EP 0 199 393 B1 Description The invention relates to compounds of the general formula I "*1 (CH = CH)n-R3 10 wherein R, represents one up to and including four, the same or different substituents selected from alkyl(1 — 6 C), alkoxy(1— 6 C), hydroxy, halogen, NO2, CF3 or the group — NR5R6, whereby two substituents taken together may also represent a methylene-dioxy group, X represents the group 15 R4 -CH-, — CH2— CH2— or — CH=CH— , 20 n has the value 0, 1 or 2, R3 represents one of the moieties: NH / -c: -c; or 25 N-OH N-OH 30 NH -c = n-n-c; \ 35 NI-L and R2< ^4» Rs and R6 represent H or alkyl(1 — 6 C) and pharamaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds according to the invention have a cardiotonic activity and more particularly they show 40 a very potent increase of the force and energy of the heart-musuclar contractions (positive inotropic effect). Compounds differing from the present compounds in at least the degree of saturation of the molecule are disclosed in EP — A — 0 030 749. These prior art compounds are, however, described for their potent platelet aggregation inhibiting properties, an activity that has no relation whatsoever with the cardiotonic activity found with respect to the present compounds. 45 The compounds of the invention may be prepared by any method for the preparation of analogous compounds. A very suitable starting product for the preparation of the compounds I is a compound of the formula II 50 (CH = CH)n-C-OH 55 wherein R1f R2, n and X have the aforementioned meanings. Compounds of the invention in which R3 represents the moiety 60 /@ — C \ N— OH I 65 R5 EP 0 199 393 B1 may for example be prepared by reacting the compound of formula II or an acid halide or anhydride thereof with an hydroxylamine of the formula: R5 HN (Ml) \ OH 10 in which R5 has the aforementioned meaning, or a reactive derivative thereof, in which the hydrogen atom is replaced by a more reactive moiety, such as an alkali metal. Compounds of the invention in which R3 represents a NH 15 /• — c \ N— OH I 20 Rs moiety may, for example be prepared from a nitrile of the general formula IV: I IV 30 in which Rv R2, X and n have the meanings assigned before by reacting the said nitrile in the usual manner with a compound of the formula: H— |M— OH III R5 wherein R5 has the aforementioned meanings, or a reactive derivative thereof, in which hydrogen (at the nitrogen atom) has been replaced by a more reactive moiety, such as an alkali metal. The nitrile of formula IV may be prepared in the usual manner from the corresponding carboxylic acid of formula II by converting the carboxylic acid into the corresponding carboxamide followed by 40 dehydration of the carboxamide. Compounds of the invention, in which R3 represents a — C=N— NH— C(=NH)NH2 moiety, may most conveniently be prepared from an aldehyde of the formula: 45 . ^ k V by condensation of this compound (V) with amino guanidine or a salt thereof. 50 The aldehyde of formula V can be prepared in various manners. For example the aldehyde may be manufactured by reducing the carboxylic acid of formula II in a well known manner. Another convenient synthesis for preparing the aldehyde consists of a mild reduction of the corresponding nitrile of formula II, e.g. with the aid of a metal hydride such as diisobutylaluminiumhydride. The starting product of general formula II may be prepared by known methods. The attached flow 55 sheet shows the preparation of a compound of formula II, wherein n = 0. Chain length extension to n = 1 and n = 2 can be obtained by converting the carboxylic acid II (n = 0) into the corresponding aldehyde (n = 0) and reacting said aldehyde with the appropriate phosphonate ylid using reaction conditions well known in carrying out the Wittig reaction. Appropriate phosphonate ylids are, for example, cyanomethylene triphenylphosphorane, carboxy- 60 methylene triphenylphosphorane and corresponding (alkyl)esters, and 3-cyano propen(2)-ylidene tri- phenylphosphorane. If necessary, the nitrile — obtained through this Wittig reaction — can be converted in to the corresponding amide or carboxylic acid. Preferably most substituents at the benzo-ring (see R,) are already present in one of the starting products. Nevertheless it is very well possible to convert a substituent R-, into another substituent R, after 65 the above mentioned condensation reactions. EP 0 199 393 B1 Thus, one or more hydroxy groups (F^) may be converted into the corresponding alkoxy groups or halogen in the usual manner. Furthermore two hydroxy groups may be converted into one methylene- dioxy group and an alkoxy group may be hydrolysed to the corresponding hydroxy group. The compounds according to the general formula I may be converted into a