Sulfur dioxide mediated one-pot, three- and four-component syntheses of polyfunctional sulfonamides and sulfonic esters: study of the stereoselectivity of the ene reaction of sulfur dioxide

The ene reaction of sulfur dioxide with enoxysilanes or with allylsilanes generates silyl sulfinates that can be brominated (Br(2) or NBS) or chlorinated (NCS or Cl(2)) to produce the corresponding sulfonyl halides. They react with primary and secondary amines or alcohols to give the corresponding sulfonamides and sulfonic esters, respectively. The hetero-Diels-Alder addition of sulfur dioxide to 1-oxy- or 1,3-dioxy-1,3-dienes generates zwitterions that add to enoxysilanes or allylsilanes giving silyl sulfinates that can be converted in situ into polyfunctional sulfonamides or sulfonic esters. This realizes quick access to libraries of complicated sulfonamides and sulfonic esters applying one-pot, three- and four-component methods.     

The synthesis of naphthothiopyranopyranones and naphthothiopyranopyranthiones

The synthesis of fused tetracyclic naphthothiopyranopyranones from dihydronaphthothiopyranones I or II has been studied. Compounds I or II have been cyclised in good yield to the corresponding dioxaborin difluoride complexes III, IV, XIII and XIV by treatment with acetic or propionic anhydride and boron trifluoride etherate. These complexes and the Vilsmeier reagent reacted to produce fused tetracyclic 3-substituted naphthothiopyranopyranones V, VI, XV or XVI . The reaction of dioxaborin difluoride complexes III or IV with dimethylthioformamide (DMTF) afforded dimethylaminovinyldioxaborin difluoride complexes IX or X . Treatment of IX or X with hydrochloric acid solution gave naphthothiopyranopyranones VII or VIII . The reaction of VII, VIII, XV or XVI with DMTF/acetic anhydride yielded new products, which was identified as naphthothiopyranopyranthions XI, XII, XVII or XVIII .     

Organic-inorganic nanohybrids through the direct tailoring of semiconductor nanocrystals with conjugated polymers

Two main synthetic strategies are used to prepare conjugated oligomer- or polymer-nanocrystal nanohybrids. In the first strategy ligand exchange is invoked to either replace with a bifunctional ligand, which contains a second functional group for coupling with conjugated oligomers or polymers (COs or CPs), or exchange for the functionalized COs or CPs in a "grafting-onto" process. Alternatively, in the second strategy the nanocrystal (NC) is passivated with functional ligands from which COs or CPs are directly grown in the absence of ligand exchange. The well-defined interface between the COs or CPs and NCs facilitates an efficient charge-transfer between them.     

STUDIES ON POLYVINYL ALCOHOL CARRIERS Ⅲ. ACTIVE AMIDES AND ESTERS DERIVED FROM POLYVINYL ALCOHOL AND THEIR APPLICATION IN AFFINITY CHROMATOGRAPHY

Polyvinyl alcohol carriers bearing active amide and active ester groups were prepared by acetaliza-tion of granular macro-reticular water-insolub1e PVA with glyoxylic acid or p-formylbenzoic acidand further activation reaction with benzotriazole or N-hydroxysuccinimide using DCCI as con-densation agent. The active amides or active esters obtained were easy to react with amines suchas n-butylamine or proteins under mild condition. Ovomucoid, an inhibitor of trypsin was immo-bilized on the above-obtained reactive PVA carrier to give effective affinity adsorbent for the separa-tion or purification of trypsin.     

Lewis acid-promoted deoxygenative di[beta,beta-bis(ethylthio)]vinylation of aldehydes with trimethylsilylketene bis(ethylthio)acetal

Silylketene dithioacetal 1 reacted with aldehydes 2a-o, 14, or cinnamaldehyde (11) in the presence of Lewis acid to give deoxygenative divinylation products, 3-substituted 1,4-pentadienes 3a-o, 15, or 5-phenyl-1,3,6-heptatriene 13b, in good to moderate yields. Similar reaction with 2-aminobenzaldehyde (16) or salicylaldehyde (17) produced quinoline 19 or chroman 20 in 40-58% yield. Treatment of 1 with alpha-diketones 22a-c or alpha-ketoester 24 led to tetrasubstituted furans 23a-c or allylic alcohol 25, respectively, in rather low yields. The formation mechanisms of these products are discussed.     

