Barbituric acid can be considered as a cyclized malonic acid diamide (malonyl-urea). It is therefore a cyclic diketone that may be classified, in the sense of the compounds discussed in Section 12.6, as a coupling component with a methylene group activated by two carbonyl groups in the a- and a -positions. The reaction with arenediazonium salts was studied by Nesynov and Besprozvannaya (1971). These authors obtained coupling products (in good yield) that they considered to be arylhydrazones. Coupling with 4-(phenylazo)benzenediazonium chloride was studied by Chandra and Thosh (1991). The lH NMR spectra of these compounds are consistent with the arylhydrazone structure 12.68.

The 2 1 reaction of 9-BBN with a series of dicarboxylic acids, namely oxalic acid, malonic acid, 2,2-dimethylmalonic acid, and succinic acid, in dimeth-oxyethane gives in some cases dimeric and in other cases macrocyclic (acyloxy)diorganoboranes. This has been proved by IR spectroscopy (all C = O groups are bidentate), B-NMR 5 = 10 ppm) and X-ray crystallography [47]. With oxalic acid two structures are possible (IV and V), of which the first with a five-membered boron heterocycle instead of a four-membered one is the more probable formulation (Fig. 13). 

Belouzov-Zhabotinsky reaction [12, 13] This chemical reaction is a classical example of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, forming a nonlinear chemical oscillator [14]. Redox-active metal ions with more than one stable oxidation state (e.g., cerium, ruthenium) are reduced by an organic acid (e.g., malonic acid) and re-oxidized by bromate forming temporal or spatial patterns of metal ion concentration in either oxidation state. This is a self-organized structure, because the reaction is not dominated by equilibrium thermodynamic behavior. The reaction is far from equilibrium and remains so for a significant length of time. Finally,... 

Bohman and Allenmark resolved a series of sulphoxide derivatives of unsaturated malonic acids of the general structure 228. The classical method of resolution via formation of diastereoisomeric salts with cinchonine and quinine has also been used by Kapovits and coworkers " to resolve sulphoxides 229, 230, 231 and 232 which are precursors of chiral sulphuranes. Miko/ajczyk and his coworkers achieved optical resolution of sulphoxide 233 by utilizing the phosphonic acid moiety for salt formation with quinine. The racemic sulphinylacetic acid 234, which has a second centre of chirality on the a-carbon atom, was resolved into pure diastereoisomers by Holmberg. Racemic 2-hydroxy- and 4-hydroxyphenyl alkyl sulphoxides were separated via the diastereoisomeric 2- or 4-(tetra-0-acetyl-D-glucopyranosyloxy)phenyl alkyl sulphoxides 235. The optically active sulphoxides were recovered from the isolated diastereoisomers 235 by deacetylation with base and cleavage of the acetal. Racemic 1,3-dithian-l-oxide 236...

The dehydration of malonic acid, H02C-CH2-C02H, produces C302 (known as tricarbon dioxide or carbon suboxide). Draw the structure for C302 and describe the bonding in terms of resonance structures. 

Flavonoids are the largest class of phenylpropanoids in plants. The basic flavonoid structure is two aromatic rings (one from phenylalanine and the other from the condensation of three malonic acids) linked by three carbons (Fig. 3.6). Chalcone is converted to naringenin by the enzyme chalcone isomerase, which is a key enzyme in flavonoid synthesis. This enzyme, like PAL and chalcone synthase (CHS), is under precise control and is inducible by both internal and external signals. Naringenin is the... 

Acylated derivatives of urea are referred to as ureides. Acylation of urea with a monoacid produces acyclic ureides, whereas diacylation with malonic acid (a diacid) yields the cyclic structure of barbiturates. The acyclic ureides carbromal and bromisoval, now outdated hypnotics, can be considered ring-opened analogues of the barbiturates to be examined in the next subsection. 

The occurrence of the diester structures of the malonic acid moiety in natural anthocyanin pigments has so far been reported in pigments from flowers of Eichhornia crassipes and chive. Allium schoenoprasum, where the anthocyanin-flavone and anthocyanin-flavonol disubstituted malonate structures were exhibited, respectively (Figure 10.8 and Figure 10.9). In some anthocyanins from flowers of Anemone coronaria, malonic acid is esterified with galactose in one end and tartaryl in the other end. ... 

With diketene, intermediates of type (III) were isolated and subsequently cyclized under basic conditions following step (b). In the case of 3-oxo-carboxylic acid esters or 3-acyl Meldrum s acids, cyclization step (b) immediately follows reaction step (a), if a slight excess of amine is employed (85TH1 87TH1). Note that conversion of (III) to (V) involves the (IH)-enol (Table I cf. 75BSF2731). The relatively low yield in the case of malonic acid ester, as well as the failure of the reaction with the non-enolizable diphenyl phosphinylacetic ester and cyanoacetate, points to the participation of an enol structure of (III). 

C3S2, is a red liquid (mp — 0.5° C, bp 60—70°C at 1.6 kPa (12 mm Hg)) produced by the action of an electric arc on carbon disulfide (1—4). The structure has been shown to be S=C=C=C=S on the basis of its reactions to form malonic acid derivatives and on the basis of physical measurements. It is unstable and decomposes in a few weeks at room temperature it decomposes explosively when heated rapidly at 100—120°C with formation of a black polymeric substance (C3S2)x (5,6). Dilute solutions in CS2 are fairly stable, but photochemical polymerization to (C3S2)x occurs.
