Studies on the chemistry of O,N- and S,N-containing heterocycles. 4 . Investigations on the nucleophilic substitution of activated 1,5-benzothiazepines

The reaction of the activated 1,5-benzothiazepine 1a with various amines is studied. In contrast to the phenylsubstituted derivative 1b no ring contraction but nucleophilic substitution is observed. Two novel ring systems 8 and 9 are obtained by nitrosation of 3g and by reaction of 1a with anthranilic acid, respectively.     

Deamination,involving ring opening,in reactions of 1-aminopurinium mesitylenesulfonates with methanolic amonia

On reaction of 1-aminopurinium mesitylenesulfonates with methanolec ammonia N-deamintion occurs. For 1-amino-, 1-amino-8-(methylthio)-, 1-amino-8-phenyl-, 1-amino-2-methyl-, 1-amino-6-methyl- and 1-amino-8-phenyl-9-methyl-purinium mesitylenesulfonate this reaction proceeds for at least 75% via ring opening as shown by the isolation of 1-¹⁵N-labelled purines when ¹⁵N-labelled methanolic ammonia was used. 1-Amino-9-methylpurinium mesitylenesulfonate gave N-deamination without ring opening. The reaction of 1-amino-6-(methylthio)purinium mesitylenesulfonate with methanolic ammonia involves, besides deamination, partial substitution of the methylthio group; no ring opening is involved. However, ring opening followed by substitution occurs in the reaction of 1-amino-2-(methylthio)purinium mesitylenesulfonate; the reaction proceeds via an adduct at position 2.

Highly efficient, base-catalysed, intramolecular hydroamination of non-activated olefins

The intramolecular hydroamination of a large variety of non-activated alkenes can be efficiently catalysed by small amounts of lithium bases, providing smoothly and in high yields the corresponding five- and six-membered ring heterocycles. Fused and bridged bicyclic amines, of varying ring sizes, can be readily prepared either by a sequential hydroamination process or by a tandem, double addition reaction.     

General one-pot, three-step methodology leading to an extended class of N-heterocyclic cations: spontaneous nucleophilic addition, cyclization, and hydride loss

A new class of phenanthridinium derivative has been isolated from the reaction of 2-bromoethyl-phenanthridinium bromide with a range of primary amines in excellent yields. The reaction pathway is unprecedented and proceeds via three cascade steps: nucleophilic attack of a primary amine on the iminium moiety of a heteroaromatic ring system and cyclization to form a five-membered ring, followed by hydride loss to yield a rearomatized dihydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-f]phenanthridinium derivative. A range of NMR phase transfer experiments were carried out to elucidate the mechanistic pathway, and the methodology has been further developed by means of a biphasic system using N-bromosuccinimide as a co-oxidizing agent. The method has also been extended to other N-heterocyclic cation derivatives such as quinolinium and quinazolinium.     

Regioselective orthopalladation of (Z)-2-aryl-4-arylidene-5(4H)-oxazolones: scope, kinetico-mechanistic, and density functional theory studies of the C-H bond activation

Orthopalladated complexes derived from (Z)-2-aryl-4-arylidene-5(4H)-oxazolones have been prepared by reaction of the oxazolone with palladium acetate in acidic medium. The reaction is regioselective, only the ortho C-H bond of the arylidene ring being activated, producing a six-membered ring. The scope and reaction conditions of the orthopalladation are dependent on the acidity of the solvent. In CF(3)CO(2)H a large number of oxazolones can be metalated under mild conditions. As acidity decreases a lesser number of oxazolones can be efficiently palladated and harsher conditions must be used to achieve similar yields. The C-H bond activation in acidic medium agrees with an ambiphilic mechanism, as determined from kinetic measurements at variable temperature and pressure for different oxazolones substituted at the arylidene ring. The mechanism has been confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, where the formation of the six-membered ring is shown to be favored from both a kinetic and a thermodynamic perspective. In addition, the dependence of the reaction rate on the acidity of the medium has also been accounted for via a fine-tuning between the C-H agostic precoordination and the proton abstraction reaction in the overall process occurring on coordinatively saturated [Pd(κ(N)-oxazolone)(RCO(2)H)(3)](2+).     

Copper-catalyzed three-component reaction of ethynylstibanes,organic azides,and selenium: A simple and efficient synthesis of novel selenides and diselenides having 1,2,3-triazole rings

A simple method for the synthesis of monoselenides and diselenides having 1,2,3-triazole ring is described herein. The three component reaction of ethynylstibanes, organic azides, and selenium powder is catalyzed by CuI (10?mol%) using 1,10-phenanthroline as the ligand (10?mol%) under aerobic conditions. Either selenides or diselenides can be synthesized by selecting the appropriate amount of selenium powder for otherwise identical reaction conditions. The obtained selenides and diselenides having a 1,2,3-triazole ring are all novel compounds. By using an antimony reagent, this one-pot reaction provides regioselective double Se-arylation under simple reaction conditions.

