Cyclocondensation reaction of 4-(2-bromoacetyl)quinolin-1-ium bromide ( 4a–d ) with substituted arylthiourea, ( 5a–g ) afforded 4-(6-substituted quinolin-4-yl)-N-aryl/pyridyl thiazol-2-amine ( 6a-ab ). These newly synthesized derivatives were evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (NCIM 2574), Proteus mirabilis (NCIM 2388) (Gram-negative strains), Bacillus subtilis (NCIM 2063), Staphylococcus albus (NCIM 2178) (Gram-positive strains) and in vitro antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger (ATCC 504) and Candida albicans (NCIM 3100). Compounds 6a , 6b , 6d , 6f , 6k , and 6l showed moderate to good antibacterial activity against S. albus. Ten derivatives 6c , 6q , 6r , 6s , 6t , 6v , 6w , 6x , 6y , and 6aa , showed moderate to good activity against A. niger. N-[4-(Quinolin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazol-2-yl]pyridin-2-amine presented comparable activity against A. niger with respect to standard drug Rouconazole.     

Synthesis and Biological Activity of 1‐(Substituted phenoxyacetoxy)‐1‐(pyridin‐2‐yl or thien‐2‐yl)methylphosphonates

A series of novel O,O‐dimethyl 1‐(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)‐1‐(pyridin‐2‐yl or thien‐2‐yl)methylphosphonates 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j , 6k , 6l , 6m , 6n and 7a , 7b , 7c , 7d were synthesized. Their structures were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, mass spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. The results of preliminary bioassays show that some of the title compounds exhibit moderate to good herbicidal and fungicidal activities. For example, the title compounds 6a , 6c , 6l , 6m , and 7d possess 90–100% inhibition against most of the tested plants at the dosage of 1500 g ai/ha, whereas the title compounds 6b , 6g , 6h and 6n possess 92–100% inhibition against Fusarium oxysporum, Phyricularia grisea, Botrytis cinereapers, Gibberella zeae, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Cercospora beticola at the concentration of 50 mg/L.     

A divergent synthesis of dihydropyridazinones,N‐substituted dihydropyrazoles,and O‐substituted pyrazoles

Dihydropyridazinones 4a , 4b , N‐substituted dihydropyrazoles 5b , 5c , 5d , and O‐substituted pyrazoles 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d have been synthesized starting from spirocyclopropanepyrazole derivative 2 . Treatment of 2 with α‐chloro esters, e.g., methyl chloroacetate, ethyl chloroacetate, isopropyl chloroacetate, and tert‐butyl chloroacetate, in potassium carbonate/sodium iodide system caused ring opening and subsequent C‐ or N‐attack nucleophilic substitution to give the corresponding dihydropyridazinones 4a , 4b and N‐substituted dihydropyrazoles 5b , 5c , 5d . On the other hand, in the absence of sodium iodide, O‐substituted pyrazoles 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d were obtained from 2 via an O‐attack nucleophilic substitution. J. Heterocyclic Chem., 2011.     

Reaction of ethyl 3-ethoxymethylene-2,4-dioxovalerate and ethyl ethoxymethyleneoxaloacetate with 3-aminopyrazole analogs. Synthesis and chemistry of 3,6,7-trisubstituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives

The chemical reactivity of a series of 3-substituted-6-acetyl-7-carbethoxypyrazolo[l,5-a]pyrimidines ( 6a,b,c ) and 3-substituted-6,7-dicarbethoxypyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines ( 7a,b,c ), prepared by the condensations of the 3-aminopyrazole analogs ( 3a,b,c ) with ethyl 3-ethoxymethylene-2,4-dioxovalerate ( 1 ) or ethyl 3-ethoxymethyleneoxaloacetate ( 2 ), was investigated. Catalytic hydrogenation of 6 or 7 afforded 4,7-dihydro derivatives ( 8 or 9 ). Treatment of 6a,b with acetic acid and water underwent ring transformation into 6H-pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3]diazepin-6-ones ( 17a,b ). By treatment with phenylhydrazine compounds of type 6 underwent cyclization to yield 2H-dipyrazolo[1,5-a:4′,3′-e]pyrimidines ( 18a,b,c ). Compounds 6 or 7 were treated with an excess of diazomethane at room temperature to give 5-methyl-6H-cyclopropa[5a,6a]pyrazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidines ( 24 and 25 ) in excellent yields. However, when this reaction was carried out under ice cooling, only compounds of type 23 were isolated. Reaction of 6a with ethyl diazoacetate is also described.

