ZrCl4-promoted halogen migration during an electrophilic amination of halogenated phenols

An electrophilic amination of halogenated phenols with diisopropyl diazenedicarboxylate in the presence of ZrCl4 as a Lewis acid, accompanied by a halogen migration, was demonstrated for the first time; the fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine atom migrated during the amination process under mild reaction conditions.     

Potential ambifunctionality of 2-azidopyrido[1,2-a] pyrimidin-4-one

2-Azidopyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one can exit only in the azido form and undergoes cyclo-addition reaction with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds to form 1,2,3-triazole derivatives. Under the influence of bases or hydrochloric acid the carbonyl group is attacked with subsequent opening of the pyrimidine ring. This causes an immediate cyclization of the azide group to give a tetrazolo derivative. In a similar way a triazole ring can be formed from the appropriate hydrazino derivatives of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-one.     

TRANSFORMATIONS OF 1,2,3-BENZOTHIADIAZOLE

Abstract

The experimental evidence concerning the nitration of 1,2,3-benzothiadiazole is conflicting. We have found that 4-nitro- and 7-nitro-1,2,3-benzothiadiazole are the major products, while from 6-chloro-1,2,3-benzothiazole 6-chloro-7-nitro-benzothiadiazole (I) was formed as the only product.     

Catalyst-free reactions under solvent-free conditions: microwave-assisted synthesis of heterocyclic hydrazones below the melting points of neat reactants

The reaction of neat 5- or 8-oxobenzopyran-2(1H)-ones, 1-3, with a variety of aromatic and heteroaromatic hydrazines, 4, is remarkably accelerated upon irradiation in a household microwave oven in the absence of any catalyst, solid support or solvent thus providing an environmentally friendly route to several heterocyclic hydrazones.     

Comparison of the reaction pathways and intermediate products of a microwave-assisted and high-pressure-promoted cycloaddition of vinyl-moiety-containing dienophiles on 2H-pyran-2-ones

A comparative study of the reaction pathway of the cycloaddition of various vinyl-containing dienophiles on a set of substituted 3-acylamino-2H-pyran-2-ones under microwave-assisted and high-pressure conditions is presented. In the course of the reaction both the intermediate products, i.e., the 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene (the exo/endo selectivity depended upon the dienophile) and the alkoxycyclohexadiene systems, were isolated and comprehensively characterized; this included X-ray diffraction analyses. The role of the base (DABCO) as an organocatalyst was further elucidated.     

Selective synthesis of some 5-hydrazono-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones

A simple, highly selective transformation of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-1-benzopyran-2,5-diones 1–3 and 14 with some phenylhydrazines and heterocyclic hydrazines to 5-hydrazono-2H-1-benzopyran-2-ones 4–12 and 15–16 is described. Under more severe conditions the hydrazonoquinoline derivative 17 was obtained from the benzopyran derivative 3 and Phenylhydrazine.     

Aminolysis of 2,2-difluoro-4-alkoxy-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes: route to β-keto amides and β-enamino carboxamides

4-Alkoxy substituted 1,3,2-dioxaborinanes 1, readily available from β-keto esters, undergo substitution reactions under mild reaction conditions with primary and secondary amines, deriving the 4-alkylamino analogue 2. Reactions of 1 with substituted phenylhydrazines gave the corresponding hydrazones, or pyrazolones, and 5-alkoxy-1H-pyrazoles as a mixture of products.     

Fluoro-containing coordination compounds of chromium(III). V. Preparation and crystal structure of the Racemic Cis-[Cr(en)2F2]ClO4 · NaClO4 · H2O

Cis-[Cr(en)₂F₂]ClO₄ · NaClO₄ · H₂O (en = 1,2-diaminoethane) was obtained as the red crystalline product from the saturated solutions of both NaClO₄ and cis-[Cr(en)₂F₂]ClO₄ in water. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic P2₁/n (No.14) space group with a = 9.540(2), b = 11.840(2); c = 14.659(3) Å, β = 95.02(1)°, Z = 4. The unit cell of the racemic crystal contains cis-[Cr(en)₂F₂]⁺ in the Λλλ and Δδδ enantiometric forms, Na⁺, ClO₄^?, and lattice H₂O. Cr has octahedral coordination. Cr? F and Cr? N bonds are 1.868(4), 1.887(5) and from 2.067(2) to 2.100(8) Å. Mean Cl? O bond is 1.38 Å. Na⁺ ions are in the distorted octahedral environment. Infrared spectrum confirms the presence of the lattice H₂O and proves the cis structure of [Cr(en)₂F₂]⁺.     

Heterocycles. CXLII. Synthesis of some triazoloazine 3-oxides

The formation of 3-oxides of triazolopyridine, triazolopyridazine and triazolopyrazine was investigated. The corresponding 3-oxides were obtained by oxidative cyclization of 2-hydroxy-iminomethyleneaminoazines and some transformations are described.     

Heterocycles. CXXVII. Action of sulfur on some heterocyclic compounds. Formation of thioamides,oxidative cyclization and thiation

The formation of heterocyclic thioamides from alkylpyridines, heteroaromatic amines and sulfur was investigated. Oxidative cyclization of these thioamides afforded the corresponding thiazoloazines. Attempted thiation of some hydrazones gave triazolopyridines and some examples of direct thiation of heterocycles are given.
