Esters derived from 5-phenyl-, 5-(4-methylphenyl)-, and 5-(2,5-dimethylphenyl)-1,2-oxazole-3-carboxylic and 4,5-dichloro-1,2-thiazole-3-carboxylic acids and some natural alcohols (L-menthol, grosshemin), thymol, and synthetic analogs of the latter (4-tert-butylphenol, 4-tert-octylphenol, 2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) were synthesized by reactions of the corresponding alcohols with acid chlorides.     

Synthesis of heterocycles from arylation products of unsaturated compounds: XVIII. 5-Arylfuran-2-carboxylic acids and their application in the synthesis of 1,2,4-thiadiazole, 1,3,4-oxadiazole,and [1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives

Arylation of furan-2-carboxylic acid or its methyl ester with arenediazonium chlorides in the presence of copper(II) chloride gave the corresponding 5-arylfuran-2-carboxylic acids or methyl 5-arylfuran-2-carboxylates. 5-Arylfuran-2-carbonyl chlorides reacted with potassium thiocyanate and then with 5-methyl-1,2-oxazol-3-amine to give 5-aryl-N-[3-(2-oxopropyl)-1,2,4-thiadiazol-5-yl]furan-2-carboxamides as a result of recyclization of intermediate isoxazolylthiourea derivatives. The reactions of 5-arylfuran-2-carbonyl chlorides with 5-(2-furyl)-1H-tetrazole involved opening of the tetrazole ring with elimination of nitrogen molecule and led to the formation of 2-(5-arylfuran-2-yl)-5-(2-furyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. 3-Substituted 6-(5-arylfuran-2-yl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles were obtained by condensation of 5-arylfuran-2-carboxylic acids with 5-substituted 4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols in phosphoryl chloride.     

5-Arylthiopyrimidine, 1. Mitt.: Cyclisierung von 4-Carboxyderivaten zu 10H-[1]Benzothiopyrano[3,2—d]pyrimidin-10-onen

Potassium 2-methylthio-5-bromopyrimidine-4-carboxylate was condensed with thiophenoxide ion containing various electron releasing groups to produce 2-methylthio-5-arylthiopyrimidine 4-carboxylic acids. Some of these acids were cyclized through their acid chlorides with anhydrous aluminum chloride to their corresponding 10H-[1]benzothiopyrano[3.2—d]pyrimidin-10-ones.     

Cycloalkanes XI. Friedel-Crafts Condensation of Polynuclear Aromatic Compounds with Cis-4-Cyclohexene-1, 2-Dicarboxylic Acid Anhydride

The anhydride of cis-4-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic acid was condensed with phenanthrene, acenaphthene and fluorene in the presence of anhydrous aluminium chloride to give the corresponding 2-(aroyl) cyclohex-4-ene-1-carboxylic acids. These keto acids when subjected to Wolf-Kishner reduction yielded the corresponding 2-(aryl) cyclohex-4-ene-1-carboxylic acids, which were then converted into their respective acid chlorides by refluxing with thionyl chloride in benzene. The acid chlorides in turn were cyclised by anhydrous aluminium chloride in carbon disulphide to give the corresponding cyclic ketones. These cyclic ketones were then reduced by Wolf-Kishner method to furnish the desired hydrocarbons, 2,3-cyclohex-2′-ene-5,6-substituted cyclohexanes.     

A combinatorially convenient version of synthesis of 5-substituted oxazole-4-carboxylic acid ethyl esters

Reaction of ethyl isocyanoacetic acid with sodium hydride in anhydrous benzene, followed by treatment with carboxylic acid chlorides or N-(acyloxy)pyrrolidine-2,5-diones, gives 5-substituted oxazole-4-carboxylic acid esters. The procedure is applicable to derivatives of various carboxylic acids, including saturated aliphatic, α,β-unsaturated, alicyclic, aromatic, heterocyclic, and N-Boc-protected amino acids.     

