Photochemistry of 4-Thia-2-cycloalkenones. Part 2

Methyl 2-allyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxylate ( 2 ) photocyclizes selectively to methyl 2-oxo-7-thiatricyclo[3.2.1.0^3,6]octane-1-carboxylate ( 4 ). In contrast, 4-thia-2-cyclohexenone 3 , on irradiation, affords only low yields of dimers, cycloadducts (2-methylpropene) or RH reduction products (i-ProH).     

4-Hydroxy-2-quinolones. 174.* Hydrochlorides of [(alkylamino)alkyl]amides of 1-allyl- 4-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro- quinoline-3-carboxylic acid – a new class of opioid receptor antagonists

Novel Stereoselective Synthesis and Molecular and Crystalline Structure of 3-Allyl-4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-cyano-6-oxopiperidine-2-thione

The stereoselective synthesis of 3-allyl-4-(4-bromophenyl)-3-cyano-6-oxopiperidine-2-thione has been carried out by refluxing N-methylmorpholinium 5-[1-(4-bromophenyl)-2-cyano-2-thiocarbamoylethyl]-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxa-6-oxo-4-cyclohexen-4-olate with allyl bromide in ethanol.

4-Hydroxy-2-quinolones. 175.*Reaction of -1-allyl-3-[(arylamino)methylene]quinoline-2,4-(1H,3H)-diones with bromine

NMR spectroscopy showed that treatment of 1-allyl-3-[(arylamino)methylene]quinoline-2,4-(1H,3H)-diones with an equivalent amount of dry bromine in anhydrous acetic acid leads to the formation of 4-aryliminomethyl-2-bromomethyl-5-oxo-1,2-dihydro-5H-oxazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium bromides.     

4-Hydroxy-2-quinolones. 180*. Synthesis,chemical reactions,and analgesic activity of 1-allyl-4-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid alkylamides

A targeted synthesis was carried out of a series of 1-allyl-4-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxy-2-oxo-1,2-di-hydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid alkylamides which show interest for biological study as potential analgesics. It was found that, in the presence of one equivalent of bromine, the compounds indicated undergo halocyclization to the corresponding 2-bromomethyl-7,8-dimethoxy-5-oxo-1,2-dihydro-5H-oxa-zolo[3,2-a]quinoline-4-carboxylic acid alkylamides. However, with an excess of bromine the reaction occurs somewhat differently and concludes with the formation of complexes of bromine with 4-alkyl-carbamoyl-2-bromomethyl-5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxy-1,2-dihydrooxazolo[3,2-a]quinolinium ditri- bromides. According to the results of pharmacological screening there are found compounds within the substances discovered with high analgesic activity.

Alkylierung in der 2-Stellung von (2S, 4R)- 4-Hydroxyprolin unter Retention

Alkylation in the 2-Position of (2S, 4R)-4-Hydroxyproline with Retention of Configuration O-Acetyl-4-hydroxyproline ( 1b ) is condensed with pivalaldehyde to give a single stereoisomer of the 2-(tert-butyl)-4-oxo-3-oxa-1-azabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-7-yl acetate ( 3 ). This is converted to the enolates 4 or 5 , reactions of which with alkyl halides, aldehydes, and acetone (→ 6,9,10,11 ) are diastereoselective (lk-1,3-induction). Cleavage of the corresponding products furnishes the enantiomerically pure 2-deuterio-, 2-methyl-, 2-allyl-, and 2-benzyl-substituted 4-hydroxyprolines 2a–2d .

Säurekatalysierte Dienon-Phenol-Umlagerungen von Allylcyclohexadienonen; ladungsinduzierte und ladungskontrollierte sigmatropische Reaktionen

