Syntheses and conformational structures of functionalized tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines

The syntheses and conformational structures of various functionalized tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines were studied. Applying the fragment coupling approach and the post-macrocyclization chemical manipulations, a number of tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines that contain, on the lower rim, one or two aldehyde, ester, carboxylic acid, hydroxymethyl, and aminomethyl functional groups were prepared in moderate to high chemical yields from cheap and commercially available materials. On the basis of X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy, all tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines containing electron-withdrawing group(s) adopted 1,3-alternate conformation both in solution and in the solid state, while tetraoxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines bearing hydroxymethyl and aminomethyl substituent(s) existed as pinched or distorted partial cone conformers due to the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bond between hydroxyl or amino group and triazine ring.     

NMR studies of conformations and dynamic processes—1 : [24]cyclophanes with ethylene bridges

The conformations and dynamic processes in a series of relatively unstrained [2₄]paracyclophanes (with one, two or four -CH₂-CH₂-bridges) and some closely related compounds have been analysed. Their ¹NMR spectra have been recorded at low temperatures and the temperature dependence rationalised as being due to essentially two types of dynamic process-the torsional motion around the sp³-sp³ C-C bonds in the bridges, and the rotation around the sp²-sp³ C-C bonds adjacent to the benzene rings. The barriers to the former process are similar for the series of cyclophanes 1–6 and are due to steric and electronic interactions in the syn-oriented transition states. In cyclophanes 7–9, in which anti-orientations of the aromatic rings are possible, the barriers are lower. The latter process, involving the rotation of the benzene rings, becomes important at temperatures below 150 K and has not been further analysed.     

Syntheses of 1,4-benzothiazepines and 1,4-benzoxazepines via cyclizations of 1-[2-arylthio(oxy)ethyl]-5-benzotriazolyl-2-pyrrolidinones and 3-benzotriazolyl-2-[2-arylthio(oxy)ethyl]-1-isoindolinones

1-[2-Arylthio(oxy)ethyl]-5-benzotriazolyl-2-pyrrolidinones 6a-e, 12 and 3-benzotriazolyl-2-[2-arylthio(oxy)ethyl]-1-isoindolinones 9a-f, 14 are readily available from reactions of benzotriazole (4), 2-(arylsulfanyl)ethylamines 3, or 2-phenoxyethylamine (11) with 2,5-dimethoxy-2,5-dihydrofuran (5) or 2-formylbenzoic acid (8). Lewis acid mediated cyclizations of 6 and 9 produced novel 1,4-benzothiazepines 7a-e and 10a-f, respectively. Cyclizations of 12 and 14 gave 1,4-benzoxazepines 13 and 15, respectively.     

Electronic states of the [2 n ]cyclophanes

Low energy singlet and triplet states for a series of [2 _n ]cyclophanes are discussed in terms of the results of a simple model calculation. Experimental trends can be explained under the assumption of significant - interaction involving the saturated bridges. This interaction destabilizes low energy excimer states, in contrast to the usual red shift observed for alkylbenzenes. The observed near-constancy of the onset of the absorption spectra can be explained by near-cancelation of through-bond and through-space contributions.From 01.01.1984, Royal Danish School of Educational Studies, Department of Chemistry, DK-2400 Copenhagen NV, Denmark

Syntheses and Reactions of Alkylthio- and Arylthio-Substituted 1,6-Methano[10]annulenes

The treatment of bromo-substituted 1,6-methano[10]annulenes with sodium thiolates in DMF provides easy access to alkylthio- and arylthio-substituted 1,6-methano[10]annulenes (Schemes 2-4). These compounds are then brominated with N-bromosuccinimide ( NBS ) to study their reactivity in electrophilic substitution reactions (Schemes 5 and 6). The resulting brominated thio-1,6-methano[10]annulenes are, in a subsequent reaction, subjected to Heck coupling with (4-nitrophenyl)acetylene ( 13 ) to produce the alkynylated derivatives 14 in reasonable yield (Scheme 7).     

Synthesis of [n]- and [n.n]cyclophanes by using Suzuki-Miyaura coupling

Reaction of the bis-9-BBN adduct of several dienes with 1,3-dibromobenzene via Suzuki coupling leads to a series of [n]metacyclophanes ranging in size from 10 to 17 atom members. In each case, two carbon-carbon bonds are formed in one reaction vessel. However, when the bis-9-BBN adduct of 1,5-hexadiene is coupled with a variety of aryl dihalides, larger [n.n]cyclophanes were formed in preference to the [n]cyclophanes. Four carbon-carbon bonds are formed in this instance. Single-crystal X-ray analyses of these [n.n]cyclophanes reveal interestingly shaped molecules with large cavities.

Syntheses, structures, and anion-binding properties of two novel calix[2]benzo[4]pyrroles

Calix[2]benzo[4]pyrrole m-6 and p-6, each containing two dipyrromethane moieties and two m-phenylene or p-phenylene units, respectively, were readily synthesised from pyrrole, 1,3- and 1,4-bis(1,1'-dimethylhydroxymethyl)benzene, (m-4 and p-4, respectively) and acetone. Macrocycles m-6 and p-6 were tested as receptors for a selection of anions, such as acetate, dihydrogenphosphate and fluoride. The X-ray structures of m-6 and p-6 and those of the complexes m-6F(-), m-6Cl(-) and m-6CH(3)COO(-) (with an nBu(4)N(+) counterion) were also determined.     

Cationic cyclocodimerization. 2. Syntheses of [3.3](1,4)naphthalenophane and [3.3]paracyclo(1,4)naphthalenophane derivatives

1,3-bis(4-vinylnaphthyl)propane and 1-(4-vinylnaphthyl)-3-($\text{p}$-vinylphenyl)propane, were cyclocodimerized with indene to afford indenyl-substituted [3.3](1,4)naphthalenophanes and [3.3]paracyclo(1,4)naphthalenophanes.     

Syntheses and antibacterial studies of some 2-[5-(Aryl)-[1,3,4]oxadiazole-2-ylsulfanyl] alkanoic Acids

Some new 2-[5-(aryl)-[1,3,4]oxadiazole-2-ylsulfanyl]alkanoic acids were synthesized and studied for their antibacterial activity. These compounds were prepared from aromatic carboxylic acid hydrazides. Aromatic carboxylic acid hydrazides 1 on refluxing with carbon disulfide and methanolic potassium hydroxide and then on subsequent acidification with hydrochloric acid furnish 5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiones 2. 2-Chloro alkanoic acids react with 2 in alkaline media and on acidification yield the title compounds 3. These compounds were characterised by CHN analyses, IR, mass and ¹H NMR spectral data. All the compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity against two Gram negative strains (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and two Gram positive strains (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were determined.     

Structure and spectral properties of two novel isomeric 2,4-dimethyl- 2-methoxy-3,8-dioxabicyclo [3.2.1] octanes

The preparation and structure of the novel bicyclic ketals 5 and 6 is reported. A single crystal X-ray structure of compound 5 establishes the structures of 5 and 6. ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra are interpreted in terms of chair conformations for both 5 and 6, even though an unfavorable syn-diaxial interaction is present in 6. In the ¹H spectra, the axial C-4 proton of compound 5 absorbs downfield of its equatorial counterpart in 6. This is apparently due to a deshielding effect of the syn-diaxial C-2 methoxy group in compound 5.