Synthesis of functionally substituted isoxazole and isothiazole derivatives

Acylation of benzene and toluene with 5-phenyl- and 5-(p-tolyl)isoxazole-3-carbonyl chlorides gave 5-phenyl(or p-tolyl)isoxazol-3-yl phenyl(or p-tolyl)ketones which were reduced to the corresponding alcohols with sodium tetrahydridoborate in propan-2-ol. Selective reduction of the carboxy group in 4,5-dichloroisothiazole-3-carboxylic acid was achieved by the action of BH₃, and the aldehyde group in 4-formyl-2-methoxyphenyl 5-arylisoxazole-3-carboxylates and 4,5-dichloroisothiazole-3-carboxylates was reduced to hydroxymethyl group with sodium triacetoxyhydridoborate in benzene. Acylation of the resulting hydroxymethyl derivatives with 5-arylisoxazole- and 4,5-dichloroisothiazole-3-carbonyl chlorides afforded the corresponding esters containing two azole fragments in their molecules.     

CHLOROSULFONATION OF SOME COMPOUNDS CONTAINING TWO PHENYL RINGS

Abstract

Diphenylmethane (1) and dibenzyl (17) reacted with chlorosulphonic acid to give the corresponding p,p′-disulphonyl chlorides (2,18). However, attempted chlorosulfonations of α-chloro-, αα′-dichlorodiphenylmethane, stilbene and 1,4-diphenylbutadiene were unsuccessful.

Diphenylacetic acid reacted with chlorosulfonic acid to give a mixture of 4,4′-dichlorosulfonyl-benzophenone (40) and α-chlorodiphenylmethane-4,4′-disulfonyl chloride (39). Benzilic acid (41) afforded 9-chlorofluorene-2,7-disulfonyl chloride (42), which with amines gave 3 different products according to the reaction conditions. Fluorene (53) and the 9-carboxylic acid (43) have been treated with chlorosulfonic acid. The various sulfonyl chlorides were converted into 43 derivatives for biocidal evaluation. Mechanistic interpretations for the reactions are included.     

Investigation of 2,3-polymethylenequinolines

The arylhydrazides of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine-9-carboxylic and 2,3-pentamethylene-quinoline-4-carboxylic acids were obtained by the reaction of the hydrochlorides of the acid chlorides of these acids with arylhydrazines. Their properties and biological activity were investigated.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 546–547, April, 1972.     

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acids and their 6,8-difluoro analogs

Alkylation of 6,7-difluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester with substituted-benzyl chlorides gave 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6,7-difluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters. Their treatment with piperazine or N-methylpiperazine in pyridine yielded 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(l-piperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl esters which were hydrolyzed with aqueous sodium hydroxide and then acidified with hydrochloric acid afforded the desired 1-(substituted-benzyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-iperazinyl)quinoline-3-carboxylic acids. The 6,8-difluoro analogs were prepared similarly using 6,7,8-trifluoro-4-hydroxyquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as a starting material. Some of these quinolones demonstrated fairly good antibacterial activities. Among them, 6-fluoro-1-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-iperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 7d ) and 6,8-difluoro-1-(3-fluorophenylmethyl)-1,4-dihydro-7-(1-piperazinyl)-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ( 8c ) are two of the best.

Novel synthesis of the pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazocine ring system via a Dieckmann condensation

A novel four-step synthesis to the pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazocine ring system is described. 1H-Pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde was alkylated with ethyl or methyl bromoacetate and the resulting ethyl or methyl (2-formyl-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)acetates oxidised with potassium permanganate to the corresponding 1-[(2-ethoxy or methoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acids. The latter was converted into their acid chlorides by reaction with thionyl chloride and without isolation transformed into the respective methyl 2-({[1-(2-ethoxy or methoxy-2-oxoethyl)-1H-pyrrol-2-yl]carbonyl}amino)benzoates by reaction with methyl anthranilate. Dieckmann condensation of methyl 2-({[1-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)-1H-pyrrol-2-yl]carbonyl}amino)benzoate provided the pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazocine.     

Aspects of tautomerism. 8. Solvolysis of some pseudo and normal acid chlorides

Pseudo acid chlorides derived from levulinic acid ando-benzoyl-benzoic acid, solvolyse in aqueous acetone, aqueous dioxane and aqueous dimethylformamide by aS _Nl process. Their reaction pattern is distinct from that of typical normal acid chlorides, viz.,p-benzoylbenzoyl chloride and fluorene-9-one-1-carboxylic acid chloride, which solvolyse by aS _N2 pathway. No evidence for tautomerism could be obtained either between the normal and pseudo forms of the acid chlorides or the derived ion pairs.     

