- Kinetics of the alkaline hydrolysis of fenuron in aqueous and micellar media
-
The kinetics of the hydrolysis of fenuron in sodium hydroxide has been investigated spectrometrically in an aqueous medium and in cationic micelles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) medium. The reaction follows first-order kinetics with respect to [fenuron] in both the aqueous and micellar media. The rate of hydrolysis increases with the increase in [NaOH] in the lower concentration range but shows a leveling behavior at higher concentrations. The reaction followed the rate equation, 1/kobs = 1/k + 1/(kK|OH -]), where kobs is the observed rate constant, k is rate constant in aqueous medium, and K is the equilibrium constant for the formation of hydroxide addition product. The cationic CTAB micelles enhanced the rate of hydrolytic reaction. In both aqueous and micellar pseudophases, the hydrolysis of fenuron presumably occurs via an addition-elimination mechanism in which an intermediate hydroxide addition complex is formed. The added salts decrease the rate of reaction.

- Merging C-H activation and alkene difunctionalization at room temperature: A palladium-catalyzed divergent synthesis of indoles and indolines
-
A palladium-catalyzed 1,2-carboamination through C-H activation at room temperature is reported for the synthesis of 2-arylindoles, and indolines from readily available, inexpensive aryl ureas and vinyl arenes. The reaction initiates with a urea-directed electrophilic ortho palladation, alkene insertion, and ?2-hydride elimination sequences to provide the Fujiwara-Moritani arylation product. Subsequently, aza-Wacker cyclization, and ?2-hydride elimination provide the 2-arylindoles in high yields. Intercepting the common -alkyl-Pd intermediate, corresponding indolines are also achieved. The indoline formation is attributed to the generation of stabilized, cationic -benzyl-Pd species to suppress ?2-hydride elimination.

A Pd-catalyzed intermolecular 1,2-carboamination route to indolines from N-aryl ureas and 1,3-dienes that proceeds under mild conditions in relatively nonacidic media, is presented. The in situ generation, or preformation, of a palladium tosylate emerges as a key parameter in gaining the requisite reactivity for the C-H insertion/carbopalladation/nucleophilic displacement process.

- Hydroamination of carbodiimides, isocyanates, and isothiocyanates by a bis(phosphinoselenoic amide) supported titanium(IV) complex
-
The hydroamination of heterocumulenes such as carbodiimides, isocyanates, and isothiocyanates by a bis(phosphinoselenoic amide) supported titanium(iv) complex as a precatalyst is reported here. The titanium(iv) complex [{Ph2P(Se)NCH2CH2NPPh2(Se)}Ti(NMe2)2] (1) was synthesised by the reaction of tetrakis-(dimethylamido)titanium(iv) [Ti(NMe2)4] with [{Ph2P(Se)NHCH2CH2NHPPh2(Se)}] in toluene at ambient temperature. Titanium complex 1 proved to be a competent pre-catalyst for the addition of an amine N-H bond to carbodiimides, isocyanates, and isothiocyanates. The reaction scope was expanded to reactions of aliphatic and aromatic amines with phenylisocyanates and phenylisothiocyanates in toluene solvents proceeding rapidly at room temperature with 5 mol% catalyst loadings to yield the corresponding urea and thio-urea derivatives up to 99%. However, ambient temperature was needed for hydroamination of 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The amine addition reactions with isocyanates showed first order kinetics with respect to catalyst 1 as well as substrates. The most plausible mechanism for the hydroamination reaction was established by isolating 1,1-dimethylphenyl urea as a side product.

- Facile dehalogenation of halogenated anilines and their derivatives using Al-Ni alloy in alkaline aqueous solution
-
This article describes the simple hydrodehalogenation of halogenated anilines and their derivatives by the action of Raney aluminium-nickel alloy in aqueous alkaline solution at room temperature. The reaction course was monitored by means of 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and GC-MS spectra. The effect of Al and Ni and the nature and quantity of the base for effective hydrodehalogenation were studied. The possibility of lowering Al content more than 500 times and Ni content more than 10 times in the filtered mother liquor by a dehalogenation procedure was tested using precipitation. The reduction method described was satisfactorily proved for dehalogenation of polyhalogenated anilines in the multiphase dimethoxymethane/aqueous NaOH/Al-Ni reaction mixture. Dehalogenation under multi-phase conditions was demonstrated for the preparation of ortho-alkylated anilines from simply available 2-substituted-4-chloroanilines. Versita Sp. z o.o.

