Synthesis of 4- and 6-methyl derivatives of 5,7-dioxo(4h,6h)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine based on methylbarbituric acids,spectroscopic characteristics and acidity constants

We have obtained previously unknown 1-methyl- and 1,3-dimethyl-5-diethylaminothiocarbonylthiobarbituric acids by reaction of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate with 5-phenyliodonium betaines of 1-methyl- and 1,3-dimethylbarbituric acids. Cyclization of these compounds upon heating in conc. H₂SO₄ gives methyl-substituted 5,7-dioxo(4H,6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-diethylimmonium hydrosulfates; the derivative of 1-methylbarbituric acid forms a mixture of 4-methyl- and 6-methyl-substituted compounds (21). We isolated perchlorates of 4-methyl- and 4,6-dimethyl-substituted derivatives in pure form. By treatment of the immonium salt with sodium sulfide or selenide, we obtained 4-methyl- and 4,6-dimethyl-5,7-dioxo(4H,6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-thiones and 4-methyl-, 6-methyl-, and 4,6-dimethyl-2-selenones. We characterized the isomeric 4- and 6-methyl-substituted selenones by electronic absorption spectra and ionization constants (7.65 and 4.0). The differences in the pK values and in the electronic absorption spectra makes it possible to distinguish the substitution site in N-mono-substituted derivatives of 5,7-dioxo(4H,6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1526–1533, November, 1993.     

Synthesis, spectral and thermal studies of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes 1-(4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidin-2-ylazo)-naphthalen-2-ol

The electronic absorption spectra of 1-(4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidin-2-ylazo)-naphthalen-2-ol is studied in organic solvents of different polarity as well as in buffer solutions of varying pH values at different temperatures and different ratios of methanol. The probable structure of the azodye has been assigned on the basis of spectral studies (IR and (1)H NMR).

The stoichiometry of the metal complexes is determined spectrophotometrically and conductometrically. Novel complexes of Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) with the pyrimidine azodye have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements, IR, electronic as well as ESR spectral studies The thermal decomposition of the metal complexes is studied by TGA and DTA techniques.

Solvent effects on the steady-state absorption and fluorescence spectra of uracil, thymine and 5-fluorouracil

We report a comparison of the steady-state absorption and fluorescence spectra of three representative uracil derivatives (uracil, thymine and 5-fluorouracil) in alcoholic solutions. The present results are compared with those from our previous experimental and computational studies of the same compounds in water and acetonitrile. The effects of solvent polarity and hydrogen bonding on the spectra are discussed in the light of theoretical predictions. This comparative analysis provides a more complete picture of the solvent effects on the absorption and fluorescence properties of pyrimidine nucleobases, with special emphasis on the mechanism of the excited state deactivation.     

DFT Investigations(Geometry Optimization,UV/Vis,FT-IR,NMR, HOMO-LUMO,FMO, MEP,NBO, Excited States) and the Syntheses of New Pyrimidine Dyes

In the present work, the molecular structures of two new synthesized dyes:(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-ylamino)(5-p-tolylisoxazol-3-yl)methanol(PS-1) and N-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yl)-5-phenylisoxazole-3-carboxamide(PS-2), have been investigated using density functional theory(DFT) in dimethylformamide(DMF) for the first time. The electronic spectra of new dyes in a DMF solvent were carried out by time dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT) method. After quantum-chemical calculations two new dyes for the optoelectronic applications were synthesized. FT-IR spectra of the title compounds are recorded and discussed. NucleusIndependent Chemical Shifts(NICS) calculations have also been carried out for the title compounds. The computed absorption spectral data of the title compounds are in good agreement with the experimental data, thus allowing an assignment of the UV spectra. The HOMO and LUMO molecular orbitals, excitation energies and oscillator strengths for the dyes have also been calculated and presented.     

Stepwise charge transfer complexation of some pyrimidines with sigma-acceptor iodine involving a new unconventional acceptor

Interactions of some pyrimidine derivatives, 4-amino-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine, kyanmethin, (4AP), 2-amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine (2AP), 2-aminopyrimidine (AP), 2-amino-4-methylpyrimidine (AMP), 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidine (AMMP), and 4-amino-5-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine (ACDP) as electron donors, with iodine (I(2)), as a typical sigma-electron acceptor, have been studied. Electronic absorption spectra of these interactions in several organic solvents of different polarities have performed instant appearance of clear charge transfer (CT) bands. Formation constants (KCT), molar absorption coefficients (epsilonCT) and thermodynamic properties, DeltaH, DeltaS, and DeltaG, of these interactions have been determined and discussed. Electronic absorption spectra of the solutions of the synthesized pyrimidines-iodine, P-I2, CT complexes have shown the characteristic bands of the triiodide ion, I3*. UV/vis spectral tracking of these interactions have shown that by lapse of time the first formed CT complex, P-I2, is transformed to the corresponding triiodide complex, P(+)I.I3*, then, the later interacts as a new unconventional acceptor and it forms a CT complex of the form (P).(P+I.I3*). Elemental analyses of these solid complexes have indicated the stoichiometric ratio 2:2, or formally 1:1, P:I2.     

