A concise two step synthesis of tetrazole containing macrocycles from readily accessible starting materials is presented. The first step comprises a chemoselective amidation of amino acid derived isocyanocarboxylicacid esters with unprotected symmetrical diamines to afford diverse α-isocyano-ω-amines. In the second step, the α-isocyano-ω-amines undergo an Ugi tetrazole reaction to close the mac...

tetrazole-containing compounds have been the subject of much recent research because of theirpotential as high energy density materials (hedms). in this work, theoretical studies on the 1htetrazolylderivatives of tetrahedrane were done at the density functional theory (dft) method withthe 6-31g(d) basis set without any symmetrical restrictions in order to find the structural andenergetically pr...

An improved procedure is described for the efficient and high-yield (76-91%) synthesis of nucleoside diphosphate sugars from the readily available nucleoside 5'-monophosphomorpholidate and sugar 1-phosphate in the presence of 1H-tetrazole. Comparative kinetic investigations by means of (31)P NMR spectroscopy with different additives (1,2,4-triazole, acetic acid, N-hydroxysuccinimide, 4-(dimethy...

Title of Dissertation: Probing the Dynamics of Ultra-Fast Condensed State Reactions in Energetic Materials Nicholas W. Piekiel, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Directed By: Michael R. Zachariah, Professor Department of Mechanical Engineering and Chemistry Energetic materials (EMs) are substances with a high amount of stored energy and the ability to release that energy at a rapid rate. Nanothermites...

A new series of novel heterocyclic compounds containing both tetrazoles and piperidine nuclei together, namely, 1-(1-aryl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2-(piperidin-1-yl)ethanone (22-28), were synthesized by the treatment of the respective 2-chloro-1-(1-aryl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethanone (15-21) with piperidine in acetonitrile for 6 h. A series of novel tetrazole substituted piperidine derivatives were synthes...

Eight different derivatives of substituted 5-phenyl-1-(5-substituted phenyl) -4,5-dihydro1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1H-tetrazole (4a-h) were synthesized by reacting the chalcones with hydrazine hydrate in presence of glacial acetic. The chemical structures were confirmed by means of FT-IR, H-NMR, mass spectra and elemental analysis. The compounds were screened for analgesic activity by acetic acid induce...

Abstract A series of tetrazole-linked dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines is synthesized through a short sequence involving an Ugi tetrazole reaction. The intermediate undergoes potassium carbonate mediated SNAr cyclization, followed by oxidation to afford the target tricyclic heterocyclic scaffold. optimization, scope and limitations this two-step efficient methodology are investigated. 1000-member li...

This study presents the preparation of the novel nitrogen-rich compound 5-(5-amino-2H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-1H-tetrazole (5) from commercially available chemicals in a five step synthesis. The more energetic derivatives with azido (6) and nitro (7) groups, as well as a diazene bridge (8) were also successfully prepared. The energetic compounds were comprehensively characterized by various means, ...

Recently described biphenyl analogues of the antituberculosis drug PA-824 displayed improved potencies against M. tuberculosis but were poorly soluble. Heterobiaryl analogues of these, in which the first phenyl ring was replaced with various 5-membered ring heterocycles, were prepared with the aim of identifying potent new candidates with improved aqueous solubility. The compounds were construc...

In search of new cytotoxic derivatives based on the lupane scaffold, seco-lupane azides were coupled with a number alkynes under 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC) conditions to afford 1,2,3-triazoles. Phenylalkynes having different substituents at para position used as starting materials. Similarly, coupling thiocyanate sodium azide gave 5-thiotetrazole. The cytotoxicity thirteen investigated, ...