pharmaceutically 5 acceptable salt. The compounds of formula I which have an alkaline character may be obtained as the free base or as an acid addition salt. If required, however, the free base I can be prepared from the salt, for example by reaction with an alkaline compound or by means of an ion exchanger, whilst the free base I can be converted in a simple manner into an acid addition salt. 10 Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are derived from acids, such as hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, ascorbic acid, salicylic acid, benzoic acid and methanesulphonic acid. Compounds I having an acidic nature may be converted into a metal salt, preferably an alkali metal salt 15 such as the sodium salt. By the term "alky!(1— 6 C)" as used in the definitions of R1# R4, R5 and R6 is meant a saturated hydro- carbon with 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and preferably 1 to 4 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, iso- propyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert. butyl, pentyl and isopentyl. An alkoxy(1— 6C) group is an alkyloxy group, in which the term alkyl has a similar meaning as above. 20 By halogen in the definition of R-, is preferably meant iodine, bromine, chlorine and fluorine. The most preferred halogens are chlorine and bromine. The said compounds in accordance with the invention can be administered either orally, locally or parenterally, preferably in a daily dose between 0.01 and 50 mg/kg body weight. For this purpose the compounds are processed in a form suitable for oral, local or parenteral administration, for example a 25 tablet, pill, capsule, solution, suspension, emulsion, paste or spray. The oral form is the most preferred form of administration. The most potent inotropic compounds are found amongst theose compounds of formula I in which at least two substituents Ri are present selected from hydroxy or alkoxy or in which at least one methylene- dioxy group (R,) is present, whereby the dimethoxy or methoxy-hydroxy substitution pattern is most 30 preferred. Preferred compounds of formula I are moreover those compounds I in which X is — CH2— CH2— . The position of the double bond between nitrogen and carbon in some of the moieties defined by R3 of formula i cannot be clearly specified, because an equilibrium will prevail between: 35 NH NH2 "< « >"°\ V .... M OLJ 40 NH NH2 C -C = N-N-C^ < > -C = N-N = H NNH.NH2 NH2NH, The preferred R3 moiety in the compounds of the invention is the N-hydroxy-(carbox)imidamide moiety. so The preferred value of n is 0 or 1. Example 1 A. 2-Bromo-5,6-dimethoxy-indan- 1-one: 5,6-Dimethoxy-indan-1-one (50 g) was dissolved in chloroform (1040 ml) and ethanol (1040 ml) and the 55 solution was stirred and heated to 50°C then treated portionwise over 7 hours with cupric bromide (104 g).

Published in final edited form as: Organometallics. 2007 ; 26(2): 281–287. doi:10.1021/om0606643. Reactions of Indene and Indoles with Platinum Methyl Cations: Indene C-H Activation, Indole π vs. Nitrogen Lone-Pair Coordination Travis J. Williams, Jay A. Labinger, and John E. Bercaw Arnold and Mabel Beckman Laboratories of Chemical Synthesis, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125 (U. S. A.) Abstract Reactions of indene and various substituted indoles with [(diimine)PtII(Me)(TFE)]+ cations have been studied (diimine = ArN = C(Me) − C(Me) = NAr; TFE = 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol). Indene displaces the TFE ligand from platinum to form a stable π coordination complex that, upon heating, undergoes C-H activation with first order kinetics, ΔH‡ = 29 kcal/mol, ΔS‡ = 10 eu, and a kinetic isotope effect of 1.1 at 60 °C. Indoles also initially form coordination complexes through the C2=C3 olefin, but these undergo rearrangement to the corresponding N-bound complexes. The relative rates of initial coordination and rearrangement are affected by excess acid or methyl substitution on indole. Introduction Selective C-H bond activation is a potentially valuable approach to synthetic problems in areas ranging from fuels and bulk chemicals to fine chemicals and pharmaceutical synthesis. 1 Studies of C-H activation in our laboratory have focused on models of the Shilov system,2 particularly [(diimine)PtII(Me)(solv)]+ (2, diimine = ArN = C(Me) − C(Me) = NAr; solv = 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE), H2O).3 These cations are capable of activating a variety of II carbon-hydrogen bonds.4 Cations 2 can be generated by protonolysis of (diimine)Pt Me2 species 1 in TFE with aqueous HBF43, 4ab or BX3 (X = C6F5,4cd F5), the latter producing H+ by boron coordination to TFE.4c In deuterated solvent 2 is formed as a mixture of two isotopologs.

