Chain-ring-chain tautomerism in 2-aryl-substituted hexahydropyrimidines and 1H-2,3-dihydroperimidines. Does it appear?

A series of 2-aryl substituted hexahydropyrimidines and perimidines were synthesized from aromatic aldehydes and substituted 1,3-propanediamines or 1,8-naphthalenediamine. The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra showed that 2-arylperimidines and 2-aryl-4,4,6-trimethylhexahydropyrimidines exist exclusively in ring forms even in DMSO solutions, whereas 2-aryl-4-methylhexahydropyrimidines undergo chain-ring-chain tautomerism with a good linear correlation between the ring-chain equilibrium constants (log K, where K=[ring]/[chain]) and the Hammett-Brown σ⁺ parameters of the aromatic substituents. 4,4,6-Trimethylhexahydropyrimidines underwent complete and irreversible ring opening in CF₃COOH solutions giving two different chain forms.     

Synthesis,method optimization,anticancer activity of 2,3,7-trisubstituted Quinazoline derivatives and targeting EGFR-tyrosine kinase by rational approach: 1st Cancer Update

A novel 3-(substituted benzylideneamino)-7-chloro-2-phenyl quinazoline-4(3H)-one (7–27) has been synthesized and characterised by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. We changed the methodology for the synthesis of 3-amino 7-chloro-2-phenyl quinazolin-4(3H)-one 6 to fusion reaction at 250 °C, instead of using solvent, to avoid the problem of ring opening, which is commonly observed while synthesizing quinazolines from benzoxazinone. NCI selected, 7-chloro-3-{[(4-chlorophenyl) methylidene] amino}-2-phenylquinazolin-4(3H)-one 12, with GI₅₀ value of ?5.59 M, TGI value of ?5.12 M, and LC₅₀ value of ?4.40 M showed remarkable activity against CNS SNB-75 Cancer cell line. Rational approach and QSAR techniques enabled the understanding of the pharmacophoric requirement for 2,3,7-tri substituted quinazoline derivatives to inhibit EGFR-tyrosine kinase as antitumor agents and could be used as an excellent framework in this field that may lead to discovery of potent anti tumor agent.     

Synthesis and antimicrobial agents of thiazolidinone derivatives from benzocyclohepetenone

A series of benzosuberone coupled piperazin-1-yl thiazolidin-4-one derivatives 6a-j were synthesized from 3-(2-[9-chloro-2,3-dimethyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-benzo[7]annulen-8-yl]-4-oxothiazolidin-3-yl)propanoic acid ( 4 ) and substituted piperazines/secondary amines 5a-j using 1-hydroxy benzotriazole, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and triethyl amine in good yields and their structures were characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR, and Mass spectra. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antimicrobial activity against bacterial strains and a fungal strain. Compounds 6f and 6g were indicated promising and broad spectrum antibacterial activity.     

Synthesis of 2-(4-amino substituted benzylidene) indanone analogues from aromatic nucleophilic substitution (SNAr) reaction

A novel, efficient and convenient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of 2-(4-amino-substituted benzylidene)indanone derivatives. In the first step, the reaction of 4-fluorobenzaldehyde with 5, 6-dimethoxy-2, 3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-one in the presence of NaOH in EtOH was described. In the next step, a variety of aliphatic and aromatic amines were reacted with 2-(4-fluorobenzylidene)-5, 6-dimethoxy-2, 3-dihydro-1H-Inden-1-one via aromatic substitution (S_NAr) reaction to produce 2-(4-aminobenzylidene)-5, 6-dimethoxy-2, 3-dihydro-1H-Inden-1-one derivatives as a novel class of 1-indanones. These products have been successfully prepared in good to excellent yields. ^1?H and ^13?C NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy and CHN analysis supported the proposed structures of the products.     

