ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Pyrido(2,3-d)pyrimidinones by the Reaction of Aminopyrimidin-4-ones with Benzylidene Meldrum′s Acid Derivatives.

A series of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4,7-diones 5a-h were prepared from 6-amino-4-pyrimidones 1 and benzylidene Meldrum's acid derivatives 2 by cyclization reactions in boiling nitrobenzene. The structure of 5, determined by nmr measurements, reveals a selective orientation of 1 and 2 in the addition step.

Reaction of 4,5-diamino-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones with two equivalents of chalcones

The reaction of 4,5-diamino-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones 1 with two equivalents of the chalcones 2 leads in an acidic medium to the formation of the 2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-pyrimido[4,5-b][1,4]diazepin-6-one derivatives 3a-d. The structure elucidation of the products is based on nmr measurements and an X-ray diffraction.

4-Alkenyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole

Die Titelverbindungen 5 werden aus entsprechenden Alkylderivaten durch Bromierung/Dehydrobromierung (Weg A) oder durch Wittig-Reaktion (Weg B) dargestellt. Mit 4-Phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3,5-dion entstehen unter Erhaltung des Thiadiazolrings die Monoaddukte 12. 4-Alkenyl-1,2,3-thiadiazoles The title compounds 5 are prepared from the corresponding alkyl derivatives by bromination/dehydrobromination (route A) or by Wittig reaction (route B). 4-Phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dione yields the monoadducts 12 by maintenance of the thiadiazole ring.

The formation of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines by the reaction of 3-(4-chlorophenyl)pyrazol-5-amine with chalcones

Cyclocondensation reactions of the pyrazol-5-amine 1 and the 1-aryl-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones 2a-d yield the 6,7-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines 7a-d. Whereas 7a-c can be isolated in pure state, 7d is subjected to a spontaneous oxidation.

Multiple 1,2,3-thiadiazoles

A series of compounds 3a-d,i-n with two or three 1,2,3-thiadiazole rings, useful for photocrosslinking processes, was prepared from the di- or triketones 1a-d,i-n via the corresponding hydrazones 2a-d,i-n by applying the Hurd-Mori method. A special synthetic sequence, 1e, 2e, 3e, 3f/3g, was elaborated for the olefinic system 3h.

Die unsymmetrischen Cyclooctadienine: 1,3‐Cyclooctadien‐5‐in und 1,6‐Cyclooctadien‐3‐in

Verschiedene Varianten des synthetischen Zugangs zu den beiden Titelverbindungen 15 und 45 werden diskutiert. 15 und 45 konnen in situ umgesetzt werden. Fur die Isolierung in reiner Form ist ihre mittlere Lebensdauer zu gering. Sie isomerisieren sich auf der C8H8-Energiehyperflache zu Styrol (47) und/oder Benzocyclobuten (22).

ChemInform Abstract: The Reaction of Aromatic α,β-Unsaturated Ketones with 4,5- Diamino-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones.

The reaction of 4,5-diamino-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-6-ones 1 with one equivalent of the chalcones 2 leads in an acidic medium to the formation of the 2,4-diaryl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-pyrimido[4,5-b][1,4]diazepin-6-ones 3a-m. The structure elucidation of the products is based on detailed nmr investigations including selective 13C[1H] decoupling experiments.

4,4′‐Distyrylazobenzol als Chromophor

4,4′-Distyrylazobenzene as Chromophore 4,4′-Distyrylazobenzenes are prepared from 4,4′-dimethylazobenzene. Whereas the Siegrist method furnishes stereoselectively the (E,E,E) configuration, a Wittig olefination leads to a mixture of (Z,E,Z), (Z,E,E) and (E,E,E) isomers which can be easily separated. Irradiation of the intense absorption at λ ≈ 400 nm causes a selective (E) (Z) isomerization of the N = N bond of all three isomers. The reverse reaction takes part in the photochemical equilibration, moreover, it is a thermal process with a relatively low activation barrier.
