Synthesis of 2-phenylethynyl-1,3-dioxanes and their hydrolysis

2-Phenylethynyl substituted 1,3-dioxanes were obtained by the reaction of 1,3-dioxanium salts with an lotsich reagent. It was shown that they are readily hydrolyzed with the formation of a-acerylenic ketones. A simple new method is proposed for the synthesis of the latter without isolating the intermediate 1,3-dioxanes using the reaction of 4 substituted 2-methyl(phenyl, furyl)-1,3-dioxanium salts with hydroxymethyl- and phenylethynylmagnesium bromide as examples.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 193–197, February, 1996.     

Synthesis and transformations of 1,3-dithiol-2-ylideneisopropylidene malonates

The reaction of 2-alkylthio-1,3-dithiolium salts with Meldrum's acid gave 1,3-dithiol-2-ylideneisopropylidene malonates, which were converted successively to monoethyl esters of 1,3-dithiol-2-ylidenemalonic acids and esters of 1,3-dithiol-2-ylideneacetic acid. 2-Methyl-1,3-dithiolium salts are formed when 1,3-dithiol-2-ylideneisopropylidene malonates are heated with acids.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1621–1624, December, 1988.     

Substituted dienic 1,3-dioxolan-2-ones and bis(1,3-dioxolan-2-ones)

Alkylthio-substituted dienic 1,3-dioxolan-2-ones and bis(4,4-diorganyl-5-methyli-dene-1,3-dioxolan-2-ones) were obtained in high yields by the reaction of 2-methyl-6-alkylthio-5-hexen-3-yn-2-ols and tertiary diacetylenic glycols with carbon dioxide under pressure in the presence of catalytic amounts of triethylamine and monovalent copper salts.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1617–1619, December, 1979.Original article submitted January 24, 1979.     

Synthesis of 4H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-onium salts and 4-H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-ones

Salicylamide and its substituted derivatives react with aliphatic carboxylic acid anhydrides and perchloric acid to give 4H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-onium salts. These same compounds were obtained by acidic cyclization of O- and N-acylsalicylamides. The synthesized salts are converted to 2-substituted 4H-1,3-benzoxazin-4-ones by the action of triethylamine and are hydrolyzed by water to N-acylsalicylamides. The probable reaction scheme is examined.     

Synthesis of 1,3-diglycidylimidazolium salts

For the first time, 1,3-diglycidylimidazolium salts were obtained. Their synthesis was accomplished by two routes: the reaction of imidazole with epichlorohydrin in the presence of sodium perchlorate with the subsequent dehydrochlorination of the reaction products with alkalis, and the quaternization of 1-glycidylimidazoles with epichlorohydrin in the presence of salts of strong acids.Institute of Organophysical Chemistry and Carbon Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Donetsk 340114.

Synthesis of some substituted 1,3-thiazolines and 1,3-thiazolidines

Sodium salts of 2, 2-dimethyl-4-mercapto-5-oxo-1,3-thiazoline and 2-oxo-3-mercapto-1-thia-4-azaspiro[4.5]dec-3-ene, obtained from a solvate of sodium cyanodithioformate with three molecules of dimethylformamide, acetone, or cyclohexanone in the presence of morpholine, react with chlorothioformic dimethylamide with the formation of 2,2-dimethyl-5-oxo-4-(dimethylaminothiocarbonylthio)-1,3-thiazoline and 2-oxo-3-(dimethylaminothiocarbonylthio)-1-thia-4-azaspiro[4.5]dec-3-ene, respectively, and during acidolysis by hydrochloric acid they are converted to 2,2-dimethyl-5-oxo-4-thiono-1,3-thiazolidine and 2-oxo-3-thiono-1-thia-4-azaspiro[4.5]decane. The latter compounds are facilely phosphorylated by dialkyl chlorophosphonates at the nitrogen atom. The reaction of the solvate of sodium cyanodithioformate with three molecules of dimethylformamide with chloroacetone in the presence of morpho-line occurs anomalously with the formation of cyanothioformic morpholide.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2590–2593, November, 1990.     

Synthesis of 4-oxo-1,3-benz- and naphthoxazinium salts from o-hydroxyarylamides

The acid-catalyzed acylation of primary and secondary o-hydroxyarylamides, the probable reaction scheme, and the possibility of the formation of 4-oxo-1,3-arenooxazinium salts and analogs in the reaction of amides of salicylic, coumaric, and 1-hydroxy- and 3-hydroxynaphthoic acids and their N-alkyl(aryl)derivatives with excess amounts of aliphatic acid anhydrides and 70% perchloric acid, as well as by the acid cyclization of O- and N-mono- and diacyl derivatives of these amides, are examined. Twelve previously unknown 2-alkyl- and 2-styryl-4-oxo-1,3-naphth[3,2-e]-and -[1,2-e]oxazinium perchlorates were synthesized. N-Methyl- and N-benzylamides of 8-acetoxy-1-naphthoic acid are formed instead of the expected peri-cyclic analogs of oxazinium salts in the reaction of 8-hydroxy-1-naphthoic acid anilides with acetic anhydride and perchloric acid.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1611–1616, December, 1979.Original article submitted May 31, 1978; revision submitted April 2, 1979.     

