Preparation of 4-trifluoroethylidene-1,3-dioxolane derivatives via new stable (trifluoromethyl)ethynylation reagent

Perfluoroalkylated 4-trifluoroethylidene-1,3-dioxolane derivatives 2a-q were prepared in excellent yields from the reaction of new stable (trifluoromethyl)ethynylation reagent 1a with 1.3 equiv. of TBAF at −15°C for 10 min, followed by treatment with 2 equiv. of phenyl perfluoroalkylated ketone derivatives at room temperature. The reaction of 1a with 1.3 equiv. of TBAF, followed by treatment with 1 equiv. of aldehyde or ketone at −15°C for 10 min and then with trifluoroacetophenone (1 equiv.) at room temperature afforded perfluoroalkylated 4-trifluoroethylidene-1,3-dioxolane derivatives 2t-u in moderate yields.     

1,2‐Bis(trifluoromethyl)ethene‐1,2‐dicarbonitrile and Vinyl Ethers: Cyclic Ketene Imines on the Pathway to 1 : 2 Cycloadducts

(E)‐ and (Z)‐1,2‐bis(trifluoromethyl)ethene‐1,2‐dicarbonitrile (BTE; (=E)‐ and (Z)‐1,2‐bis(trifluoromethyl)but‐2‐enedinitrile) were reacted with an excess of methyl vinyl ether, used as solvent, and furnished 1 : 2 adducts 6 (54%) and cyclobutanes 3 as 1 : 1 adducts (41%). The four diastereoisomeric bis‐adducts 6 (different ratios from (E)‐ and (Z)‐BTE) are derivatives of 1‐azabicyclo[4.2.0]oct‐5‐ene; X‐ray analyses and ¹⁹F‐NMR spectra revealed their structures. Since the cyclobutanes 3 are resistant to vinyl ether, the pathways leading to mono‐ and bis‐adducts must compete on the level of the intermediate l,4‐zwitterions 1 and 2 . The latter either cyclize to the cyclobutanes 3 or to six‐membered cyclic ketene imines 8 which accept a second molecule of vinyl ether to yield the bis‐adducts 6 . The occurrence of the highly strained ketene imines 8 gains credibility by comparison to stable seven‐membered cyclic ketene imines recently reported.     

Copoly(p‐phenylene)s containing bipolar triphenylamine and 1,2,4‐triazole groups: Synthesis,optoelectronic properties,and applications

Two novel copoly(p‐phenylene)s ( P1 – P2 ) containing bipolar groups (12.8 and 6.8 mol %, respectively), directly linked hole transporting triphenylamine and electron transporting aromatic 1,2,4‐triazole, were synthesized to enhance electroluminescence (EL) of poly(p‐phenylene vinylene) (PPV) derivatives. The bipolar groups not only enhance thermal stability but also promote electron affinity and hole affinity of the resulting copoly(p‐phenylene)s. Blending the bipolar copoly‐(p‐phenylene)s ( P1 – P2 ) with PPV derivatives ( d6‐PPV ) as an emitting layer effectively improve the emission efficiency of its electroluminescent devices [indium tin oxide (ITO)/poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS)/polymer blend/Ca (50 nm)/Al (100 nm)]. The maximum luminance and maximum luminance efficiency were significantly enhanced from 310 cd m^?2 and 0.03 cd A^?1 ( d6‐PPV ‐based device) to 1450 cd m^?2 and 0.20 cd A^?1 (blend device with d6‐PPV / P1 = 96/4 containing ～0.5 wt % of bipolar groups), respectively. Our results demonstrate the efficacy of the copoly(p‐phenylene)s with bipolar groups in enhancing EL of PPV derivatives. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2010

New natural product -an efficient antimicrobial applications of new newly synthesized pyrimidine derivatives by the electrochemical oxidation of hydroxyl phenol in the presence of 2-mercapto-6-(trifluoromethyl) pyrimidine-4-ol as nucleophile

Some new pyrimidine derivatives have been synthesised by electrochemical oxidation of catechol (1a) in the existence of 2-mercapto-6-(trifluoromethyl) pyrimidine-4-ol (3) as a nucleophile in aqueous solution using Cyclic Voltammetric and Controlled Potential Coulometry. The catechol has been oxidised to o-quinone through electrochemical method and participative in Michael addition reaction, leading to the development of some new pyrimidine derivatives. The products were achieved in good yield with high pureness. The mechanism of the reaction has been conformed from the Cyclic Voltammetric data and Controlled Potential Coulometry. After purification, the compounds were characterised using modern techniques. The synthesised materials were screened for antimicrobial actions using Gram positive and Gram negative strain of bacteria. These new synthesised pyrimidine derivatives showed very good antimicrobial activity.     

