The radical cation of hydrogen sulfide and related organic reactions

The electrochemical and chemical oxidation (by hinderedo-benzoquinones or NOClO₄) of H₂S in nonaqueous solutions (MeCN) proceeds with the donation of one electron. The formation of the unstable radical cation of hydrogen sulfide was detected by cyclic voltammetry. The radical cation decomposes to form H⁺ and the HS^. radical. The generation of the hydrogen sulfide radical cation was confirmed by ESR spectroscopy in a frozen Freon matrix. The possibility of using the hydrogen sulfide radical cation in the synthesis of organosulfur compounds under mild conditions was studied. The concept of the work was proposed by Prof. O. Yu. Okhlobystin. The first electrochemical experiments were performed when he was alive. Published inIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1182–1188, July, 2000.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Some Novel Multisubstituted 6,7-Dihydro-5H-cyclopenta[b]pyridine Derivatives

In this study, we describe systematic preparation of a series of aryl-substituted pyridine derivatives. The 1,5-dicarbonyls (3a–i) were prepared in the solvent-free conditions starting from chalcone derivatives (1a–i). The target compounds, 4-aryl-2-(thiophen-3-yl)-6,7-dihydro-5H-cyclopenta[b]-pyridine derivatives (5a–i), were synthesized by a cyclization reaction of the 1,5-dicarbonyls (3a–i) with ammonium acetate (NH₄OAc) in acetic acid. The characterization of synthesized compounds was proved by elemental analyses, infrared, mass spectrometry, and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.

Synthesis of 6-[4-(allyl/phenyl)-5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]pyrimidine-2,4-diones and their reaction with electrophiles

Cyclization of 1-(2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-6-yl)carbonyl-4-R-thiosemicarbazides in basic medium gave 6-(4-R-5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4-diones (R = Allyl, Ph). Alkylation of the latter with iodomethane occurred at the sulphur atom to give the corresponding methylsulfanyl derivatives. Acetylation using acetyl chloride occurred at the N₍₁₎ atom of the triazole ring to the corresponding acetyl derivative when R = Ph but for R = Allyl the acetylation did not occur under the same conditions. In the presence of bromine in refluxing methanol the indicated allyl-substituted compound cyclizes to 6-bromomethyl-3-(2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-6-yl)-5,6-dihydrothiazolo[2,3-c]-1,2,4-triazole. Under Mannich and bromination conditions the methylsulfanyl derivatives prepared form derivatives at the 5 position of the uracil ring: 5-methylmorpholino-(piperidino)-and 5-bromo-(4-R-5-thioxo-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyrimidine-2,4-diones respectively. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 906–912, June, 2006.     

Photochemical properties and the structure of 6-methyl-2,4-diphenyl-1-(p-tolyl)pyrimidinium perchlorate and the product of its photocyclization

The structure and photochemical properties of 6-methyl-2,4-diphenyl-1-(p-tolyl)pyrimidinium perchlorate (1) and 4,8-dimethyl-2-phenylpyrimido[1,2-f]phenanthridinium (2) formed as a result of photocyclization of1 have been studied. The crystal structure of compound1 has been studied at –140 °C and 25 °C. In cation1, theN-tolyl substituent and -Ph ring are noncoplanar with the pyrimidinium fragment (the angles are 67.9° and 41.1°, respectively), while the angle between the -Ph ring and the pyrimidinium moiety is only 7.1° (–140 °C). The photocyclization product2 has a flattened structure.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

The title compound ethyl 2-(6-(1,3-dioxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-isoindol-2(3H)-yl)-7-fluoro-3-oxo-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-4(3H)-yl) butanoate 3 was synthesized by the reaction of ethyl 2-(6-amino-7-fluoro-3-oxo-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-4(3H)-yl) butanoate with 4,5,6,7-tetraydrophthalic anhydride,and its structure was determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction.The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system,space group P21/n with a = 9.3469(2),b = 16.7715(5),c = 13.7153(4) ,β = 104.9680(10)°,μ = 0.107 mm-1,Mr = 430.42,V = 2077.08(10) 3,Z = 4,Dc = 1.376 g/cm3,F(000) = 904,T = 296(2) K,R = 0.0508 and wR = 0.1478.

Synthesis and properties of 4,9-methanoundecafulvenes and their transformation to 3-substituted 7,12-methanocycloundeca[4,5]furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones: photo-induced autorecycling oxidizing reaction toward amines

The synthesis and properties of 4,9-methanoundecafulvene [5-(4,9-methanocycloundeca-2′,4′,6′,8′,10′-pentaenylidene)pyrimidine-2,4,6(1,3,5H)-trione] derivatives 8a,b were studied. Their structural characteristics were investigated on the basis of the ¹H and ¹³C NMR and UV-vis spectra. The rotational barrier (ΔG^‡) around the exocyclic double bond of 8a was found to be 12.55 kcal mol⁻¹ by the variable temperature ¹H NMR measurement. The electrochemical properties of 8a,b were also studied by CV measurement. Furthermore, the transformation of 8a,b to 3-substituted 7,12-methanocycloundeca[4,5]furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-diones 16a,b was accomplished by oxidative cyclization using DDQ and subsequent ring-opening and ring-closure. The structural details and chemical properties of 16a,b were clarified. Reaction of 16a with deuteride afforded C13-adduct 19 as the single product, and thus, the methano-bridge controls the nucleophilic attack to prefer endo-selectivity. The photo-induced oxidation reaction of 16a and a vinylogous compound, 3-methylcyclohepta[4,5]furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione 2a, toward some amines under aerobic conditions were carried out to give the corresponding imines (isolated by converting to the corresponding 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones) with the recycling number of 6.1-64.0 (for 16a) and 2.7-17.2 (for 2a), respectively.     

Purines, pyrimidines, and related fused systems. 21. Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione

Oxidative amination of 3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-dione with primary alkylamines and potassium amide in liquid ammonia gives rise to the corresponding 4-amino derivatives as the major products. The reactions with acyclic secondary amines are accompanied by annelation of the pyrrole moiety to the starting heterosystem to form 1-R-3-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[2",3";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones. The reaction with piperidine as the aminating agent occurs exclusively as aminodehalogenation. The Sonogashira cross-coupling of 4-amino-3-chloro-6,8-dimethylpyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-5,7(6H,8H)-diones with terminal alkynes affords 1-R-2-R"-6,8-dimethylpyrrolo[3",2";3,4]pyrimido[4,5-c]pyridazine-7,9(6H,8H)-diones.
