- 1,2,2-Tribromocyclopropanecarboxylic acid and derivatives - Valuable intermediates for four carbon cyclopropane and cyclopropene synthons
-
Methyl 1,1,2-tribromocyclopropanecarboxylate is readily available by dibromocyclopropanation of methyl α-bromoacrylate. Reaction with methyllithium at low temperature provides a simple route to methyl 2-bromocyclopropene carboxylate, while modification of the ester group followed by reaction with methyllithium leads to a series of related four-carbon cyclopropenes. The tribromo-ester is also readily converted into 1,1,2,2-tetrabromocyclopropane, a valuable three-carbon cyclopropene synthon.

- Chemoselective Synthesis of N-Terminal Cysteinyl Thioesters via β,γ-C,S Thiol-Michael Addition
-
Dehydroalanine (ΔAla) is a highly electrophilic residue that can react efficiently with sulfur nucleophiles to furnish cysteinyl analogues. Herein, we report an efficient synthesis of N-terminal cysteinyl thioesters, suitable for S,N-acyl transfer, based on β,γ-C,S thiol-Michael addition. Both ionic and radical-based methodologies were found to be efficient for this process.

- Using bar infrared spectra and coincidence indexes to study the diversity of solid cyanuric acid structures
-
A general method was developed for studying the diversity of individuals in a population based on the diversity of infrared spectra of solid cyanuric acid analytes obtained from various reactions of trichlorocyanuric acid. This method first generates infrared bar spectra for the analytes and then measures the coincidence and continence among pairs of the spectral peaks via confrontation matrices. Class markers are established to characterize analyte classes. Possible correlations among the employed reaction conditions and the nature of the produced solids, which are based on their infrared bar spectra, are discussed. The method of coincidence may be useful for characterizing polymorphs, particularly those of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The method may also be extended to define the homogeneity of solid analytes. The ANALIN module of the ANALOR software suite running on a dBase platform is used to generate the bar infrared spectra and to handle all calculations.

The exploration of different reaction conditions aiming to obtain both 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiine-2-yl derivatives and 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzoxathiine-3-yl ones is reported. The treatment of 1,2-mercaptophenol with an organic base and a specific 2-bromo acrylate results in a solvent- and substrate-dependent exclusive solvation of O- and S-anions, thus managing the regioselectivity.

- Targeting Alzheimer's disease by investigating previously unexplored chemical space surrounding the cholinesterase inhibitor donepezil
-
A series of twenty seven acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, as potential agents for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, were designed and synthesised based upon previously unexplored chemical space surrounding the molecular skeleton of the drug donepezil, which is currently used for the management of mild to severe Alzheimer's disease. Two series of analogues were prepared, the first looking at the replacement of the piperidine ring in donepezil with different sized saturated N-containing ring systems and the second looking at the introduction of different linkers between the indanone and piperidine rings in donepezil. The most active analogue 5,6-dimethoxy-1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-2-yl 1-benzylpiperidine-4-carboxylate (67) afforded an in vitro IC50value of 0.03 ± 0.07 μM against acetylcholinesterase with no cytotoxicity observed (IC50of >100 μM, SH-SY5Y cell line). In comparison donepezil had an IC50of 0.05 ± 0.06 μM and an observed cytotoxicity IC50of 15.54 ± 1.12 μM. Molecular modelling showed a strong correlation between activity and in silico binding in the active site of acetylcholinesterase.

- Synthesis and biological evaluation of a series of benzoxazole/ benzothiazole-containing 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine derivatives as potential antidepressants
-
A series of benzoxazole/benzothiazole-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine derivatives (5a-5d and 8a-8j) was synthesized. Compounds were evaluated for binding affinities at the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors. Antidepressant activities of the compounds were screened using the forced swimming test (FST) and the tail suspension test (TST). The results indicated that the compounds exhibited high affinities for the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors and showed a marked antidepressant-like activity. Compound 8g exhibited high affinities for the 5-HT1A (Ki = 17 nM) and 5-HT2A (Ki = 0.71 nM) receptors; it also produced a decrease of the immobility time and exhibited potent antidepressant-like effects in the FST and TST in mice.

- Efficient access to isoxazoles from alkenes
-
The direct regioselective synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles was achieved in one reaction vessel through a sequence of reactions involving the net bromination of an electron-deficient alkene, in situ generation of a nitrile oxide, 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, and loss of HBr from an intermediate 5,5-disubstituted bromoisoxazoline. This one-pot process enables the synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles directly from electron-deficient alkenes thereby negating the isolation of the 1,1-disubstituted bromoalkene alkyne surrogate.

