Alkylation of some 6-substituted purines under interphase catalysis conditions

The mixture of 9-, 3-, and 7-benzyl-6-substituted purines is formed in almost quantitative yield by the alkylation of 6-benzylamino-, 6-furfurylamino-, 6-methylthio-, and 6-chloropurine with benzyl halides in the biphasic system of the liquid-liquid or liquid-solid type in the presence of interphase catalysts (quaternary ammonium salts, 18-crown-6). The catalytic activity of the quaternary ammonium salts increases with the increase in the lipophilicity of the cation. Taking the alkylation of 6-benzylaminopurine as an example, the possibility of the application of triphasic catalysis in the alkylation reaction of purines is indicated. The alkylation of 6-substituted purines with isopropyl bromide proceeds regioselectively under the conditions of the interphase catalysis with the formation of the corresponding 9-isopropylpurines.For the preliminary communication, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 113–118, January, 1987.     

Study of the properties and reactivities of 6-substituted 4-thioquinaldones with some electrophilic reagents

In contrast to 4-thiopyridones, 4-thioquinolones react with acrylonitrile to form only S-derivatives and also give only derivatives of the thiol form with methyl iodide and diazomethane. The UV spectra of alcohol solutions and the IR spectra of solid samples of 4-thioquinolones indicate that they have thione structures.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1688–1691, December, 1971.     

The influence of varying reaction conditions on the coordination behavior of the phosphonoformate anion

Abstract

In medical and pharmaceutical science phosphonic acids and phosphonates play an important role with regard to their wide application in various drugs as medicines against osteoporosis or antiviral agents. In the course of the investigations on the coordination chemistry of biologically active phosphonates different salts of the phosphonoformate anion were prepared via hydrolysis of corresponding esters under basic conditions. Depending on the reaction and crystallization conditions, different sodium salts with the phosphonoformate moiety were obtained and structurally characterized.     

13C NMR spectra of some 4-substituted protoadamantanes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of some mono- and geminal disubstituted protoadamantanes have been assigned with the aid of shift reagents.     

The mass spectra of some 7-methoxycoumarin derivatives with differing 6-substituted C5 isoprenoid sidechains

The mass spectra of several biogenetically and chemically inter-related coumarins (I to XVII) have been examined, and fragmentation pathways proposed on the basis of metastable evidence and deuterium labelling studies. The particular modification of the isoprenoid sidechain present in each compound directs fragmentation and gives rise to characteristic mass spectral cleavage patterns which may be useful for structural elucidation.     

Transformations of some 6- and 7-substituted 1,2,3-benzothiadiazoles

The preparation of some 6- and/or 7-substituted derivatives of 1,2,3-benzothiadiazole is described. The reactivity of some compounds was investigated in view of the possibility that 1,2,3-benzothiadiazoles may behave as masked diazo compounds. 7-Diazo or diazonium compounds were prepared but no interaction with the thiadiazole part could be observed.     

Study of the properties and structure of 6-substituted 2-thionolepidines

It has been shown that 2-thioquinolones are weaker conjugate acids and bases than 4-thioquinolones [1]. The UV spectra of solutions and the IR spectra of crystalline 6-substituted 2-thionolepidines confirm the predominance of the thione structure. It was found that 2-thioquinolones exist in the form of a dipolar ion. In contrast to 2-thiopyridones, 2-thioquinolones form derivatives of only the thiol form with methyl iodide, diazomethane, and acrylonitrile. The pK _a (–H)⁺ values are correlated with the J constants.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 521–524, April, 1973.     

TBAF-catalyzed synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles under solventless conditions

Tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) is an efficient catalyst in the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of organic nitriles 1 with trimethylsilyl azide (TMSN(3)) in solventless conditions. The corresponding 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles 2 were obtained under mild conditions and in 80-97% yields.     

