The reaction of cyclopentanone with cyanoacetylhydrazine gave 2-cyano-2-cyclopentylideneacetohydrazide (1). Treatment of compound 1 with elemental sulphur in the presence of triethylamine afforded 2-amino-5,6-dihydro- -4H-cyclopenta[b]thiophene-3-carbohydrazide (2), which in-turn formed the corresponding intermediate diazonium salt. The latter was coupled with either ethyl cyanoacetate or ethyl...

Novel representatives of the important group of biologically active dibenzosuberone derivatives were prepared: 3,7-dibromo-5-(dimethylaminoethyl- oxyimino)-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepta-1,4-diene (1), 3,7-dibromo-5-(3- dimethylaminopropylidene)-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene (2) and 1,7- dibromo-5-(3-dimethylaminopropylidene)-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo-[a,d]-cycloheptene (3)....

An efficient three-component reaction of dialkyl acetylendicarboxylates and 2-Pyrrolidin in the presence of triphenylphosphine produces dialkyl 2-(2-Pyrrolidin-N-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphanylidene)succinate. These phosphoranes undergo mild intramolecular Wittig reaction to produce dialkyl (E)-2-(4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrol-2-yl)fumarate in excellent yields.

In the title compound, C(11)H(12)N(2)O(2), the dihydro-pyrazole and benzene rings are oriented at a dihedral angle of 68.35 (5)°. The dihydro-pyrazole ring is planar, with a mean deviation from the mean plane of 0.0409 Å. The crystal structure is stabilized by O-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

2-Guanidinobenzimidazole condenses with benzaldehyde in the presence of hydro-chloric acid to form 2-amino-3,4-dihydro-4-phenyl-1,3,5-triazino[1,2-a]benzimidazole, which was isolated as its hydro-chloride, C(15)H(14)N(5) (+)·Cl(-). The positive charge of the cation is formally placed on the double-bonded N atom of the dihydro-triazine ring. The six-membered dihydro-triazine that is fused with t...

1. 7- and 12-Methylbenz[a]anthracene were converted by rat-liver homogenates into the corresponding hydroxymethyl derivatives, products that are probably the 8,9-dihydro-8,9-dihydroxy and the 5,6-dihydro-5,6-dihydroxy derivatives, and a number of phenolic products. 2. Both hydrocarbons were converted into glutathione conjugates; that from 7-methylbenz[a]anthracene was also formed, together with...

The title compound, (Z)-2′-((adamantan-1-yl)thio)-1,1′-dimethyl-2′,3′-dihydro-[2,4′-biimidazolylidene]-4,5,5′(1H,1′H,3H)-trione, was found to be a by-product of the reaction 1,3-dehydroadamantane with 3-methyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one and characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

(E)-5-(Methoxyimino)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[b]azepin-2-one was prepared by a condensation reaction from 3,4-dihydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-2,5-dione and O-methylhydroxylamine. The configuration at the C=N double bond determined X-ray crystallography.

CuX(2)-mediated (X = Cl, Br) halolactonization of monoesters of 1,2-allenyl phosphonic acids is presented. The reaction proceeded smoothly under the mild condition for differently substituted allenic substrates giving the 4-halo-2,5-dihydro[1,2]oxaphosphole 2-oxides in good yields. The Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of these bromides and even chlorides with organic boronic acids under the catal...

A one-pot synthesis ofdimethyl-{3-methyl-2-[(alkoxycarbonyl) anilino]-2,3-dihydro-1Himidazol-1-yl)}-2-butenedioatesanddimethyl-2-[(alkoxycarbonyl)anilino]-2-butenedioates derivatives via reactions between dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate,1-methylimidazoleand N-phenylcarbamates is described. The mild reaction condition, simple mixing of the starting materials and good yields exhibit the synthetic...
