Etude des composés d'addition des acides de Lewis - XXXV. Note sur les composés d'addition entre amides et,respectivement, PdCl2 et PtCl2

The adducts of dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, dimethylacetamide and diethylacetamide with PdCl₂ and PtCl₂ have been prepared and the IR. spectra of the compounds in nujol mull or in CH₂Cl · CH₂Cl solution are studied. The lowering of the carbonyl frequency (amide I) shows that the metal is linked by a dative bond to the amide oxygen atom acting as a donor; the lowering is about 33 to 59 cm^?1. The decrease of the frequency of the carbonyl group vibration, observed in these cases as for other addition compounds of Lewis acids, is due to an intramolecular electronic displacement in the direction of the amid oxygen atom.     

Synthèse de sucres aminès ramifiés II. Synthèse et réactions de spiro-aziridines. Communication préliminaire

Treatment of 3-C-cyano-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-O-(toluene-p-sulfonyl)-α-D -allofurannose with AlLiH₄ or RMgX yields spiro-aziridines with two identical substituents on C(3′) (? H, ? CH₃, ? C₂H₅). Reactions of these products and their derivatives are briefly described. If the C(3′) substituents are protons, the aziridine ring is easily opened. In acidic media (HCl), an amino-sugar containing the branched chain ? CH₂Cl is produced; with hydrogenation, a ? CH₃ branched chain results. If the C(3′) substituents are methyl groups, the aziridine ring cannot be opened neither with HCl nor with hydrogen. The acetylated derivative of this latter compound rearranges to the corresponding allylamide with HCl. For both types of spiro-aziridine, the nitrous deamination leads to the corresponding alkene.     

Etude par spectrométrie de masse de l'ionisation de benzonitriles,de phénylacétonitriles et de N,N-diméthylanilines substitués

Molecular ionization potentials for series of compounds of the type X? C₆H₄? CN, X? C₆H₄CH₂? CN and X? C₆H₄? N(CH₃)₂ have been measured using the retarding potential difference technique (RPD. technique). The effect of the various substituents X is better correlated through the electrophilic Brown σ_p⁺ constants than through Hammett's σ_p values. No meta-para orientation effect is observed. For all the disubstituted phenyl compounds studied, the effect of the second substituent is affected by the electron-releasing power of the original substituent. Ionization potentials calculated by using the semi-empirical method of equivalent orbitals are in good agreement with the experimental values.     

Etude des composés d'addition des acides de Lewis XXX [1]. Note préliminaire sur les composés d'addition entre aldéhydes et TiCl4

The adducts of acetic, benzoic, cinnamic, and anisic aldehydes with TiCl₄ have been prepared, and the IR. spectra of the compounds, in the solid state or in solution in CH₂Cl₂, studied. The lowering of the carbonyl frequency shows that the acceptor is linked by a dative bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom acting as donor.     

Interactions Intramolécularies—XVII Calcul des constantes de couplage en RMN du cyclohexane et de cyclohexanes substitués. Comparaison des méthodes de Pople et Santry et des perturbations finies

Proton–proton ³J, ⁴J and ⁵J NMR coupling constants have been calculated for cyclohexane and monosubstituted cyclohexane conformers (substitiuents: Li, CH₃, OH, F) by the two methods mentioned. Comparing the two methods on the basis of group theory, we show the necessity to use the second. The results from this method are compared with those of the literature.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V). V. Stabilité relative des composés des chlorures avec quelques oxydes et sulfures organiques

The adducts of niobium(V) and tantalum(V) chlorides with some aliphatic and cyclic oxides and sulfides, studied by NMR. spectroscopy in CHCl₃, are found to have 1:1 stoechiometry, at room temperature and lower. In the thioxane complex TaCl₅ · C₄H₈OS two species are present with the ligand coordinated by the sulfur atom or by the oxygen atom, respectively, in a proportion which has been determined. The thioxane adduct of niobium(V) chloride, however, is preferentially coordinated by the sulfur atom. There is also evidence for the species 2MCl₅ · C₄H₈OS. The relative basicity of each donor atom in dioxane, thioxane and dithiane is calculated and discussed. In contrast to the nitrile adducts, whose stability was found earlier to be controlled by inductive factors, the steric factors are more important for the ether and sulfide adducts: MCl₅ · Me₂X is more stable than the corresponding MCl₅ · Et₂X (M = Nb, Ta; X = O, S). Both niobium(V) and tantalum(V) chlorides have a soft behaviour, but NbCl₅ is a weaker Lewis acid than TaCl₅ and shows also a softer behaviour.     

