5-Diazo-6,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles in [3+2] cycloaddition reactions

The [3+2] cycloaddition reactions of a series of 1,3-substituted 5-diazo-6,6-dimethyl-4-oxo-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazoles with maleic anhydride and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate gave 1′,3′-substituted 3-spiro[4,6-dioxo-4,6,3a,6a-tetrahydro-3H-furo[3,4-c]pyrazole]-5′-[6′,6′-dimethyl-4′-oxo-4′,5′,6′,7′-tetrahydroindazoles] and 1′,3′-substituted 3-spiro[4,5-di(methoxycarbonyl)-3H-pyrazole]-5′-[6′,6′-dimethyl-4′-oxo-4′,5′,6′,7′-tetrahydroindazoles] respectively. When heated the former eliminate nitrogen and are transformed into 1′,3′-substituted 6-spiro[2,4-dioxo-3-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane]-5′-[6′,6′-dimethyl-4′-oxo-4′,5′,6′,7′-tetrahydroindazoles]. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1784–1791, December, 2007.     

Synthesis of a new polyfluorinated vinylogue of tetrathiafulvalene through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of ethyl beta-bromoperfluorodithiocrotonate with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate

The ethyl ester of beta-bromoperfluorodithiocrotonic acid reacts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to give 1,4-difluoro-2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-but-2-ene-1,4-diylidene-2,2'-bis(4',5'-dicarbomethoxy-1',3'-dithiole) (4), a new type of vinylogue of tetrathiafulvalene. The thermal transformations of this compound lead, depending on the temperature, to the formation of the cyclization products: 11,14-difluoro-2,3,8,9-tetra(carbomethoxy)-12,13-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetrathiadispiro[4.0.4.4]tetradeca-2,8,11,13-tetraene (8) or 5,8-difluoro-6,7-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2,3-bis(carboxymethyl)-1,4-benzodithiine (11).     

Cascade cycloaddition reactions involving dimethylhydrazones of α-substituted acroleins

Unusual cascade cycloaddition reactions with dimethylhydrazones of -trimethylsilyloxyalkylacroleins acting as azadienes were found. Depending on the nature of the dienophile, the reactions give either fused heterocyclic compounds (when two consecutive Diels—Alder reactions take place) or azabicyclic compounds, resulting from the [2+4]- and [2+3]-cycloaddition cascade.     

Stereocontrolled intramolecular nitrile oxide cycloaddition reaction using a gauche-gauche interaction

A gauche-gauche interaction is proposed as a powerful controlling factor for the stereochemistry in the intramolecular nitrile oxide cycloaddition reaction derived from N-protected 3-(N-allylamino)propionaldehyde and 2-(N-homoallylamino)acetaldehyde oximes. High levels of stereoselectivity (76% de to perfect) were obtained from the reaction involving nitrile oxides with substituents at the adjacent carbon atom to the tether nitrogen.

Engineering a Cu‐MOF Nano‐Catalyst by using Post‐Synthetic Modification for the Preparation of 5‐Substituted 1H‐Tetrazoles

A new nano scale Cu‐MOF has been obtained via post‐synthetic metalation by immersing a Zn‐MOF as a template in DMF solutions of copper(II) salts. The Cu‐MOF serves as recyclable nano‐catalyst for the preparation of 5‐substituted 1H‐tetrazoles via [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of various nitriles and sodium azide in a green medium (PEG). The post‐synthetic metalated MOF were characterized by FT‐IR spectroscopy, powder X‐ray diffraction (PXRD), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX) techniques. The morphology and size of the nano‐catalyst were determined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM).     

Ligand effect in the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers via copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition polymerization (CuAACP)

Copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition polymerization (CuAACP) of AB₂ monomers demonstrated a chain-growth mechanism without any external ligand because of the complexation of in situ formed triazole groups with Cu catalysts. In this study, we explored the use of various ligands that affected the polymerization kinetics to tune the polymers’ molecular weights and the degree of branching (DB). Eight ligands were studied, including polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether (PEG₃₅₀, M_n = 350), tris(benzyltriazolylmethyl)amine (TBTA), 2,6-bis(1-undecyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)pyridine (Py(DBim)₂), 2,2′-bipyridyl (bpy), 4,4′-di-n-nonyl-2,2′-bipyridine (dNbpy), N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA), N,N,N′,N″,N″-penta(n-butyl)diethylenetriamine (PBuDETA), and N,N,N′,N″,N″-pentabenzyldiethylenetriamine (PBnDETA). All ligands except PEG₃₅₀ exhibited stronger coordination with Cu(I) than the polytriazole polymer, which freed the Cu catalyst from polymers and resulted in dominant step-growth polymerization with simultaneous chain-growth feature. Meanwhile, the use of PEG₃₅₀ ligand retained the confined Cu in the polymer, demonstrating a chain-growth mechanism, but lower polymer molecular weights as compared with the no-external-ligand polymerization. Results indicated that aliphatic substituent groups on ligands had little effect on the molecular weights and DB of the polymers, but rigid aromatic substituent groups decreased both values. By varying the ligand species and amounts, hyperbranched polymers with DB value ranging from 0.53 ([TBTA]₀/[Cu]₀ = 5) to 0.98 ([PMDETA]₀/[Cu]₀ = 2) have been achieved. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Formal (4+1) Cycloaddition of Methylenecyclopropanes with 7‐Aryl‐1,3,5‐cycloheptatrienes by Triple Gold(I) Catalysis

7‐Aryl‐1,3,5‐cycloheptatrienes react intermolecularly with methylenecyclopropanes in a triple gold(I)‐catalyzed reaction to form cyclopentenes. The same formal (4+1) cycloaddition occurs with cyclobutenes. Other precursors of gold(I) carbenes can also be used as the C₁ component of the cycloaddition.
