Synthesis and characterization of novel Schiff bases containing pyrimidine unit

The work involves synthesis of novel Schiff base derivatives containing a pyrimidine unit starting with chalcones. 4-Aminoacetophenone was reacted with 4-nitrobenzaldehyde or 4-chlorobenzaldehyde in basic medium giving chalcones, [I]_a and [I]_b, respectively, by Claisen-Schemidt reaction. The chalcones [I]_a and [I]_b were reacted with urea in HCl medium giving oxopyrimidines, [II]_a and [II]_b. They were also reacted with thiourea in basic medium to give thioxopyrimidines, [III]_a and [III]_b. The novel mono and bis Schiff bases, [VIII]_na, [VIII]_nb, [IX]_na, [IX]_nb, [X]_na, [X]_nb, [XI]_na, and [XI]_nb were synthesized by the reaction of pyrimidine derivatives; oxopyrimdines, [II]_a and [II]_b and thioxopyrimidines, [III]_a and [III]_b with 4-(4′-n-alkoxybenzoloxy)benzaldehyde [VI] and polymethylene-α,ω-bis-4-oxybenzaldehydes [VII]_m, respectively, in dry benzene using drops of glacial acetic acid as a catalyst. The synthesized compounds were characterized by melting points, elemental analysis, FTIR, and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Effect of the glutaraldehyde derivatives of Calix[n]arene as cross-linker reagents on lipase immobilization

Synthesis of the glutaraldehyde derivatives calix[n]arene (n = 4,6,8) (Calix[n]-GA) and using as cross-linkers for immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) have been discussed in this paper. The amino functional calix[n]arene derivatives (Calix[n]-NH ₂) were synthesized via reduction of dinitrile, hexanitrile and octanitrile derivatives of calix[n]arenes. These amino functional calix[n]arene derivatives (Calix[n]-NH ₂) were converted to their aldehyde derivativatives with glutaraldehyde. The calix[n]arene derivatives were used in lipase immobilization in order to see the role of calix[n]arene binding site on the lipase activitiy and stability. The activity recovery of calix[n]arene-supported lipases (Calix[n]-CRL) based on the Calix[4]-CRL, Calix[6]-CRL and Calix[8]-CRL reaches to 53.5, 66.1 and 76.4%, respectively.     

Influence of Amide Connectivity on the Hydrogen-Bond-Directed Self-Assembly of [n.n]Paracyclophanes

Reported here is the synthesis and self-assembly characterization of [n.n]paracyclophanes ( [n.n]pCps , n=2, 3) equipped with anilide hydrogen bonding units. These molecules differ from previous self-assembling [n.n]paracyclophanes ( [n.n]pCps ) in the connectivity of their amide hydrogen bonding units (C-centered/carboxamide vs. N-centered/anilide). This subtle change results in a ≈30-fold increase in the elongation constant for the [2.2]pCp -4,7,12,15-tetraanilide ( [2.2]pCpNTA ) compared to previously reported [2.2]pCp -4,7,12,15-tetracarboxamide ( [2.2]pCpTA ), and a ≈300-fold increase in the elongation constant for the [3.3]pCp -5,8,14,17-tetraanilide ( [3.3]pCpNTA ) compared to previously reported [3.3]pCp -5,8,14,17-tetracarboxamide ( [3.3]pCpTA ). The [n.n]pCpNTA monomers also represent the reversal of a previously reported trend in solution-phase assembly strength when comparing [2.2]pCpTA and [3.3]pCpTA monomers. The origins of the assembly differences are geometric changes in the association between [n.n]pCpNTA monomers—revealed by computations and X-ray crystallography—resulting in a more favorable slipped stacking of the intermolecular π-surfaces ( [n.n]pCpNTA vs. [n.n]pCpTA ), and a more complementary H-bonding geometry ( [3.3]pCpNTA vs. [2.2]pCpNTA ).     

