Pyrones: V—The mass spectra and fragmentation mechanisms of some 3(5)-methoxy-4-pyrones
摘要:
AbstractThe mass spectra of methyl kojate (2‐hydroxymethyl‐5‐methoxy‐4H‐pyran‐4‐one), two deuterated analogues and 14 related 3(5)‐methoxy‐4‐pyrones have been studied. These compounds fragment according to a common mechanism, initiated by primary rearrangement of the molecular ion(s). Guidelines which indicate the presence of 3(5)‐methoxy‐4‐pyrones and allow structural determinations to be made from their mass spectra are presented. For the majority of substituents studied, the nature of the substituent has no major effect upon the fragmentation pattern; the cyano group does. The hydroxy counterparts of the above compounds are readily converted for analysis by simple methylation.
Conversion of Formyl into Cyano groups in kojic acid derivatives and analogues
摘要:
It has been revealed that N,N-dimethylhydrazones (1a-c, 3a,b) derived from kojic acid analogs, such as substituted furans (3a,b), 4-pyrones (1a,b) and 4-pyridine (1c), on oxididation with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid afford the corresponding nitriles (2a-c, 4a,b). The method has preparative value. The mechanism of the reaction is presented.
