Action of nucleophilic agents on the pyrimidine ring

It is shown that 2-alkylpyrimidine methiodides in which the alkyl group is activated by electron-acceptor substituents undergo recyclization to the corresponding 2-methylaminopyridines in an alcohol solution of methylamine. Similar recyclization also takes place without quaternization of the pyrimidine ring when there is a strong electron-acceptor substituent (a nitro group) in the ring.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1400–1405, October, 1978.     

Synthesis of N-heteroaromatic onium betaines of indane-1,3-dione

Betaines are formed in good yields in the reaction of N-heteroaromatic compounds with 2-dicyanomethyleneindane-1,3-dione oxide and its 4- and 5-halo derivatives in dioxane. The corresponding oxides were obtained by oxidation of 2-dicyanomethyleneindane-1,3-dione and its 4- and 5-substituted derivatives with hydrogen peroxide in dioxane. Data from the IR spectra of the compounds are presented.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 889–892, July, 1978.     

Mixed-metal ethylenediaminetetraacetates of neodymium and alkaline earths

Conclusions In solution, the complexes M^II(NdA)₂ do not have a polynuclear structure. In the conditions studied, hydroxo polynuclear complexes including EDTA and M^II and Nd³⁺ ions are also not formed. Our results are not inconsistent with the hypothesis that the solid complex Ca(NdA)₂·17H₂O has a polynuclear structure and that the polynuclear character is successively weakened as Ca²⁺ is replaced by Sr²⁺ and Ba²⁺.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1235–1239, June, 1977.     

Stereochemistry of the synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocinnolines from aryldiazenium salts and olefins

It follows from the PMR spectra that the reaction of 1-methyl-, 1-phenyl-, 1-ethyl-,1-phenyl-, and 1,1-diphenyldiazenium salts with cis- and trans-d-styrenes, which leads to the corresponding 3-d-4-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocinnolines, takes place with retention of the configuration in the starting styrenes. It is therefore proposed that this reaction be regarded as a special case of [4⁺_s + 2_s]-cycloaddition.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1658–1661, December, 1977.
