Reaction of 5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐1,2‐dione ( 1 ) with two equivalents of some 6‐aminouracils (or 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil) generates spirocyclic tetrahydrobenzo[if]quinolizines ( 7 ). The one‐pot, three‐component reaction of amido ketone ( 1 ) with 6‐aminouracil (or 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil) and a cyclic six‐membered 1,3‐diketone produces spirocyclic tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinolinones ( 15 ).     

2,5‐Dimethyl‐6,7‐dihydrobenzo[h]pyrazolo[1,5‐a]quinazoline and 2‐tert‐butyl‐5‐methyl‐6,7‐dihydrobenzo[h]pyrazolo[1,5‐a]quinazoline

In both 2,5‐dimethyl‐6,7‐dihydrobenzo[h]pyrazolo[1,5‐a]quinazoline, C₁₆H₁₅N₃, (I), and 2‐tert‐butyl‐5‐methyl‐6,7‐dihydrobenzo[h]pyrazolo[1,5‐a]quinazoline, C₁₉H₂₁N₃, (II), which crystallizes with Z′ = 2 in the space group P, the non‐aromatic carbocyclic rings adopt screw‐boat conformations. The molecules of (I) are linked into chains of rings by a combination of C—H...N and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds, while in (II) there are no hydrogen bonds of any kind.

5′‐Mercapto‐1′H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3′‐yl‐isoquinolinium salts (6) were synthesised by the reaction of ortho‐acyl phenylacetones (2) or the corresponding pyrylium salts (3) and 5‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione (5) . Treatment of thioles 6 withα,ω‐dibromoalkanes led to type 15, 16 and 17 isoquinolinium salts condensed with thiazole, thiazine and thiazepine rings. When 6 are reacted with dibromomethane (10) 11 type dimeric structures are obtained.     

Synthesis of benzo[b]thieno‐ and benzo[b]furano‐[2,3‐a]pyrrolo[3,4‐c]carbazole‐5‐, ‐7‐ and ‐5,7‐dione

Benzo[b]thieno[2,3‐a]pyrrolo[3,4‐c]carbazoles and benzo[b]furano[2,3‐a]pyrrolo[3,4‐c]carbazoles were prepared from 2‐(2‐benzo[b]thieno)‐ (8) and 2‐(2‐benzo[b]furano)‐3‐[3‐(2,5‐dioxo‐lH‐pyrrolidinyl)]indole (9) by a palladium(II)acetate/tetrachloro‐1,4‐benzoquinone oxidative A‐E ring closure.     

Three‐Component Reaction for Construction of Spiro[indoline‐3,7′‐thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyridines] and Spiro[benzo[4,5]thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyridine‐3,3′‐indolines]

The three‐component reaction of thiazole (benzothiazole), dialkyl but‐2‐ynedioate, and isatinylidene malononitriles in toluene at 110–120°C in a sealed tube afforded a mixture of cis/trans‐isomers of functionalized diastereoisomeric spiro[indoline‐3,7′‐thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyridines] and spiro[benzo[4,5]thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyridine‐3,3′‐indolines] in good yields. Both cis‐isomers and trans‐isomers were successfully separated out and fully characterized with spectroscopy and single crystal determination. Under similar conditions, the three‐component reaction containing 2‐(1,3‐dioxo‐1H‐inden‐2(3H)‐ylidene)malononitrile resulted in spiro[indene‐2,7′‐thiazolo[3,2‐a]pyridine] derivatives.

The substrates 4a – f were prepared through bromination reaction of 5‐tert‐butylisatin ( 3 ) with NBS in PEG‐400 followed by alkylation reaction.