Synthesis and characterization of acrylated phosphonates and their polymers having 1,3-dioxolane and 1,3-dioxane moieties derived from brominated cyclic acetals of polyols through the Arbuzov reaction. II

Glycerol, D -mannitol, and D -sorbitol were converted into their mono- and di-O-1,3-dioxolane and 1,3-dioxane bromoethylidene derivatives through a transacetalation reaction with bormoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal under controlled conditions. These brominated dioxolane or dioxane derivatives were subsequently phosphonylated through the Arbuzov reaction. The phosphonylated cyclic acetals were used as precursors for the synthesis of acrylated phosphonate monomers. All these compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic (IR, ¹H-,¹³C-, ³¹P-NMR and mass) methods. A mixture of 1,3-dioxane and 1,3-dioxolane derivatives was obtained with D -sorbitol, whereas the reaction products with glycerol and D -mannitol yielded primarily the 1,3-dioxolane derivatives. The acrylated phosphonates of glycerol and mannitol have been polymerized and studied on the basis of gel permeation chromatography and their spectral and thermal properties. The acrylated phosphonates, monomers, and polymers, were shown to have a large capacity to solvate and dissolve heavy metal salts. This results in a dramatic increase (> 100°C) of the glass transition temperature of these polymers.     

Reactions of 1,3-isothiocyanato ketones with mineral acids. Synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2H,1,3-thiazin-2-ones

Reactions of 1, 3-isothiocyanato ketones with mineral acids formed 3, 4-dihydro-2H, 1, 3-thiazin-2-ones or their mixtures with 6-alkylidenetetrahydro-1, 3-thiazin-2-ones. Subsequent acid hydrolysis of the thiazines obtained formed salts of 1,3-amino ketones. The direction and extent of the transformation depend on the nature of the acid, reaction temperature, and structure of the 1,3-isothiocyanato ketones.Omsk State University, Omsk 644077.

A novel alkylation procedure using MW irradiation for the synthesis of 1,2,3-trisubstituted 1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1,3-diazocinium salts from their corresponding 1,2-diaryldiazocines

In this work, we describe the synthesis of a series of 1,2,3-trisubstituted-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1,3-diazocinium salts (1) by alkylation of the corresponding 1,2-diaryl-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1,3-diazocines (2). Compounds 2 were obtained by ethyl polyphosphate-promoted cyclocondensation of N-aroyl-N′-arylpentamethylenediamines (3). Reaction of compounds 2 with alkyl iodides led to 1,2,3-trisubstituted 1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-1,3-diazocinium iodides (1), a new family of cyclic amidinium salts. The best yields for the alkylation were achieved using a mixture of DCM–DMSO (10:1) as solvent. The reaction times of both, the cyclocondensation of compounds 3 and the reaction of 2 with alkyl halides, are dramatically decreased when using microwave irradiation.     

1,3-dioxenium cations: Synthesis and properties

The features and prospects of the new reaction of 1,3-keto-enols, ketones, and acids yielding 1,3-dioxenium salts were investigated. The results of studies of the structure, topomerization, and transformations of 1,3-dioxenium cations — a new family of stable heterocyclic cations of the allyl type — were generalized.     

Synthesis of zwitterionic salts via three component reactions of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, acetylenedicarboxylate and cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds

A practical synthetic procedure for the preparation of the charge-separated pyridinium-Meldrum acid zwitterionic salts was developed through a unique one-pot three component reaction of pyridine, acetylenedicarboxylate and Meldrum acid. Other nitrogen-containing heterocycles such as N-methylimidazole, 2-picoline, quinoline, isoquinoline and other cyclic 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds such as 1,3-cyclopentanedione, 1,3-cyclohexanedione, barbituric acid also took part in the reaction to give corresponding zwitterionic salts in moderate yields, respectively. In one case an unusual isoquinolinium 1,3-cyclopentanedionate was obtained. A feasible explanation is given for this novel one-pot tandem reaction and the formation of different kinds of products.     

Salts of alkyl-substituted 3,4-dihydroiso-quinolines with 2-acetylcyclopentane-1,3-dione

Reactions of alkyl-substituted 3,4-dihydroisoquinolines, with 2-acetylcyclopentane-1,3-dione were used to prepare 3,4-dihydroisoquinolinium 2-acetylcyclopentane-1, 3-dionates, which could not be converted into ABCD-tetracyclic derivatives of the 8-azagonane series (benzo[a]cyclopentano[f]quinolizines). The salts obtained were studied and characterized by physicochemical methods. It was shown by combining the NMR and H/D-isotope exchange methods that for 1-alkyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines and their salts in solutions, an imine-enamine (iminium-enaminium), and for the 2-acetylcyclopentane-1,3-dione anion, a keto-enol tautomeric equilibrium takes place.Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Belarus', Minsk 220141.

