rac-(E,trans)-4-Bromo-10,10-dimethyl-9,11-dioxabicyclo[6.3.0]undec-4-ene

2020

In the title compound, a cyclooctene ring in a twist-boat conformation and a dioxolane ring with a distorted envelope conformation are annulated in a trans configuration. Alternating strands of single enantiomers build up the crystal. Within the strands, the molecules are connected by weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds.

On the rearrangement of some Z-arylhydrazones of 3-benzoyl-5-phenylisoxazoles into 2-aryl-4-phenacyl-2H-1,2,3-triazoles: a kinetic study of the subst…

Abstract The rearrangement of eight new Z -arylhydrazones of 3-benzoyl-5-phenylisoxazoles ( 3d – k ) into the relevant 2-aryl-4-phenacyl-2 H -1,2,3-triazoles ( 4d – k ) in dioxane/water solution at different proton concentrations has been quantitatively studied in a wide temperature range (293–333 K). The data collected together with some our previous ones on compounds 3a – c have allowed a deep study of the substituent effects on the course of the rearrangement, thus increasing our knowledge on the Boulton–Katritzky reactions in isoxazole derivatives and on the temperature effects on free energy relationships.

Photochemistry of Fluorinated Heterocyclic Compounds. An Expedient Route for the Synthesis of Fluorinated 1,3,4-Oxadiazoles and 1,2,4-Triazoles

2004

The photochemistry of some 3-N-alkylamino-5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles in the presence of nitrogen nucleophiles such as ammonia and primary and secondary aliphatic amines has been investigated. The primary photolytic intermediate from the cleavage of the ring O-N bond follows two distinct and competing pathways leading to (i). 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles, through the ring contraction-ring expansion photoisomerization route favored by the presence of the base or (ii). 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazoles, through the intervention, as an internal nucleophile, of the exocyclic N-alkylamino moiety of the oxadiazole followed by the attack of the external nitrogen nucleophile and subsequ…

Non-Classical Transformation of Benzendiazonium Hydrogen Sulfates. Access to 1,3-Dimethylisochromeno[4,3-c]pyrazol-5(1H)-one, a Potential Benzodiazep…

The compound 2-((1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)(methyl)carbamoyl)benzene-diazonium hydrogen sulfate (10) was reacted with copper sulfate and sodium chloride, in the presence of ascorbic acid as reducing agent, to afford a mixture of the chlorinated epimers 4′-chloro-2,2′,5′-trimethyl-2′,4′-dihydrospiro[isoindoline-1,3′-pyrazol]-3-one (18) and (19), the epimers 4′-hydroxy-2,2′,5′-trimethyl-2′,4′-dihydrospiro[isoindoline-1,3′-pyrazol]-3-one (20) and (21), and N-(1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)benzamide (22). Under the foregoing conditions, diazonium salt 10 affords neither the 2-chloro-N-(1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-N-methylbenzamide (23) nor the tricyclic derivative 24, the classical products…

Optimization of a new lead promoting the readthrough of the nonsense mutations for CFTR rescue in human CF cells

Optimization of a new lead promoting the readthrough of the nonsense mutations for CFTR rescue in human CF cells Laura Lentini, Raffaella Melfi, Sara Baldassano, Marco Tutone, Aldo Di Leonardo, Andrea Pace, Ivana Pibiri Department of Biological, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences and Technologies (STEBICEF), University of Palermo Background and rationale Cystic Fibrosis patients with nonsense mutations in the CFTR gene have a more severe form of the disease. Nonsense mutations represent about 10% of the mutations that affect the CFTR gene and they are frequently associated to the classical F508 mutation (1). A potential treatment for this genetic alteration is to promote the translationa…

Bioactive Azoles with Three Heteroatoms

2010

This issue is dedicated to scientists belonging to either or both the fields of heterocyclic and medicinal chemistry. Nowadays, pharmaceutical industries are more and more dedicating their research towards different use or applications of the same molecule rather than towards the development of new drugs. In the latter decades, in fact, the time which is necessary since a given molecule is synthesized to when it is approved as a drug has significantly increased. Therefore, the development of time-saving methodologies such as combinatorial chemistry and computationally driven drug design has attracted the interest of several organic and medicinal chemists. Many of the molecules tested in-vit…

New examples of specific base catalysis in mononuclear rearrangements of heterocycles found via a designed modification of the side chain structure

2009

To select suitable candidates for the occurrence of specific-base-catalysis in MRH of (Z)-hydrazones of 3-benzoyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole we have designed a modification of the side-chain structure by linking a strong electron-withdrawing system to the hydrazono group. Thus we have synthesized the (Z)-semicarbazone (3d), the (Z)-phenylsemicarbazone (3e), and the (Z)-acetylhydrazone (3f) of the above oxadiazole and examined their kinetic behavior in dioxane/water in a large range of proton concentrations (pS + 4.0 14.5). In all the pS+ range examined only a base-catalyzed process has been evidenced (no uncatalysed path occurs). The behavior at the largest pS+ values (the reactivity tends t…