A new series of 3‐(arylaminomethyl)‐5‐(5‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐4‐pyrazolyl)‐2,3‐dihydro‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole‐2‐thiones 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j has been synthesized by the reaction of 5‐(5‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐4‐pyrazolyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazol‐2‐ylhydrosulfide 5 with formaldehyde and corresponding anilines. The chemical structures of newly synthesized compounds were elucidated by IR, ¹H, ¹³C‐NMR, MS, and elemental analyses. The compounds 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against three representative Gram positive bacteria viz. Bacillus subtilis (MTCC 441), Bacillus sphaericus (MTCC 11) and Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 96), and three Gram negative bacteria viz. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MTCC 741), Klobsinella aerogenes (MTCC 39) and Chromobacterium violaceum. Among the screened 6b , 6d , 6i , and 6j in which oxadiazole moiety bearing 4‐fluoroanilinomethyl, 4‐chloroanilinomethyl, 2‐trifluoromethylanilinomethyl, and 2,5‐difluoroanilinomethyl groups, respectively, showed high activity against all the microorganisms used. In addition these compounds were also screened for their antifungal activity against four fungal organisms viz. Candida albicans (ATCC 10231), Aspergillus fumigatus (HIC 6094), Trichophyton rubrum (IFO 9185), and Trichophyton mentagrophytes (IFO 40996). Most of these new compounds showed appreciable activity against test fungi, and emerged as potential molecules for further development.     

Syntheses of 6-O-ethyl/methyl-celluloses via ring-opening copolymerization of 3-O-benzyl-6-O-ethyl/methyl-α-d-glucopyranose 1,2,4-orthopivalates and their structure–property relationships

6-O-Alkyl-celluloses with well-defined ratio of ethyl and methyl groups at position 6 were prepared by ring-opening copolymerization of 6-O-ethyl and 6-O-methyl glucose 1,2,4-orthopivalate derivatives. An aqueous solution of 6-O-ethyl-cellulose having no methyl group was found to be thermo-responsive to be turbid at ~70 °C. An aqueous solution of 6-O-ethyl-cellulose with higher molecular weight showed endothermic and exothermic peaks in the heating and cooling curves of DSC measurements, respectively. However, 6-O-alkyl-cellulose having 10% methyl group lost its thermo-responsive character. 6-O-Alkyl-celluloses having more than ten percent of ethyl group at position 6 became water-soluble, though 6-O-methyl-cellulose is insoluble in water. Thus, 6-O-ethyl group was found to be of importance for the water solubility of regioselective 6-O-alkyl-celluloses. Furthermore, a small amount of methyl group introduced at C6 position was found to affect some of physical properties of 6-O-alkyl-celluloses such as thermo responsive property.     

Influence of preparation methods on the structures and properties for the blends between polyamide 6co6T and polyamide 6: Melt‐mixing and in‐situ blending

Two blends between polyamide 6 (PA6) and Polyamide 6co6T (PA6co6T, a random copolymer between polyamide 6 and polyamide 6T) were fabricated by melt‐mixing on a twin‐screw extruder and the subsequent injection molding, or through the in‐situ polymerization of ε‐caprolactam in the presence of PA6co6T. As far as the former method is concerned, there exist an obvious decline of toughness and a slight increase in strength and modulus; however, for the latter, there appear a remarkable improvement in toughness and a simultaneous moderate increase in strength and modulus. A series of characterizations were carried out including scanning electron microscopy, wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, polarized optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. It is found that both blends exhibit single glass transition on DMA tan δ curves. However, contrary to that of the melt‐mixed blends, the glass transition temperature (T_g) of the in‐situ ones decreases with increasing PA6co6T content. It is suggested that different mixing levels are the main reasons. Moreover, the addition of PA6co6T containing linear rigid segments conducts remarkable refinement of spherulites for the blends. Significantly different changes in the crystallographic form, spherulite size, crystalline content and perfection due to the introduction of PA6co6T for the two blends are ascribed to their varied thermomechanical histories and the presence of interchange reaction only for the in‐situ blends. On the basis of the characterizations of the microstructures, the different trends of changes in the mechanical properties with the addition of PA6co6T for the two fabrication methods are discussed. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Photocyclization of 2-[1]benzothien-3-yl)-3-phenylpropenoic acids

Photocyclization of the substituted 2-([1]benzothien-3-yl)-3-phenylpropenoic acids 3a-c in the presence of iodine and air in a benzene-cyclohexane mixture afforded a separable mixture of three compounds, benzo[b]naphtho[2,1-d]thiophene-6-carboxylic acids 4a-c , 6H-benzo[b]naphtho[2,3-d]thiopyran-6-ones 5a-c , and 10-methoxy-2-methyl-6H-benzo[b]naphtho[2,3-d]pyran-6-one ( 6 ).     

