New synthetic opportunities of conjugated and saturated β-aminoketones were revealed consisting in heterocyclization reactions with the formation of spirochromenes and hydropyrimidinethiones. Alicyclic conjugated Mannich bases under conditions of basic catalysis suffer deamination followed by [4+2]cycloaddition leading to the stereo-and regiodirected formation of difficultly available spirochromene derivatives. Three-component condensation of acyclic and alicyclic Mannich ketones with thiourea and aromatic aldehydes under aprotic acid catalysis afforded functionalized derivatives of pyrimidine-2-thione series. Optimum conditions were found for О,N-heterocyclization of β-aminocarbonyl substrates.
For the first time, arylmethylidene cyclohexanones that are non-symmetrical due to the presence of peripheral substituents were studied in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. It is shown that the interaction with the azomethine ylide generated from sarcosine proceeds regio- and diastereoselectively, with the participation of two non-equivalent parts of the dipolarophile. Also for the first time, β-amino ketones (Mannich bases) were used as dipolarophile equivalents of unsaturated ketones. It was found that cycloaddition occurs diastereoselectively at the generated center.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
