Reactions of Zinc Enolates Formed from 1-Aryl-2-bromo-2-phenylethanone or 2-Bromoindanone and Zinc,with Dimethyl 2-(1-Arylmethylene)malonates

Zinc enolates formed from 1-aryl-2-bromo-2-phenylethanones and zinc react with dimethyl 2-(1-arylmethylene)malonates to afford dimethyl 2-(1,3-diaryl-3-oxo-2-phenylpropyl)malonates. The latter react with cyclohexylamine, piperidine, or morpholine to give the corresponding monosubstituted amides. The zinc enolate derived from 2-bromoindanone and zinc reacts with dimethyl 2-(4-bromobenzylidene)malonate, yielding dimethyl 2-[(4-bromophenyl)(1-oxoindan-2-yl)methyl]malonate. The final products largely form as a single diastereomer.

Peroxy-Containing Acetylenic Alcohols and Ethers Derived from 4-Methoxybenzophenone and 1- and 2-Acetonaphthones

A procedure was suggested for the synthesis of 2,5-dimethyl-2-tert-alkylperoxy-5-lithiooxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-5-naphthyl(aryl)alk-3-ynes by the reactions of the corresponding monosubstituted peroxyalkynes with butyllithium, followed by the reactions of the resulting lithium peroxy acetylenides with 4-methoxybenzophenone and 1- and 2-acetonaphthones. Lithium peroxy alcoholates are hydrolyzed with water to form peroxy-containing alcohols and react with methyl iodide in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide to form the corresponding 2,5-dimethyl-2-tert-alkylperoxy-5-methoxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-5-naphthyl(aryl)alk-3-ynes.

Synthesis of 2-Functionalized 4-(Diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-5-(1-bromoalkyl)furans and Their Reactions with Amines

Phosphorylation of esters and nitriles of 4-chloromethyl-5-alkylfuran-2-carboxylic acids with triethyl phosphite yields the corresponding phosphonates. These compounds are brominated with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride at the α-position of the alkyl radical. The resulting 2-(1-bromoethyl)-, 2-(1-bromopropyl)-, and 2-(1-bromoisobutyl)furans react with secondary amines following the scheme of nucleophilic substitution. The dehydrobromination product was isolated only in the reaction of ethyl 4-(diethoxyphosphorylmethyl)-5-(1-bromoisopropyl)furan-2-carboxylate with triethylamine, but its yield was low. The reactions of bromo phosphonates with lithium carbonate in DMF result in their decomposition.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 5, 2005, pp. 820–828.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Pevzner.     

Reactions of dimethyl and di-tert-butyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates with difunctional nucleophiles

The nature of the alkyl group in the ester moieties of dimethyl and di-tert-butyl 2-aryl-4-hydroxy-4-methyl-6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates affects the direction of their reactions with difunctional nucleophiles. The dimethyl esters react with hydrazine hydrate to give the corresponding tetrahydroindazoles, while their tert-butyl analogs are converted under similar conditions into 6-hydrazones. Reactions of both dimethyl and di-tert-butyl 6-oxocyclohexane-1,3-dicarboxylates with hydroxylamine lead to formation of 6-hydroxyimino derivatives.Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 74, No. 10, 2004, pp. 1687–1691.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by V.