13C-NMR-spektren von bicyclo[n.1.0]alkenen

The ¹³C-NMR spectra of some bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-en-2-ols and of some bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-en-2-ones are described. The bond parameters of bicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-en-2-one are derived from a structure determination of endo-6-methoxy-1,3,6-triphenylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-3-en-2-one. The electron density is calculated by the EHT method, and correlated with the ¹³C NMR shifts. For comparison the ¹³C NMR spectrum of a bicyclo[4.1.0]hepta-1,5-dione derivative is analysed. The influence of a cyclopropane system attached to a five-membered and to a six-membered ring is elucidated. Whereas the five-membered ring shows conjugation between the carbonyl group and the cyclopropane system, the same effect is not observed in the six-membered ring analogue. This is explained by the highly rigid structure of the five-membered ring.     

Concerning some unusual trimethylsilyl proton chemical shifts

Proton and ¹³C NMR data are presented for six different compounds containing the fragment C₆H₅? C? CH₂SiMe₃. In a number of instances it was observed that, in the ¹H NMR spectrum, the SiMe₃ groups had a chemical shift significantly upfield from internal tetramethylsilane (δ = ?0·14 to ?0·36). These unexpected upfield chemical shifts of the SiMe₃ groups are suggested to result from the predominance, on a time averaged basis, of conformations which place the methyl groups attached to silicon in the face of an aromatic ring. The preference for such conformations is, in turn, the result of rotational preferences exhibited by the ‘flat’ aromatic ring. These results suggest that conformational analysis of systems containing a phenyl ring should take more explicit account of the fact that the preferred orientation of this phenyl ring can have a profound influence on the conformation adopted by the remainder of the molecule. In addition, the preferred conformation of the phenyl ring can have a significant effect upon the observed ¹H NMR chemical shifts, while the ¹³C chemical shifts are relatively insensitive to conformational factors and can be explained by well-known substituent effects previously delineated for all-carbon systems.     

Ruthenium N‐heterocyclic–carbene catalyzed diarylation of arene C?H bond

Novel ruthenium‐1,3‐dialkylimidazolin‐2‐ylidene complexes ( 2a–e ) have been prepared and characterized by C, H, N analysis, ¹H‐NMR and ¹³C‐NMR. The ortho position of the aromatic ring of pyridyl group substituted aromatic compound was directly arylated with aryl bromides and chlorides in the presence of a catalytic amount of [RuCl₂(1,3‐dialkylimidazolin‐2‐ylidene)] complexes.

Conformational analysis—IV: A lanthanide induced shift (LIS) NMR investigation of the conformation and relative conformer energies of trans and cis 2-decalone

The solution conformation of trans-2-decalone and the conformational population of cis-2-decalone has been determined by LIS analysis. The angle of pucker (α) of the ketone ring in trans-2-decalone is 51 ± 2°, identical to that of cyclohexanone, but different from that determined for substituted decalones in the solid state, in which significant flattening of the ring occurs.The steroidal conformer of cis-2-decalone, when the latter is complexed to Yb(fod)₃ in CDCl₃, found to be preferred over the non-steroidal conformer by a ratio of 55:45, in contrast to the preference reported from the low temperature ¹³C NMR spectrum for the non complexed ketone in CH₂Cl₂. The two determinations can be combined to give the enthalpy difference in favor of the non-steroidal conformer of ca 0.8 kcal mole^?1.

Novel Copolymers of Styrene and Some Ring‐Substituted 2‐Cyano‐N,N‐Dimethyl‐3‐Phenyl‐2‐Propenamides

Electrophilic trisubstituted ethylene monomers, ring‐substituted 2‐cyano‐N,N‐dimethyl‐3‐phenyl‐2‐propenamides, RC₆H₄CH?C(CN)CON(CH₃)₂ (where R is 3‐benzyloxy, 4‐benzyloxy, 3‐ethoxy‐4‐methoxy, 3‐bromo‐4‐methoxy, 5‐bromo‐2‐methoxy, 2‐chloro‐6‐fluoro) were synthesized by potassium hydroxide catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation of ring‐substituted benzaldehydes and N,N‐dimethyl cyanoacetamide, and characterized by CHN elemental analysis, IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR. Novel copolymers of the ethylenes and styrene were prepared at equimolar monomer feed composition by solution copolymerization in the presence of a radical initiator, ABCN at 70°C. The composition of the copolymers was calculated from nitrogen analysis, and the structures were analyzed by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, GPC, DSC, and TGA. High T_g of the copolymers in comparison with that of polystyrene indicates a substantial decrease in chain mobility of the copolymer due to the high dipolar character of the trisubstituted ethylene monomer unit. The gravimetric analysis indicated that the copolymers decompose in the 300–450°C range.     

