Condensed Isoquinolines. 16. Enamine Properties of Benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one in Terms of Its Acylation Reactions

A study has shown that the acylation of benzo[4,5]imidazol[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one occurs at N₍₅₎ or at C₍₆₎ depending on the nature of the acylating reagent and the reaction conditions. It was found that principally C-acylation takes place in the absence of base. The reaction with -halo-substituted carboxylic acid chlorides leads to the formation of C-acylated products which are converted to derivatives of the novel heterocyclic system 7H-2a,6b-diazabenzo[b]cyclopenta[l,m]fluorene-1,7(2H)-dione in the presence of base.     

Electrophilic substitution in benzo[b]thieno[2,3-c]pyridines. Nitration

A study was carried out on the nitration of substituted benzo[b]thieno[2,3-c]pyridines. Depending on the conditions, either one nitro group is introduced at C₍₆₎ or two nitro groups are introduced at C₍₆₎ and C₍₈₎. If C₍₆₎ is blocked, a mixture of products is formed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 706–709, May, 1993.

Heterodiamantanes and Structurally Related Compounds. Part III. The Pentacyclic C₁₁-Diethers 5, 13-Dioxapentacyclo [6.5.0.0^2,6.0^3,12.0^4,9]tridecane, 4, 13-Dioxapentacyclo [6.4.1.0^2,7.0^3,10.0^5,9]tridecane, and 3, 10-Dioxapentacyclo [7.3.1.0^2,7.0^4,12.0^6,11]tridecane In connection with the studies on heterodiamantanes and structurally related compounds the three novel pentacyclic diethers 3 – 5 were prepared starting from the cyclopentadienone dimer 6 . All four compounds have as common features a central carbocyclic 6-membered ring with four axial alkyl substituents and two oxygen functions in 1, 4 position. The required eleventh C-atom was introduced by dichlorocarbene addition either to 6 ( → 7 ) (Scheme 2) or to 29 ( → 28 ) (Scheme 4). Diether 3 was obtained by reduction of 26 (Scheme 2), a suitable precursor prepared either by intramolecular addition ( 24 → 26 ; Scheme 2) or substitution ( 30 → 26 , 31 → 26 ; Scheme 4), as well as by direct substitution ( 44 → 3 , 42 → 3 ; Scheme 5). Diether 4 was the product of a direct substitution ( 39 → 4 , 36 → 4 ; Scheme 5). The synthesis of diether 5 was achieved from the addition product 51 (resulting from the alcohols 47 and 48 ; Scheme 6). Diether 4 is the thermodynamically least stable of the three diethers 3 – 5 . It was easily isomerized to 5 on treatment with concentrated sulfuric acid in benzene whereas 3 and 5 remained unchanged under these conditions.

Synthesis and Coordination of 2-Acetylimino-1,3-dimethylimidazoline. The Crystal Structure of [Cu₄I₄(C₇H₁₁N₃O)₂] 2-Acetylimino–1,3-dimethylimidazoline ( 2 , ImNAc) obtained from 1,3-dimethyl-2-iminoimidazoline ( 1 ) and acetyl chloride forms with CuI the stepped cubane type complex [Cu₄I₄(ImNAc)₂] ( 3 ); the X-ray structure of 3 is reported.     

Reactions of isonitriles with [Fe3(CO)12] and [Ru3(CO)12] monitored by electrospray mass spectrometry: structural characterisation of [Fe3(CO)10(CNPh)2] and [Ru4(CO)11(μ3-η-CNPh)2(CNPh)]

The reactions of [Fe₃(CO)₁₂] or [Ru₃(CO)₁₂] with RNC (R=Ph, C₆H₄OMe-p or CH₂SO₂C₆H₄Me-p) have been investigated using electrospray mass spectrometry. Species arising from substitution of up to six ligands were detected for [Fe₃(CO)₁₂], but the higher-substituted compounds were too unstable to be isolated. The crystal structure of [Fe₃(CO)₁₀(CNPh)₂] was determined at 150 and 298 K to show that both isonitrile ligands were trans to each other on the same Fe atom. For [Ru₃(CO)₁₂] substitution of up to three COs was found, together with the formation of higher-nuclearity clusters. [Ru₄(CO)₁₁(CNPh)₃] was structurally characterised and has a spiked-triangular Ru₄ core with two of the CNPh ligands coordinated in an unusual μ₃-η² mode.     

