Hydrogen-carbon, carbon-carbon double rearrangement induced by proximity effects. 1-formation of methoxybenzyl ions in the electron impact mass spect…
1991
The 75 eV electron impact mass spectra of 1,1-bis(dimethoxyphenyl)methanes bearing o-methoxy groups are dominated by intense peaks corresponding, at least formally, to benzyl ions [(CH3O)2C6H3CH2]+(b). They arise from ions [((CH3O)2C6H3)2CH]+(a), which are in turn formed from molecular ions by loss of an alkyl radical through benzylic cleavage. The analysis of compounds labelled with 2H or 13C at methoxy groups led to the determination of the mechanism. Hydrogen migration, as hydride, followed by electrophilic substitution by the methylene carbon of the phenyl methylene ether cation through a six-centred transition state is responsible for the formation of benzylic ions b.
Zur protonenkatalysierten elektrophilen substitution von 2,3-dimethylindol mit arylaldehyden: C6-regioselektivität am indol-gerüst
1986
The proton catalyzed reaction of 2,3-dimethylindole (1) with several arylaldehydes 2 yields the 6,6′bisindolylarylmethanes 5 regioselectively. No mechanistic information about the predominant attack of the aldehydes on the indole nucleus is obtained, because the reaction proceeds too fast to control. The electron-rich aldehydes, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and indole-3-carbaldehyde, yield exclusively the 6,6′,6″-trisin-dolylmethane 9. The constitutions of all isolated methanes were elucidated by 400 MHz 1H-nmr spectroscopy.
First Electrophilic Substitutions of 3-Substituted Indoles with Diethoxycarbenium Tetrafluoroborate: Functionalized Indole Derivatives
1990
The indoles 2a-2c react with diethoxycarbenium tetrafluoroborate (1) to furnish the indolecarbaldehydes 3a-3d. In the thermodynamically controlled reaction of 3-methylindole (2a) with 1 the tris(indolyl)methane 4 and diskatole (5), are formed in addition. The limitations of these reactions are discussed and evidence is presented for a C-3-ipso-attack and a Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement, respectively, leading to the formation of 3b or 3d. Erste elektrophile Substitution von 3-substituierten Indolen mit Diethoxycarbenium-Tetrafluoroborat: Funktionalisierte Indol-Derivate Die Indole 2a-2c reagieren mit dem per se synthetisierten Diethoxycarbenium-Tetrafluoroborat (1) zu den Indolcarbaldehyden …
Nucleophilic substitutions in the isoindole series as a valuable tool to synthesize derivatives with antitumor activity
2011
Abstract A novel synthetic approach to the synthesis of 3-substituted isoindoles through nucleophilic substitution of 3-halo derivatives by charged carbon, and neutral nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur nucleophiles, assisted by a 1-acyl group, is reported. Aryl-thio-isoindoles, obtained through a direct nucleophilic substitution with sulfur nucleophiles, showed cytotoxic activity, with GI50 values from micromolar to sub-micromolar concentrations, against the total number of cell lines investigated.
Synthesis of β-d-mannosides from β-d-glucosides via an intramolecular Sn2 reaction at C-2
1992
Abstract The selective synthesis of β- d -mannosides was achieved by first synthesizing β- d -glucosides that carry a N -phenylcarbamoyl protecting group at O-3. These derivatives were transformed into the corresponding β- d -mannosides by intramolecular nucleophilic substitution with inversion of configuration at C-2, the O -triflyl group being the leaving group. Subsequent intramolecular attack of the neighboring carbamoyl group resulted in the formation of the 2,3-carbonate of the desired β d -mannoside.
Tandem Reactions of 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles with Allylamines
2011
A reaction of 3-chloro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles with allylamine and diallylamine has been investigated. 3,3a,4,5-Tetrahydroisoxazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines are produced through a tandem ANRORC/[3 + 2]cycloaddition pathway consisting of the addition of allylamine to the 1,2,4-oxadiazole, followed by ring opening, nitrone formation, and finally cycloaddition. 3-N-Allylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles were also obtained as minor products through a classical SNAr. Conversely, a reaction with diallylamine produces 3-N,N-diallylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazole and imidazoline through tandem SNAr/aziridination and nucleophilic ring opening.
An ab initio softness metric to measure the similarity between all pairs of amino acids
2010
Abstract The search for quantitative index of similarity between molecular moeties is important for its applications in pharmacology. Similarity is also an important concept in computational biology to measure the exchangeability of an amino acid by another in a protein sequence. In the present work, a distance between two molecules based on local and global softnesses of their fragments is defined. The method proposed is general and could be applied to any molecular library. It is first applied to compute the distance between the 190 pairs of different amino acids in their neutral states. Two amino acids belonging to the one of the biochemical class (aliphatic, sulfur-containing, acidic, ……
O-Alkylation of a lignite humic acid by phase-transfer catalysis
2006
A mild phase-transfer catalytic reaction has been conducted to O-alkylate the acidic functions of a lignite humic acid (HA), using tetrabutylammonium hydroxide as the phase-transfer catalyst. The HA acidic functional groups were made to react, in tetrahydrofuran, by nucleophilic substitution with several alkyl halides-methyl iodide, and ethyl, propyl, and butyl, and benzyl bromide. The occurrence of the O-alkylation reaction was assessed by elemental analysis and 1H NMR, CPMAS 13C NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy. Bonding of alkyl groups increased the carbon and hydrogen content and the H/C ratios of all the humic reaction products. Increased nitrogen in the reaction products suggested incomplete…
Conjugated Oligomers with Terminal Donor–Acceptor Substitution
2005
Conjugated oligomers represent a prominent class of compounds from a viewpoint of their theory, synthesis, and applications in materials science. Push-pull substitution with an electron donor D at one end of the conjugation and an electron acceptor A at the other end results in them having outstanding optical and electronical properties. This Review highlights fundamental synthetic strategies for the preparation of such oligomers with n repeat units (n=1, 2, 3, 4, ..) and the rules that govern their linear and nonlinear optical properties (absorption, frequency doubling and tripling). The unification of chemical, physical, and theoretical aspects with an interdisciplinary image of this clas…
Dual application of (aqua)(chlorido)(porphyrinato)chromium(III) as hypersensitive amine-triggered ON switch and for dioxygen activation.
2014
Although synthesis and substitution reactions of chlorido chromium(III) porphyrins Cr(III)(TPP)(Cl)(L) (H2TPP = 5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl porphyrin, L = pyridine, H2O, ROH, etc.), have been well-established in coordination chemistry for decades, an unexpected dichotomous reactivity of Cr(III)(TPP)(Cl)(H2O) (1) toward amines is disclosed here. This reactivity leads to the application of 1 as highly sensitive substoichiometric and irreversible ON switch for amine detection by an autocatalytic pathway. The concomitant activation of O2 by the 1/amine system is furthermore exploited in an electrochemically driven epoxidation of norbonene using O2 as initial oxidant.
