Studies on cardiotonic agents. V. Synthesis of 1-(6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinyl)piperidine derivatives carrying various 5-membered heterocyclic rings at the 4-position

A series of 1-(6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinyl)piperidines carrying various 5-membered heterocycles at the 4-position was synthesized and examined for cardiotonic activity in anesthesized dogs. The (4-oxo-2-thioxo-3-imidazolindinyl)amino derivatives showed the most potent inotropic activity. Marked loss of activity was observed in the 2,4-dihydro-3-thioxo-3H-1,2,4-triazolyl, the 2,4-dihydro-3-oxo-3H-pyrazolyl and the (2,3-dihydro-2-thioxo-3H-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5-yl)amino derivatives. The synthesis and structure-activity relationships are discussed.     

Synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives using N-bis(methylthio)methylenecyanamide

N-Bis(methylthio)methylenecyanamide ( 1 ) was allowed to react with active methylene compounds (methyl cyanoacetate, dimethyl malonate, ethyl acetoacetate, ethyl phenylacetate) in the presence of potassium carbonate or potassium hydroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide followed by the treatment using appropriate a base or an acid to give the corresponding 6-methylthiouracil derivatives in 15–80% yields. These uracil derivatives are found to be useful intermediates for the synthesis of 6-aminouracils and fused pyrimidine derivatives.     

On the underestimated influence of synthetic conditions in solid ionic conductors

The development of high-performance inorganic solid electrolytes is central to achieving high-energy- density solid-state batteries. Whereas these solid-state materials are often prepared via classic solid-state syntheses, recent efforts in the community have shown that mechanochemical reactions, solution syntheses, microwave syntheses, and various post-synthetic heat treatment routines can drastically affect the structure and microstructure, and with it, the transport properties of the materials. On the one hand, these are important considerations for the upscaling of a materials processing route for industrial applications and industrial production. On the other hand, it shows that the influence of the different syntheses on the materials'' properties is neither well understood fundamentally nor broadly internalized well. Here we aim to review the recent efforts on understanding the influence of the synthetic procedure on the synthesis – (micro)structure – transport correlations in superionic conductors. Our aim is to provide the field of solid-state research a direction for future efforts to better understand current materials properties based on synthetic routes, rather than having an overly simplistic idea of any given composition having an intrinsic conductivity. We hope this review will shed light on the underestimated influence of synthesis on the transport properties of solid electrolytes toward the design of syntheses of future solid electrolytes and help guide industrial efforts of known materials.

An efficient synthesis of 5-diethoxymethylimidazole-4-carboxylate,a potential precursor for various imidazole derivatives

Anionic cycloaddition of methyl isocyanoacetate to diethoxyacetonitrile afforded methyl 5-diethoxymethylimidazole-4-carboxylate, a useful imidazole nucleus with two different functional groups.     

Catalyzed cycloaddition reactions of α-silyloxy-α,β-unsaturated ketone and aldehyde

The reactions of α-silyloxy-ga,β-unsaturated ketone and aldehyde with diene afforded [4+2] and [4+3] cycloadducts respectively in the presence of a catalyst.     

NAD(P)+-NAD(P)H model. 38. Reduction of aldehyde by 1,4-dihydroquinolin derivative

Benzaldehyde are reduced to benzyl alcohol by a model compound of NAD(P)H almost quantitatively. Reductions of some other aldehydes are also mentioned.     

Hankel-type operators on the space of bounded harmonic functions

We study Hankel-type operators on the space of bounded harmonic functions on the open unit disk. These operators are related to tight uniform algebras, the Dunford-Pettis property, and Bourgain algebras.

     

Topological Structure of the Space of Weighted Composition Operators Between Different Hardy Spaces

We consider properties related to weighted composition operators boundedly acting from the classical Hardy space H ^p to H ^q for \({1 \leq q < p < \infty}\) . Especially, we shall completely determine path connected components in the set of weighted composition operators and explicitly characterize by function-theoretic properties of analytic self-maps.
