Abstract: | Remarkably stable mesoionic oxazolones possessing an oxazolo3,2-a]quinolinium structure (5a–b),8,16, 17) were obtained by the double cyclisation of phenylglycine-o-carboxylic acids (3a–c) in refluxing acetic anhydride or in benzoic anhydride at 140°, The 0-Ac group was eliminated to give the corresponding lactones (6a–b) or replaced by O-Ts (7). IR stretching vibrations of the endo-carbonyl were in the range 1710–1768 cm?1, while v1-CH exhibited unusually high values (3159–3194 cm-1). 1-Acyl derivatives could be obtained only with TFAA (23–24), although easy deuteration of the same position took place in the presence of traces of trifluoroacetic acid. Hydrolysis of 5b led to the α-quinolone-N-acetic acid 27a. In the case of 5a, hydrolysis was accompanied by self-acylation of the nucleophilic site at C-4 with formation of a dimeric acid 28a. The presence of an additional Me group in phenylalanine-o-carboxylic acid (36) activates the corresponding mesoionic oxazolone 37 so that 1-acylation becomes possible with formation of the fused oxazole 38 by the Dakin-West reaction. Temperature dependent magnetic non-equivalence of methylene protons has been observed in acids 3b-d and f and also in the 7-membered anhydride 48b. |
