Facile transformation of (Z)‐4‐(2‐bromovinyl)benzenesulfonyl azide to (Z)‐N‐[4‐ (2‐bromovinyl)benzenesulfonyl]imidates was also achieved by Cu‐catalyzed three‐component coulping of (Z)‐4‐(2‐bromovinyl)benzenesulfonyl azide, terminal alkynes and alcohols/phenols.

Synthesis,Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Novel N‐Benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic Acid‐bridged Manganese(II) Polymer with Double‐Chain Structure

First N‐benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic acid‐bridged manganese(II) coordination polymer [Mn(bipy)(bs‐glu)]_n (bs‐glu = N‐benzenesulfonyl‐L‐glutamic acid dianion, bipy = 2, 2′‐bipyridine) has been synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁. The γ‐carboxyl group coordinates to the Mn^II atom in a chelating mode, while the α‐carboxyl group coordinates in a bidentate‐bridging mode. The complex displays a one‐dimensional double‐chain polymer. Magnetic measurements show that there are weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the adjacent Mn^II ions in the compound.     

Synthesis and Pharmacological Characterization of New H2‐Antagonists Containing NO‐Donor Moieties,Endowed with Mixed Antisecretory and Gastroprotective Activities

Synthesis, structural characterization, and pharmacological profile of a series of H₂‐antagonists able to release nitric oxide (NO) are reported. These compounds were obtained by using appropriate spacers to join H₂‐antagonistic pharmacophoric groups related to lamtidine and tiotidine to different NO‐donor moieties such as esters of HNO₃, nitrosothio groups, and benzenesulfonyl‐substituted furoxans. All of the compounds were tested for their NO‐donor properties. Furthermore, the hybrid structures synthesized, together with some selected reference compounds, were tested for their H₂‐antagonistic properties, both in vitro and in vivo, and for their gastroprotective effects. Only the hybrid compounds were able both to antagonize histamine effects on guinea‐pig papillary muscle and to display in vivo antisecretory and gastroprotective action. The best results were obtained with the lamtidine/furoxan hybrid structure.

Magnesium complexes incorporated by sulfonate phenoxide ligands as efficient catalysts for ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone and trimethylene carbonate

Two novel sulfonate phenol ligands—3,3′‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2′‐hydroxy‐5,5′,6,6′‐tetramethyl‐biphenyl‐2‐yl 4‐X‐benzenesulfonate (X?CF₃, L^CF3 ‐H, and X?OCH₃, L^OMe ‐H)—were prepared through the sulfonylation of 3,3′‐di‐tert‐butyl‐5,5′,6,6′‐tetramethylbiphenyl‐2,2′‐diol with the corresponding 4‐substituted benzenesulfonyl chloride (1 equiv.) in the presence of excess triethylamine. Magnesium (Mg) complexes supported by sulfonate phenoxide ligands were synthesized and characterized structurally. The reaction of MgⁿBu₂ with L‐H (2 equiv.) produces the four‐coordinated monomeric complexes ( L^CF3 )₂Mg ( 1 ) and ( L^OMe )₂Mg ( 2 ). Complexes 1 and 2 are efficient catalysts for the ring‐opening polymerization of ε‐caprolactone (ε‐CL) and trimethylene carbonate (TMC) in the presence of 9‐anthracenemethanol; complex 1 catalyzes the polymerization of ε‐CL and TMC in a controlled manner, yielding polymers with the expected molecular weights and narrow polydispersity indices (PDIs). In ε‐CL polymerization, the activity of complex 1 is greater than that of complex 2 , likely because of the greater Lewis acidity of Mg²⁺ metal caused by the electron‐withdrawing substitute trifluoromethyl (? CF₃) at the 4‐position of the benzenesulfonate group. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 48: 3564–3572, 2010     

Synthesis and reactions of some 6-aryl and 2,6-diaryl-4-(4′-antipyrinyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridazin-3-ones and screening for their antibacterial activities

Some new pyridazinone derivatives(3) were synthesized through addition of antipyrin to β-aroylacrylic acids (1) followed by cyclization of the adducts. Reactions of 3 with ethyl bromoacetate, benzenesulfonyl chloride, benzoyl chloride and POCl₃ give N-substituted products and monochlorosubstituted pyridazines (4), respectively. The reactions of the latter with thiourea give unexpected dithio-derivatives (5), which react with phenylhydrazine to give pyrazolopyridazino pyridazine derivatives (6). Reactions of 2 with NH₂OH in ethanol and pyridine afford oxime and oxazinone derivatives 7 and 8, respectively. The antibacterial activities of several compounds were screened.     