Palladium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Trifluoromethylated Allylic Alkylation of N-Substituted Glycine Ethyl Esters with α-(Trifluoromethyl)alkenyl Acetates

An efficient strategy for asymmetric trifluoromethylated allylic alkylation of easily available N-substituted glycine ethyl esters with α-(trifluoromethyl)alkenyl acetates has been developed. Catalyzed by a [Pd(C₃H₅)Cl]₂/(R)-BINAP, various trifluoromethyl-containing N-substituted glycine ethyl ester derivatives are afforded with good yields and excellent enantioselectivities. The product can be readily converted into diverse fluoro-substituted species, which shows the practicability of this method.

Synthesis of poly(phenylacetylene)s containing trifluoromethyl groups for gas permeable membrane

Poly(phenylacetylene)s containing trifluoromethyl groups on their benzene rings were synthesized, and gas permeation behaviors of their films were examined. Permeability coefficients for O₂ and N₂, diffusion selectivity (D_o2/D_N2) and solubility selectivity (SO₂/SN₂) were estimated. The gas permeability of polymer films were found to be enhanced remarkably with introduction of trifluoromethyl groups into the polymers: poly[2,4,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)phenylacetylene], Po₂ = 7.8 × 10^?8 [cm³ (STP) cm cm^?2 s^?1 cm Hg^?1], Po₂/PN₂ = 2.1. The relationship between the polymer structures and their gas permeability was discussed.

The synthesis and characterization of several new phosphorus-containing partially lower rim substituted derivatives of 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl) calix(4)arene (I) and 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-octyl)calix(4)arene (II), namely 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(diphenylphosphinoyl-oxy) calix(4)arene (IV); 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25-hydroxy-26,27,28-tris(tetramethyldiamido-phosphinoyl-oxy) calix(4)arene (Vb); 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(dimethyl-phosphinoyl-methoxy) calix(4)arene (VI); 5,11,17,23-tetra (t-octyl)-25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(dimethyl-phosphinoyl-methoxy) calix(4)arene (VII) are reported. The structure of the synthesized calix(4)arene derivatives are identified and confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry as and X-ray crystallographic analysis of 5,11,17,23-tetra(t-butyl)-25,27-dihydroxy-26,28-bis(dimethyl-phosphinoyl-methoxy) calix(4)arene VI. According to the NMR spectra, all calix(4)arenes are in cone conformation.     

Sensitive enantioseparation and determination of isoprenaline in human plasma and pharmaceutical formulations

A simple, sensitive and fast RPHPLC method was developed and validated for the enantioselective determination of (RS)‐isoprenaline (Ipn) in human plasma. The enantiomers were converted to diastereomeric derivatives using s‐triazine (cyanuric chloride) based chiral derivatizing reagents. l ‐isoleucine and l ‐methionine were introduced as chiral auxiliary in s‐triazine and two new monochloro‐s‐triazine reagents were synthesized. These reagents were characterized and used for synthesis of diastereomeric derivatives of (RS)‐Ipn spiked in human plasma. (RS)‐Ipn was isolated (purified and characterized) from a commercial pharmaceutical formulation and was used as the standard racemic sample. Structures of the two diastereomeric derivatives were optimized for lowest energy using the Gaussian 09 Rev A. 02 program and hybrid density functional B3LYP with 6‐31G* basis set which showed the spatial orientation of hydrophobic groups on stereogenic centers in the diastereomeric derivatives. The results were correlated with the mechanism of separation and elution order. Limit of detection values were found to be 24.6 and 26.8 ng mL^?1 for the first and second eluting diastereomeric derivatives, respectively.     

Liquid chromatographic enantioseparation of (RS)‐etodolac using (S)‐levofloxacin and determination of absolute configuration of the diastereomeric derivatives

(RS)‐Etodolac was isolated from commercial tablets and was purified and characterized to be used as racemic standard. A pair of diastereomeric derivatives was synthesized using (S)‐levofloxacin as a chiral derivatizing reagent. The derivatization reaction was carried out under conditions of stirring at room temperature (30°C for 1.5 h) as well as under microwave irradiation; the derivatives obtained by the two methods were compared. Reaction conditions for derivatization were optimized with respect to mole ratio of chiral derivatizing reagent and (RS)‐etodolac. No racemization was observed throughout the study. Separation of diastereomeric derivatives was successful using C₁₈ column and a binary mixture of methanol and triethyl ammonium phosphate buffer of pH 4.5 (80:20, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL min^?1 and UV detection at 223 nm. An efficient approach for recognizing chirality and determining the absolute configuration of the diastereomeric derivatives of (RS)‐etodolac is described, which in turn is a measure of the enantiomeric purity of (RS)‐etodolac since the diastereomeric derivatives were separated and isolated using preparative thin‐layer chromatography.     

