Novel synthesis of 2-butyl-5-chloro-3H-imidazole-4-carbaldehyde:A key intermediate of Losartan

A novel method for synthesis of 2-butyl-5 -chloro-3H-imidazole-4-carbaldehyde 2, a key intermediate of Losartan was reported. The compound 2 was synthesized from starting material dimethyl malonate 6 and n-valeronitrile 8 by six steps with an overall yield of 40%. The key step including the reaction of compound 5 with POCl3/DMF followed by hydrolysis to give compound 2 with the yield of 68%.

Coupling Reaction of 4-Chloro-7-H-Pyrrolo[2,3-d]Pyrimidine with 2,3,5-Tri-O-Acetyl-b-D-Ribofuranosyl Chloride

Coupling reaction of 4-chloro-7-H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine with 2,3,5-tri-O-acetyl -β-D-ribofuranosyl chloride under the basic condition was investigated. An abnormal coupling reaction, in which the heterocyclic base attacked at the carbon of 1,2-O-methylidene moiety instead of anomeric carbon of ribose was observed and the structure of products 5a, 5b were identified by NMR and X-Ray diffraction.

Approach to synthesis of novel chiral 3-chloro-2(5H)- furanone and its application in asymmetric reactions

The synthetic method of the novel chiral synthon, 5-/-menthyloxy-3-chloro-2-(5H)-furanone 5a and its application in asymmetric reactions were investigated. 5a is easily obtained in highly optical purity, and acts as a stable acceptor of Michael addition with oxygen nucleophiles in tandem double Michael addition / internal nucieophilic substitution to offer the spiro-cyclopropane derivative containing four stereogenic centers 8, which it is difficult to obtain by routine methods. The synthetic methods for 5a and 8 are reported in detail and the new compounds are identified on the basis of their analytical data and spectroscopic data, such as UV, IR, H NMR,13 C NMR, MS and elementary analysis. The absolute configuration of the interesting spiro-cyclopropanes, spiro [1-chloro-4-(/-menthyloxy)-5-oxo-6-oxa-biscyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,3i(4’-/-menthyloxy-5’-/-menthyloxy- butyrolactone)] 8 was established by X-ray crystallography. This result can provide important synthetic strategy in synthesis of some complex

A highly enantioselective synthesis of 5- (ι-menthyloxy) -4-substituted-3-chloro-2(5H) -furanones

In this paper, stereocontrolled tandem Michael addition-elimination reaction of the novel chiral source, S-(ι-menthyloxy)-3,4-dichloro-2(5H)-furanone, with various thiols and amines has been investigated. A series of new enantiomerically pure compounds, 5-(ι-menthyloxy)-4-substituted-3-cnloro-2(5H)-furanones, were obtained in good yields with d. e.(?)98% under mild conditions.

Mild and Efficient Synthesis of 1-（6-Chloroquinoxalin-2-yl）-2- [4-（trifluoromethyl）-2,6-dinitrophenyl] Hydrazine Derivatives by Microwave Irradiation

Some 1-（6-chloroquinoxalin-2-yl）-2-[4-（trifluoromethyl）-2,6-dinitrophenyl] hydrazine derivatives have been synthesized via both conventional and microwave assisted organic synthesis（MAOS） methods. The MAOS method is more effective on synthesizing these compounds than the conventional method in regard to the higher chemical yields of products（76%-98%） and the shorter reaction time（1-15 min）.

Fast ethylamine gas sensing based on intermolecular charge-transfer complexation

We have investigated the fast ethylamine gas sensing of 2-chloro-3,5-dinitrobenzotrifluoride（CDBF） loaded poly（acrylonitrile） nanofiber based on an intermolecular charge-transfer complexation.Reversible response and recovery were achieved using alternating gas exposure.This system shows a fast ethylamine gas sensing within 0.4 s.