The rearrangement of 10-allyl-2-oxo-Δ^{1(9), 3}-hexahydronaphthalene ( 12 ) catalysed by trifluoroacetic acid and other Bronsted acids yielded almost exclusively the [3s, 3s]-products, 1- and 3-allyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthol ( 16 and 15 , respectively). The rearrangement of 12 with trifluoroacetic anhydride or acetic anhydride/sulfuric acid, yields, besides 15 and 16 , appreciable amounts of the [1s, 2s]-rearrangement product, 4-allyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-naphthol ( 14 ) (table 1). The CF₃COOH catalysed dienone-phenol-rearrangement of 6-ally-5,6-dimethyl-cyclohexa-2,4-dien-l-one ( 11 ) in hexane at 0° yields4-allyl-2,3-dimethyl-phenol ( 19 ). Rearrangement of d₃- ll containing a specifically deuteriated allyl group proves that the formation of d₃- 19 occurs via a [3s, 3s]-sigmatropic reaction. On the other hand, treatment of 11 with (CF₃CO)₂O at 0° in hexane gives (after saponification) 4-allyl-, 5-allyl- and 6-allyl-2,3-dimethyl-phenol ( 19 , 20 and 21 , respectivcly). This reaction occurs via an acyloxybenzenium-ion intermediate. The reactions performed with d₃- 11 demonstrate that the formation of d₃- 19 occurs both by a direct [3s, 3s]-shift and by a twofold [1s, 2s]-shift, respectively. d₃- 20 is formcd by a [3s, 4s]-sigmatropic reaction. d₃- 21 is obtained with about 95% inversion of the carbon skeleton of the allyl group. Thus d₃- 21 is mainly formed by a [1s, 2s]- followed by a [3s, 4s]-sigmatropic rearrangement. 6-Allyl-6-niethyl-cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-one ( 4 ) yields with CF₃COOH in hexane 4-allyl-2-methyl-phenol ( 5 ), whereas with (CF₃CO)₂O in hexane 5 , 3-allyl- and 5-allyl-2-methyl-phenol ( 24 and 25 , respectively) are formed in comparable amounts. As a minor product 6-allyl-2-methyl-phenol ( 26 ) was observed. Based on these observations, the concept of charge-induced, e.g. schemes 2 and 3, and charge-controlled, e.g. scheme 7, sigmatropic reactions, has been elaborated. In the former, the charge serves only to accelerate appreciably thermal orbital-symmetry allowed reactions, whereas in the latter, the charge determines the course of the transformations according to the Woodward-Hoffmann rules. Especially in acetylating systems, allylcyclohexdienones undergo charge-induced and charge-controlled reactions simultaneously.     

New synthetic approach to substituted isoindolo[2,1-a]quinoline carboxylic acids via intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of 4-(N-furyl-2)-4-arylaminobutenes-1 with maleic anhydride

Acylation of substituted 4-(furyl-2)-4-arylaminobut-1-enes with maleic anhydride provided 2-allyl-6-carboxy-4-oxo-3-aza-10-oxatricyclo[5.2.1.0^1,5]dec-8-enes in high yield under mild reaction conditions. The Diels-Alder adducts are formed via an initial amide formation followed by a stereoselective intramolecular [4+2] exo-cycloaddition reaction. Treatment of the tricyclic compounds with phosphoric acid at high temperatures (70-120 °C) promoted cyclic ether opening, intramolecular cyclization and aromatization to give the corresponding tetracyclic compounds, 5,6,6a,11-tetrahydro-10-carboxyisoindolo[2,1-a]quinolines, in moderate yields. The influence of the acid and the reaction temperature on the cyclization reactions are also discussed.     

Synthesis and molecular and crystal structure of 1-allyl-4-[2-cyano-2-(indan-1,3-dione-2-ylidene)ethylidene] -1, 4-dihydroquinoline

The reaction of 1-allyl-4-methylquinolinium bromide with 2-dicyanomethyleneindan-1,3-dione in the presence of a two-fold excess of triethylamine affords 1-allyl-4-[2-cyano-2-(indan-1,3-dione-2-ylidene) ethylidene]-1,4-dihydrogtiinoline, a representative of a new class of merocyanines. The structure of this compound has been established by X-ray structural analysis. A substantial intramolecular charge transfer and a hydrogen bond between the vinyl hydrogen atom and the indandione oxygen atom have been found.Dedeased in 1995Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

A new method for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-carbethoxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]selenophene was developed. The reaction of the latter with allyl isothiocyanate gave 2-(N-allylthioureido)-3-carbethoxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo[b]selenophene, which is cyclized to the potassium salt of 3-allyl-4-oxo-2-thio-3,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydrobenzo[b]selenopheno[2,3-d]pyrimidine on treatment with potassium hydroxide.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 326–328, March, 1973.

One-pot synthesis of 2-[(hydroxy- and methoxyphenyl)methyl]butane-1,4-diols in an overall yield of 60–65% by cycloalumination of allylbenzenes (4-allyl-1-methoxybenzene, 4-allyl-1,2-dimethoxybenzene, 5-allyl-2-methoxyphenol, and 5-allyl-1,2,3-trimethoxybenzene) with triethylaluminum in the presence of Cp₂ZrCl₂ is reported for the first time.

Reactions of 1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-dione hydrazone with 4-aryl-2-hydroxy-4-oxobut-2-enoic and 2-hydroxy-5,5-dimethyl-4-oxohex-2-enoic acids provided 4-aryl-4-oxo-2-[2-(2-oxo-1,2-diphenylethylidene) hydrazino]but-2-enoic and 5,5-dimethyl-4-oxo-2-[2-(2-oxo-1,2-diphenylethylidene)hydrazino]hex-2-enoic acids. The acids derivatives can exist in solutions as Z- and β-enehydrazino-or β-ketohydrazone forms, and under the treatment with acetic anhydride they undergo cyclization into 5-aryl- and 5-tert-butyl-3-[2-(2-oxo-1,2-diphenylethylidene)hydrazono]-2,3-furandiones.
