1,2‐Diaza‐3‐silacyclopent‐5‐ene – Synthese und Reaktionen

1,2‐Diaza‐3‐silacyclopent‐5‐ene – Synthesis and Reactions The dilithium salt of bis(tert‐butyl‐trimethylsilylmethylen)ketazine ( 1 ) forms an imine‐enamine salt. 1 reacts with halosilanes in a molar ratio of 1:1 to give 1,2‐diaza‐3‐silacyclopent‐5‐enes. Me₃SiCH=CCMe₃ [N(SiR,R′)‐N=C‐C]HSiMe₃ ( 2 ‐ 7 ). ( 2 : R,R′ = Cl; 3 : R = CH₃, R′ = Ph; 4 : R = F, R′ = CMe₃; 5 : R = F, R′ = Ph; 6 : R = F, R′ = N(SiMe₃)₂; 7 : R = F, R′ = N(CMe₃)SiMe₃). In the reaction of 1 with tetrafluorosilane the spirocyclus 8 is isolated. The five‐membered ring compounds 2 ‐ 7 and compound 9 substituted on the silicon‐fluoro‐ and (tert‐butyltrimethylsilyl) are acid at the C(4)‐atom and therefore can be lithiated. Experiments to prepare lithium salts of 4 with MeLi, n‐BuLi and PhLi gave LiF and the substitution‐products 10 ‐ 12 . 9 forms a lithium salt which reacts with ClSiMe₃ to give LiCl and the SiMe₃ ring system ( 13 ) substituted at the C(4)‐atom. The ring compounds 3 ‐ 7 and 10 ‐ 12 form isomers, the formation is discussed. Results of the crystal structure and analyses of 8 , 10 , 12 , and 13 are presented.     

Kristallstrukturen und spektroskopische Eigenschaften von 2λ3‐Phospha‐1, 3‐dionaten und 1, 3‐Dionaten des Calciums ‐ ein Vergleich am Beispiel der 1, 3‐Diphenyl‐ und 1, 3‐Di(tert‐butyl)‐Derivate

Crystal Structures and Spectroscopic Properties of 2λ³‐Phospha‐1, 3‐dionates and 1, 3‐Dionates of Calcium ‐ Comparative Studies on the 1, 3‐Diphenyl and 1, 3‐Di(tert‐butyl) Derivatives A hydrogen‐metal exchange between dibenzoylphosphane and calcium carbide in tetrahydrofuran (THF) followed by addition of the ligand 1, 3, 5‐trimethyl‐1, 3, 5‐triazinane (TMTA) furnishes the binuclear complex bis[(tmta‐N, N′, N″)calcium bis(dibenzoylphosphanide)] ( 1a ) co‐crystallizing with benzene. Similarly, reaction of bis(2, 2‐dimethylpropionyl)phosphane with bis(thf‐O)calcium bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amide] in 1, 2‐dimethoxyethane (DME) gives bis(dme‐O, O′)calcium bis[bis(2, 2‐dimethylpropionyl)phosphanide] ( 1b ) in high yield. The carbon analogues 1, 3‐diphenylpropane‐1, 3‐dione (dibenzoylmethane) or 2, 2, 6, 6‐tetramethylheptane‐3, 5‐dione (dipivaloylmethane) and bis(thf‐O)calcium bis[tris(trimethylsilylmethyl)zincate] in DME afford bis(dme‐O, O′)calcium bis(dibenzoylmethanide) ( 2a ) and the binuclear complex (μ‐dme‐O, O′)bis[(dme‐O, O′)calcium bis(dipivaloylmethanide)] ( 2b ), respectively. Dialkylzinc formed during the metalation reaction shows no reactivity towards the 1, 3‐dionates 2a and 2b . Finally, from the reaction of the unsymmetrically substituted ligand 2‐(methoxycarbonyl)cyclopentanone and bis(thf‐O)calcium bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amide] in toluene, the trinuclear complex 3 is obtained, co‐crystallizing with THF. The β‐ketoester anion bridges solely via the cyclopentanone unit.     

Fragmentation Mechanism of Trans—α—Aryl—β—enamino Esters

Electron impact-induced fragmentation mechanism of Trans-α-Aryl-β-enamino esters were investigated using mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy (MIKE) spectrometry and high resolution accurate mass data It was found that the main characteristic fragmentations of compounds studied were:an odd electron ion M^ -EtOH was formed by losing a neutral molecule of ethanol;and the skeletal rearrangements took place;and the ring opening reaction happened after losing a carbon monoxide;and the typical McLafferty rearrangement underwent in ester group.The cycliztion reation caused by losing neutral molecule of TsNH2 due to the ortho-effects of substituted group of gromatic ring was also observed.     