Direct carbonylation at a C-H bond in the benzene ring of 2-phenyloxazolines catalyzed by Ru(3)(CO)(12). Scope, limitations, and mechanistic aspects

The ruthenium-catalyzed carbonylation at a C-H bond in the benzene ring of a 2-phenyloxazoline is described. The reaction of 2-phenyloxazolines with CO and ethylene in toluene in the presence of a catalytic amount of Ru(3)(CO)(12) resulted in propionylation at an ortho C-H bond in the benzene ring. The presence of the oxazoline ring on the benzene ring is essential for the carbonylation to proceed. Other heterocycles, such as oxazine, oxazole, and thiazoline rings, also served as acceptable directing groups as did the oxazoline ring. A wide functional group compatibility was observed. The site selectivity of the carbonylation was examined using meta-substituted phenyloxazolines. It was found that the carbonylation took place exclusively at the less-hindered C-H bond, irrespective of the nature of substituents, indicating that the site selectivity was determined by steric factors. The reaction was also applicable, not only to a benzene ring, but also to naphthyl and thiophenyl rings. Olefins such as propene and trimethylvinylsilane in place of ethylene could also be used in the carbonylation reaction, while other olefins, such as 1-hexene, tert-butylethylene, vinylcyclohexane, isoprene, 1,5-hexadiene, cyclohexene, 1, 5-cyclooctadiene, styrene, methyl acrylate, vinyl acetate, allyltrimethylsilane, and triethoxyvinylsilane did not afford the coupling products. An equilibrium between 2-phenyloxazolines, carbon monoxide, and olefins exists on one hand and the corresponding ketones on the other hand, and product composition is governed by the equilibrium thermodynamics of the system. The results of deuterium labeling experiments suggest that the catalysis involves a reversible C-H bond cleavage and that the rate-determining step is not the cleavage of a C-H bond. The results of kinetic study of the effects of CO pressure show that the reaction rate accelerates with decreasing CO pressure.     

Total synthesis of (-)-incarvilline, (+)-incarvine C, and (-)-incarvillateine

The first total syntheses of new monoterpene alkaloids (-)-incarvilline, (+)-incarvine C, and (-)-incarvillateine, corresponding to the natural enantiomers, have been accomplished. The strategy for the synthesis of these natural products utilized 6-epi-incarvilline as a common precursor, which was assembled by a three-component coupling reaction using (4S)-4-siloxy-2-cyclopenten-1-one to construct an appropriately trisubstituted cyclopentanone, followed by ring closure to the cis-perhydro-2-pyrindine skeleton by means of a reductive Heck-type reaction. Furthermore, topochemically controlled [2 + 2] photodimerization of cinnamic acid derivatives in the solid state for the stereospecific construction of a 1,2,3,4-tetrasubstituted cyclobutane ring was also investigated as a means to access (-)-incarvillateine.     

Domino synthetic strategy for tetrahydrothiophene derivatives from 2-acetylfuran/2-acetylthiophene,benzaldehydes, and sulfur powder

A domino reaction from 2-acetylfuran/2-acetylthiophene, benzaldehydes and sulfur powder has been developed to synthesize a series of tetrahydrothiophene derivatives. The reaction proceeds well to construct five new bonds and a tetrahydrothiophene ring by one-pot. A possible mechanism was proposed, involving a stepwise of Aldol/double Michael addition/internal S_N2 cascaded reaction with sulfur powder acts as a source of sulfur. This method is characterized by mild reaction conditions, commercially available starting materials and transition-metal-free.     

Theoretical study of the heptamethylbenzenium ion. Intramolecular isomerizations and C2, C3, C4 alkene elimination

Recent experimental work on the methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) reaction in zeolite H-Beta suggests that the heptamethylbenzenium (heptaMB+) cation is an important intermediate. We have carried out quantum chemical calculations to investigate intramolecular isomerization reactions and eliminations of small alkenes such as ethene, propene, and isobutene from heptaMB+ isomers. Two types of reaction paths have been investigated for the alkene formation: One starting with an initial ring contraction, and one starting with an initial ring expansion of the heptaMB+ ion. The reaction starting with an initial ring contraction leads to a bicyclic species that may split off propene or, after further isomerizations, isobutene. Expansion to a seven-membered ring may, via further isomerizations, lead to formation of ethyl and isopropyl groups that may in turn be split off as ethene and propene. The calculations have been carried out at the B3LYP/cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level of theory with zero point energy corrections. Comparisons with experimental data are made where possible.     