- Stabilization of Azapeptides by Namide···H-NamideHydrogen Bonds
-
An unusual Namide···H-Namide hydrogen bond (HB) was previously proposed to stabilize the azapeptide β-Turns. Herein we provide experimental evidence for the Namide···H-Namide HB and show that this HB endows a stabilization of 1-3 kcal·mol-1 and enforces the trans-cis-Trans (t-c-T) and cis-cis-Trans (c-c-T) amide bond conformations in azapeptides and N-methyl-Azapeptides, respectively. Our results indicate that these Namide···H-Namide HBs can have stabilizing contributions even in short azapeptides that cannot fold to form β-Turns.

-
A palladium-catalyzed domino method for the direct synthesis of carbamates and ureas has been developed by using readily available and economical starting materials (aryl halide, carbon monoxide, sodium azide, amines and alcohols) in a one-pot approach. The domino process underwent carbonylation, Curtius rearrangement, and nucleophilic addition. This protocol provides a step-economical and highly efficient reaction to access the wide range of valuable carbamates, symmetrical and unsymmetrical ureas with high yields under remarkable mild reaction conditions that are important factors in pharmaceutical science, biochemistry and agricultural industries. Furthermore, the magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst (Fe3O4?SiO2/Pd(II)) can be conveniently and swiftly recycled using external magnet and reused at least for seven times without noticeable loss of its catalytic activity.

- Cationic Pd(II)-catalyzed C-H activation/cross-coupling reactions at room temperature: Synthetic and mechanistic studies
-
Cationic palladium(II) complexes have been found to be highly reactive towards aromatic C-H activation of arylureas at room temperature. A commercially available catalyst [Pd(MeCN)4](BF4)2 or a nitrile-free cationic palladium(II) complex generated in situ from the reaction of Pd(OAc)2 and HBF4, effectively catalyzes C-H activation/cross-coupling reactions between aryl iodides, arylboronic acids and acrylates under milder conditions than those previously reported. The nature of the directing group was found to be critical for achieving room temperature conditions, with the urea moiety the most effective in promoting facile coupling reactions at an ortho C-H position. This methodology has been utilized in a streamlined and efficient synthesis of boscalid, an agent produced on the kiloton scale annually and used to control a range of plant pathogens in broadacre and horticultural crops. Mechanistic investigations led to a proposed catalytic cycle involving three steps: (1) C-H activation to generate a cationic palladacycle; (2) reaction of the cationic palladacycle with an aryl iodide, arylboronic acid or acrylate, and (3) regeneration of the active cationic palladium catalyst. The reaction between a cationic palladium(II) complex and arylurea allowed the formation and isolation of the corresponding palladacycle intermediate, characterized by X-ray analysis. Roles of various additives in the stepwise process have also been studied.

The composition of these mixtures depends on the solvent and the reaction temperature. Similar results are obtained, when a zinc'copper couple is used instead of magnesium.

The method is well suited to incorporate any isotope of carbon, and is especially useful for positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers for in vivo imaging. This is demonstrated by using the method to make [carbonyl-11C]-6-hydroxy-[1,1′- biphenyl]-3-yl cyclohexylcarbamate which is a novel radiotracer for PET imaging of fatty acid amide hydrolase.

- Intramolecular hydrogen bonding in medicinal chemistry
-
The formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds has a very pronounced effect on molecular structure and properties. We study both aspects in detail with the aim of enabling a more rational use of this class of interactions in medicinal chemistry. On the basis of exhaustive searches in crystal structure databases, we derive propensities for intramolecular hydrogen bond formation of five- to eight-membered ring systems of relevance in drug discovery. A number of motifs, several of which are clearly underutilized in drug discovery, are analyzed in more detail by comparing small molecule and protein-ligand X-ray structures. To investigate effects on physicochemical properties, sets of closely related structures with and without the ability to form intramolecular hydrogen bonds were designed, synthesized, and characterized with respect to membrane permeability, water solubility, and lipophilicity. We find that changes in these properties depend on a subtle balance between the strength of the hydrogen bond interaction, geometry of the newly formed ring system, and the relative energies of the open and closed conformations in polar and unpolar environments. A number of general guidelines for medicinal chemists emerge from this study

This report focuses on epoxy-dicyandiamide (DICY) curing system accelerated by N-aryl-N′,N′-dialkyl urea, aiming at clarifying the accelerating mechanism and the relationship between accelerating effect and molecular structure of the accelerators. Nine N-aryl-N′,N′-dialkyl ureas were synthesized and investigated with measurements of differential scanning calorimetry, thermo gravimetric/differential thermal analysis and NMR spectroscopy. The results revealed that the ureas released the corresponding secondary amines by the thermal dissociation in the presence of epoxide, which led to the formation of tertiary amines that catalyze the addition reaction of DICY to epoxide. Moreover, a tendency that the ureas able to release more compact amines exhibited higher acceleration effects was discovered.

