Saturated heterocycles. 254 . synthesis and stereochemistry of saturated or partially saturated pyridazino-[6,1-b]- and phthalazino[1,2-b]quinazolinones

By the reaction of anthranilic hydrazide 1 with cis-2-(p-methylbenzoyl)-1-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid 2a or diendo-3-(p-methylbenzoyl)bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2-carboxylic acid 2b , fused tetra- and pentacyclic ring systems 3a, b were prepared, trans-2-Amino-1-cyclohexanecar-bohydrazide 4b was reacted with 3-(p-chlorobenzoyl)propionic acid 5 to yield the pyridazino[6,1-b]quinazolinone 6 . From the reaction of cis-2-amino-1-cyclohexanecarbohydrazide 4a with 2a , three isomeric partially saturated 8H-phthalazino[1,2-b]quinazolin-8-ones 7a-c were formed. The reaction of diexo-2-aminobicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-3-carbohydrazide 4c and 2a furnished the pentacyclic derivatives 8 and 9 containing a 3-aryl-4,5-dihydropyridazine or 3-arylhexahydropyridazine ring C with cis annelated C/D rings. The formation of 8 and 9 involving different ring systems can be rationalized by two reaction pathways: (i) in the bislactam 9 the carboxyl group acylates the hydrazide, while (ii) in 8 it forms a pyridazine ring with the cyclic amino group by cyclocondensation. The structures of the products were elucidated by ¹H and ¹³C nmr methods, including DEPT, DNOE and 2D-HSC measurements.     

LC Enantioseparation of β-Lactam and β-Amino Acid Stereoisomers and a Comparison of Macrocyclic Glycopeptide- and β-Cyclodextrin-Based Columns

Direct reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic methods were developed for the separation of the enantiomers of tricyclic β-lactams, cis-3,4-benzo-6-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-7-one, cis-4,5-benzo-7-azabicyclo[4.2.0]-octan-8-one, cis-5,6-benzo-8-azabicyclo[5.2.0]nonan-9-one and new bicyclic β-amino acids, the six- and seven-membered homologues of cis-1-amino-4,5-benzocyclopentane-2-carboxylic acid (benzocispentacin), cis-1-amino-5,6-benzocyclohexane-2-carboxylic acid and cis-1-amino-6,7-benzocycloheptane-2-carboxylic acid. The direct separations of the analytes were performed on chiral stationary phase (CSP) columns containing the macrocyclic glycopeptide antibiotic teicoplanin (Chirobiotic T), teicoplanin aglycone (Chirobiotic TAG), vancomycin (Chirobiotic V), vancomycin aglycone (Chirobiotic VAG), ristocetin A (Chirobiotic R) or a new dimethylphenyl carbamate-derivatized β-cyclodextrin-based Cyclobond DMP. The results achieved with the different methods were compared in systematic chromatographic examinations. The effects of an organic modifier and of the mobile phase composition on the separation and the separation efficiency of different columns were investigated. The difference in enantioselective free energy between the aglycone CSP and the teicoplanin CSP for these β-lactams and β-amino acids ranged between 0.3 and −1.1 kJmol⁻¹. Better enantioseparations were attained in most cases on the aglycone CSP.

Stereoselective reductive tetraallylation of pyridinecarboxylic acids with triallylborane

Reductive tetraallylation of pyridine-3-and pyridine-4-carboxylic acids with triallylborane in the presence of propan-2-ol proceeded stereoselectively to yieldtrans-2,6-diallyl-3- andtrans-2,6-diallyl-4-(1-allyl-1-hydroxybut-3-en-1-yl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines, respectively. Under the same conditions, the reaction with pyridine-2-carboxylic acid gave a mixture oftrans- andcis-2,6-diallyl-2-(1-allyl-1-hydroxybut-3-en-1-yl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridines in a ratio of 57:43. When 2,6-diphenylpyridine-4-carboxylic acid reacted with triallylborane, only the carboxylic group underwent reductive diallylation. When heated with triallylborane ino-xylene (130–133°C, 7 h),trans-2,6-diallyl-4-(1-allyl-1-hydroxybut-3-en-1-yl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine was converted to the correspondingcis-isomer. The stereochemistry oftrans-2,6-diallyl-3-(1-allyl-1-hydroxybut-3-en-1-yl)-1,2,5,6,-tetrahydropyridine was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.

