Hydrazone and ketone

Baldwin has shown that monoalkyl hydraztmes may be used as acyl anion ( RCO ) or a-amino anion equivalents ( CH2NH2 )- An example of Ae former is shown in Scheme 37. Note that the isomerizadon step (26 27) is necessary to avoid reversion to the parmt hydrazone and ketone. ... 

The complimentarity of hydrazone and ketone enolate rearrangements is illustrated in equation (39b). 

Syn selective aldol additions of titanated aldehyde hydrazones and ketone hydrazones have been reported by Reetz. The observed syn selectivity parallels the syn selectivity seen in titanium ketone eno-iates, and the intermediate titanium aldehyde hydrazone derivatives were seen to have ( )c—c geometry (equation 17). 

Phenylhydrazine on exposure to light slowly darkens and eventually becomes deep red in colour salts of the base share this property but to a lesser degree, the sulphate and acetate (of the common salts) being most stable to light. Phenylhydrazine is largely used in organic chemistry to characterise aldehydes and ketones as their phenyl-hydrazones (pp. 342, 345), and carbohydrates as their osazones (pp. 136-140). It is readily reduced thus in the process of osazone formation some of the phenylhydrazine is reduced to aniline and ammonia. On the... 

Aldehydes and ketones may be converted into the corresponding primary amines by reduction of their oximes or hydrazones (p. 93). A method of more limited application, known as the Leuckart Reaction, consists of heating the carbonyl compound with ammonium formate, whereby the formyLamino derivative is formed, and can be readily hydrolysed by acids to the amine. Thus acetophenone gives the i-phenylethylformamide, which without isolation can be hydrolysed to i-phenylethylamine. 

Reagent A is particularly useful for the treatment of the lower aliphatic aldehydes and ketones which are soluble in water cf. acetaldehyde, p. 342 acetone, p. 346). The Recent is a very dilute solution of the dinitrophenylhydrazine, and therefore is used more to detect the presence of a carbonyl group in a compound than to isolate sufficient of the hydrazone for effective recrystallisation and melting-point determination. 

Dinitrophenylhydra2ones usually separate in well-formed crystals. These can be filtered at the pump, washed with a diluted sample of the acid in the reagent used, then with water, and then (when the solubility allows) with a small quantity of ethanol the dried specimen is then usually pure. It should, however, be recrystallised from a suitable solvent, a process which can usually be carried out with the dinitrophenylhydrazones of the simpler aldehydes and ketones. Many other hydrazones have a very low solubility in most solvents, and a recrystallisation which involves prolonged boiling with a large volume of solvent may be accompanied by partial decomposition, and with the ultimate deposition of a sample less pure than the above washed, dried and unrecrystal-lised sample. 

The imides, primaiy and secondary nitro compounds, oximes and sulphon amides of Solubility Group III are weakly acidic nitrogen compounds they cannot be titrated satisfactorily with a standard alkaU nor do they exhibit the reactions characteristic of phenols. The neutral nitrogen compounds of Solubility Group VII include tertiary nitro compounds amides (simple and substituted) derivatives of aldehydes and ketones (hydrazones, semlcarb-azones, ete.) nitriles nitroso, azo, hydrazo and other Intermediate reduction products of aromatic nitro compounds. All the above nitrogen compounds, and also the sulphonamides of Solubility Group VII, respond, with few exceptions, to the same classification reactions (reduction and hydrolysis) and hence will be considered together. 

Reactions of ketones use acetone reactions (i), (ii), (iii) and (vi) as for aldehydes cycZohexanone oxime (J scale), cycZohexanone phenyl-hydrazone, and acetone semicarbazone (J scale) as in 111,74. ... 

Enamines derived from ketones are allylated[79]. The intramolecular asymmetric allylation (chirality transfer) of cyclohexanone via its 5-proline ally ester enamine 120 proceeds to give o-allylcyclohexanone (121) with 98% ee[80,8l]. Low ee was observed in intermolecular allylation. Similarly, the asymmetric allylation of imines and hydrazones of aldehydes and ketones has been carried out[82]. 

