Regioselective Transesterifications of Cyclohexanone Derivatives Containing β-Keto and Malonic Ester Moieties
The cyclohexanone derivatives 1ā6 containing β-ketoester and α-disubstituted malonic ester moieties in the same molecule were found to undergo regioselective transesterifications with benzyl alcohol giving exclusively β-keto benzyl esters. On the contrary, the acyclic derivatives 9, 10 containing β-ketoester and α-monosubstituted malonic ester groups gave mixtures of transesterified products under the same reaction conditions
Lariat Ethers with Pendant Phenanthridine Units. Synthesis and Complexation of Na- and K-Picrate.
Lariat ethers 12 and 13 with appended phenanthridine fluorophoric units have been prepared as potential fluorescent chemosensor molecules for alkaline metal salts possessing aromatic anions. The starting 8-ethyloxycarbonylamino-6-methylphenanthridine (1) was converted via 2, 3, 6 and 7 to N-(2-tosylethyl)-derivatives 4 and 8 suitable for N-alkylations of diaza- and aza-18-crown-6. However, the alkylations failed, giving the 2-oxazolidinone derivative 5 formed by intramolecular cyclization of phenanthridine N-carbamate derivatives 4 and 8 in basic conditions. The phenanthridine derivative 10 having benzyl instead carbamate protection on 8-amino group successfully alkylated mono- and diaza-crown ethers, giving lariats 12 and 14. Subsequent removal of benzyl protection groups in acidic conditions gave lariats 13 and 15. Lariat 12 was found to form unique Na- and K-picrate complexes with the metal cation bound in the crown cavity and picrate anion intercalated between phenanthridine units
5-bromo- and 5-iodo-N-1-sulfonylated cytosine derivatives. Exclusive formation of keto-imino tautomers
N-1-Sulfonylated cytosine 5 and 5-halogeno-N-1-sulfonylated cytosine derivatives 1 and 2 were synthesized by condensation of silylated cytosine or 5-halogenocytosine bases with tosylchloride in acetonitrile, or by the reaction of cytosine or 5-halogenocytosine bases with tosylchloride in pyridine. The NMR evidences are presented, showing that 1 and 2 form exclusively rare keto-imino tautomers in DMSO-d(6) solution, while N-1-sulfonylated cytosine 5 appears as a common keto-amino tautomer
A Novel Type of Rigid Macrocycle with Bis(3-uracilyl)methane and Hexadiyne Units. The Uracilophane
Synthesis of the first uracilophane 15, constructed from two bis(3- uracilyl)methane units and two hexadiyne bridges connecting uracil N(l)-atoms, is described. The conformational properties of 15 investigated by molecular dynamics revealed low energy conformations with partly or fully stacked phenyl-uracil or phenyl-phenyl pairs
Transcription of gel assemblies of bola type bis(oxalamide)-dicarboxylic acid and -diester gelators into silica nanotubes and ribbons under catalyzed and non-catalyzed conditions
Assemblies of the bola type bis(oxalamide)-dicarboxylic acid and -diester gelators lacking any positive charges or amine groups can be transcribed into silica nanotubes and ribbons by sol-gel polymerizations of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) either in the presence or absence of benzyl amine as solution catalyst
