Study of furan compounds

Research on synthesis of polycyclic spirans of the 1, 6-dioxaspiro-[4, 4]nonane group is continued. Electrolysis of methanol solutions of 2-furylcyclopentanol, 2-(5-methyl-furfuryl)cyclopentanol, and 2-furfuryl-1-indanol, gives, by intramolecular alkoxylation, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5dihydrofuran)}, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxy-5-methyl-2, 5-dihydrofuran)}, and spiro{2, 3, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxy-2, 5-dihydrofuran)}, hitherto undescribed in the literature. Depending on the conditions, catalytic hydrogenation of these gives: spiro{perhydiocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxytetrahydrofuran)}, spiro{2, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-(5-methoxytetrahydrofuran)}, spiro{perhydrocyclopenta[b]furan-2, 2-tetrahydrofuran}, and spiro{2, 3, 3a, 8b-tetrahydro-4H-indeno[1, 2-b]furan-2, 2-tetrahydrofuran}.For Part XXXI see [1].

Vanadyl ion complexes with nucleotides

Summary Complexes of adenosine-5-triphosphate, adenosine-5-monophosphate, guanosine-5-monophosphate, inosine-5-monophosphate, cytidine-5-monophosphate and uridine-5-monophosphate with vanadyl ion, have been studied in the solid state by i.r. spectroscopy and magnetochemically. All complexes have normal magnetic moments, very close to the spin-only values. From the i.r. spectra it is suggested that the vanadyl ion is interacting with adenosine-5-triphosphate, through the N-1 of the purine ring, with adenosine-5-monophosphate, guanosine-5-monophosphate, inosine-5-monophosphate, through the N-7 of the purine ring, with cytidine-5-monophosphate through the N-3 of the pyrimidine ring, and most probably through the phosphate group with uridine-5-monophosphate. The complexes of vanadyl ion with the nucleotides are probably polymeric.     

Reaction of 2,2-bis(4′-hydroxy-3′-N,N-diethylaminomethylphenyl) propane with triethyl phosphite

Conclusions The reaction of 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-N,N-diethylaminomethylphenyl)propane with triethyl phosphite gave 2,2-bis(4-ethoxy-3-diethylphosphonomethylphenyl)propane via the intermediate formation of a compound with a pentacovalent phosphorus atom. In the presence of acetic acid the reaction leads to 2,2-bis(4-hydroxy-3-diethylphosphonomethylphenyl)propane.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1621–1624, July, 1978.

New chiral acyclic analogs of 2′-deoxynucleosides

Convenient methods for the synthesis of chiral 2,3-seco-2-deoxynucleosides were developed. An isopropylidene protective group was used to block the 3,5-hydroxy groups in 2,3-seco-uridine. Conversion of the hydroxymethyl group to a methyl group was accomplished by chlorination with a mixture of CCl₄ and Ph₃P with subsequent reduction with n-Bu₃SnH. 2,3-seco-2-Deoxyuridine was obtained after deacetonation. The (S) enantiomer was similarly synthesized starting from 1-(-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracil. 3-O-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl-5-O-(p-monomethoxytrityl)-2,3-seco-2-deoxyuridine, which has optically active centers at C₍₁₎ and C₍₄₎, was also synthesized.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 822–826, June, 1988.The authors thank Professor M.

Pyrimidines. 70. Relative reactivities of the chlorine atoms of 2,2′,4-trichloro-4′,5-dipyrimidinyl in its reaction with piperidine

2,2,4-Trichloro-6-phenyl-4,5-dipyrimidinyl, for which nucleophilic substitution with piperdine under various conditions was studied, was obtained from 2,2,4-trioxo-6-phenyl-1, 1,2,2,3,4-hexahydro-4,5-dipyrimidinyl. It is shown that there is an appreciable difference in the rates of substitution of the first, second, and third chlorine atoms, and this made it possible to obtain reaction products that contain one, two, and three piperidino groups. The chlorine atom in the 4 position is replaced initially, after which the chlorine atom in the 2 position undergoes substitution. The structures of the compounds were proved by chemical transformations and analysis of the PMR spectra.See [1] for communication 69.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 821–826, June, 1979.     

