Intramolecular Alkylation of Aromatic Compounds XXXVI [1]. Stereoselective Synthesis of C/D-cis-Configured Ergolines

Summary.  The stereoselective synthesis of cis-ergoline is presented. Starting from rac-N-benzoyl tryptophan methyl ester, the key compound indolinylmethylpyridin-3-one was prepared via a seven-step reaction in good yield. Since its cyclization to the desired ergolinone failed, the key compound was reduced to yield the two diastereomeric pyridin-3-ols; only one of them cyclized in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, affording cis-ergoline. Catalytic hydrogenation of the latter gave N,N′-dimethyldihydroergoline, the X-ray crystallography of which revealed both the correct structure and identical relative configurations at C-5a and C-6a (SS or RR). Hydroboration and subsequent perruthenate oxidation of the Δ⁹-ergoline provided access to the regioisomeric ergolinols and ergolinones. Received December 27, 2001. Accepted January 15, 2002

Synthesis of a New Series of Imidazo[1,5- d ]pyrido[2,3- b ][1,4]thiazines as Potential Ligands for the GABA Receptor Complex

 Starting from 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine, 1H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-2(3H)-one was synthesized. This compound was reacted with potassium tert-butoxide and diethyl chlorophosphate to give the intermediate 1H-pyrido[2,3-b][1,4]thiazin-2-ylphosphate derivative, which in turn afforded the 1,2,4-oxadiazolylimidazo[1,5-d]pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazine derivatives. The title compounds are potential ligands for the γ-aminobutyric acid A/benzodiazepine receptor complex.

采用高温固相法制备了4种高纯度晶相组成的LixZryOz三元化合物,研究了焙烧温度、时间、反应物的种类和初始反应物物质的量比对产物组成的影响,进一步用XRD、SEM及BET分析方法对产物的晶相结构、表面形貌及比表面积进行了表征.实验结果表明,Li2CO3与ZrO2在适当条件下可以合成得到单斜相Li3ZrO3;以LiOH替代Li2CO3,在适当条件下可以分别合成得到四方相Li2ZrO3和三斜/单斜相Li6Zr2O7;进一步以Zr(NO3)4·5H2O代替Zr02,可将单斜相Li6Zr2O7的制备时间由96 h缩短至24 h.SEM照片显示产物硬团聚明显,粒径分布在1～10μm间,BET分析表明样品比表面积处于1.0～9.0 m2·g-1间分布,反应过程中锂的过量以及长时间高温焙烧是引起产物粒径长大和产生硬团聚的主要原因.     

Synthesis of Imidazo[1′,5′:1,2]pyrido[3,4- b ]indole Derivatives

 The reactions of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-1-carboxylic acid and its ethyl ester with alkyl and aryl isothiocyanates under mild conditions resulted in the corresponding thiohydantoin-fused tetrahydro-β-carbolines. Treatment of the ethyl ester with isocyanates furnished ethyl 2-alkyl- or arylcarbamoyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline-1-carboxylates which were transformed to hydantoin-fused tetrahydro-β-carbolines. The structures of the thiohydantoin compounds, involving two conformers and the presence of keto-enol tautomerism, were determined by NMR spectroscopy.     

Boron-Nitrogen Compounds. 88 [1]. Boron Derivatives of Pyridylalkylamines

Bor-Stickstoff-Verbindungen. 88. Borderivate von pyridylalkylaminen Die Umsetzung von 2-Aminomethylpyridin oder 2-Aminoäthylpyridin mit Trialkylboranen im Molverhältnis 1:2 führt zu Zwischenprodukten, deren Thermolyse (2-Pyridylalkylamino)dialkylborane C₅H₄N? 2-(CH₂)_n? NH? BR₂ (n = 1, 2; R ? C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇) ergibt. Kernresonanzspektroskopische Untersuchungen an diesen Verbindungen zeigen, daß im Falle von R ? C₂H₅ ein intramolekularer bicyclischer Komplex mit vierbindigem Bor vorliegt. Ist R ? C₃H₇, so liegt für n = 1 eine entsprechende Struktur neben der nicht koordinierten Verbindung mit dreibindigem Bor vor, während für n = 2 ausschließlich letztere Struktur existiert. Das Verhalten der beiden Basen bei Umsetzungen mit vierfach koordiniertem Bor ist dagegen gleichartig. So findet mit Trimethylamin-Boran in beiden Fällen gleichzeitige Basenverdrängung und Kondensation statt, was zu Amin-Aminoboranen H₂B? NH? (CH₂)_n? C₅H₄N? BH₃ führt, während die Reaktion mit Trimethylamin-Iodboran unter Verdrängung von Base und Iodidion zu Boronium(1+)-Salzen führt.

