Ozonolysis of geraniol-trans, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal: kinetics and mechanisms

A combined density functional theory and transition-state theory study of the mechanisms and reaction coefficients of gas-phase ozonolysis of geraniol-trans, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal is presented. The geometries, energies, and harmonic vibrational frequencies of each stationary point were determined by B3LYP/6-31(d,p), MPW1K/cc-pVDZ, and BH&HLYP/cc-pVDZ methods. According to the calculations, the ozone 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one reaction is faster than the ozone 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal reaction, but both are slower than the ozone geraniol-trans reaction. By using the BH&HLYP/cc-pVDZ data, a global rate coefficient of 5.9 x 10(-16) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) was calculated, corresponding to the sum of geraniol-trans, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and 6-hydroxy-4-methyl-4-hexenal reactions with the ozone. These results are in good agreement with the experimental studies.     

Gas-phase reaction of ozone with trans-2-hexenal,trans-2-hexenyl acetate,ethylvinyl ketone,and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one

The gas-phase reaction of ozone with the unsaturated oxygenates trans-2-hexenal, trans-2-hexenyl acetate, ethylvinyl ketone, and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, which are components of biogenic emissions and/or close structural homologues thereof, has been investigated at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature (286–291 K) and humidity (RH = 55 ± 10%). Reaction rate constants, in units of 10⁻¹⁸ cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹, are 1.28 ± 0.28 for trans-2-hexenal, 21.8 ± 2.8 for trans-2-hexenyl acetate, and 394 ± 40 for 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one. Carbonyl product formation yields, measured with sufficient cyclohexane added to scavenge the hydroxyl radical, are 0.53 ± 0.06 for n-butanal and 0.56 ± 0.04 for glyoxal from trans-2-hexenal, 0.47 ± 0.02 for n-butanal and 0.58 ± 0.14 for 1-oxoethyl acetate from trans-2-hexenyl acetate, 0.55 ± 0.07 for formaldehyde and 0.44 ± 0.03 for 2-oxobutanal from ethylvinyl ketone, and 0.28 ± 0.02 for acetone from 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one. Reaction mechanisms are outlined and the atmospheric persistence of the compounds studied is briefly discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

(5-Acetyl-6-hydroxy-3-methylbenzofuran-2-carbonyl)-chromene-2-one, paraformaldehyde, and morpholine furnished the mannich base 3-[6-hydroxy 3-methyl-5-(3-morpholin-4-yl-propionyl)-benzofuran-2 carbonyl]-chromen-2-one.This mannich base is irradiated with various chloro-substituted amines afforded 3-[6-(2-amino-ethoxy)-3-methyl-5-(3-morpholin-4-yl-propionyl)-benzofuran-2 carbonyl]-chromen-2-one in good yields.     

Brominated derivatives of 4-hydroxy- and 4-methoxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-ones

Twenty-five different brominated derivatives of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone (triacetic acid lactone) and 3-acetyl-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone (dehydroacetic acid) have been prepared. Fifteen derivatives have not been previously described and the preparations of a few known products have been improved. Bromination at C-3, C-5, methyl group at C-6 and deacetylations at C-3 have been the types of reactions used.     

Structure and chemistry of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone

The structure of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone formed by the reaction of 6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione and ammonia is characterized. A method is discussed for the structure determination of pyridone type compounds. Reaction of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone with an equivalent amount of benzenesulfonyl chloride gives 4-benzenesulfonyloxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone. With two equivalent amounts of benzenesulfonyl chloride, 2,4-dibenzenesulfonyloxy-6-picoline is formed. 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone is preferentially attacked by electrophiles at the 3 position.     

Reaction of dialkyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates with aliphatic amines

Benzylamine, phenethylamine, and homoveratrylamine reacted with dialkyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates at the endocyclic carbonyl group with conservation of the enolic hydroxy group to give dialkyl 4-alkylamino-2-aryl-6-hydroxy-6-methylcyclohex-3-ene-1,3-dicarboxylates. The reaction of dimethyl 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxo-2-phenylcyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylate with tryptamine was accompanied by dehydration with formation of dimethyl 4-[2-(1H-indol-3-yl)ethylamino]-6-methyl-2-phenylcyclohexa-3,5-diene-1,3-dicarboxylate, presumably due to basic properties of the indole nitrogen atom.     

Reactivity of 4-azido- and 4-amino-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one. Preparation of 1-(6-methyl-2-oxopyran-4-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles and 5-oxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridines

1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of stable 4-azido-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one 1 with electron-rich alkenes and alkynes lead to 4,5-substituted 1-(6-methyl-2-oxopyran-4-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles. Iminophosphoranes derived from 1 have also been synthesized. 5-Oxopyrano[4,3-b]pyridines are prepared by reaction of 4-amino-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one 2 with β-dicarbonyl compounds.     