Synthesis and complexing properties of double armed diaza‐15‐crown‐5 and diaza‐18‐crown‐6 ethers having 4′‐hydroxy‐3′,5′‐disubstituted benzyl groups

A series of double armed diaza‐15‐crown‐5 ethers (9a ‐ 16a) and diaza‐18‐crown‐6 ethers (9b ‐ 16b) have been prepared by the Mannich reaction of 2,6‐disubstituted phenols with the corresponding N,N'‐dimethoxymethyldiaza‐crown ethers in benzene. The crystal structures of the diaza‐18‐crown‐6 ethers having iso‐propyl (10b) , tert‐butyl (11b) , and mixed methyl and tert‐butyl groups (12b) at positions 3′ and 5′ of the phenolic side arms were determined using X‐ray diffraction methods. Competitive transport by these ligands for sodium, potassium and cesium cations were measured under basic‐source phase and acidic‐receiving phase conditions.     

7‐Iodo‐5‐aza‐7‐deazaguanine: Syntheses of Anomeric D‐ and L‐Configured 2‐Deoxyribonucleosides

Iodination of N²‐isobutyryl‐5‐aza‐7‐deazaguanine ( 7 ) with N‐iodosuccinimide (NIS) gave 7‐iodo‐N²‐isobutyryl‐5‐aza‐7‐deazaguanine ( 8 ) in a regioselective reaction (Scheme 1). Nucleobase‐anion glycosylation of 8 with 2‐deoxy‐3,5‐di‐O‐toluoyl‐α‐D ‐ or α‐L ‐erythro‐pentofuranosyl chloride furnished anomeric mixtures of D ‐ and L ‐nucleosides. The anomeric D ‐nucleosides were separated by crystallization to give the α‐D ‐anomer and β‐D ‐anomer with excellent optical purity. Deprotection gave the 7‐iodo‐5‐aza‐7‐deazaguanine 2′‐deoxyribonucleosides 3 (β‐D ; ≥99% de) and 4 (α‐D ; ≥99% de). The reaction sequence performed with the D ‐series was also applied to L ‐nucleosides to furnish compounds 5 (β‐L ; ≥99% de) and 6 (α‐L ; ≥95% de).     

Synthesis of herbicidal 3‐substituted‐4(3H)‐pyrimidinones under high pressure

The reaction of an N‐monosubstituted amidine with a β‐ketoester to afford a pyrimidinone is sluggish at best under normal conditions. We now report that this reaction can be effected in moderate yield under high pressure. Thus, 2,6‐dichloro‐4‐pyridyl‐(N‐prop‐2‐ynyl)carboxamidine (4b) was reacted with three α‐substituted‐β‐ketoesters (2b‐d) at 10–16 kbar to afford herbicidal 2‐(2,6‐dichloro‐4‐pyridyl)‐3‐(prop‐2‐ynyl)‐4(3H)‐pyrimidinones 5b and 5c in 15 ‐ 43% yield. This result expands the scope of reactions promoted by application of high pressure.     

Investigations on regio‐ and stereoselectivities in cycloadditions involving α‐ (3‐pyridyl)‐N‐phenylnitrone: Development of an efficient route to novel nicotine analogs

Thermal reactions of hitherto α‐(3‐pyridyl)‐N‐phenylnitrone ( 1 ) with mono‐substituted electron‐rich and electron‐neutral dipolarophiles are regio‐, and stereo‐selective (exo‐selective), controlled by LUMO ‐ dipole ‐ HOMO‐ dipolarophile interaction, and furnish syn‐5‐substituted‐3‐(3‐pyridyl)‐isoxazolidines ( 5 ) in high yields. With electron deficient dipolarophiles such as acrylonitrile there is observed a loss of regioselectivity as well as stereoselectivity and the regioselectivity is reversed in reactions with methyl vinyl ketone and methyl acrylate, due to intervention of HOMO‐dipole ‐ LUMO‐dipolarophile interaction, affording 4‐substi‐tuted‐3‐(3‐pyridyl)‐isoxazolidines ( 7 ) as major products. Reactions of nitrone ( 1 ) with disubstituted dipolarophiles such as methyl methacrylate and ethyl coronate furnish methyl syn‐5‐methy‐3‐pyridyl‐1‐phenyl‐isoxazolidine‐5‐carboxylate ( 8 ) and ethyl anti‐5‐methy‐3‐pyridyl‐1‐phenyl‐isoxazolidine‐4‐carboxylate ( 10 ), respectively, in high yields. Reaction with N‐Phenylmaleimide affords novel isoxazolidino‐pyrro‐lidinediones bearing a 3‐pyridyl moiety ( 11, 12 ). A mechanistic rationalization of the obtained results in terms of electronic, steric and secondary interactions is proffered.     

