An efficient synthetic approach for the preparation of densely substituted furans starting from ( E)-ethyl 3-aryl-2-cyanoacrylates and ethyl glycinate hydrochloride mediated by 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene in the presence of water is investigated. The reactions are carried out under mild conditions in N,N-dimethylformamide at 95 °C. The products are cleanly obtained in 50%–57% yields, resulting in an appealing alternative for accessing polysubstituted furan-2,4-dicarboxylates. The structure of a typical product, diethyl 5-amino-3-( p-tolyl)furan-2,4-dicarboxylate, is confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

Carboncones, a special family of all-carbon allotropes, are predicted to have unique properties that distinguish them from fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphenes. Owing to the absence of methods to synthesize atomically well-defined carboncones, however, experimental insight into the nature of pure carboncones has been inaccessible. Herein, we describe a facile synthesis of an atomically well-defined carboncone[1,2] (C70H20) and its soluble penta-mesityl derivative. Identified by x-ray crystallography, the carbon skeleton is a carboncone with the largest possible apex angle. Much of the structural strain is overcome in the final step of converting the bowl-shaped precursor into the rigid carboncone under mild reaction conditions. This work provides a research opportunity for investigations of atomically precise single-layered carboncones having even higher cone walls and/or smaller apex angles.

A synthetic approach to a new group of stable chiral C2-symmetric diimines with the 4,5-diazafluorene core has been developed based on condensation of dipinodiazafluorene with aromatic diamines. The chemical structures of new compounds were proven by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. All the compounds form solvates with organic solvents (chloroform, benzene, 1,4-dioxane) and water. Specific spectral data of the new compounds are explained using calculated data (DFT). Diimines of the pinodiazafluorene series give colored reactions with transition metal ions and can be regarded as prospective polydentate ligands with interesting luminescent and chiroptical properties.

The relative stereochemistry of methyl 2-phthalimido-1- trimethylsilyloxybicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-carboxylate (9) and its 5,6-epoxide (10), intermediates in a synthetic approach to the amino acid antibiotic anticapsin, were established by the TiCl4-mediated cyclization of (10) to the carbolactone (12); the structure of which was proved by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Full-matrix least- squares refinement of all atomic parameters with individual isotropic thermal parameters for the hydrogen atoms by using 1446 reflections converged at R 0.036. Crystals of (12) are monoclinic, P21/c, a 12.342(3), b 12.239(2), c 13.405(3) Ǻ, β 99.34(2)°, Z 4.

One-dimensional (1D) polynuclear Cu(II) complex (1) derived from (5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-hydroxybenzohydrazide (H2L) is synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, ESI-MS, and single crystal X-ray crystallography. Its catalytic performance towards the solvent-free microwave-assisted peroxidative oxidation of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons under mild conditions is compared with that of dinuclear Cu(II) complexes (2 and 3) of the same ligand, previously reported as antiproliferative agents. Polymer 1 exhibits the highest activity, either for the oxidation of cyclohexane (leading to overall yields, based on the alkane, of up to 39% of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone) or towards the oxidation of toluene (selectively affording benzaldehyde up to a 44% yield), after 2 or 2.5 h of irradiation at 80 or 50 °C, respectively.

The reaction of PhECl2 with 2 equiv of LiHN-t-Bu has been studied for the series E = As, Sb, and Bi to determine the effect of the phenyl group on subsequent amine condensation processes. For PhAsCl2, the metathesis product PhAs(NH-t-Bu)2 4 was obtained as a colourless oil. Similar reactions involving PhECl2, where E = Sb or Bi, yielded the cyclodipnict(III)azanes PhE(μ-N-t-Bu)2EPh 5 (E = Sb) and 6 (E = Bi), respectively. Treatment of 4 with 2 equiv of n-BuLi produced the dilithium salt Li2[PhAs(N-t-Bu)2] 7a. Products 4, 5, 6, and 7a were characterized by 1H, 7Li (7a), and 13C NMR spectra, while 5, 6, and 7a were also structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound 7a is dimeric in the solid state via intermolecular Li···N and η6-Li···Ph interactions. The cyclodipnict(III)azanes 5 and 6 have similar structures, with the exocyclic phenyl groups in trans positions relative to the E2N2 ring. This synthetic approach provides a new route to the four-membered rings RE(μ-N-t-Bu)2ER (E = Sb, Bi) and the first example of a bis(organyl)cyclodibism(III)azane.Key words: arsenic, antimony, bismuth, amides, imides.

We report an efficient one-pot synthesis of a novel series of chromenopyridodiazepinone polyheterocycles by a catalyst-free nucleo­philic addition of ethane-1,2-diamine to (E,E)-3-[3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl]-2-styrylchromones at room temperature under mild conditions. The reaction proceeds by a tandem process involving 1,4- and 1,6-aza-conjugate additions of one amino group of ethane-1,2-diamine to the α,β-unsaturated (3-oxoprop-1-en-1-yl) and the α,β,γ,δ-diunsaturated (2-styrylchromone) carbonyl system of the precursor, followed by imine condensation of the remaining amino group to generate the chromenopyridodiazepinone polyheterocycle. All compounds were characterized by means of one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray crystallography.

The title diester , Ph2C=C=C=C( COOEt )2 (2), has been prepared by a Wittig reaction between (2-bromo-3,3-diphenylprop-2-en-1-yl) triphenylphosphonium bromide and diethyl 2-oxopropane-1,3-dioate ( mesoxalic ester). The diester (2) undergoes cyclization reactions in concentrated sulfuric acid to give diethyl 2-(3'-phenyl-1H-inden-1'-y1idene)propane-l,3-dioate (4) and triethyl 3-oxo-3',9-diphenyl-2,3-dihydrospiro[lH-fluorene-1,l'-[1H]indene]-2,2,4-tricarboxylate (6), the structure of which was determined by X-ray crystallography. The title diester (2)adds cyclopentadiene across the 2,3-C=C bond to give diethyl 3-(2',2'-diphenylethenylidene)bicyclo[2.2.l]hept-5-ene-2,2-dicarboxylate (10). Alkaline hydrolysis of diester (10) gives an unstable colourless acid and a stable yellow crypto acid shown by X-ray crystallography to be 3-(2',2'-diphenylethenyl)bicyclo[2.2.l]hepta-2,5-diene-2-carboxylic acid (12). Attempts to convert diesters (2) and acid (12) into derivatives suitable for pyrolytic generation of Ph2C=C=C=C=C=O failed; The mono-acid chloride (14) yielded a small phenylazulene fraction on pyrolysis at 780-800°/0.02 mm.
