New 4-aryl-1,3,2-oxathiazolylium-5-olates: Chemical synthesis and photochemical stability of a novel series of S-nitrosothiols

S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) remain one of the most popular classes of NO-donating compounds due to their ability to release nitric oxide (NO) under non-enzymatic means whilst producing an inert disulphide by-product. However, alligning these compounds to the different biological fields of NO research has proved to be problematic due to the inherent instability of such compounds under a variety of conditions including heat, light and the presence of copper ions. 1,3,2-Oxathiazolylium-5-olates (OZOs) represent an interesting subclass of S-nitrosothiols that lock the –SNO moiety into a five membered heterocyclic ring in an attempt to improve the compound's overall stability. The synthesis of a novel series of halogen-containing OZOs was comprehensively studied resulting in a seven-step route and overall yields ranging between 21 and 37%. The photochemical stability of these compounds was assessed to determine if S-nitrosothiols locked within these mesoionic ring systems can offer greater stability and thereby release NO in a more controllable fashion than their non-cyclic counterparts.

PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF THIOPHENE COMPOUND AND INTERMEDIATE THEREOF

To provide a novel process for producing a 2-aryl-3-hydroxy-4-substituted carbonyl thiophene compound or an intermediate thereof useful as an intermediate for production of medicines and agricultural chemicals. A 2-aryl acetate compound represented by the formula (1): wherein R1 is an aryl group or the like, R4 is a C1-3 alkyl group or the like, and X is a leaving group, is reacted with a thioacetic acid compound to form a thioacetyl compound (3), the thioacetyl compound (3) is reacted with a vinyl ketone compound to form a γ-ketosulfide compound (5), which is cyclized under basic conditions to form a dihydrothiophene compound (6), and the dihydrothiophene compound (6) is oxidized by using an oxidizing agent to produce a 2-aryl-3-hydroxy-4-substituted carbonyl thiophene compound (7).