An approach to acyclo-1-deazathymidine c-nucleosides via 3,5-dichloro-6-methyl-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-one.

An approach to the synthesis of acyclo-1-deazathymidine nucleosides is described. Diels-Alder reaction of 3,5-dichloro-6-methyl-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-one with acetylenic compounds 4 and 5 yielded the 3-[(tetrahydropyran-2-yl)oxy]-methyl- and 3-bromomethyl-5-methyl-2,6-dichloropyridine intermediates 7 and 8. The bromomethyl group of compound 8 underwent easy substitution with the appropriate nucleophiles, permitting the introduction of acycLo sugar moieties. The resulting 3-substituted 2,6-dichloro-5-methyl pyridines 9a,b - precursors for some acyclo pyridine-C-nucleosides - were treated with sodium phenylmethoride to afford 2,6-dibenzyloxypyridines 10a,b. Debenzylation using a palladium-strontium carbonate catalyst gave the unstable C-nucleosides 2a,b of the 6-hydroxy-1H-pyridin-2-one type. A stable 6-hydroxy-1H-pyridin-2-one 2c, exempt from benzylic oxygen, was obtained via cycloaddition of THP-protected 6-hydroxy-1-hexyne.     

Novel,Simple, and Efficient Synthesis of 3-(2-(5-(Benzylideneamino)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one Derivatives via a One-Pot,Four-Component Condensation Reaction

The synthesis of 3-(2-(5-(benzylideneamino)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)thiazol-4-yl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one derivatives was achieved through a one-pot, four-component reaction involving condensation of 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one, thiosemicarbazide, phenacylcyanaide, and various aryl aldehydes in dry alcohol and few drops of acetic acid under reflux condition. This four-component reaction has some advantages such as ease of handling, good yields, and easy workup. All structures of newly prepared compounds were confirmed by analytical and spectral data.     

1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of arylnitrile oxides and 2-diazopropane with 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-one derivatives

The reactions of arylnitrile oxides 2 and 2-diazopropane 5 with 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-one derivatives 1 have been studied. 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of arylnitrile oxides and 2-diazopropane with 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-one derivatives is taking place regiospecifically. The asymmetric induction expected by the chiral centre of the 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-one derivatives was very effective, diastereoisomers 3 and 4 were formed in an approximate 90:10 ratio. The stereoselectivity of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the 2-diazopropane with the 5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,5-dihydropyrrol-2-one derivatives are investigated. The attack of the 1,3-dipole occurred from the less hindered face of the dipolarophile, giving the isomer 6.     

Novel heterocycles. Synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide and related compounds

The reaction of 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoyl chloride ( 5 ) with 1-methyl-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 4 ) gave the O-benzoyl compound, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzoate ( 6 ), which rearranged to give the C-benzoyl isomer, [2-chloro-4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl] (4-hydroxy-1-mefhyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3-yl)methanone ( 7 ). The O-cinnamoyl compound 13 that resulted from the addition of 2,4-dichlorocinnamoyl chloride ( 11 ) to compound 4 rearranged to give the C-cinnamoyl compound, 3-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-(4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-3yl)-2-propen-1-one ( 15 ). On the other hand, 1-methyl-2,2-dioxido-1H-2,1-benzothiazin-4-yl 3-phenyl-2-propenoate ( 19 ) (from cinnamoyl chloride ( 17 ) and compound 4 ) rearranged to give 2,3-dihydro-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H,6H-pyrano[3,2-c][2,1]benzothiazin-4-one 5,5-dioxide ( 21 ), an example of a hitherto unknown ring system. Additional examples of this novel heterocycle were prepared from 1-methyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrido[2,3-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 23 ) and 1-methyl-1H-thieno[3,2-c][1,2]thiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide ( 8 ).     

