Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene

The reaction between ketoximes CH₃(RCH₂)C = NOH and acetylene in the presence of KOH and dimethyl sulfoxide at 120°C leads exclusively to 1-vinyl-2-methyl-3-R-pyrroles in 73–87% yields. The regiospecificity of the reaction is disrupted when the temperature is raised, and the fraction of a second isomer (1-vinyl-2-RCH₂-pyrrole) reaches 20–50% at 140°C. Regioselectivity is not observed for R¹CH₂(R²CH₂)C = NOH (R¹ and R² = n-alkyl). The relative shifts of the signals of the ring protons and the vinyl group for a number of 2-alkyl-1-vinyl- and 2,3-dialkyl-1-vinylpyrroles were measured. Alkyl substituents have a distinct effect on the chemical shifts of the protons of the 4–5 bonds. As the volume of the 2-alkyl substituent increases the protons of the N-vinyl group are deshielded by 0.10–0.13 ppm, and the 4-H ring proton is shielded by 0.05–0.16 ppm; this is explained by steric inhibition of the p- conjugation in the N-vinyl group during an s-trans(anti)-gauche conformational transition.This is actually communication XVI. The first publications (for example, see [1–3] and the literature cited in them) were not numbered.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 54–59, January, 1978.     

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene

On the basis of a comparative study and analysis of the chemical shifts in the ¹³C NMR spectra of 1-vinyl-2-arylpyrroles and 3-alkyl-1-vinyl-2-phenylpyrroles, as well as 2-phenyl- and 1-ethyl-2-phenylpyrroles, it was established that the effects of substituents in the investigated series are transmitted via a mechanism involving conjugation and induction; the conductivity and polarizability of the 2-arylpyrrole system increase when a vinyl group is introduced in the 1 position or, in the case of the 1-vinylpyrrole system, when a phenyl group is introduced in the 2 position; this is due to the increase in the degree of overall conjugation.See [1] for communication IV.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 768–772, June, 1978.     

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene

The ¹³C NMR spectra of eight 2-alkyl- and 2,3-dialkyl-1-vinylpyrroles were studied. The ¹³C chemical shifts of all of the carbon atoms of the ring and the vinyl group depend substantially on the position and structure of the alkyl substituent. As the branched character of the alkyl group in the 2 position increases, the signal of the -carbon atom of the vinyl group is shifted to weak field due to weakening of the p- conjugation in the N-vinyl group because of disruption of its coplanarity with the pyrrole ring. The conjugation between the double bond and the pyrrole system involves competition for possession of the p electrons of the nitrogen atom.See [16] for communication II.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 350–354, March, 1978.     

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene

The respective 2-aryl- and N-vinyl-2-arylpyrroles were obtained by the reaction of the oximes of alkyl aryl ketones with acetylene in the superbasic medium MOH (M=Li, K)-DMSO. Their yields depended largely on the structure of the ketoximes and on the reaction conditions.For Communication 41, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 609–613, May, 1992.

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene

A series of previously unknown trifluoroacetyl derivatives of pyrroles were obtained with high yields by the reaction of pyrroles, including N-vinyl-substituted pyrroles, with trifluoroacetic anhydride in the presence of pyridine at room temperature.

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene. 30. The synthesis of 3-alkyl-2-arylpyrroles

Conditions were found for the synthesis of 3-alkyl-2-arylpyrroles using the Trofimov reaction at 50–70 °C both at elevated and atmospheric pressure. O-Vinyloximes and 3H-5-hydroxy-4,5-dihydropyrroles were isolated as intermediates.Communication 29, see ref. [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1501–1505, November, 1985.     

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene.

2-Aryl- and 1-viny1-2-pyrroles were synthesized by condensation of p-substituted acetophenone oximes with acetylene under pressure in superalkaline media (KOH/DMSO). The initially formed nitrogen-unsubstituted pyrroles can be vinylated in the presence of acetylene. Lithium hydroxide, which is completely inactive in the vinylation step, was found to be a selective catalyst for the construction of a pyrrole ring from oximes of aliphatic aromatic ketones. In the case of aliphatic and cycloaliphatic ketoximes (for example, cyclohexanone oxime) LiOH has virtually no catalytic effect on the reaction. The yields of 1-viny1-2-ary1-pyrroles depend substantially on the substituent in the phenyl ring. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by the IR, PMR, UV, and ¹³C NMR spectra.See [1] for communication II.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 489–491, April, 1978.

One-pot synthesis of 2-amino-3,4-dicyanopyridines from ketoximes and tetracyanoethylene via Cu(I)-catalyzed cyclization

A novel approach to 2-amino-3,4-dicyanopyridines has been discovered from Cu(I)-catalyzed cyclizations of simple and easily available ketoximes and tetracyanoethylene (TCNE). The complexed radical mechanism involves cleavage of several OH/NO/CH bonds, and new CC/CN bonds formation. A wide variety of substrates with different functional groups could be smoothly converted into the corresponding products in moderate yields.

Pyrroles from ketoximes and acetylene. 19. Regioselectivity of the reaction of alkyl benzyl ketoximes with acetylene

Alkyl benzyl ketoximes react with acetylene at 60–150 °C in MOH-dimethyl sulfoxide (M = Li, K) primarily by means of the methylene group of the benzyl grouping, which is primarily anti-oriented with respect to the hydroxy group, to give 2-alkyl-3-phenylpyrroles in greater than 70% yields. The specific participation of the antimethylene group in the construction of a pyrrole ring constitutes evidence against mechanisms that include a [3,3]-sigmatropic shift in O-vinyl oximes. It follows from the results obtained that the reaction proceeds through an anti-dianion of the benzyl type stabilized by conjugation with the aromatic ring.See [1] for communication 18.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 193–198, February, 1982.
