New functionalized maleimides (3‐methylthio‐2,5‐dioxo‐1H‐pyrroles) were obtained by the reaction of ketene dithioacetals with nitromethane or the reaction of nitro ketene dithioacetal with active methylene compounds in the presence of the appropriate base in dimethyl sulfoxide followed by treatment with methanol.
These nakeunudes reacted with various nucleophilic reagents such as election‐rich aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds like dialkylanilines, aminophenols, indoles, indolizines, and cyalazines to give the corresponding 3‐aryl‐ or heteroaryl‐ 1H‐pyrole‐2,5‐diones. Styryl and merocyanie dyes, and polycyclic pyridazine‐diones as chemiluminophors and succinimides were also obtained from these maleimides with good results.
Die Synthese des im Titel genannten Cyclazins (VIIa) sowie des entsprechenden Thiomethyl‐Derivates′(VIIb) gelingt, ausgehend von (I), wie im Formelschema skizziert.
Durch Methylierung der Pyridiniumsalze (I) mit Dimethylsulfat in Schwefelkohlenstoff in Gegenwart von Natronlauge werden die Pyridiniumylide (II) erhalten, deren Methylierung mit Methyliodid zu den Ketenthioacetalen (III) führt.
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.
