3-Aroyl-6-bromochromen-2-ones and 2-benzoylbenzo[f]chromen-3-one reacted with zinc enolates derived from 1-aryl-2-bromoalkanones and 1-aryl-2-bromo-2-phenylethanone to give, respectively, 4-(1-alkyl-2-aryl-2-oxoethyl)-3-aroyl-6-bromochroman-2-ones and 1-(2-aroyl-1-methyl-2-oxoethyl)-2-benzoyl-1,2-dihydrobenzo[f]chromen-3-ones as a single stereoisomer. Treatment with acetic anhydride of the intermediate product obtained from 3-benzoyl-6-bromochromen-2-one and [1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-phenylethen-1-yloxy]-zinc(II) bromide resulted in the formation of 3-(1-acetoxy-1-phenylmethylidene)-6-bromo-4-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxo-1-phenylethyl]chroman-2-one.     

Reactions of zinc enolates derived from α,α-dibromo carbonyl compounds with 3-(2-oxo-4a,8a-dihydro-2H-chromene-3-carbonyl)chromen-2-one

Zinc enolates derived from 1-R-2,2-dibromoethanone reacted with 3-(2-oxo-4a,8a-dihydro-2H-chromene-3-carbonyl)chromen-2-one to give the corresponding 1-R-1a-{(1-R-2-oxo-1,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromen-1(2H)-yl)carbonyl}-1a,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromen-2(1H]-ones as a single diastereoisomer with cis arrangement of the hydrogen atoms with respect to the cyclopropane ring plane. Reactions of the same electrophilic substrate with zinc enolates obtained from 1-aryl-2,2-dibromoalkanones led to the formation of 1-alkyl-1a-{(1-alkyl-1-aroyl-2-oxo-1,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromen-1(2H)-yl)carbonyl}-1-aroyl-1a,7b-dihydrocyclopropa[c]chromen-2(1H)-ones as a single diastereoisomer with trans arrangement of the alkyl group and hydrogen atom with respect to the cyclopropane ring plane.     

4-Amino-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-one aus Bortrifluorid-katalysierten Umsetzungen von 3-Amino-2H-azirinen mit Carbonsäure-Derivaten

4-Amino-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones from Boron Trifluoride Catalyzed Reactions of 3-Amino-2H-azirines with Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Reaction of 3-amino-2H-azirines 1 with ethyl 2-nitroacetate ( 6a ) in refluxing MeCN affords 4-amino-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones 7 and 3,6-diamino-2,5-dihydropyrazines 8 , the dimerization product of 1 (Scheme 2). Thus, 6a reacts with 1 as a CH-acidic compound by C? C bond formation via C-nucleophilic attack of deprotonated 6a onto the amidinium-C-atom of protonated 1 (Scheme 5). The scope of this reaction seems to be rather limited as 1 and 2-substituted 2-nitroacetates do not give any products besides the azirine dimer 8 (see Table 1). Sodium enolates of carboxylic esters and carboxamides 11 react with 1 under BF₃ catalysis to give 4-amino-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-ones 12 in 50–80% yield (Scheme 3, Table 2). In an analogous reaction, 3-amino-2H-pyrrole 13 is formed from 1c and the Li-enolate of acetophenone (Scheme 4). A reaction mechanism for the ring enlargement of 1 involving BF₃ catalysis is proposed in Scheme 6.

Chlorination of 4-methyl-8-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H,1,5-benzodiazepin-2-one

The results of the chlorination of 4-methyl-8-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H,1,5-benzodiazepin-2-ones are compared with the results of quantum-chemical calculations of 4-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-ones with various substituents in the benzene ring in the case of homolytic halogenation. The chlorination of 4-methyl-8-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-one (I) with N-chlorosuccinimide leads to 3-chloro- and 3,3-dichloro-4-methyl-8-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepin-2-ones, whereas chlorination with sulfuryl chloride leads to 4-chloromethyl and 3,3-dichloro-4-methyl derivatives. The IR, PMR, and mass spectra of the synthesized compounds are presented.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1272–1274, September, 1981.

Zinc enolates derived from 1-aryl-2-bromo-2-phenylethanone react with alkyl 2-oxochromene-3-carboxylates and methyl 6-bromo-2-oxochromene-3-carboxylate to give, respectively, alkyl 4-(2-aryl-2-oxo-1-phenylethyl)-2-oxochroman-3-carboxylates and methyl 6-bromo-4-(2-aryl-2-oxo-1-phenylethyl)-2-oxochroman-3-carboxylate as a single stereoisomer.

Synthesis of oligomers of trans-(4S,5R)-4-carboxybenzyl 5-methyl oxazolidin-2-one: an approach to new foldamers.

