Synthesis of new tetrazole and triazole substituted pyroglutamic acid and proline derivatives

Racemic 4-(substituted-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl), 4-aryl and 4-(arylmethyl)tetrazolyl-pyroglutamic and proline derivatives were synthesized from dimethyl-2,4-dibromoglutaryle 1 in good yield using mild reaction conditions. The key step for the preparation of the triazole substituted molecule was the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of an acetylenic compound with an azido derivative. The tetrazole derivatives were prepared by the selective N2-alkylation of 5-substituted tetrazoles with 1.     

Synthesis of chiral nonracemic 4-trans-substituted pipecolic acid derivatives

The syntheses and resolutions of enantiomerically enriched 4-phenyl, 4-tert-butyl, and 4-isopropyl pipecolic acids are described. Optically active diastereomers were prepared by diastereomeric salt formation with the chiral base, l-tyrosine hydrazide, to provide Cbz or Boc protected 4-cis-d-pipecolic acid derivatives in >98% ee. Subsequent esterification followed by sodium methoxide catalyzed epimerization provided the isomeric 4-trans-l-pipecolic esters. In addition, an efficient synthesis of 4-phenyl-cis-pipecolic acid is described.     

Synthesis of 5-substituted pipecolic acid derivatives as new conformationally constrained ornithine and arginine analogues

Two, orthogonally protected, constrained analogues of arginine have been synthesised in a diastereodivergent manner. The key step involved an electrophilic or radical functionalisation of methyl N-Boc-5,6-dehydropipecolate.     

Synthesis of new organophosphorus‐substituted derivatives of ethanesulfonic acid

Nucleophilic addition of trimethylsilyl esters of hypophosphorus acid to trimethylsilyl ester and diethylamide of vinylsulfonic acid is proposed as convenient methods for the synthesis of new 2‐sulfonylethylphosphonites and their derivatives under mild conditions. Also the new functionalized derivatives of these phosphonites, including aminomethyl fragments as well as certain properties of these compounds as important precursors of new organophosphorus‐substituted derivatives of ethanesulfonic acid, are presented. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Attempted polymerization of substituted pipecolic acid NCA's: Dimerization and mechanism

Racemic and optically active N-carboxyanhydrides (NCA)s of 2-methyl- and cis-6-methylpipecolic acid, when subjected to polymerization conditions in solution or in bulk whether with “weak” or “strong” base initiators, resisted polymerization under all conditions tried. Instead, the NCA of 2-methylpipecolic acid gave the corresponding cyclic dipeptide and the NCA of cis-6-methylpipecolic acid formed the cyclic dipeptide derived from trans-6-methylpipecolic acid. The mechanism of dimerization of these NCA's was investigated. Evidence was provided for the proposed mechanism in which the active moiety is not a carbamate ion but an amino group. Methyl 2-methylpipecolate underwent an intermolecular S_N2-type reaction upon heating, yielding equimolar quantities of methyl N-methyl-2-methylpipecolate and 2-methylpipecolic acid.

Synthesis and antimicrobial of some new substituted tetrazolomethylbenzo[d]-[1,2,3]triazole derivatives using 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole as starting material

A series of tetrazolomethylbenzo[d][1,2,3]triazole derivatives (2–14) have been synthesized and evaluated as antimicrobial agents from 1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazole (1) as starting material. The reaction of benzotriazole 1 with chloroacetonitrile afforded 2-(1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]-triazol-1-yl)acetonitrile 2, which was reacted with sodium azide to give tetrazole derivative 3. Esterification of benzotriazole 1 with ethyl bromoacetate in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate afforded ester 4, which was treated with hydrazine hydrate to afford the corresponding hydrazide 5. Reaction of 3 with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl bromide afforded the nitro-glycoside derivative 6, which was deacetylated using methanolic ammonia to deprotected nitroglycoside 7. The hydrazide 5 was reacted with 4,5,6,7-tetrachlorophthalic anhydride or 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride in refluxing glacial acetic acid to give the corresponding imides 8 and 9, respectively. Also, the hydrazide 5 was reacted with carbon disulphide in ethanol to give potassium salt 10, which was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford aminotriazole derivative 11. The latter compound was reacted with carbon disulphide to afford thiadiazole derivative 12, which was treated with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl bromide to give the thioglycoside derivative 13. Deacetylation of the thioglycoside 13 using methanolic ammonia solution at room temperature afforded the deprotected thioglycoside 14. The antimicrobial screening of some synthesized compounds showed that many of these compounds have good antimicrobial activities comparable to streptomycin and fusidic acid as reference drugs.     

