Synthesis, characterization, and X-ray analysis of new N,N¡ä-disubstituted-1,4-diazepanes
文摘
The synthesis and structural characterization of six 1,4-diazepanes prepared by condensation of 2,2¡ä-(1,3-propanediyldiimino)diphenols with glyoxal or 2,3-butanedione to give bisbenzoxazolidines and subsequent reduction with BH3-DMS is reported. The new 1,4-diazepanes were obtained in yields between 75 % and 83 % and characterized by NMR, IR, and HRMS. In addition, the crystal structure analysis showed that the seven-membered ring in 1,4-diazepanes (12a, 12e, and 12d) and bisbenzoxazolidines (11a, 11c, 11f) adopt in all cases twisted chair conformation. Compounds 12a and 12e show disorder in the seven member ring, as a result of the conformational flexibility of the seven-membered ring.