An efficient and regiospecific preparation of trifluoromethyl substituted 4‐( 1H‐pyrazol‐1 ‐yl)‐7‐chloroquinolines

A new series of 4‐[3‐alkyl(aryl)(heteroaryl)‐5‐hydroxy‐5‐trifluoromethyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrazol‐1‐yl]‐7‐chloroquinolines, where [alkyl = CH₃; aryl = C₆H₅, 4‐CH₃C₆H₄, 4‐FC₆H₄, 4‐ClC₆H₄, 4‐BrC₆H₄, 4‐CH₃OCgH₄, 4‐NO₂CgH₄, 4‐biphenyl, 1‐naphthyl; heteroaryl = 2‐furyl and 2‐thienyl] has been regiospecifi‐caly obtained from the reaction of 7‐chloro‐4‐hydrazinoquinoline with 4‐substituted‐l,1,1‐trifluoro‐4‐methoxybut‐3‐en‐2‐ones in 61 ‐ 96 % yield. Subsequently, dehydration reaction of 4,5‐dihydropyra‐zolylquinolines under acid conditions furnished a new series of 4‐(3‐substituted‐5‐trifluoromethyl‐1H‐pyra‐zol‐1‐yl)‐7‐chloroquinolines in 73 ‐ 96 % yield.     

Synthesis of Bis‐Heterocyclic 1H‐Imidazole 3‐Oxides from 3‐Oxido‐1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides

The reaction of 1H‐imidazole‐4‐carbohydrazides 1 , which are conveniently accessible by treatment of the corresponding esters with NH₂NH₂?H₂O, with isothiocyanates in refluxing EtOH led to thiosemicarbazides (=hydrazinecarbothioamides) 4 in high yields (Scheme 2). Whereas 4 in boiling aqueous NaOH yielded 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thiones 5 , the reaction in concentrated H₂SO₄ at room temperature gave 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amines 6 . Similarly, the reaction of 1 with butyl isocyanate led to semicarbazides 7 , which, under basic conditions, undergo cyclization to give 2,4‐dihydro‐3H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐ones 8 (Scheme 3). Treatment of 1 with Ac₂O yielded the diacylhydrazine derivatives 9 exclusively, and the alternative isomerization of 1 to imidazol‐2‐ones was not observed (Scheme 4). It is important to note that, in all these transformations, the imidazole N‐oxide residue is retained. Furthermore, it was shown that imidazole N‐oxides bearing a 1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione or 1,3,4‐thiadiazol‐2‐amine moiety undergo the S‐transfer reaction to give bis‐heterocyclic 1H‐imidazole‐2‐thiones 11 by treatment with 2,2,4,4‐tetramethylcyclobutane‐1,3‐dithione (Scheme 5).     

Allylic Peroxidations with Bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindolato‐Cobalt and ‐Iron Complexes

Several novel substituted bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindolato (BPI) cobalt(II) and iron(II) complexes [M(BPI)(OAc)(H₂O)] (M = Co: 1 ‐ 6, Fe: 7) have been synthesized by reaction of bis(2‐pyridylimino)isoindole derivatives with the corresponding metal(II) acetates. Reaction of 1‐6 with 1.5 ‐ 2 molar equivalents of t‐BuOOH gave the corresponding alkylperoxocobalt(III) complexes [Co(BPI)(OAc)(OOtBu)] (10 ‐ 15). Using an aqueous solution of t‐BuOOH (70 %), cyclohexene was selectively catalytically oxidized to the dialkylperoxide cyclohex‐2‐ene‐1‐t‐butylperoxide.     

