چکیده

Abstract The -lactams and the related -sultams are attractive targets for synthesis because of their central importance in antibiotics such as the penicillins. These heterocycles are of further interest because of their potential as inhibitors of the serine protease class of enzymes, believed to be responsible for diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and cystic fibrosis. This thesis will describe the synthesis of the 4-vinyl beta lactams (A), thiation of these compounds using Lawesson’s reagent to yield thio lactams (B) and subsequent conversion into the corresponding 1-azetine (C) using Meerwein’s reagent.The -lactams and the related -sultams are attractive targets for synthesis because of their central importance in antibiotics such as the penicillins.

1-Azetines, 1,2-Thiazetin-1,1-dioxides and Isothiazol-1,1-dioxides as Building Blocks in Heterocyclic Synthesis: the Attempted Synthesis of Bicyclic -Sultams

Abstract This thesis is concerned with the synthesis of -sultams and the development of new routes for the synthesis of bicyclic versions of these molecules as potential anti-bacterials. The synthesis of 1-azetines, 1,2-thiazetin-1,1-dioxides and isothiazol-1,1-dioxides as precursors of bicyclic heterocycles is described. 1-Azetines were synthesised from azetidin-2-ones prepared via the [2+2] c...

An expeditious iodine-catalyzed synthesis of 3-pyrrole-substituted 2-azetidinones.

2-Azetidinones and pyrroles are two highly important classes of molecules in organic and medicinal chemistry. A green and practical method for the synthesis of 3-pyrrole-substituted 2-azetidinones using catalytic amounts of molecular iodine under microwave irradiation has been developed. Following this method, a series of 3-pyrrole- substituted 2-azetidinones have been synthesized with a variet...

Pyridines from azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-en-4-ones through a proposed azacyclopentadienone.

Pyridines have been formed by heating azabicyclo[3.2.0]hept-2-en-4-ones in toluene. The generation of a 3-azacyclopentadienone intermediate via a [2 + 2]-cycloreversion is proposed as the key step. A Diels-Alder reaction of a styrene, extrusion of carbon monoxide, and loss of hydrogen then gives the pyridine. The process parallels the well-known synthesis of benzenes from cyclopentadienones. Th...

The acid-mediated ring opening reactions of α-aryl-lactams.

4-Aryl-azetidin-2-ones (β-lactams) undergo ring opening with triflic acid to give cinnamamides which, in benzene, react further to give 3-aryl-3-phenyl-propionamides. Prolonged reaction times in benzene give 3,3-diphenyl-propionamide via an aryl/phenyl exchange. Lactams of ring size 7 and higher also ring open, but only 7- and 8-membered rings give pure diphenylalkylamides. AlCl(3) only ring op...

Design, Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 5-Oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8 Hexahydroquinoline Derivatives as Selective Cyclooxygenase-2 Inhibitors

A group of regioisomeric 5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8 hexahydroquinoline derivatives possessing a COX-2 SO2Me pharmacophore at the para position of the C-2 or C-4 phenyl ring, in conjunction with a C-4 or C-2 phenyl (4-H) or substituted-phenyl ring (4-F,4-Cl,4-Br,4-OMe,4-Me, 4-NO2), were designed for evaluation as selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors. These target 5-oxo-1,4,5,6,7,8 hexahydroquino...
