3′-(1,2,3-Triazol-1-yl)-2′,3′-dideoxythymidine and 3′-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine

Cycloaddition of different acetylenic compounds on the azido function of 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxythymidine and 3′-azido-2′,3′-dideoxyuridine afforded products with a 1,2,3-triazol-1-yl substituent in the 3′-position. In contrast with the parent compounds, these triazolyl derivatives had no appreciable activity against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1).     

Enzymatic kinetic resolution of 1-(3′-furyl)-3-buten-1-ol and 2-(2′-furyl)-propan-1-ol

The enzymatic kinetic resolution of the racemic alcohols 1-(3′-furyl)-3-buten-1-ol (±)-1 and 2-(2′-furyl)propan-1-ol (±)-2 was investigated by screening a range of lipases and esterases for enantioselective transacylation, as well as for enantioselective hydrolysis. For both alcohols, lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis of the derived racemic acetate gave the best results for accessing the desired (S)-enantiomers. In the case of the secondary alcohol (±)-1, ASL turned out to be the optimum enzyme, whereas PPL was found to be superior in the case of the primary alcohol (±)-2. Additionally, an alternative access to (S)-2 via Oppolzer's camphor sultam methodology is described.     

5-(α-Fluorovinyl)tryptamines and 5-(α-Fluorovinyl)-3-(N-methyl-1′,2′,5′,6′,-tetrahydropyridin-3′- and -4′-yl)indoles—5-(α-Fluorovinyl)tryptamines

5-(α-Fluorovinyl)tryptamines 4a, 4b and 5-(α-fluorovinyl)-3-(N-methyl-1′,2′,5′,6′-tetrahydropyridin-3′- and -4′-yl) indoles 5a, 5b were synthesized using 5-(α-fluorovinyl)indole ( 7 ). The target compounds are bioisosteres of 5-carboxyamido substituted tryptamines and their tetrahydropyridyl analogs.     

Mass spectra of some 2-(4′-butyl-3,′5′-dimethylpyrazol-1′-yl)-6-substituted benzothiazoles

The fragmentation of the title compounds on electron impact has been studied and the major processes interpreted. The base peak invariably appears at [M ? 43]⁺ whose origin from the butyl chain has been traced with the help of metastable ion studies and accurate mass measurements. Loss of methyl cyanide, involving the decomposition of the pyrazole moiety, is observed only from the fragment ions.

Alkenylation of 6-methyl-2-(2-cyclohexen-1-yl)- and 2-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)anilines with piperylene in the presence of AlCl₃ and transformation of the resulting cyclohexenylanilines into carbazole structures were studied.__________Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Khimii, Vol. 78, No. 3, 2005, pp. 441–443.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Gataullin, Ishberdina, Sotnikov, Abdrakhmanov.     

Photochemical Reactions. 126th Communication. Photochemistry of an α, β: δ, ε-unsaturated ketone: 4-(2′, 7′, 7′-Trimethylbicyclo [3.2.0]hept-2′-en-1′-yl)-3-buten-2-one

On ¹n,π*-excitation, the title compound 2 undergoes a photoinduced intramolecular [4 + 2]-cycloaddition affording the tetracyclic enol ether 3 as the only product in 79% yield. The assigned structure of 3 was confirmed by its conversion to the p-nitrobenzoate 6 whose structure was determined by X-ray analysis.     

Gas-phase reactions of NO3 and N2O5 with (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol ('leaf alcohol'), (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol

The night-time atmospheric chemistry of the biogenic volatile organic compounds (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol ('leaf alcohol'), (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol, has been studied at room temperature. Rate coefficients for reactions of the nitrate radical (NO(3)) with these stress-induced plant emissions were measured using the discharge-flow technique. We employed off-axis continuous-wave cavity-enhanced absorption spectroscopy (CEAS) for the detection of NO(3), which enabled us to work in excess of the hexenol compounds over NO(3). The rate coefficients determined were (2.93 +/- 0.58) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (2.67 +/- 0.42) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (4.43 +/- 0.91) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), (1.56 +/- 0.24) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1), and (1.30 +/- 0.24) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) for (Z)-hex-4-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol, (Z)-hex-2-en-1-ol and (E)-hex-2-en-1-ol. The rate coefficient for the reaction of NO(3) with (Z)-hex-3-en-1-ol agrees with the single published determination of the rate coefficient using a relative method. The other rate coefficients have not been measured before and are compared to estimated values. Relative-rate studies were also performed, but required modification of the standard technique because N(2)O(5) (used as the source of NO(3)) itself reacts with the hexenols. We used varying excesses of NO(2) to determine simultaneously rate coefficients for reactions of NO(3) and N(2)O(5) with (E)-hex-3-en-1-ol of (5.2 +/- 1.8) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) and (3.1 +/- 2.3) x 10(-18) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). Our new determinations suggest atmospheric lifetimes with respect to NO(3)-initiated oxidation of roughly 1-4 h for the hexenols, comparable with lifetimes estimated for the atmospheric degradation by OH and shorter lifetimes than for attack by O(3). Recent measurements of [N(2)O(5)] suggest that the gas-phase reactions of N(2)O(5) with unsaturated alcohols will not be of importance under usual atmospheric conditions, but they certainly can be in laboratory systems when determining rate coefficients.

