Synthèse de sucres aminés ramifiés. IV Synthèse de quelques dérivés nouveaux par l'intermédiaire d'une hexose-spiro-aziridine

Treatment of 3-C-cyano-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-O-(toluene-p-sulfonyl)-α-D -allofurannose with AlLiH₄ yields a sugar-spiro-aziridine and a branched chain sulfonamide. Reaction mechanisms are briefly discussed and the configurations of the products obtained are proved by chemical reactions. With hydrogenation, the spiro compound is opened to a branched chain amino sugar with the same tertiary carbon as in vancosamine. Several derivatives of this new compound are described: the 6-deoxy sugars in series L and D and the pentose resulting from its oxidation by periodic acid. The conformation around C(4)–C(5) bond is deduced for three compounds from NMR. data.     

Dérivés C-Glycosyliques XXXII. Synthèse de dérivés spiro-C-glycosylidéniques par cyclisation nucléophile. Communication préliminaire

C -Glycosylic derivatives XXXII. Synthesis of spiro-C -glycosylidenic derivatives via nucleophilic cyclization. On treatment with compounds bearing two nucleophilic groups as ethylenediamine, o-phenylenediamine or their monooxa or monothia analogues, 1,2:5, 6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo-hexofuranos-3-ulose gave with excellent yields the corresponding spiro-C-glycosylidenic derivative; for example, when using o-phenylenediamine, a spirobenzimidazoline ( 5 ) was obtained. The latter compound underwent, on oxidation, a ring expansion to a morpholinobenzimidazole ( 8 ). Spirobenzodiazepines, spirobenzooxazepines and spirobenzothiazepines were formed when applying the same type of cyclization reaction to 3-C-acetylmethylene-3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo- and α-D -xylo-hexofuranoses.     

Synthèse de spiro-pyrazolines par cycloaddition du diazométhane sur des sucres insaturés ramifiés. Influence de l'isomérie géométrique sur l'orientation de la réaction Communication préliminaire

The orientation of the cycloaddition of diazomethane on unsaturated branchedchain sugars has been studied. For 3-C-cyanomethylidene-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glycero-tetrofuranose the orientation was ‘normal’ and did not depend on the configuration at the double bond. The same situation prevailed with derivatives of 3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-C-methylidene-α-D-xylo-hexofuranose. For the 3-C-acylmethylidene- and the 3-C-cyanomethylidene-3-deoxy-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribo-hexofuranoses, the trans-(H–C(3′)–C(2))-isomer gave the ‘normal’ cycloadduct whereas the cis-isomer gave predominantly the αabnormal spiro-pyrazoline. This observation represents the first instance where the regioselectivity of a cycloaddition reaction is affected by the geometrical isomerism of the dipolarophile. The most probable explanation of the phenomenon is the conformational perturbation about the C(4)--C(5) bond of the unsaturated sugars induced by a change in the configuration at C(3). The consequence of that ‘conformational transmission’ of a difference in configuration at C(3) is that the steric crowding on the cis- than in the trans-isomer. Several novel examples of a new series of C-glycosylidenic derivatives, the spiro-pyrazolines, are described.     

Dérivés C-glycosyliques. VII. Synthèse et réactions de nitrones dérivées de sucres. Communication préliminaire

The syntheses of three types of sugar nitrones (aldonitrone, ketonitrone and α-β unsaturated aldonitrone) are described. On 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with phenylacetylene, the aldonitrone gave two Δ₄-isoxazolines epimeric at the new asymetric carbon, while the same reaction on the ketonitrone led to a spiro-Δ₄-isoxazoline. The reaction of these nitrones with carbon nucleophiles like phenylethynylmagnesium bromide constitutes a novel chain-extension reaction in carbohydrate chemistry.     

Utilisation d'ylides du phosphore en chimie des sucres,X. Synthèse stéréospécifique de l'épimère en C3 du streptose et d'autres sucres ramifiés,dérivés de désoxy-5-pentoses, à groupements gem-hydroxy-formyle ou gem-hydroxy-hydroxyméthyle

The synthesis of branched-chain sugars of the gem-hydroxy-formyl and the gem-hydroxy-hydroxymethyl types is described. A 5-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-furanos-3-ulose is treated with cyanomethylene-triphenyl-phosphorane, yielding the two geometrical isomers of the corresponding branched-chain unsaturated sugar. Cis-dihydroxylation(KMnO₄) of these cyanomethylenic compounds affords stereoselectively and in high yield the gem-hydroxy-formyl branched chain sugars whose formyl group is on the more hindered face of the furanose ring. The hydroxymethyl analogues of the latter compounds are readily prepared by their borohydride reduction. This method constitutes a new general route to type A branched-chain sugars epimeric at the branching-point with the sugars which would have been obtained by the classical procedure involving Grignard reagents.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXIX [1]. Sur la réaction de l′isothiocyanate d′o-méthoxycarbonyl-phényle avec divers acides et l′acide sérinephosphorique

