Synthesis of 2-(2-methoxyethyl)- and 2-(2-thiomethoxyethyl)-aniline and related compounds

Summary 2-(2-Nitrophenyl)-ethanol (2) was methylated with dimethyl sulfate to give 2-(2-methoxyethyl)-1-nitrobenzene (3a) which then was reduced with hydrazine hydrate in the presence ofRaney nickel to 2-(2-methoxyethyl)-aniline (1a). Compound1a can be transformed into the N-monosilylated derivative4 by lithiation withn-butyllithium and subsequent reaction with chlorotrimethylsilane. Reaction of2 withp-toluenesulfonyl chloride yields 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-ethylp-toluenesulfonate (5), which reacts with sodium thiomethoxide to give 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-ethylp-toluenesulfonate (5), which reacts with sodium thiomethoxide to give 2-(2-thiomethoxyethyl)-1-nitrobenzene (3b).3b was reduced with hydrazine hydrate in the presence ofRaney nickel to yield 2-(2-thiomethoxyethyl)-aniline (1b). Ethyl (2-nitrophenyl)-acetate (6) could be dimethylated with methyl iodide in the presence of potassiumtert-butoxide and 18-crown-6 to give ethyl 2-methyl-2-(2-nitrophenyl)-propionate (7). Reduction of7 with lithium borohydride yields 2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-1H-indole (9) and 2-[(1-hydroxy-2-methyl)-2-propyl]-aniline (10).

Reactions of allyl and 2-(vinyloxy)ethyl isothiocyanates with alyylmagnesium bromide (THF-Et₂O, 20-30°C, 1-3 h) after hydrolysis or alkylation of adducts afforded respectively N-allyl- and N-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]-3-butenethioamides or N-allyl- and N-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]-1-(methylmercapto)-3-buten-1-imines. The reaction carried out in ethyl ether yielded instead of Nt-allyl-3-butenethioamide its isomer N-allyl-2-butenethioamide that cleanly isomerized in the system KOH-DMSOH₂O into N-(1-propenyl)-2-butenethioamide. N-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]-3-butenethioamide suffers a prototropic rearrangement into N-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]-2-butenethioamide only in the system     

Synthesis of (E)- and (Z)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles

Abstract  

An efficient synthesis method for the preparation of a series of new (Z)- and (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles was developed. The reaction of (Z)- and (E)-3-styrylchromones with hydrazine hydrate afforded the corresponding (Z)- and (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-styrylpyrazoles, except for nitro derivatives, where both (Z)- and (E)-4′-nitro-3-styrylchromones afforded (E)-3(5)-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-(4-nitrostyryl)pyrazoles. The reaction mechanism for these transformations is discussed and the stereochemistries of all products were established by NMR experiments.     

Preparation and Structure of (E)-1-(3′-Hydroxy-2-Furanyl)-3-(3″-Hydroxy-4″-Methoxyphenyl)-2-Propen-1-One

Abstract

A facile procedure is presented for the synthesis of (E)-1-(3′-hydroxy-2′-furanyl)-3-(3″-hydroxy-4″-methoxyphenyl)-2- propen-1-one (6). Galactosylisomaltol (1) was condensed with isovanillin (2) under strong alkaline conditions at 25 [ddot]C to form (E)-1-(3′-O-β-D-galactopyranosyloxy-2′-furanyl)-3-(3″- hydroxy-4″-methoxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one (4). (E)-1-(3′-hydroxy-2′-furanyl)-3-(3″-hydroxy-4″-methoxyphenyl)-2-propen-1-one (6) was obtained by acid hydrolysis of 4 in a 53.9% yield. This hetero-cyclic 2-propen-1-one was characterized on the basis of spectral data (IR and ¹H NMR), physicochemical properties, and conversion to a mono-O-acetyl derivative.

Reaction of 3-(Dimethylamino)-2H-azirines with 1,3-Oxazolidine-2-thione to 3-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-2- thiohydantoins The reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-2H-azirines 1 and 1,3-oxazolidine-2-thione ( 6 ), in MeCN at room temperature, yields, after hydrolytic workup, 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-thiohydantoins 7 (Scheme 2). In the case of the spirocyclic 1c , crystallization of the crude reaction mixture leads to spiro [cyclopentane-1, 7′(7′aH)-imidazo [4, 3-b] oxazole] -5′-thione 8c . The mechanism is discussed.     

