In my diploma work, I carried out syntheses of four 5,6-disubstituted 3-benzoylamino-2H-pyran-2-ones using the well-known "one-pot" two-step method. On the isolated products I attempted to remove the benzoyl protection group from the 3-amino group by heating under acidic conditions. These derivates having free 3-amino group were further reacted with two acid chlorides (succinyl chloride and chlorobenzoyl chloride). In the case of succinyl chloride, I succeeded in synthesizing and isolating a double 2H-pyran-2-one (having two rings connected with an amide bridge).
I then performed Diels–Alder cycloadditions with maleic anhydride on the isolated 2H-pyran-2-ones, synthesizing bicyclo[2.2.2]octene adducts. Further on, I modified these with pyridine-2-carbohydrazide, pyridine-3-carbohydrazide and hydrazine hydrate. The hydrazine hydrate product was additionally modified with [1,1'-diphenyl]-4-carbonyl chloride.
