Recherches en vue de la synthèse de barbiturates organostanniques

Triphenyl and tributyltin hydrides have been found to add to the terminal double bond of unsaturated ethyl malonates to give organotin substituted ethyl malonates. Attempted cyclisation of the latter into barbituric compounds failed.     

Nouvelle méthode de synthèse de thiazolopyridines

It has been established that the direct condensation between aromatic and aliphatic thioesters and the variously generated anion of amino-chloropyridines represents the best method for the synthesis of thiazolo-pyridines. The transient thioamides, sometimes isolated, can be easily converted chemically or photochemically into the desired fused heterocycles.     

Sur la synthèse de quelques furochromènes,analogues pharmacochimiques de la xanthylétine et de la séseline

Some furochromenes substituted at the 2-position by an electron-attracting group were obtained starting from ortho-hydroxyformyl derivatives of 2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromene following various processes which are indicated. These new furochromenes are pharmacochemical analogues of some natural pyranocoumarins, and as such they are potential photosensitizers.     

Sur la synthèse d'acides thiazolotriazolylacétiques

During the synthesis of thiazolotriazolylacetic acids, the condensation of ethyl 4-chloro-3-oxobutyrate with triazolinethiones was studied. The use of an alkaline reagent (triethylamine) leads only to S-alkylation and not to the expected cyclized product. The cyclization of the intermediate β-ketoester is observed only by use of acidic reagents (phosphorous oxychloride, hydrogen chloride).     

Sur la synthèse du pollinastanol à partir du cycloartanol

The partial synthesis of pollinastanol (14) from cycloartanol (3) is reported. The transformation proceeds through the methylenic intermediate 12; the ring enlargement with cyanogen azide affords pollinastanone (13) further reduced to 14, The 4-keto isomer of pollinastanone (17) as well as a series of 5-β isomeric compounds are also described.     

Sur la synthèse d'alkoxy-2 nitro-3 2H-chroménes

2-Alkoxy-3-nitro-2H-chromenes have been obtained by the reaction of β-nitroacetaldehyde dialkyl acetals with some salicylic aldehydes in the presence of triethylamine p-toluene sulfonate.     

Sur la synthèse de chloro-3 indolinones a partir de β-nitrostyrènes diversement substitués

When treated with acetyl chloride and ferric chloride in methylene chloride, at 0°, monosubstituted β-nitrostyrene derivatives such as 2,3 or 4-methyl, -chloro or -fluoro and 3-nitro-β-nitrostyrenes cyclize into the new corresponding 3-chloro-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one. Reaction with other metal chlorides such as aluminum chloride and titanium tetrachloride does not lead to these heterocyclic derivatives but only produces N-acetyl-N-hydroxy-α-chlorobenzeneacetamides and/or N-(acetyloxy)-α-chlorobenzeneethanimidoyl chlorides.     

Isolement de nouveaux complexes de zinc de dipyrrométhènes formés au cours de la synthèse de la méso-tétramésitylporphyrine par la réaction de Rothemund

Three new zinc bis(dipyrromethene) complexes have been isolated in the preparation of meso-tetramesitylporphyrin by the Rothemund zinc template based condensation process.     

Utilisation de techniques d'amination réductrice pour la synthèse d'amino-sucres de différents types. Communication préliminaire

Synthesis of amino-sugars using reductive amination reactions. Preliminary communication Treatment of aldehydo- or keto-sugars with primary or secondary amines and hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst (Pd/C) gave with good to excellent yields (67–96%) the expected secondary or tertiary amines. Primary amines can be obtained by using benzylamine, a hydrogenolysis taking place during the reaction.     

Les anions-radicaux de l'isoprène et du butadiène intermédiaires de synthèse en chimie organique

We have synthesized a series of alkadiene and dialcohol homologs of terpenoid natural products by using anion-radicals of isoprene and butadiene. The reactions of the two monomers were initiated anionically by use of alkali metal–aromatic hydrocarbon complexes. The polymerization was stopped at the dimer stage. This method constitutes a route of synthesis for numerous organic compounds, such as alcohols and hydrocarbons.     

Oligomérisation anionique de l'ethylène. III. Application à la synthèse d'alcools à longue chaine

Living oligomers of ethylene obtained by n-BuLi complexed with TMEDA have been deactivated by ethylene oxide. The nuclear magnetic resonance study of the product obtained allowed us to follow the influence of TMEDA toward the functionalization. Three products have been characterized: By increasing the ratio [TMEDA]/[n-BuLi] one obtains a decrease of the functionalization reaction.     

Application de la réaction de Wittig à la synthèse de dérivés de bromoénosuloses et d'esters bromoénuroniques. Note de laboratoire

Use of the Wittig reaction for the synthesis of derivatives of bromoenosuloses and bromoenuronic esters Treatment of 3-O-benzyl (or 3-O-methyl)-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-D -xylo-pentodialdo-1, 4-furanoses ( 2 or 1 ) with acetylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 3 ), benzoylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 4 ) or bromoethoxycarbonylmethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 5 ) gave in good to excellent yields the expected enose ( 6--11 ). In all cases but one ( 8 where some 10% of the E-isomer was formed) the reaction led to the exclusive formation of the Z-isomer whose configuration was established by NMR.     

Identification et synthèse de nouveaux depsides isolés de la mousse de chêne (Evernia Prunastri (L.) ACH.). 4e Communication

Identification and synthesis of new depsides isolated from oakmoss (Evernia Prunastri (L .) ACH .) Lecanoric acid 5 and 4 new depsides have been isolated from oakmoss (Evernia Prunastri (L .)
