Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Antimicrobial Activity of Ethyl 2-（1-cyclohexyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl）-2-oxoacetate

A novel 1,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,3-triazole(C18H21N3O3) was synthesized by a one-pot three component reaction of 1-azidocyclohexane, 1-copper(I) phenylethyne and ethoxalyl chloride at room temperature. The molecular structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 12.8167(9), b = 8.0966(6), c = 16.7079(9) , β = 98.716(2)o, Z = 4 and V = 1713.8(2). In the crystal, the molecules are related by inversion and paired into dimers via C–H···O and C–O···C interactions involving(oxo) acetate groups. Furthermore, X-ray analysis results are compared with the optimized structure computed by using B3 LYP method with 6-311 G basis set. The calculated results showed that optimized geometry can well reproduce the crystal structure parameters. The bioassay results indicate that the compound has good antibacterial and antifungal activities.     

Synthesis and Chiroptical Properties of Poly[N-(4-N′-(α-Methylbenzyl)-Aminocarbonylphenyl)-Mamaleimide]

Abstract

Radical homopolymerization of N-[4-N′-(α-methylbenzyl)-aminocarbonylphenyl]maleimide ((S)-MBCP) was carried out at 50 and 70°C for 24 h to give optically active polymers ([α]²⁵ _D = 159.8 to 163.4°). Radical copolymerizations of (S)-MBCP (M₁) were performed with styrene (ST, M₂, methyl methacrylate (MMA, M²) in THF at 50°C. The monomer reactivity ratios (r ₁, r ₂) and the Alfrey-Price Q, e values were determined as follows: r ₁ = 0.32, r ₂= 0.14, Q ₁ = 1.74, e ₁ = 0.96 in the (S)-MBCP-ST system; r ₁ = 0.54, r ₂ = 0.93, Q ₁ = 1.11, e ₁ = 1.23 in the (S)-MBCP-MMA system. Chiroptical properties of the polymers and the copolymers were also investigated, and asymmetric induction into the copolymer main chain is discussed.

Special Reactions of α,β-Unsaturated Ketones III [1]. Formation and Structure Elucidation of Dimers of 2-Aryl-methyleneketones: (5E)-5-Benzylidene-9β-phenyl-trans-4a-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,9a-decahydroxanthen-4aα-ol and 3β,5β-Bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2α,4β,6α-trimethyl-4α-propionyl-cyclohexanone [2]

Summary.  The reaction of 2-benzylidenecyclohexanone and 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methyl-1-penten-3-one with guanidine did not yield the expected 4-phenylhexahydro-2-quinazolinamine and 4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-dihydro-2-pyrimidinamine, respectively, but nitrogen-free products which turned out as [3+3]- and [4+2]-cycloadducts of two molecules of the applied vinylogous ketone each. According to elemental analyses, mass spectra, and, in particular, NMR analyses (¹H and ¹³CNMR, HH-COSY, gs-HSQC, gs-HMBC, 1D TOCSY, NOESY, and 1D NOE difference spectra), the prepared dimers were identified as racemic (5E)-5-benzylidene-9β-phenyl-trans-4a-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,9a-decahydroxanthen-4aα-ol and 3β,5β-bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2α,4β,6α-trimethyl-4α- propionylcyclohexanone, respectively. Structure and stereochemistry of the dimers are elucidated, and mechanisms for their formation are proposed. Received April 11, 2001. Accepted (revised) May 18, 2001     

Synthesis and Structural Assignment of 1-O-Acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-4-(thymin-1-yl)-α-l-lyxofuranose

Abstract

Analogues of nucleosides in which the nucleobase is fixed onto the C-4 of the sugar moiety are generally prepared either from 4,5-unsaturated sugar derivatives or via a formaldehyde condensation.¹ We tested the furanosyl bromide reactivity of 1 ² towards a series of nucleophiles, mostly azides or cyanides, without success. Conversely, the nucleosidation of 1 using 5-methyl-2,4-bis(trimethyl-silyloxy)pyrimidine in the presence of stannic chloride took place at the second anomeric position (C-4) and led to the isolation in acceptable yield (47%) of a unique anomer 2 (Scheme 1).     

Possible conformations of the seven-membered rings and relative stabilities of 1β,5α,6β,7α(H)- and 1α,5α,6β,7α(H)-guai-11(13)-en-6,12-olides

A calculation has been made by the method of molecular mechanics, using the MM2 program, of a number of stereomeres of 1,5,6,7(H)- and 1,5,6,7(H)-guai-11(13)-en-6,12-olides. The possibilities of the adoption by the seven-membered ring of particular conformations according to the type of its linkage with the 5-membered carbocycle have been considered. Questions of the influence of the orientation of the Me groups on the degree of distortion of the conformation of the seven-membered ring from the ideal and the relative stabilities of the various conformers are discussed.A.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Dinuclear Cu(Ⅱ) Complex Based on a Carboxyl-substituted 1H-1,2,3-Triazole and Its DNA Cleavage Activity

The novel dinuclear copper complex [Cu2(H2O)2(DMF)2(L)2](1, H2 L = 5-phenyl-2H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylic acid, DMF = N,N-dimethyl-formamide) has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. The compound crystallizes in triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 9.591, b = 10.508, c = 15.515 ?, β = 75.11°, V = 1446.2 ?3, Z = 2, Mr = 683.62, Dc = 1.570 g/cm3, μ = 1.531 mm-1, F(000) = 700, the final R = 0.0404 and w R = 0.1130 for 5327 observed reflections with I 2σ(I). In each unit of the complex, two Cu2+ ions coordinated with two triazole ligands to form a dimeric [5,6,5] tricyclic structure. The central Cu atom is five-coordinated, and each copper atom shows a square pyramidal geometry. The crystal structure is stabilized by the inversion-related O–H···O hydrogen bond and C–H···O hydrogen bonding interactions to form a layer structure. Fluorescent spectra show an obvious quenching of fluorescence compared with free 1,2,3-triazole ligand. The results of agarose gel electrophoresis indicate that this complex can cleave the plasmid supercoiled DNA within shorter time in the 50-folds excess of ascorbate under physiological conditions, providing a new example in the research for artificial metal nucleic acid enzyme.

A series of eight N¹-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-C⁴-(coumarin-4′′-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles have been synthesized by Cu(I)-catalyzed click reaction of 1-azido-1-deoxy-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranose with differently substituted 4-ethynylcoumarins followed by debenzoylation of the resulted N¹-(2′,3′,5′-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-C⁴-(coumarin-4″-yl)-1,2,3-triazoles in 71 to 89% overall yields. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were established on the basis of their spectral data analysis that was further confirmed by X-ray data analysis of one of the model benzoylated compounds, i.e. N¹-(2′,3′,5′-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-C⁴-(7″-isopropoxycoumarin-4″-yl)-1,2,3-triazole.     

Synthesis,characterization and epoxidation of hexakis-4-(2-(4-((β-methallyl)oxy)phenyl)propan-2-yl)phenoxycyclotriphosphazene

4-(2-(4-((β-Methallyl)oxy)phenyl)propan-2-yl)phenol was prepared via the reaction of methallyl chloride with bisphenol A and used for the synthesis of hexakis-4-(2-(4-((β-methallyl)oxy)phenyl)propan-2-yl)phenoxycyclotriphosphazene. It was revealed that the latter undergoes the Claisen rearrangement and can be also epoxidized by 3-chloroperbenzoic acid. The obtained epoxide was cured by a treatment with isophorone diamine. The decomposition and glass transition temperatures of cured resin were also estimated (275 and 130?°C, respectively) by DSC and TGA methods.