Regioselectivity of cyclization of 3-allyl(propargyl)sulfanyl-5<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]indoles

The interaction of 3-allylsulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole with iodine led to 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo[2',3':3,4][1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indol-11-ium pentaiodide with an angular structure, on the basis of which 1-iodomethyl-1,2-dihydro[1,3]thiazolo-, 1-methylidene-1,2-di-hydro[1,3]thiazolo, and 1-methyl[1,3]thiazolo derivatives were obtained. The intramolecular cyclization of 3-propargyl(allyl)sulfanyl-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indoles under the influence of concentrated sulfuric acid led to linear annelated products:3-methyl[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4]tri-azino[5,6-b]indole or its 2,3-dihydro derivative.

Halocyclization of 3-allylthio-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>]indole

The synthesis of 3-allylthio-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole has been carried out by the reaction of 3-mercapto-5H-[1,2,4]triazino[5,6-b]indole with allyl bromide in the NaOH–H₂O–DMSO system and in a one-pot synthesis from isatin-β-thiosemicarbazide. Halocyclization of allylthio-5H-[1,2,4]-triazino[5,6-b]indole synthesized the 3-halomethyl-3,10-dihydro-2H-[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':2,3][1,2,4]-triazino[5,6-b]indolium halides.

[3+3] Cyclocondensation of 5-benzoyl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methylthio-1-R-1,2-dihydropyrid-2-ones with heterocyclic N,N-and N,C-1,3-dinucleophiles proceeds regioselectively to give a series of new tri-and tetracyclic heterosystems, viz. derivatives of 5,6-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-6-one, 1,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrido[2′,3′: 3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-2-one, 8,9-dihydro-5H-pyrido-[2,3-d]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-8-one, 1,2-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-a]pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-one, and 1,2-dihydrobenzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-g][1,6]naphthyridin-2-one.     

Transformation of Thia[7]helicene to Aza[7]helicenes and [7]Helicene-like Compounds via Aromatic Metamorphosis

[n]Helicenes with helically twisted structures have attracted increasing interest owing to their unique properties. Therefore, it has been an important issue to develop facile synthetic methodologies which allow access to a variety of [n]helicenes. Here we report the synthesis of [7]helicenes and [7]helicene-like compounds from the thia[7]helicene as a common starting material. Desulfurative dilithiation of the thia[7]helicene and the subsequent reaction with silicon and phosphorus electrophiles afforded the silole- and phosphole-fused [7]helicene-like compounds, respectively. The cyclopentadiene-fused [7]helicene-like compound and the pyrrole-fused aza[7]helicenes were also successfully synthesized via twofold S_NAr reactions of the thia[7]helicene S,S-dioxide with the carbon and nitrogen nucleophiles, respectively. The thia[7]helicene S,S-dioxide showed a slightly red-shifted absorption spectrum than the parent thia[7]helicene, which was well demonstrated by the theoretical calculations. The substituents on the silicon atom of silole-fused [7]helicene-like compounds have little impact on the longest absorption maximum. Such little effect of the substituents on absorption properties was also observed for cyclopentadiene-fused [7]helicene-like compounds and aza[7]helicenes and was well demonstrated by the theoretical calculations. The thia[7]helicene S,S-dioxide and the silole-fused [7]helicene-like compound exhibited bright blue emission, and the cyclopentadiene-fused [7]helicene-like compound and the aza[7]helicenes showed strong violet emission. Each single enantiomer of the aza[7]helicenes showed circularly-polarized luminescence with the dissymmetry factors of 4.2~4.4 × 10⁻³.     

New heterocyclic sym-triazolopyrimidinium systems — Quinoline,pyridazine, and phthalazine derivatives

Pyrimido[1′,2′:1,5]-sym-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazinium, pyrimido[1′,2′:1,5]-sym-triazolo-[4,3-b]phthalazinium, and pyrimido[1′,2′:1,5]-sym-triazolo[4,3-a]quinoliniumsalt derivatives were obtained by condensation of 3-amino-sym-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazinium, 3-amino-sym-triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazinium, and 1-amino-sym-triazolo[4,3-a]quinolinium salts with β-diketories and 1,1,3,3-tetraethoxypropane. The structures of the reaction products were confirmed by the P MR spectra.     