Novel Copolymers of Vinyl Acetate and Some Ring‐Substituted 2‐Phenyl‐1,1‐dicyanoethylenes

Electrophilic trisubstituted ethylene monomers, some ring‐substituted 2‐phenyl‐1,1‐dicyanoethylenes, RC₆H₄CH?C(CN)₂ (where R is 3‐C₆H₅O, 4‐C₆H₅O, 3‐C₆H₅CH₂O, 4‐C₆H₅CH₂O, 4‐CH₃CO₂, 4‐CH₃CONH, 4‐(C₂H₅)₂N) were synthesized by piperidine catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation of ring‐substituted benzaldehydes and malononitrile, and characterized by CHN elemental analysis, IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR. Novel copolymers of the ethylenes and vinyl acetate were prepared at equimolar monomer feed composition by solution copolymerization in the presence of a radical initiator (ABCN) at 70°C. The composition of the copolymers was calculated from nitrogen analysis, and the structures were analyzed by IR, ¹H and ¹³C‐NMR, GPC, DSC, and TGA. High T _g of the copolymers, in comparison with that of polyvinyl acetate, indicates a substantial decrease in chain mobility of the copolymer due to the high dipolar character of the trisubstituted ethylene monomer unit. The gravimetric analysis indicated that the copolymers decompose in the 190–700°C range.     

FREE RADICAL RING OPENING POLYMERIZATION OF CYCLIC ACRYLATES

Cyclic acrylates, 2,2- dimethyl-5-methylene-1 , 3-dioxolan-4 -one and 2- phenyl-5-methylene-1,3-dioxolan-4-one, were synthesized successfully. The monomers were characterized by ~1H NMR, ~(13)C NMR, IR and elemental analysis or HRMS. Polymerization of the monomers were carried out at 120℃with di-t-butylperoxide as initiator. The polymers were studied by ~1H NMR, ~(13)C NMR, UV and hydrolysis. The molecular weights of the resulting polymers were estimated by viscosity measurement and the extent of ring opening was estimated also by ~1H NMR and hydrolysis of the polymers and further confirmed by UV spectra.     

Recyclizations of 2‐aminobenzylimines and thioaroylhydrazones of N‐substituted N‐hydroxy‐3‐oxobutanamides

A universal scheme is proposed for the molecular design of heterocyclic recyclizations by replacing the exocyclic hydroxyl groups in exo‐trig‐ ring‐chain tautomeric molecules with substituted amines or hydrazines. The practical applicability of this approach is demonstrated by the condensations of 5‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐3‐isoxazolidinones with thioaroyl‐hydrazines and 2‐aminomethylaniline. The condensation products were studied by modern ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopic methods using three solvents: CDC1₃, DMSO[D₆] and CD₃CN. The solvent was found to have a strong effect to the relative amounts of the tautomers.     

Novel fluoro-substituted benzo- and benzothieno fused pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones

A straightforward, two-step synthesis of fluoro substituted chromeno[2,3-c]pyrazol- and [1]benzothieno[2′,3′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones, respectively, is presented. Hence, treatment of 1-substituted or 1,3-disubstituted 2-pyrazolin-5-ones with fluoro substituted 2-fluorobenzoyl chlorides or 3-chloro-6-fluoro-1-benzothiophene-2-carbonyl chloride using calcium hydroxide in refluxing 1,4-dioxane gave the corresponding 4-aroylpyrazol-5-ols, which were cyclized into the fused ring systems. 5-Fluorochromeno[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-one was obtained upon treatment of the 1-(4-methoxybenzyl) protected congener with trifluoroacetic acid. Treatment of 5-fluorochromeno[2,3-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones with methylhydrazine afforded novel tetracyclic ring systems such as 2-methyl-7-phenyl-2,7-dihydropyrazolo[4′,3′:5,6]pyrano[4,3,2-cd]indazole. Detailed NMR spectroscopic investigations (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁹F) with the obtained compounds were undertaken.

