Derivatives Of

Alkylation of derivatives of 4-aryl-1-naphthols (I-V) by 2,3-epoxypropyl chloride in methanolic sodium hydroxide gave epoxy derivatives VI, VIII, IX, XI and XII, apart from products of cleavage of the oxirane ring, VII and X. Analogous alkylation of compounds I, IV and V by 2-(N,N-diethylamino)ethyl chloride hydrochloride in a two-phase medium afforded basic ethers XIII to XV. The cleavage of the oxirane ring in compound VI by the action of primary and secondary amines, piperidine and substituted piperazines led to compounds XVI-XXIV. Reaction of thionyl chloride with compounds XXI, XXII and XXIV gave chloro derivatives XXV-XXVII.Exposure of compound XXII to 4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride produced compound XXVIII, retaining the secondary alcoholic group. In an antineoplastic screening in vivo none of the compounds prepared had an appreciable activity. Compound XVII, being an analogue of propranolol, was used in the test of isoproterenolic tachycardia, and showed a beta-lytic effect comparable with that of propranol.

The mechanism of perchloric acid cleavage of epoxides I and II was established on the basis of experiments using H2 18O. The 2α,3α-epoxide I gave two products: the cyclic ether V (60%) arising by 5(O)n participation of the 19-acetoxyl and the diol VI (40%). The latter compound is formed by two mechanisms: 1) By direct cleavage of the oxirane ring with H2 18O as external nucleophile and 2) by 7(O)π,n participation via the ion III. Under the same conditions the 5α,6α-epoxide II yielded two diols: The diequatorial diol VIII (96%) arising by 6(O)π,n participation and the diaxial diol IX which is again formed by both direct cleavage of the oxirane ring with H2 18O and by 7(O)π,n participation via the intermediate ion X. The competition of several mechanisms is discussed.

Hsab Theory

The regioselectivity of epoxide ring opening can be analyzed in terms of hard–soft acid–base (HSAB) theory. The coordination of the hard acid with the oxygen atom of the oxirane ring produces a "pulling effect" which determines the direction of the ring opening. In the absence of a strong "pulling effect" the "pushing effect" of the approaching base is examined and the consequences of relative softness or hardness of the nucleophile on the regioselectivity of the ring opening are discussed.

Hydroxylation and epoxidation, followed by the oxirane ring opening, of methyl 2,3-dideoxy-α and β-DL-pent-2-enopyranosides, readily available by the transformation of furfuryl alcohol, afforded the title compounds. Steric course of hydroxylation and epoxidation reactions were examined. The p.m.r. data of methyl 4-O-acetyl-2,3-anhydro-DL-pentopyranosides are reported.

Initial Base

The mechanism of action of nucleophilic and non-nucleophilic bases in the system “acetic acid (HOAc) – epichlorohydrin (ECH) – R3X (R = alkyl, X = N, P)” has been studied. The observed orders of the reaction with respect to the components were found. It has been proved that the catalytic activity of the starting bases is determined by their nucleophilicity, rather than basicity. It is shown that the crucial stage of the reaction is the quaternisation of the starting base with the formation of a reactive intermediate, the acetate anion. Monitoring of possible paths of oxirane ring-opening by the initial base and the acetate anion was carried out. The behaviour of the model base, triphenylphosphine, in the quaternisation reaction was studied by UV spectroscopy. The rate constants of quaternisation in the reaction of tribenzylamine and triphenylphosphine with ECH have been estimated. The activation parameters of the stages of oxirane ring-opening by trimethylamine and the acetate anion were calculated using a quantum chemical method. It has been shown that the starting base attacks only the activated oxirane, while the acetate anion is capable of nucleophilic opening of both activated and non-activated ECH rings. A scheme for the catalytic opening of the oxirane ring by the bases in the system “ECH – HOAc – R3X” is proposed, which includes a series of both consecutive and parallel stages leading to the formation of the reaction product.
