2-Methoxy-5-methylbenzoquinone undergoes reaction with sodium azide in sulfuric acid to give (a) 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-1H-azepin-2,5-dione, which undergoes ring contraction with base to give 5-methyl-4-pyridone-2-carboxylic acid; (b) 4-methoxy-7-methyl-1H-azepin-2,5-dione, which reacts with phosphorus oxychloride to give methyl 2-chloro-6-methylpyridine-4-carboxylate, not 2-chloro-4-methoxy-7-methyl-5H-azepin-5-one; (c) 7-methoxy-4-methyl-1H-azepin-2,5-dione. The reactions of these compounds are discussed and the evidence for their structures is presented.

Schmidt reaction (sodium azide/sulfuric acid) of 1,5- and of 1,8-dichloroanthraquinones gives, in each case, both of the theoretically possible lactams (2,3,5,6-dibenzoazepin-4,7-diones). Two of the four theoretically possible lactams have been identified from Schmidt reaction of 1- and 2-chloroanthraquinones respectively. Methods used include: (a) preferential hydrolysis of one lactam and identification of the isomeric aminoanthraquinone formed on cyclodehydration of the resulting amino acid; (b) identification of the isomeric aminoanthraquinone(s) formed on direct treatment of a lactam (or mixture of lactams) by sulfuric acid; (c) cleavage by potassium tert-butoxide of the amino acid formed by preferential hydrolysis of one lactam and identification of the resulting benzoic acid as its methyl ester.

This review summarizes the synthesis, reactions, and biological activities of tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline derivatives. These derivatives were synthesized by several methods such as i) from the reaction of 2-chloroquinoline with sodium azide ii) from diazotization 2-hydrazinylquinoline derivatives, and iii) from intramolecular cyclocondensation of 2-azidoarylidenes. Also, the chemical reactions and pharmacological activities of some tetrazoloquinolines such as tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline-4-carbaldehyde, 5-chlorotetrazolo[ 1,5-a]quinoline, 4-(chloromethyl)tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline, tetrazolo[1,5- a]quinoline-4-carboxylic acid, and 5-azidotetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline were discussed.

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.

For the first time, orthogonally substituted azole-carboxylate adamantane ligands were synthesized and used for preparation of coordination polymers. The angle-shaped ligands were prepared by the reaction of 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid and azoles (1H-1,2,4-triazole, 3-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole, 3,5-dimethyl-1H-1,2,4-triazole, 1H-tetrazole, 5-methyl-1H-tetrazole) in concentrated sulfuric acid. Variation of the solvent and substituents in azole rings allowed to prepare both 1D and 2D copper(II) and nickel(II) coordination polymers, [Cu2(trzadc)4(H2O)0.7]∙DMF∙0.3H2O, [Cu(trzadc)2(MeOH)]∙MeOH, [Ni(trzadc)2(MeOH)2] and [Cu2(mtrzadc)3(MeOH)]+NO3– (trzadc-3-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-adamantane-1-carboxylic acid; mtrzadc-3-(3-methyl-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-adamantane-1-carboxylic acid) which were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Complex [Cu(trzadc)2(MeOH)]∙MeOH was shown to act as a catalyst in the Chan-Evans-Lam arylation reaction.