First example of regioselective nucleophilic 1,6-addition of trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane to 4H-chromene derivatives

Condensation of 2-trifluoromethylchromone with diethyl malonate, ethyl cyanoacetate, and Meldrum’s acid gave the corresponding methylidene derivatives of 2-trifluoromethyl-4H-chromene. Nucleophilic 1,6-addition of an excess of Me₃SiCF₃ in the presence of Me₄NF to those obtained from the former two compounds afforded 4-substituted 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2H-chromenes.

1H and 13C chemical shifts for acridines: Part XVIII. 9‐Chloroacridine and 9‐(N‐allyl)‐ and 9‐(N‐propargyl)acridinamine derivatives

The¹H and ¹³C NMR resonances for acridine derivatives 9‐substituted with chloro, allylamino and propargylamino groups were completely assigned using a concerted application of gs‐COSY, gs‐HMQC and gs‐HMBC experiments. 9‐(N‐Allyl)‐ and 9‐(N‐propargyl)acridinamine derivatives present amino–imino tautomerism including a large broadening of ¹H and ¹³C NMR signals at room temperature. To obtain suitable resolution, therefore, these latter compounds were studied at 370 K in DMSO‐d6 solutions and showed a complete shift towards the imino tautomers.

具有咖啡酰基和没食子酰基的β-二酮酸及喹噁啉酮类HIV整合酶抑制剂的设计合成及其对Cu2+的选择性识别

An efficient procedure for the synthesis of caffeoyl-and galloyl-containing β-diketoacid derivatives linked byarylamide was reported by,in the key step,dissolving the corresponding phenyl methyl ketone in THF/DME in thepresence of NaOMe as base and dimethyl oxalate as oxalylation reagent,and then separating the sodium ketoe-nolate ester.The resulting β-diketoacids underwent further condensation reaction with o-phenylenediamine to gen-erate quinoxalone derivatives in good yield,rather than 2-benzimidazol.The preliminary ion binding properties ofquinoxalone derivatives were also investigated.UV-Vis spectra showed that these compounds could selectively rec-ognize Cu~(2 )ion in ethanol and form a 1∶2 complex.     

Synthesis of Three‐, Five‐, and Six‐Membered Heterocycles Derived from New β‐Amino‐α‐(trifluoromethyl) Alcohols

Nucleophilic trifluoromethylation of α‐imino ketones 2 , derived from arylglyoxal, with Ruppert–Prakash reagent (CF₃SiMe₃) offers a convenient access to the corresponding O‐silylated β‐imino‐α‐(trifluoromethyl) alcohols. In a ‘one‐pot’ procedure, by treatment with NaBH₄, these products smoothly undergo reduction and desilylation yielding the expected β‐amino‐α‐(trifluoromethyl) alcohols 4 . The latter were used as starting materials for the synthesis of diverse trifluoromethylated heterocycles, including aziridines 5 , 1,3‐oxazolidines 8 , 1,3‐oxazolidin‐2‐ones 9 , 1,3,2‐oxazaphospholidine 2‐oxides 10 , 1,2,3‐oxathiazolidine 2‐oxides 11 , and morpholine‐2,3‐diones 12 . An optically active 5‐(trifluoromethyl)‐substituted 1,3‐oxazolidin‐2‐one 9g was also obtained.     

Synthesis of tri-n-butyltin taurocholate,taurodeoxycholate and glycocholate

The bile acids, taurocholic, taurodeoxycholic and glycocholic acid, were reacted with bis(tri-n-butyltin) oxide (TBTO) to form 1:1 derivatives. The water of reaction was removed with 2, 2-dimethoxypropane or by azeotropic distillation with benzene. The compounds were characterized by ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR, IR, elemental analysis, molecular weight determination, DTA, TGA, and conductance measurements. The data indicated that tri-n-butyltin glycocholate forms a covalent ester, tin being tetracoordinated. The taurocholic and taurodeoxycholic acid derivatives contain one molecule of coordinated water. They partially dissociate in polar solvents. The taurocholic and glycocholic acid derivatives were tested in vitro as anticancer agents and exhibited ED₅₀ in the 0.2–0.4 ppm (mg kg^?1) range against KB epidermoid tumor and P-388 leukemia using NCI protocols.     

