Polycondensed nitrogen heterocycles. Part 22. Pyrrolo[3,4-d]-1,2,3-triazines: A new ring system as potential antineoplastic agent
1989
Diazotization of the 3-aminopyrrole-4-carboxamides 6a,b under different conditions directly led to the new ring system pyrrolo[3,4-d]-1,2,3-triazine in excellent yields through an intramolecular coupling reaction. In all the cases it was impossible to isolate the intermediate 3-diazopyrroles.
Novel Applications of Dynamic NMR in Organic Chemistry
2003
Abstract This review article is oriented on NMR applications in studying various dynamic processes of organic molecules. The topic as a whole is too large to be covered exhaustively in one article or by one author. Therefore, the literature searches are limited mainly for the years 1999–2001. Further, many interesting branches joined essentially with organic chemistry such as supramolecular and organometallic chemistry are left outside this article because there exist recent reviews on these topics. Similarly, the theoretical background of dynamic NMR is not included. The nature of dynamic NMR itself is changing with the recent progress in computational possibilities to estimate the differe…
Mechanism of the oxidation of sulfides by dioxiranes: conformational mobility and transannular interaction in the oxidation of thianthrene 5-oxide.
2004
The detailed study of the oxidation of thianthrene 5-oxide (1) with methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane (5b) in different solvents and in the presence of (18)O isotopic tracers is reported. Thianthrene 5-oxide (1) is a flexible molecule in solution, and this property allows for transannular interaction of the sulfoxide group with the expected zwitterionic 7 and hypervalent 10-S-4 sulfurane 9 intermediates formed in the oxidation and biases the course of the reaction toward the monooxygenation pathway.
ISomerization of xylene: MINDO/3 study of the cyclization of benzenium cation into bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenyl cation
1989
Abstract A MINDO/3 study of thermal electrocyclic closing of the benzenium cation to form a bicyclo[3.1.0]hexenyl cation is presented. The calculated mechanism discusses the possibility of cyclization of xylenium cations on a silica catalyst or in superacid media. The structure and energy of the transition state, the enthalpies of isomerization and barriers of activation were calculated for the following processes: isomerization of 2,6-dimethylbenzenium cation into 2,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexenyl cation, isomerization of 2,4-dimethylbenzenium cation into 2,4-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]-hexenyl cation, and isomerization of benzenium cation into bicyclo[3.1.0]-hexenyl cation. Equilibrium and kin…
An Approach to 2,4-Substituted Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridines and Pyrazolo[1,5-a]azepines by Ring-Closing Metathesis
2013
The ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reactions of dienylpyrazoles have been employed in the synthesis of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine and pyrazolo[1,5-a]azepine derivatives. Based on this approach, the diastereoselective synthesis of potential peptidomimetics containing four amino acid residues with the second (i+1) and third (i+2) fragments having been substituted by bicyclic frameworks is described.
On the Reactivity of C(sp3)–H σ-Bonds: Oxygenation with Methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane
2008
The reactivity of C–H σ-bonds of a series of 2-substituted adamantanes 2 towards methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane (1) shows a consistent dependence on the electron-withdrawing ability, either inductive or by resonance, of the substituent. The results are interpreted in terms of the ability of the substrate molecule to delocalize the electronic perturbation of the reacting center at the beginning of the reaction path. The model shows that the electronic demand from the reacting C–H σ-bond is transmitted along the substrate through a chain of hyperconjugative interactions, the relative intensities of which depend on the σ-bonds involved. The substrate molecule simultaneously provides positive…
Tricks and Tracks in the Identification and Quantification of Endocannabinoids
2013
Abstract The endocannabinoid system serves pivotal roles in a diverse range of physiological and pathophysiological states, including behavior, pain, schizophrenia, obesity, Alzheimer disease, multiple sclerosis and cardiovascular disease. A number of endocannabinoids (eCBs) and their receptors have been characterised and identified in a plethora of biological matrices. The eCBs include N-arachidonoyl ethanolamine (anandamide), 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, 2-arachidonoyl glyceryl ether (noladin ether), O-arachidonoyl ethanolamine (virodhamine) and N-arachidonoyl dopamine. Advanced targeted mass spectrometry methods, particularly the selected reaction monitoring, has facilitated sensitive quanti…
ChemInform Abstract: Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Ring-Opening of Strained Olefins Through C-H Activation of O-Acetyl Ketoximes: An Efficient Synthesis of …
2014
An efficient strategy for the stereoselective synthesis of functionalized cyclopentenes and spiro[2.4]heptenes from strained olefins via C–H activation of aryl ketone O-acetyl ketoximes using [RhCl2Cp∗]2 catalyst is described. The results revealed that a wide range of readily accessible aryl and heteroaryl ketoximes are compatible in this method for the ring opening of bicyclic and spirotricyclic olefins.
Multinuclear magnetic resonance study of 1,3,3-trimethylbicyclo [2.2.1]heptan-2-one (fenchone) oxime, its five monochloro derivatives and a dehydroch…
1991
Fenchone oxime, 5-exo-chlorofenchone oxime, 6-exo-chlorofenchone oxime, 7-anti-chlorofenchone oxime, 8-chlorofenchone oxime, 9-chlorofenchone oxime and a dehydrochlorination product of 10-chlorofenchone oxime were synthesized from fenchone and the corresponding chlorofenchones. The 1H, 13C and 17O NMR spectra of the oximes and the dehydrochlorination product were recorded. The NMR data were compared with the corresponding parameters obtained earlier for fenchone and monochlorofenchones in order to determine the differences between the carbonyl and oxime substituents from the NMR spectroscopic point of view, and to assign the stereochemistry of the oxime group. This stereochemistry could not…
Why Do Five-Membered Heterocyclic Compounds Sometimes Not Participate in Polar Diels–Alder Reactions?
2013
The reactions of bicyclic enone (BCE, 1) with cyclopentadiene (Cp, 2) and the five-membered heterocyclic compounds (FHCs) furan 3 and N-methyl pyrrole 4 for the construction of polycyclic heterocyclic compounds have been studied at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. No reaction takes place in the absence of Lewis acid (LA) catalysts as a consequence of the high activation energy associated with these reactions. Electrophilic activation of BCE 1 by formation of a complex with the BF3 LA, 1-BF3, and solvent effects favor the reactions. However, a different reactivity is manifested by Cp 2 and FHCs 3 and 4. Thus, while the reaction of 1-BF3 with Cp 2 yields the expected exo [4 + 2] cycloadduct, the react…