Selective mono,bis, and trisiminoformylation of 2,4,6-trialkyl-1,3,5-triazines - unusual enol acylenamine tautomerism of hydroxyalkenyl-1,3,5-triazines

2,4,6-Trialkyl-1,3,5-triazines 1 can selectively be mono, bis or trisiminoformylated by reaction with trismorpholinomethane 2 or chloromethylene iminium salts 3 (Vilsmeier reagents), with each alkyl substituent reacting with only one molecule of the electrophile. The resulting aminoalkenyltriazines 4, 5 and 6 are partially or fully hydrolysed to corresponding formylation products. The latter exist either in enol or in unusual acylenamine tautomeric structures 10, 12 , and 13 , depending on the number of enamine or enol units found in the molecule. Reaction of triazines 1 with chlorobenzylidene iminium salts 16 gives monoiminobenzoylation to enaminotriazines 17 .     

O—Maltosylation of Heterocyclic Ketene Aminals

The stereoselective synthesis of O-maltosides by reacting benzoyl-substituted heterocyclic ketene aminals 1 or 2 with acetylated maltosyl bromide 3 was investigated.Compounds 1 or 2 reacted with 3 in the presence of mercuric cyanide to give O-maltosides 4 or 5 with E-configuration.While 1 reacted with 3 in the presence of calcium hydride to give O-maltosides 6 with Zconfiguration.     

Studies on the regio- and stereoselectivity of halohydroxylation of 1,2-allenyl sulfides or selenides

It was observed that the halohydroxylation of 1,2-allenyl sulfides or selenides with Br2 (CuBr2 or NBS) or I2 and water demonstrated a fairly good regioselectivity (i.e., the C=C bond that is remote from the S or Se atom was halohydroxylated with the halogen atom connecting to the middle carbon atom and the hydroxyl group connecting to the non-S terminal carbon or Se-substituted terminal carbon atom of the allene moiety), leading to the synthesis of synthetically important 3-organosulfur or seleno-2-haloallylic alcohols. The stereoselectivity depends on the nature of X+ and S or Se, showing a Z-selectivity with the matched Lewis acid-base pair.     

Synthesis, Reactions, and Anti-inflammatory Activity of Heterocyclic Systems Fused to a Thiophene Moiety Using Citrazinic Acid As Synthon

Summary. A series of pyridines, pyrimidinones, and oxazinones were synthesized as anti-inflammatory agents using citrazinic acid (2,6-dihydroxyisonicotinic acid) as a starting material. Acryloyl pyridine was treated with cyanothioacetamide to give cyano pyridine-thione, which was reacted with ethyl chloroacetate to yield the corresponding amino ester. The ester was hydrolysed to the sodium salt, which was treated with acetic anhydride to afford 2-methyloxazinone, which was treated with ammonium acetate to afford 2-methylpyrimidinone followed by methylation with methyl iodide to yield 2,3-dimethylpyrimidinone. In addition, the oxazinone derivative was reacted with aniline or hydrazine hydrate to give 3-phenyl- or 3-aminopyrimidinones. The latter reacted with thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde or phenylisothiocyanate to afford Schiff’s bases or thiosemicarbazides. 3-Aminopyrimidinone was treated with phthalic anhydride or 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid dianhydride or toluene-3,5-diisocyanate to afford the corresponding imide, bis-imide, and bis-semicarbazide derivatives. The pharmacological screening showed that many of these compounds have good anti-inflammatory activity comparable to Prednisolone^? as reference drug.     