Studies on cyclization of o-(alka-1,3-diynyl)arenediazonium salts

The Richter reaction of o-(alka-1,3-diynyl)arenediazonium salts, obtained by diazotization of diacetylenic derivatives of anilines, leads to 3-alkynyl-4-chloro- or 3-alkynyl-4-bromocinnolines and/or 3-alkynyl-4-hydroxycinnolines (the latter cyclize into furo[3,2-c]-cinnolines under the reaction conditions). 3-Alkynyl-4-chlorocinnolines undergo solvolysis in methanol giving rise to 3-alkynyl-4-methoxycinnolines, the subsequent hydrolysis of which also gives furo[3,2-c]cinnolines. Effects of the nature of substituents in the aromatic ring and of the reaction conditions on the product composition and yields have been established. The reaction course has been studied by spectrophotometry. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1693–1700, August, 2008.     

Synthesis of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium-2-carboxylates by direct carboxylation of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium chlorides with CO2

1,3-Dialkylimidazolium-2-carboxylates 1a and 1b are obtained in good to excellent yield and selectivity by carboxylation of the corresponding 1,3-dialkylimidazolium chloride salts with a CO₂/Na₂CO₃ system at temperatures ranging from 80 to 135 °C. The effect of temperature and reaction time on the yield and the selectivity of the carboxylation products has been studied. Coupling the CO₂-based synthesis of 1,3-dialkylimidazolium-2-carboxylates with the transcarboxylation reaction described earlier [Tommasi, I.; Sorrentino, F.; Tetrahedron Lett., 2005, 46, 2141] allows us to set up a new synthetic procedure for the synthesis of organic carboxylates and alkylcarbonate anions avoiding the use of strong bases.     

Synthesis of conjugated (E,E)-1,3-diene-containing troponoid-based compounds

Through exploration of the electrophilic substitution reaction of 3-((2E,4E)-5-phenylpenta-2,4-dienoyl)-2-hydroxy-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one (3-((2E,4E)-5-phenylpenta-2,4-dienoyl)tropolone) with halogen and diazonium salts as well as the nucleophilic cyclisation reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and substituted phenylhydrazine hydrochlorides by employing our reliable methods, we have synthesised a series of new (E,E)-1,3-diene-bearing troponoid-based compounds. All the newly synthesised molecules represent an issue of great interest, since the presence of conjugated 1,3-diene moiety can be developed further via other reactions.     

The Richter reaction of ortho-(alka-1,3-diynyl)aryldiazonium salts

The cyclisation of various ortho-buta-1,3-diynylaryldiazonium salts was studied and shown to depend on the reaction conditions and nature of the substituents on the benzene ring. The reaction leads to 4-chloro-3-ethynylcinnolines, and/or 3-ethynyl-4-hydroxycinnolines, the latter undergoing subsequent cyclisation to give furo[3,2-c]cinnolines.     

Synthesis of 5-alkynyl-2,2,6-trimethyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones and 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles

Herein we report an approach to the formation of 5-alkynyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones using Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction of potassium alkynyltrifluoroborate salts with 2,2,6-trimethyl-5-iodo-1,3-dioxin-4-one. The resulting 5-ethynyltrimethylsilyl-1,3-dioxin-4-ones obtained through the Sonogashira reaction were further reacted in a Cu(I)-catalyzed Huisgen azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to form functionalized 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles in good yields, using mild conditions and ultrasonic radiation to expedite the reaction.     

Interaction of (z)-4-bromo-1,3-di(2-thienyl)- 2-buten-1-one with amines,synthesis of di(2-thienyl)azolo[<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyridines

(Z)-4-Bromo-1,3-di(2-thienyl)-2-buten-1-one was obtained by the bromination of 1,3-di(2-thienyl)-2-buten-1-one by NBS in anhydrous CCl₄. The starting butanone was obtained by the condensation of 1-(2-thienyl)-1-ethanone by the action of SOCl₂. The reaction of (Z)-4-bromo-1,3-di(2-thienyl)-2-buten-1-one with tertiary amines such as Et₃N, pyridine, 1-alkyl-1,3-diazole, 1-alkylbenzimidazole, and 1-alkyl-1,2,4-triazole leads to quaternary salts. The azolium salts cyclize by the action of base to give di(2-thienyl)azolo[a]pyridinium derivatives. 3-Methyl-6,8-di(2-thienyl)[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyridin-4-ium and 2,4-di(2-thienyl)pyrido[2,1-b]benzothiazol-10-ium bromides were obtained by the same procedure but without separating the intermediate quaternary salts.
