SYNTHESIS AND REACTIONS OF 2,3-DIHYDRO- 5-ARYL-5H,6H-THIAZOLO[3,2-b]-2,4-DIAZAFLUORENE-3,6-DIONES OF POTENTIAL BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES

Abstract

1,2,3,4-Tetrahydro-l-aryl-3,9-dioxo-2,4-diazafluorenes (2) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-aryl-9-oxo-3-thi-oxo-2,4-diazafluorenes (3) were newly synthesized. Compounds 3 reacted with chloroacetic acid, α-bromopropanoic acid, or B-bromopropanoic acid in the presence of fused sodium acetate and acetic anhydride to give 2,3-dihydro-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (4), 2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (5) and 2,3-dihydro-6-aryl-6H,7H-thiazino[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-4,7-diones (6), respectively.

2,3-Dihydro-2-arylmethylene-5-aryl-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (7) were prepared by the reaction of compounds (3) with chloroacetic acid and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of fused sodium acetate and acetic anhydride or by the reactions of (4) with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of acetic anhydride.

2-(Arylhydroazono)-5-aryl-2,3-dihydro-5H,6H-thiazolo[3,2-b]2,4-diazafluorene-3,6-diones (8) were synthesized by coupling (4) with aryldiazonium salts in the presence of pyridine.     

A New Route for the Synthesis of Substituted Pyridazines

Condensation of 4‐acetyl‐5,6‐diphenyl‐2,3‐dihydropyridzin‐3‐one (1) with dimethylformamide dimethylacctal (DMFDMA) afforded the enaminone 2. This could be converted into the pyrazolylpyridazine derivative 4 on reaction with hydrazine hydrate and into pyridazinylpyridazinone 7a,b via coupling with aromatic diazonium salts and subsequent treatment with active methylene compounds. The reaction of 6 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of triphenylphosphine afforded the pyridazinylpyridazine derivative 8. Compound 1 converted into 9 upon reflux in acetic acid in the presence of ammonium acetate and afforded 10 on reflux in acetic acid.     

The Production of Threose as a Degradation Product from L-Ascorbic Acid

Abstract

In order to examine the nature of in. vivo Maillard reactions that involve L-ascorbate and proteins, rates of formation of threose from L-ascorbic acid (1), dehydro-L-ascorbic acid (2), and 2,3-diketo-L-gulonic acid (3) were measured in the presence and absence of oxygen at pH 7.0 (phosphate buffer) and at 37 °C. Threose is produced in measurable quantities from L-ascorbate only in the presence of oxygen. Compounds 2 and 3 both give rise to threose in both the presence and absence of oxygen. Compound 3 gives threose at a faster rate and in higher amounts than 1 or 2, suggesting that it is the primary source of threose in this reaction. Incubations of dehydro-L-ascorbate with N^a -acetyl-L-lysine in the presence of cyanoborohydride gave N^a -acetyl-N^e -(1-deoxy-L-threitol-l-yl)-L-lysine which was chemically synthesized (from threose and N'-acetyl-L-lysine) and unequivocally characterized. The data suggest that the Maillard reaction observed when L-ascorbic acid is incubated with protein may well arise as a result of interactions of L-threose with amino groups, and that the function of oxygen in the reaction is to convert 1 into the more reactive 2. and 3. Oxygen does not appear to be necessary for the further degradation of 2 or 3.     

Nouvelle Synthese Des 2-Thioxoethylphosphonates, 2- mercaptovinylphosphonates, 2-Phosphoryl-3-thioxopropanoates, 2-Thiomethylvinylphosphonates, 2-Thioethoxycarbonylmethylvinylphosphonates

The cyanomethylphosphonates 1 and the ethyl phosphoacetates 2 were reacted with some fluorophenylisothiocyanates to give the 2-thioxoethylphosphonates 3 in tautomeric equilibrium with the corresponding 2-mercaptovinylphosphonates 3 ′ and the 2-phosphoryl-3-thioxopropanoates 4 , respectively. Reaction of the cyanomethylphosphonates 1 with fluorophenylisothiocyanates in presence of methyliodide furnished the 2- thiometylvinylphosphonates 5 . The 2-mercaptovinylphosphonates 3 ′ reacted with ethyl chloroacetate in refluxing ethanol in the presence of triethylamine to give S-substitued derivatives 6 .     

