Synthesis of Enantiopure Chiral Perhydrobenzimidazole and Hexahydroquinoxaline Derivatives
摘要:
Starting from 2-anilino-2-ethoxy-3-oxothiobutyric acid anilides and (R,R)-or (S,S)-trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane, chiral C2-disubstituted perhydrobenzimidazole and trans-4a,5,6,7,8,8a-hexahydroquinoxaline derivatives were obtained depending on the polarity of the solvent.
Spectroscopic Study of the Conformation of 2-Anilino-2-ethoxy-3-oxothiobutyric Acid Anilides
摘要:
An NMR study of the equilibrium mixture of two conformers of 2-anilino-2-ethoxy-3-oxothiobutyric acid anilides 3 allows to estimate their population ratio in solvents of increasing polarity. X-Ray analysis as well as IR spectroscopy confirmed that the conformer present in the solid state is stabilized by two hydrogen bonds. The structural basis of the second conformer observed in solution is the 1,4-type S...O interaction between the sulfur of the thioanilide moiety and the oxygen of the ethoxy group with a distance of 2.878 Angstrom.
Fully saturated piperazin-3-one and quinoxalin-3-one derivatives were prepared by reactions of 2-anilino-2-ethoxy-3-oxothiobutanoic acid anilide with aliphatic 1,2-diamines. An unusual ring expansion of the intermediate 1,3-diazines leads to 1,4-diazines. Moreover, quinoxalin-3-one derivatives from chiral trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane were obtained with diastereoselectivity >95%.