Organic‐Inorganic Hybrids: Preparation and Structural Characterization of (Bu4N)2[Mo6O17(NAr)2] and (Bu4N)2[Mo6O18(NAr)] (Ar = o‐CH3C6H4)

In the presence of N, N′‐dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), (Bu₄N)₂[Mo₆O₁₈(NAr)] ( 1 ) and (Bu₄N)₂[Mo₆O₁₇(NAr)₂] ( 2 ), Ar = o‐CH₃C₆H₄, have been synthesized via the reaction of [α‐Mo₈O₂₆]^4— with o‐toluidine. If the hydrochloride salt of o‐toluidine was added into the reactive mixture, only the monofunctionalized imido derivative of [Mo₆O₁₉]^2— was obtained; the bifunctionalized derivative of [Mo₆O₁₉]^2— was exclusively synthesized in the presence of non‐protonated o‐toluidine. The molecular and crystal structures of the hybrid compounds 1 and 2 were determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction, and their UV, IR and NMR spectra were compared. Additionally, a possible reaction mechanism was proposed.     

Condensed Isoquinolines. 17. Enamine Properties of Benzimidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one in Alkylation Reactions

The alkylation of benzimidazo[1,2-b]isoquinolin-11(5H)-one has been studied. This occurs at N₍₅₎ or C₍₆₎ depending on the type of alkylating agent and the reaction conditions. It was shown that C₍₆₎ alkylation is effected in reactions with reactive alkyl halides. A repeat alkylation occurs preferentially at the same position. Interaction with o-xylylidene dibromide leads to spiro[benzimidazo[1,2-b]-isoquinolin-6,2'-indan]-11-one and 1,6-dihydro-11H-6a,11b-diazobenzo[b]benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2,3-l,m]fluoren-11-one, which are derivatives of new heterocyclic systems.     

离子液体[C2mim][GaCl4]的溶解热研究

在干燥氩气氛下, 用等摩尔的高纯无水GaCl3和[C2mim][Cl](氯化1-甲基-3-乙基咪唑)直接搅拌混合, 制备了淡黄色透明的的离子液体[C2mim][GaCl4] (1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chlorogallate) . 在298.15 K下, 利用具有恒温环境的溶解反应热量计, 测定了这种离子液体的不同浓度摩尔溶解焓 . 针对[C2mim][GaCl4]溶解于水后即分解的特点, 在Pitzer电解质溶液理论基础上, 提出了确定这种离子液体标准摩尔溶解焓的新方法, 得到了[C2mim][GaCl4]在水中的标准摩尔溶解焓, ＝－132 kJ•mol－1, 以及Pitzer焓参数组合: ＝－0.1373076和 ＝0.3484209. 借助热力学循环和Glasser离子液体晶格能理论, 用Ga3＋, Cl－和[C2mim]—的离子水化焓数据以及本文得到的[C2mim][GaCl4]标准摩尔溶解焓, 估算了配离子4Cl－(g)解离成Ga3＋(g)和4Cl－(g)的解离焓ΔHdis([GaCl4]-)≈5855 kJ•mol－1. 这个结果揭示了离子液体[C2mim][GaCl4]的标准摩尔溶解焓绝对值并不很大的原因, 即是很大的离子水化焓被很大的[GaCl4]－(g)的解离焓相互抵消了.     

Nanoscale ensembles using building blocks inspired by the [FeFe]-hydrogenase active site

The hydrogenase model [Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CN)₂(CO)₄]²⁻ was employed as a molecular tecton for the construction of supramolecular aggregates. IR spectroscopy indicated that cyanide bridged aggregates are formed when [Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CN)₂(CO)₄]²⁻ was treated with Lewis acids such as Zn(tetraphenylporphyrinate), [Cu(NCMe)(2,2′-bipyridine)]PF₆ and [Cu(NCMe)₄]PF₆. Condensation of [Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CN)₂(CO)₄]²⁻ with the tritopic Lewis acid [Cp¹Rh]²⁺ afforded the novel expanded tetrahedron cage, {[Fe₂(S₂C₃H₆)(CN)₂(CO)₄]₆[Cp¹Rh]₄}⁴⁻. The tetrahedron cage was characterized crystallographically as the PPN salt.     

