An ionic liquid as reaction medium for the synthesis of halo-containing β-enaminones at room temperature

A series of twenty halomethylated β-enaminones [RC(O)CH=C(R ¹)NR ³ R ⁴, where R = CF₃,CCl₃, CHCl₂; R ¹ = H, Me, Ph; R ³ = H, Me, Bu, Et; R ⁴ = Me, Et, Bu, allyl, tert-amyl, CH₂CH₂OH, Bn, Ph] were synthesized using the ionic liquid [bmim]BF₄ at room temperature. It is demonstrated that this ionic liquid is a reaction medium suitable for the amination of β-alkoxyvinyl halomethyl ketones. The advantages of this method are the absence of solvents, short reaction times, and good yields. Correspondence: Marcos A. P.

An efficient synthesis of 1-cyanoacetyl-5-halomethyl-4,5-dihydro-1<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pyrazoles in ionic liquid

The synthesis of eleven 1-cyanoacetyl-5-hydroxy-5-halomethyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles from the reaction of 4-alkoxy-3-alken-2-ones f(R ³C(O)C(R ²) = C(R ¹)OR, where R ³ = CF₃, CCl₃, CHCl₂, CO₂ Et; R ²/R ¹ = H/H, H/Me, H/Et, -(CH₂)₄-, Me/H, H/Pr, and R = Me, Et) with cyanoacetohydrazide is reported. The reaction was carried out in the ionic liquid ([bmim][BF₄]) and molecular solvents.

Using Me3Si–F–Al(ORF)3 and Me3Si–Cl as Methylating Agents – Synthesis and Characterization of SeMeCl2[F{Al(ORF)3}2]

Upon reacting SeCl₄ with Me₃Si–F–Al(OR^F)₃, the selenonium salt SeMeCl₂[al‐f‐al] ( 1 ) {[al‐f‐al]^– = [F[Al(OC(CF₃)₃)₃]₂]^–} was obtained and characterized by NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy as well as single crystal XRD experiments. Despite the [SeX₃]⁺ (X = F, Cl, Br, I) and [SeR₃]⁺ salts (R = aliphatic organic residue) being well known and thoroughly studied, the mixed cations are scarce. The only previous example of a salt with the [SeMeCl₂]⁺ cation is SeMeCl₂[SbCl₆], which was never structurally characterized and is unstable in solution over hours. Only ¹H‐NMR studies and IR spectra of this compound are known. The unexpected use of Me₃Si–F–Al(OR^F)₃ as a methylating agent was investigated via DFT calculations and NMR experiments of the reaction solution. The reaction of SeCl₃[al‐f‐al] with Me₃Si‐Cl at room temperature in CH₂Cl₂ proved to yield the same product with Me₃Si–Cl acting as a methylating agent.     

Advances in Trifluoromethylating Phosphorus Compounds

Abstract

The System CF₃I/Me₃P is re-investigated and Me₂PCF₃, Me₄P⁺γ, (CF₃)₂PMe₃, Me₃PI₂, [Me₃(CF₃)P]⁺γ are found as products. Using CF₃Br/P(NEt₂)₃ the phosphines R¹ ₂PCF₃ and R¹P(CF₃)₂ (e.g. R¹ = Me, iPr, NEt₂) can be obtained which are precursors either for phosphoranes (e.g. 1,2λ⁵σ⁵-oxaphosphetanes) or phosphonium salts (e.g. [R¹ ₂(Me)PCF₃]⁺X^? or [R¹(Me)P(CF₃)₂X^?]. The latter are deprotonated to furnish methylene phosphoranes R¹ ₂(CH₂=)PCF₃ or R¹(CH₂=)P(CF₃)₂, reactive synthons. From CF₃Br/P(NEt₂)₃/P(OPh)₃ the phosphine P(CF₃)₃ is available, which turned out to be a potent electrophile. Amido phospites ROP(NEt₂)₂ and halides R²X (R²=CCl₂CF₃, X=Cl; R²=CF=CFCF₃, X=F; R²=C₆F₅, X=Br, I; R²=C(CF₃)₃, X=Br; R²=SCF₃, X=CF₃) undergo an ARBUZOV reaction.     