Amino acids devoid of «leaving groups» on their β carbon atom (neither ? OH: serine, nor ? SH: cysteine) react with o-methoxycarbonyl-phenyl isothiocyanate (I) in the presence of one equivalent of NaOH, in water-dioxane or in ethanol, to yield the corresponding hydroquinazolinone derivatives II which were isolated as free acids. When treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl the hydroquinazolinone resulting from the reaction of L -serine with I undergoes a nucleophilic attack of the carbon bearing the leaving group ? OH by a lone pair of electrons of S; this attack produces the formation of an additional thiazolidine ring, yielding the thiazoloquinazolinone derivative (?)-III. In an analogous reaction DL -serine phosphoric acid treated with I at pH 8–9 yields the corresponding substituted hydroquinazolinone which, boiled in 1N hydrochloric acid, undergoes ring closure to (±)-III by the same mechanism as the serine derivative (leaving group: ? OPO₃H₂). L -Cysteine reacted with 2 equiv. of I and then treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl gives two products: (?)-III produced by the same mechanism as for serine (leaving group: ? SH), and the quinazolinone derivative IV where the ? SH group is also thiocarbamoylated.     

Synthèse électrochimique du cycle époxydique. Communication préliminaire

The polarographic behaviour of ditosyloxy alkanes TsO(CH₂)_nOTs in aprotic medium suggests that intramolecular cyclisation takes place after reductive cleavage of a single SO₂? O bond at the dropping electrode. This hypothesis was verified by controlled potential electrolysis of the lower homologues at a mercury cathode. High yields of epoxy compounds are obtained by this method.     

Synthèses de produits organofluorés VI Solvolyse de chlorofluorocyclopropanes

Fluoro-organic Syntheses VI: The Solvolysis of Chlorofluoro-cyclopropanes 2-Fluoro-allylic carbocations, generated from 1-chloro-1-fluoro-cyclopropanes or 2-fluoro-allyl p-toluene-sulfonates in water or acetic acid, undergo either proton loss or addition of hydroxyl or acetoxyl. In the latter case, an alkyl-substituted 2-fluoro-allyl ion leads predominantly to the more branched product (e.g. 3-fluoro-2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol) which may be converted into the less branched one (e.g. 2-fluoro-3-methyl-2-buten-2-ol) through reversible reactions.     

Etude par spectrométrie de masse de l'ionisation de benzonitriles,de phénylacétonitriles et de N,N-diméthylanilines substitués

Molecular ionization potentials for series of compounds of the type X? C₆H₄? CN, X? C₆H₄CH₂? CN and X? C₆H₄? N(CH₃)₂ have been measured using the retarding potential difference technique (RPD. technique). The effect of the various substituents X is better correlated through the electrophilic Brown σ_p⁺ constants than through Hammett's σ_p values. No meta-para orientation effect is observed. For all the disubstituted phenyl compounds studied, the effect of the second substituent is affected by the electron-releasing power of the original substituent. Ionization potentials calculated by using the semi-empirical method of equivalent orbitals are in good agreement with the experimental values.     

Synthèse d'une sonde biotinylée à bras clivable allongé pour l'isolement des récepteurs de l'angiotensine II

Synthesis of a Biotinylated Probe with an Extended Cleavable Arm for Angiotensin II Receptors Purification We have synthesized a new biotinylated probe for angiotensin II receptors studies: biotinyl-NH(CH₂)₂? SS? (CH₂)₂? CO-Gly-? Ahx-[Ala¹, Phe(4N₃)⁸]angiotensin II ( 5 ). This molecule can be photoactivated through an arylazido group. ¹H-NMR studies suggest that it adopts an extended conformation which should allow a simultaneous recognition of both streptavidin and hormone receptor. It has a good affinity for receptors (K_d = 1 nM) and hence is a promising tool in their detection (autoradiography, gold-, ferritin-, enzyme-, or fluorescent streptavidin derivatives) and separation (cell sorting, affinity chromatography). It can be monoiodinated (°6) at its tyrosine residue without a significant loss of affinity. Its extended cleavable arm allows an easy recovery of the ‘probe-receptor’ complex from streptavidin. An HPLC monitoring of the synthesis is described, particularly of the segment coupling 1 + 2 in presence of (benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP). This method can be used as well for synthesis of the D -Phe⁸ derivative that has antagonist properties.     

