Photochemistry of 1-allyl-4-aryltetrazolones in solution; structural effects on photoproduct selectivity.

چکیده
The photochemistry of tetrazolones derived from the carbocyclic allylic alcohols cyclohex-2-enol and 3-methylcyclohex-2-enol and from the natural terpene alcohol nerol was investigated in solution with the aim of assessing the effect of solvent and of structural constraints imposed by bulky allylic moieties on photoproduct selectivity and stability. Photolysis of tetrazolones derived from nerol and cyclohex-2-enol afforded the corresponding pyrimidinones as major products through a pathway that appears to be similar to that proposed for other 1-allyl-4-phenyl-1,4-dihydro-5H-tetrazol-5-ones derived from acyclic and unhindered allylic alcohols previously investigated but photolysis of the tetrazolone derived from the bulkier 3-methylcyclohex-2-enol 4c leads to formation of a benzimidazolone, indicating that, in this case, cyclization of the biradical formed upon extrusion of N(2) involves the phenyl substituent and not the allylic moiety. Theoretical calculations (DFT(B3LYP)/3-21G*) were conducted to support the interpretation of the experimental results and mechanistic proposals. Laser flash photolysis experiments were conducted with the aim of clarifying the nature of the intermediate involved in the primary photocleavage process.

UV-induced photochemistry of matrix-isolated 1-phenyl-4-allyl-tetrazolone.
The photochemistry and molecular structure of 1-phenyl-4-allyl-tetrazolone (PAT) was studied by FT-IR matrix isolation spectroscopy and DFT(B3LYP)/6-311++G(d,p) calculations. The spectrum of matrix-isolated PAT monomers agrees well with the sum spectrum of three conformers predicted theoretically. UV irradiation (lambda > 235 nm) of matrix-isolated PAT induces three types of photofragmentation:...

In contrast to the known thermal, exclusively [3,3], Oto Nrearrangement of allyl groups in phenyltetrazoles (1, Scheme 1), the comparable migration of the allyl group in pseudosaccharyl ethers (3; Scheme 2) has been shown to proceed through both [1,3]and [3,3]-mechanisms, 4, 5; for the pseudosaccharyl derivative of the natural product myrtenol (6; Scheme 3) only the product 7 of a [1,3]-shift h...

Direct irradiation of optically-pure axially-chiral α-substituted acrylanilides in the crystalline state leads to 3,4-dihydro-2-quinolin-2-one photoproduct with an enantiomeric ratio of 85 : 15 while a racemic mixture of photoproduct is observed in solution.

The DNA cis-syn cyclobutane photoproduct formed between two adjacent cytosine residues is highly mutagenic and responsible for the tandem CC to TT transition. However, its instability has prevented its in vitro study, so far. With a view to prepare oligodeoxynucleotides containing the CC cyclobutane lesion, we have synthesized in good yield a ditetrazolouracil cyclobutane dinucleotide photoprod...
متن کاملPhoto-Fries rearrangement of aryl acetamides: regioselectivity induced by the aqueous micellar green environment.
Photochemical reactions tend to give more than one photoproduct. However, such a reaction can be a powerful synthetic tool when it is possible to conduct it in regioselective conditions yielding a single photoproduct. Water-surfactant solutions as reaction media can be considered as an approach in this context because they show products with different features than those from isotropic solution...
