Recyclization of 2-(3,6-diaryl-2,5-dihydropyridazin-4-yl)-1H-benzimidazoles to 2-[(3,5-diarylpyrazol-4-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazoles

2-(3,6-Diaryl-2,5-dihydropyridazin-4-yl)-1H-benzimidazoles undergo a previously unknown type of recyclization of the pyridazine ring to a pyrazole to give 2-[(3,5-diarylpyrazol-4-yl)methyl]-1H-benzimidazoles. It is suggested that the mechanism of this conversion, which includes formation of a secondary enhydrazine group in the diazine ring and its subsequent contraction, occurs after the intramolecular formation and opening of a cyclopropane ring. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 853–861, June, 2008.     

1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of diazoalkanes onto dimethyl 1-(formylamino)ethylenephosphonate: a new route to 1-aminocyclopropanephosphonic acids and 3-phosphorylated pyrazoles

Diazoalkanes regiospecifically react with dimethyl 1-(formylamino)ethylenephosphonate (1a) to afford 5-substituted dimethyl 3-(formylamino)-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-phosphonates 2 in high yields. Their thermal decomposition followed by hydrolysis provides a straightforward access to 2-substituted 1-aminocyclopropanephosphonic acids 4. Aromatization of 2 under acidic conditions leads to 3-phosphorylated pyrazoles 5.     

13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts of 1-(2',4'-dinitrophenyl) and 1-(2',4',6'-trinitrophenyl) pyrazoles in the solid state and in solution

Electronic structures and electrophilic substitution in 2-(4-R-2-quinolyl)thiophenes and 5-(4-R-2-quinolyl)-2,2′-dithienyls

The electronic structures and reactivity indexes (RI) of 2-(4-R-2-quinolyl)thiophenes and 5-(4-R-2-quinolyl)-2,2-dithienyls (R = H, COOH, COOC₂H₅, and NHCOCH₃) and their protonated forms were calculated by the Pariser-Parr-Pople (PPP) method. The peculiarities of the geometrical and -electron structures were established. The calculated reactivity indexes are compared with experimental data on the electrophilic substitution reactions of the investigated compounds. A qualitative agreement between the calculated values and the experimental data was established. It is shown that quinoline derivatives of thiophene are less reactive than the corresponding dithienyl compounds in electrophilic substitution reactions.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 751–754, June, 1979.