Okfm Syntheses. Conversion of aldehydes and ketones to olefins by the base-catalyzed decomposition of -toluenesulfonic (Ts) acid hydrazones (10) is known as the Bamford-Stevens reaction (54,55). 

HydraZones and Azines. Depending on reaction conditions, hydrazines react with aldehydes and ketones to give hydrazones (33), azines (34), and diaziddines (35), the latter formerly known as isohydrazones. 

Pyridazine aldehydes and ketones with the carbonyl group at the ring or in a side chain react in the usual manner. They form hydrazones, semicarbazides, oximes, etc. Side-chain aldehydes can be easily oxidized to pyridazinecarboxylic acids with silver nitrate and side-chain ketones are oxidized to carboxylic acids by treatment with potassium permanganate or hydrogen peroxide. 

Hydrazinopyridazines are easily formylated with formic acid or ethyl formate and acety-lated with acetic anhydride. A-Pyridazinylthiosemicarbazides are obtained from thiocyanates or alkyl- and aryl-isothiocyanates. Hydrazinopyridazines condense with aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes and ketones to give hydrazones. 

Hydroxyalkyl groups attached to pyridopyridazines have been converted to haloalkyl groups by standard methods and the products reacted with amines. Ketones have been converted to hydrazones and oximes and the resulting derivatives deprotected during syntheses. 

Iodine fluoride is a more versatile reagent than molecular fluorine in geminal fluorination of other hydrazones and related compounds under milder reaction conditions [55] Substrates fluorinated include hydrazones of simple cyclic or steroidal ketones (e g, 4 tert butylcyclohexanone, 70%, 3 cholestanone, 70%), W methyl and A/N dimethylhydrazones [R2C=NNH(CH3) 70%, R2C=NNC(CH3)2, 50%], semicarbazones (R2C=NNHCONH2, 25-50%), and 2,4-dinitrophenylhy-drazones [R2C==NNH-C6H3-2,4(N02)2, 25-50%]... 

Phenylhydrazine has been used in the synthesis of indole derivatives. The hydrazones of aldehydes and ketones contain-... 

Although the addition of hydrazine and its derivatives to acetylenic ketones has been studied in considerable detail, their interaction with hydrazones and mono-alkylhydrazones is less well known. Yandovskii and Klindukhova (74ZOR730) have studied the reaction between hydrazones and alkylhydrazones of aliphatic ketones with dipropynylketones and showed that hydrazones of acetone, methyl-ethylketone, and cyclohexane easily add to one of the triple bonds of dipropynylketone to form 4-methyl-1,1,3-trialkyl-2,3-diaza-l,4-nonadien-7-yn-6-ones (yields... 

Several processes for the estimation of aldehydes and ketones have been based on these reactions, some depending on the separation and weighing of the insoluble hydrazone, others on treatment of the substance with an excess of pbenylhydrazine, and estimation of the unused reagent. 

When present in macro quantities, aldehydes and ketones can be determined by conversion to the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone which can be collected and weighed. When present in smaller quantities (10 3M or less), although hydrazone formation takes place, it does not separate from methanol solution, but if alkali is added an intense red coloration develops the reagent itself only produces a slight yellow colour. Measurement of the absorbance of the red solution thus provides a method for quantitative determination. 

An excellent synthetic method for asymmetric C—C-bond formation which gives consistently high enantioselectivity has been developed using azaenolates based on chiral hydrazones. (S)-or (/ )-2-(methoxymethyl)-1 -pyrrolidinamine (SAMP or RAMP) are chiral hydrazines, easily prepared from proline, which on reaction with various aldehydes and ketones yield optically active hydrazones. After the asymmetric 1,4-addition to a Michael acceptor, the chiral auxiliary is removed by ozonolysis to restore the ketone or aldehyde functionality. The enolates are normally prepared by deprotonation with lithium diisopropylamide. 