A Novel One-Pot Synthesis of Polyfunctionally Substituted Thiopyrano(2,3- b )pyridine and Pyrido(2,3- b )pyridine Derivatives under Solid-Liquid Phase-Transfer Catalysis

Ketoketene thioacetals or cyanoketene thioacetals which were formed by treatment of a variety of active methylenes containing f -keto or f -cyano group with CS 2 or with PhNCS were allowed to react with 2-aminoprop-1-ene-1,1,3-tricarbonitrile under PTC conditions to afford thiopyrano(2,3- b )pyridine 3a-12a or pyrido(2,3- b )pyridine 3b-12b derivatives.     

Infrared determination of calcium or lithium nitrate in acetone solution determination of calcium or lithium in the presence of strontium or barium

A method is proposed for the infrared determination of calcium or lithium in the presence of strontium or barium. A mixture of the nitrates is treated with acetone which dissolves only the calcium or lithium nitrate. The strontium or barium nitrate is filtered off. The nitrate is evaporated to about 2 ml with a stream of dry air and then diluted to 5 ml with acetone. The infrared spectrum is scanned from 860 to 800 cm(-1) and the nitrate peak at 824 cm(-1) for calcium and 827 cm(-1) for lithium is measured. The recommended range is 1-80 mg of calcium or lithium nitrate in the presence of up to about 200 mg of strontium or barium nitrate.     

Structure of the reaction products from carbazole or N-methylcarbazole and formaldehyde

Formaldehyde reacts with carbazole or N-methylcarbazole in the presence of concentrated hydrochloric acid to give dimers, and also more highly polymerized products (crosslinked or linear respectively with three or more carbazole (or N-methylcarbazole) units per molecule.     

Synthesis of alpha-trifluoromethyl-beta-lactams and esters of beta-amino acids via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones to fluoroalkenes

Nitrones derived from aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes or ketones react with hexafluoropropene (HFP) or 2H-pentafluoropropene (PFP) to give the respective fluorinated isoxazolidine derivatives in good yields with complete regioselectivity and moderate diastereoselectivity. Catalytic hydrogenolysis of the N-O bond under ambient pressure and temperature leads to fluorides of beta-amino acids that undergo cyclization to alpha-trifluoromethylated beta-lactams or, under acidic conditions, form esters of alpha-trifluoromethylated beta-amino acids.     

Synthesis and cytotoxicity of 9-(2-deoxy-2-alkyldithio-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)purine nucleosides which are stable precursors to potential mechanistic probes of ribonucleotide reductases

A series of 2[prime or minute]-thionucleosides, as potential inhibitors of ribonucleotide reductases, has been synthesized. Treatment of the 3[prime or minute],5[prime or minute]-O-TPDS-2[prime or minute]-O-(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)adenosine with potassium thioacetate gave the arabino epimer of 2[prime or minute]-S-acetyl-2[prime or minute]-thioadenosine which was deacetylated to give 9-(3,5-O-TPDS-2-thio-[small beta]-d-arabinofuranosyl)adenine in high yield. Treatment of the latter with diethyl azodicarboxylate-C(3)H(7)SH-THF gave 2[prime or minute]-propyl disulfide which was desilylated to give 9-(2-deoxy-2-propyldithio-[small beta]-d-arabinofuranosyl)adenine. Subsequent tosylation (O5[prime or minute]) and displacement of the tosylate with pyrophosphate afforded the 5[prime or minute]-O-diphosphate in a stable form as propyl mixed-disulfide, which upon treatment with dithiothreitol releases 9-(2-thio-[small beta]-d-arabinofuranosyl)adenine 5[prime or minute]-diphosphate. The arabino 2[prime or minute]-mercapto group might interact with the crucial thiyl radical at cysteine 439 leading to the inhibition of ribonucleotide reductases via formation of a Cys439-2[prime or minute]-mercapto disulfide bridge. The 2,6-diamino-, 2-amino-6-chloro- and 2-amino-6-methoxypurine ribosides were also converted to the corresponding 2[prime or minute]-deoxy-2[prime or minute]-propyldithio-[small beta]-d-arabinofuranosyl nucleosides, which might serve as convenient precursors to the arabino epimer of 2[prime or minute]-thioguanosine. Analogously, 2[prime or minute]-deoxy-2[prime or minute]-propyldithioadenosine was prepared from 9-([small beta]-d-arabinofuranosyl)adenine. The nucleoside disulfides show modest cytotoxicity in a panel of human tumor cell lines.

