Acetone: acylation

A further antimony derivative, namely, bis-(para-methoxyphenyl) boryl hexachloroantimonate [prepared in situ from antimony pentachlo-ride and bis-(para-methoxyphenyl)boryl chloride] can be utilized (25% mol) in the acylation of anisole and veratrole with acetone acyl enolates in 52%-88% yield. The major advantage of the method resides in the possibility of performing Friedel-Crafts acylation at room temperature in a reaction medium that can be kept almost neutral throughout the reaction, acetone being the only co-product. 

The acylation of ketones with esters an example of the Clalsen condensation is generally effected with a basic reagent, such as sodium ethoxide, sodium, sodamide or sodium hy dride. Thus acetone and ethyl acetate condense in the presence of sodium ethoxide to yield acetylacetone ... 

Norethindrone may be recrystakhed from ethyl acetate (111). It is soluble in acetone, chloroform, dioxane, ethanol, and pyridine slightly soluble in ether, and insoluble in water (112,113). Its crystal stmcture has been reported (114), and extensive analytical and spectral data have been compiled (115). Norethindrone acetate can be recrystakhed from methylene chloride/hexane (111). It is soluble in acetone, chloroform, dioxane, ethanol, and ether, and insoluble in water (112). Data for identification have been reported (113). The preparation of norethindrone (28) has been described (see Fig. 5). Norethindrone acetate (80) is prepared by the acylation of norethindrone. Norethindrone esters have been described ie, norethindrone, an appropriate acid, and trifiuoroacetic anhydride have been shown to provide a wide variety of norethindrone esters including the acetate (80) and enanthate (81) (116). 

Enzymatic acylation reactions offer considerable promise in the synthesis of specific ester derivatives of sucrose. For example, reaction of sucrose with an activated alkyl ester in /V, /V- dim ethyl form am i de in the presence of subtilisin gave 1 -0-butyrylsucrose, which on further treatment with an activated fatty acid ester in acetone in the presence of Hpase C. viscosum produced the 1, 6-diester derivative (71,72). 

Mixed aiihydiosulfides can be leaddy obtained by adding an acetone solution of the xanthate to an acetone solution of the acyl halide at —35 C (53) ... 

A number of steroids have been regioselectively acylated ia a similar manner (99,104). Chromobactenum viscosum hpase esterifies 5a-androstane-3P,17P-diol [571-20-0] (75) with 2,2,2-triduoroethyl butyrate ia acetone with high selectivity. The hpase acylates exclusively the hydroxy group ia the 3-position giving the 3P-(monobutyryl ester) of (75) ia 83% yield. In contrast, bacillus subtilis protease (subtihsia) displays a marked preference for the C-17 hydroxyl. Candida iylindracea]i 2Lse (CCL) suspended ia anhydrous benzene regioselectively acylates the 3a-hydroxyl group of several bile acid derivatives (104). 

Enol esters are another useful family of acylating agents. The acetate of the enol form of acetone, isopropenyl acetate, is the most commonly used member of this group of... 

Besides acetophenone, this reaction was also applied to p-chloro- andp-methoxyacetophenone, and even to an aliphatic ketone, acetone (although the yield was stated to be only half as large as that obtained from mesityl oxide, i.e., less than 30%, Dorofeenko and co-workers reported a 45% yield of 2,4,6-trimethylpyrylium perchlorate from acetone, acetic anhydride, and perchloric acid), and is the standard method for preparing pyrylium salts with identical substituents in positions 2 and 4. The acylating agent may be an anhydride in the presence of anhydrous or hydrated ferric chloride, or of boron fluoride, or the acid chloride with ferric chloride.Schneider and co-workers ... 

Piperazine NH group of 9-fluoro-10-(l-piperazinyl)-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7//-pyrido[l,2,3-<7e]-l,4-benzothiazine-6-carboxylate was reacted with 4-nitrophenylsulfonyl chloride, 2,6-dichloropyrazine, 2,6-dichloropyridine in DMF in the presence of pyridine, and with 4-nitrophenyl isothiocyanate in aqueous acetone in the presence of KOH (01MIP13). A side chain amino group on a 2,3-dihydro-7//-pyrido[l,2,3- fe]-l,4-benzothiazin-7-one skeleton was acylated (OOMIPIO). 

This sequence is equally applicable to keto esters. Thus, condensation of guanidine with ethyl acetoacetate gives the pyrimidone, 134. Elaboration as above gives the pyrimidine, IJ5 acylation with the sulfonyl chloride (88) followed by hydrolysis yields sulfamerazine (107). Reaction of guanidine with beta dicarbonyl compounds gives the pyrimidine directly. Condensation of the base with acetonyl acetone affords the starting amine for sulfadimidine (108). ... 