  • Using SMILES Strings for the Description of Chemical Connectivity in the Crystallography Open Database
    Quirós et al. J Cheminform (2018) 10:23 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13321-018-0279-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Using SMILES strings for the description of chemical connectivity in the Crystallography Open Database Miguel Quirós1* , Saulius Gražulis2,3 , Saulė Girdzijauskaitė3, Andrius Merkys2 and Antanas Vaitkus2 Abstract Computer descriptions of chemical molecular connectivity are necessary for searching chemical databases and for predicting chemical properties from molecular structure. In this article, the ongoing work to describe the chemical connectivity of entries contained in the Crystallography Open Database (COD) in SMILES format is reported. This col- lection of SMILES is publicly available for chemical (substructure) search or for any other purpose on an open-access basis, as is the COD itself. The conventions that have been followed for the representation of compounds that do not ft into the valence bond theory are outlined for the most frequently found cases. The procedure for getting the SMILES out of the CIF fles starts with checking whether the atoms in the asymmetric unit are a chemically accept- able image of the compound. When they are not (molecule in a symmetry element, disorder, polymeric species,etc.), the previously published cif_molecule program is used to get such image in many cases. The program package Open Babel is then applied to get SMILES strings from the CIF fles (either those directly taken from the COD or those produced by cif_molecule when applicable). The results are then checked and/or fxed by a human editor, in a computer-aided task that at present still consumes a great deal of human time.

  • ABSTRACT RUDD, HAYDEN. Assessing the Vulnerability Of
    ABSTRACT RUDD, HAYDEN. Assessing the Vulnerability of Coastal Plain Groundwater to Flood Water Intrusion using High Resolution Mass Spectrometry. (Under the direction of Dr. Elizabeth Guthrie Nichols). Communities in the North Carolina Coastal Plain (NCCP) depend on safe and reliable groundwater for private well use, agriculture, industry, and livelihoods. Although storm intensity and frequency are predicted to increase in coastal areas, the risk of surficial and confined aquifer contamination from extreme storms is not understood. In September 2018, Hurricane Florence caused extensive flooding across the NCCP for several weeks. The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Groundwater Management Branch had just completed sampling of some wells in their monitoring network when Hurricane Florence made landfall. NCDEQ returned to these wells, particularly those flooded by Hurricane Florence, for post-flood sampling. These groundwater samples were analyzed by NCDEQ for regulated semi-volatile organics with few to any detections of regulated organic contaminants. NCDEQ provided NC State the same sample extracts for analysis by high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). This research reports on the non-targeted and suspect-screening HRMS analyses of groundwater from nested monitoring wells. Some monitoring well sites experienced flooding during the study period, and some did not. The goal of this research was to advance our understanding of coastal aquifer susceptibility to flooding by producing the first comprehensive organic chemical profiles of coastal aquifers and by determining if aquifers have distinct organic chemical profiles that change after flooding events. This study used HRMS analyses to produce the first comprehensive organic chemical profiles of 11 aquifers in the coastal plain.
