Abstract

The title compounds, C19H12Br2N2O2 and C18H11Br2N3O2, were synthesized in good yields from condensation reactions of 3-bromo-benzoyl chloride with 2-amino-pyridine or 2-amino-pyrimidine using standard condensation reaction conditions and subsequent column chromatography.

Highlights

  • The title compounds, C19H12Br2N2O2 and C18H11Br2N3O2, were synthesized in good yields from condensation reactions of 3-bromobenzoyl chloride with 2-aminopyridine or 2-aminopyrimidine using standard condensation reaction conditions and subsequent column chromatography

  • E76, 1800–1804 research communications macrocyclic imides (Evans & Gale, 2004; Mocilac & Gallagher, 2013). Both syn and anti types of acyclic imide conformation have been observed in the macrocycles

  • Further studies are needed to demonstrate the ease with which the two distinct conformations can interconvert in acyclic imides

Summary

Structural commentary

From the condensation reaction of meta-BrC6H4COCl with 2-aminopyridine and 2-aminopyrimidine, the benzamide and imide products were obtained and separated by standard column chromatography for each reaction. Using 2-aminopyridine, Brmo and Brmod, (I) were obtained and for 2aminopyrimidine, Brmopz and Brmopzd, (II) were isolated. Brmo and Brmopz are the (1:1) benzamide products, whereas Brmod, (I) and Brmopzd, (II) are the (2:1) acyclic imides. A comparison of acyclic imides and their key torsion angles demonstrates the range of angles observed and the key differences between the syn (carbonyl OÁ Á ÁO separations of $4.5 A ) and anti conformations (OÁ Á ÁO separations of $3.7 A ) in crystal structures (Groom et al, 2016). We have previously used the cisoid and transoid terminology for the disposition of the two C O groups; this is used to describe the orientation and direction of the C O groups/aromatic rings with respect to one another (Mocilac et al, 2018)