Condensed isoquinolines. 37.* Heterocyclization using 3-(arylamino)- and 3-(hetarylamino)isoquinolin-1(2H)-ones

The reaction of 3-NHR-isoquinolin-1(2H)-ones (R = Ar) with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Me3SiCl or in acetic acid leads to the formation of derivatives of dibenzo[b,f][1, 8]naphthyridin-5(6H)- one and benzo[f]isoquino[3,4-b][1, 8]naphthyridine-5,9(6H,7H)-dione. The reaction for R = Het in the presence of Me3SiCl gives derivatives of 5H-pyrido[1',2':1,2]pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, benzo[f]isoquinoline[3,4-b][1,8]naphthyridine-5,9[6H,7H]-dione, and derivatives of new heterocyclic systems, 5H-pyrazino[1',2':1,2]pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, 5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3',2':1,2]pyrimido- [4,5-c]isoquinolin-5-one, 5-H-benzo[f]pyrazolo[3,4-b][1,8]naphthyridin-5-one, and isoquino[3,4-b]- [1,5]naphthyridin-5(6H)-one. The effect of the structure of substituent R and nature of the substituent in the benzaldehydes on the structure of the reaction products was studied.     

Synthesis and Anticancer Evaluation of Some Novel 5‐Amino[1,2,4]Triazole Derivatives

Besides, benzo[h][1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b]quinazolines, [1,2,4]triazolo‐[5,1‐b]quinazoline, [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5‐a]quinazoline and [1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐d][1,2,3,5]tetrazine derivatives were also synthesized. The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against liver cancer HepG2 and breast cancer MCF7 cell lines compared with the reference drug doxorubicin. Compounds 4 , 7 , 15 , 17 , 28 , 34 , and 47 were found to exert promising anticancer activity against HepG2 cell line showing IC₅₀ values ranging from 17.69 to 25.4 μM/L, while compounds 7 , 14a , 17 , 28 , and 34 showed significant activity against MCF7 cell line with IC₅₀ values ranging from 17.69 to 27.09 μM/L.     

A modular CuI-L-proline catalyzed one-pot route for the rapid access of constrained and privileged hetero-atom-linked medium-sized ring systems

An efficient CuI-L-proline catalyzed one-pot synthesis was developed to generate a collection of skeletally diverse heterocyclic ring systems with sizes ranging from 6 to 9. A salient feature of this design strategy is its modular synthetic utility using an S_N2 reaction followed by a microwave assisted CuI-L-proline hetero-arylation, which has granted access to a series of heterocyclic frameworks including: benzo[e]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazepin, benzo[e]pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,4]diazocin, benzo[e]pyrido[1,2-a][1,4]diazocinones, dibenzo[b,f][1,5]diazoninones, dihydrodibenzo[b,e][1,4]thiazepine, dibenzo[b,e][1,4]thiazocine and benzo[6,7][1,4]diazepino[1,2-a]indole. Moreover, the synthetic procedures described herein, allows rapid entries to synthetically challenging medium-sized heterocyclic systems with good overall yields.     

Experimental Research on NO2 Viscosity and Absorption for (1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoroacetate + Triethanolamine) Binary Mixtures

The viscosity (9.34–405.92 mPa·s) and absorption capacity (0.4394–1.0562 g·g⁻¹) of (1-ethyl-3-methylidazolium trifluoroacetate + triethanolamine) binary blends atmospheric pressure in the temperature range of 303.15–343.15 K and at different mole fractions of [EMIM] [TFA] have been carried out. The molar fraction of [EMIM] [TFA] dependence of the viscosity and absorption capacity was demonstrated. The addition of a small amount of [EMIM] [TFA] into TEA led to rapidly decreased rates of binary blends’ viscosity and absorption capacity. However, the viscosity and absorption of binary blends did not decrease significantly when [EMIM] [TFA] was increased to a specific value. Compared with the molar fraction of the solution, the temperature had no obvious effect on viscosity and absorption capacity. By modeling and optimizing the ratio of viscosity and absorption capacity of ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA), it is proven that when the mole fraction of [EMIM] [TFA] is 0.58, ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA) has the best viscosity and absorption capacity at the same time. In addition, at 303.15 K, ([EMIM] [TFA] + TEA) was absorbed and desorbed six times, the absorption slightly decreased, and the desorption increased.     

