A solvent and transition metal-free,highly efficient Brønsted acidic ionic liquid promoted one-potthree-component reactions for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted pyrroles

Abstract

The present protocol describes a highly efficient, transition metal and solvent-free one-pot annulation of amines, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates and β-nitrostyrene using imidazolium Brønsted acidic ionic liquid for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted pyrroles. A diverse functionalized tetrasubstituted pyrroles derivatives were obtained with excellent yields under transition metal and solvent-free conditions. The Brønsted acidic ionic liquid can be easily recovered and reused for the next reaction without any effects on the yields of the products. This green protocol provides structurally complex, medicinally important tetrasubstituted pyrroles with various substitution patterns in a one-pot operation.     

One-pot syntheses, coordination, and characterization of application-specific biodegradable ligand-polymers

Syntheses and chelation of tailored biodegradable polymers to rhenium for medicinal applications are described. A group of bifunctional ligand-initiators consisting of a chelating end for metal complexation and a hydroxyl end suitable to initiate polymerization was utilized in the ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide. The resulting biodegradable ligand-polymers were equipped with a tridentate donor set to coordinate specific metal ions. All synthesized compounds were characterized by IR spectroscopy, 1D/2D NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, confirming successful polymerization and coordination to the [Re(CO)(3)](+) core. The pliability of designing application-specific polymers with respect to the nature of the metal ion facilitates extending the application of these biodegradable polymers to early detection of diseases (imaging) and radiotherapy of cancers.     

Kinetics and Mechanism of the Reactions Between Triphenylphosphine,Dialkyl Acetylenedicarboxilates and a NH-Acid,Pyrazole, by UV Spectrophotometry

Kinetic studies were made of the reactions between triphenylphosphine and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence of a NH-acid such as pyrazole. To determine the kinetic parameters of the reactions, the reaction progress was monitored by UV spectrophotometry. The second-order fits were automatically drawn and the values of the second-order rate constant (k ₂) were automatically calculated using standard equations. In the temperature range studied, the dependence of ln k ₂ on the reciprocal temperature was consistent with the Arrhenius equation. Furthermore, useful information was obtained from studies of the effect of solvent, structure of the reactants (different alkyl groups within the dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates), and also the concentration of reactants on the rate of reaction. The mechanism was confirmed to involve a steady-state condition with the first step of the reaction being the rate-determining step.

Microwave-assisted one-step synthesis of polyacrylamide-metal (M = Ag, Pt, Cu) nanocomposites in ethylene glycol

Polyacrylamide-metal (M = Pt, Ag, Cu) nanocomposites with metal nanoparticles homogeneously dispersed in the polymer matrix have been successfully prepared with the corresponding metal salt and acrylamide monomer in ethylene glycol by microwave heating. This method is based on the single-step simultaneous formation of metal nanoparticles and polymerization of the acrylamide monomer, leading to a homogeneous distribution of metal nanoparticles in the polyacrylamide matrix. Ethylene glycol acts as both a reducing reagent and a solvent, thus no additional reductant is needed. Another advantage is that no initiator for AM polymerization and no surfactant for stabilization of metal nanoparticles are necessary. The products were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra, and thermogravimetric (TG) and differential scanning calorimetric analysis (DSC).

N,N′-bis(salicylidene)thiosemicarbazide Schiff base has been synthesized by the reaction of thiosemicarbazide with salicylaldehyde and then reacted with formaldehyde to generate phenolic groups, resulting in the formation of Schiff-base monomeric ligand. It was further incorporated with transition metals, Mn⁺², Co⁺², Ni⁺², Cu⁺², and Zn⁺², to form Schiff-base metal complex, which was then polymerized with toluene 2,4-diisocyanate to form metal-chelated polyurethanes. Monomeric ligand, its metal complexes, and its metal polychelates were characterized and compared by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ¹H NMR, thermal, and biocidal activities to evaluate the enhancement in physical and chemical properties on coordination with metal and on polymerization. SEM images of ligand and polymer metal complexes showed changes in surface morphology, while electronic spectra of polymer metal complexes were used to predict the geometry. Antimicrobial activities were determined by using agar-diffusion method with Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis (bacteria), Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus flavus (yeast). The polymeric ligand had varied antibacterial and antifungal activities, enhanced after chelation and polymerization. Comparative results show that coordination of metal to the ligand enhances its physical and chemical properties which were meliorated on polymerization.