Synthesis and characterization of novel 2-(1-benzyl-3-[4-fluorophenyl]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-7-fluoro-4H-chromen-4-one derivatives

Novel 1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes 3a to 3e were synthesized via Vilsmeier-Haack reaction of the appropriate 1-benzyl-2-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)ethylidene)hydrazines, derived from 4-fluoroacetophenone 1 with substituted 2-benzylhydrazines 2a to 2e . The base catalyzed condensation of 1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehydes 3a to 3e with 1-(4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone 4 gave (E)-3-(1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-1-(4-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-ones 5a to 5e . On cyclization with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/I₂, compounds 5a to 5e gave 2-(1-benzyl-3-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-7-fluoro-4H-chromen-4-ones 6a to 6e . Structures of all novel compounds were confirmed by infrared (IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³C NMR), and mass spectral data. All the synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities.     

N- And S-Alkylation of 3-(1-Aadamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol and 2-(1-Adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol

ABSTRACT

-The reaction of 3-(1-adamantyl)-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol 1 with certain 2-aminoethyl chlorides in alkaline medium yielded a separable mixture of the S-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 2 and the N-(2-aminoethyl) derivatives 3. Meanwhile, alkylation of 2-(1-adamantyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol 4 with 2-aminoethyl chlorides under the same conditions yielded only the S-alkyl derivatives 5. Interaction of 4 with primary or secondary amines and formaldehyde solution yielded the corresponding N-aminomethyl derivatives in high yields.     

Einfache Umwandlung von(–)-(R)-3-Hydroxybuttersäure in das (+)-(S)-Enantiomere und dessen Lacton(‒)-(S)-4-Methyloxetan-2-on

Simple Conversion of (R)-3-Hydroxybutanoic Acid to the (S)-Enantiomer and its Lactone (–)-(S)-4-Methylixetan-2-one Condensation of ( R )-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (1) with ethyl orthoacetate gives a 2-ethoxy-substituted (1,3)dioxanone 2 which is thermally labile: at ca. 100°, two competing processes commence, one leading to ethyl ( R )-3-acetoxybutanoate ( 3 ), the other one - with complete inversion of configuration - to the ( S )-4-methylixetan-2-one ( 4 ) and ethyl acetate. These can be readily separated by fractional distillation. Thus, enantiomerically pure ( S )-3-hydroxybutanoic acid (ent- 1 ) and l-2-alkyl-3-hydroxybutanoic-acid derivatives (such as 6 and 8 ) become available from the biopolymer PHB, the precursor to the acid 1 .     

Synthese von 3-(2-Carboxy-4-Pyridyl)- und 3-(6-Carboxy-3-pyridyl)-DL-alanin

Synthesis of 3-(2-Carboxy-4-pyridyl)-and 3-(6-Carboxy-3-pyridyl)-DL-alanine As starting materials for potential photochemical approaches to betalaines C(R = COOH) and to muscaflavine F(R = COOH), β-(2-carboxy-4-pyridyl)- and β-(6(carboxy-3-pyridyl))-DL-alanine ( A and D with R = COOH or 4 and 11 ), respectively, were prepared (Scheme 1). The synthesis of 4 (= A, R = COOH) started with the 2-[(4-pyridyl)methyl]malonate 1 and proceeded via the N-oxide 2 , cyanation and hydrolysis (Scheme 2). Amino acid 11 was obtained from (3-pyridyl)methyl-bromide ( 6 ) via the malonate 7 by an analogous sequence of reactions (Scheme 3).     

1-( p -Fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethanol and 1-( p -fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethene obtained from the condensation reaction of 2-picoline and p -fluorophenylaldehyde under catalyst-and solvent-free conditions

The novel intermediate 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethanol or 2-[2′-(1-hydroxy-1-(p-fluorophenyl)ethyl]pyridine and the corresponding novel dehydration compound 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethene or 2-[p-fluorophenylvinyl]pyridine were obtained from the condensation reaction of p-fluorophenylaldehyde and 2-picoline under catalyst-and solvent-free conditions. The intermediate 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethanol was obtained at 42 h reaction time and temperature of 120°C, respectively. ¹H-NMR, IR spectroscopic data of the 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethanol clearly showed the presence of the-CH₂-CHOH-group. The compound was obtained as a white powder with m.p. 121–122°C and a yield of 8%. For 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethene, the reaction conditions were similar, but the reaction temperature was increased to yield the double bond in the 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethene. At the reaction temperature of 140°C, the compound was a slightly brown powder with a m.p. of 78°C and yield of 18%. ¹H-NMR, IR spectroscopic data for the 1-(p-fluorophenyl)-2-(2′-pyridyl)ethene showed the presence of a double bond in trans configuration (-CH=CH-), characteristic of a styrylpyridine.     

