The acetoxy nitro diene (21), the C3-epimeric 3,4,6-trinitro-5-nitratocyclohexenes (24) and (25), the 3,6-dinitro-5-nitratocyclohexa-1,3-diene (29), and the 3,6-dinitro-5-acetoxycyclohexa-1,3- diene (32) are identified as probable intermediates in the formation of polynitro cyclohexenyl esters (4)-(13) on reaction of p-cymene with nitrogen dioxide in acetic anhydride; probable reaction pathways are discussed. The X-ray crystal analysis of 4-methyl-1-(1′-methylethy1)-t-5-nitrato-r-3,t-4,c-6-trinitrocyclohexene (24) is reported.

Reactions of the epimeric 4-nitrocyclohexa-2,5-dienyl acetates (10) and (11) with nitrogen dioxide in acetic anhydride give closely similar mixtures of the nitro aromatic compounds (12)-(15), three polynitro nitrate esters (16)-(18), and two polynitro acetates (19) and (20). X-Ray crystal structure determinations are reported for compounds (16)-(18).

3β-Acetoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-28,20β-olide (IIIa) reacts with acetic anhydride in pyridine under very mild conditions affording β-lactone IVa and γ-lactones Va and VIIa as condensation products. On reaction with pyridine, lactones Va and VIIa undergo elimination of acetic acid to give unsaturated lactones VIIIa and IXa, respectively. Similarly, the condensation of 20β,28-epoxy-21,22-dioxo-18α,19βH-ursan-3β-yl acetate (IIIb) with acetic anhydride leads to β-lactone IVb and γ-lactone Vb; the latter on heating with pyridine affords unsaturated lactone VIIIb and 21-methylene-22-ketone Xb. The structure of the obtained compounds was derived using spectral methods, particularly 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy; structure of lactone IVa was confirmed by X-ray diffraction.

Possible structures and the pertinent reaction pathways for the polymetalate ion present in a slightly soluble polymetalate having the analytical formula A2O · 2 MOs have been derived on the basis of theoretical considerations. Structure and kind of combination of the tetrameric units of one of the possibilities are in agreement with the results of X-ray structure analyses. First the previously proposed planar tetrametalate ion [M4O12(OH)4]4--is formed by stepwise aggregation according to an addition mechanism. This species undergoes a rearrangement of the coordination sphere of two of the M atoms and is then subject to a polycondensation resulting in a polytetrametalate chain, [M4O144-]n.

A series of novel hybrid compounds containing benzofuroxan and 2-aminothiazole moieties are synthesized via aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction. Possible reaction pathways have been considered quantum-chemically, which allowed us to suggest the most probable products. The quantum chemical results have been proved by X-ray data on one compound belonging to the synthesized series. It was shown that the introduction of substituents to both the thiazole and amine moieties of the compounds under study strongly influences their UV/Vis spectra. Initial substances and obtained hybrid compounds have been tested in vitro as anticancer agents. Target compounds showed selectivity towards M-HeLa tumor cell lines and were found to be more active than starting benzofuroxan and aminothiazoles. Furthermore, they are considerably less toxic to normal liver cells compared to Тamoxifen. The mechanism of action of the studied compounds can be associated with the induction of apoptosis, which proceeds along the mitochondrial pathway. Thus, new hybrids of benzofuroxan are promising candidates for further development as anticancer agents.

Nitration of the bromophenols (4a) and (5a) give products of nitro-debromination . Reaction of 6-methyl-4-nitro-2-phenylphenol (5c) with nitrogen dioxide gives 2-hydroxy-2-phenylcyclohex-3-enones (8) and (9), and probably stereoisomers (10), (20), (21) and (22). The mode of ormation of these compounds is discussed. X-ray crystal structure determinations are reported for compounds (8) and (9).