Asymmetric synthesis of pipecolic acid derivatives using the aza-Diels-Alder reaction

Imines of the type R---N=CHCO₂Et can be coerced into undergoing a (4+2) cycloaddition with substituted dienes if the reaction is carried out in DMF in the presence of both water and acid: these reactions show extremely high regio- and diastereoselectivity. Use of the 1-phenylethyl group as a chiral auxiliary leads to moderate asymmetric induction (typical d.e. ca. 70%); moreover, the diastereoisomers are surprisingly easy to separate, giving a short general route to optically pure substituted pipecolic acid derivatives.     

Complementary routes to both enantiomers of pipecolic acid and 4,5-dihydroxypipecolic acid derivatives

Complementary new routes to both enantiomers of N-protected pipecolic acid and the corresponding 4,5-dihydroxylated derivatives are developed, which involve stereo-divergent allylation of a chiral N-allylimine and ring-closing metathesis as key steps.

Synthesis and antimicrobial and pharmacological properties of new thiosemicarbazide and 1,2,4‐triazole derivatives

Reaction of 4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione with ethyl bromoacetate has led to the formation of ethyl [(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3‐yl)sulfanyl]acetate 1 , the structure of which was confirmed by X‐ray analysis. In the next reaction with 80% hydrazide hydrate, appropriate hydrazide 2 was obtained, which in reaction with isothiocyanates was converted to new acyl derivatives of thiosemicarbazides 2 , 3 , 3a , 3b , 3c , 3d , 3e , 3f , 3g , 3h . The cyclization of these compounds in alkaline media has led to formation of new derivatives of 5‐{[(4‐phenyl‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐yl)sulfanyl]methyl}‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3(2H)‐thiones 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e , 4f , 4g , 4j . The structure of the compounds was confirmed by elementary analysis and IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, and MS spectra. Compounds 2 , 3 , 3a , 3b , 3c , 3d , 3e , 3f , 3g , 3h and 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e , 4f , 4g were screened for their antimicrobial activities, and the influence of the compounds 4a , 4b , and 4e , 4f , 4g on the central nervous system of mice in behavioral tests was examined.

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of chalcone derivatives containing thioether triazole

The infection of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), Ralstonia solanacearum (Rs), and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Citri (Xac) has become a major problem in agricultural production. In this study, a series of novel chalcone derivatives containing thioether triazoles were designed and synthesized. The structures of the novel compounds were systematically characterized via ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, and HRMS. Moreover, the antibacterial activity results showed that E₁₀, E₁₁, E₁₅, and E₁₆ have adequate antibacterial activities against Xoo, Rs, and Xac. Among the different compounds, E₁₅ exhibited remarkable inhibitory effect against Xac with an EC₅₀ of 9.1 μg.mL^-1, which was better than that of commercial agent bismerthiazol (54.9 μg.mL^-1). In addition, the possible antibacterial mechanism of the target compound E₁₅ against Xac was studied via scanning electron microscopy (SEM).     

Synthesis, electropolymerization and electrochemical characterization of some new acrylate substituted thiophene derivatives

In this work, three new acrylate substituted thiophene monomers, (3-thienyl) methylacrylate, 6-(3-thienyl)methoxy-hexylacrylate and 11-(3-thienyl)methoxy-undecylacrylate were synthesized and electropolymerized. Electrochemical polymerisation by a potential step technique leads to the formation of an electroactive film on a Pt electrode in each case. The polymerization involves evidently only the thiophene ring, as no sign of polyacrylate formation could be detected. The oxidation of each polymer was studied by in situ external reflectance FTIR spectroscopy, which showed several bands assigned to (bi)polaron type charge carriers in the region 1500–1000 cm⁻¹. The evolution of the conductivity was studied in situ by the contact electric resistance technique. The conductivity of poly(3-thienyl methacrylate) was found to be higher in aqueous solutions than in acetonitrile. The surface of poly((3-thienyl) methacrylate) was found to have a granular structure observed for many polythiophenes, as studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM).     

Synthesis of new dendrimers—trimesic acid derivatives

The efficient synthesis of new dendrimeric polyesters up to generation 3 that consist of 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid building blocks with potential applications in drug delivery is described. The dendrimers possess hydroxy or allyl functional groups on the surface and were prepared through a divergent approach using readily available 2-(hydroxymethyl)-2-ethylpropan-1,3-diol and 1,3,5-benzenetrimethanol as central cores, with 3,5-bis[(allyloxy)methyl]benzoic acid being an essential unit of the dendrimer. The latter compound was synthesized, in high yield, from 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid, applying selective hydrolysis of the corresponding triester as the key step.
