Reaction of phenacyl anthranilate (1) with diethyl (ethoxymethylidene)malonate afforded phenacyl 2-{[2,2-di(ethoxycarbonyl)vinyl]amino}benzoate (2) which on heating in polyphosphoric acid underwent degradation. Thermal cyclization of 2 in diphenyl ether gave phenacyl 3-(ethoxycarbonyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-8-carboxylate (4). The phenacyl group did not cyclize even on prolonged heating at 250 °C. Heating in sulfuric acid resulted in hydrolysis of the ethyl ester under formation of 4-oxo-8-[(phenacyloxy)carbonyl]-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (6). The structure of 4 was confirmed by an independent synthesis.

Treatment of methyl hydrogen decahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,endo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a,8a-dicarboxylate with lead tetraacetate in benzene – acetic acid replaces the carboxyl group by an acetoxy group. Hydrolysis of this product with 25% sulfuric acid at 130 °C forms 8a-hydroxydecahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,endo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a-carboxylic acid 10. The reaction between 10 and benzenesulfonyl chloride in pyridine containing triethylamine at 95 °C produces anti-sesquinorbornene 1 in 34% yield. In the absence of triethylamine 1 is converted to the hydrochloride. The iodohydroperoxide of 1 is converted by silver acetate at 0 °C to the diketone in a luminescent reaction. The 1,2-dioxetane could not be isolated. Decahydro-1,4:5,8-exo,exo-dimethanonaphthalene-4a,8a-dicarboxylic anhydride is converted slowly by methoxide ion in methanol at 150 °C to the monomethyl ester which then undergoes demethylation. The isomeric exo,endo anhydride undergoes reaction readily with methoxide ion at 80 °C.

The sulfuric acid catalyzed acylation of 2-methyl-5-nitroisocarbostyril with carboxylic acid anhydrides gave the corresponding 4-acylated derivatives 3, which underwent reductive cyclization to 2-substituted derivatives of 4-methyl-1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4.3.2.de]isoquinolin-5-one (4). Alkaline hydrolysis of the six-membered lactam in 4 was accompanied by a retro-Mannich reaction to produce 2-substituted indole-4-carboxylic acids in about 40 % overall yield from 3.

The rates of hydrolysis of 22 1-acyl-2-thiohydantoins in aqueous sulfuric acid to give 2-thiohydantoin and a carboxylic acid have been determined. In 0–90% sulfuric acid, hydrolysis takes place by an A-2 mechanism, and the rate reaches a maximum in about 70% acid. In acid more concentrated than about 90%, hydrolysis takes place by an A-1 mechanism, and the rate increases monotonically. Evidence for the two mechanisms comes from Yates r and Bunnett-Olsen [Formula: see text] parameters; from entropies of activation; from pσ and pσ+ relations; and from steric effects.

The title diester , Ph2C=C=C=C( COOEt )2 (2), has been prepared by a Wittig reaction between (2-bromo-3,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-yl) triphenylphosphonium bromide and diethyl 2-oxopropane-1,3-dioate ( mesoxalic ester). The diester (2) undergoes cyclization reactions in concentrated sulfuric acid to give diethyl 2-(3'-phenyl-1H-inden-1'-y1idene)propane-l,3-dioate (4) and triethyl 3-oxo-3',9-diphenyl-2,3-dihydrospiro[lH-fluorene-1,l'-[1H]indene]-2,2,4-tricarboxylate (6), the structure of which was determined by X-ray crystallography. The title diester (2)adds cyclopentadiene across the 2,3-C=C bond to give diethyl 3-(2',2'-diphenylethenylidene)bicyclo[2.2.l]hept-5-ene-2,2-dicarboxylate (10). Alkaline hydrolysis of diester (10) gives an unstable colourless acid and a stable yellow crypto acid shown by X-ray crystallography to be 3-(2',2'-diphenylethenyl)bicyclo[2.2.l]hepta-2,5-diene-2-carboxylic acid (12). Attempts to convert diesters (2) and acid (12) into derivatives suitable for pyrolytic generation of Ph2C=C=C=C=C=O failed; The mono-acid chloride (14) yielded a small phenylazulene fraction on pyrolysis at 780-800°/0.02 mm.

AbstractSilica sulfuric acid was found to be an efficient, recoverable, reusable and environment-friendly catalyst for the fast hydrolysis of various carboxylic acid esters in high conversions and selectivities under microwave irradiation conditions. This protocol has the advantages of no corrosion, no environmental pollution, high reaction rate, high yield, and simple work-up procedure.

Carba analogs of normuramic acid, i.e., 3-(benzyl 2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glucopyranosid-3-yl)propanoic acid derivatives (nitrile or esters) 3a-3c were prepared by addition of radicals generated from benzyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-3-O-[(methylsulfanyl)thiocarbonyl]- (2a) or -3-O-(phenoxythiocarbonyl)-α-D-glucopyranoside (2b) with Bu3SnH to acrylonitrile or acryl esters. Alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl ester 3c afforded 3-(benzyl 2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-4,6-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glucopyranosid-3-yl)propanoic acid (5). Coupling of acid 5 with L-2-aminobutanoyl-D-isoglutamine benzyl ester trifluoroacetate and subsequent deprotection of the intermediate 6 furnished N-[3-(2-acetamido-2,3-dideoxy-α-D-glucopyranosid-3-yl)propanoyl]-L-2-aminobutanoyl-D-isoglutamine (7).
