3-Acetoxy-1,4-dibenzyl-3-[1-(2-methoxyethyl)ethenyl]piperazine-2,5-dione (32) and its 2-hydroxyethyl analogue (46), which possess several of the structural features of the antibiotic bicyclomycin, have been synthesized by a route involving construction of the piperazine-2,5-dione ring at a late stage in the reaction sequence. Treatment of ethyl 3-(2-methoxyethyl)-3-methylglycidate with acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid gives ethyl 2-acetoxy-3-(2-methoxyethyl)-3-butenoate (10), which is converted to the corresponding carboxylic acid by ethanolysis, hydrolysis, and reacetylation. This, on conversion to its acid chloride and reaction with N,N′-dibenzylglycinamide, gives 2-acetoxy-N-benzyl-N-(2-benzylamino-2-oxocthyl)-3-(2methoxyethyl)-3-butenamide (21). Compound 21, on hydrolysis and oxidation, gives the corresponding 2-oxo compound, which on treatment with magnesium isopropylcyclohexylamide followed by acetylation yields 32. Demethylation of 21 with alkylthiotrimethylsilanes gives the corresponding 2-hydroxyethyl compound, whose tetrahydropyranyl ether on subjection to the above reaction sequence gives the 2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)ethyl analogue of 32. This, on hydrolysis, gives a 3: 1 mixture of compound 46 and a spiro compound formed by displacement of the acetoxyl group by the hydroxyl oxygen atom of 46.

1,4-Dibenzyl-3-hydroxy-3-[1-(2-methoxyethyl)ethenyl]piperazine-2,5-dione (43), which incorporates several of the structural features of the antibiotic bieyclomycin, has been synthesized via a reaction sequence involving early construction of the piperazine-2,5-dione ring. In model studies 3-isopropylidenepiperazine-2,5-dione was di-N-benzylated and epoxidized to give 4,7-dibenzyl-2,2-dimethyl-1-oxa-4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane-5,8-dione (10). The opening of the epoxide ring of 10 by several reagents was investigated and it was found that treatment with magnesium isopropylcyclohexylamide (MICA) gives 1,4-dibenzyl-3-hydroxy-3-(1-methylethenyl)piperazine-2,5-dione (23). Treatment of ethyl 3-(2-methoxyethyl)-3-methyl-glycidate (28) with p-toluenesulfonic acid followed by hydrogenation and oxidation gives ethyl 5-methoxy-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate, which on reaction with chloroacetamide and sulfuric acid followed by treatment of the resulting enamide with ammonia gives (Z)- and (E)-3-(4-methoxybut-2-ylidene)piperazine-2,5-dione. Di-N-benzylation of these followed by epoxidation gives (Z)- and (E)-4,7-dibenzyl-2-(2-methoxyethyl)-2-methyl-1-oxa-4,7-diazaspiro[2.5]octane-5,8-dione (41 and 42). Treatment of 41 with MICA converts it to compound 43. Chromatography of 43 on silica converts it in part to N-benzyl-N-(2-benzylamino-2-oxoethyl)-3-(2-methoxyethyl)-2-oxo-3-butenamide, which on treatment with MICA regenerates 43.

AbstractThe evaporation of a solution of Au(OH)3 and Na2So4 in conc. sulfuric acid led to yellow single crystals of NaAu(SO4)2 (monoclinic, P21/n, Z = 2, a = 469.1, b = 845.9, c = 831.2 pm, β = 95.7°). Analogous procedures with K2SO4 or Rb2SO4 instead of Na2SO4 yielded single crystals of KAu(SO4)2 (monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, a = 1109.8, b = 724.2, c = 941.1 pm, β = 118.4°) and RbAu(S04)2, respectively, (triclinic, P1̄, Z = 1, a = 423.6, b = 497.5, c = 889.0 pm, a = 76.4°, β = 88.4°, γ = 73.5°). Although the crystal structures of the three sulfates are not isotypic they show similar structural features: The gold atoms are coordinated by four oxygen atoms in a square planar manner. These oxygen atoms belong to four SO42- ions which link the [AUO4] units to infinite chains according to 1∞[Au(SO4)4/ 2]- . These chains are connected via the monovalent cations which show coordination numbers of 6 (Na+), 10 (K+) and 12 (Rb+), respectively.

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 protonation equilibria of four substituted N-methylbenzenesulfonamides, X-MBS: X = 4-MeO (3a), 4-Me (3b), 4-Cl (3c) and 4-NO2 (3d), in aqueous sulfuric acid were studied at 25 °C by UV–vis spectroscopy. As expected, the values for the acidity constants are highly dependent on the electron-donor character of the substituent (the pK BH+ values are −3.5 ± 0.2, −4.2 ± 0.2, −5.2 ± 0.3 and −6.0 ± 0.3 for 3a, 3b, 3c and 3d, respectively). The solvation parameter m* is always higher than 0.5 and points to a decrease in the importance of solvation on the cation stabilization as the electron-donor character of the substituent increases. Hammett plots of the equilibrium constants showed a better correlation with the σ+ substituent parameter than with σ, which indicates that the initial protonation site is the oxygen atom of the sulfonyl group.

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.

A description of the conditions which favor the formation of the acid chloride – dimethyl formamide complex is given. The utility of the complex is illustrated by its application to the synthesis of acyl azides and, in particular, by the selective formation of 3-bromopropionyl azide from the corresponding acid chloride. The complex also results from a carboxylic acid salt and N,N-dimethyl chloroformiminium chloride, and thus provides an alternative method of effecting the direct conversion of a carboxylic acid into the corresponding acid azide.