The synthesis of two oligomers containing three and four residues, respectively, of trans-(4S,5R)-4-carboxy 5-methyloxazolidin-2-ones is described. The monomer is obtained by starting from benzyl-N-Boc-(3R)-aminobutanoate, by cyclization into the corresponding trans-(2S,3R)-2-carboxybenzyl-3-methyl-N-Boc-aziridine and rearrangement of the product to trans-(4S,5R)-4-carboxybenzyl-5- methyloxazolidin-2-one, catalyzed by Sn(OTf)2. The oligomers are synthesized by activating the carboxy group as its pentaflourophenyl ester. The trimer and the tetramer are obtained in good yield, and their 1H NMR spectra suggest that these molecules fold in ordered structures, where the C-4 hydrogen of a ring is always close to the carbonyl of the next ring. This result shows that the 4-carboxy-5-substituted-oxazolidin-2-ones are a new class of pseudoprolines which fully control the formation of a Xaai-1-Proi peptide bond in the trans conformation and are complementary to the pseudoprolines obtained from cyclocondensation of cysteine, serine, or threonine and aldehydes or ketones, which strongly favor the Xaai-1-Proi peptide bond in the cis conformation.     

New approach to 5-arylsulfonyl-substituted 1,2-dihydropyrimidin-2-ones via base-induced chloroform elimination from 4-trichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones

A four-step method for the synthesis of 5-arylsulfonyl-substituted 1,2-dihydropyrimidin-2-ones has been developed. The reaction of readily available N-[(1-acetoxy-2,2,2-trichloro)ethyl]ureas with sodium enolates of α-arylsulfonylketones followed by heterocyclization-dehydration of the oxoalkylureas formed gave 5-arylsulfonyl-4-trichloromethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones. The latter, in the presence of strong bases, eliminate CHCl₃ to give the target compounds.     

Selective Heck reaction of aryl bromides with cyclopent-2-en-1-one or cyclohex-2-en-1-one

The selective Heck reaction of cyclopent-2-en-1-one or cyclohex-2-en-1-one with aryl bromides gives a simple access to the corresponding 3-arylcycloalk-2-en-1-ones. The choice of the base was found to be crucial to avoid the formation of 3-arylcyclopentanones or 3-arylcyclohexanones as side-products. Using KF as base, DMF as solvent and Pd(OAc)₂ as catalyst, the target products were obtained in moderate to good yields with a variety of aryl bromides. Substituents such as fluoro, trifluoromethyl, acetyl, benzoyl, formyl, ester or nitrile on the aryl bromide are tolerated. Sterically congested aryl bromides or bromopyridines can also be employed.

Nucleophile-mediated ring expansion of 4-chloromethyl- and 4-mesyloxymethyl-5-tosyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones to 6-tosyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1,3-diazepin-2-ones: effect of the leaving group and the substituent at C6

A five-step synthesis of 4-chloromethyl- and 4-mesyloxymethyl-5-tosyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones has been developed. The reaction of N-[(2-benzoyloxy-1-tosyl)ethyl]urea with sodium enolates of α-tosylketones followed by cyclization-dehydration, and debenzoylation gave 4-hydroxymethyl-5-tosyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ones, which were transformed into the 4-chloromethyl- or 4-mesyloxymethyl-derivatives. Treatment of the latter with nucleophilic reagents, such as sodium cyanide, sodium diethyl malonate, sodium thiophenolate, or potassium phthalimide, afforded the corresponding 4,7-disubstituted 6-tosyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-1,3-diazepin-2-ones as a result of ring expansion. The effect of the leaving group and the substitution at the position C6 on the reactivity of the pyrimidines is discussed.

[reaction: see text] The addition of the titanium enolates of N-acetyl, N-propionyl, and N-bromoacetyl (R)-oxazolidin-2-ones to gamma-lactol 2, derived from (S)-glutamic acid, afforded trans- and cis-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans (trans/cis ratio: R = H, 2:1; R = Me, 8:1; R = Br, 10:1) after desilylation with aqueous HF/CH3CN. Chromatographic separation and LiBH4 reduction allowed the efficient preparation of the corresponding trans-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofuran diols and the recovery of the chiral auxiliary.     

Asymmetric synthesis of 2-aryl-2,3-dihydro-4-quinolones via bifunctional thiourea-mediated intramolecular cyclization

A novel asymmetric preparation of optically enriched 2-aryl-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones has been developed. By installing a sulfonyl group on the nitrogen of the anilines and an ester function on the unsaturated ketones, an intramolecular organocatalytic cyclization took place readily in a stereoselective manner, resulting in the formation of dihydroquinolones with high enantioselectivity.
