Synthesis and Structure of 1,9-Dinitro-5-oxa-11-azatricyclo[6.4.0.04,9]dodecan-2-one

A series of 6,11-disubstituted 1,9-dinitro-5-oxa-11-azatricyclo[6.4.0.04,9 ]dodecan-2-ones were prepared from anionic adducts of 2,4-dinitrophenol with propanone and 2-phenylethanone carbanions by successive selective reduction with sodium borohydride and aminomethylation with formaldehyde and primary amines. By spectral methods and by quantum-chemical calculations following PM3 method the structure of the molecules synthesized was shown to contain all the three rings in a chair form with equatorial substituents in positions 6 and 11.

Synthesis and Structure of Derivatives of 9-(2-Oxopropyl)-1,5-dinitro-7,8-benzo-3-azabicylo[3.3.1]non-7-en-6-ones

A number of 3-R-9-(2-oxopropyl)-1,5-dinitro-7,8-benzo-3-azsbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-6-ones was synthesized by Mannich reaction involving Yanovsky adduct of 2,4-dinitronaphthol. It was established by molecular spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis that the piperidine ring in these compounds was in the chairconformation with a diequatorial position of the substituent attached to the heteroatom and 2-oxo-propyl group, and the cyclohexenone fragment was in sofaform. By an example of 3-methyl-9-(2-oxopropyl)-1,5-dinitro-7,8-benzo-3-azsbicyclo[3.3.1]non-7-en-6-one the dissociative ionization of bicyclononanes under the electron impact was investigated.

VI. Synthesis of heterocyclic analogs of γ-aminobutyric acid from 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid

A series of 7-carboxy-3-R-1,5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-enes was synthesized by reduction of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid with sodium borohydride followed by Mannich reaction with formaldehyde and primary amines. The mechanism of decomposition under electron impact of the 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane was established. Enthalpies of formation of compounds synthesized were calculated by semiempirical PM3 method.

3-Azabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane Derivatives: IV. * Synthesis of Amino Acids with 3-Azabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane Fragment **

A series of 1.5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-enes was prepared by reduction of 1-R-2,4- and 1-R-3,5-dinitrobenzenes with potassium borohydride followed by Mannich reaction with formaldehyde and amino acids. The molecular structure of (6-bromo-1,5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-en-3-yl)acetic acid was studied by X-ray diffraction analysis. The mechanism of decomposition under electron impact was determined for (7-methoxy-1,5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-en-3-yl)acetic acid.

Cyclization of n-alkylazinium cations with bisnucleophiles. 4. Regio- and stereospecificity of the reactions of β-diketones with quinoxalinium salts and their aza and benzo analogs

The reactions of substituted quinoxalinium, benzo[g]- and benzo[f]quinoxalinium, and pyrido[2,3-b]pyrazinium salts with anions of β-dicarbonyl compounds give furo[2,3-b]-annelated systems with strictly determined regio- and stereoorientations.
