One-Pot Synthesis and Fungicidal Activities of Derivatives of Imidazo [2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5(6H)-one

The isothiocyanates 2, obtained from aza-Wittig reactions of vinyliminophosphoranes 1 with CS ₂ , reacted with hydrazine to give 3-amino-2-thioxo-4-imidazolidinones 4. One-pot reactions of 4, aromatic isocyanates, Ph ₃ P, C ₂ Cl ₆ , and Et ₃ N generated imidazo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-5(6H)-ones 7. Compound 7 exhibited good fungicidal activities, especially against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum de Bary and Botrytis Cinerea Pers.     

A FACILE SYNTHESIS OF DIETHYL 1- ISOTHIOCYANO)ALKYLPHOSPHONATES[1]

Abstract

Novel, diethyl 1-(isothiocyano)alkylphosphonates 3 have been efficiently synthesized via a one-pot reaction of diethyl 1-azidoalkylphosphonates 1 with triphenylphosphine, followed by in situ transformation of thus formed phosphazenes 2 with carbon disulfide. Application of the title compounds in the synthesis of diethyl (N-phenylthioureido)- and (benzothiazol-2-ylamino)methylphosphonates was also described.     

CONDENSATION REACTION OF 1-OXO-4-CHLOROCARBONYL-1-PHOSPHA-2,6,7-TRIOXABICYCLO[2.2.2]OCTANE WITH N-t-BUTYL-N-BENZOYLHYDRAZINE

Abstract

1-Oxo-4-chlorocarbony1-1-phospha-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (5) was obtained from phosphorus oxychloride. Benzyl chloroformate was synthesized by the reaction of benzyl alcohol and triphosgene in good yield for the first time. N-r-Butyl-N-benzoylhydrazine(II) was prepared in a new and convenivent procedure with good yield. The reaction of 5 and II proceeded smoothly in the presence of sodium carbonate and afforded the desired compound 13 in good yield, while in the presence of triethylamine, the elimination of butyl was observed and afforded the compound 12.     

DIHALOCARBENE ADDITION TO ARYLSUBSTTTUTED VINYL PHOSPHATES UNDER PHASE TRANSFER CATALYTIC CONDITIONS

Abstract

Dihalocarbene addition to aryl-substituted vinyl phosphates was carried out both in solid-liquid and in liquid-liquid two phase systems. The dihalocyclopropane adducts of vinyl phosphates could be obtained in better yield using dihalocarbenes generated by the latter method and no hydrolysis of the vinyl phosphate and of the adduct occurred under these circumstances. Eighteen new vinyl phosphate-dihalocarbene adducts were synthetized and characterized.     

Preparation of partially functionalised resorcinarene derivatives

The conditions for synthesis of mono-, di- and trifunctionalised resorcinarenes by catalysed Mannich reaction are described. A series of these compounds are functionalised with different functional groups.     

First Synthesis of 1,3-Alternate 25,27-Dialkyloxy-5,17-diarylcalix[4]arenes-crown-6 as New Cesium Selective Extractants by Suzuki Cross-coupling Reaction

The synthesis of new 25,27-dialkyloxy-5,17-diarylcalix[4]arenes-crown-6 1a–f in 1,3-alternate conformation by Suzuki cross-coupling reaction is reported. Their conformation was determined using ¹H, ¹³C, 2D NMR and ROESY analysis, and X-ray crystallography. Extraction experiments using a two-phase solvent method involving sodium, potassium or cesium picrate showed good extraction of the cesium cation. The X-ray crystal structures of 1,3-alternate 25,27-dipropoxy-5,17-diphenylcalix[4]arene-crown-6 ether 1a and its cesium picrate complex were established. Solid-state data were used to determine the complexation behavior of these new ligands. The efficiency of calixarenes 1a–f for cesium ion extraction could be ascribed to the rigidity and flatness linkages caused by the aryl groups at the lower rim of the aromatic moieties in the calixarene skeleton. In addition, the introduction of these aromatic moieties in positions 5 and 17 enhanced the solubility of the metal complexes in organic media.     

Preparation of Mg–Al hydrotalcite from the effluent of Friedel–Crafts reaction and its application as a catalyst in Knoevenagel reaction

Abstract

Hydrotalcite containing magnesium and aluminium (Mg–Al HT) with a molar ratio of Mg(II)/Al(III) = 2.5 has been prepared by a co-precipitation method using the effluent of a Friedel–Crafts acylation reaction. The HT was calcined at 500°C and reconstructed with deionized water. The synthesized HT was characterized by XRD and FT-IR spectroscopy and was successfully used as a catalyst in the Knoevenagel reaction of aldehydes and active methylene compounds. The catalyst was found to be reusable.     

Adsorption of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons on Graphene Oxides and Reduced Graphene Oxides

Graphene has attracted increasing attention in multidisciplinary studies because of its unique physical and chemical properties. Herein, the adsorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), such as naphthalene (NAP), anthracene (ANT), and pyrene (PYR), on reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) and graphene oxides (GOs) as a function of pH, humic acid (HA), and temperature were elucidated by means of a batch technique. For comparison, nonpolar and nonporous graphite were also employed in this study. The increasing of pH from 2 to 11 did not influence the adsorption of PAHs on rGOs, whereas the suppressed adsorption of NAP on rGOs was observed both in the presence of HA and under high‐temperature conditions. Adsorption isotherms of PAHs on rGOs were in accordance with the Polanyi–Dubinin–Ashtahhov (PDA) model, providing evidence that pore filling and flat surface adsorption were involved. The saturated adsorbed capacities (in mmol g^?1) of rGOs for PAHs calculated from the PDA model significantly decreased in the order of NAP>PYR>ANT, which was comparable to the results of theoretical calculations. The pore‐filling mechanism dominates the adsorption of NAP on rGOs, but the adsorption mechanisms of ANT and PYR on rGOs are flat surface adsorption.
