RESUMEN
Recently, an unusual elongation of the C-S bond was observed experimentally for some sulfur-containing heterocycles. Using a superior ab initio (SCS-MP2/cc-pVTZ) level of theory, we showed that the phenomenon can be explained by a contribution of a donor-acceptor adduct of a carbene with an unsaturated ligand. One may achieve further elongation of the C-S bond, eventually turning it to a coordinate one, by increasing the stability of each part of the system as, e.g., in the utmost case of spiro adducts with Arduengo carbenes. The effect of carbene stability was quantified by employing the isodesmic reactions of carbene exchange.
RESUMEN
New fluorinated 3,6-dihydropyridines were obtained by the electrophilic fluorination of 1,2-dihydropyridines with Selectfluor®. These 3-fluoro-3,6-dihydropyridines were easily converted to corresponding pyridines by the elimination of hydrogen fluoride under mild conditions. A new approach to the synthesis of methyl 2-(fluoromethyl)-5-nitro-6-arylnicotinates by the fluorination of 3-fluoro-2-methyl-5-nitro-3,6-dihydropyridines or 1,2-dihydropyridines with Selectfluor® has been developed.

The three-step domino reaction, "thiophilic addition of an organomagnesium reagent onto dithioester-beta-elimination of fluoride-[3,3] sigmatropic rearrangement", provides the product of formal regiospecific substitution of a fluorine atom by an allyl group. This mild and versatile methodology was applied to the synthesis of various alpha-allylic and alpha,alpha-bis(allylic) alpha-trifluoromethyl dithioesters.
RESUMEN
Oxidation reactions of stable chalcogenamides with iodine are intriguing due to their broad application in various organic syntheses. In the present study we report on the utilization of N-heterocyclic carbene and cyclic-alkyl-amino carbenes L(1-3): (L(1): = :C[N(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)CH]2, L(2): = :C(CH2)(CMe2)(C6H10)N-2,6-iPr2-C6H3, L(3): = :C(CH2)(CMe2)2N-2,6-iPr2-C6H3) for the syntheses of chalcogenamides L(1-3)=E (E = S, Se, Te) 1-4 and zwitterionic adducts L(1-3)=E-I-I 5-8. The synthesis of compounds 1-4 involved the addition reaction of ligand L(1-3): and elemental chalcogen. Treatment of 1-4 with iodine resulted in the formation of adducts 5-8. Compounds 5-8 are well characterized with various spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray structural analysis.
RESUMEN
This paper offers the results of a synthesis and study of cytotoxicity and the anti-Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) activity of new 2-deoxy-2-chloro-pyranosyl derivatives of 4-tosyl-5-trifluoromethyl-1,2,3-triazole obtained via the addition reaction of the corresponding 2-N-chlorotriazole to the double bond of 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal. Nucleoside mimetics, derivatives of 4-tosyl-5-polyfluoroalkyl-1,2,3-triazoles containing fragments of 3-chloro-tetrahydrofuran, 3-chloro-tetrahydropyran, tetrahydropyran, dihydrofuran, dihydropyran, or acyclic substituents, were also studied. Evaluation of cytotoxicity (trypan blue and MTT methods) and anti-EBV activity (polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method) showed high selectivity indices for the compounds 4a, 4b, 5b, 6, and 8. A total of 15 novel compounds were examined in this study.

The ethyl ester of beta-bromoperfluorodithiocrotonic acid reacts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to give 1,4-difluoro-2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-but-2-ene-1,4-diylidene-2,2'-bis(4',5'-dicarbomethoxy-1',3'-dithiole) (4), a new type of vinylogue of tetrathiafulvalene. The thermal transformations of this compound lead, depending on the temperature, to the formation of the cyclization products: 11,14-difluoro-2,3,8,9-tetra(carbomethoxy)-12,13-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetrathiadispiro[4.0.4.4]tetradeca-2,8,11,13-tetraene (8) or 5,8-difluoro-6,7-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2,3-bis(carboxymethyl)-1,4-benzodithiine (11).
