Abstract

4-Substituted-2,3-1H-benzoxazine-1-thiones were prepared by the treatment of the corresponding benzoxazine-1-ones with P₂S₅. The thermal rearrangement of 4-substituted-2.3-1H-benzoxazine-1-thiones, catalysed by metallic copper, yielded 4-substituted-2.3-1 H-benzthiazine-1-ones.

Mass spectrometric studies of cis- and trans-1a,3-disubstituted-1, 1-dichloro-4-formyl-1a ,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1H-azirino [ 1,2-a] [1,5] benzodiazepines

The mass spectrometric behaviour of four cis- and trans-la, 3-disubstituted -1,1 -dichloro-4-formyl-1a,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1H-azirino[1, 2-a] [1,5] benzodiazepines has been studied with the aid of mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectrometry and exact mass measurements under electron impact ioniza-tion. All compounds show a tendency to eliminate a chlorine atom from the aziridine ring, and then eliminate a neutral propene or styrene from the diazepine ring to yield azirino[ 1, 2-6][1,3]benzimidazole ions. These azmno[1,2-a] [1,5]-benzodiazepines can also eliminate HCl, or Cl plus HG simultaneously to undergo a ring enlargement rearrangement to yield 1,6-benzodiazocine ions, which further lose small molecular fragments, propyne or phenylacetylene, with rearrangement to give quinoxaline ions.     

Acid-Catalyzed Isomerization of 1-Halo-2-Arylthioalk-1-Enes

1-Halo-2-arylthioalk-1-enes, the anti-Markovnikov adducts of 1,2-halosulfenylation of terminal alkynes containing propargyl hydrogen atoms, were found to transform into a mixture of E - and Z -isomers of 1-halo-2-arylthioalk-2-enes under acid catalysis conditions. A plausible mechanism of rearrangement is proposed. The Markovnikov adducts 2-halo-1-arylthioalk-1-enes were partially converted into their cis -form under similar conditions. The halosulfenylation products of 1-phenylpent-1-yne did not show the signs of double-bond migration in the presence of an acid; only partial isomerization of the E - to the Z -isomers took place.     

Reaction of 1-Aryl-1H-1,2,3-Triazole-4-Carbonyl Chlorides/Isothiocyanates with 3-Amino-5-Methylisoxazole

Abstract

1-Aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl chlorides were selected as starting materials for the Boulton–Katritzky rearrangement. When 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole was acylated by 1-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl chlorides, 1-aryl-5-methyl-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxamides 5 were obtained and no further rearrangement occurred. On the other hand, when 1-aryl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl chlorides were first converted into isothiocyanates by the reaction with KSCN and then were allowed to react with 3-amino-5-methylisoxazole 4 in one pot, intermediate thioureas were formed and spontaneously transformed in statu nascendi into 1,2,4-thiadiazole derivatives 6.

Mechanism of the condensation reaction between 1-aryl- and heteroaryl-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinones and aldehydes

4-Benzylidene-1-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinone, the intermediary product of the carbonyl condensation reaction between 1-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinone and benzaldehyde, rearranges in the presence of an equivalent quantity of sodium hydride into 4-benzyl-1-phenyl-3(2H)-isoquinolinone. As the possibility of the migration of the hydrogen at C-1 in the form of a proton or a hydrogen atom (radical reaction) was excluded, the mechanism of the rearrangement could be depicted as an intermolecular hydride anion migration. In case of the 1-(4-pyridyl)- and 1-(3-pyridyl)-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinones, however, the rearrangement can be carried out also in polyphosphoric acid and in this case a proton loss-proton gain mechanism was proved.     

Tetraalkyl Hydroxymethylene-bisphosphonate and Dialkyl 1-Diphenylphosphinoyl-1-hydroxy-ethylphosphonate Derivatives by the Pudovik Reaction and Their Rearranged Products

The reaction of diethyl α-oxoethylphosphonate and diethyl oxobenzylphosphonate with diethyl phosphite, dimethyl phosphite, and diphenylphosphine oxide affords, depending on the substrates and conditions (nature and quantity of the amine catalyst, temperature, and solvent), the Pudovik adduct and/or the corresponding >P(O)–CH–O–P(O)< product formed by rearrangement. The nature of the substituent on the central carbon atom (a methyl or phenyl group) influences the inclination for the rearrangement. The asymmetric products (either adducts or rearranged species) with different P(O)Y functions (Y = RO or Ph) exhibit interesting NMR features.     