Some reactions of 2-(4-substitutedphenyl)-2-(N-methyl-N-4-substitutedbenzamido) acetic acids

In situ generated 2,4-diaryl substituted münchnones from 2-(4-substitutedphenyl)-2-(N-methyl-N-4-substitutedbenzamido)acetic acids react with acetic anhydride in the presence of 2-nitromethylene thiazolidine, which is most likely acting as a base, and unexpectedly undergo a Dakin–West type reaction and a concurrent autoxidation reaction leading to the formation of (E)-1-(N,4-dimethylbenzamido)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)prop-1-en-2-yl acetate, 4-substitutedphenyl-N-methyl-N-(4-substitutedbenzoyl) benzamides and p-substituted benzoic acids. In addition, a novel and efficient access to N-acyl urea derivatives is described by the reaction between 2-(4-substitutedphenyl)-2-(N-methyl-N-4-substitutedbenzamido)acetic acids and cyclohexyl, isopropyl carbodiimides in the presence of a base. The structures of all new products were identified on the basis of NMR and IR spectra, along with X-ray diffraction data and HRMS measurements.     

The base-promoted dehydration of rac.-trans-tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-4-[(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-thiazepin-5(2H)-one

The base-catalyzed alkylation of rac.-trans-tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-thiazepin-5(2H)-one ( 1 ) with dimethylaminoethyl chloride in dimethyl sulfoxide provided predominantly rac.-trans-tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-4-[(2-dimethylamino)ethyl]-7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-thiazepin-5(2H)-one ( 2 ) and in addition, 2,3-dihydro-4-[2-(dimethylamino)-ethyl]-7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-thiazepin-5(4H)-one ( 3 ). A plausible mechanism is postulated for the dehydration of the rac.-trans-amide 2 .     

New synthesis of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiazoles from 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole

Treatment of 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole with potassium tert-butoxide generated potassium 2-(1-adamantyl)ethynethiolate which reacted with aromatic carboxylic acid chlorides to give unstable S-[2-(1-adamantyl)ethynyl] arenecarbothioates whose acid hydrolysis afforded S-[2-(1-adamantyl)-2-oxoethyl] arenecarbothioates. The latter reacted with ammonium acetate in acetic acid yielding 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiadiazoles. Reactions of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)-1,3-thiadiazole with cyclic secondary amines gave the corresponding products of nucleophilic replacement of the chlorine atom in the aromatic ring.     

Synthesis of 2-(p-R-benzoylmethylene)-3-(p-R-phenyl)-1H-quinoxalines

The reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzenes with substituted 1,2-dibenzoyl-1,2-dibromoethanes constitutes a convenient synthetic route to the hitherto 2-(p-R-benzoylmethylene)-3-(p-R-phenyl)-1H-quinoxalines. Structures of all products were elucidated by ir, ¹H and ¹³C-nmr, mass spectra data. X-Ray crystallography data confirm assigned structures.     

Synthesis and reactions of 1-[1-oxido-2-(3,4)-pyridinyl]-2-methyloxiranes with nitrogen nucleophiles

Reaction of 2(3,4)-pyridinecarboxaldehydes (5) with ethylidenetriphenylphosphorane afford a mixture of stereoisomers Z-( 6 ) and E-1-[2(3,4)-pyridinyl]-1-propenes ( 7 ). m-Chloroperbenzoic acid oxidation of 6 and 7 yields a 60:40 mixture of Z-( 8 ) and E-1-[1-oxido-2(3,4)-pyridinyl]-2-methyloxiranes ( 9 ). The regiospecific reaction of Z-isomers 8a-c with cyclic amines as piperidine give rise to threo-1-hydroxy-1-[1-oxido-2(3,4)-pyridinyl]-2-(1-piperidino)propanes ( 10 ) while the E-isomer 9a yields erythro- 11 . On tho other hand, the E-isomers 9b and 9c having 1-oxido-3(4)-pyridinyl substituents afford erythro- 12 resulting from attack by piperidine at C-1 of the oxirane. Reductive deoxygenation using 10% palladium on charcoal and hydrogen gas effectively removed the N-oxide substituent from the threo- 10 and erythro- 11 β-aminoalcohols. Dilute solution ir spectroscopy indicated the existance of strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding in the β-aminoalcohols 10 and 11 . The assignment of relative configuration of diastereoisomers 10 and 11 was based on the magnitude of the vicinal coupling constant J where J threo is greater than J erythro.

The structure of all products was corroborated by ir, ¹H-nmr, ¹³C-nmr and ms.