Bis(perfluoroalkyl and aryl substituted acetylacetonate)beryllium(II) chelates

The synthesis of eight beryllium chelates having substituted beta-diketone ligands, RCOCH₂COR′, is reported (R=methyl, 2′-thienyl, 2′- furyl, phenyl; R′=CF₃, C₂F₅, C₃F₇). ¹³C, ¹⁹F and ¹H NMR spectra data are compared to give a shielding order. These four-coordinate pseudo- tetrahedral complexes of idealized C₂ symmetry all give a more deshielded ring carbon than the corresponding ring carbon resonances of the same ligand in four-coordinate square planar complexes. Some dipole moment data are also presented.     

Structure of lilidine

The new alkaloid lilidine, isolated for the first time from the epigeal part ofLilium martagon has been studied by special methods. It has the composition B₅H₆NO₂, mp 118–110°C, [α]_D-26.3°. The¹H and¹³C NMR spectra were studied in detail. The values of the direct and long-range spin-spin coupling constants between the¹³C carbon nuclei and the¹H nuclei of the alkaloid molecule were measured with the aid of¹³C-[{su1}H] selective heteronuclear double resonance. The structure of 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-3-pyrrolin-2-one is suggested for lilidine.     

Proximity and the heteroatom effects on the carbon-13 chemical shifts of methyl-substituted phenols,anilines and thiophenols

Upfield substituent-induced ¹³C chemical shifts for aryl carbons of polymethyl substituted benzenes, phenols, anilines and thiophenols were investigated as a function of the proximity between substituents X and CH₃ (X = CH₃, NH₂, OH and SH). The results indicate that the induced shifts of the substituted aryl carbons are, in general, independent of the polar substituent but depend on the number of adjacent substituted aryl carbons. A ?2.0 ppm upfield shift was found for a substituted aryl carbon adjacent to one substituted aryl carbon and a ?3.8 ppm upfield shift for a substituted aryl carbon bound by two substituted aryl carbons. It is suggested that the near additivity of the upfield shifts is the result of changes in the bond order between the aromatic ring carbons in the region of the substituted aryl carbons due to distortion of the ring. The ¹³C chemical shifts of the methyl substituents for methyl substituted phenols, anilines and thiophenols were determined, and it was found that the values could be predicted from the additivity parameters reported for the analogous methylbenzenes plus an additional pair-interaction term associated with the through-space electronic influence of the heteroatom.     

Novel Copolymers of Styrene and Alkyl Ring‐Substituted Methyl 2‐Cyano‐3‐phenyl‐2‐propenoates

Electrophilic trisubstituted ethylene monomers, alkyl ring substituted methyl 2‐cyano‐3‐phenyl‐2‐propenoates, RC₆H₄CH[dbnd]C(CN)CO₂CH₃, where R is 2‐methyl, 3‐methyl, 4‐methyl, 4‐isopropyl, and 2,5‐dimethyl were synthesized by piperidine catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation of ring‐substituted benzaldehydes and methyl cyanoacetate, and characterized by CHN elemental analysis, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR. Novel copolymers of the ethylenes and styrene were prepared at equimolar monomer feed composition by solution copolymerization in the presence of a radical initiator (AIBN) at 70°C. The composition of the copolymers was calculated from nitrogen analysis, and the structures were analyzed by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR, GPC, DSC, and TGA. High T_g of the copolymers in comparison with that of polystyrene indicates a substantial decrease in chain mobility of the copolymer due to the high dipolar character of the trisubstituted ethylene monomer unit. The gravimetric analysis indicated that the copolymers decompose in the 260–400°C range.
