Unsymmetrical pyrazoles with alkyl, aryl, nitro and carboxyl substituents at C3 or C5 have been methylated with dimethyl sulfate in methanol, dimethyl sulfate in basic medium, and with diazomethane. The ratios of the isomeric N-methylpyrazoles have been determined by N.M.R. and g.l.c. analysis. The modified Ullmann phenylation has also been applied to these pyrazoles. Explanations for the observed product orientations involve considerations of electronic and steric effects, the possible intermediacy of quaternary salts, and, in some instances, the likelihood that the dominant tautomer is reacting.

ABSTRACT Ketolides represent the latest group of macrolide antibiotics. Tight binding of ketolides to the ribosome appears to correlate with the presence of an extended alkyl-aryl side chain. Recently developed 6,11-bridged bicyclic ketolides extend the spectrum of platforms used to generate new potent macrolides with extended alkyl-aryl side chains. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the site of binding and the action of bridged macrolides in the ribosomes of Escherichia coli. All the bridged macrolides investigated efficiently protected A2058 and A2059 in domain V of 23S rRNA from modification by dimethyl sulfate and U2609 from modification by carbodiimide. In addition, bridged macrolides that carry extended alkyl-aryl side chains protruding from the 6,11 bridge protected A752 in helix 35 of domain II of 23S rRNA from modification by dimethyl sulfate. Bridged macrolides efficiently displaced erythromycin from the ribosome in a competition binding assay. The A2058G mutation in 23S rRNA conferred resistance to the bridged macrolides. The U2609C mutation, which renders E. coli resistant to the previously studied ketolides telithromycin and cethromycin, barely affected cell susceptibility to the bridged macrolides used in this study. The results of the biochemical and genetic studies indicate that in the E. coli ribosome, bridged macrolides bind in the nascent peptide exit tunnel at the site previously described for other macrolide antibiotics. The presence of the side chain promotes the formation of specific interactions with the helix 35 of 23S rRNA.

Boron trimethyl reacts with each of the organometalloid-hydrazine derivatives Me2NN(R)GeMe3 (R = H, Me, SiMe3) except Me2NN(SiMe3)GeMe3, and with Me2NNHSiMe3, forming 1:1 adducts. With Me2NN(SiMe3)GeMe3 and BMe3, no adduct was formed even at low temperatures. On the basis of p.m.r. spectra, the metalloid-substituted nitrogen atom rather than the terminal nitrogen, is indicated as the basic center at which adduct formation occurs. With BF3, the Si—N and Ge—N bonds of the hydrazine derivatives were cleaved, again indicating attack at the central nitrogen atom. In a series of experiments involving CY2 (Y = O, S) and Me2NN(R)MMe3 (R = H, Me, SiMe3; M = Si, Ge), reaction occurred readily for R = H, but less readily for R = Me and for the compound Me2NN(GeMe3)2, while no reaction was observed for the compounds Me2NN(SiMe3)2 and Me2NN(SiMe3)GeMe3, even when heat or basic catalysts were employed. Reaction products, carbamate and thiocarbamate derivatives, Me2NN(R)C(Y)YMMe3, were characterized on the basis molecular weight, i.r., p.m.r., and mass spectroscopy, and m.p. data. Ease of formation is discussed in terms of electronic and steric effects.

Four naphthopyran derivatives, namely, 3,3-bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran, C33H22O, NP1, 3,3-bis([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl)-3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran, C37H26O, NP2, 3,3-bis(4-phenoxyphenyl)-3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran, C37H26O2, NP3, and 3,3-bis(4-methoxy-2-methylphenyl)-3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran, C29H26O3, NP4, were synthesized and their photochromic properties investigated. NP1–NP4 exhibited good photochromism in different solutions and in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) film under UV light irradiation. Solvatochromism and the electronic and steric effects of the substituent group on photochromism were analyzed and decolouration curves were found to fit a monoexponential kinetic decay in most cases. Single-crystal X-ray analysis of NP1 and NP2 revealed the structure–property relationships. Good fatigue resistance of NP1, both in solution and in the PMMA film, endows it with potential value for applications.