Organometallic complexes with biological molecules: V. In vivo cytotoxicity of diorganotin(IV)-amoxicillin derivatives in mitotic chromosomes of rutilus rubilio (pisces,cyprinidae)

In Order to test in vivo cytotoxicity of diorganotin(IV)-amoxicillin (amox) derivatives, mitotic chromosomes of Rutilus rubilio (Pisces, Cyprinidae) have been analyzed using two different chromosome-staining techniques. Results gathered after exposure of fish to the free amox · 3H₂O, R₂SnClamox · 2H₂O, and R₂Snamox · ₂ 2H₂O (R = methyl, butyl and phenyl; amox⁻ = 6-[D(−)-β-amino-p-hydroxyphenylacetamido]penicillinate) suggest that methyl derivatives seem to exert a lower cytotoxicity than butyl and phenyl ones and that R₂Snamox · ₂ 2H₂O deriva-tives are more toxic than R₂SnClamox · 2H₂O at both 10⁻⁵ and 10⁻⁷mol dm⁻³ concentrations. The following structural lesions have been iden-tified by comparative analysis of mitotic chromo-somes from untreated specimens (controls) and specimens treated with diorganotin(IV)-amoxicillin derivatives: (1) differentially stained chromosome areas; (2) granular deeply stained zones along the chromosomal body; (3) arm breakages; and (4) side-arm bridges (pseudochiasmata).     

Functional polymers,XL. Syntheses of mono- and di(4-methoxy)benzotriazolesubstituted 2,4-dihydroxyaceto(or benzo)phenones

Eight benzotriazoles and (4-methoxy)benzotriazoles, mono- or di-substituted derivatives of 2,4-dihydroxyaceto(or benzo)phenone were synthesized by azo coupling of (4-methoxy)2-nitrobenzenediazonium chloride with 2,4-dihydroxyaceto(or benzo)phenone followed by reductive cyclization. Pure mono-substituted compounds were very difficult to prepare. Careful selection of thepH for the azo coupling and selection of the proper reagents for the reductive cyclization were essential. All compounds were characterized by their ultraviolet, infrared¹H and¹³C NMR spectra and their elemental analysis. These compounds have both the 2(2-hydroxyphenyl)2H-benzotriazole unit and a 2-hydroxyaceto(or benzo)phenone unit in the same molecule and are effective and useful ultraviolet absorbers.Dedicated to Prof. Dr.K. Komarek, Vienna, on the occasion of his 60^th birthday with best wishes.     

Structural Studies on Dimethyltin(IV) Carboxylates

In order to correlate ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer parameters and structural data for dimethyltin(IV) derivatives, the molecular structures of bis(acetato)dimethyltin(IV) and bis(trifluoroacetato)dimethyltin(IV) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffration. Crystals of Me₂Sn(OOCCH₃)₂ are monoclinic, a = 26.282(4), b = 5.282(1), c = 14.434(3) Å, β = 101.17(2)°, Z = 8, space group C2/c, and those of [Me₂Sn(OOCCF₃)₂]_n are monoclinic, a = 8.444(1), b = 17.689(1), c = 15.368(1) Å, β = 93.013(9)°, Z = 8, space group Cc. The structures were solved by the Patterson method and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to R = 0.025 and 0.027 (R_w = 0.023 and 0.030) for 2 298 and 4 182 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(F²), respectively.     

Synthesis of 4‐silaspiro[3.4]octa‐1,5‐diene derivatives: hybrid spiro compounds

Trialkynyl(vinyl)silanes CH₂?CH? Si(C?C? R)₃ (R = Bu, Ph, p‐tolyl) were prepared and treated with 9‐borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9‐BBN). Consecutive 1,2‐hydroboration and intramolecular 1,1‐carboboration reactions (each requires different reaction conditions) were studied. 1,2‐Hydroboration of the Si? vinyl group takes place at ambient temperature (23°C in tetrahydrofuran), followed by intramolecular 1,1‐vinylboration to give 1‐silacyclopent‐2‐ene derivatives, bearing still two alkynyl functions at the silicon atom. Further treatment with a second equivalent of 9‐BBN affords 1‐alkenyl‐1‐(alkynyl)‐1‐silacyclopent‐2‐ene derivatives. These undergo intramolecular 1,1‐vinylboration to give 4‐silaspiro[3.4]octa‐1,5‐dienes bearing the boryl groups at 2 and 6 positions. Protodeborylation of all new compounds (intermediates and final products) using acetic acid in slight excess afforded corresponding silanes including spirosilanes. All compounds were characterized using multinuclear NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, ²⁹Si) in solution state. Solid‐state structures for one of the trialkynyl(vinyl)silanes (R = p‐tolyl) and one of the 1‐silacyclopent‐2‐ene derivatives (R = Ph) were confirmed using X‐ray diffraction.