Synthesis and reactions of 2H-Benzothieno[3,2-d][1,3]oxazine-2,4(1H)-dione

The title compound 5 is synthesized by the reaction of the potassium salt of 3-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid with phosgene. Compound 5 is readily alkylated to give 6 with methyl iodide, benzyl bromide, or propargyl bromide in the presence of sodium hydride. Reaction of 5 and 6 with nucleophiles follows specifically different pathways. Compound 5 is readily ionized to the isocycanate species 13 and subsequently reacts with methanol or methylamine to produce exclusively the carbamate 7 or ureido acid 9 . The N-substituted derivative 6 , in analogous reactions with methanol or methylamine, produce exclusively the amino ester 8 or the amino amide 10 . The N-benzyl derivative 6b reacts with the cyclic S-methylthiopseudourea 11 to give the tetracycle 12 , a new ring system.     

SYNTHESIS OF BETULIN DERIVATIVES WITH SOLID SUPPORTED REAGENTS

Betulin–allobetulin transformation is effected with ferric nitrate or ferric chloride adsorbed onto silica gel or alumina, in excellent yields. In addition, allobetulin can be converted to allobetulone with silica adsorbed ferric nitrate or to 19β,28- epoxy-A-neo-18α-olean-3(5)-ene and 19β,28-epoxy-A-neo-5β-methyl-25-nor-18α-olean-9-ene with silica or alumina adsorbed ferric chloride.     

Architecturally diverse heterocycle formation by N-acyliminium ion initiated cyclization

Enaminoesters containing a tethered indole or aryl moiety on the amine react with substituted maleic anhydrides or acryloyl chlorides to provide pyrrolinone or dihydropyridone products, respectively. The indole-tethered dihydropyridones can be induced to undergo a one-pot cyclization whereas, the indole-tethered pyrrolinone intermediates are readily cyclized with HCl. The aryl-tethered pyrrolinones or dihydropyridones can be isolated and subsequently induced to cyclize with triflic acid. This methodology culminates in the synthesis of erythrane-like and other natural products that are readily amenable to combinatorial library production.     

Synthesis and reactions of pyrido[3,2,1‐jk]carbazole‐4,6‐diones

Pyrido[3,2,1‐jk]carbazoles 1 , synthesized from carbazoles and alkyl‐ or arylmalonates, gave regioselective electrophilic substitution reactions at position 5 such as chlorination to 5‐chloro derivatives 2 , nitration to 5‐nitro compounds 3 , or hydroxylation to 5‐hydroxy derivatives 4 . 5‐Hydroxy compounds 4 gave on treatment with strong bases ring contraction to 5 , 6 or the ring opening product 7 . Exchange of the chloro group in 2 with azide or amines gave the corresponding azides 8 and the 5‐amino derivatives 9 and 10 . Alkylation of 1 with benzyl chloride or allyl bromide resulted in the formation of 5‐C‐alkylated products 11 together with 4‐alkyloxy derivatives 12 . J. Heterocyclic Chem., 48, 1039 (2011).     

Porphyrins

Treatment of porphyrins or their copper complexes containing meso-dimethylaminomethyl or meso-dimethylformaldimino groups with lithium borohydride or diborane leads to the corresponding aminoborane derivatives. The reaction of the aminoboranes with trifluoroacetic acid was investigated, and trifluoroacetoxyborane complexes were isolated.
