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.

Bis(trimethylsilyl) derivative of ethyl 3-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylate (VI) and tris(trimethylsilyl) derivative of ethyl 3,5-diaminopyrazole-4-carboxylate (VII) on reaction with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranolyl chloride and subsequent debenzoylation afforded the respective β-D-ribofuranosyl derivatives VIIIa and Xa. Their alkaline hydrolysis led to 1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-3-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (VIIIc) and 1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-3,5-diaminopyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (Xb). The esters VIIIa and Xa were not ammonolyzed under normal conditions. Contrary to nucleosidation of the silyl derivatives VI and VII, sodium salt of ethyl 3-aminopyrazole-4-carboxylate was alkylated with 4-chloromethyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane (XI) or 5-(p-toluenesulfonyloxy)-1,3-dioxane (XVIIb) to give a mixture of the N-isomeric derivatives XIIIa, XIXa and XIIa, XVIIIa, respectively; sodium salt of the 3,5-diamino derivative V reacted with these synthons under formation of the corresponding compounds XIIIb and XXa. Subsequent alkaline and acid hydrolysis of XIIa and XIIIb gave the open-chain analogs of nucleosides XV and XVI. The N-(1,3-dioxan-5-yl) derivatives XVIIIc and XXa resisted acid hydrolysis, giving rise only to carboxylic acids XVIIIb and XXb.

The behavior of N-benzoylaspartic acid and N-benzoylglutamic acid has been investigated at 100° in dilute solution in water and aqueous hydrochloric acid within the pH range 3.1–0.5. Some data are presented concerning the hydrolysis of the N-benzoyl derivatives of alanine, β-alanine, leucine, glycine, serine, and β-ethanolamine in water, 0.1 N hydrochloric acid, and 2 N hydrochloric acid. Benzoylglutamic acid undergoes a pH-independent conversion into pyrrolid-2-one-5-carboxylic acid, which then hydrolyses in mineral acid to glutamic acid; however, N-benzoylaspartic acid, under similar conditions, hydrolyses much more rapidly by a route which does not involve the corresponding lactam as an intermediate. In anhydrous alcohols the solvolysis of N-benzoylaspartic acid gives mixtures of aspartic acid and the β ester.First-order rate constants have been obtained for the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of pyrrolid-2-one-5-carboxylic acid (I) and azetidin-2-one-4-carboxylic acid (II) in water over this pH range.

AbstractSilica sulfuric acid was found to be an efficient, recoverable, reusable and environment-friendly catalyst for the fast hydrolysis of various carboxylic acid esters in high conversions and selectivities under microwave irradiation conditions. This protocol has the advantages of no corrosion, no environmental pollution, high reaction rate, high yield, and simple work-up procedure.

Direct interaction of salicylaldehyde oxyanion with ethyl 7-chloro-8-nitro-4-oxoquinoline-3- carboxylate (2) delivered the respective 7-(2-formyl-phenoxy)-8-nitro-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic ester 3. Reductive cyclization of 3 furnished the corresponding 4-oxo-[1,4]benzoxazepino[2,3- h]quinoline-3-carboxylic ester 5. Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the esters 3/5 produced the respective acids 4/6. Structural assignments for the new compounds 3 - 6 are supported by microanalytical and spectral (IR, HRMS, NMR) data and confirmed by X-ray structure determination for compound 5. Interestingly, compound 6 exhibited good antifungal activity against C. albicans.

Kinetics of formation of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles from 24 substitution derivatives of O-benzoylbenzamidoxime have been studied in sulphuric acid and aqueous ethanol media. It has been found that this medium requires introduction of the Hammett H0 function instead of the pH scale beginning as low as from 0.1% solutions of mineral acids. Effects of the acid concentration, ionic strength, and temperature on the reaction rate and on the kinetic isotope effect have been followed. From these dependences and from polar effects of substituents it was concluded that along with the cyclization to 1,2,4-oxadiazoles there proceeds hydrolysis to benzamidoxime and benzoic acid. The reaction is thermodynamically controlled by the acid-base equilibrium of the O-benzylated benzamidoximes.

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.