1‐Azonia‐2‐boratanaphthalenes

The 1‐azonia‐2‐boratanaphthalenes (NH)(BX)C₈H₆ can be synthesized from 2‐aminostyrene and the dihaloboranes XBHal₂ ( 1 ‐ 4 : X = Cl, Br, iPr, tBu). Further derivatives (NH)(BX)C₈H₆ are obtained from 1 by replacing Cl by alkoxy or alkyl groups [ 5 ‐ 8 : X = OMe, OtBu, Me, (CH₂)₃NMe₂]. The hydrolysis of 1 gives a mixture of the bis(azoniaboratanaphthyl) oxide [(NH)BC₈H₆]₂O ( 9 ) and the hydroxy derivative (NH)[B(OH)]C₈H₆ ( 10 ). The diboryl oxide 9 crystallizes in the space group C2/c. The lithiation of 4 at the nitrogen atom gives [NLi(tmen)](BtBu)C₈H₆ ( 11 ), which upon reaction with the diborane(4) B₂Cl₂(NMe₂)₂ yields the 1, 2‐bis(azoniaboratanaphthyl)diborane B₂[N(BtBu)C₈H₆]₂(NMe₂)₂ ( 12 ). The 2‐chloro‐1‐methyl‐4‐phenyl derivative (NMe)(BCl)C₈H₅Ph ( 13 ) of the parent (NH)(BH)C₈H₆ can be synthesized from the aminoborane BCl₂(NMePh) and phenylethyne. Substitution of Cl in 13 gives the derivatives (NMe)(BX)C₈H₅Ph [ 14 ‐ 20 : X = N(SiMe₃)₂, Me, Et, iBu, tBu, CH₂SiMe₃, Ph] and the reaction of 13 with Li₂O affords the bis(azoniaboratanaphthyl) oxide [(NMe)BC₈H₅Ph]₂O ( 21 ). The reaction of 16 or 19 with [(MeCN)₃Cr(CO)₃] yields the complexes [{(NMe)(BX)C₈H₅Ph}Cr(CO)₃] ( 22 , 23 : X = Et, CH₂SiMe₃), in which the chromium atom is hexahapto bound to the homoarene part of 16 or 19 , respectively. The complex 23 crystallizes in the space group P2₁/c. Upon reaction of the phenols para‐C₆H₄R(OH) with the aryldichloroboranes ArBCl₂ and subsequent condensation of the products with phenylethyne, the 1‐oxonia‐2‐boratanaphthalenes O(BAr)C₈H₄RPh with R in position 6 and Ph in position 4 are formed ( 24 ‐ 26 : Ar = Ph, R = H, Me, OMe; 27 ‐ 29 : Ar = C₆F₅, R = H, Me, OMe). The azoniaboratanaphthalenes 1 ‐ 23 were characterized by NMR methods.     

One‐Pot Synthesis of 4‐(Alkylamino)‐1‐(arylsulfonyl)‐3‐benzoyl‐1,5‐ dihydro‐5‐hydroxy‐5‐phenyl‐2H‐pyrrol‐2‐ones via a Multicomponent Reaction

An effective route to novel 4‐(alkylamino)‐1‐(arylsulfonyl)‐3‐benzoyl‐1,5‐dihydro‐5‐hydroxy‐5‐phenyl‐2H‐pyrrol‐2‐ones 10 is described (Scheme 2). This involves the reaction of an enamine, derived from the addition of a primary amine 5 to 1,4‐diphenylbut‐2‐yne‐1,4‐dione, with an arenesulfonyl isocyanate 7 . Some of these pyrrolones 10 exhibit a dynamic NMR behavior in solution because of restricted rotation around the C? N bond resulting from conjugation of the side‐chain N‐atom with the adjacent α,β‐unsaturated ketone group, and two rotamers are in equilibrium with each other in solution ( 10 ? 11 ; Scheme 3). The structures of the highly functionalized compounds 10 were corroborated spectroscopically (IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, and EI‐MS), by elemental analyses, and, in the case of 10a , by X‐ray crystallography. A plausible mechanism for the reaction is proposed (Scheme 4).     

Efficient Synthesis of Novel Coumarin‐3‐carboxamides (=2‐Oxo‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐3‐carboxamides) Containing Lipophilic Spacers

The novel coumarin‐3‐carboxamides (=2‐oxo‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐3‐carboxamides) 5a – 5g containing lipophilic spacers were synthesized through the Ugi‐four‐component reaction (Scheme 1). The reactions of aromatic aldehydes 1 , 4,4′‐oxybis[benzenamine] or 4,4′‐methylenebis[benzenamine] as diamine 2 , coumarin‐3‐carboxylic acid (=2‐oxo‐2H‐benzopyran‐3‐carboxylic acid; 3 ), and alkyl isocyanides 4 lead to the desired substituted coumarin‐3‐carboxamides 5a – 5g at room temperature with high bond‐forming efficiency. These novel coumarin derivatives exhibit brilliant fluorescence at 544 nm in CHCl₃.

A simple synthesis of N²‐alkyl‐N³‐[2‐(1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐yl)aryl]benzofuran‐2,3‐diamines 5 via a one‐pot four‐component reaction is described (Scheme 1). A mixture of N‐(isocyanoimino)triphenylphosphorane ( 1 ), a 2‐aminobenzoic acid 2 , a 2‐hydroxybenzaldehyde 3 , and an isocyanide 4 in absolute EtOH at room temperature undergoes a smooth reaction to afford 5 in excellent yields (Table).     

