The reaction of aryl and heteroarylhydrazines with aryl‐trifluoromethyl β‐diketones

We report the results obtained when five aromatic or heteroaromatic hydrazines react with six β‐diketones bearing trifluoromethyl and aryl substituents. Forty‐two compounds have been isolated corresponding to two isomeric trifluoromethyl pyrazoles and the intermediate 5‐CF₃, 5‐OH pyrazolines. The results have provided useful information for establishing the mechanism of the synthesis of pyrazoles.     

Catalyst and pressure dependent reductive cyclizations for the diastereo‐selective synthesis of hexahydropyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoline‐5‐carboxylic esters

A diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2,3,3a,4,5‐hexahydropyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoline‐5‐carboxylic esters has been developed using a tandem reduction‐double reductive amination reaction. The nitro dicarbonyl cyclization substrates were synthesized by alkylation of methyl (2‐nitrophenyl)acetate with 2‐bromomethyl‐1,5‐hexadiene derivatives, followed by ozonolysis. Catalytic hydrogenation of each substrate gave the target heterocycle, along with a deacylated product and an adduct resulting from capture of the intermediate hydroxylamine by the side chain carbonyls. The product ratio varied dramatically with the catalyst and the hydrogen pressure. Cyclization to the title compounds was highly diastereoselective, producing each hexahydropyrrolo[1,2‐a]‐quinoline as a single stereoisomer with the all‐cis geometry. The competing processes have not been observed in previous heterocyclization studies but can be attributed to greater strain in the system, which slows the final ring closure.     

Synthesis of fluorine containing N‐benzyl‐1,2,3‐triazoles and N‐methyl‐pyrazoles from conjugated alkynes

1, 3‐Dipolar‐cycloaddition reaction of fluoro substituted 3‐aryl‐propynenitriles 1 with benzyl azide 2 afforded the expected 3‐benzyl‐5‐aryl‐3H‐[1,2,3]triazole‐4‐carbonitrile 3 and 1‐benzyl‐5‐aryl‐1H‐[1,2,3]‐triazole‐4‐carbonitrile 4 in good yield. However, 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of diazomethane 5 with 3‐aryl‐propynenitriles 1 resulted in the exclusive formation of N‐methyl‐pyrazole derivatives 6 and 7 .

A comparative study between the developed microwave methods and the conventional methods is described. We have also illustrated the possible mechanism behind to address the reason why piperidine, acetic acid and silica gel enhanced the Knoevenagel condensation reaction.     

Convenient synthesis of novel 5‐substituted 3‐methylisoxazole‐4‐sulfonamides
