Thiourea to bicyclic scaffolds: highly regio- and stereoselective routes to dithiazolopyrimidines

Microwave-activated solvent-free Michael addition of 3-imino-1,4,2-dithiazoles to 4-arylidene-5(4H)-oxazolones furnished isolable adducts regio- and diastereoselectively, which underwent ring transformation to yield the target dithiazolopyrimidines. Alternatively, the similar conjugate addition of methanesulfinylmethylisothioureas to 4-arylidene-5(4H)-oxazolones diastereoselectively afforded Michael adducts, which underwent ring transformation followed by heterocyclization via deoxygenative demethylation with thionyl chloride to yield the same products dithiazolopyrimidines regio- and diastereoselectively.     

Asymmetric synthesis of 1-substituted-1-(pyridin-2-yl)methylamines by diastereoselective reduction of enantiopure N-p-toluenesulfinyl ketimines

Reduction of enantiopure N-p-toluenesulfinyl ketimines derived from 2-pyridyl ketones affords N-p-toluenesulfinyl amines with good yields and diastereoselectivities.     

Catalytic activity of tetracoordinated stereochemically flexible Ni(II) bis(5-thiopyrazol-4-aldiminates) in the dimerization of propylene

The catalytic activity of Ni(II) bis-(5-thiopyrazol-4-aldiminates) was found to be related to the stereochemical flexibility of these compounds in the dimerization of propylene. The propylene conversion decreases with decreasing stereochemical flexibility of the complexes resulting from an increase in the bulk of the substituent at the coordinated nitrogen atom of the NiN₂S₂ chelate ring.Institute of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of Azerbaidjan, 370143 Baku.

Stereoselective synthesis of 3a,7a-dihydro-3H,4H-furo[3,4-c]pyran-1-ones via intramolecular hetero-Diels-Alder reaction

The synthesis of 3a,7a-dihydro-3H,4H-furo[3,4-c]pyran-1-ones via an intramolecular hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of easily accessible α,β-unsaturated γ-ketoesters was investigated. The reaction was found to proceed in a highly stereoselective way leading to single, cis-configured product isomers. The same diastereomer is formed, independently of the configuration of the enone double bond of the precursor. The respective E- and Z-isomers react either through an endo-E-syn or an exo-Z-syn transition state.     

Diastereoselective addition of dimethyl phosphite to 3,3′,4,4′-tetramethyl-1,1′-diphosphaferrocene-2-carboxaldehyde

Addition of dimethyl phosphite to racemic 3,3′,4,4′-tetramethyl-1,1′-diphosphaferrocene-2-carboxaldehyde gives almost exclusively one diastereomer of the corresponding α-hydroxyphosphonate (d.r. ?96:4). Its absolute configuration (S, R_p)-(R, S_p) was established by X-ray diffraction.     

Dimerization and Coordination Properties of Zinc(II)tetra-4-alkoxybenzoyloxiphthalocyanine in Relation to DABCO in <Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>-Xylene and Chloroform

For the first time the interactions between zinc(II)tetra-4-alkoxybenzoyloxiphthalocyanine (Zn(4—O—CO—C₆H₄—OC₁₁H₂₃)Pc) and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) in o-xylene and chloroform have been studied by calorimetric titration and NMR and electron absorption spectroscopic methods. It has been found that in o-xylene at concentrations of Zn(4—O—CO—C₆H₄—OC₁₁H₂₃)Pc higher than 6×10⁻⁴ mol⋅L⁻¹ π–π dimers species are formed (λ _max= 685 nm). Additions of DABCO to the solution up to mole ratio 1 : 8 (Zn(4—O—CO—C₆H₄—OC₁₁H₂₃)Pc : DABCO) lead to a shift of the aggregation equilibrium towards monomer species due to formation of monoligand axial complexes. Further increasing the DABCO concentration results in formation of Zn(4—O—CO—C₆H₄—OC₁₁H₂₃)Pc—DABCO—Zn(4—O—CO—C₆H₄—OC₁₁H₂₃)Pc sandwich dimers (λ _max= 675 nm).     

Diastereoselective synthesis of unsaturated 1,2-amino alcohols from α-hydroxy allyl ethers using chlorosulfonyl isocyanate

Diastereoselective synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols was achieved from a highly diastereoselective allylic amination reaction of α-hydroxy allyl ethers using chlorosulfonyl isocyanate. Diastereoselectivities varied depending on the stereochemistry of the ethers used and the stability of the carbocation intermediate obtained during the reaction. We propose that this CSI reaction is the results of either a S_Ni or S_N1 mechanism, according to the stability of the carbocation intermediate.

New S,O-acetals from (1R)-(−)-myrtenal as chiral auxiliaries in nucleophilic additions

Treatment of hydroxythiol 4 with α,α-diethoxyacetophenone at room temperature yielded a mixture of epimeric S,O-acetals 6 and 7 (1:4, 92% yield), which were efficiently separated by flash chromatography. The OTBS derivatives 8 and 9 were treated with several Grignard reagents to afford carbinols 10 and 13 respectively (85-99% yield, >95% dr). After successive hydrolysis and reduction of 10 and 13 it is possible to obtain either enantiomer of diols 16 in high optical purity (>95% er).
