A Facile Synthesis of Novel Dihydroindeno[1,2‐e][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐b][1,3,4]thiadiazines Using HTIB

The synthesis of a series of 21 novel 3‐alkyl/aryl‐7/9‐methyl‐10,10a‐dihydroindeno[1,2‐e][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4‐b][1,3,4]thiadiazines ( 4 ) has been achieved by the cyclocondensation between 4/6‐methyl‐2‐tosyloxy‐1‐indanones ( 2 ) and 3‐alkyl/aryl‐4‐amino‐5‐mercapto‐1,2,4‐s‐triazoles ( 3 ). 4/6‐Methyl‐2‐tosyloxy‐1‐indanones ( 2 ) were readily accessible through hypervalent iodine oxidation of 4/6‐methyl‐1‐indanones using [(hydroxy)tosyloxyiodo]benzene (HTIB, Koser's reagent) in acetonitrile.     

New Methods for the Synthesis of 3‐Amino‐6,7‐Dihydro‐5H‐Cyclopenta[c]Pyridine‐4‐Carbonitriles and Cyclopenta[d]Pyrazolo[3,4‐b]Pyridines via a Smiles‐type Rearrangement

By reaction with sodium ethoxide and as a function of their structures, 2‐[(1‐alkyl(aryl)‐4‐cyano‐6,7‐dihydro‐5H‐cyclopenta[c ]pyridin‐3‐yl)oxy]acetamides 11 gave 1‐amino‐5‐alkyl(aryl)‐7,8‐dihydro‐6H‐cyclopenta[d ]furo[2,3‐b ]pyridine‐2‐carboxamides 10 and/or 1‐alkyl(aryl)‐3‐amino‐6,7‐dihydro‐5H‐cyclopenta[c ]pyridine‐4‐carbonitriles 12 .

Syntheses of 2,3‐dicyano‐5a,8a‐dihydro‐5a‐hydroxycyclopentano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[2,3‐b]pyrazines and 2,3‐dicyanocyclohexano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo‐[2,3‐b]pyrazines

Previously synthesized 2‐(3′‐chloro‐5′,6′‐dicyanopyrazin‐2′‐yl)cyclopentan‐1‐one 1 , obtained from the reaction of 2,3‐dichloro‐5,6‐dicyanopyrazine with 1‐pyrrolidino‐1‐cyclopentene, was further reacted with primary alkylamines to give mixtures of diastereomer of 5‐alkyl‐2,3‐dicyano‐5a,8a‐dihy‐dro‐5a‐hydroxycyclopentano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[2,3‐b]pyrazines 3a‐h in high yield. The reaction of 2‐alkylamino‐3‐chloro‐5,6‐dicyanopyrazine with 1‐pyrrolidino‐1‐cyclohexene gave 5‐alkyl‐2,3‐dicyanocyclopentano[1′,2′:4,5]pyrrolo[2,3‐b]pyrazines 5a‐b together with 5‐alkylamino‐2,3‐dicyano‐6‐pyrrolidinopyrazines 6a‐b .

Reaction of 2‐acyl‐6‐methylbenzo[b]furan‐3‐acetic acids derivatives with hydrazine

Reaction of 2‐acyl‐6‐methylbenzo[b]furan‐3‐acetic acids and their derivatives such as amides and esters with hydrazine does not give expected 1‐alkyl‐5H‐benzofuro[2,3‐e]diazepin‐4‐ones ones but results in 2‐amino‐7‐methyl‐2H‐benzo[4,5]furo[2,3‐c]pyridin‐3‐ones or (3‐R‐6‐methylbenzo[b]furan‐2‐yl)alkyl ketone azines.     

Diversity in Gold‐Catalyzed Formal Cycloadditions of Ynamides with Azidoalkenes or 2H‐Azirines: [3+2] versus [4+3] Cycloadditions

Gold‐catalyzed cycloadditions of ynamides with azidoalkenes or 2H‐azirines give [3+2] or [4+3] formal cycloadducts of three classes. Cycloadditions of ynamides with 2H‐azirine species afford pyrrole products with two regioselectivities when the C_β‐substituted 2H‐azirine is replaced from an alkyl (or hydrogen) with an ester group. For ynamides substituted with an electron‐rich phenyl group, their reactions with azidoalkenes proceed through novel [4+3] cycloadditions to deliver 1H‐benzo[d]azepine products instead.     