1, 5-Rearrangement of enol acylates of aryl 1H.-1, 2, 4-triazol-1-ylmethyl ketones

The rearrangement of enol acylates of aryl 1H-1, 2, 4-triazol-1-ylmethyl ketones at 140–150°C in acetic anhydride is studied. The migration of the acyl group to the C(5) atom of the heterocycle is found to be intramolecular. The characteristics of the original and final products are presented. X-ray structural studies of the enol acetates of 2, 4-dichlorophenyl 1H-1, 2, 4-triazol-1-ylmethyl ketone and 2, 4-dichlorophenyl 5-acetyl-1H-1, 2, 4-triazol-1-ylmethyl ketone are carried out.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Kinetics of rearrangement of 2,4-dichlorophenyl-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)ketone enol acetate

The kinetics of rearrangement of 2,4-dichlorophenyl(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)ketone enol acetate into 2,4-dichlorophenyl(5-acetyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-l-ylmethyl)ketone were investigated by¹H NMR spectroscopy. It was shown that this rearrangement is a first-order reaction. The rate constant was measured in the 129–156°C range and the activation parameters of the reaction were determined. A hypothesis concerning the intramolecular character of the observed rearrangement was drawn based on the kinetic data.Institute of Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of the Moldovian Republic, 277014 Kishinev.

Base-induced rearrangement of 4-amidino-3-R-furoxans into 1-substituted 3-(1-nitroalkyl)-5-R-1H-1,2,4-triazoles

A new base-induced rearrangement of furoxans, viz., a recyclization of 4-amidino-3-Rfuroxans into 1-substituted 3-(1-nitroalkyl)-5-R-1H-1,2,4-triazoles in the presence of alkali metal alkoxides and into 3-acyl-5-R-1H-1,2,4-triazoles in aqueous alkaline solutions, was found.     

FeCl3·6H2O-promoted skeleton-rearrangement of 1-substituted-3-benzazepines: substrate extension and product utilization

FeCl₃·6H₂O-promoted skeleton-rearrangement of 1-substituted-3-benzazepines was further exploited. Both 1-aryl- and 1-alkyl- or 1-alkenyl-benzazepines underwent this reaction smoothly. The rearrangement products were used to prepare a series of novel derivatives containing both tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) and tetrahydropyrimidin-4(1H)-one scaffolds through a Mannich-type process.     

Photolysis of organopolysilanes. Photochemical formation and reactions of 1-trimethylsilyl-1-phenyl-1-silacyclopropene derivatives

The photolysis of tris(trimethylsilyl)phenylsilane (I) in the presence of 1-hexyne, 3,3-dimethyl-1-butyne, trimethylsilylacetylene, 3-hexyne, 1-trimethylsilylpropyne, 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene and 2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-hexyne afforded the respective silacyclopropenes. The silacyclopropenes produced from monosubstituted acetylenes underwent photochemical isomerization to give disilanylacetylene derivatives, via a 1,2-hydrogen shift in the silacyclopropene ring. Irradiation of I in the presence of 3-hexyne, 1-trimethylsilylpropyne or 2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-hexyne, gave the corresponding silacyclopropenes which could be isolated by preparative GLC. The silacyclopropene from 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene, however, readily underwent thermal rearrangement to give [bis(trimethylsilyl)phenylsily] trimethylsilylacetylene via a 1,2-trimethylsilyl shift. This type of rearrangement was also found in the photochemical process.     

Amine electrosynthesis from 1-ethyl-4-nitro-3-cyanopyrazole

Polarography and preparative electrolysis are used to show that the electrochemical behavior of 1-ethyl-4-nitro-3-cyanopyrazole (1) in acidic aqueous-alcoholic solutions resembles the behavior of nitrobenzene. By varying the parameters of the electroreduction (ER) of compound 1, one can obtain either 1-ethyl-4-amino-3-cyanopyrazole (2) or 1-ethyl-4-amino-3-cyano-5-chloropyrazole (3). Compound 2 is formed during the ER of compound 1 in the presence of a mediator (titanium(III)) at temperatures below 10°C. Compound 3 is produced by the direct reduction of compound 1 on a lead electrode (30% ethanol, 10% HCl). The yield of amine chlorohydrates 2 and 3 is 56 and 92%, respectively. The mediated ER of compound 1 at catholite temperatures higher than 10°C yields a mixture of compounds 2 and 3; the proportion of the latter increases with temperature to become the major product at 60°C. Compound 3 is formed due to the rearrangement of the hydroxylamine derivative produced by the ER of compound 1, followed by the substitution of chlorine for the hydroxy group.     

UNPRECEDENTED OUTCOME OF BASE-PROMOTED NEBER REARRANGEMENT OF O-MESYLOXIME OF 2-ARYL-1,2,3,4-TETRAHYDRO-1-METHYLSUL FONYL-4-QUINOLONE- SYNTHESIS OF 4-AMINO-2-ARYLQUINOLINES

Abstract

O-Mesyloximes derived from 2-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-methylsulfonyl-4-quinolones react with sodium ethoxide in ethanol to afford the 4-amino-2-arylquinolines in high yield. No traces of the 3-amino-2-aryl-4-quinolones expected from the Neber rearrangement of the substrates were detected or isolated from the reaction mixture. The structures of the products were determined using a combination of ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR and mass spectroscopic techniques.     