The synthesis and transformations of 2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-isothiocyanatopyridine. Pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidines and some azolopyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidines

2-Ethoxycarbonyl-3-isothiocyanatopyridine ( 2 ), prepared from 3-amino-2-ethoxycarbonylpyridine ( 1 ) by the thiophosgene method, was converted with nucleophiles into pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivatives 6–11 and 25–30 either directly, or through thiourethane 3 . Tricyclic systems 18 and 19 were obtained from 3 , and tricyclic systems 12–17 from pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine derivative 11 . Pyrrole reacted with 2 at C₂ to give 20 , and by further cyclization 21 and 22 .     

Two New Modifications of [P(C6H5)4]2[Cu2I4]

Single crystals of two new modifications of [P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄] were obtained by reaction of granulated copper with iodine and [P(C₆H₅)₄]I in dry acetone under nitrogen atmosphere. They crystallise monoclinically, space group P2₁/n (No. 14), a = 11.550(6), b = 7.236(2), c = 27.232(13) Å, β = 98.13(3)°, V = 2253(2) ų, and Z = 2 ([P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄]-C), and space group Cc (No. 9), a = 17.133(5), b = 15.941(5), c = 18.762 (6) Å, β = 114.02(1)°, V = 4681(3) ų, and Z = 4 ([P(C₆H₅)₄]₂[Cu₂I₄]-D), respectively. In these compounds the [CuI₂]^? anions form dimers di-μ-iodo-diiodocuprate(I), which are either planar ( C ) or folded ( D ).     

[N(PPh3)2]2[{Au3Ag2(C2Ph)6} {Au3Cu2(Cu2Ph)6}]: Co-crystallized pentanuclear bimetallic gold-silver and gold-copper clusters

The X-ray structural study of the reaction product of equimolar amounts of [Au₃Cu₂(C₂Ph)₆]. [{Au(C₂Ph)} _n ], and [Ag(C₂Ph)} _n ] revealed two bimetallic anionic [N(PPh₃)₂] + [Au₃Ag₂(C₂Ph)₆]^– and [N(PPh₃)₂]⁺[Au₃Cu₂ (C₂ Pg)₆] — clusters co-crystallized in one asymmetric unit. Each cluster has trigonal bipyramidal geometry with three gold atoms occupying equatorial planes and two silver or copper atoms in the apical positions. Our earlier conclusion based upon spectroscopic characterization describing the product of be above reaction as trimetallic cluster containing three coinage-metals with an overall composition [Au₃CuAg(C₂Ph)₆]^–, was erroneous.Presented at the 210th ACS Meeting, August 19–24, 1995, Chicago, Illinois.     

Reductive Benzylation of Dimetallo Hexaaryl[70]Fullerenes on the Equatorial Region

Dianions of dimetallic hexa(organo)[70]fullerene [(C₅R₅)₂Ru₂C₇₀Ar₆]^2? (R=H, Me; Ar=Ph, 4‐MeC₆H₄, 4‐tBuC₆H₄) react with benzylic bromide to yield the dibenzylated product dimetallic octa(organo)[70]fullerene (C₅R₅)₂Ru₂C₇₀Ar₆(CH₂Ar′)₂ (Ar′=Ph, 4‐MeO₂CC₆H₄), where the benzylic groups are attached to the equatorial belt region of [70]fullerene; this region is generally considered to be rather unreactive. This unusual structure was unambiguously determined by X‐ray crystallography. Theoretical studies on the electronic properties of the monoanionic intermediate indicated that the highest spin density resides on the two carbon atoms in the belt region; one of them then couples with a benzylic radical to yield the octa(organo)fullerene product after ionic substitution of the fullerene anion with a benzylic bromide. Electrochemical analysis of the hexa(organo) and octa(organo) ruthenium complexes suggests that the modification of the belt region does not affect the electronic communication between the two metal centers.     