Behavior of 6-cyclopropyl- and 6-bromo-7-cyclopropyl-1,4-benzodioxanes under electrophilic substitution reaction conditions

Bromination of 6-cyclopropyl-1,4-benzodioxane occurs with concerted orientation of the ethylenedioxy group and the cyclopropyl radical for the least sterically hindered position of the aromatic ring. Nitration of 6-bromo-7-cyclopropyl-1,4-benzodioxane does not lead to products of substitution of the hydrogen atom in the 5 or 8 position of the 1,4-benzodioxane, but rather to the nitrodebromination product: 7-nitro-6-cyclopropyl-1,4-benzodioxane. The anomalous behavior of the bromo-substituted benzodioxane is explained by the predisposition of the carbon atom bonded to the bromine towardipso attack by an electrophile.M. V.

Investigations under quasi-isothermal and quasi-isobaric conditions by means of the Derivatograph

It is proved that under the conditions of dynamic thermoanalytical examinations the course of a decomposition reaction is determined primarily by the gas- and heattransfer partial processes, i.e. indirectly by the experimental conditions. This raises the question of whether it is justified to make kinetic calculations based on the shapes of similar curves. A new measuring technique is reported which uses a slightly modified Derivatograph. With this new method decomposition reactions can be examined under “quasi-isothermal” and “quasi-isobaric” conditions. The pernicious effects of the gas- and heat-transfer processes are thus eliminated, and the shapes of the curves obtained provide the possibility of studying the decomposition reactions in a new and more thorough way.     

Investigations and molecular modeling of some thermophysical properties of polysulfones

Degradation of commercial polysulfones (PSF) was investigated in air and in inert atmosphere (nitrogen) using thermogravimetric (TG) method. It has been found that the degradation of Udel P-1800 PSF is initiated about 400°C, both in air and in nitrogen. The activation energy of degradation of PSF, (E _a), has been calculated by the Kissinger and Ozawa methods. The value ofE _a about 200 kJ·mol^?1 has been found for both air and nitrogen atmosphere. Experimental results concerning thermal properties of PSF (T _g andT _d,1/2) were compared with those obtained by the computer modeling technique, and a good agreement has been found.

Four di-Cu(II)-substituted sandwich-type germanomolybdates obtained under different reaction conditions: from zero-dimensional to two-dimensional structure

Four di-Cu(II)-substituted sandwich-type germanomolybdates, (H(2)en)(2)H(7){[Na(0.5)(H(2)O)(3.5)](2)[Cu(2)(β-Y-GeMo(9)O(33))(2)]}·6H(2)O (1), (H(2)en)(2)H{[Na(2.5)(H(2)O)(12)](2)[Cu(en)(2)][Cu(2)(β-Y-GeMo(9)O(33))(2)]}·8H(2)O (2), [Na(4)(H(2)O)(12)](2)H(4)[Cu(2)(β-Y-GeMo(9)O(33))(2)]}·11H(2)O (3) and [Cu(en)(2)](2)[Cu(en)(2)(H(2)O)](2){[Cu(en)(2)](2)[Cu(2)(β-Y-GeMo(9)O(33))(2)]}·8H(2)O (4) (en = ethylenediamine), have been prepared. It is interesting that 1-3 were obtained in the same aqueous solution reaction system but exhibited different structures: 1 displays a 0D structure, 2 shows an organic-inorganic 1D chain structure, while 3 displays a 2D network. 4 was synthesized under hydrothermal condition by the same reagents, which represents the first transition metal-sandwiched organic-inorganic 2D heteropolymolybdate.     

Biomimetic reductive amination under the continuous-flow reaction conditions

This study present a full account of continuous-flow reaction conditions for biomimetic reductive amination of fluorinated carbonyl compounds to corresponding amines and amino acids of biomedical importance. We demonstrate that simple silica-adsorbed DBU can be used as efficient catalysts for on-column 1,3-proton shift reaction, a key transformation in the biomimetic reductive amination process. This new on-column process features operationally convenient conditions, higher chemical yields, enantioselectivity and purity of the corresponding products as compared with traditional in-flask reactions. Moreover the removal of base-catalyst, the most delicate problem of the in-flask reactions, is not an issue in the on-column process, as the silica-adsorbed DBU or polymer-bound guanidine remains on the column and can be reused. This feature renders the overall process substantially more economical and synthetically efficient, in particular, for large-scale synthesis of the corresponding fluorinated amines and amino acids target.