RP-LC Determination of the cis-Isomer of Glimepiride in a Bulk Drug Substance

A rapid reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic procedure is developed and validated for the resolution of the cis-isomer of 1-[[p-[2-(3-ethyl-4-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyrroline-1-carboxamido) ethyl] phenyl] sulfonyl]-3-(trans-4-methylcyclohexyl) urea, a dopamine agonist in bulk drugs. The cis-isomer and glimepiride were baseline resolved on a Waters Symmetry column (50 × 4.6 mm, 3.5 μm) using a mobile phase system containing water: tetrahydrofuran (75:25; v/v. The chromatographic resolutions between cis-isomer and glimepiride were found to be greater than two. The developed method was extensively validated and proved to be robust. The limit of detection and the limit of quantification of cis-isomer were 500 and 1,500 ng mL⁻¹, respectively, for 10 μL injection volume. The percentage recovery of the cis-isomer ranged from 97.3 to 102.0 in bulk drug samples of glimepiride. Glimepiride sample solution and mobile phase were found to be stable for at least 48 h. The proposed method was found to be suitable and accurate for the quantitative determination of the cis-isomer in bulk drugs.     

Stereoselective synthesis of (±)-indolizidines 167B and 209D and theirtrans-isomers based on the reductive allylboration of pyridine

A general method for the synthesis of 5-substituted indolizidines based on intramolecular cyclization oftrans- andcis-2-allyl-6-R-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines, obtained from pyridine and triallylborane, has been elaborated. The closure of the five-membered ring is carried out by hydroboration-oxidation followed by cyclization of the resulting δ-amino alcohols in the presence of the Ph₃P−CBr₄−Et₃N system. (Pr₂BH)₂ and Pr₃B are used as the hydroborating reagents, and H₂O₂ in an acid medium is used for the oxidation of 2-[3-(dipropylboryl]-Δ²-piperideines formed. This method has been used for the synthesis of two natural alkaloids: indolizidine 209D (cis-5-hexylindolizidine) and itstrans-isomer were prepared fromcis- andtrans-2-allyl-6-hexyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropiridine, respectively; indolizidine 167B andtrans-5-propylindolizidine were synthesized fromcis- andtrans-2,6-diallyl-1,2,3,6-tetra-hydropyridine, respectively.

Chemoselective,Substrate‐directed Fluorination of Functionalized Cyclopentane β‐Amino Acids

This work describes a substrate‐directed fluorination of some highly functionalized cyclopentane derivatives. The cyclic products incorporating CH₂F or CHF₂ moieties in their structure have been synthesized from diexo‐ or diendo‐norbornene β‐amino acids following a stereocontrolled strategy. The synthetic study was based on an oxidative transformation of the ring carbon–carbon double bond of the norbornene β‐amino acids, followed by transformation of the resulted ?all cis“ and ?trans“ diformyl intermediates by fluorination with ?chemodifferentiation“.     

Monitoring of the synthesis ofcis andtrans ruthenium macrocyclic complexes by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography

Summary The synthesis of the complex [Ru(cyclam)Cl₂]Cl (cyclam=1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) has been monitored by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The analytical results obtained during the reaction have shown that it is feasible to identify and isolate the two isomerscis- andtrans- [Ru(cyclam)-Cl₂]Cl. The use of an octadecylsiloxy preparative column enabled the separation and purification of these two isomers and the compounds have been obtained in high purity. The use of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography has afforded complete analytical control of the syntheses of saturated nitrogendonor macrocyclic complexes of ruthenium, enabling identification of thecis andtrans isomers of the complex [Ru(cyclam)Cl₂]Cl.     

An approach to sequence-specific antibody proteases

We describe here a novel strategy for the isolation of antibodies with sequence-specific protease activity: the synthesis of dipeptide haptens in which the targeted peptide bond has been replaced by a ring-strained or torsionally strained hydroxyethylene transition-state analog. Thus, the analogs mimic both a peptide bond in a distorted, reactive conformation and the transition state for peptide bond hydrolysis. In order to obtain sequence-specific antibody proteases, these analogs have been flanked with additional amino acid residues in preparation for immunization. In particular, we have synthesized peptides containing analogs such as 2-cis-amino-3-cis-hydroxycyclobutane carboxylic acid andendo-(3-amino-2-hydroxy)bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-7-anti-carboxylic acid. We have also prepared a series of peptide derivatives containing analogs, such as 2-[3-amino-2-oxo-1-azetidinyl]-3-methylbutanoic acid, in which the targeted peptide bond has been incorporated into a β-lactam ring. Since the “peptide bond” has been left intact, these species mimic only a distorted ground state. At present, antibodies are being elicited against a number of the above peptide derivatives.

Stereochemical studies 87saturated heterdcycles 82: Synthesis and steric structure of steredisomeric n-substituted tetrahydro-1,3-oxazines fused with norbornane or norbornene

$\text{diendo}$- and $\text{diexo}$-2-Methylamino and 2-benzylamino-3-hydroxymethylbicyclo [2.2.1]heptanes and the corresponding bicycio [2.2.1] heptenes ($\text{5a}$ -$\text{d}$, $\text{7a}$ -$\text{d}$) were synthesized from β-amino acid esters containing the norbornane or norbornene skeleton ($\text{3a}$-$\text{d}$). The aminoalcohols were converted to 5,8- methano -3,1-benzoxazines by reaction with formaldehyde. As established by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, the predominant conformation is $\text{endo - boat}$ ($\text{B}$) for the $\text{diexo}$, and $\text{exo - boat}$ ($\text{E}$) for the $\text{diendo}$ derivatives.     

