New variants in the total synthesis of 14β-hydroxy-17α,R-8α,9β-estradiol derivatives

Two procedures were developed for the synthesis of 17-alkyl-8,9-estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,14,17-triols from 3-methoxy-estra-1,3,5(10),8(9),14(15)-pentaene-17-one (1) using photosensitized oxidation by atmospheric oxygen or ionic hydrogenation in the presence of oxygen. It was shown that 17-hexynyl-8,9-estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-3,14,17-triol (23) and its 3-methoxy derivative (26) inhibit K⁺,Na⁺-ATPase, with inhibition degree increasing on introduction of an oxygen-containing substituent into position 17. For the first time steroids were found with ₂-adrenoblocking action.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 207–212, January, 1993.     

Hydroacridines XXI [1]. 13C NMR Spectroscopic Investigation of the Stereoselectivities of Quaternizations of N-Alkyl Derivatives of (4aα,8aβ,9aβ,10aα)- and (4aα,8aα,9aβ,10aα)-Tetradecahydroacridine

Summary.  The stereoselectivities of the quaternization reactions of (4aα,8aβ,9aβ,10aα)- and (4aα,8aα,9aβ,10aα)-tetradecahydro-10-methylacridine with methyl- and ethyl iodide as well as those of (4aα,8aβ,9aβ,10aα)- and (4aα,8aα,9aβ,10aα)-10-ethyl-tetradecahydroacridine with methyl iodide were investigated using ¹³C NMR spectroscopy including ¹³C-labelling where appropriate. The methylations of both N-methyl amines occur by predominant (60% and 75%, respectively) equatorial approach, their ethylations occur sterospecifically by equatorial approach, and the methylations of the N-ethyl amines occur by highly stereoselective (> 90%) axial approach of the quaternizing reagent.

Ab Initio Study of Prednisolone, 6α-Fluoroprednisolone, 9α-Fluoroprednisolone,and 6α,9α-Difluoroprednisolone

A theoretical study of prednisolone, 6-fluoroprednisolone, 9-fluoroprednisolone, and 6,9-difluoroprednisolone has been performed at the ab initio HF/6-31G, MP2/6-31G, and B3LYP/6-31G levels. Structural information and the electronic features of prednisolone and its derivatives and the synergistic effect of 6,9-difluoroprednisolone was examined. Contrary to the AM1 and MNDO results, we found 9-fluoroprednisolone is more stable than the 6-fluoroprednisolone. The increased corticosteroid activity of the 6,9-difluoroprednisolone is most likely due to electronic effects, mainly related to the receptor binding.     

Synthesis of symmetrical acetylenic hydrocarbons and their α,ω-di-derivatives from α,α,α-trichloro- and α,α,α,ω-tetrachloro-alkanes

Summary By the action of sodium in xylene on polychloro hydrocarbons containing -CCl₂-CCl₂- or- CC1=CC1-, groupings the corresponding symmetrical acetylenic hydrocarbons containing 10,14, and 18 carbon atoms in the molecule were obtained. From ,-disubstituted tetrachloroalkanes by the same method 1,10-diethoxy-5-decyne, 1,14-diethoxy-7-tetradecyne, and 1,14-bisdiethylamino-7-tetradecyne were obtained.The spectra were determined in the Optical Laboratory of the Institute of Heteroorganic Compounds of the USSR by N. A. Chumaevskii, who we thank.     

Conformation of α,α,α′-Trisubstituted Cyclododecanone

Ten α,α,α′-trisubstituted cyclododecanones were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, infrared, 1^H NMR and 13^C NMR spectra, and X-ray diffraction. NMR data could not give conformational information clearly, but some of their ring skeleton conformations of cyclododecanone moiety were showed to remain the unchanged [3333]-2-one conformation with little distortion, while the others were changed to the [3324]-2-one conformation in their crystal structures. These are consistent with the results of molecular mechanics calculation with Sybyl 6.9 software and Tripos force field, and semi-empirical quantum calculation with AM 1 method in Gaussian 98 software. Two geminal substituting groups are located at α-corner carbon atom, and the third group is at α-side-exo carbon atom in both conformations. Both [3333]-2-one and [3324]-2-one conformations are present in a dynamic equilibrium in the solution, but only one preferred conformation exists in the crystal solid.     

