Ionic liquids/[bmim][N3] mixtures: promising media for the synthesis of aryl azides by SNAr
2008
The nucleophilic aromatic substitution of some activated aryl or heteroaryl halides has been performed in ionic liquid solution, using the 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium azide as a nucleophile. The reaction course was studied varying the structures of both substrates and ionic liquids. In particular, in the latter case, the reaction of 2-bromo-5-nitrothiophene was carried out in five different ionic liquids ([bmim][BF 4], [bmim][PF 6], [bmim][NTf 2], [bm 2im][NTf 2], and [bmpyrr][NTf 2]). Finally, for all the substrates considered, a comparison with data obtained in MeOH solution in the presence of NaN 3 was also performed. Data collected indicate that in some cases it is possible to obtain ar…
High chemoselectivity of CS dipolarophile in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrilimines and 1,2,4-triazepin-5-one derivatives: experimental, theoreti…
2005
Substituted 2,7-dimethyl-3-thioxo-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2,4]triazepin-5-one reacts as a dipolarophile with several N-aryl-C-ethoxycarbonylnitrilimines, in equimolar quantities, to give, in all cases, two types of products: diethyl 3-(p-aryl)-2-[N′-(p-aryl)-N′-(2′,7′-dimethyl-5′-oxo-5′,6′-dihydro-2H-[1,2,4]triazepin-3′-yl)-hydrazino]-2,3-dihydro[1,3,4]thiadiazole-2,5-dicarboxylate (3a–3c in 20–25% yield) and ethyl 4-(p-aryl)-5-imino-1,4-dihydro[1,3,4]thiadiazole carboxylate (4a–4c in 45–50% yield). When 1:2 stoichiometry was used, the formation of product 3 (50%) was favoured. The reaction is entirely chemo- and regioselective. The structures of the compounds obtained, where aryl stands f…
Regio-specific synthesis of new 1-(tert-butyl)-1H-pyrazolecarboxamide derivatives
2017
Regio-specific and non-regiospecific condensation reactions on 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds rendered 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles. Herein, the control of regio-specificity was a significant improvement in pyrazole research. A high yield acylation of poorly nucleophilic aryl amines, which resulted in mono- or diacylated products depending on the reaction conditions, is described. As a result, a library of potentially bioactive compounds was obtained. Fil: Ruatta Merke, Santiago Matías. Universidad Nacional del Litoral.

Heterocyclic photorearrangements. Photochemical behaviour of some 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles in methanol at 254 nm
1988
Photochemical behaviour of some 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles in methanol at 254 nm has been investigated. Ring photoisomerization to the 1,3,4-oxadiazole heterocycle or formation of open chain compounds involving the nucleophilic solvent was shown to depend on the nature and the position of the substituent. Photoinduced ring closure into the benzimidazole system, involving a 3-N-phenylamino side chain sequence and a photolytic intermediate of the oxadiazole heterocycle, is also reported.

1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of electrophilically activated benzonitrile N-oxides. Polar cycloaddition versus oxime formation.
2006
The reactions of electrophilically activated benzonitrile N-oxides (BNOs) toward 3-methylenephthalimidines (MPIs) have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31G* level. For these reactions, two different channels allowing the formation of the [3 + 2] cycloadducts and two isomeric (E)- and (Z)-oximes have been characterized. The 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions take place along concerted but highly asynchronous transition states, while formation of the oximes is achieved through a stepwise mechanism involving zwitterionic intermediates. Both reactions are initiated by the nucleophilic attack of the methylene carbon of the MPIs to the carbon atom of the electrophilically…
Triazolopyridines. Part 8.1 Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 5-bromo[1,2,3]triazolo[5,1-a]isoquinoline and 7-bromo[1,2,3]-triazolo[1,5-a]pyridi…

Abstract Nucleophilic substitution of 5-bromotriazoloisoquinoline (3) and of 7-bromo-3-methyltriazolopyridine (6) proceeds readily to give a range of 5-substituted triazoloisoquinolines (4a)-(4e), and of 7-substituted triazolopyridines (7a)-(7h) respectively. Triazoloisoquinolines have been converted into 1,3-disubstituted isoquinolines (11)-(13), (15), and (16), and triazolopyridines into 2,6-disubstituted pyridines (17)-(19). Of secondary amine nucleophiles, only piperidine reacted with 7-bromo-3-methyltriazolopyridine (6) to give the 7-substituted derivative (7g). A second product in this reaction was a 2,6-disubstituted pyridine (8); the similar compounds (20)-(24) were the only product…
Nucleophilic substitutions on bromotriazolopyridines - an improved route to 2,6-disubstituted pyridines and to 1,3-disubstituted isoquinolines
1986
Abstract A regiospecific synthesis of 2,6-disubstituted pyridines and of 1,3-disubstituted isoquinolines is described.
Understanding the mechanism of stereoselective synthesis of cyclopentenes via N-heterocyclic carbene catalyzed reactions of enals with enones.
2010
The N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed addition of enals to enones to yield trans-cyclopentenes has been investigated using DFT methods at B3LYP/6-31G** computational level. This NHC catalyzed reaction comprises several steps. The first one is the formation of a Breslow intermediate, which nucleophilically attacks to the conjugated position of the enone to yield an enol-enolate. This second step is responsible for the trans relationship at the final cyclopentene. An intramolecular aldolic condensation allows for the formation of the alkoxy cyclopentane intermediate, that by intramolecular nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl group yields a bicyclic ether. The extrusion of the NHC catalys…
Theoretical Study of Primary Reaction of Pseudozyma antarctica Lipase B as the Starting Point To Understand Its Promiscuity
2014
Pseudozyma antarctica lipase B (PALB) is a serine hydrolase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of carboxylic acid esters in aqueous medium but it has also shown catalytic activity for a plethora of reactions. This promiscuous activity has found widespread applications. In the present paper, the primary reaction of PALB, its native hydrolytic activity, has been studied using hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) potentials. Free energy surfaces, obtained from QM/MM Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, show that the reaction takes place by means of a multi-step mechanism where the first step, the activation of the carbonyl group of the substrate and the nucleophilic attack of Ser1…
