An efficient method for the preparation of polymer-bound cyclic malonic acid ester starting from Merrifield resin has been developed. Reaction of the resin-bound cyclic malonic acid ester with triethyl orthoformate and subsequent double substitution with nucleophilic reagents, such as arylamine, urea, thiourea, 2-aminobenzothiazoles, or isothiosemicarbazones, afforded the corresponding polymer-bound substituted aminomethylene cyclic malonic acid esters, which upon thermal treament led to 4(1H)-quinolones, 3-substituted uracils and thiouracils, 4H-pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazol-4-ones, and 1-(N-alkylidene or benzylideneamino)-1,6-dihydro-2-methylthio-6-oxo-pyrimidines, depending on the structures of the nucleophilic reagents.

The reactions of 2-, 3-, and 4-cyanopyridine with NaN(3) in the presence of H(2)O and Lewis acid (ZnCl(2)) afford discrete monomer, (2-PTZ)(2)Zn(H(2)O)(2) (1), 3D diamondoid-like network (3-PTZ)(2)Zn (2), and 2D layered network (4-PTZ)Zn(OH)(H(2)O) (3), respectively (PTZ = 5-(pyridyl)tetrazolato). Their solid state structures and natures give new insight into the Sharpless reaction of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazole. Interestingly, 2 crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric space group and its powdered sample is second-harmonic generation active.     

Synthesis of 4- and 5-substituted 1-hydroxyimidazoles through directed lithiation and metal-halogen exchange.

Electrophiles were introduced regioselectively at the 5-position of 1-(benzyloxy)imidazole by lithiation at C-5 after protection of C-2 with a chloro or a trimethylsilyl group. Subsequent treatment with an electrophile afforded 5-substituted 1-(benzyloxy)-2-chloroimidazoles 8-13 and 5-substituted 1-(benzyloxy)imidazoles 3-5, the 2-(trimethylsilyl) group being lost during workup.

The regioselectivity of reduction of 1-substituted anthraquinones to 1- or 4-substituted anthrones is determined by both the nature of the substituent and the type of the reducing system used. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 355–357, February, 1997.     

Nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of RF-containing 4-quinolones, 8-aza- and 1-thiochromones with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane

Reactions of N-substituted 2-polyfluoroalkyl-4-quinolones and 8-aza-5,7-dimethyl-2-polyfluoroalkylchromones with (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane proceed mainly as a 1,4-nucleophilic trifluoromethylation to give N-substituted 2,2-bis(polyfluoroalkyl)-2,3-dihydroquinolin-4(1H)-ones and 5,7-dimethyl-2,2-bis(polyfluoroalkyl)-2,3-dihydro-4H-pyrano[2,3-b]pyridin-4-ones after acid hydrolysis.

Spin-spin coupling constants of 13C-1H and 1H- 1H in 4-substituted pyridines

The spin-spin coupling constants (SSCC) of ¹³C-¹H and ¹H-¹H in 4-substituted pyridines, C₅H₄NX [X=,CN, COCH₃, COOCH₃, N(CH₃)₂, NO₂, OCH₃, Cl, Br], were investigated. To determine the constants, the proton-coupled NMR spectra of ¹³C and ¹³C-satellites in the PMR spectra of the compounds, recorded for monomolecular solutions of 4-substituted pyridines in DMSO-D₆, were analyzed. The interrelationship of the SSCC of ¹³C-¹H and ¹H-¹H in 4-substituted pyridines with the analogous constants in monosubstittued benzenes were obtained. The correlations of the constants with the F- and R-parameters of the substituents are discussed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 948–952, July, 1984.

Synthesis of 6-substituted 1-alkoxy-5-alkyluracils

Synthesis of 6-substituted 1-alkoxy-5-alkyluracils 2a-c have been achieved from readily accessible 2-alkyl-3,3-di(methylthio)acryloyl chlorides 4a,b in high overall yields. Treatment of 4a,b with silver cyanate followed by reaction of the resulting isocyanates 5a,b with an appropriate alkoxyamine afforded N-alkoxy-N′-[2-alkyl-3,3-di(methylthio)acryloyl]ureas 6a,b in 85–88% yields. Cyclization of 6a,b in acetic acid containing methanesulfonic acid followed by oxidation with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid gave high yields of 1-alkoxy-5-alkyl-6-(methylsulfonyl)uracils 9a,b. Nucleophillic addition-elimination reaction of 9a,b with sodium azide, phenylthiol, or phenylselenol produced 6-azido-1-butoxythymine ( 2a , 98%), 5-ethyl-1-(2-phenoxyethoxy)-6-(phenylthio)uracil ( 2b , 95%), or 5-ethyl-1-(2-phenoxyethoxy)-6-(phenylselenenyl)uracil ( 2c , 91%).

The isomeric 3-substituted 2,4(1H,3H)-quinazolinediones ( 4 ) are conveniently made in high yield by the action of aqueous-ethanolic sodium hydoxide on 2.     

Synthesis, spectral characterization and biological activity of zinc(II) complexes with 3-substituted phenyl-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1, 2, 4-triazole Schiff bases

New Zn(II) complexes have been synthesized by the reactions of zinc(II) acetate with Schiff bases derived from 3-substituted phenyl-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1, 2, 4-triazole and benzaldehyde, 2-hydroxyacetophenone or indoline-2,3-dione. All these complexes are soluble in DMF and DMSO; low molar conductance values indicate that they are non-electrolytes. Elemental analyses suggest that the complexes have 1:1 stoichiometry of the type [ZnL(H(2)O)(2)], [ZnL'(OAc)(2)(H(2)O)(2)] (L=dianionic Schiff bases derived from 3-(substituted phenyl)-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1, 2, 4-triazole and 2-hydroxyacetophenone or indoline-2,3-dione; L'=neutral Schiff bases derived from 3-(substituted phenyl)-4-amino-5-hydrazino-1, 2, 4-triazole and benzaldehyde) and they were characterized by FT-IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR and FAB mass. All these Schiff bases and their complexes have also been screened for their antibacterial activities against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli and antifungal activities against Colletotrichum falcatum, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporium and Carvularia pallescence by petriplates methods.
