Competitive Conversions of Carbonyl-Containing Methanofullerenes Induced by Electron Transfer

The electrochemical reduction of carbonyl-containing methanofullerenes is studied by methods of cyclic voltammetry and ESR with in situ electrolysis in the environment of 0.1 M Bu4NBF4 in o-dichlorobenzene-dimethylformamide (3:1 by volume). It is shown that the one-electron transfer onto the fullerene sphere of these compounds induces opening of the three-membered cycle, which leads to processes of retrocyclopropanation, transfer of the adduct onto the fullerene sphere of another molecule with the formation of bismethanofullerenes, and transformation into fullerodihydrofuran. The totality of competitive processes and the balance between these is defined by the nature of substituents at the exocarbon atom and the experimental conditions. The opening process is interpreted as the intramolecular electron transfer from the fullerene sphere onto the three-membered cycle.

Reactions of carbanions of bis(dialkoxyphosphoryl)bromomethane with fullerenes C60 and C70

The reactions of carbanions of bis(dialkoxyphosphoryl)bromomethanes with fullerenes C60 and C70 afforded new bis(dialkoxyphosphoryl)methanofullerenes C60 and C70, respectively, whose structures were established by spectroscopic methods.

Synthesis and properties of new triazole methanofullerenes under the “click-chemistry” conditions

The “click-chemistry” methods were used for the first time to synthesize new 1,2,3-triazole derivatives of fullerene, promising for the study of their biological activity, as well as for the preparation of new fullerene-containing materials on their basis. The purity and composition of the compounds synthesized were confirmed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and HPLC, their structures were confirmed by a combination of 2D NMR homo- and heteronuclear correlation.

SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL THIAZOLES BEARING HYDRAZINE, THIOSEMICARBAZIDE, THIAZOLE, AND THIAZOLIDINONE MOIETIES

Thiazolecarboxylate esters (I) and (II) react with hydrazine hydrate to give the acid hydrazides (III) and (IV), which then react with KSCN and PhNCS to give high yields of the thiosemicarbazides (V)-(VIII). Cyclocondensation of the thiosemicarbazide (V) with 3-phenyl-3-chloro-2-oxopropionic acid derivatives gives compounds with two thiazole moieties (IX)-(XIV). The reaction of the phenylthiosemicarbazides (VII) and (VIII) with chloroacetyl chloride and (or) chloroacetic acid affords the thiazolidinonethiazoles (XV) and (XVI).

Reactions of esters of 3-phenyl-3-chloro-2-oxopropionic acid with 2-aminopyridines and 2-aminoquinoline

The reaction of esters of 3-phenyl-3-chloro-2-oxopropionic acid with 2-aminopyridines and 2-aminoquinoline in chloroform at reflux gave derivatives of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and imidazo[1,2-a]quinoline in high yield.

Synthesis of new functionally substituted fullerenopyrrolidines

New fullerenopyrrolidines were synthesized by the three-component reactions of fullerene C60, N-methylglycine, and aromatic aldehydes, viz., N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)-4-aminobenzaldehyde, N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-methyl-4-aminobenzaldehyde, indole-3-carbaldehyde, 4-phenylbenzaldehyde, and anthracene-9-carbaldehyde. The structures of the resulting compounds were established by spectroscopic methods.

Synthesis of novel heterocycles from thiazolecarbohydrazides

Cyclization of 2-methyl (or -phenyl)-5-phenylthiazole-4-carbohydrazides (1) and (2) under various conditions gives differing oxadiazoles: 2-(2′-substituted-5′-phenyl-4′-thiazolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiones (7) and (8), and 2-(2′-substituted-5′-phenyl-4′-thiazolyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (9) and (10). Cyclodehydration of thiazolecarbonyl-thiosemicarbazides (3)–(6) with NaOH givesthe 3-(2′-substituted-5′-phenyl-4′-thiazolyl)-4-substituted-4H-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles (11)–(14), while H3PO4 gives the 2-(2′-substituted-5′-phenyl-4′-thiazolyl)-5-phenylamino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles (15) and (16).

Novel fluorene-containing fullerenes C60: synthesis and structures

Reactions of fullerene C60 with fluorene-2-carbaldehyde or 2,7-diacetylfluorene in toluene gave novel spiromethanofullerenes containing a reactive free formyl group. A novel fluorene-containing fullerenopyrrolidine was obtained by the Prato reaction. The purity and compositions of the compounds obtained were confirmed by MALDI TOF mass spectrometry and HPLC. Their structures were confirmed by 2D homo-and heterocorrelation NMR techniques.

Synthesis and structures of new C60 fullerene derivatives containing carbonyl groups

The reactions of fullerene C60 with substituted haloketones, including organophosphorus haloketones, in the presence of bases afforded new methanofullerenes containing carbonyl or carbonyl and acetal groups. The structures of the resulting compounds were established by spectroscopic methods. Their electrochemical reduction and oxidation were studied by cyclic voltammetry and ESR spectroscopy. The three-dimensional structures were calculated by the PM3 and DFT/PBE/TZ2P methods.

Reaction of 3-phenyl-3-chloro-2-oxopropionic acid derivatives with ortho-phenylenediamine

ConclusionsThe reaction of dialkylamides of 3-phenyl-3-chloro-2-oxopropionic acid with orthophenylenediamine gave 2-(N,N-dialkylcarbamoyl)-1,4-dihydroquinoxalines, while esters of this acid react with ortho-phenylenediamine to give 3-(α-chlorobenzyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydro-quinoxalines, which react with phosphites to yield the corresponding 3-(O,O-dialkylphos-phonobenzyl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoxalines.