Novel Synthesis of a Macromonomer Having Organosilyl and Amino Groups

Abstract

Reaction between dimethyldivinylsilane (1) and N,N′-diethyl-N-lithio-ethylenediamine (2a) in the presence of N,N′-diethylethylenediamine (3a) in THF at 20°C gave a monoadduct, 3,3-dimethyl-6-ethyl-3-sila-6,9-diaza-1-undecene (4a). An anionic self-polyaddition reaction of 4a in the presence of lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) proceeded to form oligomers. Each of the oligomers thus obtained was found to carry a polymerizable vinylsilane moiety at the oligomer chain terminal. As a result, a new type of macromonomer having alternating repeating units of ethylenediamine and organosilyl groups was synthesized. Acid-base titration showed the macromonomer to have unique characteristics on protonation of diamine moieties. Anionic polyaddition reactions between 1 and N-lithio-piperazine (2b) in the presence of piperazine (3b) also gave a macromonomer consisting of alternating repeating units of piperazine and organosilyl groups (4b). Radical copolymerizations of styrene with 5b gave comblike graft copolymers.     

A Microwave Assisted Diazo Coupling Reaction: The Synthesis of Alkylazines and Thienopyridazines

Heating diazoaminobenzene with active methylene compounds 1–3 in microwave oven in acetic acid, in the presence of hydrochloric acid, afforded the corresponding arylhydrazones 5–7. These reaction products were condensed with ethyl cyanoacetate in a domestic microwave oven after 1–2 minutes heating to yield the pyridazinones 8–12. Compounds 8c and 12 reacted with sulfur in basic DMF solution, in microwave oven using MORE technology to yield the thienopyridazinone 14 and 16 respectively. While 17 was produced when 8b was treated like wise with sulfur and DMF in the presence of piperidine. Compounds 16 coupled with aromatic diazonium salts to yield arylazo derivatives 21a–c.     

Junjappa–Ila (JI) Heteroaromatic Annulation: A New General α‐Oxoketene Dithioacetals Mediated Inverse Method for Synthesis of Substituted Benzothiazoles

3‐(Methylthio)‐5‐oxo‐2‐(2‐phenyl‐1,3‐thiazol‐4‐yl)‐4,5‐substituted‐pent‐2‐enenitriles 3a–j were obtained in good yields by condensation of (2‐phenyl‐1,3‐thiazol‐4‐yl)‐acetonitrile (1) with various α‐oxoketene dithioacetals 2a–j in the presence of sodium hydride. The intermediates 3a–j underwent smooth cyclization in the presence of PTSA to afford the corresponding benzothiazoles 4a–j in moderate yields.     

Facile Synthesis of Diethyl Azodicarboxylate and Diethylhydrazodicarboxylate via the Sequential Bromination and Hofmann-Type Rearrangement of Ethyl Allophanate

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) is a well-known coupling reagent that can be readily synthesized from diethylhydrazodicarboxylate (DEHD). The bromination of commercially available ethyl allophanate (1) in CHCl₃, followed by the Hofmann-type rearrangement reaction of the resulting N-brominated species 2 and 3 in C₂H₅OH in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU), gave DEHD in good yield from a one-pot process. Interestingly, however, the bromination and Hofmann-type rearrangement reactions did not occur in the presence of N(C₂H₅)₃. These results therefore suggest that this reaction is reliant upon a high level of reactivity during the bromination reaction to give 2 and 3, and that these N-brominated species require the presence of a strong and nonnucleophilic base to undergo the Hofmann-type rearrangement to give DEHD.     

Esters of jasmorange oxime

The aldehyde jasmorange (1) was converted to the oxime (2), acylation of which by alkylcarboxylic acid anhydrides in the presence of HClO₄ or by acid chlorides in the presence of pyridine synthesized esters of jasmorange oxime 3–24 in 82–91% yields. Refluxing 3–24 in hexane converted them quantitatively into nitrile 25. __________ Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 307–310, July–August, 2007.

