Reaction of Endic Anhydride with Hydrazines and Acylhydrazines

Reaction products of bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-endo,endo-5,6-dicarboxylic (endic) acid with hydrazines and acylhydrazines were prepared. The features distinguishing of these reactions from those with amines were revealed. The compounds obtained were characterized by 1H, 13C NMR, and IR spectra. The assignment of the signals in NMR spectra was done with the use of quantum-chemical calculations of chemical shifts performed by the density functional method. The structure of one among compounds synthesized, N-(m-hydroxybenzoylamino)-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-endo,endo-5,6-dicarboxamide, was proved by X-ray diffraction analysis.