Studies of the gas phase reactions of linalool, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol with O3 and OH radicals

The reactions of three unsaturated alcohols (linalool, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol, and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol) with ozone and OH radicals have been studied using simulation chambers at T ～ 296 K and P ～ 760 Torr. The rate coefficient values (in cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1)) determined for the three compounds are linalool, k(O3) = (4.1 ± 1.0) × 10(-16) and k(OH) = (1.7 ± 0.3) × 10(-10); 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol, k(O3) = (3.8 ± 1.2) × 10(-16) and k(OH) = (1.0 ± 0.3) × 10(-10); and 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol, k(O3) = (5.2 ± 0.6) × 10(-18) and k(OH) = (6.2 ± 1.8) × 10(-11). From the kinetic data it is estimated that, for the reaction of O(3) with linalool, attack at the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group represents around (93 ± 52)% (k(6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol)/k(linalool)) of the overall reaction, with reaction at the R-CH═CH(2) group accounting for about (1.3 ± 0.5)% (k(3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol)/k(linalool)). In a similar manner it has been calculated that for the reaction of OH radicals with linalool, attack of the OH radical at the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group represents around (59 ± 18)% (k(6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol)/k(linalool)) of the total reaction, while addition of OH to the R-CH═CH(2) group is estimated to be around (36 ± 6)% (k(3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol)/k(linalool)). Analysis of the products from the reaction of O(3) with linalool confirmed that addition to the R-CH═C(CH(3))(2) group is the predominant reaction pathway. The presence of formaldehyde and hydroxyacetone in the reaction products together with compelling evidence for the generation of OH radicals in the system indicates that the hydroperoxide channel is important in the loss of the biradical [(CH(3))(2)COO]* formed in the reaction of O(3) with linalool. Studies on the reactions of O(3) with the unsaturated alcohols showed that the yields of secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) are higher in the absence of OH scavengers compared to the yields in their presence. However, even under low-NO(X) concentrations, the reactions of OH radicals with 3-methyl-1-penten-3-ol and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol will make only a minor contribution to SOA formation under atmospheric conditions. Relatively high yields of SOAs were observed in the reactions of OH with linalool, although the initial concentrations of reactants were quite high. The importance of linalool in the formation of SOAs in the atmosphere requires further investigation. The impact following releases of these unsaturated alcohols into the atmosphere are discussed.     

Synthesis of N-substituted 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridones and -pyridonimines

Carbohydrates with 1,4 glycosidic bonds like maltose, lactose, dextrin or starch react with primary amines as well as amino acids or proteins to give i.e. 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridones 5 and 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridonimines 7. A generally applicable synthesis of compounds of this type is described. The pyridones 5 and pyridonimines 7 are strongly complexing agents. Molybdenum-derivatives, for instance, are suitable as fairly stable oxidation catalysts.     

Reactions of regioisomeric 3,3-dimethyl- and 2,2-dimethyl-6-trifluoromethyl-2,3-dihydro-4-pyrones with N-nucleophiles

The same compounds were obtained from 2-amino-1,1,1-trifluoro-6-hydroxy-6-methylhept-2(Z)-en-4-one and 2-hydroxy-6, 6-dimethyl-2-trifluoromethyltetrahydro-4-pyrone.     

Reaction of Aminobenzimidazoles with 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone and 4-Hydroxycoumarine

6- and 7-(4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-oxo-1-pyridyl)benzimidazoles and 1-(6- and 7-benzimidazolyl)-4-hydroxy-2-oxoquinolines were synthesized by reaction of aminobenzimidazoles with 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyrone and 4-hydroxycoumarine.     

Steroidal analogues of unnatural configuration—VII : Total synthesis of 17β-hydroxy-9-methyl-9β, 10α-oestr-4-en-3-one,a novel retrotestosterone isomer

Conjugate methylation of 17β-hydroxy-des-a-oestr-9-en-5-one (1) and the derived 4,5-seco-steroid (6b) afforded the respective 9β-methyl compounds. Base-catalysed alkylation of 17β-hydroxy-9-methyl-des-a-9/gb-oestran-5-one (3a) resulted in attack at C(6); this result was used to prepare the anthrasteroid (5). Ring closure of the 9β-methyl-4,5-seco-steroid (8) derived from 6b afforded 17β-hydroxy-9-methyl-9β,10α-oestr-4-en-3-one (9a). Conjugate methylation of 17β-hydroxyoestra-4,9-dien-3-one (11) resulted in 1,4-addition to the dienone system.     

Cross-condensation of derivatives of cyanoacetic acid and carbonyl compounds. 2. One-pot synthesis of substituted 2-amino-7-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrano[4,3-b]pyrans in ethanol and ionic liquid [bmim][PF6]

The three-component reaction of 4-hydroxy-6-methylpyran-2(2H)-one with cyanoacetic acid derivatives and carbonyl compounds in EtOH or in the ionic liquid, viz., 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolinium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim][PF₆]), affords substituted 2-amino-7-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrano[4,3-b]pyrans. The yield of substituted pyrano[4,3-b]pyrans in [bmim][PF₆] is by 10—14% higher than that in EtOH.
