acetyl chloride or acetic anhydride were assayed on 1 , only the diacetyl derivative 7 was obtained. When this compound was heated at reflux temperature in a mixture of acetic acid and acetic anhydride, it was transformed in the oxazoloquinoline 8 . Further reactions of the acyl derivatives with diazomethane afforded 1‐methylated compounds. Compound 2 gave the imine 16 by condensation with 4‐nitrobenzaldehyde.     

Synthesis of 3-amino-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one derivatives from anthranilic acid hydrazide and dicarboxylic acids

Treatment of anthranilic acid hydrazide with 2 equiv of ethoxalyl chloride gave the corresponding diester which underwent cyclization in acetic anhydride to produce ethyl 3-(ethoxalylamino)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2-carboxylate. Acylation of anthranilic acid hydrazide first with succinic anhydride and then with ethoxalyl chloride led to the formation of 4-[2-(2-{[ethoxy(oxo)acetyl]amino}benzoyl)hydrazino]-4-oxobutanoic acid whose cyclization in acetic acid afforded N-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-3-yl)succinamic acid, while in acetic anhydride ethyl 3-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)-4-oxo-3,4-dihydroquinazoline-2-carboxylate was obtained. The latter was brought into reactions with amines and hydrazine hydrate and alkaline hydrolysis. Acylation of 2-[2-(2-aminobenzoyl)hydrazinocarbonyl]benzoic acid with ethoxalyl chloride gave ethyl N-[2-(phthalimidocarbamoyl)phenyl]oxamate, and with succinic anhydride, 3-[4-oxo-3-phthalimido-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2-yl]propionic acid. 4-[2-(2-Aminobenzoyl)hydrazino]-4-oxobutanoic acid reacted with phthalic anhydride in boiling acetic acid to give phthalazino[1,2-b]quinazoline-5,8-dione via elimination of succinic acid residue.     

Antianexiety activity of pyridine derivatives synthesized from 2-chloro-6-hydrazino-isonicotinic acid hydrazide

A series of oxadiazole pyridine derivatives were synthesized by using 2-chloro-6-hydrazinoisonicotinic acid hydrazide as starting material. Treatment of the hydrazide with carbon disulfide to afford the oxadiazole derivative, which was treated with 5-methyl-2-furancarbaldehyde, formic acid, acetic acid/acetic anhydride, or phthalic anhydride to yield the corresponding pyridinodiazoles and on imide. Condensation of the hydrazide with p-fluorobenzaldehyde in ethanol or acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate afforded hydrazone and oxadiazole derivatives, which were acetylated and cyclized with acetic anhydride to N-acetyloxadiazole derivatives. The hydrazone was treated with acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate, or bromine water/sodium acetate to give on oxadiazole, while it was cyclized with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of TEA to oxoazetidinaminoisonicotinamide. Finally, condensation of the hydrazide with acid anhydrides in refluxing glacial acetic acid afforded the corresponding bisimide derivatives. The pharmacological screening showed that many of these obtained compounds have good antianexiety activity comparable to diazepam^® as positive control.     

N2′-acetyl-6-diacetoxymethylpterin

Treatment of folic acid with bromine in 48% hydrobromic acid gives the hydrobromide salt of 6-formylpterin ( 1 ), and acetylation of 1 with recovered acetic anhydride leads to N^2′-acetyl-6-diacetoxymethylpterin ( 3 ).     

Coulometric generation of acetylions by oxidation of mercury in acetic anhydride and in acetic acid/acetic anhydride mixture

Coulometric generation of acetyl (CH₃CO⁺) ions by oxidation of mercury in acetic anhydride and in acetic acid/acetic anhydride (5:95, v/v) is described. Current/potential curves for solvents, titrated bases, indicator and mercury showed that in both these solvents mercury is oxidized at potentials which are much more negative than those for the titrated bases and other components present in the solution. Quinoline, triethanolamine, triethylamine, pyridine and quinolin-8-ol in acetic anhydride, as well as triethylamine, 2,2′-bipyridine, 2,4,6-collidine, pyridine and sodium acetate in acetic acid/acetic anhydride were titrated with acetyl ions generated by the oxidation of mercury. In this way, it was established that the oxidation of mercury to mercury (I) ions proceeds quantitatively with 100% current efficiency.