Enantioselective Hydroazidation of Trisubstituted Non‐Activated Alkenes

A one‐pot procedure for the enantioselective hydroazidation of non‐activated trisubstituted alkenes is described. Hydroboration with monoisopinocampheylborane (IpcBH₂) provides dialkylboranes that are in situ selectively converted into monoalkyl‐substituted catecholboranes; these undergo radical azidation upon treatment with benzenesulfonyl azide and a radical initiator. Enantiomerically enriched azides were thus obtained in yields of 59–81 % and enantioselectivities of up to 94:6 e.r. (98:2 e.r. if the intermediate dialkylborane is purified by crystallization). A rapid access to enantiomerically pure (+)‐rodocaine is also described. The use of other arenesulfonyl radical traps enables enantioselective hydroallylation, hydrosulfanylation, and hydrobromination reactions with yields of 71–86 %.

Amine-induced lossen rearrangements of 3-hydroxy-5,6-dihydrouracil and N-hydroxysuccinimide benzenesulfontes

The reaction of sodium succinohydroxamate with benzenesulfonyl chloride yielded 3-benzene-sulfonyloxy-5,6-dihydrouracil, 3 . Treatment of 3 with ammonia, aniline, t-butylamine or piperidine yielded a mixture of the requisite 1,2-bis(ureido)ethane and 1-curboxamido-2-imidazolidone. Acylation of N-hydroxysuccinimide with benzenesulfonyl chloride furnished N-benzenesulfonyl-oxysuccinimide, 10. Aniline or t-butylamine were used as representative amines to demonstrate their capability of inducing a Lossen degradation on 10 to afford the corresponding β-ureido -propionamide.     

Quantum Chemical Calculation of Conformations and Rotation Barriers of Functional Groups in Arylsulfonyl Halides

The semiempirical PM3 method is used to calculate the potential functions of internal rotation of the functional groups –SO₂Cl, –NO₂, –CH₃, –OCH₃, and –NH₂ of benzenesulfonyl halide molecules (PhSO₂Hal, Hal = F, Cl, Br, I) and twelve substituted derivatives of benzenesulfonyl chloride. Molecular conformations have been determined and internal rotation barriers of the functional groups have been calculated. For meta- and para-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides, the projection of the S–Hal bond is perpendicular to the plane of the benzene ring. The rotation barriers of the –SO₂Hal group of benzenesulfonyl halides increase in the series Hal = F, Cl, Br, I. The rotation barriers of the –SO₂Cl group of benzenesulfonyl chloride with meta- and para-substituents slightly increase with the electron-donor properties of the substituent. The rotation barriers of the functional groups of ortho-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides are 3 or 4 times as high as those of the meta- and para-isomers. For para-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides, the rotation barriers of the functional groups increase in the order –CH₃, –NO₂, –SO₂Cl, –OCH₃, –NH₂.     

SN1‐SN2 and SN2‐SN3 mechanistic changes revealed by transition states of the hydrolyses of benzyl chlorides and benzenesulfonyl chlorides

Hydrolysis reactions of benzyl chlorides and benzenesulfonyl chlorides were theoretically investigated with the density functional theory method, where the water molecules are explicitly considered. For the hydrolysis of benzyl chlorides (para‐Z? C₆H₄? CH₂? Cl), the number of water molecules (n) slightly influences the transition‐state (TS) structure. However, the para‐substituent (Z) of the phenyl group significantly changes the reaction process from the stepwise (S_N1) to the concerted (S_N2) pathway when it changes from the typical electron‐donating group (EDG) to the typical electron‐withdrawing one (EWG). The EDG stabilizes the carbocation (MeO? C₆H₄? CH₂⁺), which in turn makes the S_N1 mechanism more favorable and vice versa. For the hydrolysis of benzenesulfonyl chlorides (para‐Z? C₆H₄? SO₂? Cl), both the Z group and n influence the TS structure. For the combination of the large n value (n > 9) and EDG, the S_N2 mechanism was preferred. Conversely, for the combination of the small n value and EWG, the S_N3 one was more favorable. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Structure and chemistry of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone

The structure of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone formed by the reaction of 6-methyl-2H-pyran-2,4(3H)-dione and ammonia is characterized. A method is discussed for the structure determination of pyridone type compounds. Reaction of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone with an equivalent amount of benzenesulfonyl chloride gives 4-benzenesulfonyloxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone. With two equivalent amounts of benzenesulfonyl chloride, 2,4-dibenzenesulfonyloxy-6-picoline is formed. 4-Hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridone is preferentially attacked by electrophiles at the 3 position.
