4,5-Dihydro-3-methyl-5-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamidinium acetate acetone hemisolvate.
The X-ray structure analysis of the unexpected product of the reaction between 4-(4-methylphenyl)but-3-en-2-one and aminoguanidine revealed the title compound, C(12)H(17)N(4)(+) x -C(2)H(3)O(2)(-) x 0.5C(3)H(6)O, consisting of a protonated amidine moiety joined to a substituted pyrazoline ring at the N1 atom. The amidine group is protonated and the positive charge is delocalized over the three C[bond]N bonds in a similar manner to that found in guanidinium salts. The amidinium moiety of the cation is linked to the acetate anions through four N[bond]H...O hydrogen bonds, with N...O distances of 2.749 (4), 2.848 (4), 2.904 (4) and 2.911 (4) A. The pyrazoline ring adopts a flattened envelope conformation and the substituted phenyl ring is oriented perpendicular to the attached heterocycle. The acetone solvate molecule lies across a twofold rotation axis.
Amino(5-{2-[amino(iminio)methyl]hydrazin-1-yl}-3,5-dimethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methaniminium dinitrate
The reaction of aqueous solutions of aminoguanidine hydrogennitrate and acetylacetone produces the title pyrazole salt, C7H18N8 2+·2NO3 −. The crystal structure is stabilized by a complex N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding network. The difference in the engagement of the two nitrate anions in hydrogen bonding is reflected in the variation of the corresponding N—O bond lengths.
Oxygen-bridged tetrahydropyridines, hexahydropyridines, and dihydropyridones via a Hantzsch-like synthesis with 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)but-3-en-2-one
Substituted oxygen-bridged tetrahydro-2-pyridones and tetrahydropyridines (4) and (7) were synthesized by condensation of 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)but-3-en-2-one (1) with Meldrum's acid (2) and 3-aminocrotononitrile, respectively, in the presence of ammonium acetate. Analogous cyclo-condensations of (1) with methyl 3-amino-2,4-dicyanobut-2-enoate (8) and methyl 3-amino-2-cyanopentene-2-dioate (10) led to oxygen-bridged hexahydropyridines (9) and (11), respectively, of different stereochemistry in the piperidine rings. The dichotomy in the stereospecific routes to these oxygen-bridged heterocycles is discussed. Preparation of 4-aryl substituted dihydro-2-pyridones is also reported.
