Synthesis and corrosion-protective properties of acetylenic esters of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid

A procedure was developed for preparing acetylenic esters of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylic acid. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The Kovats indices of the compounds were determined, and their boiling points were estimated by gas-liquid chromatography. The protective properties of the esters against acid corrosion of steel were studied.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Khimii, Vol. 77, No. 8, 2004, pp. 1331–1335.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Mamedov.     

Synthesis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carbonitriles and -6-carboxylic acid esters

Dieckmann ring closure reactions of 4-[(2-cyanoethyl)substituted amino]-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylates (Ha-f) afforded several 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5-oxo-2-phenylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6- carbonitriles (IIIa-f). The open-chain intermediates (IIa-f) were prepared by dechloroamination of 5-carbethoxy-4-chloro-2-phenylpyrimidine (1a) with several 3-substituted amino- propionitriles. Alkylation of the sodium salt of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-8-methyl-5-oxo-2-phenyl-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6- carbonitrile (IIIa) with methyl iodide in DMF resulted in methylation at C-6 to afford IV. Tosylation of IIIa in pyridine gave the corresponding tosyl ester (V) of the enolic form. Oxidative dehydrogenation at the 6,7-position resulted when IIIa reacted with thionyl chloride, affording 5,8-dihydro-8-methyl-5-oxo-2-phenylpyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6- carbonitrile (VII). Dechloroamination of la or 5-carbethoxy-4-chloro-2-methylthiopyrimidine (Ib) with ethyl 3-ethylaminopropionate followed by Dieckmann cyclization of the resulting open-chain intermediates gave the corresponding ethyl 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5-oxopyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates IX'a and IX'b, respectively. These exist predominately in the enol form and undergo alkylation and oxidation reactions similar to IIIa.     

Synthesis of 5-methylfuro[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid

Oxidation of 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-hydroxymethylpyridine with manganese dioxide yielded the corresponding aldehyde, the condensation of which with diethyl bromomalonate furnished hydroxydihydrofuro[3,2-b]pyridinediearboxylie acid ester. Saponification of the diester with concentrated hydrochloric acid afforded the hydrochloride of 5-methylfuro[3,2-b]pyrjdine car-boxylic acid.     

Synthesis of 3-(4-heteroaryl-phenyl)-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-2-carboxylic acid methyl esters

Cross coupling protocols were applied for the synthesis of 3-(4-heteroaryl-phenyl)-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene-2-carboxylic acid methyl esters. Stille conditions produced the corresponding products in reasonable yields. Samarium iodide reduction of the resulting coupling products produced the 2β-carbomethoxy-3α-aryl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane diastereoisomers as the major, and the 2β-carbomethoxy-3β-aryl-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane diastereoisomer as the minor products. Both diastereomers manifested inhibition of the dopamine (DAT) and serotonin (SERT) transporters, with some selectivity for SERT inhibition.     

The preparation and structure of 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexachloro-2-endo-ferrocenylhydroxymethyl-3-endo-hydroxymethyl-5-norbornene

The crystal structure of a novel ferrocene derivative with potential flame-retardant/smoke-suppressant activity, 1,4,5,6,7,7-hexachloro-2-endo-ferrocenyl-hydroxymethyl-3-endo-hydroxymethyl-5-norbornene, has been determined. Some of the carbon–carbon bonds within the chlorendic residue are unusually long, and there is no interaction between the hydroxyl groups and the iron atom. There is evidence of intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the two hydroxyl groups.     

Synthesis of 1-arylcytosine-5-carboxylic acid esters

A reaction of alkyl 2-(diaminomethylidene)-3-oxoalkanoates with arylisocyanates leads to the formation of the corresponding ureas, which upon the action of Na alkoxides cyclize to 1-aryl-6-R-cytosine-5-carboxylates. The latter reacting with arylisocyanates according to the similar scheme give rise to 3,6-diaryl-5-methylpyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2,4,7(1H,3H,6H)-triones.     