Nucleoside und Nucleotide. Teil 16. Verhalten von 1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyrimidinon-5′-triphosphat, 1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)pyridinon-5′-triphosphat und 4-Amino-1-(2′-Desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinon-5′-triphosphat gegenüber DNA-Polymerase

Nucleosides and Nucleotides. Part 16. The Behaviour of 1-(2′-Deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyrimidinone-5′-triphosphate, 1-(2′-Deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl-2(1H))-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate and 4-Amino-1-(2′-desoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate towards DNA Polymerase The behaviour of nucleotide base analogs in the DNA synthesis in vitro was studied. The investigated nucleoside-5′-triphosphates 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyrimidinone-5′-triphosphate (pppM_d), 1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate (pppII_d) and 4-amino-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridinone-5′-triphosphate (pppZ_d) can be considered to be analogs of 2′-deoxy-cytidine-5′-triphosphate. However, their ability to undergo base pairing to the complementary guanine is decreased. When pppM_d, pppII_d or pppZ_d are substituted for pppC_d in the enzymatic synthesis of DNA by DNA polymerase no incorporation of these analogs is observed. They exhibit only a weak inhibition of the DNA synthesis. The mode of the inhibition is uncompetitive which shows that these nucleotide analogs cannot serve as substrates for the DNA polymerase.     

Nucleosides and Nucleotides. Part 13. Synthesis and spectral properties of 1- (3′-O-Phosphoryl-2′-deoxy-β -D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyridone-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2 (1H)-pyridone

The dinucleoside phosphate Π_dpΠ_d ( 4 ) was synthesized from the monomers 1-(5′-O-monomethoxytrityl - 2′ - deoxy - β - D - ribofuranosyl) - 2 (1 H) - pyridone ((MeOTr) Π_d, 2 ) and 1-(5′-O-phosphoryl-3′-O-acetyl-2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-(1H)-pyridone (pΠ_d(Ac), 3 ). Its 6.4% hyperchromicity and an analysis of the ¹H-NMR. spectra indicate that the conformation and the base-base interactions in 4 are similar to those in natural pyrimidine dinucleoside phosphates.

Synthesis and X-Ray Structure of (6′RS,8′RS,2E)- and (6′RS,8′SR,2E)-3-Methyl-3-(2′,2′,6′-trimethyl-7′-oxabicyclo[4.3.0]non-9′-en-8′-yl)-2-propenal ([(5RS,8RS)- and (5RS,8SR)-5,8-Epoxy-5,8-dihydro-ionylidene]acetaldehyde) To check our previous spectroscopic assignments of the structures of trans- and cis-substituted furanoid end groups of carotenoid-5,8-epoxides, we now have synthesized the title compounds. An X-ray structure determination of a single crystal of the trans-isomer (±)- -10A is in agreement with the ¹ H-NMR spectroscopic arguments: isomers with Δδ (H? C(7), H? C(8)) = 0.15–0.22 ppm and J > 1.4 for H? C(7) belong to the cis-series; Δδ in trans-compounds is < 0.07 ppm, and H? C(7) appears as a broad singulett.     

Photochemische Reaktionen 119. Mitteilung [1] Zur Photospaltung konjugierter γ,δ-Epoxyenone. UV.-Bestrahlung von 3-(1′,2′-Epoxy-2′-methyl-prop-1′-yl)-5,5-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-on

Photocleavage of Conjugated π,π-Epoxyenones. UV.-Irradiation of 3-(1′,2′-Epoxy-2′-methyl-prop-1′-yl)-5,5-dimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-one On ¹π,π*-excitation (δ = 254 nm) 9 undergoes cleavage of the C(δ), C(δ)-bond yielding 17 and a , which gives 18 by photofragmentation. In presence of maleinic ester the photolysis of 9 yields 20 , in presence of methanol 21 and 22 are obtained. By photocleavage of the C(δ), O-bond 9 is converted into b giving 14 . Photolysis of 14 yields 15 ( A + B ) and 16 . On ¹n,π*-excitation (δ λ? 347 nm) of 9 cleavage of the C(δ), O-bond ( 9 → b ) seems to be the preferred reaction, whereas products of a are formed in traces, only.     

Nucleoside und Nucleotide. Teil 10. Synthese von Thymidylyl-(3′-5′) -thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-desoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridon

Nucleosides and Nucleotides. Part 10. Synthesis of Thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D - ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridone The synthesis of 5′-O-monomethoxytritylthymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1H)-pyridone ((MeOTr)T_dpT_dp∏_d, 5 ) and of thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-thymidylyl-(3′-5′)-1-(2′-deoxy-β-D -ribofuranosyl)-2(1 H)-pyridone (T_dpT_dp∏_d, 11 ) by condensing (MeOTr) T_dpT_d ( 3 ) and p∏_d(Ac) ( 4 ) in the presence of DCC in abs. pyridine is described. Condensation of (MeOTr) T_dpT_dp ( 6 ) with Π_d(Ac) ( 7 ) did not yield the desired product 5 because compound 6 formed the 3′-pyrophosphate. The removal of the acetyl- and p-methoxytrityl protecting group was effected by treatment with conc. ammonia solution at room temperature, and acetic acid/pyridine 7 : 3 at 100°, respectively. Enzymatic degradation of the trinucleoside diphosphate 11 with phosphodiesterase I and II yielded T_d, pT_d and p∏_d, T_dp and Π_d, respectively, in correct ratios.