Reaction of N‐(phenyl and methyl)‐C‐arylnitrones with DMAD in ionic liquid: Efficient synthesis of Δ4‐isoxazolines

Facile synthesis of N‐(methyl and phenyl)‐Δ⁴‐isoxazolines via the reaction of (Z)‐N‐(methyl and phenyl)‐C‐arylnitrones with dimethyl acethylenedicarboxylate, DMAD, in ionic liquid is described. (Z)‐N‐methyl‐C‐arylnitrones afforded the high yield of N‐methyl‐Δ⁴‐isoxazolines 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e in ionic liquid, [bmim]BF₄, at room temperature. However, the reaction of (Z)‐N‐phenyl‐C‐arylnitrones with DMAD afforded the mixtures of cis and trans isomers of related N‐phenyl‐Δ⁴‐isoxazolines ( 5a , 5b , 5c , 5d , 5e , 5f , 5g , 5h , 5i , 5j , 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j ) under these conditions.

Synthesis and Antimicrobial Activities of Novel 2‐[substituted‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl] Benzothiazoles,Benzoxazoles, and Benzimidazoles

In an endeavor to find a new class of antimicrobial agents, a series of novel substituted benzimidazole, benzoxazole, and benzothiazole derivatives 6 containing pyrazole moiety have been synthesized by reaction of 3‐aryl‐4‐formyl pyrazole 4 with substituted phenylenediamine or o‐aminophenol or o‐aminothiophenol 5 . Reaction of phenyl hydrazine or 2‐hydrazinopyridine 1 with substituted acetophenones 2 gave the corresponding hydrazones 3 , which on Vilsmeier–Haack reaction with POCl₃–DMF gave substituted 3‐aryl‐4‐formyl pyrazoles 4 . All final compounds 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g , 6h , 6i , 6j , 6k were evaluated for in vitro antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains and in vitro antifungal activity against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger strains by using serial dilution method. The antimicrobial activities were expressed as the minimum inhibitory concentration in µg/mL. The compound containing benzimidazole and benzoxazole moiety gave better antibacterial and antifungal activities than benzothiazole compounds.     

On the Diastereoselectivity of the Aqueous-Acid-Catalyzed Intramolecular Aldol Condensation of 3-Oxocyclohexaneacetaldehydes

The factors responsible for the diastereoselective formation of the 6-endo-hydroxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-one by acid-catalyzed intramolecular aldol reaction of 3-oxocyclohexaneacetaldehydes have been investigated. This study, carried out on (1SR,4RS,6RS)-6-hydroxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-one 1a , (1SR,4RS,6SR)-6-hydroxybicyclo[2.2.2]octan-2-one 1b , and 3,3-(ethylenedioxy)cyclohexaneacetaldehyde 2a , allowed to demonstrate the absence of intramolecular H-bonding in 1a as a stabilizing factor, and to ascertain the presence of unfavorable steric interactions in 1b .     

Über Pterinchemie 80. Mitteilung Die Herstellung von (6RS)Tetra- und (6RS)Pentaacetyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L-bioplerinen

Preparation of (6RS)Tetra- and (6RS)-Pentaacetyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L-biopterines Boiling of (6RS) l′-O,2′-O,2-N-triacetyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L-biopterine in acetic anhydride as described in [2], leads to a mixture of the diastereoisomeric (6R)- and (65)-l′-O,2′-O,2-N-,5,8-pentaacetyl-5,6,7,8-L,-biopterines. One of the diastereoisomers can be obtained as pure crystals. It corresponds to the pentaacetate of the natural (6R)- or (6S).,5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L-biopterine. For the preparation of the earlier described (6RS)- and (6S)-tetraacetyl-tetrahydro-L-biopterines [2] improved conditions are reported.     

