A Suitable Functionalization of Nitroindazoles with Triazolyl and Pyrazolyl Moieties via Cycloaddition Reactions.

The alkylation of a series of nitroindazole derivatives with 1,2-dibromoethane afforded the corresponding -(2-bromoethyl)- and -vinyl-nitro-1-indazoles. The Cu(I)-catalysed azide- alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition was selected to substitute the nitroindazole core with 1,4-disubstituted triazole units after converting one of the -(2-bromoethyl)nitroindazoles into the corresponding azide. The reactivity in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions with nitrile imines generated in situ from ethyl hydrazono-α-bromoglyoxylates was studied with nitroindazoles bearing a vinyl unit.

A molecular electron density theory study of the mechanism, chemo- and stereoselectivity of the epoxidation reaction of -carvone with peracetic acid.

The epoxidation reaction of -carvone 8 with peracetic acid 9 has been studied within the molecular electron density theory at the B3LYP/6-311(d,p) computational level. The chemo- and stereoisomeric reaction paths involving the two C-C double bonds of -carvone 8 have been studied. DFT calculations account for the high chemoselectivity involving the C-C double bond of the isopropenyl group and the low diastereoselectivity, in complete agreement with the experimental outcomes.

Crystal structure of 2-(4-methyl-benzyl-idene)malono-nitrile.

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C11H8N2, is approximately planar (r.m.s.

N-(3-Chloro-1-methyl-1H-indazol-5-yl)-4-methylbenzene-sulfonamide.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C15H14ClN3O2S, contains two independent mol-ecules showing different conformations: in one mol-ecule, the indazole ring system makes a dihedral angle of 51.5 (1)° with the benzene ring whereas in the other, the indazole unit is almost perpendicular to the benzene ring [dihedral angle 77.7 (1)°].
