A novel catalyst-free,eco-friendly,on water protocol for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines

The first greenest methodology for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines on water is described. 1,8-Diamino naphthalene was reacted with different types of aldehydes at room temperature to furnish the product in moderate to excellent yields in 30 min. A multi-gram scale reaction is also performed to ensure the scalability of the reaction.     

A novel catalyst-free mechanochemical protocol for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines

A rapid, efficient, and green grinding assisted method for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines has been developed. 1,8-Diaminonaphthalene and aldehydes were ground using mortar and pestle for 5 minutes affording the product in moderate to excellent yields. The methodology minimises the use of conventional workup and column chromatographic techniques.     

One-pot synthesis of novel 2,3-dihydro-1H-indazoles

A copper(I)-mediated one-pot synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-indazole heterocycles has been developed. This synthetic route provides the desired indazoles in moderate to good yields (55%-72%) which are substantially better than those achievable with an alternative two-step reaction sequence. The reaction is tolerant of functionality on the aromatic ring.     

A facile four-component tandem protocol for the synthesis of novel 2,6-diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyridin-4-ones

A one-pot, four-component reaction of 1-(phenylsulfinyl)- or 1-(4-chlorophenylsulfinyl)propan-2-one, aromatic aldehydes and ammonium acetate in a 1:2:1 molar ratio affords a series of new 2,6-diaryl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyridin-4-ones. This reaction proceeds presumably via a double Mannich reaction-elimination tandem sequence.     

A simple synthesis of 2,2-disubstituted tetrahydrothiophenes

Treatment of diethyl 2-(3-mesyloxypropyl) malonate with KSCOCH₃/DMF at room temperature gave 2,2-dicarbethoxytetrahydrothiophene. The reaction can be used to prepare isopenams in good yield.

     

Microwave-assisted synthesis of novel 2,3-dihydro-4-pyridinones

Novel 2,3-dihydro-4-pyridinones were synthesized via the reaction of curcumin and primary amines or amine acetates under microwave irradiation. Montmorillonite K-10 was used as a catalyst. Reaction times did not exceed 120 s. The structures of the compounds were established by elemental analysis and from their mass, 1H- and 13C-NMR spectra.     

One-pot synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazoles

A convenient one-pot method for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazoles has been elaborated. A set of 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazoles was prepared from various ortho-dialkylaminoanilines and aldehydes using Me3SiCl as a condensation agent and pyridine as a basic medium.     

A new synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted indoles

A novel synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted indoles starting from N-alkyl-N-propvnyl anilines is described. The reactions employed are analogous to the thermal rearrangement of aryl propynyl sulfoxides.     

A one-pot, two step synthesis of 2,2-disubstituted 1-nitroalkenes

The reactions of ketones 1a-o, nitromethane 2, and a stoichiometric amount of piperidine 3a or ethylenediamine 3b in the presence of mercaptan 6a in THF or CH₃CN solution give high yields of β-nitrosulfides 7a-o. The latter can be oxidized by 8a (m-CPBA or m-CPBA/AcOH) at 0°C, 8b (H₂O₂/AcOH), or 8c (H₂O₂) at room temperature, thus generating β-nitroalkylsulfoxides 9a-o, which then undergo elimination to produce medium to high yields of 2,2-disubstituted-1-nitroalkenes 5a-o, when refluxed in a solution of ClCH₂CH₂Cl (1,2-dichloroethane). After preparation from 1a-o, 2, 3, and 6a, 7a-o were oxidized with 8a, 8b, or 8c in a mixture of CH₃CN and ClCH₂CH₂Cl to generate β-nitrosulfoxides 9a-o, which then underwent elimination under refluxing under one-pot conditions. Compounds 14 and 15g were also prepared using 13, 2, 3b, and 6, in a similar manner.     

A novel highly stereoselective synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted 3H-quinazoline-4-one derivatives

[structure: see text]. An efficient three-step synthesis of chiral 3H-quinazoline-4-one derivatives from commercial materials is disclosed. The Mumm reaction of imidoyl chloride with alpha-amino acids followed by reductive cyclization affords enantiomerically pure (ee >93%) quinazoline-4-ones in good overall yield. A comparison with existing approaches indicates that this method is superior for hindered substrates.     

Photochemistry of ethyl 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-3-oxo-1H-pyrrole-1-carboxylate

The title compound 7 is obtained by reductive dehalogenation from 4-bromo-2,3-dihydro-2,2. -dimethyl-3-oxo-1H-pyrrole-1-carboxylate ( 8 ) in 90% yield, Aza-enone 7 undergoes [2 + 2] cycloaddition from the triplet state with both electron-rich and electron-deficient alkenes. The behaviour of 7 in light-induced reactions is compared to those of 2,2-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone ( 1a ) and of the corresponding thiophenone 1b . In the photodimerization and the cycloaddition to either 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene or to dimethyl maleate of these ketonic five-membered heterocycles with one heteroatom, the overall efficiency increases in going from the furan 1a to the thiophene 1b and to the pyrrole 7 .     

A one-pot synthesis of functionalized 2,2-disubstituted 2H-1-benzopyrans

The synthesis of functionalized 2,2-disubstituted 2H-1-benzopyrans was achieved by condensing 2,3,5-trimethylhydroquinone (TMHQ) with ,β-unsaturated aldehydes or ,β-unsaturated acetals under acidic conditions.     

A new entry to the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted indoles

[reaction: see text] The Stille coupling of N-acyl-2-iodoanilines with the 1-(tributylstannyl)-1-substituted allenes affected the successive one-step formation of the 2-methyl-3-substituted indoles. Alternatively, the other type of 2-alkyl-3-substituted indoles could be synthesized in a one-pot operation, which consists of the Stille coupling reaction with the 1-(tributylstannyl)-1,3-disubstituted allenes, followed by TBAF treatment. This procedure could be applied to the synthesis of indomethacin.

2,4-Disubstituted 2,3-dihydro-1H-1,5-benzodiazepines were synthesized by reacting o-phenylenediamine with ,-unsaturated ketones of the indanedione series.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 379–381, March, 1989.     

Use of Vilsmeier reagent for the solid-phase synthesis of 1,5-disubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazoles and disubstituted 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazolylbenzimidazoles

The solid-phase synthesis of novel imidazolines and dihydroimidazolylbenzimidazoles is described. Resin-bound diamines, derived from resin-bound N-acylated amino acid amides, were cyclized using Vilsmeier reagent to yield imidazolines following cleavage. Similarly, cyclization of resin-bound tetraamines having two secondary amines and an o-dianiline yielded dihydroimidazolylbenzimidazoles following cleavage.     

Novel synthesis of 2-aryl and 2,3-disubstituted indoles by modified double elimination protocol

[reaction: see text] Syntheses of 2-aryl and 2,3-substituted indoles were realized by modified double elimination protocol. Under basic conditions, vinyl sulfones derived from the reaction of 2-aminobenzyl sulfone with benzaldehydes underwent cyclization and alkylation followed by elimination of sulfinic acid to afford 2,3-substituted indoles.