Proton affinities of molecules containing nitrogen and oxygen: comparing ab initio and semiempirical results to experiments

We report a comparison of theoretical and experimental proton affinities at nitrogen and oxygen sites within a series of small molecules. The calculated proton affinities are determined using the semiempirical methods AM 1, MNDO , and PM 3; the ab initio Hartree–Fock method at the following basis levels: 3-21G //3-21G , 3-21+G //3-21G , 6-31G *//6-31G *, and 6-31+G (d, p)//6-31G *; and Møller–Plesset perturbation calculations: MP 2/6-31G *//6-31G *, MP 3/6-31G *//6-31G *, MP 2/6-31G +(d, p)//6-31G *, MP 3/6-31G +(d, p)//6-31G *, and MP 4(SDTQ )/6-31G +G (d, p)//6-31G *. The semiempirical methods have more nonsystematic scatter from the experimental values, compared to even the minimal 3-21G level ab initio calculations. The thermodynamically corrected 6-31G *//6-31G * proton affinities provide acceptable results compared to experiment, and we see no significant improvement over 6-31G *//6-31G * in the proton affinities with any of the higher-level calculations. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Self-Assembling Properties of 6-O- and 6′-O-Alkylsucrose Mixtures Having Different Chain Lengths Under Aqueous Conditions

The self-assembling properties of the 6-O- and 6′-O-alkylsucrose mixtures with different chain lengths including octyl, decyl, dodecyl, and tetradecyl under aqueous conditions were studied and compared with those of the 6-O- and 6′-O-hexadecylsucrose mixture previously reported. The title compounds were synthesized from sucrose in five steps. The results of scanning and transmission electron microscopes, powder X-ray diffraction, and dynamic light scattering measurements indicated that the self-assembling properties of octyl, decyl, and dodecyl derivatives were completely different from those of the 6-O- and 6′-O-hexadecylsucrose mixture. The three derivatives reported here primarily formed lamellar planes, which further induced the formation of vesicle-type particles under aqueous conditions, whereas the previous derivatives primarily formed spherical micelles in water, which further assembled according to face-centered cubic organization by a drying process from the aqueous dispersion. It was also found that the 6-O- and 6′-O-tetradecylsucrose mixture showed concentration-induced micelle-lamellar transition behavior in an aqueous dispersion. Furthermore, the mixing of a regioisomer, 6′-O-hexadecylsucrose, with 6-O-hexadecylsucrose induced different self-assembling properties from that of 6-O-hexadecylsucrose alone, but this effect did not appear in the self-assembling of the 6-O- and 6′-O-octylsucrose mixture.     

A new type of deoxygenation of quinoxaline N-oxides

The reaction of 6-chloro-2-[2-(p-chlorobenzylidene)-1-methylhydrazino]quinoxaline 4-oxide 3a or 2-[2-(p-bromobenzylidene)-1-methylhydrazino]-6-chloroquinoxaline 4-oxide 3b with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate under reflux in N,N-dimethylformamide resulted in deoxygenation to give 6-chloro-2-[2-(p-chlorobenzylidene)-1-methylhydrazino]quinoxaline 4a or 2-[2-(p-bromobenzilidene)-1-methylhydrazino]-6-chloroquinoxaline 4b , respectively, while the reaction of compound 3a or 3b with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate under reflux in dioxane precipitated dimethyl 8-chloro-4-[2-(p-chlorobenzyli-dene)-1-methylhydrazino]-3aH-isoxazolo[2,3-a]quinoxaline-2,3-dicarboxylate 6a or dimethyl 4-[2-(p-bromobenzylidene)-1-methylhydrazino]-8-chloro-3aH-isoxazolo[2,3-a]quinoxaline-2,3-dicarboxylate 6b , respectively. Further refluxing of compound 6a or 6b in N,N-dimethylformamide provided compound 4a or 4b , respectively.

Conformational analysis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroic acid and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid In the 360-MHz-¹H-NMR.-spectrum of (6R, S)-9,9-dideuterio-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydropteroic acid (racemic) (XIII) (AMX-System, Fig. 4) and (6R, S)-9,9-dideuterio-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid (diastereomeric) (XVI) the H_a–C(6) and H_a–C(7) show a vicinal coupling constant of 6,7 Hz and the H_a–C(6) and H_e–C(7) one of 3,2 Hz. The first coupling constant provides evidence for an approximate trans-diaxal arrangement of H_a–C(6) and H_a–C(7), and the second for a gauche conformation of H_a–C(6) and H_e–C(7). The tetrahydropyrazine ring in the racemic 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydropteroic acid (III) and in the diastereomeric 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid (XVII) exists therefore in a half-chair conformation with a pseudoequatorial position of the side chain at C(6) (Fig.5).     