Strain-Induced Ring Expansion Reactions of Calix[3]pyrrole-Related Macrocycles

The recent discovery of calix[3]pyrrole, a porphyrinogen-like tripyrrolic macrocycle, has provided an unprecedented strain-induced ring expansion reaction into calix[6]pyrrole. Here, we synthesized calix[n]furan[3-n]pyrrole (n=1∼3) macrocycles to investigate the reaction scope and mechanism of the ring expansion. Single crystal X-ray analysis and theoretical calculations revealed that macrocyclic ring strain increases as the number of inner NH sites increases. While calix[1]furan[2]pyrrole exhibited almost quantitative conversion into calix[2]furan[4]pyrrole within 5 minutes, less-strained calix[2]furan[1]pyrrole and calix[3]furan were inert. However, N-methylation of calix[2]furan[1]pyrrole induced a ring-expansion reaction that enabled the isolation of a linear reaction intermediate. The mechanism analysis revealed that the ring expansion consists of regioselective ring cleavage and subsequent cyclodimerization. This reaction was further utilized for synthesis of calix[6]-type macrocycles.

Compounds 4–6 were deprotected to 3-amino-1-β-D-ribofuranosyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b][1,2,4]-triazole ( 3 ), 3-amino-1-α-D-ribofuranosyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,5-b][1,2,4]triazole ( 8 ), and 3-imino-2H-2-β-D-ribo-furanosyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b][1,2,4]triazole ( 9 ), while 7 could not be deprotected without decomposition. Compounds 1, 4, 6, 7 , and 9 were screened and found to have no antiviral activity.     

High-Field 1H-NMR Study of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Defects

Radical poly(vinyl chlorides), (PVC), obtained in bulk and in suspension polymerizations, and their low molecular weight extracts have been thoroughly studied by high-field NMR to obtain better qualitative and quantitative analyses of their structural defects. Assignments have been achieved by ¹H-¹H decoupling experiments and hyperfine spectral structure analysis of model compounds and low molecular weight extracts. Strong effects of the nature of the solvents used in ¹H-NMR analysis were observed. Most of the defects of these radical PVC's have been quantitatively estimated in terms of average number values in correlation with their [Mbar]_n. End-groups of type [I'] (= ?CH₂?CH[dbnd]CH[sbnd]CH₂C1) are about 0.5 per chain; internal double bonds can only be estimated by difference, and their amount increases with increasing conversion. A very low quantity of vinyl chain end [I'] ([dbnd] [sbnd]CHC1[sbnd]CH[dbnd]CH₂) has been found only in low molecular weight extracts. For the three probable saturated chloromethyl ends [II] ([dbnd][sbnd]CHCl[sbnd]CH₂Cl), [III] ([dbnd] [sbnd]CH₂[sbnd]CH₂Cl), and [IV] ([dbnd] >CH[sbnd]CH₂C1), only [II] and [III] were definitely identified. Finally, in taking into account all the endgroups, it has been concluded that branches would be grafted throughout the process. On the average, 4 to 5 branches have been found per chain of high molecular weight PVC.

Binding modes of cucurbit[6]uril and cucurbit[7]uril with a series of bis-pyridinium compounds

Binding behaviors of cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) with a series of bis-pyridinium compounds N, N’-hexamethylenebis(1-alkyl-4-carbamoyl pyridinium bromide) (HBPB-n) (alkyl chain length, n = 6, 8 and 10) guests were investigated using ¹H-NMR, ESI–MS and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The results show that CB[6] and CB[7] can form [2]pseudorotaxanes with HBPB-n easily. When increasing the length of tail alkyl chain, the binding site of CB[6] at guest molecules changed from the tail to the middle part, while CB[7] remained located over the tail chain. As CB[6] and CB[7] were added in HBPB-8 aqueous solution, a [3]pseudorotaxane was formed by the inclusion of the internal middle site in CB[6] and the tail chain in CB[7].
