5,6-Dihydro-4-hydroxy-6,6-dimethyl-2H-thiopyrane-2-thione (1 I) and its tautomer 2-mercapto-4H-thiopyrane-4-one (1 II) react with aliphatic aldehydes under different reaction conditions to yield mainly 5R-7,8-dihydro-2H,5H,6H-thiopyrano[2,3—b:6,5—b′]-bisthiopyran-4,6(3H)-diones2 and 2′R,4′R-5,6,6′,7′-tetrahydro-2-thioxo-spiro(4H-thiopyran-3(2H), 3′(4′H)-2′H,5′H-thiopyrano-[2,3—b]-thiopyran)-4,5′-diones3. The mechanisms of formation of the condensates2 and3 and their stereochemistry are discussed. The reaction yielding2 is analogous to the condensation of dimedone with subsequent anhydride formation.3 might be generated byDiels-Adler reaction of intermediately formed 2-thioxo-3-alkylidenethiopyranones4. An X-ray crystal structure analysis was carried out on3 b to establish its configuration and conformation.     

Synthese von 1-substituierten 4-Amino-2(1H)-pyridinthionen durchDimroth-Umlagerung aus 2,4-Diaminothiopyranyliumhalogeniden

4-Amino-2-alkylimino-2H-thiopyranes (5) and 4-amino-2-alkylaminothiopyranylium halogenides (4) resp. on heating in refluxingDMFA are rearranged in the presence of Na-ethylate to 1-alkyl-4-aminodihydro-2(1H)-pyridinethiones (2). Also 2-methylthiothiopyranylidenammonium iodides (6) and 2-methylthio-4H-thiopyrane-4-one (7) can be transformed into 1-substituted 2(1 H)-pyridinethiones (2) by heating in prim. amines. On treatment with alkali. 4-dimethylaminothiopyranylium iodide (4 a) is transformed into its base5 a and hydrolyzed to8. 5a and8 are rearranged to the pyridinethiones2 a and the tautomers9 A,B. The structure of the rearranged pyridinethiones2 was proved by the1-phenylderivate2 a. Thus 4-methyl-3-penten-2-on reacts with phenylthiourea via the phenylimino-1,3-thiazine (14) to give 3-phenyl-2(1H)pyridinethione (15).15 is transformed by themethylpyrimidine-pyridine-rearrangement to the 1-phenylpyridinethione2 a. The mechanism of theDimroth-reaction of 2-alkylimino-2H-thiopyranes (5) and the stereochemistry of the1-benzyl-6-phenyl-2(1H)-pyridinethiones2 are discussed.     

Triazolo[4′,3′:4,5] [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one

3-Methyl-6H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4′,3′: 4,5] [1,3,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-6-one (6) has been synthesized by the condensation of isatoic anhydride (1) with 4-amino-5-mercapto-3-methyl-[1,2,4]triazole (2) and final cyclisation of the intermediate3 with POCl₃ and PCl₃.

One-pot microwave-assisted solvent-free synthesis,theoretical and experimental studies on barrier rotation of C–N bond of N-alkenyl-1,2,3-triazoles

The reactions on benzotriazoles continue to happen to reach interesting varieties of their derivatives. This study reports a fast one-pot microwave-assisted solvent-free synthesis of N-alkenyl-1,2,3-benzotriazole (3, 5, and 7) and 1-(2-Alkyloxycarbonyl-vinyl)-1H-[1–3] triazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (8 and 9) derivatives by nucleophilic addition reactions of 1,2,3-benzotriazole (C₆H₅N₃) (1) and 1H-[1–3] triazole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (C₄H₄N₃O₂) (1′) with R-propiolates (R = Me, Et; 2 & 4) and phenylacetylene 6 in good yields. The values of activation energy for rotation around C–N bond in the synthesized N-alkenyl-1,2,3-triazole compounds were studied by DFT-B3LYP/6-31G* method.     

