TL;DR: A successful interpretation of the complex manner by which the GC retention indexes of methylalkanes produced by insects are related to chemical structure was achieved using the quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) method.
Abstract: A successful interpretation of the complex manner by which the GC retention indexes of methylalkanes produced by insects are related to chemical structure was achieved using the quantitative structure−property relationship (QSPR) method. A general QSPR model including mainly topological descriptors was obtained for 178 data points. The error of the model is similar to the experimental error. The model was supported by (i) leave-one-out cross validation and (ii) division into three sets and prediction of each set from the other two. As a further test of the utility of the model, retention indexes were successfully predicted for an external set of 30 methyl-branched hydrocarbons not involved in the deduction of the correction equation from the main data set. General trends of the structural variation of compounds in any given range of retention index are discussed. The average error was 4.6 overall and 4.3 for the 165 compounds remaining after leaving out small monomethyl alkanes.

TL;DR: 2-Aminopyridines 1a-c and 1-aminoisoquinoline with 1-chloromethylbenzotriazole give 2-amino-1-[alpha-benzol-1-ylmethyl]pyridinium chlorides + chloride 12, respectively, which enable imidazolo[2, 1-a]isoquinolines 13a,b in good yields.

TL;DR: 1-Phenyl-5-(benzotriazol-1-yl)hexahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]ĭmidazoles and 1-phenyl- 5-substituted-octahydROimidazo[ 1, 2-a], while the configurations and conformations of 28a-e, 32, 33a,b, and 34 were elucidated.
Abstract: 1-Phenyl-5-(benzotriazol-1-yl)hexahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]ĭmidazole (18) and 1-phenyl-5-benzotriazolyloctahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (27) were readily prepared from succindialdehyde or glutaraldehyde, benzotriazole, and N-phenylethylenediamine. Synthons 18 and 27 reacted with Grignard reagents, allylsilanes, silyl ethers, and triethyl phosphite to produce 1-phenyl-5-substituted-hexahydro-1H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]ĭmidazoles 20a-f, 22, 24a,b, and 25 and 1-phenyl-5-substituted-octahydroimidazo[1, 2-a]pyridines 28a-e, 32, 33a,b, and 34 in good to excellent yields. The configurations of 20, 22, 24, and 25 were determined to be cis isomers by NOE experiment, while the configurations and conformations of 28a-e, 32, 33a,b, and 34 were elucidated by (1)H-(1)H COSY and (1)H-(13)C COSY.

TL;DR: In this paper, direct O-alkylation of 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde (1) with alkyl bromides or iodides gave nine 2-alkoxy-5 methoxy-benzaldehydes 2a-i in high yields, six of which were novel compounds.
Abstract: Direct O-alkylation of 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzaldehyde (1) with alkyl bromides or iodides gave nine 2-alkoxy-5-methoxybenzaldehydes 2a-i in high yields, six of which are novel compounds. Treatment of 2-ethoxy-5-bromobenzaldehydes (3) with n-BuLi, morpholine and nitrobenzene afforded 2-ethoxy-5-hydroxybenzaldehyde (4), which easily underwent Oalkylation to furnish 2-ethoxy-5-alkoxybenzaldehydes 5a-b in total moderate yields.

TL;DR: In this article, the utility of α-benzotriazolylenamines as stable alternatives to α-haloenamines was demonstrated by the successful reaction of N-(1-(2H-1,2,3,benzOTriazol-2-yl)-2-methylprop-1- enyl)-N-methylaniline (5a) with phenylethynylzinc chloride to form N-methyl-N-(2methyl-n-(2- phenylethsynyl)-1-propenyl)anil
Abstract: Synthetic routes to and utility of α-benzotriazolylenamines have been explored. α- Benzotriazolylenamines 3a-g, 4a-f and 5a,b were successfully synthesized (i) from N-(trans- buten-1-yl)-N-methylaniline (2) by reaction with 1-chloro-1H-1,2,3-benzotriazole, followed by base induced elimination of HCl and (ii) from amides 1a-g using benzotriazole, POCl3 and NEt3 in CH3CN. The utility of 3a-g, 4a-f and 5a,b as stable alternatives to α-haloenamines was demonstrated by the successful reaction of N-(1-(2H-1,2,3-benzotriazol-2-yl)-2-methylprop-1- enyl)-N-methylaniline (5a) with phenylethynylzinc chloride to form N-methyl-N-(2-methyl-1-(2- phenylethynyl)-1-propenyl)aniline (7).