[B(O–C6H4–CN)4]– based Silver and Copper Coordination Polymers

A series of new coordination polymers bearing the [B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄]^– anion was synthesized. Two new, one dimensional coordination frameworks of the type M[B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄] (M = Ag, Cu) were obtained by salt metathesis. The reactivity towards organic Lewis‐bases was studied. The reaction with bidentate ligands yielded two dimensional networks with the general formula [M(L)][B(O–C₆H₄–CN)₄] {L = 2,2′‐bipyridine, 4,4′‐bipyridine, 1,2‐bis(pyridyl)ethane, 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane}. The synthesis, properties and single crystal structure are reported.     

Derivate des borabenzols: XVI. (Borinato)(cyclobutadien)cobalt-komplexe mit tetramethyl- und tetraphenylcyclobutadien-liganden. Synthese,elektrophile aromatische substitution und ringgliedsubstitution am borinato-liganden

The preparation of (borinato)(cyclobutadiene)cobalt complexes from the reactions of Co(C₅H₅BR)(1,5-C₈H₁₂) with acetylenes C₂R′₂ and of [C₄(CH₃)₄]Co(CO)₂I with Tl(C₅H₅BR) (R,R′ = CH₃, C₆H₅) is described.In electrophilic substitution reactions Co(C₅H₅BCH₃)[C₄(CH₃)₄] (IVa) is more reactive than ferrocene. CF₃CO₂D effects H/D-exchange in the α-position of the borabenzene ring within a few minutes at ambient temperature and in the γ-position within less than four hours Friedel-Crafts acetylation with CH₃COCl/AsCl₃ in CH₂Cl₂ affords the 2-acetyl and the 2,6-diacetyl derivative of IVa. With the more active catalyst AlCl₃, ring-member substitution is effected to give cations [Co(arene)C₄(CH₃)₄]⁺ (arene = C₆H₅CH₃, 2-CH₃C₆H₄COCH₃). Vilsmeier formylation gives the 2-formyl derivative of IVa. The acyl derivatives Co(2-R¹CO-6-R²C₅H₃BCH₃)[C₄(CH₃)₄] (R¹ = CH₃, R² = H, CH₃CO and R¹ = R² = H) transform to the corresponding cations [Co(ortho-R¹R²C₆H₄)C₄(CH₃)₄]⁺ in superacidic media. The mechanistic relationship between acylation and ring-member substitution is discussed in detail.     

Electrophilic aromatic substitution under chemical ionization conditions. Methylamine and ammonia as reagent gases

For compounds C₆H₅X (X?Cl, Br, I) under chemical ionization conditions, methylamine causes ipso substitution of X by [NH₂CH₃]⁺ and by [NH₂]⁺˙. C₆H₅F is less reactive; it gives some [C₆H₅NH₂]⁺˙. Nitrobenzene gives an adduct ion [M+CH₃NH₃]⁺, a reduction product ion [C₆H₅NO₂]⁺˙, and an ion at m/z93, probably a substitution product [C₆H₅NH₂]⁺˙, but no [C₆H₅NH₂CH₃]⁺. It is also shown that the ion m/z94, formed from nitrobenzene with ammonia as reagent gas, is a substitution product rather than a reduction product ion. Carbonyl compounds C₆H₅. CO. X give adduct ions and some substitution, mainly [C₆H₅NH₂]⁺˙.     

Tetraazadibora[3, 3]paracyclophane

Starting from the para‐phenylenediamine derivative HN(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐NH(SiMe₃), a lithiation and subsequent borylation give [(MeO)₂B]N(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)[B(OMe)₂] ( 1 ), the hydridation of which yields Li₂[(H₃B)N(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)(BH₃)] ( 2 ). Applying ZrCl₄ upon 2 initiates a condensation to give the title compound [‐N(SiMe₃)‐p‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)‐BH‐]₂, a hetero[3, 3]paracyclophane with two N‐B‐N chains that connect the para‐phenylene units. The product 3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁.     

