A Facile Synthesis of Pyrimidone Derivatives and Single-Crystal Characterization of Pymetrozine

A facile and efficient synthetic methodology for the preparation of aza-pyrimidone and beno-pyrimidone derivatives is described, in which the triazinone ring and dihydroquinazolin-2(1H)-one was convenient constructed. The structures of all the newly synthesized compounds were characterized by mass, ¹H NMR, and infrared spectroscopy. In additional, the crystal of pymetrozine was obtained to find useful information such as configuration and molecular action mechanisms.

Quantitation of memantine hydrochloride bulk drug and its tablet formulation using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry

The use of quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry for the determination of non‐UV active memantine hydrochloride with relative simplicity and precision has been demonstrated in this study. The method was developed on a 500 MHz NMR instrument and was applied to determination of the drug in a tablet formulation. The analysis was performed by taking caffeine as an internal standard and D₂O as the NMR solvent. The signal of methyl protons of memantine hydrochloride appeared at 0.75 ppm (singlet) relative to the signal of caffeine (internal standard) at 3.13 ppm (singlet). The method was found to be linear (r² = 0.9989) in the drug concentration range of 0.025 to 0.80 mg/ml. The maximum relative standard deviation for accuracy and precision was <2. The limits of detection and quantification were 0.04 and 0.11 mg/ml, respectively. The robustness of the method was revealed by changing nine different parameters. The deviation for each parameter was also within the acceptable limits. The study highlighted possibility of direct determination of memantine hydrochloride in pure form and in its marketed tablet formulation by the use of quantitative NMR, without the need of derivatization, as is the requirement in HPLC studies.

Thermal degradation kinetics and reaction models of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene-based plastic-bonded explosives containing fluoropolymer matrices

In this article, thermal degradation behavior of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB)-based plastic-bonded explosives (PBXs) bonded with a different fluoropolymer matrices namely indigenous poly(vinylidene fluoride-chlorotrifluoroethylene) (FKM), FK 800, fluoroplastic F-32L and fluororubber SKF 32 was investigated through non-isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TG) technique under nitrogen atmosphere. It was observed that the mass loss of PBXs containing FKM and FK 800 matrices occurred in three steps. The mass loss of PBXs containing fluoroplastic F-32L and fluororubber SKF 32 occurred in two steps. Kinetics were investigated through non-isothermal TG at different heating rates for the first step of degradation by means of model-free Flynn–Wall–Ozawa (FWO) and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) methods. The activation energies calculated by applying FWO method are in good agreement and very close to those obtained by KAS method. The results revealed that the effect of the polymer matrices on the thermal degradation reaction of TATB was significantly observed especially different outcomes of kinetic parameters. The reaction models for degradation were also studied by Criado method. The reaction models are probably best described by the power law and diffusion models.     

Synthesis of 2-(Triazolyl,Oxadiazolyl, and Pyrazolyl) Substituted 1,5-Benzothiazepin-S,S-Dioxide Derivatives of Potential Medicinal Interest

Abstract

The synthetic potential of 2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b] [1,5]thiazepine-1,1,4-trione-2-carbohydrazide (5) which resulted from ethyl-4-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b] [1,5]thiazepine-2-carboxylate (3), on its oxidation with H₂O₂/AcOH followed by treatment with NH₂NH₂.H₂O, was exploited to provide an access to 2-triazolo, 2-oxadiazolo, and 2-pyrazolo substituted derivatives of 1,5-benzothiazepin-4-oxo-1,1-dioxides (6–10), respectively.
