The Condensation of Aldehydes with Malonic Acid in the Presence of Organic Bases THE CONDENSATION OF ALDEHYDES WITH MALONIC ACID IN THE PRESENCE OF ORGANIC BASES. Part II. The Condensation of Salicylaldehyde. BY AzI~I< ALl KHAN, 1VI.SC., P. N. KURIEN, M.SC., AND K. C. PANDYA, M.A., P~.D., D.I.C., Cl, emieal Laboratory, St. John's College, Agra. Received Decembe~ 8, 1934. KNO~VENAGELI (1898) brought about the condensation of salicylaldehyde with malonic acid in the presence of a minimum quantity of piperidine, with tile formation of coumarin-carboxylic acid. Butt 2 reported (1925) a conden- sation " in presence of piperidine in pyridine solution" with a poor yield of o-coumaric acid. In Part I of this series, it has been shown (Kurien, Pandya and Surange, 3 193~) that (I) the simpler aromatic aldehydes could be condensed with malonic acid in the presence of pyridine alone and without the piperidine, the base, the acid and the aldehyde being in equimolar proportions, and the yields, under suitable conditions, could be up to 96% of theory; that (2) under the same conditions the aromatic hydroxy-aldehydes, including salicylaldehyde, showed no condensation at all; but that (3) the condensation did occur, with yields up to 57~ of coumarin-carboxylic acid, if traces, instead of molecular quantities, of pyridine were used ; and that, lastly, in the condensations of other aldehydes also the trace of pyridine was equally, if not more, efficacious (piperonal giving 100% yield, in contrast with the 76% reported by Dutt2). In the present paper the study of this condensation is extended to the use of other organic bases in place of piperidine or pyridine, such as have not been hitherto tried, viz., lutidine, quinoline, iso-quinoline, a-naptho- quinoline, quinaldine, cinchonine, dimethylaniline, diethylaniline, benzyl- methylaniline, acridine and methylacridine : the aldehyde being in all cases salicylaldehyde. A preliminary experiment, under conditions of maximum yield with pyridine, but without the use of any base or another reagent, was tried. It 1 Knoevenagel, Bet., ]898, 31, 2585. 2 Butt, Jour. Ind.