Naphthologs of overcrowded bistricyclic aromatic enes: (E)-bisbenzo[a]fluorenylidene

(E)-11H-Bisbenzo[a]fluorenylidene (E-6) was synthesized by Barton’s double extrusion diazo-thione coupling method from 11H-benzo[a]fluoren-11-thione (11) and 11-diazo-11H-benzo[a]fluorene (13). The reaction is probably thermodynamically controlled; in the event that the less stable Z -6 is also formed, it would rapidly undergo Z → E diastereomerization to give E -6. The B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) calculated diastereomerization barrier for Z -6 → E -6 is ΔG ₂₉₈ = 57.0 kJ/mol (13.6 kcal/mol). The calculated equilibrium constant K _eq(E -6 → Z -6) = 92:8 (at 298 K) is indicative of a marked diastereoselectivity of the reaction leading to E -6. The structure of E-6 was established by ¹H-NMR and ¹³C-NMR spectroscopies and by X-ray analysis. PAE E-6 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. The unit cell of the crystal structure E -6 contains eight molecules, arranged as four pairs of enantiomers. PAE E -6 adopts a twisted conformation with the pure twist of the central C¹¹=C^11′ bond ω = 39°. The dihedral angle ν in E -6 is 60.6°, which is significantly higher than the respective dihedral angle in PAEs Z -6, 2, E -7, Z -7, 14, and 15. The large syn-pyramidalization angles at C¹¹ and C^11′ (χ = 12.6° and 14.8°) of E-6 indicates the enhanced strain in the fjord regions of the molecule. The enhanced twist is primarily attributed to the double benzo[a]annelation of the bifluorenylidene moiety at the fjord regions. The B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) calculated structure of E -6 is in a very good agreement with the experimental X-ray structure. PAE E -6 adopts a twisted conformation in solution, with the downfield chemical shift of H¹/H^1′ (8.31 ppm); H¹⁰/H^10′ (δ = 7.20 ppm) and H⁹/H^9′ (δ = 6.86 ppm) in E -6 are positioned above the planes of the opposing naphthalene rings. PAEs E -6 and Z -6 are significantly higher in energy than their corresponding benzo[b]annelated isomers E -7 and Z -7.

Hydrolysis of the 4-alkyliminothiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridinedioles (5) and 4-alkylaminothiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridones (6) resp. with 10% NaOH gives 5,7-dihydroxy-2H-thiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-4(3H)-one (7).7 can be obtained in better yield by reaction of 4-dimethylamino-2(1H)-pyridinethione (8) with bistrichlorphenylethylamlonate (2). Aminolysis of7 affords the two isomeric products5 and6. On treatment with hydrazines,7 reacts only to 4-hydrazonoderivatives5. By heating in bromobenzene5d is cyclisized to 1H-5,1,2,6-thiatriaza-acenaphthylen-7-ol (11). On methylation with methyljodide5,6 and7 furnish the 7-methoxyproducts13,14 and12. By heating in 20% NaOH7 is transformed into the 2-thioxo-3-pyridylmethylketone16 A and its tautomer, 2-mercapto-3-pyridylmethylketone16 B. The structures of5,6 and7 are discussed.     

Zur Chemie der 5-Alkylamino-4H-thiopyrano[2,3-b]pyridin-4-one

4-Alkylaminopyridinethiones · HCl (1 · HCl) react with bis-trichlorethylmalonate (3) predominantly to 5-alkylamino-4H-thiopyrano [2,3-b]pyridine-4-ones (6). With alcohols in the presence of acids at 25°C6 undergoes an alcoholysis to the corresponding alkyl-3-(2-thioxo-3-pyridyl)propionates (9). On heating in dilute alkali6 is hydrolysed via 4-alkylamino-2-thioxopyridyl-propylketones (11) to the tautomers, 4-hydroxy-2-thioxopyridylpropylketone (12 A) and 2-thioxo-3-(1-hydroxybutenyl)-4-piperidon (12 B), resp. On refluxing with alkali the ethyl-pyridylpropionate9 a is cyclisized to the 1-alkyl-1,6-naphthyridine-2(1H)-one (4 a), but boiling in ethanolic acid hydrolyses9 a via the pyridylpropionic acid10 to 4-alkyl-aminopyridylpropylketone (11 a). The latter can be transformed via the tautomers12 A,B and 2-methylthio-3-pyridylpropylketone (13) to the 4-hydroxy-3-butyrylpyridone (14 A) and its tautomer, 3-(1-hydroxy-butenyl)-piperidine-2,4-diones (14 B) resp. The structure of14 A,B is established by reaction of 4-isopropylamino-2(1H)-pyridone (2) with butanoylchloride to the 4-isopropylamino-3-butyrypyridone (15) and hydrolysis of15 to the tautomers14 A,B.     