A novel rearrangement of 1-(2-aminoaryl)imidazoles

6-Ethyl-2,4-bis(1H-imidazol-1-yl)pyrimidin-5-amine was found to undergo a novel rearrangement in the presence of acetic anhydride. The structure of the rearrangement product was deduced using a combination of one- and two-dimensional nmr methods. Confirmation of the structure was obtained by unambiguous synthesis of a reduced analog and establishment of the identity of this material with material prepared by reduction of the rearrangement product. Examination of three related cases indicated that the rearrangement process is significant only when both positions adjacent to the aryl amino group are substituted.     

Lithium perchlorate-catalysed rearrangement of 1-methylcyclohex-2-enylhydroperoxide into 2-methylenecyclohexylhydroperoxide

The catalytic effect of 5 mol dm^?3 solution of LiClO₄ in Et₂O on the rearrangement of 1-methylcyclohex-2-enylhydroperoxide into 2-methylenecyclohexylhydroperoxide has been observed.     

Synthesis of 9-alkylidene-9H-fluorenes by a novel, palladium-catalyzed cascade reaction of aryl halides and 1-aryl-1-alkynes.

In the presence of a palladium catalyst and NaOAc, aryl iodides react with 1-aryl-1-alkynes to afford 9-alkylidene-9H-fluorenes in good yields. The products from this reaction are highly dependent on the base employed. This process appears to involve (1) oxidative addition of the aryl iodide to Pd(0), (2) alkyne insertion, (3) rearrangement of the resulting vinylic palladium intermediate to an arylpalladium species, and (4) aryl-aryl coupling with simultaneous regeneration of the Pd(0) catalyst. Consistent with this mechanism is the fact that 9-alkylidene-9H-fluorenes can also be prepared by the Pd-catalyzed rearrangement of 1,1-diaryl-2-iodo-1-alkenes.     

Novel Preparation of Methoxy Carbamates of 1-Protected Indole- 3-methylamines as Precursor of Indole-3-methylamine

Indole-3-methylamine (1) has been well demonstrated to be a very useful intermediate as a pharmaceutical building block and starting material for syntheses of phytoalexins.[1] The instability of indole-3-methylamine (1) has undoubtedly restricted its application in synthetic chemistry. Hofmann rearrangement that directly converts carboxamides to alky carbamates in the presence of alcohol required unexceptionally a strong base,[2] which devaluated the possible usefulness of Hofmann rearrangement in preparation of base sensitive amines, especially for the preparation of unstable indole-3-methylamine (1). Herein we would like to report a convenient method for the preparation of alkyl carbamates of 1-protected indole-3-methylamines (4) via the diacetoxyiodobenzene (DIB) promoted Hofmann rearrangement under neutral condition.     

Studies on the mechanism of decomposition of 1-methyl-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl hydroperoxides to 2-(1-naphthyloxy)propenes

Abstract  

Thermal decomposition of 1-methyl-1-(4-methyl-1-naphthyl)ethyl hydroperoxide under gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC–MS) conditions gives 2-((4-methyl-1-naphthyl)oxy)propene as the main product (50.5%), without any detectable traces of the isomeric 2-((5-methyl-1-naphthyl)oxy)propene. This finding excludes the rearrangement pathway of 1-methyl-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl hydroperoxides to the corresponding 2-(1-naphthyloxy)propenes, which involves formation of a naphthofuran derivative as an intermediate and transfer of the isopropenyloxy group to the 8 position. This result, as well as our previous density functional theory (DFT) calculations, points to the rearrangement pathway involving an oxirane-type intermediate as the most plausible pathway to 2-(1-naphthyloxy)propenes. This rearrangement is responsible for the unusual inhibition effects of 1-methyl-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl hydroperoxide on the liquid-phase oxidation of isopropylarenes with oxygen.     

Inter- und intramolekulare Umlagerung der Sulfogruppe in 2-Naphtol-1-sulfonsäure

The isomerisation of 2-naphthol-1-sulfonic acid (potassium salt) into 2-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid has been studied using labelled sulfuric acid (H₂³⁵SO₄). In 40 to 50% aqueous sulfric acid the reaction takes place exclusively by an intermolecular mechanism (protio-desulfonation and resulfonation). In glacial acetic acid, in the presence of an excess of sulfuric acid, the rearrangement is partly intramolecular. With an equimolar amount of sulfuric acid the rearrangement is completely intramolecular. This reaction is first order with respect to 2-naphthol-1-sulfonic acid and zeroth order with respect to excess of sulfuric acid. A mechanism for the reaction is proposed.