Etude de composés d'addition d'acides de Lewis,XXXIV [1] Composés d'addition de benzoquinone-1, 4 avec TiCl4

The adduct 1,4-benzoquine · TiCl₄ has been prepared in CH₂Cl₂ solution at about ?60°. Its IR. spectrum has been recorded at the same temperature. The experimental study of the vibrational frequencies has been completed by the calculation of the fundamental vibrations in the molecular plane, using Wilson's FG method, with slightly simplified models of 1,4-benzoquinone · TiCl₄ (13 masses) and 1,4-benzoquinone · 2 TiCl₄ (14 masses); analysis by use of internal and symmetry coordinates. An assignment of most of the observed bands is proposed and the conclusion is reached that the complex, when solid, is (1,4-benzoquinone · TiCl₄)_n. The force constants F(C? O) are 9,85 · 10⁵ dyne/cm for the quinone and 8,8 · 10⁵ dyne/cm for the disturbed carbonyl bond of the polymerized complex in the model proposed. At ordinary temperature in benzene solution of the components the adduct 1,4-benzoquinone. TiCl₄ · benzene precipitated; with the help of the models, the fundamental vibrations of its IR. spectrum have been assigned.     

Etude des composés d'addition d'acides de Lewis,XXXVII [1] composés d'addition de quelques quinones avec TiCl4, et relation entre les fréquences carbonyle et diverses grandeurs physicochimiques

1:1 or 1:2 solid stoichiometric adducts of TiCl₄ with anthraquinone-1,4, anthraquinone-1,2, naphtacenequinone-5,12, pentacenequinone-6,13 have been prepared. The very important lowering Δω(C?O) of the respective IR. carbonyl frequencies, ranging from ?160 to ?100 cm^?1, shows that the acceptor is linked by a dative bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom acting as donor. On the basis of calculations and various considerations, the reduction of the C?O double bond character is confirmed. Linear relations are found to exist between the oxydo-reduction or the polarographic reduction potential of the quinones, and their antisymetric ω_a(C?O) frequencies, the values of Δω, and the O → Ti vibrations, respectively.     

Etude de composés d'addition d'acides de Lewis. XXXVI [1] Composés d'addition de l'anthraquinone-9, 10 et de l'anthrone avec divers acides de Lewis

Solid stoichiometric adducts of 9, 10-anthraquinone with SbCl₅, ZrCl₄, TiCl₄ SnCl₄, AlCl₃, have been prepared. The very important lowering Δω of the IR. carbonyl frequency, ranging from ?175 cm^?1 for SbCl₅ to ?117 cm^?1 for SnCl₄, shows that the acceptor is linked by a dative bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom acting as a donor; an assignment of most of the fundamental IR. frequencies is proposed for anthraquinone and the mentioned adducts. Similar assignments and interpretation have been made for anthrone and its solid adduct with SbCl₅, ZrCl₄, TiCl₄, SnCl₄, AlCl₃ and ZnCl₂, where the C?O lowerings range from ?164 cm^?1 for SbCl₅ to ?97 cm^?1 for ZnCl₂.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXV[1]. Amines,amino-alcools et aminoalcoyl-monoesters des acides orthophosphorique et sulfurique: thiocarbamylation par l'isothiocyanate d'o-méthoxycarbonylphényle sans ou avec cyclisation intramoléculaire

o-Methoxycarbonyl-phenylisothiocyanate V and primary alkylamines (R″? NH₂) reacted in the appropriate medium yield the corresponding 2-mercapto-3-alkyl-3, 4-dihydro-quinazolinone-4 derivatives VI (the ? NH₂ group is thiocarbamoylated by the ? N?C?S group and then acylated in an intramolecular reaction by the ? COOCH₃ group with elimination of CH₃OH).     

Etude des composés flavoniques et xanthoniques dans les feuilles de Gentiana ciliataL

Study of the flavonic and xanthonic compounds in the leaves of Gentiana ciliata L . Fifteen 1,3,7,8-oxygenated xanthones ( 1 – 15 ) were isolated from the leaves of Gentiana ciliata L. (genus Gentianopsis). Among these were six new glycosides: glucosyl-1-decussatin 6 , glucosyl-1-gentiacaulein ( 8 ), primeverosyl-8-isogentiacaulein ( 9 ), glucosyl-3-isogentiacaulein ( 10 ), glucosyl-1-swertianin ( 12 ) and primeverosyl-7-swertianin ( 13 ). Three known flavone C-glucosides were also found ( 16 – 18 ).     