A new, general method for the preparation of N,N-di-methyl-N′- arylureas using S,S-dimethyl dithiocarbonate as a phosgene substitute is reported. The method has been set up according to four procedures, all including three steps: (1) reaction of S,S-di- methyl dithiocarbonate with dimethylamine to give S-methyl N,N-dimethylthiocarbamate; (2) halogenation with various halogenating reagents (chlorine, methanesulfenyl chloride, bromine, and meth-anesulfenyl bromide) to give N,N-dimethylcarbamoyl chloride or bromide; (3) in situ reaction with primary arylamines. All the target products were obtained in high yields (85-98%; 16 reactions, average yield 93%) and with high purity. Also noteworthy is the recovery of byproducts of industrial interest, namely methanethiol and dimethyl disulfide, with complete exploitation of the reagent S,S- dimethyl dithiocarbonate.

A new carbamoylation of tertiary amines is reported. This rare C - H transformation features the direct generation of α-aminoalkyl radicals from tertiary amines, followed by the addition of the resultant nucleophilic radicals to isocyanates, enabling unique access to N,N-dialkylated amino acid derivatives. The authors put forward a mechanistic proposal that is based on the isolation of borinamides produced by capturing nitrogen radical intermediates with Et3B. The present transformation provides a novel one-step process for producing mepivacaine, a clinically important local anesthetic, from readily available materials.

- Potential of gas chromatography-orthogonal acceleration time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-oaTOFMS) in flavor research
-
Gas chromatography-orthogonal acceleration time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-oaTOFMS) is an emerging technique offering a straightforward access to a resolving power up to 7000. This paper deals with the use of GC-oaTOFMS to identify the flavor components of a complex seafood flavor extract and to quantify furanones formed in model Maillard reactions. A seafood extract was selected as a representative example for complex food flavors and was previously analyzed using GC-quadrupole MS, leaving several molecules unidentified. GC-oaTOFMS analysis was focused on these unknowns to evaluate its potential in flavor research, particularly for determining exact masses, N-Methyldithiodimethylamine, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, and tetrahydro-2,4-dimethyl-4H-pyrrolo- [2,1-d]-1,3,5-dithiazine were successfully identified on the basis of the precise mass determination of their molecular ions and their major fragments. A second set of experiments was performed to test the capabilities of the GC-oaTOFMS for quantification. Calibration curves were found to be linear over a dynamic range of 103 for the quantification of furanones. The quantitative data obtained using GC-oaTOFMS confirmed earlier results that the formation of 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone was favored in the xylose/glycine model reaction and 2(or 5) -ethyl-4-hydroxy-5(or2)-methyl-3(2H)-furanone in the xylose/alanine model reaction. It was concluded that GC-oaTOFMS may become a powerful analytical tool for the flavor chemist for both identification and quantification purposes, the latter in particular when combined with stable isotope dilution assay.

- Phenylureas. Part 1. Mechanism of the basic hydrolysis of phenylureas
-
The mechanism of the hydrolytic decomposition of phenylureas in basic media in the pH range 12 to 14 is investigated. In this pH range a levelling of the rate-pH curve is observed as well as a change of the substituent influence on the hydrolysis rate. These experimental findings suggest the formation of an unreactive side product of the phenylurea in a parasitic side equilibrium at sufficiently high pH. The urea dissociates at the aryl-NH group to give its conjugate base. For the hydrolytic decomposition of phenylureas an addition-elimination mechanism is proposed as has been established for the alkaline hydrolysis of carboxylic acid esters and amides.

- Aromatic tertiary amines, enamines, deoxybenzoins and benzils
-
A novel synthesis of aromatic tertiary amines involves reacting an aromatic anil and an aromatic ether in a molar ratio of 1:1; adjusting the ratio to 2:1 produces novel enamines and by employing a two step process for enamine production, various unsymmetrically substituted enamines can be obtained which are readily hydrolyzed to corresponding deoxybenzoins which in turn are readily oxidized to benzils, the aromatic tertiary amines may be used to produce charge transport layers in xerography, while the benzils may be used to produce a variety of desired polymers.
