Investigations of 2,3′-biquinolyl. 8. Reduction of 1-alkyl-3-(2-quinolyl)-quinolinium halides with sodium borohydride

Reduction of 1-alkyl-3-(2-quinolyl)quinolinium halides with sodium borohydride leads to 1-alkyl-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls which, except for the ethoxycarbonyl derivative, undergo rearrangement to 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls. The last can be synthesized by the alkylation of the corresponding 1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls under conditions of interphase catalysis and in the system KOH-DMSO.For Communication 7, see [1].Stavropol' State University, Stavropol' 355009, Russia; nauka@stavsu.ru.

Coumarins of Smyrniopsis aucheri

Chemical transformations and spectral characteristics have enabled us to establish the structure and configurations of three coumarins: (+)-2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydropyrano(5,6:6,7)coumarin (I); (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)coumarin (II); and (+)-4-hydroxy-5-(1-glucopyranosyloxy-1-methylethyl)-4,5-dihydrofuro(2,3:6,7)-coumarin (III) isolated from the roots ofSmyrnopsis aucheri Karjag. This is the first time that these compounds, which have been called smyrinol, smyrindiol, and smyrindioloside, have been detected in nature.Institute of Chemistry of Plant Substances, Uzbekistan Republic Academy of Sciences, Tashkent.

Investigations in the field of oxygen-containing heterocycles

2-(4-Chloro-2-methyl-2-butenyl)tetrahydropyran and 2-(4-chloro2, 3-dimethyl-2-butenyl)tetrahydropyran react with organomagnesium compounds and also with sodium amalgam with the formation of mixtures of the 2-(2-alkenyl)tetrahydropyrans corresponding to the initial chlorides and the 2-(3-alkenyl)tetrahydropyrans corresponding to the allyl isomers of the initial chlorides. The structure and composition of the products have been established by IR and NMR spectroscopy and by gas-liquid chromatography.For part V, see [1].     

1,1′,2,2′,6,6′-Hexaphenyl-4,4′-bipyridinium cation radical

Aniline reacts with 2,2,6,6-tetraphenyl-4,4-bipyrilium perchlorate to form 1,1,2,2,6,6-hexaphenyl-4,4-bipyridine perchlorate. A relatively stable cation radical is formed in the first stage of electrochemical reduction of this compound, which has been examined by ESR, where there are splittings from two nitrogen nuclei and the four protons in the 3,3,5,5 positions: a_N=0.38; a_H=0.14 mT.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, No. 1, pp. 61–64, January–February 1992.     

1,1′-Disubstituted 2,2′-di(n-perfluoropropyl)-5,5′-bibenzimidazolyls

The synthesis of 4,4-di(methylamino)- and 4,4-dianilino-3,3-diaminobiphenyls is described. The condensation of the tetraaminobiphenyls mentioned with phenyl perfluorobutyrate has given, respectively, 1,1-dlmethyl- and 1,1-diphenyl-2,2-(n-perfluoropropyl)-5, 5-bibenzimidazolyls. A study of the thermal stability of the 2-perfluoroalkylbenzimidazoles has shown that the replacement of the hydrogen of the imino group in these compounds by a methyl or a phenyl radical considerably increases their heat stability.

Chlorination of the title compound gave 5- and 3-chloro-2-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxyacetophenone.