Etudes sur les composés organométalliques. XI [1]. Action du tétrabutoxytitane sur des solutions de Grignard

The reaction of titanium tetra-n-butoxide with phenylmagnesium bromide inether has been investigated. The species (C₆H₅)₂Mg in the Grignard reagent leads to (C₆H₅)₄Ti, whereas the dimeric species (C₆H₅)₂Mg · MgBr₂ produces an insoluble complex mTi(OBu)₄ · n[(C₆H₅)₂Mg · MgBr₂]. Applied to other Grignard reagents, the use of R₂Mg allowed the preparation of tetrabenzyltitanium, tetracyclohexyltitanium and tetramethyltitanium. Cristalline (C₆H₅)₄Ti and (C₆H₅CH₂)₄ Ti have been isolated.     

Etude des composés d'addition des acides de LEWIS XXIX. Composés d'addition entre acides aromatiques et SbCl5, AlCl3, TiCl4, SnCl4 ou ZnCl2

The adducts of benzoic, p-toluic, mesitoic and cinnamic acids with SbCl₅, AlCl₃, TiCl₄, SnCl₄ and ZnCl₂ have been prepared, and the IR. absorption spectra of the compounds, in the solid state or in solution in CCl₄, studied. The lowering of the carbonyl frequency shows that the acceptor is linked by a dative bond to the carbonyl oxygen atom acting as donor. A calculation, by the Wilson GF method, of force constants and their contributions in potential energy of vibration for monomeric benzoïc acid and its adduct with TiCl₄ confirmed that the carbonyl stretching force constant, and therefore the C?O bond order, is lowered by the formation of the adducts.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXII. Aryl(ou aralcoyl ou alcoyl)amino-2-tétrahydro-m-thiazines ou aryl(ou aralcoyl ou alcoyl)amino-2-dihydro-Δ2-m-thiazines et dérivés

3-Aminopropanol reacts with aryl(or aralkyl or alkyl)isothiocyanates R? N?C?S to yield the corresponding thio-ureas R? NH? CS? NH? (CH₂)₃OH which, refluxed with hydrochloric acid, are cyclized by elimination of water. The cyclization products are identical with the hydrothiazines resulting by elimination of sulfate or phosphate from the sulfuric or phosphoric monoesters of these thio-ureas. The resulting hydrothiazines are either 2-(R-imino)-tetrahydro-m-thiazines (I) or 2-(R-amino)-dihydro-Δ²-m-thiazines (II). Their structure has been established by comparison of their spectra with those of model compounds in one of which the C?N double bond is certainly endocyclic (2-methyl-dihydro-Δ²-m-thiazine), the other presenting an exocyclic C?N double bond (3-methyl-2-phenylimino-tetrahydro-m-thiazine). When R is an aryl group, the C?N double bond is exocyclic (structure I with >C?N? Ar), and one may presume that this structure is stabilized by resonance. When R is an aralkyl or an alkyl group, the C?N double bond is endocyclic (structure II). The nmr spectra were taken with three types of solvent: CDCl₃ or CCl₄; (CD₃)₂SO; CF₃COOH. In CF₃COOH solution the benzylic protons of the hydrothiazine with R = pF? C₆H₄CH₂? couple with NH (J=5,5cps) which confirms the endocyclic position of the C?N double bond in this case.     

Le mécanisme de la réduction polarographique des dérivés ditosyloxylés et son implication en électrochimie préparative

The cleavage of a single SO₂? O bond occurs during the polarographic reduction of a tosyloxy group (p? CH₃C₆H₄SO₂O = TsO) in aprotic medium and intramolecular cyclisation may ensue when a second TsO group is present on the same molecule. The polarographic behaviour of aliphatic ditosyloxy derivatives is discussed on the assumption that oriented vicinal derivatives at the interface assume a conformation which resembles the geometry of the transition state for an intramolecular elimination with anchimeric assistance of one of the tosyloxy groups. This situation favours the electron transfer, whereas the same geometric requirements hinder the intramolecular interaction of the TsO groups of the oriented non-vicinal derivatives. This interpretation agrees well with the fact that the large scale electrolysis of vicinal ditosyloxy derivatives give much higher yield of cyclic ethers than the higher homologues. It is also shown that intramolecular interaction between TsO groups can occur through an intervening double bond in a non-vicinal derivative.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V) IV. Stabilité relative des composés de chlorures avec quelques nitriles