Reverse ATRP Process of Methacrylonitrile in [C4mim][PF6]

In this original experiment, an ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C₄mim][PF₆]), was used as the reaction media for reverse atom transfer radical polymerization of methacrylonitrile (MAN) initiated by azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) with FeCl₃ and isophthalic acid (IA) as catalyst and ligand. The polymerization in [C₄mim][PF₆] proceeded in a well-controlled manner as evidenced by kinetic studies. Compared with the polymerization in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), the polymerization in [C₄mim][PF₆] not only showed better control of molecular weight and narrower molecular weight distribution but also provided more rapid reaction rate with the ratio of [MAN]:[AIBN]:[FeCl₃]:[IA] at 300:1:2:4. The block copolymer PMAN-b-PSt was obtained via a conventional ATRP process in [C₄mim][PF₆] by using the resulting PMAN as macroinitiator. [C₄mim][PF₆] and FeCl₃/IA could be easily recycled and reused and had no effect on the living nature of reverse atom transfer radical polymerization of MAN.     

Synthesis of imidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidine derivatives

Two complementary procedures, each starting from 6-aminomethyluracil ( 2 ), have been used to prepare imidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidines with a variety of substituents at positions 3, 5, 6, and 7. The starting material, 2 , can be readily prepared from commercially available 6-chloromethyluracil by reaction with anhydrous ammonia. In the first procedure, 2 is acylated and then cyclodehydrated by reaction with phosphorus oxychloride to give a separable mixture of a 3-substituted 5,7-dichloroimidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidine and a 3-substituted 7-chloroimidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-5(6H)-one. The relative product distribution is subject to some control by the choice of the acyl substituent on the starting uracil. The resulting dichloro compounds were derivatized by reaction at the 5-position with various nucleophiles, although the 7-chloro substituent is unreactive. An alternative synthetic method proceeds from 2 in six efficient steps (protection as the phthalimide, chlorination, nucleophilic substitution, deprotection, acylation, and cyclodehydration) to 3-substituted-5,7-bis(methylthio)imidazo[1,5-c]pyrimidines. These compounds may also be derivatized by nucleophilic substitution at the 5-position.     

Cs[Er10(C2)2]I18 und [Er10(C2)2]Br18: zwei neue Beispiele für „reduzierte”︁ Halogenide der Lanthanide mit isolierten [M10(C2)2]-Clustern

Cs[Er₁₀(C₂)₂]I₁₈ and [Er₁₀(C₂)₂]Br₁₈: Two New Examples for Reduced Halides of the Lanthanides with Isolated [M₁₀(C₂)₂] Clusters Cs[Er₁₀(C₂)₂]I₁₈ is obtained from the reaction of ErI₃ with caesium and carbon in sealed tantalum containers at 700°C and [Er₁₀(C₂)₂]Br₁₈ through the metallothermic reduction of ErBr₃ with rubidium in the presence of carbon at 750°C in sealed niobium containers. The crystal structures {Cs[Er₁₀(C₂)₂]I₁₈: triclinic, P1 ; a = 1 105.2(8) pm, b = 1 112.0(7) pm; c = 1 122.9(8) pm; α = 66.91(3)°, β = 87.14(3)°; γ = 60.80(3)°; Z = 1; R = 0.049, R_w = 0.043; [Er₁₀(C₂)₂]Br₁₈: monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 971.8(6) pm, b = 1 623.4(9) pm, c = 1 163.8(6) pm, β = 104.00(6)°; Z = 2; R = 0.077, R_w = 0.057} contain isolated dimeric [Er₁₀(C₂)₂] clusters. Due to the inclusion of C₂ units, the octahedra are elongated in the direction of the pseudo C₄ axis. The connecting edges of the two octahedra are exceptionally short (316.7 pm and 314.8 pm respectively). The dimeric units are connected via X^i?a and X^a?i (X = Br, I) bridges according to [Er₁₀(C₂)₂XX]X. Cs⁺ is surrounded by a cuboctahedron of iodide ions in Cs[Er₁₀(C₂)₂]I₁₈.
