Rearrangement of 1-oxa-2-azoles. 5. Synthesis and rearrangement of α-oximodimethyl-hydrazones of 1,2,4-oxadiazolyl-3-glyoxal

The acid halides of 1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-carbohydroxamic acids react with formaldehyde dimethylhydrazone to give the corresponding -oximohydrazones, which with hydrochloric acid rearrange to yield the dimethylhydrazone of 3-amino-4-formylfurazane.

Synthesis of 2′,3′-dideoxynucleosides from 5-alkoxymethyluracils

Summary A modified synthesis of protected 2,3-dideoxyribose5 starting fromL-glutamic acid (1) is described. Reaction of5 with silylated 5-hydroxymethyluracil7 a and 5-alkoxymethyluracils7 b–e in the presence of trimethylsilyl triflate afforded an anomeric mixture of 2,3-dideoxyuridine derivatives8 a–e and9 a–e. Deprotection with methanolic ammonia and separation by chromatography gave the corresponding nucleosides10 a–e and11 a–e. Treatment of9 b–e with tri(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)phosphine oxide and subsequent reaction of12 b–e with ammonia in dioxane afforded the cytosine derivatives13 b–e which on treatment with methanolic ammonia gave the corresponding 2,3-dideoxycytidine derivatives14 b–e and15 b–e. In contrast with the parent compounds, these alkoxymethyl derivatives had no appreciable activity against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1).

Synthesis and properties of thiazole halohydrazones. 2. Interaction of 2-α-chlorobenzylidenehydrazino-4-ethoxy-carbonylthiazole with nucleophiles

In the interaction of 2--clzlorobenzylidenehydrazino-4-ethoxycarbonylthiazole with nucleophiles, two competing reactions take place. 1) nucleophilic replacement of the chlorine atom to form the corresponding substitution product; 2) elimination of a hydrogen chloride molecule, concluding in cyclization of the intermediate nitrilimine to form 3 phenyl-5-ethoxycarbonylthiazolo(2, 3-c]-1, 2, 4-triazole. The direction taken by the interaction depends on the nature of the nucleophile and is determined primarily by the ratio of basicity and nucleophilicity of the agent.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, 256–259, February, 1994.