Synthèse de sucres aminés ramifiés III. Synthèse et réactions de 1′α-amino-nitrile dérivé du di-O-isopropylidène-1,2:5,6-α-D-ribo-hexofurannosul-3-ose

The addition of cyanohydric acid to 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D -ribo-hexofurannos-3-ulose can be sterically controlled. Under kinetic conditions, the allo cyanohydrine epimer is formed, under thermodynamic conditions, the gluco epimer is formed. The configuration of these two products is proved by their chemical reactions. Hydration followed by hydrolysis of the nitrile group of the allo epimer (O-acetyl derivative) gives the 3-C-carboxy-1,2-O-isopropyloidene compound. This product forms the corresponding γ or δ-lactone with hydroxyl ( 5 ) or ( 6 ). On the other hand, after hydrolysis of 5,6-isopropylidene, the 3-O-acetyl derivative of the gluco epimer gives an acetyl migration from position 3 to position 5 and finally to position 6. By reaction of the allo epimer with NH₃ and CN^?, an aminonitrile is formed. The allo configuration is deduced from the above mentioned reaction and from IR. and NMR. data. Several acetylated and trifluoracetylated derivatives of these products are described. The oxidation of the nitrile group to the amide group is possible with both epimeric cyanohydrines and the amino-nitrile.     

Sels de Pyrylium. XVIII. Etude par RMN du Carbone-13 de Sels d'Aminopyrylium et des Barrières de Rotation dans quelques Cations N,N-Diméthylaminopyrylium

The C-2—N bond of 2-N,N-dimethylaminopyrylium cations has a partial π character due to the conjugation of the nitrogen lone-pair with the ring. The values of ΔG^≠, ΔH^≠, ΔS^≠ parameters related to the corresponding hindered rotation have been determined by ¹³C NMR total bandshape analysis. This conjugation decreases the electrophilic character of carbon C-4 so that the displacement of the alkoxy group is no longer possible. Such a hindered rotation also exists in 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyrylium cations and the corresponding ΔG^≠ parameters have been evaluated. Comparison of these two cationic species shows that hindered rotation around the C—N bond is larger in position 4 than in position 2. Furthermore, the barrier to internal rotation around the C-2? N bond decreases with increasing electron donating power of the substituent at position 4. ΔG^≠ values decreases from 19.1 kcal mol^?1 (79.9 kJ mol^?1) to 12.6 kcal mol^?1 (52.7 kJ mol^?1) according to the following sequence for the R-4 substituents: -C₆H₅, -CH₃, -OCH₃, -N(CH₃)₂.     

Etudes par la RMN du carbone-13 de quelques dérivés cyclopropaniques: Déplacements chimiques et paramètres structuraux

Measurements of the ¹³C chemical shifts of monosubstituted cyclopropanes (C₃H₅X, X = CH₃, Br, ? C?CH) enabled us to determine the direct additivity parameters which depend solely on the nature of the substituent. In the case of polysubstituted derivatives, complementary effects due to pairwise contributions of the substituents superpose upon the direct effects. A systematic study of cyclopropanes polysubstituted by bromine atoms, and methyl and ethynyl groups shows these different contributions and permits us to propose a simple interpretation for the majority of cases. Pairwise interaction has been ascribed either to electron transfer or to symmetric or dissymmetric steric interactions between the different substituents, as is shown by the comparison of the theoretical with the experimental shift values.     

Nouveaux types de sucres triazotés: triazènes et phénylimino-2-oxadiazoles-1,3,4. Communication préliminaire

Novel types of sugars bearing three nitrogen atoms: triazenes and 2-phenylimino-1, 3, 4-oxadiazoles . A series of aminodeoxysugars treated with p-nitrobenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate led to the corresponding triazenes, each of which in chloroform solution existing as an equilibrium between its two tautomeric forms. The free energy of activation of the exchange of the proton between the two nitrogen atoms has been estimated by variable temperature ¹H-NMR. measurements. Each triazenylsugar gave on acetylation an unique positional isomer bearing its acyl group on the nitrogen atom directly attached to the glycosyl group. Phenylsemicarbazones of two keto-sugars were oxidized with El Khadem's reagent (I₂, HgO, MgO) to give the corresponding spiro-2-phenylimino-1, 3, 4-oxadiazoles.     