Excellent simple (90-100%) and induced diastereoselectivities (92-100%) were observed in the syntheses of 3,4-disubstituted 5-oxoalkanoates using, instead, various substituted aldehydes and ketones to prepare the chiral hydrazones. 

Enolates derived from various imino compounds have been sulfinylated in reactions analogous to those shown by equations (14) and (15). Some representative examples are shown in equations 16-18. Here again, these compounds have been utilized in asymmetric syntheses. Addition of sulfinate ester 19 to a THF suspension of a-lithio-N,N-dimethylhydrazones, derived from readily available hydrazones of aldehydes and ketones, leads to a-sulfinylhydrazones in good yield, e.g. 53 and 54 (equations 16 and 17)85,86. Compounds 53 and 54 were obtained in a 95/5 and 75/25 E/Z ratio, respectively. The epimer ratio of compound 53 was 55/45. Five other examples were reported with various E/Z and epimeric ratios. 

The most popular reagent for the formation of aldehyde and ketone derivatives is 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine which forms hydrazones containing strong chromophores. 

SO the product in this case is also the hydrazone, and not the azo compound. In fact, compounds of the type 16 are seldom isolable from the reaction, though this has been accomplished. The cleavage step shown is an example of 12-41 and, when a carboxyl group cleaves, of 12-38. The overall process in this case is called the Japp-Klingemann reaction and involves conversion of a ketone (17) or a carboxylic... 

The product of condensation of a hydrazine and an aldehyde or ketone is called a hydrazone. Hydrazine itself gives hydrazones only with aryl ketones. With other aldehydes and ketones, either no useful product can be isolated, or the remaining NH2 group condenses with a second mole of carbonyl compound to give an azine. This type of product is especially important for aromatic aldehydes ... 

However, in some cases azines can be converted to hydrazones by treatment with excess hydrazine and NaOH. Arylhydrazines, especially phenyl, p-nitrophenyl, and 2,4-dinitrophenyl, are used much more often and give the corresponding hydrazones with most aldehydes and ketones.Since these are usually solids, they make excellent derivatives and are commonly employed for this purpose. Cyclic hydrazones are also known, ° as are conjugated hydrazones. a-Hydroxy aldehydes and ketones and ot-dicarbonyl compounds give osazones, in which two adjacent carbons have carbon-nitrogen double bonds ... 

The addition of KCN to triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl hydrazones (53) provides an indirect method for achieving the conversion RR CO RR CHCN. " The reaction is successful for hydrazones of aliphatic aldehydes and ketones. 

Nitrilimines react with hydrazones of aliphatic aldehydes and ketones to yield addition products 9 which cyclise when treated with palladium charcoal at room temperature to give 1,6-dihydro-j-tetrazines 10 <96JCR(S)174>. 

Wolff - Kishner reduction of aldehydes and ketones. Upon heating the hydrazone or semicarbazone of an aldehyde or ketone with potassium hydroxide or with sodium ethoxide solution (sealed tube), the corresponding hydrocarbon is obtained ... 

The deoxygenation of aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding hydrocarbons via the hydrazones is known as the Wolff-Kishner reduction.28 Various modifications of the original protocols have been suggested. One of the most useful is the Huang-Minlon modification, which substituted hydrazine hydrate as a safer and less expensive replacement of anhydrous hydrazine. In addition, diethylene glycol together with sodium hydroxide was used to increase the reaction... 

Hydrazine is hypergolic with cone, nitric acid [1]. Of a series of hydrazones and azines derived from aldehydes and ketones, only those which decomposed when heated alone were hypergolic with the acid when heated at 12.5°C/min [2], Solid hydrazones formed from various aldehydes with dimethylhydrazine or phenylhydrazine are hypergolic with the acid [3],...