Langmuir and Langmuir–Blodgett Films from Amphiphilic Pillar[5]arene‐Containing [2]Rotaxanes

Amphiphilic pillar[5]arene‐containing [2]rotaxanes have been prepared and fully characterized. In the particular case of the [2]rotaxane incorporating a 1,4‐diethoxypillar[5]arene subunit, the structure of the compound was confirmed by X‐ray crystal structure analysis. Owing to a good hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance, stable Langmuir films have been obtained for these rotaxanes and the size of the peripheral alkyl chains on the pillar[5]arene subunit has a dramatic influence on the reversibility during compression–decompression cycles. Indeed, when these are small enough, molecular reorganization of the rotaxane by gliding motions are capable of preventing strong π–π interactions between neighboring macrocycles in the thin film.     

Polycyclic N‐Heterocyclic Compounds. Part 75: Synthesis of 2,4‐Disubstituted 5,6‐dihydro[1]benzoxepino[5,4‐d]pyrimidines and 12‐Substituted 1,2,4,5‐Tetrahydro[1]benzoxepino[4,5‐e]imidazo[1,2‐c]pyrimidines as Potential Antiplatelet Aggregators

Libraries of tricyclic 2‐substituted 4‐alkylamino‐5,6‐dihydro[1]benzoxepino[5,4‐d]pyrimidines and tetracyclic 12‐substituted 1,2,4,5‐tetrahydro[1]benzoxepino[4,5‐e]imidazo[1,2‐c]pyrimidines were synthesized as part of our research to develop new effective antiplatelet drugs. Several alkyl and aryl groups were used as substituents at the 2‐position. Evaluation of the effects of the newly synthesized compounds on collagen‐induced platelet aggregation revealed several promising antiplatelet candidates with potencies superior to aspirin.

3-[1′(1′H)-Substituent-pyrazol-5′-yl]benzo[5,6]coumarins and 3-(1′,2′-oxazol-5′-yl)benzo[5,6]coumarin were prepared via condensation of 3-(2′-formyl-1′-chlorovinyl)benzo[5,6] coumarin with hydrazine derivatives or hydroxylamine.Reaction of 3-[1′(1′H)-pyrazol-5′-yl]benzo[5,6]coumarin with alkyl halides,olefinic compunds or acid chlorides are described.     

Synthesis and self-assembly of novel oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine amphiphiles

Heteracalixaromatics are an emerging generation of macrocyclic host molecules in supramolecular chemistry. As a typical example of heteracalixaromatics, oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine adopts a shape-persistent 1,3-alternate conformation and can be easily functionalized. Taking it as a platform, a series of oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine-based amphiphiles bearing long alkyl chains were synthesized through post-macrocyclization functionalization or 3+1 fragment coupling protocols. The self-assembly behavior of these amphiphiles in a mixture of tetrahydrofuran (THF) and water was investigated. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements revealed that the size of the self-assembled aggregates is dependent on the structure of the amphiphiles. The long alkyl chain substituents and/or intermolecular hydrogen bonds were found to promote the self-assembly.     

Facile Synthesis of New [1,2,4]Triazolo[4,3‐b]pyridazine

A number of new [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐b]pyridazines were prepared by either cyclocondesation of substituted hydrazinopyridazines with orthoesters or oxidative cyclization of their hydrazone analogs in nitrobenzene as an oxidizing agent. A host of other new [1,2,4]triazolo[4,3‐b]pyridazine derivatives were synthesized by sequential treatment of the latter compounds with carbon disulfide and alkyl halides.

