The synthesis of N-substituted ureas II: Nucleophilic substitution of ureas at the carbonyl group

Summary N-Arylsubstituted ureas undergo exchange of the N-residue upon reaction with amines. Using kinetic measurements, investigation of product distribution, regioselectivity, catalysis, and substrate influences, it was shown that this reaction proceeds via a second order nucleophilic substitution at the urea carbonyl center. By means of semiempirical calculations using the MNDO method the alternative mechanism of fragmentation was investigated.

Zur Synthese N-substituierter Harnstoffe II: Nucleophile Substitution von Harnstoffen an der Carbonylgruppe

Zusammenfassung N-Arylsubstituierte Harnstoffe erleiden bei der Reaktion mit Aminen einen Austausch des N-Restes. Durch kinetische Messungen, Untersuchung der Produktverteilung, Regioselektivität, Katalyse und des Einflusses des Edukts konnte abgeleitet werden, daß es sich hiebei um eine nucleophile Substitution zweiter Ordnung am Carbonylzentrum des Harnstoffs handelt. Durch semiempirische Rechnungen mit Hilfe der MNDO Methode wurde der alternative Reaktionsmechanismus einer Fragmentierung untersucht.

Thermal degradation of vinylidene chloride/vinyl chloride copolymers in the presence of N-substituted maleimides

As a consequence of their excellent barrier properties vinyl chloride/vinylidene chloride copolymers have long been prominent in the flexible packaging market. While these polymers possess a number of superior characteristics, they tend to undergo thermally- induced degradative dehydrochlorination at process temperatures. This degradation must be controlled to permit processing of the polymers. Three series of N-substituted maleimides (N-alkyl-, N-aralkyl, and N-aryl) have been synthesized, characterized spectroscopically, and evaluated as potential stabilizers for a standard vinyl chloride/vinylidene chloride (85 mass%) copolymer. As surface blends with the polymer, these compounds are ineffective as stabilizers. However, significant stabilization may be achieved by pretreatment of the polymer with N-substituted maleimides. The most effective stabilization of the polymer is afforded by N-aralkyl- or N-arylmaleimides, most notably, N-benzylmaleimide and N-p-methoxyphenylmaleimide.

Regioselective Condensation of Alkylidenephosphoranes to N-Methoxy- and N-Anilino-1H isoindole-1,3-(2H)-diones

Treatment of 2-methoxyisoindoline-1,3-dione with resonance-stabilized alkylidenephosphoranes afforded the corresponding monoalkenes as the sole reaction product, in ～58–63% yields, whereas more than 80% yields of the same monoolefin products were obtained when the reactions were carried out under microwave conditions. Similarly, 2-(phenylamino)isoindoline-1,3-dione reacted under either thermal or microwave conditions to give only the corresponding monoalkene derivatives. The alkene products from both substrates were further reduced to the corresponding isoindoles using Zn-dust in EtOH. Prediction of the designed compounds and the in vivo anti-inflammation activity of the products in the rat adjuvant model were also studied. The work is the first demonstration of the anti-inflammatory activity of phthalimide derivatives.     

An elegant protocol for the synthesis of N-substituted pyrroles through C–N cross coupling/aromatization process using CuFe2O4 nanoparticles as catalyst under ligand-free conditions

A simple and efficient, ligand-free C–N cross-coupling of aryl halides/benzyl bromides with trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline has been developed to produce aromatized N-substituted pyrroles, using a catalytic amount of magnetically separable and recyclable CuFe₂O₄ nanoparticles, in the presence of Cs₂CO₃ in DMSO at 100 °C.     

Synthesis and Investigation of Tetrahydro-β-carboline Derivatives as Inhibitors of Plant Pathogenic Fungi

A series of tetrahydro-ß-carbolines substituted with an alkyl or acyl side chain was synthesized and screened for its antifungal activity against plant pathogenic fungi (Bipolaris oryzae, Curvularia lunata, Fusarium semitectum, and Fusarium fujikuroi). The structure activity relationship revealed that the substituent at the piperidine nitrogen plays an important role for increasing antifungal activities. In this series, 2-octyl-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indole (3g) displayed potent antifungal activities with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 0.1 μg/mL, including good inhibitory activity to the radial growth of fungus at a concentration of 100 μg/mL compared to amphotericin B.     

An efficient synthesis of medicinally important indole based triarylmethanes by using propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P®)

Abstract

We have developed an economical and efficient method for the synthesis of medicinally and synthetically important indole-based triarylmethanes by using indoles and benzhydrols in the presence of propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P^®). This methodology is an alternate approach for the C–C bond formation with good to excellent yields. In this T3P-mediated dehydration approach, the by-product is highly soluble in water, so that it can be done at larger scale also. In addition to that this efficient protocol has several advantages such as mild reaction conditions, short reaction time and operational simplicity. We have successfully synthesized pyrrole, imidazothiadiazole and imidazolo pyridine based triarylmethanes also.     

Radical copolymerization of N-alkylmaleimides with isobutene and the properties of the resulting alternating copolymers

Radical copolymerization of N-methylmaleimide (MeMI) as well as other N-alkylmaleimides (RMI) and isobutene (IB) was carried out with 2,2′-azobis(isobutyronitrile) as an initiator at 60°C. The initial rate of the copolymerization (R_p) was dependent on the monomer composition and was maximum at the 40 mol % of MeMI in the feed. A solvent effect on the R_p and the monomer reactivity ratio was observed in this copolymerization system, i.e., copolymerization in chloroform produced a higher R_p and an alternating tendency compared with those in dioxane (r_MeMI = 0.14, r_1B = 0 in chloroform and r_MeMI = 0.47, r_1B = 0 in dioxane). The alternating copolymer of RMI and IB shows a high glass transition temperature (T_g) and excellent thermal stability, e.g., the T_g and the thermal decomposition temperature (T_d) were 152 and 363°C, respectively, for the alternating copolymer of MeMI and IB. Both the T_g and T_d increased as the concentration of the MeMI unit in the copolymers increased. Colorless transparent sheets were obtained from press molding the alternating copolymers. They showed excellent mechanical and optical properties. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