Soc., ]934, 11,823. 440 T,~e Cozdemaiion o/ AMe@des 441 showed that salicylaldehyde and malonie acid alone, on heating :[or five hours at 100 ~ C. and then keeping overnight, reacted with the formation of the usual coumarin-carboxylic acid (m.p. 187-188~ but the yield was only 11% of the theory. A detailed examination with varying molecular proportions of lutidine added to the acid and the aldehyde, was undertaken. The observations (Table I) show that there is no condensation when the base is from 1 to 0.2 mole. Indeed, when full molar proportions are tried, carbon dioxide is given out as soon as heating is started. As this never happens when the condensation results in the formation of coumarin-carboxylic acid, it is clear that, if there is any condensation in this case, the product should be either eoumarin or o-comnaric acid. None of these is, however, to be found at the end, while the reaction mixture gives back ahnost all the aldehyde, the base and acetic acid. When the base was in lesser proportion, the usual condensation-product made its appearance in increasing amounts till under the most favourable conditiorts, the yield rose to 74%(Table I). The other bases were used on the same principle, the product in all cases being the same coumarin-carboxylic acid, which, though slightly and differently coloured, was always pure enough to give tile same melting point and good analysis. The yields are comparable, in many cases favourably, with the figures obtained by Dalal and Dutt ~ who employed molecular quantities of bases with aldehydes. Though salicylaldehyde does not occur in their table, it is remarkable that methyl- acridine gives them with benzaldehyde their lowest yield (1-3%), and the same base gives us with salieylaldehyde our highest (77%). Knoevenagel thinks that the aldehyde combines first with the base piperidine which then reacts with malonic acid. It has been found while the experiments described in Part I were in progress, that pyridine and malonic acid when warmed together in molecular proportions gave a white solid product which analysis showed to be pyridine malonate and which, after isolation, could also be used irt condensations with benzaldehyde. Ouinoline malonate has also been obtained in the same way and decomposes just above its melting-point, 90 ~ C., giving off carbon dioxide, acetic acid and the base. When, however, it is mixed with salieylaldehyde, the decomposition starts even at 50 ~ C. As the temperature of the condensation is higher, 80 ~ C. or so, no condensation is thus possible. The decomposition is avoided when malonic ester is used in place of 4 Dalal and:Dutt, ,lmtr. fnd. Chem. Soc., 1932, 9, 309. 442 Azhar Ali Khan and others the acid, and then, as other investigations to be reported in Part III show, the condensations take place even when 0.5 mole. of the base is present. Experimental. Condensatio.~ ~,it.hout a base.--5 grams malonie acid (Sch. Kahl Baum, pure for scientific purposes, dried at 100 ~ C., and kept in a desiccator) and 6 c.c. of salicylaldehyde (Merck, pure synthetic) were mixed and kept in a dry flask on the water-bath at I00 ~ C. for 5 hours and then left overnight to cool. The product, acidified with hydrochloric acid, was steam-distilled till the remaining aldehyde was removed. Tile contents of the flask were taken out and cooled; crystals separated, which on drying and after a recrystallisation from alcohol, melted at 187-188 ~ C. The yield was 11% (Table I). Condensations with lutidir~e.--The same experiment was repeated with different proportions of purified and redistilled lutidine and later with different conditions of heating, etc. (Tables I and II). The highest yield was 74%, obtained with 0.05 mole. (0-25 c.c.) of lutidine, on heating at 800 C. for 12 hours and then keeping it for a week at the ordinary temperature. Condensations with quir~oline.--The acid and the aldehyde were heated together on a water-bath till the acid passed in solution. The base was then added and the mixture kept at laboratory temperature (15-20 ~ C.) for some time and then heated on water-bath for definite time (Table III). Condensations in the presence of the remaining bases were carried out in the same way, the results and details are given in Tables IV and V (isoquinoline in Table IV and all the bases in Table V). The identity of the product was confirmed not only by comparison with known samples, but also by analysis. The equivalent weight (by titration against standard baryta) was 190- 5.

H., Wien, Printed in Austria Synthesis and Antidepressant Activity of Some New Coumarin Derivatives Nehad A. Abdel-Latif Natural Compounds Department, National Research Centre, Dokki, Cairo, Egypt; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The coumarin-3-cinnamoyl derivatives 2a-d were prepared via Claisen- Schmidt condensation of 3-acetylcoumarin 1 with different aromatic aldehydes. Cycloaddition reaction of 2b,e with guanidine and thiourea yielded the corresponding aminopyrmimidine 3a,b and thioxypyrimidine derivatives 4a,b, respectively. Compounds 4a,b were condensed with chloroacetic acid or 3- bromopropionic acid to yield coumarin 3-thiazolo-pyrimidine 5a,b and thiazinopyrimidine 6a,b derivatives, respectively. Compounds 4a,b were condensed with chloroacetic acid and aromatic aldehyde to yield the aryl methylene derivatives 7a,b which could be prepared directly by condensation of compounds 5a,b with aromatic aldehydes. Compounds 2a-e were condensed with malononitrile or ethyl cyano acetate in presence of ammonium acetate to yield cyanopyridine 8a,b and cyanopyridone 9a- d derivatives, respectively, which were prepared by condensation of 3- acetylcoumarin 1, malononitrile or ethylcyanoacetate and aromatic aldehydes in presence of ammonium acetate. Condensation of compounds 2a,b,e with o-phenylenediamine in refluxing ethanol led to the formation of 10a-c as intermediate, followed by cleavage by thermolysis to benzimidazole derivative 11 along with compounds 12a-c as mixture, which were obtained directly by fusion of a,&unsaturated ketones 2 with o- phenylene diamine at 200-220°C, while compound 11 could be prepared in pure form by fusion of 1 with o-phenylene diamine at the same temperature.