1,2-Dimethylimidazobenzo-1′, 2′, 3′-thiadiazoles and derived cyanine dyes

New tricylic heterocyclic systems and their methyl derivatives are synthesized. They are 2-methylimidazo[5, 4-e]benzo-1, 2, 3-thiadiazole, 2-methylimidazo[5, 4-g]benzo-1, 2', 3-thiadiazole, 1, 2-dimethylimidazo[5, 4-g]benzo-1, 2, 3-thiadiazole, and 1, 2-dimethylimidazo[5, 4-g]benzo-1, 2, 3-thiadiazole. Quaternary salts of the 1, 2-dimethyl derivatives are used to prepare symmetrical and unsymmetrical trimethinecyanines and dimethinemerocyanines containing rhodanine groups. The absorption maxima of the dyes are displaced towards the long wavelength region compared with imidacarbocyanines. It is shown that when 1, 2-dimetnyl-5-aminobenzoimidazole is thiocyanated, the thiocyano group enters the benzoimidazole ring at position 4, and that 1, 2-dimethylimidazo[5, 4-e] benzo-1, 2, 3-thiadiazole is less basic than its isomer 1, 2-dimethylimidazo[5, 4-g]benzo-1, 2, 3-thiadiazole.     

Synthesis of some 5′-O-amino acid derivatives of uridine as potential inhibitors ofUDP-glucuronosyltransferase

Summary In an attempt to develop potential inhibitors ofUDP-glucuronosyltransferase, some 5-O-amino acid derivatives of uridine were synthesized. N-protectedL-amino acids were coupled at the 5-O-position of 2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine by esterification employing the method of symmetrical anhydrides in presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, 5-O-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl-O-tert.butyl-L-threonl)-23-O-isopropylideneuridine (1), 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-O-benzyl-L-seryl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine and (2), 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine (3), and 5-O-(N-tert.butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylideneuridine (4) were obtained in good yield after column chromatography on silica gel. The treatment of2 withTFA/CH₂Cl₂ (6:1) at room temperature for 30 min led to a selective removal of theBoc group without deblocking of the 2,3-O-isopropylidene group of uridine. Treatment of2 withTFA/H₂O (5:1) at room temperature for 1 h, however, released bothBoc and 2,3-isopropylidene groups. TheZ group of1 was deprotected by catalytic hydrogenolysis over 10% Pd/C/ammonium formate.

Synthese von 5-O-Aminosäurederivaten des Uridins als potentielle Inhibitoren derUDP-Glukuronosyl-Transferase

Zusammenfassung In einem Versuch, potentielle Inhibitoren derUDP-Glukuronosyl-Transferase zu entwickeln, wurden einige 5-O-Aminosäurederivate des Uridins synthetisiert. N-GeschützteL-Aminosäuren wurden durch Veresterung mit der 5-O-Position des 2,3-isopropylidenuridins gekuppelt (Methode der symmetrischen Anhydride in der Gegenwart von 5-Dimethylaminopyridin). Solcherweise wurden 5-O-(N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-O-tert.butyl-L-threonly)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (1), 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-O-benzyl-L-seryl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (2), 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-L-leucyl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridin (3) und 5-O-(N-tert.Butyloxycarbonyl-L-valyl)-2,3-O-isopropylidenuridine (4) nach Säulenchromatographie (Kieselgel) in guter Ausbeute hergestellt. Die Behandlung von2 mitTFA/CH₂Cl₂ (6:1) bei Zimmertemperatur (30 min) führte zu einer selektiven Abspaltung derBoc-Gruppe ohne Deblockierung der 2,3-O-Isopropylidengruppe des Uridins. Eine Behandlung von2 mitTFA/H₂O (5:1) bei Zimmertemperatur für 1 Stunde führte hingegen zur Abspaltung sowohl derBoc als auch der 2,3-O-Isopropylidengruppe. DieZ-Gruppe von1 wurde durch katalytische Hydrogenolyse auf 10% Pd/C/Ammoniumformiat abgespalten.
