Synthesis of plagiochiline N from santonin.
2001
This article reports the transformation of O-acetylisophotosantonin, obtained by photochemical rearrangement of santonin, into plagiochiline N, an ent-2,3-secoaromadendrane isolated from Plagiochila ovalifolia. The synthesis was carried out in a sequence involving as the key steps (a) the substitution of the lactone moiety by a gem-dimethylcyclopropane ring through a synthetic intermediate having a C(6)-C(7) double bond and (b) the ozonolysis of the C(2)-C(3) bond followed by cyclization to the dihydropyran ring characteristic of plagiochiline N. Spectroscopic data of the synthetic product fully coincided with the reported data for the natural product.
Fluorinated Heterocyclic Compounds. An Expedient Route to 5-Perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazoles via an Unusual Hydrazinolysis of 5-Perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-ox…
2003
The hydrazinolysis reaction of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles has been investigated. Nucleophilic addition of the reagent to the C(5)-N(4) double bond of the oxadiazole ring, followed by ring-opening and then ring-closure involving the beta-nitrogen atom of the hydrazino moiety and the C(3) of the oxadiazole ring, explains the formation of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-triazoles as final products. Useful applications in synthesis of this uncommon hydrazinolysis can be claimed.
Reactivity of the carbon-carbon double bond towards nucleophilic additions. A dft analysis
2004
Abstract The global and local electrophilicity indexes have been used to characterize the reactivity pattern of the CC double bond towards nucleophilic addition reactions. A wide family of molecules including ketones, esters, anhydrides, nitriles and nitrocompounds containing appropriate substitution on the CC double bond have been classified within an unique scale of reactivity. The predictive capability of the theoretical model is tested against a series of benzylidenemalononitriles and substituted α-nitrostilbenes.
Revisiting the photochemical synthesis of [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics: reaction optimization, mechanistic study and electrochemical behaviour
2020
The photoreaction of [(μ-S)2Fe2(CO)6] and alkenes or alkynes has been optimized to readily obtain functionalized [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics. Irradiation under low CO pressure in THF produces the corresponding photo-adducts in good/acceptable (alkenes/alkynes) yields, with retention of the starting olefin stereochemistry. DFT-calculations provide plausible reaction pathways in both, singlet and triplet states. The DFT-calculation based in the singlet state is energetically more favorable. The electrochemical behavior of the synthesized compounds is also presented, including studies in acidic media. The electrochemical properties of the products vary in the presence of a double bond (cycloaddi…
Reactions of Piperazin-2-one, Morpholin-3-one, and Thiomorpholin-3-one with Triethyl Phosphite Prompted by Phosphoryl Chloride: Scope and Limitations
2019
The reaction of the title lactams with triethyl phosphite prompted by phosphoryl chloride provided six-membered ring heterocyclic phosphonates or bisphosphonates. These novel scaffolds might be of interest as building blocks in medicinal chemistry. The course of the reaction was dependent on the structure of the used substrate. Thus, morpholin-3-one and thiomorpholin-3-one readily provided the corresponding 1,1-bisphosphonates (compounds 1, 2, 7, 14 and 16), whereas the protection of their nitrogen atom resulted in the formation of dehydrophosphonates (compounds 5, 6, and 8). Piperazin-2-one reacted differently yielding mixture of cis- and trans- piperazine-2,3-diyl-bisphosphonates (compoun…
Flexible Synthesis of Planar Chiral Azoninones and Optically Active Indolizidinones
2014
The flexible synthesis of defined substituted optically active indolizidinones starting from chiral pool (S)-proline and trans 4-hydroxy-(S)-proline is described. Several defined 2-vinylpyrrolidines were generated in short sequences. The aza-Claisen rearrangement using chloro and phenylketene equivalents delivered nine-membered-ring lactams with up to three stereogenic centres and pS-arranged E olefins. Depending on the substitution pattern, certain azoninones had a flexible conformation and showed pS/pR double-bond flipping. Treatment of the unsaturated lactams with the soft electrophile iodine induced diastereoselective transannular ring contractions. Here, the planar chiral arrangement o…
Hydrogen bonds in unpolar matrix — Comparison of complexation in polymeric and low molecular-weight systems
1991
By ene-reaction of 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione with double bonds, polar 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione (phenyl urazole) groups are introduced into unpolar matrices. Hydrogen-bond complexes are formed between two amide-like units. The temperature dependence of complex formation in dilute hydrocarbon medium is obtained from remperature-dependent IR spectra in the region of the C=O stretching vibration. Results obtained for a low molecular-weight model system are compared with modified polybutadienes, where the groups are attached statistically along the polymer backbone. The enthalpy and the entropy of complex formation (ΔH f =−28.6 kJ/mol; ΔS f =−52 J/mol K−1) obtained for the…
Reactions of Maleisomides with Alcohols
2004
Abstract New surfactants (surfmers) with various amide and ester groups next to C˭C double bonds have been obtained. Maleic acid amidesters (AE) with different hydrophobic groups at the nitrogen atom and hydrophilic substituents at oxygen atoms were synthesized starting with maleic isoimides. 1H KMR and IR spectra were used for their characterization. Some were further characterized for their critical micellar concentration (CMC). A few cationic and zwitterionic surfmers were also prepared from isoimide precursors and characterized. All these surfmers were applied in batch emulsion polymerization of styrene, and in core‐shell seeded copolymerization of styrene and butylacrylate to give late…
Influence of the irradiation parameters on the molecular modifications of an isotactic polypropylene gamma-irradiated under vacuum
2000
Isotactic polypropylene was irradiated under vacuum in a complete set of experimental conditions. The influence of the irradiation parameters, total absorbed dose, D, and dose rate, I, was analysed in order to verify the theoretical predictions of a simple kinetic model, already presented (Sarcinelli L, Valenza A, Spadaro G. Polymer 1997;38:2307), based on the rates of the main reactions occurring during irradiation, i.e. β-scission, addition to double bonds and termination. The concentration of free radicals and double bonds formed during irradiation is detected together with a comparison to their dependence on the irradiation parameters. A quantitative determination of the “inversion curv…
Die alkoholyse des triethylsilans katalysiert von [(CH3)3P]2Ru(CO)2Cl2
1983
Abstract [(CH 3 ) 3 Pl 2 Ru(CO) 2 Cl 2 is an effective catalyst for the reaction of alcohols with triethylsilane. The rate of this reaction varies with the substituents in the hydroxy compound; it is fastest for short primary alcohols. Even in the presence of groups which can be hydrosilated (CC triple or double bonds, as well as ketones), a hydroxy group reacts preferably and completely with the silane. Kinetic experiments have been performed with the system Et 3 SiH/CH 3 CH(OH)COOEt/Ru complex.