Polymerization of 2-azabicyclo[2,2,1]heptan-3-one and its copolymerization with 2-pyrrolidone

The anionic polymerization of a bridged bicyclic lactam, 2-azabicyclo[2,2,1]heptan-3-one (ABHO), was carried out in bulk and in solution under various reaction conditions. In general bulk polymerization of ABHO was superior to solution polymerization in conversion and degree of polymerization. The resulting polymer exhibited good thermal stability at temperatures up to 300°C. The melting point and decomposition temperature of this polyamide, poly(cyclopentane-1,3-diyliminocarbonyl), were about 307 and 335°C, respectively. Copolymerization of ABHO with 2-pyrrolidone was also made at 30°C and a varying weight percentage of ABHO with potassium pyrrolidonate as catalyst and CS₂ as activator. Copolyamides that contained 15 w % of ABHO decomposed at a temperature higher than the melting point by almost 30°C. Thus the thermal stability of copolymers compared with that of nylon-4, was greatly improved. Moisture sorptions of homopolymers and copolymers were always larger than those of other polyamides (nylon 4 and 6) at any relative humidity. Tenacity and elongation at the break of melt-spun fibers obtained from copolyamides that contained 15 w % of ABHO without the drawing and annealing process were 1.25 g/den and 13.1%, respectively.

Spiro[4.n]-2-aza-alkan-carboxylic acids represent bulky proline analogues with increased lipophilicity. They are readily available from cyclic nitriles via alkylation with bromoacetaldehyde acetals, reduction to the corresponding amine, cyclisation to the imine and subsequent Strecker synthesis.     

Synthesis of N-[5-alkoxy-2(5H)-furanonyl] amino acid propargyl esters

Using K₂CO₃ as a base and CH₃CN as solvent, different kinds of N-[5-alkoxy-2(5H)-furanonyl] amino acids were reacted with propargyl bromide via substitution reaction at 40?°C to give 16 N-[5-alkoxy-2(5H)-furanonyl] amino acid propargyl esters with the yields of 44?C85% (mostly over 74%). The structures of all newly synthesized compounds were elucidated and confirmed by FTIR, UV, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, MS, and elemental analysis. The rapid, efficient, and brief synthesis of the series propargyl esters with multiple bioactive units, will afford not only a basis for the activity test of potential drug molecules, but also an important synthetic strategy for 2(5H)-furanone derivatives with polyfunctional groups.

Synthesis of methyl esters of 5-amino-4-(substituted amino)-2-methylthio-7H-pyrrolo[2,3d]-pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids

The optimum route for the synthesis of methyl esters of N-[(4-substituted amino)-5-cyano-2-methylthiopyrimidin-6-yl]amino acids (which are starting materials for preparing the methyl esters of the corresponding 5-amino-4-(substituted amino)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acids) is via subsequent reactions of 4,6-dichloro-2-methylthiopyrimidine-5-carbonitrile with amines and methyl glycinate. In some examples, the reaction of methyl N-(4-chloro-2-methylthio-6-pyrimidinyl)aminoacetate with amines occurs to give the corresponding acid amides. The previously unknown synthesized derivatives of pyrimidin-6-yl amino acids and 4,5-diaminopyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine- 6-carboxylic acids possess fungicidal properties.Vilnius University, Vilnius 2006, Lithuania.

Heterocycles [h]-fused onto 4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid, Part VI [1]. Synthesis and X-ray structure of model indolo[3,2-b]- and [2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylic esters

Cyclocondensation reaction of ethyl 7,8-diamino-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate with 1-methylisatin produced a separable mixture of the corresponding indolo[3,2-b]- and [2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylates, of which the latter isomer predominates. On the other hand, interaction with 1H-isatin or 5-chloroisatin gave the respective indolo[2,3-b]pyrido[2,3-f]quinoxaline-3-carboxylates as the sole regiospecific products. The structures of these new pentacyclic derivatives are based on microanalytical, spectral (IR, MS, and NMR) and X-ray crystal structure data.