- Conformational Stability, Barriers to Internal Rotation, Vibrational Assignment, and RHF/STO-3G* Calculations of 2-Bromopropenoyl Fluoride
-
The far-infrared spectrum of gaseous 2-bromopropenoyl fluoride, CH2CBrCFO, has been recorded at a resolution of 0.10 cm-1 in the region 350-35 cm-1.The fundamental asymmetric torsional frequencies of the more stable s-trans (two double bonds oriented trans to one another) and the high-energy s-cis conformations have been observed at 61.90 and 44.27 cm-1, respectively, each with several excited states appearing at lower frequencies.From these data, the asymmetric torsional potential function governing internal rotation about the C-C bond has been determined.The potential coefficients are V1 = -17 +/- 12, V2 = 1506 +/- 48, V3 = 321 +/- 19, V4 = -43 +/- 14, and V5 = -48 +/- 7 cm-1.The s-trans-s-cis and s-cis-s-trans barriers have been determined to be 1684 +/- 35 and 1428 +/- 21 cm-1, respectively, with an energy difference between the conformations of 256 +/- 79 cm-1 (732 +/- 226 cal/mol).From studies of the Raman spectrum at variable temperatures, the conformational enthalpy difference has been determined to be 247 +/- 60 cm-1 (706 +/- 172 cal/mol) and 340 +/- 22 cm-1 (972 +/- 63 cal/mol) for the gas and liquid, respectively.A complete assignment of the vibrational fundamentals observed from the infrared spectra (3500-50 cm-1) of the gas and solid and the Raman spectra (3200-10 cm-1) of all three physical states is proposed.All of these data are compared to the corresponding quantities obtained from ab initio Hartree-Fock gradient calculations employing the STO-3G* basis set.The results are discussed and compared with the corresponding quantities obtained for some similar molecules.

- REACTIONS OF HALOGEN FLUORIDES XII. REACTION OF BROMINE TRIFLUORIDE WITH BROMINE-CONTAINING ESTERS. A NEW METHOD FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF FLUOROALKYL 2-FLUOROACRYLATES
-
Being weak Lewis bases, esters reduce the reactivity of bromine trifluoride in the substitutive fluorination of organic bromine derivatives.For this reason the rate of the reaction of bromine trifluoride with bromine-containing esters depends not only on the electronic characteristics of the substituents at the reaction center but also on the basicity of the ester.As a rule, the selectivity of the reaction increases with increase in the basicity of the ester.The reaction of bromine trifluoride or chlorine monofluoride with fluoroalkyl 2,3-dibromopropionates can be used successfully for the synthesis of monomers (fluoroalkyl 2-fluoroacrylates).

-
The Diels-Alder reactions of cyclopentadiene with a series of four α-alkylthio-alkyl acrylates were investigated.Although slightly slower than the reactions of unsubstituted alkyl acrylates, the spontaneous cycloadditions of these captodative olefins occur at room temperature affording adducts in excellent yield.The steric effect of the ester function is found to be more important in determining the dienophilic reactivity than the endo/exo ratios of the adducts and increase in the size of the alkylthio group reduces the endo selectivity of that group from 66-69percent (for methylthio) to 25-22percent (for tertiobutylthio group).The aluminium trichloride complexed methoxycarbonyl group leads to a very high endo-stereoselectivity (97percent) of that group.

This paper deals with the kinetics of bromine addition to unsaturated compounds in presence of added bromide ions at 22, 30, 38, 46, and 54 deg C.The substrates used were acrylamide (AAm), methyl acrylate (MA), ethyl acrylate (EA), butyl acrylate (BA), t-butyl acrylate (tBA), methacrylamide (MAAm), methyl methacrylate (MMA), ethyl methacrylate (EMA), methyl crotonate (MC), and ethyl crotonate (EC).The kinetics was followed potentiometrically.The activation parameters (ΔH*, ΔS*, and ΔG*) were calculated and compared.Estimation of product ratio of bromohydrin to dibromide showed the absence of any correlation of the product formation with reactivity of the substrates.The observed parameters are discussed in relation to the proposed reaction mechanisms.

- Carbon-13 NMR Spectra of Bromine-containing Esters
-
13CHBrCOOR fragments of bromine-containing mono- and dicarboxylates show 13C NMR signals in the range 38-45 ppm, at 12-15 ppm to high field of their chloro analogues.The introduction of one bromine atom into the α-CH2 group causes a 6-13 ppm shift of the carbon signal, depending on the type of ester.The replacement of H with Br in 13C2H2(COOR)2 has only a negligible influence on the 13CH2 signal position.The 13CBr2COOR fragment signals appear in the range 40-54 ppm. 13C NMR data, including the chemical shift values, signal multiplicities and spin-spin couplings, make possible the identification of isomers present in isomer mixtures of bromine-containing esters.The 13COOR chemical shifts of diastereomers of α,β-dibromoesters differ noticeably from each other, and the 13C NMR spectra can thus be used to supply preliminary information about the stereochemistry of bromine addition to α,β-unsaturated acids.
