A green method for the electroorganic synthesis of new 1,3-Indandione derivatives

This is an environmentally friendly method in the field of electroorganic reactions under controlled potential electrolysis, without toxic reagents at a carbon electrode in an undivided cell which involves the (EC) mechanism reaction and comprises two steps alternatively; (i) electrochemical oxidation and (ii) chemical reaction. In particular, the electrochemical oxidation of 4-tert-butylcatechol, 4-methylcatechol and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid in the presence of 2-phenyl-1,3-indandione has been studied in a water-acetonitrile (90 : 10) mixture. The research includes the use of a variety of experimental techniques, such as cyclic voltammetry, controlled-potential electrolysis, and spectroscopic identification of products (FT-IR, (1)H-NMR, and MS spectrometry).

Metal ion catalysis in the beta-elimination reactions of N-[2-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium and N-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium in aqueous solution

Catalysis of the beta-elimination reaction of N-[2-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium (1) and N-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium (2) by Zn(2+) and Cd(2+) in OH(-)/H(2)O (pH = 5.20-6.35, 50 degrees C, and mu = 1 M KCl) has been studied. In the presence of Zn(2+), the elimination reactions of both isomers occur from the Zn(2+)-complexed substrates (C). The equilibrium constants for the dissociation of the Zn(2+)-complexes are as follows: K(d) = 0.012 +/- 0.003 M (isomer 1) and K(d) = 0.065 +/- 0.020 M (isomer 2). The value of k(C)(H2O) for isomer 1 is 4.81 x 10(-6) s(-1). For isomer 2 both the rate constants for the "water" and OH(-)-induced reaction of the Zn(2+)-complexed substrate could be measured, despite the low concentration of OH(-) in the investigated reaction mixture [k(C)H2O)= 1.97 x 10(-6) s(-1) and k(C)(OH-)= 21.9 M(-1) s(-1), respectively]. The measured metal activating factor (MetAF), i.e., the reactivity ratio between the complexed and the uncomplexed substrate, is 8.1 x 10(4) for the OH(-)-induced elimination of 2. This high MetAF can be compared with the corresponding proton activating factor (Alunni, S.; Conti, A.; Palmizio Errico, R. J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2 2000, 453), PAF = 1.5 x 10(6) and is in agreement with an E1cb irreversible mechanism (A(xh)D(E)* + D(N)) (Guthrie, R. D.; Jencks, W. P. Acc. Chem. Res. 1989, 22, 343). A value of k(C)(H2O)>or= 23 x 10(-7) s(-1) is estimated for the Cd(2+)-complexed isomer 2, while catalysis by Cd(2+) has not been observed for isomer 1.     

A convenient method for the synthesis of 2-[(5-benzyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)imino]-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one derivatives

It was found that the reaction of 2-chloroacetamido/chloropropioamido-5-benzylthiazole with potassium thiocyanate gave, via rearrangement, 2-[(5-benzyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)imino]-1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones.     

Pulse radiolysis of 2-[(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride in aqueous solution

The early stages of the polymerization of 2-[(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethyl ammonium chloride (MADQUAT) in aqueous solution were studied by pulse radiolysis. The rate constant of the reaction of this monomer with OH√ and hydrated electron was measured as 1.5×10¹⁰ and 2.2×10¹⁰ dm³mol⁻¹s⁻¹, respectively. The absorption spectrum of the OH√ adduct to MADQUAT molecule appeared to have a maximum at 290 nm. Its decay depends on the monomer concentration. The shape and maximum of the absorption spectrum of electron adduct to the monomer depend on pH of the solution. In acidic solution, radical anion is formed. It subsequently undergoes reversible protonation giving spectrum with a maximum below 260 nm. In basic solution the spectrum has a maximum at 290 nm. In this case irreversible protonation takes place at the β-carbon atom, giving an -centred carbon radical.     

A facile large scale synthesis of optically active 3-amino-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one derivatives

A facile method for the synthesis of 3-amino-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-ones (8) mediated by benzotriazole is described. The synthesis and optical resolution of the product by fractional crystallisation proceeds in high yield, under mild conditions and without recourse to toxic reagents or chromatographic separations and hence is amenable to the large scale preparation of these important precursors to potent CCK receptor ligands.     

A green approach for the electrochemical synthesis of 4-morpholino-2-(arylsulfonyl)benzenamines

Electrochemical synthesis of 4-morpholino-2-arylsulfonyl-benzamines was carried out by the electrochemical oxidation of 4-morpholinoaniline in the presence of arenesulfinic acids at a carbon electrode, in aqueous solution. Our voltammetric data indicate that electrochemically generated p-quinone-diimine participates in Michael type addition reaction with arenesulfinic acids and via an EC mechanism converts to the title products. This method provides a green, one-pot procedure for the synthesis of 4-morpholino-2-(arylsulfonyl)benzenamines of potential biological significance.     

Algorithmic Search for Mesomorphic Compounds in the Series of 4'-[(5,6-Dihydro-4-methyl-2H-pyran-5-yl)- amino]benzylidene-4-alkoxyanilines

A computer analysis of the relationship between the structure and mesomorphic activity and a search for potentially mesomorphic compounds in the series of azomethines containing a dihydropyranyl fragment, 4'-[(5,6-dihydro-4-methyl-2H-pyran-5-yl)amino]benzylidene-4-alkoxyanilines, were performed using the SARD (Structure Activity Relationship Design) system. The structural fragments exerting positive and negative effects on the manifestation of mesomorphism were revealed. The mesomorphic activity of the training structures and the extent of their similarity with the hypothetical standard of the activity were evaluated. The predictions show 70% agreement with the experiment.     

A new procedure for the synthesis of 2-[(4-dodecyloxyphenyl)sulfonyl]butanoic acid

A new, practical and cost-effective route for scalable synthesis of 2-[(4-dodecyloxyphenyl)sulfonyl] butanoic acid, a key intermediate of a new cyan dye-forming coupler containing a sulfone group, was developed by adopting phenol as the starting material. The synthesis was accomplished in five steps with etherification, chlorosulfonation, reduction, nucleophilic reaction by C-S coupling and hydrolyzation. An important objective of the new synthetic route was the synthesis of 2-[4-(dodecyloxyphenyl)sulfonyl]butanoate. Overall yield obtained at optimized conditions increased to 66 %. The synthetic strategy was proven to be a process enabling rapid delivery of the target product with high purity.
