| Tartalmi kivonat: | 6-Hydroxyquinoline and 3-hydroxyisoquinoline as N-containing naphthol analogues were tested in modified Mannich reactions (mMr’s). In the case of 6-hydroxyquinoline, the outcomes of the attempted Mannich reactions were strongly influenced by the amine components. Aminoalkylation of this substrate with reagents 1-naphthaldehyde and N-benzylmethylamine led to the isolation of a diol regarded as a stabilised water adduct of an ortho-quinone methide (o-QM), of which formation can be ascribed to the presence of a hydroxide ion in a relatively higher concentration generated by the bulky and basic amine component with decreased nucleophilicity. The classical Mannich base was isolated as a single product when the amine component was replaced for morpholine, featuring nucleophilicity rather than basic character under the applied reaction conditions. Starting from the isomer substrate 3-hydroxyisoquinoline, independently on the nucleophile (methanol or morpholine) besides the formation of the classical Mannich base, the nucleophilic attack at position one of the heterocyclic substrate was also observed. The DFT analysis of the acceptor molecular orbitals of the potential electrophilic components and the thermodynamics of the assumed-possible transformations demonstrated that this regioselective addition is a feasible process on the investigated heterocyclic skeleton. DFT modelling studies also suggest that besides the steric bulk, the orbital-controlled electronic properties of the aryl group, originating from the aldehyde components, have a strong influence on the ratios and the NMR-monitored interconversions of the C-1-substituted 3-hydroxyisoquinolines and the classical Mannich bases formed in multistep reaction sequences. On the basis of the DFT analysis of the thermodynamics of alternative pathways, a reaction mechanism was proposed for the rationalization of these characteristic substrate-controlled interconversions. |
