Cycloalkylation of N-phenyl-N′-R-thiourea with 3-aryl-2-propenoyl chlorides in acetone gives as products 6-aryl-3-phenyl-2-(R-imino)-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-one and their hydrochlorides. The same reaction carried out in acetone in the presence of K₂CO₃ leads to the formation of 6-aryl-3-phenyl-2-(R-imino)-2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-4H-1,3-thiazin-4-ones, N-(3-aryl-2-propenoyl)-N-phenylthioureas, 3-aryl-2-propenoylanilides, and phenyl isothiocyanate.

The influence of ligand side chain on the enantioselectivity of Lewis acid catalyzed Diels-Alder reactions

The enantioselective Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction of 3-(2-propenoyl)-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one 8 with cyclopentadiene was examined using a series of chiral mox ligands 2-6, deferring in the side chain at 2-position of the chiral oxazoline and in the nature of the substituent at the chiral center (4-position) of the oxazoline ring, and a combination of N-[(1R)-2-chloro-1-phenylethyl]-2-[(4R)-4-phenyl-4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl]butyramide 2-MgI(2)-I(2) was the most efficient catalyst.

Synthetic studies on diuretics. 5-(3,3-N,S-substituted-2-propenoyl)-2,3-dihydro-2- benzo[b]furancarboxylic acids

6,7-Dichloro-2,3-dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acid derivatives having a 3,3-N,S-disubstituted-2-propenoyl group at the 5-position were prepared by alkylation of 5-(thiocarbamoyl)acetyl derivatives of the 2,3-dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acid ester or by acetal exchange reaction of 5-[3,3-bis(alkylthio)-2-propenoyl] derivatives. Synthesis of 5-[4 and/or 5-(di)substituted-4-thiazolin-2-ylidene]acetyl-2,3- dihydro-2-benzo[b]furancarboxylic acids was also achieved by the reaction of 2-halo-1-methoxyethyl isothiocyanate with the 5-acetyl derivative in the presence of base or through sulfide contraction of 2-[[6,7-dichloro-2-methoxycarbonyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]furan-5-yl) carbonyl)-methylthio]thiazolium bromide.

2-[6-Alkyl-3-hetaryl-4-oxo-9,10-dihydro-4H,8H-chromeno-[8,7-<Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis>][1,3]oxazin-9-yl]acetic acids

The interaction has been studied of a series of substituted 3-hetaryl-7-hydroxychromones with amino acids and formaldehyde (reactants ratio 1: 1: 2 respectively). In the case of glycine and Het = 3-isoxazolyl the product of aminomethylation at position 8 of the chromone was obtained, and with other Het (including Het = 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl) 2-[6-alkyl-3-hetaryl-4-oxo-9,10-dihydro-4H,8H-chromeno[8,7-e][1,3]-oxazin-9-yl]acetic acids were formed. With β-alanine and Het = 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl the corresponding β-substituted propionic acid was synthesized, but proline did not participate in the reaction, leading to bis(6-ethyl-3-hetaryl-7-hydroxychromon-8-yl)methane. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 683–689, May, 2007.     

Effects of chromatography conditions on intact protein separations for top-down proteomics

A chiral stationary phase (CSP) has been prepared by chemically bonding a chiral pseudo-18-crown-6 type host having a 1-phenyl-1,2-cyclohexanediol unit to 3-aminopropyl silica gel. The chiral column was prepared by the slurry-packing method in a stainless steel HPLC column. Normal mobile phases can be used with this CSP in contrast to conventional dynamic coating type CSPs. Enantiomers of 20 out of 30 amino compounds, including 20 amino acids, 2 amino acid methyl esters, 6 amino alcohols, and 2 lipophilic amines, were efficiently separated on columns with this CSP. It is noteworthy that 15 amino compounds out of 30 were separated with better separation factors and shorter retention times compared to the corresponding CSP having pseudo-18-crown-6 with 1-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol as a chiral unit. In view of the correlation between the enantiomer selectivities observed in chromatography and those obtained in gas phase FABMS-EL methods and solution phase titrations, chiral recognition in the host-guest interaction likely contributes to enantiomer separation.     

Synthesis of β-phenyl-δ,ε-unsaturated amino acids and stereoselective introduction of side chain groups into [4,3,0]-bicyclic β-turn dipeptides

(2S,3S)- and (2R,3R)-2-amino-3-phenyl-5-hexenoic acids have been synthesized in large scale by using Ni(II)-complexes as a template. The amino acids were used in the synthesis of [4,3,0]-bicyclic β-turn mimetics by a convergent methodology. The unique advantage of this strategy is the convenience of introducing side chain groups with predetermined chiralities on both the five- and six-membered heterocyclic rings.     

Cleavage of azoles—I: Synthesis of some triazolyloxazolines and triazolylbenzoxazones

Treatment of glycine, and o-aminobenzoic acid with 4-arylhydrazono-2-phenyl-2-oxazolin-5-ones effected the formation of the N-(1,5-diaryl-1H-1,2,4-triazolyl-3-carbonyl) derivatives of the amino acids. The triazolylcarbonylglycines were azlactonised with aromatic aldehydes to 4-arylidene-2-triazolyl-2-oxazolin-5-ones, which behaved similar to the 2-phenyl analogues towards the action of ammonia and amines. Cyclisation of the triazolylcarbonylanthranilic acids with acetic anhydride afforded 2-triazolyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones.     