3, 6-endoxocyclohexanes and -cyclohexenes. XXV. Some reactions of dimethyl 4,5-(1-benzyl-1, 2, 3-triazoline)-3, 6-endoxohexahydrophthalate

The anhydride and dimethyl ester of 4, 5-(1-benzyl-1, 2, 3-triazoline)-3, 6-endohexahydrophthalic acid, having a triazoline ring with an exo-cis configuration, are synthesized by reaction of benzyl azide with the furan-maleic anhydride adduct. Opening of the triazoline ring under the action of hydrochloric and acetic acids takes place with the separation of nitrogen and formation of the chloro and acetoxy derivatives, respectively, unaccompanied by a Wagner-Meerwein type of rearrangement.Part XXIV, see [1].

1,5,-Electrocyclizations—An Important Principle of Heterocyclic Chemistry

The principle of orbital control of pericyclic reactions has deepened our understanding of reaction phenomena and provided an excellent classification of these one-step processes. The electrocyclic reaction of the pentadienyl anion ? cyclopentenyl anion type is relatively unimportant in all-carbon systems and has not even been verified in the case of the parent compound. In the heterocyclic series, however, where up to five C-atoms of the pentadienyl anion are replaced by heteroatoms, a multitude of ring closures and ring openings find their ordering principle in the mentioned electrocyclic reaction. The replacement of the carbon atoms by heteroatoms can take place isoinically, i. e., with retention of the anionic character, or isoelectronically. An isoelectronic replacement of CR₂ in position 1 by NR₂ OR, and or CR in position 3 by NR or O leads to a charge-free resonance structure for the open-chain species; the migration of the charge during the electrocyclization results in a correlation with a cyclic zwitterion. Conversely, isoelectronic exchange of CR in position 2 by NR or O produces a conjugated 1,3-dipole, which cyclizes to a charge-free unsaturated five-membered ring. Twofold isoelectronic exchange allows the whole process to take place in a cation. Selected examples are to shed light on the classification and the thermodynamics of this electrocyclic reaction.     

Asymmetric Ring‐Opening of Cyclopropyl Ketones with Thiol,Alcohol, and Carboxylic Acid Nucleophiles Catalyzed by a Chiral N,N′‐Dioxide–Scandium(III) Complex

A highly efficient asymmetric ring‐opening reaction of cyclopropyl ketones with a broad range of thiols, alcohols and carboxylic acids has been first realized by using a chiral N,N′‐dioxide–scandium(III) complex as catalyst. The corresponding sulfides, ethers, and esters were obtained in up to 99 % yield and 95 % ee. This is also the first example of one catalytic system working for the ring‐opening reaction of donor–acceptor cyclopropanes with three different nucleophiles, let alone in an asymmetric version.     

N-Heterocyclic carbenes from ylides of indolyl-imidazolium,azaindolyl-imidazolium,and indolyl-triazolium salts,and their borane adducts

Indol-2-yl-imidazolium salts were deprotonated at N1 of the indole ring to give ylides. Their tautomeric N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) were trapped by sulfur to give imidazole-2-thiones. Treatment of the ylides with triethylborane resulted in the formation of zwitterionic borane adducts. An analogous sequence of reactions was performed with 8-azaindol-2-yl-imidazolium salts, which served as precursor to prepare first representatives of a new heterocyclic ring system on reaction of their NHC-tautomers with triethylborane. Similarly, an indol-2-yl-1,2,4-triazolium salt was examined with respect to ylide–NHC tautomerism and trapping reactions. A nucleophilic ring transformation of indol-3-amine with a 1,3,4-oxadiazolium salt gave an indol-3-yl-triazolium salt, which was converted into a triazolethione by trapping of the tautomeric N-heterocyclic carbene of its ylide.     

Synthesis of lactams by radical substitution reaction of alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl radicals at amine nitrogen

[reaction: see text] Substitution at nitrogen by alpha,beta-unsaturated acyl radicals took place accompanied by elimination of an alpha-phenethyl radical. This reaction led to the development of a new carbonylative annulation method for five- to seven-membered ring lactams.

A novel multicomponent reaction of arynes, beta-keto sulfones, and michael-type acceptors: a direct synthesis of polysubstituted naphthols and naphthalenes

A novel multicomponent reaction of arynes, beta-keto sulfones, and Michael-type acceptors is presented, providing an efficient method for the synthesis of polysubstituted naphthols and polysubstituted naphthalenes. Further investigation suggests that the tandem reaction may proceed via a sequential nucleophilic attack to arynes, intramolecular nucleophilic substitution followed by a Michael addition, and a ring closure-elimination process.
