Investigation of the Reactions of Indole‐2,3‐diones with Biuret: A Novel Approach for the Synthesis of Spiro[indole‐triazines]

Reactions of indole‐2,3‐diones with biuret afforded 1,3‐dihydro‐3‐ureidoformimido‐2H‐indol‐2‐ones and spiro[3H‐indole‐3,2′(1′H )‐(1,3,5)triazine]‐2,4′,6′(1H ,3′H ,5′H )‐triones indicated these to be solvent dependent. The chemical structures of the products were elucidated by their comprehensive spectroscopic (IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, ¹⁹F‐NMR, and Mass) as well as analytical analysis.

One‐ and two‐dimensional NMR characterization of N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone/methyl acrylate copolymers

N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone/methyl acrylate (V/M) copolymers were prepared by free‐radical bulk polymerization using benzoyl peroxide as an initiator. The copolymer composition of these copolymers was calculated from ¹H NMR spectra. The radical reactivity ratios for N‐vinyl‐2‐pyrrolidone (V) and methyl acrylate (M) were r_V = 0.09, r_M = 0.44. These reactivity ratios for the copolymerization of V and M were determined using the Kelen–Tudos and nonlinear least‐squares error‐in‐variable methods. The ¹³C{¹H} and ¹H NMR spectra of these copolymers overlapped and were complex. The complete spectral assignment of the ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra were done with distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer and two dimensional ¹³C‐¹H heteronuclear single quantum correlation spectroscopic experiments. The two‐dimensional ¹H‐¹H homonuclear total correlation spectroscopic NMR spectrum showed the various bond interactions, thus inferring the possible structure of the copolymers. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Some novel isoxazole‐, 1,2,4 oxadiazole‐, and (1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)‐methanone oxime derivatives were synthesized from N‐hydroxy‐1H‐pyrazole‐4‐carbimidoyl chloride and the structures of all products were identified by spectral data (¹H‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, IR, MS, and HRMS) and evaluated their antibacterial activity.     

Synthesis of the Macrocyclic Spermidine Alkaloid (±)‐(2R*,3R*)‐3‐Hydroxycelacinnine

The macrocyclic lactam alkaloid (±)‐(2R*,3R*)‐3‐hydroxycelacinnine ( 1 ) derived from spermidine was synthesized via stereoselective epoxide‐ring opening with magnesium azide and cesium carbonate promoted macrocyclization of the ditosylated diamino precursor 12 with 1,4‐dibromobutane in the two key steps (Scheme 2). ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR Signal assignments from COSY, HSQC, and HMBC 2D NMR data of the synthesized 1 were compared with the earlier‐described data of the natural 3‐hydroxycelacinnine. The similarity of their ¹³C‐NMR spectra point to the correctness of the proposed constitutional formula for natural 3‐hydroxycelacinnine; however, different ¹H‐NMR chemical shifts and coupling constants (J(2,3)=9.0 vs. 1.2 Hz, resp.) in the α‐hydroxy‐β‐amino lactam moiety suggest that natural 3‐hydroxycelacinnine is the 2,3‐cis‐epimer of one synthetic (±)‐ 1 .     

Triterpenoidal Secondary Metabolites from Lantana Camara Linn.

Three new pentacyclic triterpenoids, camarin ( 1 ), lantacin ( 2 ), and camarinin ( 3 ) were isolated from the aerial parts of Lantana camara Linn ., together with seven known compounds.

New Limonoids from the Seeds of Xylocarpus granatum

Three novel limonoids, 2,3‐dideacetylxyloccensin S ( 1 ), 30‐deacetylxyloccensin W ( 2 ), and 7‐hydroxy‐21β‐methoxy‐3‐oxo‐24,25,26,27‐tetranortirucalla‐1,14‐diene‐23(21)‐lactone ( 3 ), were isolated from the seeds of the Chinese mangrove, Xylocarpus granatum.

Unequivocal total assignment of 13C and 1H NMR spectra of some pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives by 2D‐NMR

We report the total assignments of the ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectra of some 4‐methyl‐2‐oxo‐(2H)‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine and 2‐methyl‐4‐oxo‐(4H)‐pyrido[1,2‐a]pyrimidine derivatives. The products were characterized by ¹H and ¹³C NMR and reported data for similar compounds. No comparative data for the two sets of isomeric compounds with respect to ¹³C and ¹H NMR have been reported to date. We made some detailed studies of the 2D NMR spectra of these compounds and observed that assignments made for non‐protonated carbon atoms by us and those reported in the literature for similar compounds need correction. The revised assignments were made on the basis of heteronuclear single quantum correlation (HSQC) and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) techniques.