Synthesis of novel chiral stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography

Three novel chiral selectors 4a-c were synthesized from(S)-amino acids and(R)-1-phenyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)ethylamine.4a-cwere connected to 3-aminopropylsilanized silica gel to be used as the chiral stationary phase for HPLC.Five amino acid derivativesand two pyrethroid insecticides were fairly resolved on these three new chiral stationary phases under normal phase condition.     

Chiral lithium amido sulfide ligands for asymmetric addition reactions of alkyllithium reagents to aldehydes

Six chiral amino sulfides have been synthesised from the amino acids phenylalanine, phenylglycine and valine. These amino sulfides were used as chiral ligands in the asymmetric addition of n-butyllithium and metyllithium to various aldehydes at low temperatures. The highest stereoselectivities were obtained with benzaldehyde, resulting in 1-phenyl-1-pentanol and 1-phenyl-1-ethanol in enantiomeric excesses of >98.5 and 95%, respectively. These stereoselectivities were significantly higher than those induced by the ether analogues.     

Synthesis of novel 1-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carboxylic Acids. I. Utilization of ullmann and dieckmann reactions for the preparation of 3-hydroxy, 3-alkoxy,and 3-alkyl derivatives

Methods for the synthesis of novel 3-hydroxy, 3-alkoxy, and 3-alkyl indole-2-carboxylic acids and esters are described. Dieckmann cyclization of various 2-[(carboxymethyl)amino]benzoic acid diesters yielded 1-unsubstituted-, 1-methyl-, and 1-phenyl-3-hydroxy-1H-indole-2-carboxylic acid esters. An Ullmann reaction with bromobenzene converted 1H-indoles to 1-phenylindoles.     

Virtually complete control of simple and face diastereoselectivity in the Michael addition reactions between achiral equivalents of a nucleophilic glycine and (S)- or (R)-3-(E-enoyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones: practical method for preparation of beta-substituted pyroglutamic acids and prolines

This study demonstrates a new strategy for controlling the stereochemical outcome of the Michael addition reactions between nucleophilic glycine equivalents and alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acid derivatives: The addition reactions between achiral Ni(II)-complex of the Schiff base of glycine with o-[N-alpha-pycolylamino]acetophenone and (S)- or (R)-3-(E-enoyl)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones were shown to occur at room temperature in the presence of nonchelating organic bases and, most notably, with very high stereoselectivity at both newly formed stereogenic centers. Thus, the chiral 4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one moiety was found to control efficiently both face diastereoselectivities of the glycine derived enolate and the C,C double bond of the Michael acceptor. The new strategy developed in this work is methodologically superior to previous methods, most notably in terms of generality and synthetic efficiency. Excellent chemical yields and diastereoselectivities, combined with the simplicity of the experimental procedures, render the present method of immediate use for preparing various 3-substituted pyroglutamic acids and related amino acids (glutamic acids, glutamines, prolines, etc.) available via conventional transformations of the former.

Benzoyl- and cinnamoylpyruvic acids have been investigated by X-ray diffraction. In crystals these acids exist as 2-hydroxy-4-oxo-4-phenyl-3(Z)-butenic and 4-hydroxy-2-oxo-6-phenyl-3(Z),5(E)-hexadienic acids, respectively, stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding.     

Cycloaddition to aminomethylene derivatives of 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-thione and 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-selenone

Addition products — anhydrides of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-alkylamino-4,5,6-tetrahydrothio(seleno)pyrano-3, 2-pyrazole-5,6-dicarboxylic acids — were obtained by cycloaddition of maleic anhydride to aminomethylene derivatives of 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-thione and 1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazole-5-selenone, while anhydrides of the corresponding dihydrothio(seleno)pyranopyrazoledicarboxylic acids were obtained by splitting out of an amine. The oxygen-containing analog does not undergo cycloaddition. An oxanol dye is formed from 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-dimethylaminomethylene-5-pyrazolone, whereas the corresponding acyl derivative was isolated from the monomethyl derivatives.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 527–529, April, 1979.     

Action of acidic and alkaline agents on dioxonaphthofuran derivatives

The action of sulfuric and polyphosphoric acids and sodium hydroxide on 3-carbethoxy-4,5-dioxonaphthofuran derivatives was studied. 2-Methyl- and 2-phenyl-3-carboxy-4,5-dioxonaphthofurans were obtained by the action of sulfuric acid on the indicated compounds. The action of alkali on 2-methyl- and 2-phenyl-3-carbethoxy-4,5-dioxonaphthofurans and 2-phenyl-4,9-dioxonaphthofurans leads to the formation of 2-hydroxy-3-acetonyl- and 2-hydroxy-3-phenacyl-1,4-dioxonaphthalenes.