Photochemistry of Spiro[6H‐[1,3]Oxathiin‐2,2′‐tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decan]‐ 6‐one

On irradiation (300 nm) in the solid state, the title compound 8 affords tricyclo[3.3.1.1^3,7]decan‐2‐one (=adamantan‐2‐one; 9 ) selectively via [4+2] cycloreversion. A similar result is obtained on photolysis in solution (MeCN or acetone), also in the presence of added alkenes. On irradiation in MeOH, a solvent adduct 11 is isolated in addition to 9 . From experiments in CD₃OD, it can be inferred that 11 is formed via syn‐addition of MeOH to the ground‐state (E)‐heterocycle 16 .

Several pyrido[2,3‐e]pyrimidine fused with other rings have been prepared by intramolecular cyclization of 5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐2‐hydrazino‐benzo [6,7]cyclohepta‐[1,2‐b]pyrido[2,3‐e]pyrimidine‐4‐one ( 1 ) with acids, carbon disulfide to form triazole derivatives ( 2,4 ), halo‐ketones to give triazine derivative ( 5 ), β‐ketoesters, β‐cyanoesters, and β‐diketones to yield 2‐(1‐pyrazolyl) derivatives ( 7,9,10 ), and aldehydes to form arylhydrazone derivatives ( 11a,b ) which cyclized to form triazoles ( 12a,b ). Also, acyclic N‐nucleosides are prepared by heating under reflux 2‐hydrazino‐benzo[6,7]cyclohepta[1,2‐b]pyrido[2,3‐e] pyrimidin‐4‐one ( 1 ) with xylose and glucose to give the corresponding acyclic N‐nucleosides ( 13a,b ) which are cyclized to afford the corresponding protected tetra and penta–O‐acetate C‐nucleosides ( 14a,b ). Deacetylating of the latter nucleosides afforded the free acyclic C‐nucleosides ( 15a,b ). © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Controlled Self‐Assembly by Mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes and Bis‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes

The complexation‐induced critical aggregation concentrations of 1‐pyrenemethylaminium by mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes and bis‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes (n=4, 5) were systemically measured by fluorescence spectroscopy. In all cases, the complexation‐induced critical aggregation concentration decreases by about 3 times upon addition of p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes. However, the optimal molar ratios for the aggregation of 1‐pyrenemethylaminium by mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes and bis‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes are distinctly different: For mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes, the optimum mixing ratio for the aggregation of 1‐pyrenemethylaminium is 1:4 mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes/1‐pyrenemethylaminium, whereas only 2.5 molecules of 1‐pyrenemethylaminium can be bound by one cavity of bis‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes. The intermolecular complexation of mono‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes and bis‐p‐sulfonatocalix[n]arenes with 1‐pyrenemethylaminium led to the formation of two distinctly different nanoarchitectures, which were shown to be nanoscale vesicle and rod aggregates, respectively, by using dynamic laser scattering, TEM, and SEM. This behavior is also different from the fiber‐like aggregates with lengths of several micrometers that were formed by 1‐pyrenemethylaminium itself above its critical aggregation concentration. Furthermore, the obtained nanoaggregates exhibit benign water solubility, self‐labeled fluorescence, and, more importantly, temperature responsiveness.

catena‐Poly[[[diaquazinc]‐bis{μ‐N2,N6‐bis[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxamide}] dinitrate]

In the title compound, {[Zn(C₁₉H₁₇N₅O₂)₂(H₂O)₂](NO₃)₂}_n, the Zn^II cation is located at an inversion centre within a slightly distorted octahedron, ligated by four N atoms from four N²,N⁶‐bis[(pyridin‐3‐yl)methyl]pyridine‐2,6‐dicarboxamide (L) ligands occupying a plane about the Zn^II atom with the two water O atoms perpendicular to that. In the complex molecule, the bidentate bridging L ligands display helical R and S conformers, and link the Zn^II cations into a one‐dimensional centrosymmetric double‐chain structure containing 32‐membered rings. The nitrate anions reside in these rings and are involved in multiple N—H...O hydrogen‐bond interactions. On excitation at 390 nm, the title compound displays a strong blue emission centred at 449 nm. Investigation of the thermal stability shows that the network structure is stable up to 420 K.