Synthesis of benzazepines and their rearrangement to quinolines and pyrrolo(2,3-b) quinolines

BECKMANN or SCHMIDT rearrangement of ethyl trans-4-oxo-1-phenyl-2-tetralincarboxylate ( 2 ) affords ethyl trans-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1H-benzo [b] azepine-4-carboxylate ( 4 ). Mild treatment of trans-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1 H-benzo-[b] azepine-4-carboxylic acid ( 7 ) with thionyl chloride and pyridine in dimethylformamide and subsequent reaction with an amine yields the corresponding benzazepine-4-carboxamide. If he it is applied during the preparation of the acid chloride, rearrangement occurs yielding cis and trans derivatives of hydrocarbostyril. 2,3,4,5-Tetrahydro-1,4-methano-1-methyl-5-phenyl-1 H-benzo-[b] azepinium chloride ( 25 ) reacts with primary or secondary amines to cis-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives. When heated above its melting point, trans-4,5-dihydro-2-methylamino-5-phenyl-3H-benzo-[b] azepine-4-carboxylic acid ( 29 ) rearranges with elimination of water to a mixture of cis-and trans-2,3,3a,4-tetrahydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-4-phenyl-1H-pyrrolo [2,3-b] quinoline ( 32 and 31 ). The reduction of 31 was investigated. The mechanisms of the rearrangements are discussed.     

Synthesis and structure of cycloalkane‐ and norbornane‐condensed 6‐aryl‐1,2,4,5‐tetrahydropyridazinones

The C=N double bond of certain cis‐ or trans‐cycloalkane and diexo‐ or diendo‐norbornane‐condensed pyridazinones was reduced with NaBH₃CN. The cis‐ or trans nature of the starting cycloalkane derivatives was always retained in the saturated products, with a high degree of diastereoselectivity: the hydrogen on the new stereocenter and the annelational hydrogen next to the carbonyl always exhibited the same steric orientation. The stereostructures were determined by means of nmr measurements and confirmed by molecular modelling.

The reactions of 3-amino-1-phenyl-and 3-amino-1-(thien-2-yl)-4,4,4-trifluorobut-2-en-1-ones with 1,2-diaminopropane under kinetically controlled conditions afford mixtures ofcis andtrans isomers of 2-aroylmethyl-4-methyl-2-trifluoromethylimidazolidines. Analogous reactions with 1,2-diamino-3,3,3-trifluoropropane yieldcis-2-aroylmethyl-2,4-bis(trifluoro-methyl)imidazolidines. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis of Potential Inhibitors of Ethylene Biosynthesis: The diastereoisomers of 1-amino-2-bromocyclopropanecarboxylic acid

The preparation of the diastereoisomers of 1-amino-2-bromocyclopropanecarboxylic acid is described using the methyl (1RS, 5SR)-2-oxo-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-1-carboxylate 5 as starting material. The key step is the oxidation of 9 with subsequent radical introduction of bromine according to the Barton procedure. The 2-bromo-cyclopropanecarboxylates cis- 11 and trans- 11 were obtained as diastereoisomer mixture in a ratio of 3:1. They were converted into cis- and trans-esters 12 and the acids 13 .     

Selective formation of thecis isomer of the nitridotechnetium(V) complex with 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine

The reaction of [TcNCl₂(PPh₃)₂] with 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine producedcis-[TcNCl₂(terpy)] selectively. The resulting complexes were characterized by¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The geometries of thecis andtrans isomers were estimated by theoretical calculations following a density functional method. Thecis isomer is likely more stable than thetrans one with respect to thetrans influence of the nitrido ligand. Furthermore, the behavior of nitridotechnetium complexes in polar solvents was compared to Os-analogues.

The structure of the products was proved by IR and NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis.     

The reaction of methyl pyrrole-2-carboxylate with epoxides

Potassium methyl pyrrole-2-carboxylate and styrene oxide are shown to yield trans-1-styrylpyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (dry conditions) and 1-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid (moist conditions). The hydroxy acid yields 1H-3-phenyl-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[2.1-c]-[1.4]oxazin-1-one, on treatment with polyphosphoric acid. Vinyl acids were also obtained from the potassium pyrrole ester and ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, and cis- and trans-stilbene oxide; the latter two compounds yielded stereospecific products. A pyrrolo[2.1-c]-[1.4]benzoxazinone was obtained from cyclohexene oxide. The photo chemical isomerization of the trans-1-styryl acid and the attempted conversion into lactones is described.
