Acylpyruvic acids readily react with 2,3-diaminopyridine to form (Z)-3-acylmethylene-1H-3,4-di- hydropyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-2-ones. 5-Aryl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones which can be regarded as lactones derived from -enolized aroylpyruvic acids react with 2,3-diaminopyridine under mild conditions, yielding regioisomeric (Z)-2-aroylmethylene-4H-1,2-dihydropyrido[2,3-b]pyrazin-3-ones. The structure of the products and reaction chemoselectivity are discussed.

Azimine. VI. 1-Alkoxycarbony 1-2,3-dialkyl- und -2,3-diaryl-azimine

Azimines VI: 1-Alkoxycarbonyl-2,3-dialkyl- and -2,3-diarylazimines Alkoxycarbonyl-nitrenes 2 – generated in situ by α-elimination from N-[(4-nitrophenyl)-sulfonyloxy]carbamates 4 – were reacted with six aliphatic and aromatic azo compounds to yield 1-alkoxycarbonyl-azimines 11 (R′ = Alkyl). Thus, (2Z)- or (2E)- 1 -alkoxycarbonyl-2,3-diisopropyl-azimines ( 8 or 9 ) were obtained stereospecifically from (E)- or (Z)-1,1′-dimethylazoethane ( 5 or 6 ) and 1-alkoxycarbonyl -2,3-(cis-1,3-cyclopentylene)-azimines ( 10 ) resulted from 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]-2-heptene ( 7 ), always using both ethoxy- and methoxycarbonyl-nitrene ( 2a and 2b ). With 2a , (E)-azobenzene ( 14 ) was converted only to a single stereoisomer of 1-ethoxycarbonyl-2,3-diphenyl-azimine ( 17 ) and both stereoisomers of azo(p-toluene) ( 15 or 16 ) reacted to give the same stereoisomer of 1-ethoxycarbonyl-2,3-di(p-tolyl)-azimine ( 18 ).

Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-B]quinazolin-5-ones

Iodide-catalyzed ring expansion of 2-[(1-aziridinylcarbonyl)amino]benzoic acid methyl ester (2) gave 2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-one (3) in quantitative yield. Treatment of the dimethyl analog of 2 (9) with sodium iodide in acetone gave a mixture of the 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl- (10) and 2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-ones (11). However, rearrangement of 9 with sulfuric acid produced only 10. Synthesis of 11 by another route for comparison is described, and the known syntheses of 2,3-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[2,3-b]quinazolin-5-ones are reviewed.

syn-2,3-Disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiin rings: preparation from quinone ketals and 2-mercaptoethanols

A general method for the preparation of syn-2,3-disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiin rings from 2-mercaptoethanols and quinone ketals is presented. This ring system is produced by Michael addition of a 2-mercaptoethanol to a quinone ketal, followed by cyclization of the initial Michael adduct, and subsequent aromatization to afford a syn-2,3-disubstituted-1,4-benzoxathiin in fair to good chemical yield. Several chiral syn-2,3-disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiin rings were prepared with this method from enantioenriched 2-mercaptoethanols. No loss of enantiopurity was observed.

Synthesis of 2,3-tetramethylene-5-arenesulfonamidobenzofurans

The reaction of N-arenesulfonyl-1,4-benzoquinonimines with 1-morpholino(piperidino)-1-cyclohexene gives 2,3-dihydro-2-morpholino(piperidino)-2,3-tetramethylene-5-arene-sulfonamidobenzofurans. Refluxing of the latter in dilute hydrochloric acid gave 2,3-tetramethylene-5-arenesulfonamidobenzofurans, the structure of which was proved by hydrolysis to 2,3-tetramethylene-5-aminobenzofuran and conversion of it to the previously described 2,3-tetramethylene-5-hydroxybenzofuran.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 872–874, July, 1972.

Five-membered 2,3-dioxoheterocycles 3. The reaction of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with aliphatic and aromatic nitriles

On reaction of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with -aminoisobutyronitrile, o-aminobenzonitrile, and -anilinopropiononitrile, we obtained aroylpyruvic acid N-(1-methyl-1-cyanoethyl)-, N-(o-cyanophenyl)-, and N-phenyl-N-(cyanoethyl)-amides, respectively. On reaction of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with cyanoacetamide we obtained aroylacetic acid N-(cyanoacetyl)amides, while in the case of methyleneaminoacetonitrile and p-dimethylaminobenzonitrile we obtained (6-aryl-4-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1,3-oxazin-3-yl)acetonitriles and 2-(p-dimethylaminophenyl)-6-aryl-1,3-oxazine-4-ones, respectively.For Communication 2, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 740–743, June, 1987.

