Abstract: | Abstract Sixteen new diazadi(or tri)thiacrown ethers containing two 5-substituent(or 2-methyl)-8-hydroxyquino-lin-2-ylmethyl side arms have been prepared by a three-step process. First, the appropriate bis(α-chloroamide)s were treated with five dimercaptans in base to form macrocyclic di(or tri)thiadiamides. The macrocyclic diamides were reduced by BH3-THF to form 1,7-diaza-4-oxa-10,13-dithia-cyclopentadecane (11); 1,7-diaza-4,13-dioxa-10,16-dithiacyclooctadecane (12); 1,7-diaza-4-oxa-10,13,16-trithiacyclooctadecane (13); 1,7-diaza-4,13,16-trioxa-10,19-dithiacycloheneicosane (14); and 1,10-diaza-4,7-dioxa-13,16-dithiacyclooctadecane (15). The diazadi(or tri)thiacrown ethers were then treated with 8-hydroxyquinoline, 8-hydroxy-5-methylquinoline, 5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline, and 8-hydroxyquinaldine in the presence of paraformal-delyde in refluxing benzene to form the bis(8-hydroxy-5-substituent(or 2-methyl)quinolin-7-ymethy)-substituted diazadi(or tri)thiacrown ethers 16-31. The crown ethers containing two 8-hydroxyquinoline or 8-hydroxyquinaldine side arms proved to be mixtures of about 90% bis(8-hydroxyquinolin-7-ylmethyl)-substituted crown ethers; 9% mixed (8-hydroxyquinolin-7-ymethyl)-substituted and (8-hydroxyquinolin-5-ylmethyl)-substituted crown ethers; and 1% bis(8-hydroxyquinolin-5-ylmethyl)-substituted crown ethers. |