Synthesis of N‐aryl‐2‐amino‐4‐oxo‐3,4‐dihydrothieno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamides

It has been shown that more efficient synthesis of compound 4 includes the preparation of 4‐methoxy derivative 7 and subsequent tandem substitution/annulation reaction with methyl mercaptoethanoate in dimethylformamide in the presence of potassium carbonate and molecular sieves 4 Å. Compound 4 was used for the synthesis of N‐aryl 2‐amino‐4‐oxo‐3,4‐dihydrothieno[2,3‐d]‐pyrimidine‐6‐carboxamides 10a‐c, including an analog of folic acid with amide bridge ‐ N‐(4‐{[(2‐amino‐4‐oxo‐3,4‐dihydrothieno[2,3‐d]pyrirnidin‐6‐yl)carbonyl]amino}‐benzoyl)‐L‐glutamic acid (10c) .     

Synthetic Studies on the Synthesis of Some New Fused Heterocyclic Compounds Derived from 3,5‐Pyrazolidinedione

Condensation of 1‐phenylpyrazolidine‐3,5‐dione 1 with 3‐formylchromone afforded 4‐(chromenylmethylene)pyrazolidinedione 2 , which was reacted with hydrazine or hydroxylamine in different molar ratios and conditions to give the corresponding pyrazole and isoxazole derivatives 3 ‐ 8 , respectively. Compound 2 was subject to react with ammonia, N,S‐ or S,S‐acetals, mercaptoacetic acid, cyanoacetamide or cyanothioacetamide to give the corresponding pyridine, dithiine, thiazine and thiophene, 9 ‐ 14 , respectively. The reaction of compound 2 with thiourea, guanidine, cystamine, o‐aminothiophenol, ethylenediamine, o‐phenelenediamine or barbituric acid afforded the corresponding thiazine, pyrimidine, thiazepine, diazepine, and pyran derivatives 17 ‐ 23 , respectively. The study of the reaction of compound 2 with nucleophiles via chromene ring opening was investigated.     

An Efficient Synthesis of 3‐(1H‐Tetrazol‐5‐yl)coumarins (=3‐(1H‐Tetrazol‐5‐yl)‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐2‐ones) via Domino Knoevenagel Condensation,Pinner Reaction,and 1,3‐Dipolar Cycloaddition in Water

A novel straightforward synthesis of 3‐(1H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl)coumarins (=3‐(1H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl)‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐2‐ones) 6 via domino Knoevenagel condensation, Pinner reaction, and 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of substituted salicylaldehydes (=2‐hydroxybenzaldehydes), malononitrile (propanedinitrile), and sodium azide in H₂O is reported (Scheme 1 and Table 2). This general protocol provides a wide variety of 3‐(1H‐tetrazol‐5‐yl)coumarins in good yields under mild reaction conditions.

An efficient one‐pot synthesis of 3‐[(4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrol‐3‐yl)carbonyl]‐2H‐chromen‐2‐one (=3‐[(4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrol‐3yl)carbonyl]‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐2‐one) derivatives 4 by a four‐component reaction of a salicylaldehyde 1 , 4‐hydroxy‐6‐methyl‐2H‐pyran‐2‐one, a benzylamine 2 , and a diaroylacetylene (=1,4‐diarylbut‐2‐yne‐1,4‐dione) 3 in EtOH is reported. This new protocol has the advantages of high yields (Table), and convenient operation. The structures of these coumarin (=2H‐1‐benzopyran‐2‐one) derivatives, which are important compounds in organic chemistry, were confirmed spectroscopically (IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, and EI‐MS) and by elemental analyses. A plausible mechanism for this reaction is proposed (Scheme 2).     

Electro‐Oxidation of 3,4‐Dihydroxybenzoic Acid in the Presence of 6‐Methyl‐1,2,4‐Triazine‐3‐Thione‐5‐One: Unique Synthesis of 7H‐Thiazolo[3,2‐b]‐1,2,4‐Triazin‐7‐One Derivative in Aqueous Media

The electrochemical oxidation of 3,4‐dihydroxy benzoic acid ( 1 ) has been studied in the presence of 6‐methyl‐1,2,4‐triazine‐3‐thione‐5‐one ( 2 ) in aqueous solution. The oxidation mechanism of 1 and its reaction in the presence of 2 was offered. It was confirmed that 1 is converted to 7H‐thiazolo[3,2‐b]‐1,2,4‐triazin‐7‐one derivative 5 through Michael addition reaction of 2 to anodically generated o‐benzoquinone. The results of the research were used for electrochemical synthesis of 5 in an undivided cell in good yield and purity.