An Innovative Protocol for the Synthesis of 3‐(Pyridin‐2‐yl)‐5‐sec‐aminobiphenyl‐4‐carbonitriles and 9,10‐Dihydro‐3‐(pyridine‐2‐yl)‐1‐sec‐aminophenanthrene‐2‐carbonitriles

Herein, we present an innovative, novel, and highly convenient protocol for the synthesis of 3‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)‐5‐sec‐aminobiphenyl‐4‐carbonitriles ( 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g ) and 9,10‐dihydro‐3‐(pyridine‐2‐yl)‐1‐sec‐aminophenanthrene‐2‐carbonitriles ( 10a , 10b , 10c , 10d , 10e ), which have been delineated from the reaction of 4‐sec‐amino‐2‐oxo‐6‐aryl‐2H‐pyran‐3‐carbonitrile ( 4a , 4b , 4c , 4d , 4e , 4f , 4g ) and 4‐sec‐amino‐2‐oxo‐5,6‐dihydro‐2H‐benzo[h]chromene‐3‐carbonitriles ( 9a , 9b , 9c , 9d , 9e ) with 2‐acetylpyridine ( 5 ) through the ring transformation reaction by using KOH/DMF system at RT. The salient feature of this procedure is to provide a transition metal‐free route for the synthesis of asymmetrical 1,3‐teraryls like 3‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)‐5‐sec‐aminobiphenyl‐4‐carbonitriles ( 6a , 6b , 6c , 6d , 6e , 6f , 6g ) and 9,10‐dihydro‐3‐(pyridine‐2‐yl)‐1‐sec‐aminophenanthrene‐2‐carbonitriles ( 10a , 10b , 10c , 10d , 10e ). The novelty of the reaction lies in the creation of an aromatic ring from 2H‐pyran‐2‐ones and 2H‐benzo[h]chromene‐3‐carbonitriles via two‐carbon insertion from 2‐acetylpyridine ( 5 ) used as a source of carbanion.     

A new ring transformation of 3-halo-2-azidopyridine 1-oxides. A novel synthesis of 1,2-oxazin-6-ones

The course of the thermal ring-opening and recyclization of 2-azidopyridine 1-oxides is radically altered by the presence of a 3-halo substituent. Provided the 6-position is blocked, recyclization leads to a 6-cyano-6-halo-1,2-oxazine which hydrolyzes very readily to the 6H-1,2-oxazin-6-one. The structure of 4-bromo-3-methyl-6H-1,2-oxazin-6-one so obtained was confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis. If the 6-position is not blocked, the product undergoes a further ring opening to give (Z)-β-cyanoacrylates.     

Anatoliosides: Five Novel Acyclic Monoterpene Glylcosides from Viburnum orientale

Five new acyclic monoterpene glycosides 1 – 5 were isolated from the leaves of Viburnum orientale (Caprifoliaceae). Anatolioside ( 1 ) is a monoterpene diglycoside and its structure was elucidated as linalo-6-yl 2′-O-(α-L -rhamnopyranosyl)β-D -glucopyranoside (arbitrary numbering of linalool moiety). Compounds 2 – 5 are all derivatives of 1 , containing additional monoterpene and sugar units, connected by ester and glycoside bonds. Their structures were established as linalo-6-yl O-[(2E,6R)-6-hydroxy-2, 6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoyl]-(1? → 4″)-O-α-L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1″? → 2″″)-β-D -glucopyranoside ( = anatolioside A; 2 ), linalo-6-yl O-β-D -glucopyranosyl-(1? → 6?)-O-[(2E,6R)-6-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoyl]-(1? → 4″)-O-α-L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1″ → 2′)–β-D -glucopyranoside ( = anatolioside B; 3 ), linalo-6-yl O-β-D ribo-hexopyranos-3-ulosyl-(1′? → 6?)-O-[(2E,6R)-6-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoyl]-(1? → 4″)-O-α-L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1″ → 2′)-β-D -glucopyranoside ( = anatolioside C; 4 ) and linalo-6-yl O-[(2E, 6R)-6-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoyl]-(1″? → 2″″)-O-β-D -glucopyranosly-(1″″ → 6?)-O-[(2E,6R)-6-hydroxy-2,6-dimethylocta-2,7-dienoyl]-(1? → 4″)-O-α-L -rhamnopyranosyl(1″ → 2′)-β-D -glucopyranoside ( = anatolioside D ; 5 ). The structure determinations were based on spectroscopic and chemical methods (acid and alkaline hydrolysis, acetylation and methylation).