1H and 13C NMR spectral assignments of novel chromenylchalcones

Several types of chalcones containing 2H‐chromen group were synthesized. Claisen–Schmidt condensation of 2H‐chromen‐3‐carbaldehydes (I) with methoxy substituted acetophenones afforded (E)‐3‐(2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐1‐(methoxyphenyl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐ones (chromenylchalcones, 1–7). Other types of chromenylchalcone, (E)‐1‐(6‐methoxy‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)‐3‐(methoxyphenyl)prop‐2‐en‐1‐ones (8–13) were also obtained between reaction of methoxy substituted benzaldehydes and 1‐(6‐methoxy‐2H‐chromen‐3‐yl)ethanone (II). Dichromenylchalcones (14–16) were also synthesized through the same reaction between aldehydes (I) and ketone (II). Their complete ¹H‐NMR and ¹³C‐NMR assignments are reported here and more polysubstituted chromenylchalcones synthesized or isolated from the natural sources in the future can be identified on the basis of the NMR data reported here.

Hydroacridines: Part 23. 1H and 13C NMR spectra of sym‐octahydroacridine,its 9‐(3‐pyridyl) and 9‐(4‐pyridyl) derivatives and the corresponding N(10)‐oxides. An experimental approach to the diamagnetic anisotropy of the pyridine nucleus

The complete ¹H NMR chemical shift assignments of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8‐octahydroacridine ( 1 ), 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8‐octahydro‐9‐(3‐pyridyl)acridine ( 2 ), 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8‐octahydro‐9‐(4‐pyridyl)acridine ( 3 ) and the corresponding N(10)‐oxides 1a , 2a and 3a , respectively, were achieved on the basis of 400 MHz ¹H NMR spectra and proton–proton decoupling, HMQC and NOEDIFF experiments. The spectral data for the above compounds provided the first experimental evidence of the difference in the anisotropy effect of the two non‐symmetrical moieties of the pyridine nucleus, and allowed us to ascertain that the shielding effect of the moiety defined by the C(2′)—N—C(6′) atoms is weaker than that of the C(3′)—C(4′)—C(5′) moiety. The ¹³C NMR spectra of 1 – 3 and 1a – 3a and the effect of N(10)‐oxidation on the ¹³C NMR chemical shifts are also discussed. The N‐oxidation of 2 and 3 with m‐chloroperbenzoic acid occurred regiospecifically, affording the N(10)‐oxides 2a and 3a free of N(1′)‐oxide isomers. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A Greener Approach Synthesis and Docking Studies of Perimidine Derivatives as Potential Anticancer Agents

Microwave solvent‐free technique was employed to the synthesis of series of 2‐(1H‐perimidin‐2(3H)‐ylidene) derivatives, 4‐(1H‐perimidin‐2‐yl)‐1H‐pyrazole‐3‐carboxamides, pyrrolo[1,2‐a]perimidin‐10‐ones, and 8H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐a]perimidine. Compared with conventional method, the obvious feature of microwave method is higher in chemical yield, faster reaction rate, and cleaner reaction condition. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed based on their elemental analyses and spectroscopic data (FT‐IR, ¹H‐NMR, ¹⁹F‐NMR, ¹³C‐NMR, and LC‐MS/MS). Some of the synthesized compounds exhibit anticancer potential against the growth of both the human breast (MCF‐7) and the liver carcinoma (HepG2) tumor cells. The most active cytotoxic perimidine derivatives were docked against topoisomerase II to investigate their binding and DNA intercalating activity against the protein crystal structure.

Influence of Temperatures on the Tautomerism of the N‐(1H‐imidazoline‐2‐yl)‐1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐amine and Investigation of Its Electrochemical Behaviour

Synthesis of N‐(1H‐imidazoline‐2‐yl)‐1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐amine was carried out under microwave irradiation (MWI) conditions. Dynamic ¹H NMR investigation of N‐(1H‐imidazoline‐2‐yl)‐1H‐benzimidazol‐2‐amine compound was reported at temperature range of 223–333 K in DMF‐d₇. Some physical parameters, such as coalescence temperature (T_c), the free energy of activation (ΔG^??) and rate constant (k) values were calculated from its ¹H NMR spectra at various temperatures. Electrochemical feature of this compound was investigated by cyclic (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV).     

NMR analysis of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene

¹H, ¹³C and two‐dimensional NMR analyses were applied to determine the NMR parameters of 6‐(2′,3′‐dihydro‐1′H‐inden‐1′‐yl)‐1H‐indene. The measurements were accomplished with 0.5 mg of the substance, this quantity being sufficient to determine the chemical shifts of all the H and C atoms, and also the appropriate coupling constants and to give the complete NMR resonance assignments of the molecule. The predicted patterns of the four different H atoms of the methylene groups of the indane structural element coincided completely with the complex patterns in the NMR spectra.
