Dithia[3.3 ]phanes. 4—mass spectrometry of some dithia[3.3]-naphthalenophanes1

The mass spectral fragmentation of 23 dithia [3.3]naphthalenophanes is discussed. The most characteristic species for these compounds are the M⁺ ion and ions at m/z 115, 135 (or 136), 141, 155 (or 154) and 185.     

1‐Substituted 2‐Azaspiro[3.3]heptanes: Overlooked Motifs for Drug Discovery

The 2‐substituted piperidine core is found in drugs (18 FDA‐approved drugs), however, their spirocyclic analogues remain unknown. Described here is the synthesis of spirocyclic analogues for 2‐substituted piperidines and a demonstration of their validation in drug discovery.     

1‐Phosphabicyclo[3.2.1]octane

1‐Phosphabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes 1‐Phosphabicyclo[3.2.1]octane has been obtained by free‐radical cyclization of (2‐vinyl‐4‐pentenyl)‐phosphane in the presence of AIBN. Another approach to 1‐phosphabicyclo[3.2.1]octanes involves free‐radical cyclization of 2‐methyl‐4‐(2‐propenyl)‐phospholane synthesized by the reaction of [2‐(2‐propenyl)‐4‐pentenyl]‐phosphane with KPH₂/[18]crown‐6 in THF. The bicyclic phosphanes are characterized by reactions with CS₂, selenium, sulfur, NO, CH₃I, and HSO₃F, respectively, structural and analytical data as well as ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, ⁷⁷Se NMR spectral measurements. The steric crowding of the phosphanes as complex ligands has been estimated from ³¹P–¹H coupling constants according to the Tolman model. The configuration of the methyl substituents as well as the conformation of the six‐membered ring were determined by NMR parameters (coupling constants, noe's) and proved by X‐ray crystal structure analysis.     

Spiro[pyrido[3,2,1‐ij]pyrimido[4,5‐b]quinoline‐7,5′‐pyrrolo[2,3‐d]pyrimidines] and Spiro[pyrimido[4,5‐b]quinoline‐5,1′‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinolines] Derived from 5,6‐Dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐1,2‐dione

Reaction of 5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐pyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinoline‐1,2‐dione ( 1 ) with two equivalents of some 6‐aminouracils (or 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil) generates spirocyclic tetrahydrobenzo[if]quinolizines ( 7 ). The one‐pot, three‐component reaction of amido ketone ( 1 ) with 6‐aminouracil (or 6‐amino‐2‐thiouracil) and a cyclic six‐membered 1,3‐diketone produces spirocyclic tetrahydropyrrolo[3,2,1‐ij]quinolinones ( 15 ).

1‐Phosphabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane

1‐Phosphabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes Exo‐endo‐ and exo‐exo‐2.6‐dimethyl‐1‐phosphabicyclo [2.2.1]heptane have been obtained by cyclization of 2‐methyl‐4‐(2‐propenyl)phospholane in the presence of the complex base, sodium salt of diethylenglycolmonoethylether ‐ sodium amide in THF (NAMEDEG). The bicyclic phosphanes are characterized by reac‐tions with selenium, sulfur, (CH₃)₂SeO, CH₃I and HSO₃F, respectively, elemental analysis, X‐ray crystal structure analysis as well as ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR spectral measurements. The steric demand of these phosphanes as complex ligands has been estimated from the P, H coupling constants of the phosphonium fluorosulphates according to the Tolman model. The phosphane selenides were found to display the lowest values for the ¹J(Se, P) coupling constant, found up to now for alicyclic and cyclic aliphatic tertiary phosphane selenides. The ⁿJ(P, H)‐ and ⁿJ(H, H)_{n=2, 3} coupling constants have been extracted from the proton spectra at 600 MHz by computerized analysis.