Identity of “subulacine N-oxide” with 1β,2β-epoxy-1α-hydroxymethyl-8α-pyrrolizidine

Subulacine N-oxide, a purportedly novel pyrrolizidine alkaloid from Heliotropium subulatum, was shown to have nmr and mass spectral properties identical with 1β,2β-epoxy-1α-hydroxymethyl-8α-pyrrolizidine, previously known from Crotalaria trifoliastrum.     

Automatic assembly of skeleton structures. 3. Stereoselective synthesis,stereochemistry, and cyclization ofd,l-α,α'-dioxy-α,α'-di-tert-butylglutaric acid

Stereoselective synthesis of d,l-,-dioxy-,-di-tert-butylglutaric acid hydroxyiminolactonitrile (3) was conducted by the reaction of dipivaloylmethane with HCN in ether. The corresponding hydroxylacetonitrile (4) and amide (5), acid (6), and its ester (7), from which dilactone (8) was synthesized with preparative yields, were obtained from3. Benzyl amide (9) was obtained by the reaction of8 with BnNH₂. The iminolactone structure3 of dipivaloylmethane bis-cyanohyrin, thecis-pseudo-a orientation of the functional substituents in3–7 and9, and the structure of the dilactone8 were confirmed by the¹H,¹³C NMR,IR and mass spectra.For previous communication, see [2].N.

Ionic liquid-promoted Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement of 16α,17α-epoxyandrostanes and 16α,17α-epoxyestranes

Ionic liquids 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim](+)[PF(6)](-)) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim](+)[BF(4)](-)) were found to promote an unusual Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement of steroidal 16α,17α-epoxides leading to unnatural 13-epi-18-nor-16-one derivatives as the main products. These compounds were isolated in good to excellent yields. 16α-Hydroxy-Δ(13)-18-norsteroids, the results of the usual rearrangement, were obtained as minor components of the reaction mixtures. The ionic liquid [bmim](+)[PF(6)](-) was shown to induce C-ring aromatization of 16α,17α-epoxyestranes due to the formation of HF, the hydrolysis product of [PF(6)](-). Increasing amounts of HF and [PO(2)F(2)](-) were detected by (19)F and (31)P NMR when the ionic liquid was reused. The structures of the steroidal products, 16-oxo-18-nor-13α-steroid derivatives, 16α-hydroxy-Δ(13)-18-norsteroids, and C-aromatic compounds were determined by two-dimensional NMR techniques and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). The ionic liquids were recirculated efficiently.     

α,ω-Bis-N-aziridinoalkanes

The title compound 3a-hydroxy-3-phenyl-1,2,3,3a,8a-pentahydrocyclopenta[α]inden-8-one 2 (C18H16O2, Mr = 264.31) has been obtained by the treatment of 2-(3-iodopropyl)-2phenylindan-1,3-dione 1 with tributyltin hydride in refluxing benzene, and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The analysis was carried out by direct and Fourier methods and the structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares computations. The title compound crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 9.947(3), b = 10.336(3), c = 13.239(4) (A), β = 95.565(6)o, V = 1354.7(7) (A)3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.296 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.083 mm-1, F(000) = 560, the final R = 0.0749 and wR = 0.1191. X-ray analysis revealed that the bond length of O(2)C(12) is 1.219(2) (A), slightly longer than that of the normal C=O bond (1.119 (A)). The dihedral angle between planes II and III is almost 180°, while plane II is almost vertical to plane I consisting of C(1), C(3), C(4) and C(5) with the deviation of C(2) being 0.6269 (A). In addition, there exist intermolecular hydrogen bonds between O(2) and H(1)-O(1) in the crystal structure.