Condensation of ethyl acetoacetate with phenyl hydrazine gives the pyrazolone, 58. Methylation by means of methyl iodide affords the prototype of this series, antipyrine (59). Reaction of that compound with nitrous acid gives the product of substitution at the only available position, the nitroso derivative (60) reduction affords another antiinflammatory agent, aminopyrine (61). Reductive alkylation of 61 with acetone in the presence of hydrogen and platinum gives isopyrine (62). Acylation of 61 with the acid chloride from nicotinic acid affords nifenazone (63). Acylation of 61 with 2-chloropropionyl chloride gives the amide, 64 displacement of the halogen with dimethylamine leads to aminopropylon (65). ... 

A variant on this structure, dioxyline, has much the same activity as the natural product but shows a better therapeutic ratio. Reduction of the oxime (113) from 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl-acetone (112) affords the veratrylamine homolog bearing a methyl group on the amine carbon atom (114). Acylation of this with 4-ethoxy-3-methoxyphenyl acetyl chloride gives the corresponding amide (115). Cyclization by means of phosphorus oxychloride followed by dehydrogenation over palladium yields dioxyline (116). ... 

To this there is added dropwise with continued cooling and stirring a solution of ethyl chlorocarbonate (0.1 mol). After approximately 10 minutes, the acylating mixture is cooled to about -5°C and then is slowly added to a stirred ice-cold mixture of 6-aminopenicillanic acid 0.1 mol), 3% sodium bicarbonate solution (0.1 mol) and acetone. This reaction mixture is allowed to attain room temperature, stirred for an additional thirty minutes at this temperature and then is extracted with ether.

The iron complex 16 in anhyd benzene was treated with an alkyl halide (excess) and anhyd NaHC03 (1 mol equiv) and the mixture was stirred at 20 "C for 20 h. For acylation, an acyl chloride (1 mol equiv) and anhyd NaHCO, were employed and the mixture was stirred at 20CC for 1-2 h. For decomplexation, the TV-substituted iron complex 17 and a 20-fold molar excess of freshly sublimed Me3NO in acetone were stirred for 20 h at 20 C and the reaction mixture was worked up by chromatography to give 18. 

The a-alkoxy iron-acyl complex 5 may be deprotonated to generate the lithium enolate 6, which undergoes a highly diastereoselective aldol reaction with acetone to generate the adduct 7 as the major product. Deprotonation of acetone by 6 is believed to be a competing reaction 30% of the starting complex 5 is found in the product mixture48 40.

Another example of an enzymatic one-pot multiple Diels-Alder reaction is illustrated in Table 4.20 [83]. Racemic furfuryl alcohols 130 in the presence of ethoxy vinyl methyl fumarate 131 and enzyme TOYOBO-LIP undergo enzymatic acylation followed by kinetic enzymatic resolution to give the acyl derivatives 132 which then affords the adducts 133 and 134 by intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction 3-methyl-furfuryl alcohol 130 (R = Me) in acetone gives the best results. 

In 1992, Oda et al. reported a one-pot synthesis of optically active cyanohydrin acetates from aldehydes, which were converted to the corresponding racemic cyanohydrins through transhydrocyanation with acetone cyanohydrin, catalyzed by a a strongly basic anion-exchange resin [46]. The racemic cyanohydrins were acetylated by a lipase from P. cepacia (Amano) with isopropenyl acetate as the acyl donor. The reversible nature of the base-catalyzed transhydrocyanation enabled continuous racemization of the unreacted cyanohydrins, thereby effecting a total conversion (Figure 4.21). 

We initially tested Candida antarctica lipase using imidazolium salt as solvent because CAL was found to be the best enzyme to resolve our model substrate 5-phenyl-l-penten-3-ol (la) the acylation rate was strongly dependent on the anionic part of the solvents. The best results were recorded when [bmim][BF4] was employed as the solvent, and the reaction rate was nearly equal to that of the reference reaction in diisopropyl ether. The second choice of solvent was [bmim][PFg]. On the contrary, a significant drop in the reaction rate was obtained when the reaction was carried out in TFA salt or OTf salt. From these results, we concluded that BF4 salt and PFg salt were suitable solvents for the present lipase-catalyzed reaction. Acylation of la was accomplished by these four enzymes Candida antarctica lipase, lipase QL from Alcaligenes, Lipase PS from Burkholderia cepacia and Candida rugosa lipase. In contrast, no reaction took place when PPL or PLE was used as catalyst in this solvent system. These results were established in March 2000 but we encountered a serious problem in that the results were significantly dependent on the lot of the ILs that we prepared ourselves. The problem was very serious because sometimes the reaction did not proceed at all. So we attempted to purify the ILs and established a very successful procedure (Fig. 3) the salt was first washed with a mixed solvent of hexane and ethyl acetate (2 1 or 4 1), treated with activated charcoal and passed into activated alumina neutral type I as an acetone solution. It was evaporated and dried under reduced...
