TL;DR: In this article, 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene with glyoxal and formaldehyde in water solutions at pH 7-8 gave rise to 2-(dinitromethylene)imidazolidine-4,5-diol and 1, 1diaminofurazan respectively.
Abstract: Condensation of 1,1-diamino-2,2-dinitroethylene with glyoxal and formaldehyde in water solutions at pH 7–8 gave rise to 2-(dinitromethylene)imidazolidine-4,5-diol and 1,1-diamino-N,N′-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2-dinitroethylene respectively. Condensation products of 2-(dinitromethylene)imidazolidine-4,5-diol with acetonitrile, benzonitrile, urethane, 3,4-diaminofurazan were isolated. The reaction of 4,5-diacetamido-2-(dinitromethylene) imidazolidine sulfate with water in acetonitrile led to the formation of 2-(dinitromethylene)-5-methyl-1,2,3,3a,4,6a-hexahydroimidazo[4,5-d]imidazole. The dehydration of 2-(dinitromethylene)imidazolidine-4,5-diol in a system H2SO4-AcOH provided 2-(dinitromethylene)-2,3-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-ol. 1,1-Diamino-N,N′-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2-dinitroethylene in sulfuric acid was converted into 4-(dinitromethylene)-1,3,5-oxadiazinane.

Abstract: A simple and effective synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one and 3,4-dihydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione derivatives has been developed on the basis of three-component condensation of substituted aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes, methyl acetoacetate, and urea or thiourea in the presence of 10% of an acidic task-specific ionic liquid ([C4mim][HSO4]) as catalyst under microwave irradiation in the absence of a solvent. The proposed procedure ensures short reaction times (4.4–8 min) and good yields after purification by recrystallization.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of new hetarylazo indole dyes were synthesized by azo coupling of 2-phenyl-, 2-methyl-, and 1-methyl-1phenyl-1H-indole with diazonium salts.
Abstract: A series of new hetarylazo indole dyes were synthesized by azo coupling of 2-phenyl-, 2-methyl-, and 1-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-indole with diazonium salts derived from 5-methylsulfanyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine, 1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-amine, 5-methylisoxazol-3-amine, and 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol. The dyes were characterized by the IR spectra, electronic absorption spectra in the UV and visible regions, and 1H NMR and mass spectra. The effects of solvent nature, acidity of the medium, temperature, and concentration on the electronic absorption spectra in the visible region and the dependence of the color of the dyes on the nature of heterocyclic fragment were examined.

TL;DR: In this paper, the X-ray diffraction and IR data showed that 2-morpholino(pyrrolidin-1-yl)methylidene-3-fluoroalkyl-3 -oxopropionates exist as Z isomers both in the crystalline state and in solution.
Abstract: Condensation of ethyl 3-polyfluoroalkyl-3-oxopropionates with excess triethyl orthoformate gave ethyl 3-polyfluoroalkyl-2-ethoxymethylidene-3-oxopropionates which reacted with primary aliphatic, aromatic, and heterocyclic amines to form ethyl 2-alkyl(aryl, hetaryl)aminomethylidene-3-polyfluoroalkyl-3-oxopropionates. According to the X-ray diffraction and IR data, the latter exist in the crystalline state as the corresponding E isomers, while in solution (NMR data), as mixtures of Z and E isomers. Condensation of ethyl 2-ethoxymethylidene-3-oxopropionates with secondary heterocyclic amines (morpholine and pyrrolidine) led to the formation of 2-morpholino(pyrrolidin-1-yl)methylidene-3-fluoroalkyl-3-oxopropionates which were shown to exist as Z isomers both in the crystalline state and in solution.

TL;DR: In this paper, a chiral pincer ligand having CH=N moieties was synthesized by condensation of 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dicarbaldehyde with l-methionine and l-histidine methyl esters.
Abstract: New chiral pincer ligands having CH=N moieties were synthesized by condensation of 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dicarbaldehyde with l-methionine and l-histidine methyl esters. Their reduction under mild conditions (NaBH4, −30°C) gave the corresponding amine ligands in high yields. An improved procedure for the preparation of 1H-pyrrole-2,5-dicarbaldehyde was proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, N-Arylmethylene and N-benzhydrylideneamines react with fluorocarbene yielding fluoro-substituted azomethine ylides that undergo 1,3-π-cyclization into aziridines.
Abstract: N-Arylmethylene and N-benzhydrylideneamines react with fluorocarbene yielding fluoro-substituted azomethine ylides that undergo 1,3-π-cyclization into aziridines. Generation of fluoroylides in the presence of dipolarophiles (dimethyl maleate or dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate) led to the reaction of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition resulting in substituted 2-pyrrolines or pyrroles. 2-Fluoroaziridines, products of N-alkyl-N-benzhydrylideneamines 1,3-π-cyclization, in the presence of acid catalysts suffer isomerization into α-fluoroimines and 1,3-disubstituted indoles.

