In this work we report solvatochromic and luminescent properties of ethyl N-salicylideneglycinate (1), ethyl N-(5-methoxysalicylidene)glycinate (2), ethyl N-(5-bromosalicylidene)glycinate (3), and ethyl N-(5-nitrosalicylidene)glycinate (4) dyes. 1–4 correspond to a class of N-salicylidene aniline derivatives, whose photophysical properties are dictated by the intramolecular proton transfer between the OH-function and the imine N-atom, affording tautomerization between the enol-imine and keto-enamine forms. Photophysical properties of 1–4 were studied in different pure non-polar and (a)protic polar solvents as well as upon gradual addition of NEt3, NaOH, and CH3SO3H. The DFT calculations were performed to verify the structures of 1–4 as well as their electronic and optical properties.

Among the five hydroxy (OH) groups of quercetin (3,5,7,3',4'-pentahydroxyflavone), the OH group at 5 position is the most resistant to methylation due to its strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding with the carbonyl group at 4 position. Thus, it is generally difficult to synthesize the pentamethyl ether efficiently by conventional methylation. Here, we describe a simple and effective per-O-methylation of quercetin with dimethyl sulfate in potassium (or sodium) hydroxide/dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature for about 2 hours, affording quercetin pentamethyl ether (QPE) quantitatively as a single product. When methyl iodide was used in place of dimethyl sulfate, the C-methylation product 6-methylquercetin pentamethyl ether was also formed. A computational study provided a rationale for the experimental results.

Reaction of olean-12-ene-3β,16β,22α,28-tetrol ( chichipegenin ) (1) with methyl orthoformate gives the 16β,22α,28-orthoformate (2). Acetylation of the ortho ester followed by hydrolysis gives the tetrol 3β-monoacetate (5). It is shown that intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurs in the tetrol (1) and the 3β-monoacetate (5) in non-polar solvents. X-Ray crystallographic data on the tetrol and its tetraacetate (4) are reported. The tetrol,C30H50O4, M 474.72, crystallized in the orthorhombic space group P 212121 with a 12.363(6), b 31.888(3), c 6.962(3) Ǻ, V 2745(1) Ǻ3, Dc(Z = 4) 1.149 g cm-3, N = N(unique) 2394, No 1878 [I > 1.5σ(I)], Nvar 500; R 0.038, Rw 0.040. The tetraacetate , C38H58O8, M 642.87, crystallized in the monoclinic space group P 21, with a 10.603(2), b 16.569(1), c 10.814(1) Ǻ, β 98.72(1)°, V 1877.9(4) Ǻ3, Dc(Z = 2) 1.137g cm-3 N 3090, Rmerge 4.67% for N(unique) 2917, No 2663 [I > 2.5σ(I)], Nvar 414; R 0.053, Rw 0.050.

N.m.r. chemical shifts of ring protons and absorption spectra of 4-substituted 2-nitroaniline deriva- tives were investigated. It was ascertained that the rotations of dimethylamino and/or 2-nitro groups are influenced by the resonance interaction of the dimethylamino group with 4-substituents and the C1 → C2 absorption band is displaced bathochromically by resonance saturation with 4-substituents. The long-range coupling of NH with H5 in N-methyl-2-nitro-p-toluidine was found to be absent and it is considered that the intramolecular hydrogen bonding of amino hydrogen with the 2-nitro group is ruptured by ROH and polar solvents.