3-Bromofuran has been obtained in good yield by the reaction of 4, 5-dibromo-3, 6-endoxohexahydrophthalic anhydride with quinoline at 210–220° C. It has been shown that the reaction of 3-bromofuran with acetic anhydride in the presence of perchloric acid forms 2-acetyl-3-bromofuran.     

Direct introduction of heterocyclic residues into 1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)ones

3-Aryl-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 1a-c react with indoles 2a-c in trifluoroacetic acid/chloroform or in boiling butanol or acetic acid to give 3-aryl-6-(indolyl-3)-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-g . Oxidation of the dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 3a-e afforded 6-(indolyl-3)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 4a-e , products of nucleophilic substitution of hydrogen in 1a-c . Refluxing 1b with N-methylpyrrote 5b in butanol for an extended time resulted in the formation of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(1-meuiylpyrrolyl-2)-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one 4h. The reaction of 1a-c with indoles 2a-c , pyrroles 5a,b , 1,3-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrazol-4-one (8) and aminothiazoles 9a,b in acetic anhydride affords the 1-acetyl-3-aryl-6-hetaryl-1,6-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-ones 6a-s . Reaction of 1a-c with N-methyl-pyrrole 5b in acetic anhydride gives beside the 1:1 addition products 6h-k also the 2:1 addition products 7a-c .     

在H3PO4存在下2,3-二甲基-2-丁烯与乙酐的酰化反应

在H3PO4存在下进行了2，3－二甲基－2－丁烯与乙酐的酰化反应，结果表明，H3PO4是室温下催化2，3－二甲基－2－丁烯与乙酐酰化反应的有效催化剂，在H3PO4存在下，酰化产物的收率主要取决于：（a)H3PO4的用量，（b)乙酐的用量；（c)反应温度和（d)反应时间，在适宜反应条件下，所得3，3，4－三甲基－4－戊烯－2－酮（TMP）约为99％，另外还发现，反应体系中加入少量乙酸，不会明显减少酰化产物的收率，乙酐的纯度，反应物的加入顺序对该反应几乎没有任何影响，在有和没有溶剂CH2Cl2的条件下所得酰化产物的收率是可比的。     

Synthesis of mixed acid anhydrides from methane and carbon dioxide in acid solvents

[reaction: see text] The reaction of CH(4) with CO(2) has been performed in anhydrous acids using VO(acac)(2) and K(2)S(2)O(8) as promoters. NMR analysis establishes that the primary product is a mixed anhydride of acetic acid and the acid solvent. In sulfuric acid, the overall reaction is CH(4) + CO(2) + SO(3) --> CH(3)C(O)-O-SO(3)H. Hydrolysis of the mixed anhydride produces acetic acid and the solvent acid. When trifluoroacetic acid is the solvent, acetic acid is primarily formed via the reaction CH(4) + CF(3)COOH --> CH(3)COOH + CHF(3).     

Nitration of 2,3′-bithienyl

The nitration of 2,3′-bithienyl ( 1 ) with fuming nitric acid in acetic anhydride at 0° gives a mixture of 3-nitro- ( 2 ), 2′ -nitro- ( 3 ) and 5-nitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 4 ) with relative percentages of 38.7%, 34.8% and 26.5%. When the nitration of 1 was carried out with fuming nitric acid in acetic acid at 20°, the same compounds 2, 3 and 4 were obtained, but with different relative percentages: 20.4%, 36.5% and 43.1% respectively. The results of the mononitration of 1 are compared with those obtained in other electrophilic substitutions and with the theoretical predictions. The further nitrations of 2, 3 and 4 with nitric acid in acetic anhydride at room temperature lead to the formation of five dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl isomers. Compound 2 gives a mixture of 2′,3-dinitro- ( 5 ) and 3,5′-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 6 ); compound 3 gives a mixture of 5 , 2′,5-dinitro- ( 7 ) and 2′,4-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 8 ); compound 4 gives 7 and 5,5′-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 9 ). The possible reasons of the formation of the various dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl isomers are discussed.