Abstract: 1,3-Diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin in organic solvents successfully iodinates alkylbenzenes, aromatic amines, and phenyl ethers.

Abstract: New approaches have been proposed for the synthesis of compounds containing two bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methane fragments. Nucleophilic replacement of the halogen atoms in appropriate tetrabromo derivatives by pyrazoles in the superbasic system KOH-DMSO gave ditopic chelating ligands: 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethane, 1,4-bis[bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene, and 1,4-bis[bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene. 1,4-Bis[bis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene was also synthesized by reaction of 1H-pyrazole with terephthalaldehyde in the presence of thionyl chloride. 1,1,2,2-Tetrakis(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)ethane was converted into the corresponding tetraiodo and tetranitro derivatives.

TL;DR: In this article, 3,4,6-trisubstituted pyridazines were synthesized from fluoroalkyl-containing diazo keto esters in three steps along two different reaction sequences.
Abstract: 3,4,6-Trisubstituted pyridazines were synthesized from fluoroalkyl-containing diazo keto esters in three steps along two different reaction sequences: (1) Wittig, Staudinger, and diaza-Wittig and (2) Staudinger, Wittig, and diaza-Wittig. According to the first of these with the initial Wittig reaction, the yield of the target 4-fluoroalkyl-substituted pyridazines is almost twice as large as in the reaction sequence involving the corresponding N-phosphanylidene derivatives as intermediates. In both sequences, the final steps (synthesis of vinylphosphazenes and the subsequent diaza-Wittig reaction) occurred as a tandem process, and intermediate vinylphosphazenes could not be isolated. Non-fluorinated diazo keto esters and the respective phosphazenes failed to react with alkoxycarbonylmethylidene(triphenyl)phosphoranes under the same conditions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that 1,3-Diacetoxytetramethyldisiloxane is formed in the reaction of acyl iodide with dimethoxy(dimethyl)silane.
Abstract: Reactions of acyl iodides RCOI (R = Me, Ph) with organosilicon compounds involve cleavage of the Si-O-C and Si-O-Si fragments. Acetyl iodide reacts with alkyl(alkoxy)silanes with evolution of heat, and cleavage of the Si-O bond results in the formation of oligo-or polysiloxanes, alkyl iodides, and alkyl acetates. 1,3-Diacetoxytetramethyldisiloxane is formed in the reaction of acetyl iodide with dimethoxy(dimethyl)silane. Acyl iodides readily react with 1-ethoxysilatrane to give 1-acyloxysilatranes as a result of cleavage of the C-O bond. The reaction of acetyl iodide with hexaethyldisiloxane yields triethylsilyl acetate and triethyliodosilane, while in the reaction with octamethyltrisiloxane iodo(trimethyl)silane and dimethyl(trimethylsiloxy)silyl acetate are obtained.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, 4-Aryl(alkyl)iminomethyl, 5-hydroxy-6-nitro-2,3-diphenyl-1-benzofuran-4-carbaldehyde imine having a benzo-15-crown-5 fragment on the nitrogen atom is shown to exist in solution as equilibrium mixtures of benzoid and quinoid tautomers.
Abstract: 4-Aryl(alkyl)iminomethyl-5-hydroxy-and 4-aryl(alkyl)iminomethyl-5-hydroxy-6-nitro-2,3-diphenyl-1-benzofurans were synthesized and were shown to exist in solution as equilibrium mixtures of benzoid and quinoid tautomers. The fraction of the quinoid form increases with rise in the solvent polarity and in going from N-aryl to N-alkyl derivatives; introduction of an electron-acceptor substituent (nitro group) into the 6-position of the benzofuran system also favors formation of the quinoid tautomer. Complex formation of alkali and alkaline-earth metal cations with the 5-hydroxy-6-nitro-2,3-diphenyl-1-benzofuran-4-carbaldehyde imine having a benzo-15-crown-5 fragment on the nitrogen atom is accompanied by specific changes in the luminescence spectrum and in the state of tautomeric equilibrium, so that this system may be regarded as tautomeric fluorogenic chemosensor for metal cations.
