Unequivocal determination of isomeric products of reaction between 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-4,5-dione and aromatic 1,2-diamines

1999

Abstract Regioselectivity of condensation of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-4,5-dione with aromatic 1,2-diamines is dependent on substituent present. Isomeric 3-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo-[3,4-b]-quinoxaline products are distinguished by comparison of their 2D z-gradient selected 1H, 15N HMBC (Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation) spectra. Multiplicity of H5 signal, which is recognizable by the cross-peak for CH3(3)-N4 and H5-N4 interactions, indicates substitution in position 6 or 7. The applied method is expected to be useful for structure determinations in other positional isomers.

ChemInform Abstract: Regio- and Stereoselective Synthesis of Spiropyrrolizidines and Piperazines Through Azomethine Ylide Cycloaddition Reaction.

2016

A series of original spiropyrrolizidine derivatives has been prepared by a one-pot three-component [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of (E)-3-arylidene-1-phenyl-pyrrolidine-2,5-diones, l-proline, and the cyclic ketones 1H-indole-2,3-dione (isatin), indenoquinoxaline-11-one and acenaphthenequinone. We disclose an unprecedented isomerization of some spiroadducts leading to a new family of spirooxindolepyrrolizidines. Furthermore, these cycloadducts underwent retro-1,3-dipolar cycloaddition yielding unexpected regioisomers. Upon treatment of the dipolarophiles with in situ generated azomethine ylides from l-proline or acenaphthenequinone, formation of spiroadducts and unusual polycyclic fused pip…

Adult Lactose Tolerance Is Not an Advantageous Evolutionary Trait

2004

To the Editor. I read with great interest the recent article from Fomon1 in which he refers to the well-known hypothesis that views the variable frequencies of lactase persistence in different human populations and, consequently, the possibility for some adults to feed on milk (lactose tolerance) as an advantageous evolutionary trait that has been genetically determined and brought about through centuries of natural selection. This notion stands as a common statement in current medical literature, and most authors have accepted its validity since the 1970s.2,3 Because adult mammals are lactose-intolerant, this hypothesis is, moreover, based on the low percentage of lactose malabsorption and…

ChemInform Abstract: Stereoselective Synthesis of Quinolizidine Alkaloids: (-)-Lasubin II.

2008

Initially, lasubin II was synthesized diastereoselectively in racemic form [3]. Asymmetric syntheses of lasubin II were achieved based on stereoselective transformations of enantiomerically pure substrates [4] or, for example, via a diastereoselective aza-Diels-Alder reaction using a resolved chiral arylaldehyde tricarbonylchromium complex [5]. Recently, an enantioselectively catalyzed aza-Diels-Alder reaction [6] and a [2+2+2] cycloaddition reaction [7] were successfully used for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure lasubin II.

Synthesis and Properties of Some Simple Organotitanium Compounds

1986

Before embarking on a detailed discussion of the titanation of carbanions, synthetic and physical organic aspects of several typical organotitanium (IV) compounds shall be surveyed, including thermal stability, aggregation state, X-ray structural data and bond energies. Some of this information is useful in understanding reactivity and selectivity in reactions with organic substrates. Low valent Ti (II) and Ti (III) shall be mentioned only on passing; the interested reader is referred to reviews [1].

(E,E,E)-4,4′-Distyrylstilbenes – Synthesis, Photophysics, Photochemistry and Phase Behavior

2008

The fluorescence quantum yields F(n) of oligo[2,5-bis(propyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene]s (1b) reach for the trimer (n = 3) in solution a maximum of 86 %, which is almost twice as high as for the monomer (n = 1) and the octamer or undecamer (n = 8, 11). The latter represent the convergence limit of 46 %. 4-Mono-, 3,4-di- or 3,4,5-trisubstituted terminal phenyl rings in the trimers 6a–f do not lead to calamitic or phasmidic liquid crystals; however, 2,3,4-trisubstitution with hexyloxy groups (6h) and even with OCH3 groups (6g) effects LC formation. Irradiation with energy-rich UV light provokes a crosslinking of the originally conjugated chains. In the case of 6c, a chemo- and stereoselective…

Electrochemical oxidation of 2,4,5-triaryl-substituted pyrroles.II. Oxidative dimerization of 4,5-diphenyl-2-mesitylylpyrrole

1989

2,4,5-Triaryl-substituted pyrroles lead, upon chemical or electrochemical oxidation, to an intermediate β-β'-dimer, which, in the course of the reaction, undergoes further oxidation to a tetracyclic derivative. To improve the selectivity towards the uncyclized dimer the oxidation of a triarylpyrrole in which the ortho positions of the phenyl group in position 2 are hindered by the presence of methyl groups was attempted. The cyclization was hindered, but an α-β'-dimer was obtained as the major product. An unexspected isomeric α-β'-dimer, in which the mesitylyl group is shifted into the β position of the pyrrole ring which undergoes the oxidation, was obtained in minor amounts. Electroanalyt…
