Abstract

A series of new N′-(11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-ylidene)benzohydrazonamides 3a–3j was synthesized in excellent yields from the reaction of N³-substituted benzohydrazonamides 1 and 2-(11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-ylidene)malononitrile 2 in dichloromethane or with 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one 4 in ethyl acetate at ambient temperature. The new compounds have been characterized and screened for biological activity. Some of them showed significant antibacterial and antifungal activities. In particular, compounds 3c and 3e showed interesting activities as antibacterial agents while compounds 3a 3c, 3e, 3g, and 3i showed high antifungal activities.     

N-[11C]methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (Ecstasy) and 2-methyl-N-[11C]methyl-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine: Synthesis and biodistribution studies

In order to evaluate the neurobiological mechanism causing the psychogenic effects of methylenedioxy-derivatives of amphetamine, the carbon-11 labeled analogues of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA),2 and 2,N-dimethyl-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MADAM-6)4 were prepared for application in in-vivo PET studies by methylation of 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA)1 and 2-methyl-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine3 with [¹¹C]CH₃I. The radiochemical yield was determined in dependence on time, temperature and amount of precursor. The best conditions for a fast labeling reaction with carbon-11 on a preparative scale were found to be a reaction time of 10 min using 1 mg of the corresponding dimethyl-precursors1 or3, thus obtaining radiochemical yields of 60% (based on produced [¹¹C]CH₃I). Biodistribution studies were performed in rats, a high brain to blood ratio of 7.5 was observed for [¹¹C]MDMA in contrast to a ratio of 3.7 for [¹¹C]MADAM-6.

Efficient synthesis of onoceranediol from 12-hydroperoxy-8α,12-epoxy-11-bishomodrimane

An efficient one-step synthesis of the diacetate of the tetracyclic triterpenoid onoceranediol (4) by radical cleavage of the readily available 12-hydroperoxy-8α,12-epoxy-11-bishomodrimane is described. Drim-9(11)-en-8α-yl acetate (7) is formed in this reaction as a byproduct. Onoceranediol diacetate 4 is converted into onoceranediol on treatment with LiAlH₄, and acetate 7 is transformed into drim-9(11)-en-8α-ol on saponification.

Synthesis of Polyfunctional Drimanes from Drim-7,9(11)-diene and Drim-8-en-7-one

A series of 15 new polyfunctional drimanic compounds have been obtained by synthesis via dye-sensitized photooxygenation, bromination with N-bromosuccinimide, and electrochemical transformation of drim-7,9(11)-diene 1 and drim-8-en-7-one 2. Three alternative syntheses of 12-acetoxy-drim-7,9(11)-diene 8 and two of 11-bromo-drim-8(9)-en-7-one 10 have been accomplished. For the first time a drimanic compound 12 with an aromatic ring B has been synthesized and the experimental conditions for the selective bromination at C₁₁ and C₁₂ methyl groups of drim-8-en-7-one 2 have been optimized. The synthesized compounds are suitable intermediates for the preparation of natural drimane-type compounds and some of them have shown good antimicrobial and antifungal activities.

Nichtsteroide Entzündungshemmer, 4 Umlagerungen von Heterocyclen, 11 Ketenoide Umlagerung und Oxidation von 2-Pyronen zu 1,4-Naphthochinon-5-alkansäuren

Fused 2-pyrones4, obtained by the thermal condensation of ketones1 with reactive malonates2, rearrange above 200°C to yield condensed dihydroxynaphthalines5. The latter compounds can be oxidized to give 3-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone-5-alkanoic acids. The reaction of ketone8 with magic malonates2 or chlorocarbonyl ketene9 affords the pyrones11 in low yields. The 2-pyrones11 could not be rearranged to13; a possible explanation for this behaviour is presented.

The molecular structure of this cluster is based on an octadecahedron. In the crystal lattice, the individual clusters form layers supported by short edge-to-face π-interactions between the phenyl rings of neighboring molecules.

On the Use of Mercury Bis(Phenylselenolate) for the Synthesis of Polymeric Clusters: Synthesis and X-ray Structural Characterization of [Hg5Cl3(PhSe)7] n , [Hg7Cl3(PhSe)11] n and [Hg7Br3(PhSe)11] n

(PhSe)₂Hg reacts in DMF with HgX₂ (X = Cl, Br) in the presence of bis(pyrimidin-2-thio)methane/triphenylphosphine/4,4′-bipyridine, to give the polymeric cages [Hg₅Cl₃(PhSe)₇] _n (1), [Hg₇Cl₃(PhSe)₁₁] _n (2) and [Hg₇Br₃(PhSe)₁₁] _n (3). In compound 1 the polymeric chains along the a axis are linked through H···Cl interactions in the c axis, assembling a two-dimensional lattice in the ac plane. The analogue compounds 2 and 3 attain bulky single clusters with the general formula Hg₁₄X₆(SePh)₂₂ (X = Cl, Br), accomplished by the symmetrical combination of two asymmetric units [Hg₇X₃(PhSe)₁₁]. While the polymerization of the single units of 2 along the c axis occurs through 4 selenium atoms, the polymerization of 3 arises through 6 bonds involving Hg and Se atoms. Although 2 and 3 seem to be resultant from the random assembly of asymmetrical rings, both cluster compounds present symmetry centers.
