Photochromism of fulgides and stereoelectronic factors: Synthesis of (E)-4(3)-adamantyhdene-(5)-dicyanomethylene-3(4)-[1-(2,5-dimethylfuryl)ethylidene]tetrahydrofuran-2-one 4 and 4a and (E)-4-adamantylidene-3-[2,6-dimethyl-3,5-bis(p-diethyl-aminostyryl)benzylidene]tetrahydrofuran-2,5-dione 10

In the search for fulgides with potential semiconductor laser compatibility, 4-adamantylidene-5-dicyanomemylene-3-[1-(2,5-dimethyl-3-furyl)ethylidene]tetrahydrofuran-2-one ( 4 ), along with its regioisomer 4a , have been synthesized from the corresponding fulgide 6 containing a succinic anhydride ring by reaction with malononitrile in the presence of diethylamine. Upon irradiation with a uv light at λ_max 350 run, a mixture of 4 and 4a revealed a considerably enhanced bathochromic shift to the visible region, λ_max 605 nm as compared with the starting fulgide 6 which, upon analogous uv irradiation, absorbed at λ_max 515 nm. In the search for semiconductor-laser-compatible fulgides with increased efficiency for the reverse bleaching reaction, another fulgide (E)–adamantylidene-3-[2,6-dimethyl-3,5-bis(p-diethylaminostyryl)-benzylidene]tetrahydrofuran-2,5-dione ( 10 ) was synthesized in seven steps starting from 2-bromo-m-xylene. However, 10 failed to undergo electrocyclic ring-closure upon irradiation with a uv light at λ_max 350 nm. The analogous fulgide 8 , which contains an isopropylidene functionality in place of the adamantyl group of 10 , was resynthesized for comparison, and showed two absorption maxima, one at 545 nm and the other at 620 nm. The missing physico-chemical data for 8 have also been provided.

Synthesis of (1R,4E,5S)-4-{[(E)-(azinyl)diazenyl]methylidene}-1,8,8-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ones and (1R,4R,5R)-4-([1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-x]azin-3-yl)-1,8,8-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ones

4-[(Heteroaryldiazenyl)methylidene] and 4-([1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-x]azin-3-yl) substituted (1R,5R)-4-1,8,8-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ones 6/6′ and 7/7′ were obtained in a one-pot transformation of the enamino lactone 2 with hydrazinoazines 3a–g followed by oxidation of the intermediate mixture of isomeric enehydrazines 4/4′ and hydrazones 5/5′ with lead tetraacetate. The oxidation selectivity was dependent on the ratio of isomeric intermediates 4/4′ and 5/5′. Treatment of 7b with lead tetraacetate led to α-acetoxylated compound 11, while bromination of 9b afforded a 1:1 mixture of α-bromination products 12 and 12′, which were separated by medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC). The structures of intermediates and products were confirmed by NMR and X-ray diffraction.     

Psilocin analogs II. Synthesis of 3-[2-(dialkylamino)ethyl]-, 3-[2-(N-methyl-N-alkylamino)ethyl]-, and 3-[2-(cycloalkylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ols

Structural alteration of the N^b-substituents of psilocin (3-[2-dimethylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ol) ( 12a ) has led to a number of compounds containing known pharmacophoric groups. Further, it is hoped that the subtle changes in the nature of these substituents may lead to a clearer understanding of the structure-activity relationships of the 4-hydroxytryptamine hallucinogens.     

Ultraviolet absorption spectra of 2-alkylamino-, 2-phenylamino-,2-morpholino-3-(or 5)-nitro-4-methylpyridines and some 2-alkylamino-3,5-dinitro-4-methylpyridines

Electronic spectra of thirteen title compounds were measured and the substituent effect on _max and _max were discussed. It was found that there is a disturbance of mutual electronic interaction of substituent by a steric ortho-effect. The obtained results provide evidence that the investigated 2-akylamino compounds exist in amino form.Department of Organic Chemistry, Academy of Economics, Wroclaw PL-53-432.

Synthesis and Anti-HIV-1 Activity of 2-[2-(3,5-Dimethylphenoxy)ethylthio]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones

New 2-[2-(3,5-dimethylphenoxy)ethyl]thio derivatives of pyrimidin-4(3H)-one containing various substituents at positions 5 and 6 of the pyrimidine ring were synthesized. It was shown that alkylation of 2-thiouracils with 1-bromo-2-(3,5-dimethylphenoxy)ethane in DMF takes place exclusively at the sulfur atom. The obtained 6-benzyl and 6-(2,6-difluorobenzyl) derivatives have clearly defined virus-inhibiting properties with respect to type 1 human immunodeficiency virus in vitro and suppress its reproduction by 50% at concentrations of 1.3 and 11.2 mM respectively.