Condensation of 4-chloro-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehydes and ethyl-3-aminocrotonates with p-TsOH: a facile approach for the synthesis of chromenyldihydropyridines

The investigated reaction of 4-chloro-2H-chromene-3-carbaldehyde 1a with ethyl 3-oxobutanoate 2a in the presence of ammonium acetate provided two compounds, 2H-chromenyldihydropyridine dicarboxylate 3a and chromenopyridine carboxylate 4a. However, the reaction of 1a with ethyl-3-aminocrotonate 5a in the presence of p-TsOH provided selectively 2H-chromenyldihydropyridine dicarboxylate 3a with very good yield. The established method was applied for the preparation of series of 2H-chromenyldihydropyridine dicarboxylates 3a–q.

Synthesis,structural characterization,and anion interactions of new triazole-linked urea derivative fully substituted cyclotriphosphazene compounds

Three novel fully substituted urea derivative cyclotriphosphazene compounds 5–7 were synthesized by alkyne-azide 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of propargyl substituted ureas 2–4 with hexaazide substituted cyclotriphosphazene 1 in the presence of Cu(I) catalyst. All compounds were characterized with spectroscopic techniques such as FT-IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectroscopy. Also, the usefulness of compounds 5–7 as anion carriers was investigated by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. For this purpose, ¹H NMR spectra of compounds 5–7 were recorded in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride in DMSO-d₆. It was determined, that the urea protons in the compounds interact with fluoride.     

Reactions of diazoalkanes with unsaturated compounds. 14. Reactions of diazomethane,diazocyclopropane, and methyl diazoacetate with 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-3-vinylcyclobutane and 2,3,3-trifluoro-1-vinylcyclobutene to form [3+2] and [1+2] cycloadducts

The reactions of diazomethane and diazocyclopropane generated in situ with 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-3-vinylcyclobutane (1) and 2,3,3-trifluoro-1-vinylcyclobutene (2) proceeded at the double bond of the substituent as the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to form the corresponding 1-pyrazolines. Under the conditions of thermolysis (340—400 °C), the resulting cyclobutylpyrazolines 4 and 5 selectively lost the dinitrogen molecule to generate 3-cyclopropyl-1,1,2,2-tetrafluorocyclobutane (6) or 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-3-spiropentylcyclobutane (7), respectively, in high yields. In the presence of Pd(acac)₂, the reactions of these fluorine-containing unsaturated compounds and 2-chloro-1,1,2-trifluoro-3-vinylcyclobutane (3) with diazomethane gave rise directly to cyclopropane derivatives 6, 11, and 12, respectively. The reactions of compounds 1 and 2 with methyl diazoacetate in the presence of Rh₂(OAc)₄ proceeded analogously to yield cis- and trans-disubstituted cyclopropanes.

Synthetic Access to New Pyridone Derivatives through the Alkylation Reactions of Hydroxypyridines with Epoxides

General methods for the preparation of a variety of pyridone and oxypyridine derivatives are described. 2‐,3‐,4‐Hydroxy pyridine and 2‐pyridinemethanol were alkylated with ethylene‐, propylene‐, and stryrene‐oxide and epichlorohydrin in the presence of different Lewis acids as a catalyst. The best yield of 3a was achieved in the presence of CdI₂/BF₃ · OEt₂. The corresponding pyridone derivatives (3a–d, 7a–d) were obtained from the reaction of 2‐and 4‐hydroxypyridine with oxiranes in good yields, whereas oxypyridine derivatives (5a–d, 9a,b) were obtained from reactions of 3‐hydroxypyridine and 2‐pyridinemethanol with oxiranes. Chlorohydrines (3d, 5d, 7d) were easily converted to corresponding epoxy derivatives (10, 11, 12) in basic medium; then amino alcohols (13–17) were obtained from the reaction of these epoxy derivatives with amines.
