Synthesis of 5-(perfluoroalkylmethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-4-ones

Acid catalysed condensation of F-alkyl α-hydroxy acids with simple aldehydes or ketones gave F-alkyl 1,3-dioxolan-4-ones. When BF₃,OEt₂ was used as the catalyst, the condensation products were obtained in moderate to good yields and the “cis” isomers are largely favoured, while with HOTs/H₂SO₄ as catalyst, poor yields and lower stereoselectivities were observed.

Reduction of n-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1-methylpyridinium ions: Molecular structure of the 4-(l,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine-borane complex

The reduction of the n-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1-methylpyridinium ions with sodium borohydride has been studied to prepare N-methylformylpiperidines. Deuterium oxide was used as the solvent in order to assign the protons in the nmr spectra. As a product of the reaction, the 4-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahy-dropyridine-borane complex, was isolated and crystallized. A X-ray study of this borane complex has been carried out.     

Synthesis and antiemetic activity of 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives

5-HT₃ receptor antagonists, such as Ondansetron, are used for anti-emesis after chemotherapy, radiotherapy and operations. Some Ondansetron analogs possessing piperazine ring as side chains were synthesized in our lab. Thus, one of the two carbonyl groups of starting material 1,3-cyclohexandione (1) was condensed with phenylhydrazine hydrochloride to form monophenylhydrazone (2). 1,2,3,9-Tetrahydro-4H-carbazol-4-one (3) was prepared from 2 via cyclization and rearranged in the presence of ZnCl₂. Through a methylation reaction, compound 3 was converted to 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-4H-carbazol-4-one (4). 3-Dimethylaminomethyl substituted compound (5) was synthesized from 4 by a Mannich reaction in glacial acetic acid. Nine novel 1,2,3,9-tetrahydro-9-methyl-3-(4-substituted-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-4H-carbazol-4-one derivatives (6a–6i) were synthesized through nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5 with piperazines. The structures of all the target compounds were determined by elemental analysis, IR, MS, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectra. The results of preliminary pharmacological test show that part of the novel compounds have antiemetic activity comparable to that of the control Ondansetron. __________ Translated from Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2008, 28(2) (in Chinese)     

Radioiodination of 4-benzyl-1-(3-iodobenzylsulfonyl)piperidine, 4-(3-iodobenzyl)-1-(benzylsulfonyl)piperazine and their derivatives via isotopic and non-isotopic exchange reactions

A mild and simple technique for preparing of 4-benzyl-1-(3-[¹²⁵I]iodobenzylsulfonyl)piperidine, 4-(3-[¹²⁵I]iodobenzyl)-1-(benzylsulfonyl)piperazine and their derivatives, as sigma-1 receptor ligands, with relatively high radiochemical yields via nucleophilic substitution reaction by means of isotopic and non-isotopic exchange reactions is described. Some factors affecting the radiochemical yield were commonly studied in presence of acidic medium at elevated temperature. Unfortunately, the radiochemical yields were weak. Some attempts were carried out in presence of polar aprotic solvents to enhance the radiochemical yield. N,N-Dimethylformamide was proved highly efficient for preparing of radioiodinated 4-benzyl-1-(3-iodobenzylsulfonyl)piperidine (4-B-[¹²⁵I]-IBSP, 70 ± 5.7 %) and 4-(3-iodobenzyl)-1-(benzylsulfonyl)piperazine (4-[¹²⁵I]-IBBSPz, 72 ± 6.0 %) at moderate temperature (100–105 °C) within 8 h. The specific activities of 4-B-[¹²⁵I]-IBSP and 4-[¹²⁵I]-IBBSPz (6,534.2 and 5,927.4 MBq/mmol) were obtained respectively.     

Synthesis and mesomorphic properties of 7-acyloxy-3-(4-acyloxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one

A new homologous series of 7-acyloxy-3-(4-acyloxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-ones was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques along with thermal behaviour study using differential scanning calorimetry. Texture observation was performed under the polarizing optical microscope from which the derivatives were found to exhibit different molecular organizations as exemplified by various mesophases. Whilst the compounds containing butanoyloxy and hexanoyloxy groups behave as nematogens, the other compounds with heptanoyloxy and longer side chains show a SmC phase. The octadecanoyloxy derivative was the only member showing a monotropic SmC phase. The difference in phase behaviour is discussed based on the molecular structure and the presence of a lateral dipole which can be associated with the intermolecular interaction within the mesophase.