Fluorénacènes et fluorénaphènes synthèses dans la série des indéno-fluorènes,XVII. Dérivés méthylés du cis-fluorénacène,du trans-fluorénacène et du trans-fluorénaphène

By condensation of the chlorides of the three 9-oxo-fluorene-2-, -3-, and -4-carboxylic acids with 4-bromo-1,2-xylene on one side, and of the chlorides of o-bromobenzoic acid, 2-bromo-4-methyl-benzoic acid and 2-bromo-4,5-dimethyl-benzoic acid with fluorene, 2-methylfluorene and 3-methylfluorene on the other side, followed by direct or indirect cyclisation and by final reduction, several new methyl derivatives of the indenofluorenes I, II and IV are synthesized.     

New polymer syntheses. 60. Thermostable polymers of 2-(hydroxyaryl)benzoxazole-5-carboxylic acids

Tristrimethylsilyl-3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid was condensed with various aromatic acetoxy carboxylic acid chlorides in Marlotherms-S® at 20–350°C. Under these conditions formation of an amide group, ring closure to benzoxazole groups and polycondensation occur step by step in a “one-pot procedure”. The crude polyesters were hydrolyzed to yield pure 2-(hydroxyaryl) benzoxazole-5-carboxylic acids which were acetylated and polycondensed. The pure polyesters obtained in this way were characterized by viscosity and DSC measurements, WAXS-powder patterns, and thermogravimetric analyses. The polyester of 2-(4-hydrophenyl) benzoxazole-5-carboxylic acid has a degree of crystallinity > 90% and a short term in thermostability in air up to 500°C.     

5-Chloroisoxazoles: A Versatile Starting Material for the Preparation of Amides,Anhydrides, Esters,and Thioesters of 2H-Azirine-2-carboxylic Acids

Amides, anhydrides, esters, and thioesters of 2H-azirine-2-carboxylic acids were prepared by a rapid procedure at room temperature involving FeCl₂-catalyzed isomerization of 5-chloroisoxazoles to 2H-azirine-2-carbonyl chlorides, followed by reaction with N-, O-, or S-nucleophiles mediated by an ortho-substituted pyridine. With readily available chloroisoxazoles and a nucleophile, 2-picoline can be used as an inexpensive base. When a high yield of the acylation product is important, the reagent 2-(trimethylsilyl)pyridine/ethyl chloroformate is more suitable for the acylation with 2H-azirine-2-carbonyl chlorides.     

A study on synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 4-acyl-pyrazoles

4-Acyl-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acids (1) were synthesized via the reaction of 4-acyl-2,3-furandiones (F) with hydrazone (1-benzylidene-2-(2,5-dimethyl-phenyl)-hydrazine) by heating under solid phase and their acid chlorides (2) were obtained. Then these derivatives were easily converted into the corresponding derivatives such as ester, amide, ureide, pyrazolo-pyridazine, etc. Totally 62 new compounds were synthesized. The structures of these new synthesized compounds were determined by spectroscopic methods and the in vitro antibacterial activity of newly synthesized compounds were carried out against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria by well diffusion method (zone inhibition). Our results have showed that these new synthesized compounds have much potent of antibacterial activity owing to containing of pyrazole and/or pyridazine, chromone, oxazine, furane, and pyrrole rings. Some of the new pyrazole derivatives exhibited higher activities than reference drugs against the representative bacteria.

An efficient method for the preparation of benzyl γ-ketohexanoates

Twenty acid chlorides, 4-(mono/di-benzyloxy)-4-ketobutanoyl chlorides (Ia–XXa) were synthesised by the reaction of monoesters of succinic acid with thionyl chloride. The product thus obtained (4-benzyloxy-4-ketobutanoyl chlorides) was treated with diethylcadmium to convert it into the corresponding keto-esters (Ib–XXb), the mono/di-benzyl-γ-ketohexanoates, with a good yield. All the compounds thus prepared were characterised by physical, spectroscopic (UV-VIS, IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR), and mass measurements techniques.