Synthesis of New Pyrimido[5′,4′:5,6][1,4]thiazino[2,3‐b]quinoxaline Derivatives in One Step

As a continuation of our search for new heterocyclic compounds, the synthesis of pyrimido[5′,4′:5,6][1,4]thiazino[2,3‐b]quinoxaline ring system is described. A series of new derivatives of this heterocyclic system ( 3a–d ) have been synthesized through the one‐pot heterocyclization of the appropriate 5‐amino6‐methylpyrimidine‐4‐thiols and 2,3‐dichloroquinoxaline in the presence of K₂CO₃ in dimethylformamide under reflux. N‐alkylation of the synthesized compounds with alkyl halides in KOH/dimethylformamide also gave the desired new derivatives of N‐alkylated pyrimido[5′,4′:5,6][1,4]thiazino[2,3‐b]quinoxalines ( 4a–h ). All the synthesized products were characterized and confirmed by their spectroscopic and microanalytical data.     

Crystal engineering in ionic liquids. The crystal structures of [Mppyr]3[NdI6] and [Bmpyr]4[NdI6][Tf2N

Single crystals of [mppyr][NdI6] and [bmpyr][NdI6][Tf2N] are the first surprising examples of how the cation of an ionic liquid determines the compound formation from an ionic liquid. Depending upon the variation of the length of the alkyl chain of the quaternary pyrrolidinium cation (C3 and C4, respectively), incorporation of the anion of the ionic liquid, [Tf2N]-, can either be evoked or suppressed.     

One‐Pot,Four‐Component Synthesis of Novel Spiro[indeno[2,1‐b]quinoxaline‐11,4′‐pyran]‐2′‐amines

A one‐pot, four‐component reaction for the efficient synthesis of novel spiro[indeno[2,1‐b]quinoxaline‐11,4′‐pyran]‐2′‐amines by using InCl₃ is described. The syntheses are achieved by reacting ninhydrin with 1,2‐diaminobenzenes to give indenoquinoxalines, which are trapped in situ by alkyl malonates and various α‐methylencarbonyl compounds through cyclization, providing multifunctionalized spiro‐substituted indeno[2,1‐b]quinoxaline‐11,4′‐pyran‐2′‐amines.     

Studies on [PtCl2]‐ or [AuCl]‐Catalyzed Cyclization of 1‐(Indol‐2‐yl)‐2,3‐Allenols: The Effects of Water/Steric Hindrance and 1,2‐Migration Selectivity

The [PtCl₂]‐ or [AuCl]‐catalyzed reaction of 1‐(indol‐2‐yl)‐2,3‐allenols occurred smoothly at room temperature to afford a series of poly‐substituted carbazoles efficiently. Compared with the [PtCl₂]‐catalyzed process, the [AuCl]‐catalyzed reaction represents a significant advance in terms of the scope and the selectivity. Selective 1,2‐alkyl or aryl migration of the gold carbene intermediate was observed: compared with the methyl group, the isopropyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, and cyclohexyl groups migrate exclusively; the cyclopropyl group shifts selectively over the ethyl group; the 1,2‐migration of a non‐methyl linear alkyl is faster than methyl group; the phenyl group migrates exclusively over methyl or ethyl group. DFT calculations show that water makes the elimination of H₂O facile requiring a much lower energy and validates the migratory preferences of different alkyl or phenyl groups observed.     

Binding modes of cucurbit[6]uril and cucurbit[7]uril with a series of bis-pyridinium compounds

Binding behaviors of cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) with a series of bis-pyridinium compounds N, N’-hexamethylenebis(1-alkyl-4-carbamoyl pyridinium bromide) (HBPB-n) (alkyl chain length, n = 6, 8 and 10) guests were investigated using ¹H-NMR, ESI–MS and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The results show that CB[6] and CB[7] can form [2]pseudorotaxanes with HBPB-n easily. When increasing the length of tail alkyl chain, the binding site of CB[6] at guest molecules changed from the tail to the middle part, while CB[7] remained located over the tail chain. As CB[6] and CB[7] were added in HBPB-8 aqueous solution, a [3]pseudorotaxane was formed by the inclusion of the internal middle site in CB[6] and the tail chain in CB[7].