Strukturelle Abwandlungen an Nukleotiden,Nukleosiden und Nukleosidbasen mit β-Acylvinylphosphoniumsalzen

β-Acetylvinyl-triphenylphosphonium bromide1 reacts with CMP to form the 3,N⁴-etheno-derivative {[6-(5′-phosphoribofuranosyl)-2-methyl-5-oxo-imidazo [1.2-c]pyrimidin-3-yl]-methyl}triphenyl-phosphonium bromide (2). Guanine affords mainly the lin. condensation product [(6-methyl-9-oxo-imidazo[1.2-a]-purin-7-yl)-methyl]triphenylphosphonium bromide (3) and the angular tricyclic product [(6-methyl-9-oxo-imidazo[2.1-b]purin-5-yl)-methyl]-triphenylphosphonium bromide (4). For comparison we synthesized the angular condensed heterocycle5, (6.8-dimethyl-9-oxo-imidazo[2.1-b]purin-5-yl)-methyl]triphenylphosphonium bromide, by reaction of 1-methylguanine with1, and the corresponding linear derivative6 [(4.6-dimethyl-9-oxo-imidazo[1.2-a]purin-7-yl)-methyl]-triphenylphosphoniumbromide from 3-methylguanine and1. AHofmann-type degradation of3 with the anion of diethyl malonate led to7, diethyl (6-methyl-9-oxo-imidazo[1.2-a]purin-7-yl)-methylmalonate, a compound whose structure resembles some Y-bases in t-RNA.Wittig reaction of the silylated nucleoside derivative8 a {[2-methyl-5-oxo-6-(2′.3′.5′-tris-trimethylsilyl)-ribofuranosyl-imidazo[1.2-c]pyrimidin-3-yl]methyl}-triphenylphosphonium bromide, with C₆H₅CHO resulted in the 2-methyl-3(ω-styryl)-6[2′.3′.5′-tris-(trimethylsilyl)]ribofuranosyl-imidazo[1.2-c] pyrimidin-5-one (9).     

Zur Kenntnis der Substitutionsprodukte der (2H)-Imidazol-4(3H)-thione und 2H-Imidazol-4(3H)-one

2H-Imidazole-4(3H)-thiones (a), available from methyl alkyl and methyl aryl ketones with sulfur and ammonia, react via their corresponding N-sodium compounds or in presence of tert. amines with alkyl and aryl carboxylic acid chlorides to give the corresponding intensely coloured (orange to violett) cryst. 3-acyl-2H-imidazole-4(3H)-thiones4 a-q and6–26. With dicarboxylic acid dichlorides the colourless cryst. N,N′-diacyl-bis-3-imidazoline-5-thiones5 a-d and27–32 are obtained. With carbamic acid chlorides and chloroformic acid esters the corresponding urea (33–35) and urethane derivatives36, 37 are formed. In an analogous way 2H-imidazol-4(3H)-ones react with acid chlorides to 3-acyl-2-imidazol-4(3H)-ones (44–50), which can also be obtained by treating the corresponding 3-acyl-2H-imidazole-4(3H)-thione with KMnO₄.     

Über cyclische Guanidin—Mesityloxid- und Guanidin—Phoron-Kondensate

The basic product synthesized byTraube andSchwarz from mesityl oxide and guanidine has not been 4.4.6-trimethyl-4.5-dihydro-2-pyrimidinamine (1), but a mixture containing the 4.4.6-trimethyl-3.4-dihydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinimine (resp. an isomeric pyrimidinamine)2 a (resp.2 b, 2 c) and the dimeric 4.4′-methylenedi[2(1H)-pyrimidinimine] (resp. an isomeric methylenedipyrimidinamine)3 a (resp.3 b, 2 c) and the dimerisation reaction were studied in a series of experiments. The product of the reaction of guanidine and phorone is not the guanidinopropylpyrimidine8 ⁴, but the 4.4′-spirobi[2(1H)-pyrimidinimine] (resp. a spirobipyrimidinamine)11 a (resp.11 b, 11 c). No determination was possible on the basis of NMR whether the condensation products of guanidine—in solutions ofDMSO-d₆—are pyrimidinimines (2 a, 3 a, 11 a) or pyrimidinamines (2 b resp.2 c, 3 b resp.3 c, 11 b resp.11 c) or mixtures of the isomeric compounds. The NMR-and mass spectra of2 a (resp.2 b, 2 c),3 a (resp.3 b, 3 c),11 a (resp.11 b, 11 c) and their derivates are discussed.     

