Synthesis of hydrogels from a polymeric N,N′-diallyl-N,N′-dimethylammonium salt

Feasibility in principle has been demonstrated for obtaining hydrogels with controlled parameters of the three-dimensional network by copolymerization of N,N-methylenebisacrylamine with macromolecules of poly-N,N-diallyl-N,N-dimethylammonium chloride containing terminal double bonds, i.e., with macromonomers of N,N-diallyl-N,N-dimethylammonium chloride. The hydrogels that are obtained have high anion-exchange capacities.A. V. Topchiev Institute of Petrochemical Synthesis, Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Moscow 117912.

Synthesis of N′-phosphinatodiazene N-oxides

We have developed a regiospecific method for synthesis of N-phosphinatodiazene N-oxides, a previously unknown type of azoxy compounds in which the diazene oxide fragment is directly connected with the phosphinate group. The method involves reaction of amidoesters of alkyl- and arylphosphonic acids with nitroso compounds in the presence of dibromoisocyanurate.N. D.

Organocatalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of Axially Chiral N,N′-Bisindoles

This study establishes the first organocatalytic enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral N,N′-bisindoles via chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed formal (3+2) cycloadditions of indole-based enaminones as novel platform molecules with 2,3-diketoesters, where de novo indole-ring formation is involved. Using this new strategy, various axially chiral N,N′-bisindoles were synthesized in good yields and with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 87 % yield and 96 % ee). More importantly, this class of axially chiral N,N′-bisindoles exhibited some degree of cytotoxicity toward cancer cells and was derived into axially chiral phosphine ligands with high catalytic activity. This study provides a new strategy for enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral N,N′-bisindoles using asymmetric organocatalysis and is the first to realize the applications of such scaffolds in medicinal chemistry and asymmetric catalysis.

N,N′-Oxalyl-Di-Imidazolide - A New Reagent for the Synthesis of Symmetrical Organic Oxalates

As part of our program to investigate the behavior of pentadianyl radicals, we wished co prepare bis(δ^1,1′ -dicyclohexenyl carbinyl) oxalate (I) and study Its thermal decomposition. Application of the usual methods of oxalate synthesis toward the preparation of I resulted in low or zero yields, those methods involve reaction conditions whereby an acid is used directly in the reaction¹ or is generated during the reaction as a by product². Since we have found I to be sensitive to even trace amounts of acids³, we sought to develop an alternate approach to oxalate synthesis that would avoid adds at all stages.

Synthesis of N‐Glycoside Analogs via Thionolactones

Indolyl N‐glycoside analogs were obtained by a two‐step sequence via indole N‐thioamides. Treatment of thionobutyrolactone with indolylmagnesium bromide provides the corresponding indole N‐thioamide. The use of 10:1 toluene:THF as solvent is important in favoring N‐ over C3‐acylation. Treatment of the ω‐hydroxythioamide with 2 equiv of Meerwein's reagent followed by sodium borohydride gives the corresponding N‐(tetrahydrofuranyl)indole. Addition of carbon nucleophiles gives access to ketose nucleoside analogs, while activation of the ω‐hydroxyl group can give access to tetrahydrothiophene N‐glycosides.
