Properties of a Ring Critical Pointas Measures of Intramolecular H-Bond Strength

Summary.  The topological parameters derived from the Bader theory such as the electron density and its Laplacian at the ring critical point (RCP) are analysed here as possible measures of the H-bond stength for intramolecular H-bonds. The parameters of RCP correlate well with the other properties of intramolecular H-bonds which are known as good measures of the H-bond strength. The calculations were performed on two samples of compounds with intramolecular H-bonds: the derivatives of malonaldehyde and the derivatives of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde. MP2 and HF calculations were carried out using a 6-311++G^** basis set. E-mail: slagra@krysia.uni.lodz.pl Received February 18, 2002; accepted (revised) May 27, 2002     

Transformations of 3,4-bisindolylmaleimides with differently bonded indole and maleimide moieties under the action of protic acids: A quantum chemical study

Intramolecular cyclization reactions of 3,4-bis(indol-3-yl)maleimides 1, 3-(indol-1-yl)-4-(indol-3-yl)maleimides 2, and 3,4-bis(indol-1-yl)maleimides 3 under the action of protic acids were studied in order to estimate the parameters of the interaction between protonated and unprotonated indole moieties. Geometric parameters, charge distributions, energy characteristics, and information concerning the frontier orbitals of bisindolylmaleimides 1–3 were obtained from density functional B3LYP/6-31G(d) quantum chemical calculations. Alternative pathways of protonation of bisindolylmaleimides with differently bonded indole and maleimide moieties were studied and pathways of cyclization of corresponding conjugated acids leading to polyannelated compounds were analyzed. All the key intermediates of the cyclization reactions correspond to stationary points on the potential energy surfaces (minima and transition states). Analysis of the potential energy surfaces revealed almost linear dependences of the activation energies of the cyclization reactions under study on the distances between the reaction centers, on the angle of approach of intramolecular electrophile, and on the energy gap (energy difference between frontier orbitals). The key role in the cyclization reactions is played by structural similarity between the starting indoleninium cations and the activated complexes of the reactions under study.

Synthesis of New Difurocoumarins

5,7-Dihydroxy-4-methyl- and 5,7-dihydroxy-4-trifluoromethylcoumarins are starting compounds in the synthesis of new 10-methyl-8H-difuro[2,3-f;2,3-h]-8-ones and 10-trifluoromethyl-8H-difuro-[2,3-f;2,3-h]chromen-8-ones with high yields.     

Palladium complexes of phosphinamine ligands in the intramolecular asymmetric Heck reaction

The synthesis of two novel cyclisation substrates for the asymmetric intramolecular Heck reaction is reported. Their cyclisation, in addition to a known substrate for cis-decalin formation, were tested with palladium complexes of BINAP and heterobidentate oxazoline-containing ligands. In general BINAP provides a more active catalyst system for the range of substrates tested although excellent enantioselectivities of up to 85% were obtained with the P,N ligands studied. A trend was noted whereby the t-leucine-derived oxazoline ligands were more reactive and enantioselective than the valine-derived analogues. Similarly, the diphenylphosphinoferrocenyloxazoline ligands were more reactive and selective than the corresponding diphenylphosphinophenyloxazoline ligands.     

Synthesis of novel 5,6-substituted furo[2,3-d]pyrimidines via Pd-catalyzed cyclization of alkynylpyrimidinols with aryl iodides

A flexible method for the synthesis of 5,6-disubstituted furo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives is described. The key step is a palladium-catalyzed arylative cyclization of alkynylpyrimidinols with various aryl iodides, which gave the title compounds in 36-75% yield.     

Stereoselective synthesis of 4-hydroxy-2-phenylproline framework

Highly diastereoselective (>20:1) bromo-lactonization of N-sulfonyl-2-allyl-2-phenylglycine methyl ester (11) was observed. Successive treatment of the chiral lactone with MeONa gave the desired (2S,4R)-4-hydroxy-2-phenylproline derivative in high yield without erosion of the diastereoselectivity. The starting chiral non-racemic compound (5) was prepared from the racemic 2-phenylglycine using a classical kinetic resolution (crystallization), an asymmetric phase transfer alkylation, and an enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution.