Syntheses, characterization and crystal structures of new mono- and bis-Schiff base compounds derived from 1,2,4-triazine and the silver(I) complexes containing mono-Schiff base ligands

Some new Schiff bases, (Z)-4-amino-3-((E)-(R-methoxybenzylidene)hydrazono)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one (R?=?2 (L2), R?=?3 (L3) and R?=?4 (L4)), were synthesized by the condensation reactions of 4-amino-3-hydrazinyl-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (L1) and corresponding methoxybenzaldehyde in a molar ratio 1:1.5 in high yields. The reaction of L2 and L4 with an excess amount of the corresponding aldehydes gave the unsymmetrical bis-Schiff bases (E)-3-((E)-(R-methoxybenzylidene)hydrazono)-4-((E)-R-methoxybenzylideneamino)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2,4-triazin-5(2H)-one (R?=?2 (L22) and R?=?4 (L44)), respectively. Furthermore, the reaction of L2?CL4 with silver(I) nitrate in a molar ratio 2:1 led to the silver(I)-complexes with the general formula [Ag(Lx)₂]NO₃ (Lx?=?L2 (2), L3 (3) and L4 (4)). All synthesized Schiff base compounds and complexes were characterized by a combination of IR-, ¹H-NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. In addition, the structures of L2, L4·CH₃CN, L22·CH₃OH and L44·CH₃OH and complexes 2 and 4 were determined by X-ray diffraction studies.     

Helix-sense-selective radical polymerization of bulky styrenic monomers: chiral induction and liquid crystallinity

Eight chiral vinylterphenyl monomers,(+)-2,5-bis{4′-[(S)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene(Ia),(+)-2,5-bis{4′-[(S)-2″-methylbutyloxy]phenyl}styrene(Ib),(+)-2,5-bis{4′-[(S)-3″-methylpentyloxy]phenyl}styrene(Ic),(+)-2,5-bis{4′-[(S)-4″-methylhexyloxy]phenyl}styrene(Id),(?)-2,5-bis{4′-[(R)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene(Ie),(+)-2-{4′-[(S)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}-5-{4′-[(R)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene(IIa),(?)-2-{4′-[(R)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}-5-{4′-[(S)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene(IIb),and(+)-2-{4′-[(S)-2′′-methylbutyloxy]phenyl}-5-{4′-[(S)-1″-methylpropyloxy]phenyl}styrene(III),were synthesized and radically polymerized.These molecules were designed to further understand long-range chirality transfer in radical polymerization and to possibly tune the chiroptical properties of the polymers by varying the spatial configuration,position,and various combination of the stereogenic centers at the ends of p-terphenyl pendants.The resultant polymers adopted helical conformations with a predominant screw sense.When the stereogenic centers ran away from the terphenyl group as in Ib?d,the corresponding polymers changed the direction of optical rotation in an alternative way and showed no obvious stereomutation upon annealing in tetrahydrofuran.The two stereogenic centers of IIa,IIb,and III acted concertedly in chiral induction,whereas those of Ia and Ie played a counteractive role.The five polymers derived from Ia,Ie,IIa,IIb,and III underwent stereomutation when annealed in tetrahydrofuran.The polymers PIa?e had good thermal stability and high glass transition temperatures(Tgs).They generated liquid crystalline phases at above Tgs that could be kept upon cooling,with the exception of PIe.This result was consistent with the extended helical structures.

Furoxan 6b can undergo thermal rearrangement into 3-[(tert-butyl-NNO-azoxy)(nitro)methyl]-5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole (7), prolonged heating of which gives N-(2-tert-butyl-5-nitro-1-oxido-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)acetamide (8). With the transformation 7 → 8 as an example, the possibility of participation of the azoxy group in the Boulton-Katritzky rearrangements was demonstrated for the first time.     