The relative stability constants of the adducts of MCl₅ (M ? Nb, Ta) with acetonitrile, halogenoacetonitriles, pivalonitrile, acrylonitrile and benzonitriles are determined in dilute solutions by NMR. methods. The stability of the adducts is controlled by inductive factors. Chemical shifts and analysis of the new compounds are reported.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXIX [1]. Sur la réaction de l′isothiocyanate d′o-méthoxycarbonyl-phényle avec divers acides et l′acide sérinephosphorique

Amino acids devoid of «leaving groups» on their β carbon atom (neither ? OH: serine, nor ? SH: cysteine) react with o-methoxycarbonyl-phenyl isothiocyanate (I) in the presence of one equivalent of NaOH, in water-dioxane or in ethanol, to yield the corresponding hydroquinazolinone derivatives II which were isolated as free acids. When treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl the hydroquinazolinone resulting from the reaction of L -serine with I undergoes a nucleophilic attack of the carbon bearing the leaving group ? OH by a lone pair of electrons of S; this attack produces the formation of an additional thiazolidine ring, yielding the thiazoloquinazolinone derivative (?)-III. In an analogous reaction DL -serine phosphoric acid treated with I at pH 8–9 yields the corresponding substituted hydroquinazolinone which, boiled in 1N hydrochloric acid, undergoes ring closure to (±)-III by the same mechanism as the serine derivative (leaving group: ? OPO₃H₂). L -Cysteine reacted with 2 equiv. of I and then treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl gives two products: (?)-III produced by the same mechanism as for serine (leaving group: ? SH), and the quinazolinone derivative IV where the ? SH group is also thiocarbamoylated.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V): VI. Réactions d'échange des composés du chlorure de niobium(V) avec quelques nitriles

The ligand exchange reactions NbCl₅·?N + RCN* ? NbCl₅ · RCN* + RCN are studied by NMR. spectroscopy for R = Me₃C, Me, FCH₂, CICH₂, BrCH₂, ICH₂. The reaction is of zero order in RCN and of first order in NbCl₅ · RCN and thus a dissociative mechanism is suggested for all the ligands studied. The enthalpies and entropies of activation are determined over 50° to 90° temperature ranges. There is a linear correlation between ΔG≠ and the free enthalpy of formation of NbCl₅ RCN. However this correlation is shown to hold only for series of adducts having the same donor group.     

Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire en phase nématique. Exploration de la barrière d'empêchement à la libre rotation de la monofluoroacétone

The NMR spectra of monochloro-, monobromo- and monofluoroacetone (CH₃? CO? CH₂X with X = Cl, Br, F) oriented in a nematic phase have been measured and the direct dipolar coupling constants determined. The barrier to internal rotation for the CH₂F group has been studied for fluorine compound using various hypotheses. The best agreement with IR data has been obtained using the potential equation V(θ) = Σ_n V_n × (1 – cos nθ)/2 and a Boltzmann distribution of the CH₂F group (V₁ = 250 ± 50 cal.mol^?1, V₂ = 1650 ± 100 cal.mol^?1, V₃ = ?1000 ± 100 cal.mol^?1).     

Dérivés Alléniques du Phosphore. Influence de l'État de Coordination du Phosphore et de la Nature des Radicaux Liés au Phosphore sur les Signes de J(P?H)

The signs of the phosphorus-proton coupling constants in various allenic organophosphorus compounds have been determined by either analysis of the AB₂X spectra or double resonance. Probable absolute signs have been obtained by taking ³J(P? H) as positive. In allenic phosphine oxides, the following signs are obtained: ²J(P? H) +ve, ³J(P? H) +ve, ⁴J(P? H) ?ve, ⁵J(P? H) +ve and the ⁴J(P? H) coupling constant varies mostly with the inductive effect of the substituents bound to the phosphorus atom. In allenic phosphines, these sings are: ²J(P? H) +ve, ³J(P? H) +ve, ⁴J(P? H) ?ve and +ve and the ⁴J(P? H) coupling constant varies with both the inductive and resonance effects to the substituents. This coupling constant is negative except when the phosphorus atom is bound to groups which are electron-donating by resonance effects. These results are discussed in relation to the pπ? dπ bonding in phosphine.