In the reaction of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydrofuran-2,3-diones with cyanoguanidine in 98% acetic acid 5-phenacylideneimidazolidine-2,4-diones were isolated, and in anhydrous acetic acid 2-imino-3-amidino-5-phenacylidene-4-oxazolidones were isolated.

Structural Determination of the [4+2] Dimer of 2,3-Dimethylene-2,3-Dihydrothiophene from Deuterium Labeling Study

2,3-Dimethylene-2,3-dihydrothiophene (1a), prepared by the flash vacuum pyrolysis of 3-methyl-2-thienylmethyl benzoate (7a), rapidly dimerizes to form a [4 + 2] dimer 6. The structure of the [4+2] dimer 6 was confirmed by comparing its NMR spectrum with that of the [4 + 2] dimers from 2-dideuteriomethylene-3-methylene-2,3-dihydrothiophene (1b) and 2-methylene-3-dideuteriomethylene-2,3-dihydrothiophene (1c).     

Nitration of 2,3′-bithienyl

The nitration of 2,3′-bithienyl ( 1 ) with fuming nitric acid in acetic anhydride at 0° gives a mixture of 3-nitro- ( 2 ), 2′ -nitro- ( 3 ) and 5-nitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 4 ) with relative percentages of 38.7%, 34.8% and 26.5%. When the nitration of 1 was carried out with fuming nitric acid in acetic acid at 20°, the same compounds 2, 3 and 4 were obtained, but with different relative percentages: 20.4%, 36.5% and 43.1% respectively. The results of the mononitration of 1 are compared with those obtained in other electrophilic substitutions and with the theoretical predictions. The further nitrations of 2, 3 and 4 with nitric acid in acetic anhydride at room temperature lead to the formation of five dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl isomers. Compound 2 gives a mixture of 2′,3-dinitro- ( 5 ) and 3,5′-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 6 ); compound 3 gives a mixture of 5 , 2′,5-dinitro- ( 7 ) and 2′,4-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 8 ); compound 4 gives 7 and 5,5′-dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl ( 9 ). The possible reasons of the formation of the various dinitro-2,3′-bithienyl isomers are discussed.     

Synthesis of 2,3-dihydrospiro[benzofuran-2,4′ -piperidines] and 2,3-dihydrospiro[benzofuran-2,3′-pyrrolidines]

The synthesis of 2,3-dihydrospiro[benzofuran-2,4′-piperidines] 3 and 2,3-dihydrospiro[benzofuran-2,3′]-pyrrolidine] 6 is described. The synthesis was achieved by a Grignard reaction of a 2-fluorobenzylhalide with an appropriate cycloazaalkyl ketone to yield the tertiary alcohols 1 and 4 . Subsequent intramolecular displacement of the aromatic fluoride by the derived alkoxides provided the novel system. Nitration of 1′-acetyl-2,3-dihydrospiro[benzofuran-2,4′-piperidine] 7 resulted in a 5-nitro derivative.

1-Unsubstituted 4,5-diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-2,3-pyrroledione interacts with ethoxycarbonyl-methylenetriphenylphosphorane regioselectively to give 4,5-diphenyl-Z-2-ethoxycarbonyl-methylene-2,3-dihydro-3-pyrrolone. The crystal and molecular structure of the latter was studied by X-ray analysis.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1556–1558, August, 1995.     

The investigation in 2,3'-biquinoline series 26.* Regioselective nitration of 1'-alkyl-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones and 1'-alkyl-1',2'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-2'-ones

The nitration of 1'-alkyl-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones and 1'-alkyl-1',2'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-2'-ones has been investigated. It was shown that the regioselectivity of nitration of the first depends on the acidity of the medium and the order of adding reactants. In strongly acidic medium 1'-alkyl-5,6'-dinitro-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones or mixtures of them with 1'-alkyl-5-nitro-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones are formed. In less acidic media 1'-alkyl-6'-nitro-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones and then 1'-alkyl-6,6'-dinitro-1',4'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-4'-ones are formed. Nitration of 1'-alkyl-1',2'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-2'-ones leads to 1'-alkyl-6'-nitro-1',2'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-2'-one and then 1'-alkyl-6,6',8'-trinitro-1',2'-dihydro-2,3'-biquinolin-2'-one. *For Communication 25 see [1].