Über substituierte 1,6-Dihydro-1,3,5-triazin-2,4-diamine, 1′,5′,6′,7′-Tetrahydrospiro[cyclopentan-1,4′-cyclopentapyrimidin]-2′(3′ H)-imine und das 6-Phenyl-2,4-pyrimidindiamin

Guanidine reacts with cyclohexanone, cycloheptanone, acetone and 3-pentanone, resp., in a molar ratio 2∶1 to give the 1,3,5-triazaspiro[5.5]undeca-and [5.6]dodeca-1,3-dien-2,4-diamines3 a and3 b resp. and the 6,6-dimethylresp. diethyl-1,6-dihydro-1,3,5-triazin-2,4-diamines3 d and3 e resp. On the contrary, action of guanidine on cyclopentanone yields not3 c, but the 1′,5′,7′-tetrahydrospiro[cyclopentane-1,4′-cyclopentapyrimidine]-2′(3′H)-imines2 c, 5 c and6 c resp., which are 1∶2- and 1∶3-condensates. Phenylacetone is transformed by guanidine (1∶2) to give 6-phenyl-2,4-pyrimidindiamine (8 f). The structure of the compounds cited is proved by NMR-, IR-, and (partially) mass spectra. The different courses of the formation of3 a, b, d, e, 2 c, 5 c and6 c resp. and8 f are also discussed. The structural formulae of some additional bases, which were synthesized from guanidine and cyclopentanone, 3-pentanone and phenylacetone resp. could not be established.     

Anion-directed organized assemblies of protonated pyrazole-based ionic salts

The reactions of 3(5)-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5(3)-phenyl-1H-pyrazole (L ¹ ) with nitric acid and 5-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)-3-(furan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole(L ² ) with hydrochloric acid produced [HL ¹ · NO₃] (Salt-1) and [HL ² · Cl] (Salt-2). The structures of Salt-1 and Salt-2 were determined by single crystal X-diffraction. In Salt-1, HL ¹ showed [2 + 2] binding of NO₃ ^? ions in the solid state to form dimer architecture with R ₁ ² (4) and R ₄ ⁴ (14) graph sets. An anion directed one-dimensional anion-assisted helical chain with active participation of the chloride ion and protonated pyrazole via N–H···Cl hydrogen bonding in Salt-2. In addition, the protonated HL ² molecules interacted with each other through weak C–H···π interactions resulting in the formation of another one-dimensional helical chain.     

First MnIII complexes with tetradentate (N2O2) Schiff bases and tricyanomethanide: synthesis,crystal structure,and magnetic properties

The first Mn^III complexes with Schiff bases and tricyanomethanide-anion were synthesized: [Mn(salen)C(CN)₃(H₂O)] (1), [Mn(5-Brsalen)C(CN)₃(H₂O)] (2), [Mn(salpn)C(CN)₃(H₂O)] (3), [Mn(3-MeOsalen)C(CN)₃(H₂O)] (4), [Mn(5-Brsalen)(MeOH)(H₂O)][C(CN)₃] (5), and [Mn(3-MeOsalpn)(H₂O)₂][C(CN)₃] (6), where SalenH₂ is N,N′-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine, 5-BrsalenH₂ is N,N′-bis(5-bromosalicylidene)ethylenediamine, SalpnH₂ is N,N′-bis-(salicylidene)-1,3-diaminopropane, 3-MeOsalenH₂ is N,N′-bis(3-methoxysalicylidene)-ethylenediamine, 3-MeOsalpnH₂ — N,N′-bis(3-methoxysalicylidene)-1,3-diaminopropane. The tricyanomethanide anion in complexes 1–4 acts as a the terminal ligand, whereas in complexes 5 and 6 tricyanomethanide is not coordinated by Mn^III and acts as an out-of-sphere counterion. The structures of complexes 1–4 are characterized by the formation of dimers due to hydrogen bonds between the water molecules and oxygen atoms of the Schiff bases. The Mn...Mn distances inside the dimers are 4.69–5.41 Å. Complex 6 has a zigzag chain structure consisting of the [Mn(3-MeOsalpn)(H₂O)₂]⁺ cations bound by double bridging aqua ligands. The study of the magnetic properties of complexes 1, 3, 4, and 6 showed the existence of antiferromagnetic interactions between the Mn^III ions through the system of hydrogen bonds.

Their structures were confirmed by spectral and analytical data. The synthesized compounds were investigated for antimicrobial activities. The antimicrobial screening showed that many of these obtained compounds have good activities comparable to Streptomycin and Fusidic acid as reference drugs.

Their one- and two-photon absorption (TPA) and excited fluorescence properties have been experimentally investigated. The two-photon absorption cross-sections of two compounds were estimated by two-photon excited fluorescence technique using 200 fs, 76 MHz, Ti:sapphire laser, which are 22 and 154 GM for BCSPC and BCPBC, respectively. The optimal excitation wavelengths are 780 nm for both BCSPC and BCPBC. A data recording experiment proved the potential application of the materials.