Etude de composés d'addition des acides de Lewis XXVIII. Constantes de Hammett et vibration carbonyle des composés formés par TiCl4 et SbCl5 avec des chlorures de benzoyle parasubstitués

The adducts of benzoyl chlorides p-substituted by CH₃O? , CH₃? , and H? with the electronic acceptors SbCl₅ and TiCl₄ have been prepared, and the IR. absorption spectra of the solid products studied.     

Synthèse et stéréochimie de perhydrocyclopenta[b]furannones-3-cis et perhydrocyclopenta[b]furannols-3-cis

Synthetic route to new cis-perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-3-ones and cis-perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-3-ols is described. Their configurations and conformations were inferred by ¹H and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy. A certain rigidity is associated with the bond common to the two fused ring. The conformation of tetrahydrofuran-3-one ring appears to be a composite of the C, and C₂ forms depending on the C-2 substitution.     

Synthèse de céphalosporine-lactones

Condensation of azetidinones 2a and 2b with mercaptan 3 gave respectively compound 10 or a 1:1 mixture of 17 and 17 ′. Bromination of 10 , afforded cis and trans-bromohydrins 13a and of 17 and 17 ′ cis and trans-bromohydrins 18a . Acetylation and reduction with zinc and acetic acid of these bromohydrins gave cephems 4a or 4b and 4b ′ respectively.     

Le diméthyl- et le diéthyl-tétracarbonylosmium Synthèse et réactivité

The sodium salt Na₂[Os(CO)₄] has been obtained in high yields by the reduction of either OsH₂(CO)₄ or Os₃(CO)₁₂ with sodium sand in the presence of catalytic amounts of 2, 2′-bipyridyle. The reaction of Na₂[Os(CO)₄] with alkylating agents such as methyl and ethyl iodide produces OsR₂(CO)₄ (R = CH₃, C₂H₅). NMR. and IR. spectra indicate a cis-octahedral structure of symmetry C_2v for these new alkyl compounds. Bromine breaks one osmium-carbon bond in cis-Os(CH₃)₂(CO)₄ to give cis-OsCH₃Br(CO)₄, whereas in cis-Os(C₂H₅)₂(CO)₄ both ethyl groups are easily displaced by bromine to give cis-OsBr₂(CO)₄. Under CO pressure and at elevated temperature cis-Os(CH₃)₂(CO)₄ is converted to Os(CO)₅ and ethane. With cis-Os(C₂H₅)₂(CO)₄ two CO are inserted in osmium-carbon bonds to give . NMR. and IR. data suggest a cis-configuration for this derivative and the possibility of the presence of rotational isomers.     

Synthèse et étude conformationnelle de dioxa-1,3 aza-9 spiro[5,5]undecanes

Synthesis of the new l,3-dioxa-9-azaspiro[5.5]undecane ring, was realized by the scheme represented in Figure 2. Butyro-phenones 6 posses neuroleptic activity similar to that of halo-peridol. The pharmacological activity was reported in another publication (2). Conformational study of l,3-dioxa-9-azaspiro-[5.5]undecanes shows the existence of four conformations A, B, C and D, which are shown in Figure 4. The existence of these conformations depends on the nature of the substituents R and R' on the dioxane ring. Thus, in the compounds where R ≠ H, R' = H, the four conformations are possible with a preponderance of A and B. If R and R' are different from H only the conformation A is present in 99% concentration. Lastly, when R = R' = H, the four conformations are possible with equal population for the couple A, B and the couple C, D; the first couple predominating. The presence of a fluorophenylbutyric moiety on the piperidine nitrogen does not seem to stereochemically modify the heterocyclic group.     

Chimie et pharmacologie de l'apiose III. Synthèse et propriétés de l'hydrate de l'O-isopropylidène-1, 2-tétrosulo-3-furannose

Ruthenium tetroxide oxidation of 1, 2-O-isopropylidene-β-D -threofuranose affords, besides the known 1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-L -glycero-tetros-3-ulofuranose, a lactone. The tetrosulose is easily hydrated to the corresponding gem-diol whose dehydration on molecular sieves leads to a branched-chain dimer. Lead tetraacetate oxidation of 1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-L -glycero-tetros-3-ulofuranose p-nitrophenylhydrazone leads quantitatively, to a gem-azoacetate, a new synthetic intermediate in carbohydrate chemistry. The 3-O-acetyl-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-L -glycero-tetr-3-enofuranose is easily obtained from the gem-diol. A highly stereoselective procedure is described to prepare the 3-O-acetyl-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-L -3, 4-exo-D₂-erythrofuranose.