PART II: EVALUATION AND EXPANSION OF A MODULAR CARD GAME FOR TEACHING ORGANIC CHEMISTRY Christopher A. Knudtson, Candidate for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2019 ABSTRACT In Part I, the synthesis of chenodeoxychoic acid (CDCA) derivatives towards the construction of unique chemical architectures are reported. Building on previously described methods, CDCA based macrocycles with inner cavities have been synthesized and characterized. Attempts toward oxa-Michael coupling of CDCA monomers to form sulfonate ester linked dimmers is described. CDCA was also functionalized with terminal alkynes (pentynyl, hexynyl, and heptynyl) and aryl iodide and cyclized to from the respective macrocycles. These have been coupled together via oxygen-free Sonogashira reaction conditions to form large barrel-like steroidal architectures. These structures were investigated by 1H NMR, 13 C NMR spectroscopy, and HR-MS, and MALDI-TOF spectroscopy. In part II a game to teach organic chemistry, ChemKarta was evaluated as a teaching tool. Analysis of an undergraduate class’s impressions of the game showed that Chemkarta was an easy to learn and enjoyable game, but the amount of information in the game could be overwhelming for some students.

Hydrogenolysis of these conjugate addition products in the presence of a palladium-on-carbon catalyst has been shown to afford the corresponding 3-substituted coumarins, while treatment of O-benzylated Baylis- Hillman adducts with HCl or HI afforded the corresponding 3-(halomethyl)coumarins directly, in up to 94%. The 3-(halomethyl)coumarins have also been obtained in excellent yields (up to 98%) and even more conveniently, by treating the unprotected Baylis-Hillman products with HCl in a mixture of AcOH and Ac2O, obtained from tert-butyl acrylate and various salicylaldehydes. The generality of an established route to the synthesis of coumarins via an intramolecular Baylis-Hillman reaction, involving the use of salicylaldehyde acrylate esters in the presence of DABCO, has also been demonstrated. Reactions between the 3-(halomethyl)coumarins and various nitrogen and carbon nucleophiles have been shown to proceed with a high degree of regioselectivity at the exocyclic allylic centre to afford 3-substituted coumarin products.

  • Summary: Synthesis of Salicylaldehyde and Its Applications Twghs Kap Yan Directors’ College Introduction
    Summary: Synthesis of Salicylaldehyde and its Applications TWGHs Kap Yan Directors’ College Introduction Salicylaldehyde (SA) (C6H4CHO-2-OH) is a useful aromatic organic chemical. It is a common reactant for many synthesis, such as cyclic organic compounds like coumarin and organic ligand such as salan ligand. Salicylaldehyde is also crucial to our daily lives. In A. Ravin’s medical publication, it is mentioned that SA can be used for detection of ketonuria in medical treatment. It also serves as a chelating agent with heavy metal ions such as Copper(II) ion, which is applicable to colorimetric analysis of the concentration of heavy metal ions in water sample. SA is also a precursor in total synthesis of coumarin (C9H6O2), which is a white organic crystal with antibacterial activities. However, salicylaldehyde is not commonly stored in secondary schools’ laboratories. People can only buy a relatively large amount of salicylaldehyde with high price from chemical suppliers. In our research project, we used a simple one-pot reaction to synthesize salicylaldehyde from phenol (C6H5OH), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and chloroform (CHCl3) which are available in school laboratory. The synthesis, separation and identification are carried under a normal secondary school laboratory without using advanced laboratory devices and apparatus. Meanwhile, several applications of salicylaldehyde were also investigated, for instance the synthesis of coumarin, metal complex chelation and the medical detection of ketonuria. Figure 1: Chemical structure of salicylaldehyde Figure 2: Appearance of salicylaldehyde Part 1: Synthesis By Reimer-Tiemann Reaction, phenol reacts with chloroform to form SA under refluxing for 1 hour in 65℃ water bath. This method is simple to carry out with a relatively high yield of SA obtained (~30%).