Regioselective and Stereoselective Synthesis of Pyridine‐Fused Benzoxepine Derivatives by Intramolecular Reductive Heck Cyclization [1]

An efficient method for the synthesis of 6,11‐dihydro[2]benzoxepino[4,3‐b]pyridine derivatives via Pd(0) catalyzed intramolecular reductive Heck cyclization is reported. The method offers the regioselective and stereoselective synthesis of highly functionalized pyridine‐fused benzoxepine derivatives in 75–85% yields under mild conditions. Chemoselective Sonogashira coupling is utilized for the synthesis of cyclization precursors. The stereochemistry of the exocyclic double bond of 6,11‐dihydro[2]benzoxepino[4,3‐b]pyridine derivatives is confirmed from single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The absence of N–Pd(II) interaction results in a reverse stereochemistry of the exocyclic double bond of dibenzoxepine derivative.     

Synthesis and Structure Investigations of Potential Sedative and Anticonvulsant Hydroxy- and Acetoxy- N -(3-oxobutyl)-pyrido[2,3- d ]pyridazinonesa

 Novel N-(3-oxobutyl)-hydroxy- and acetoxypyrido[2,3-d]pyridazinones were synthesized and tested in vivo for their sedative and anticonvulsant activity. The Michael-type reaction of quinolinic acid hydrazide and methyl vinyl ketone afforded a mixture of two isomers, 5-hydroxy-N ⁷-(3-oxobutyl)-pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazin-8(7H)-one and 8-hydroxy-N ⁶-(3-oxobutyl)-pyrido[2,3,-d]pyridazin-5-(6H)-one, in a ratio of 2:1 which were separated by crystallization. Subsequent acetylation of both isomers yielded the corresponding 5- and 8-acetoxy compounds. The structures of the compounds were proven and completely assigned on the basis of ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N NMR, and 1D NOE difference spectra as well as 2D C,H-correlation experiments. Preliminary pharmacological tests showed low acute toxicity with a LD ₅₀ > 1000 mg/kg in the mouse and sedative activity for the title compounds. 5-Acetoxy-N ⁷- (3-oxobutyl)-pyrido[2,3-d]pyridazin-8(7H)-one displayed a borderline anticonvulsant activity in the metrazole test model.     

Synthesis and Complexation of a New vic -Dioxime Ligand

 A new vic-dioxime ligand, N,N′-bis-(8-salicylideneimino-1-naphthyl)-diaminoglyoxime, has been synthesized from anti-dichloroglyoxime and 1-amino-8-salicylideneiminonaphthalene which has been prepared via the condensation product of 1,8-diaminonaphthalene and salicylaldehyde. The vic-dioxime ligand forms trinuclear complexes with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Pd(II). The uranyl complex of this ligand has a 2:1 metal-ligand ratio and a binuclear structure with μ-hydroxo bridges.     

Intramolecular Nicholas Reaction Enables the Stereoselective Synthesis of Strained Cyclooctynes

Cyclic products can be obtained through the intramolecular version of the Nicholas reaction, which requires having the nucleophile connected to the alkyne unit. Here, we report the synthesis of 1-oxa-3-cyclooctynes starting from commercially available (1R,3S)-camphoric acid. The strategy is based on the initial preparation of propargylic alcohols, complexation of the triple bond with Co₂(CO)₈, and treatment with BF₃·Et₂O to induce an intramolecular Nicholas reaction with the free hydroxyl group as nucleophile. Finally, oxidative deprotection of the alkyne afforded the cyclooctynes in good yields. Notably, large-sized R substituents at the chiral center connected to the O atom were oriented in such a way that steric interactions were minimized in the cyclization, allowing the formation of cyclooctynes exclusively with (R) configuration, in good agreement with theoretical predictions. Moreover, preliminary studies demonstrated that these cyclooctynes were reactive in the presence of azides yielding substituted triazoles.
