An efficient synthesis of: N -nitrosamines under solvent, metal and acid free conditions using tert -butyl nitrite

Synthesis of various N-nitroso compounds from secondary amines is reported using tert-butyl nitrite (TBN) under solvent free conditions. Broad substrate scope, metal and acid free conditions, easy isolation procedure and excellent yields are few important features of this methodology. The acid labile protecting groups such as tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) and tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) as well as sensitive functional groups such as phenols, olefins and alkynes are found to be stable under the standard reaction conditions. Besides N-nitrosation, TBN is also found to be an efficient reagent in few other transformations including aryl hydrazines to aryl azides and primary amides to carboxylic acids under mild conditions.

Synthesis and quantitative structure-activity relationships of antibacterial 1-(substituted benzhydryl)-4-(5-nitro-2- furfurylideneamino)piperazines

1-Benzhydryl-4-(5-nitro-2-furfurylideneamino)piperazine and 11 substituted analogs were prepared and examined for in vitro antimicrobial activity. The compounds were active against Bacillus cereus 7, Bacillus megaterium 122, Bacillus subtilis 104, Clostridium perfringens 13, and the tetracycline-resistant Clostridium perfringens 37. Regression analyses on the antibacterial activity data based on the Hansch approach, using π, π2, and σ parameters, yielded several statistically significant correlation equations. 1-Benzhydryl-4-(5-nitro-2-furfurylideneamino)piperazine stopped the protein and DNA syntheses in C. perfringens 13, as indicated by precipitable radioactivity. The compound, however, showed no effect on the cell wall synthesis in the bacteria.