Solvent and substituent effects on spectroscopical changes of some diazoaminobenzene derivatives

A series of diazoaminobenzene derivatives (seven) in which the substituents have a wide range of electronic characters are set out to understand the involvement of the substituent identity in controlling the changes in their electronic absorption spectra. The interactions between the diazoamino group and the different groups account for some spectral shifts. The UV-vis spectrum of each compound is measured in several solvents with wide variations of solvent polarity parameters to examine the role of the chemistry of the solvent in these spectroscopical changes. The electronic transitions are assigned and the solvent induced spectral shifts are analyzed in relation to the different solute-solvent interaction mechanisms using computational chemistry. The regression analysis is applied for correlating the different parameters. The results help to assign the solute-solvent interactions and the solvatochromic potential of the investigated compounds. It is concluded that the electronic character of the substituent and the chemical nature of the solvent are the major factors for the observed solvatochromism.     

Transition moment directions in 9,10-anthraquinones. Symmetrical cases

Linear dichroism (LD) absorption spectra of 9,10-anthraquinone and a number of derivatives of C_2v symmetry have been recorded using specially produced thick stretched polyenthylene sheets as an anisotropic solvent. The spectra were recorded in the infrared region, which provided very precise information on the relevant properties of the solute orientation distribution. Similarly, absorption spectra were recorded in the visible-ultraviolet region which made a separation of the spectrum into contributions from different excited electronic state symmetries possible. This allows a detailed discussion of transition moment directions and the spectral assignment of the electronic transitions.

Quantum chemical calculations of energies, geometrical structural parameters, harmonic and anharmonic frequencies of 2,4-DCP and 4,6-DCP were carried out by HF and density functional theory methods with 6-311++G(d,p) as basis set.

A comparison of theoretically calculated vibrational frequencies at B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) with FT-IR and FT-Raman experimental data shows good agreement between them. Natural atomic charges of 2,4-DCP and 4,6-DCP were calculated and compared with pyrimidine molecule.

基于2,4-二丙稀酰胺嘧啶的氢键复合物的稳定性和光谱

氢键对含有以嘧啶为基的衍生物的生命体具有重要作用。用AM1 和 DFT 方法对2,4-二丙稀酰胺嘧啶(2,4-BAAP) 衍生物与1-取代的脲嘧啶形成的氢键复合物电子结构进行理论研究。用INDO/SCI 和 B3LYP/6-31G(d)方法分别计算了复合物的UV和NMR光谱。结果表明,由于结合能为负值,两单体能通过三重氢键形成复合物,取代基存在时结合能变小。这种削弱效应取决于电子效应和空间效应的协同作用。当2,4-BAAP上哌啶基存在时,由于异构复合物的形成,复合物的结合能变小。供电基存在时复合物的能隙变小。共轭体系的扩展使复合物易于注入电子和空穴。复合物电子光谱的第一吸收峰与母体相比发生红移由于其具有较小的LUMO-HOMO能隙。在13C NMR谱中,复合物C=O键上的C原子的化学位移向低场移动。

Near ultraviolet spectroscopic studies of 2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine-3-oxide (minoxidil) and 2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine (desoxyminoxidil)

The near u.v. spectra of 2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine (desoxyminoxidil) and 2,4-diamino-6-piperidinopyrimidine-3-oxide (minoxidil) can be viewed as perturbed pyrimidine spectra. The u.v. properties of pyrimidine and a series of aminopyrimidines, specifically 2,4,6-triaminopyrimidine, are examined to obtain u.v. spectral assignments for desoxyminoxidil and minoxidil. Minoxidil and its desoxy counterpart have C_s symmetry, and all π → π* absorptions are allowed ¹A′ ← ¹A′ transitions. The two lowest energy π →- π* absorptions observed in minoxidil (262 nm, 292 nm) are tentatively assigned as very mild oxygen → pyrimidine ring charge-transfer transitions. Intensity decreases in protic solvents, and the results of simple Hückel molecular orbital calculations indicate that the 292 nm transition has more charge-transfer character than the 262 nm absorption. The protonated species of desoxyminoxidil and minoxidil have very similar u.v. spectra. This is due to the lack of oxygen-related charge transfer in protonated minoxidil, and the high probability that the positive charge resides in similar environments in the minoxidil and desoxyminoxidil molecular frameworks.     

Unveiling electronic transitions in three novel chiral azo-compounds using linear and nonlinear circular dichroism: a theoretical-experimental study

Herein, we report on the experimental and theoretically study of the linear absorption, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, as well as the two-photon absorption circular-linear dichroism measurements of three different chiral azo derivatives in dimethylsulfoxide solution. Using potential energy surfaces and frontier orbital analysis, we established the most stable conformation for each molecule and elucidated their different electronic transitions. Our theoretical calculations allowed us to unambiguously identify the spectral position of such transitions and correlate them with the spectral profiles observed in the two-photon absorption spectra. To further elucidate the characteristics of the main electronic transitions in terms of spectral shape and position, we carried out measurements of the polarization dependent two-photon absorption cross sections and determined the two-photon circular-linear dichroism spectra of these azo dyes.