Silicon‐ and Tin‐Containing Open‐Chain and Eight‐Membered‐Ring Compounds as Bicentric Lewis Acids toward Anions

Herein, we report the syntheses of silicon‐ and tin‐containing open‐chain and eight‐membered‐ring compounds Me₂Si(CH₂SnMe₂X)₂ ( 2 , X=Me; 3 , X=Cl; 4 , X=F), CH₂(SnMe₂CH₂I)₂ ( 7 ), CH₂(SnMe₂CH₂Cl)₂ ( 8 ), cyclo‐Me₂Sn(CH₂SnMe₂CH₂)₂SiMe₂ ( 6 ), cyclo‐(Me₂SnCH₂)₄ ( 9 ), cyclo‐Me_(2?n)X_nSn(CH₂SiMe₂CH₂)₂SnX_nMe_(2?n) ( 5 , n=0; 10 , n = 1, X= Cl; 11 , n=1, X= F; 12 , n=2, X= Cl), and the chloride and fluoride complexes NEt₄[cyclo‐ Me(Cl)Sn(CH₂SiMe₂CH₂)₂Sn(Cl)Me?F] ( 13 ), PPh₄[cyclo‐Me(Cl)Sn(CH₂SiMe₂CH₂)₂Sn(Cl)Me?Cl] ( 14 ), NEt₄[cyclo‐Me(F)Sn(CH₂SiMe₂CH₂)₂Sn(F)Me?F] ( 15 ), [NEt₄]₂[cyclo‐Cl₂Sn(CH₂SiMe₂CH₂)₂SnCl₂?2 Cl] ( 16 ), M[Me₂Si(CH₂Sn(Cl)Me₂)₂?Cl] ( 17 a , M=PPh₄; 17 b , M=NEt₄), NEt₄[Me₂Si(CH₂Sn(Cl)Me₂)₂?F] ( 18 ), NEt₄[Me₂Si(CH₂Sn(F)Me₂)₂?F] ( 19 ), and PPh₄[Me₂Si(CH₂Sn(Cl)Me₂)₂?Br] ( 20 ). The compounds were characterised by electrospray mass‐spectrometric, IR and ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁹F, ²⁹Si, and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopic analysis, and, except for 15 and 18 , single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies.     

The perfluoropinacolyl group,a stabilizing substituent for unsual phosphines and phosphoranes

The perfluoropinacolyl qroup (=PFP) stabilises halogenophosphoranes of the type $\text{1}$ e.g.

X¹=X²=X³=F,Cl,Br or X¹=X²=Cl,Br, X³=F , covalent species which are able to react with Li₂PFP to form spirocyclic systems [1]. Precursors of compounds $\text{1}$ are the phosphites $\text{2}$ (X=F,Cl,Br). The aminophosphite with X=NH₂ shows interesting behaviour towards hexafluoroacetone forming a spiro system containg a four and a five membered ring. Phosphites with X=NR¹R² add readily chlorine to give stable chlorophosphoranes. Products of the ammonolysis of the trifluorophosphoranes (X¹=X²=X³=F) were the aminophosphoranes (H₂N)_nPF_3?n(PFP) (n=1,2,3) in good yields. Dynamic processes of the latter compounds were discussed on the bases of low temperatur ¹⁹F n.m.r. spectroscopy.     

Application of139La NMR spectroscopy to the coordination chemistry of lanthanum. Ligand exchange in cyclopentadienyl and metal carbonyl complexes of lanthanum

The ligand-exchange equilibria in cyclopentadienyl and metal carbonyl complexes of lanthanum have been qualitatively studied by¹³⁹La NMR spectroscopy: 2X¹X²X³La X¹X² ₂ La + X¹X³, La, where X¹=X²=Cp, X³=I; X¹=X² = 1, 3-(Me₃Si)₂C₅H₃, X³=Cl; X¹=Ru(CO)₂Cp; X²=Cp, X³=I. Similar equilibria are typical of the coordination chemistry of light lanthanides.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 578–581, March, 1993.     

A Dimeric Gallium Hydrazide as an Active Lewis Pair – Complexation and Activation of Me2GaH and Various Heterocumulenes

Treatment of the dimeric gallium hydrazide [Me₂Ga‐N(2‐Ad)‐NC₅H₁₀]₂ ( 5 ) with Me₂GaH resulted in the formation of an adduct 6 by Ga–N bond cleavage and coordination of the metal hydride via a Ga–N and a 3c–2e Ga–H–Ga bond. This reaction reflects the typical behavior of frustrated Lewis pairs. Reactions with heterocumulenes R–N=C=X (R = Ph, CMe₃, Dipp, X = O; R = Ph, X = S) or X=C=X (X = O, S) resulted in the formation of the cyclic Ga–N insertion products Me₂Ga–N(R)C(O)N(2‐Ad)‐NC₅H₁₀ ( 7a – c ), Me₂GaS₂C‐N(2‐Ad)‐NC₅H₁₀ ( 8 ) or Me₂GaX₂C‐N(2‐Ad)‐NC₅H₁₀ [X = O ( 9 ); S ( 10 )] in moderate to good yields. Three different structural motifs were observed in the solid state: Five‐membered GaNCN₂ heterocycles with exocyclic C=O bonds for compounds 7a – c , four‐membered GaSCN or GaSCS heterocycles for compounds 8 and 9 (chelating coordination of the Ga atoms by SCN and CS₂ ligands) and an eight‐membered (GaOCO)₂ heterocycle for the dimeric CO₂ insertion product 10 . Treatment of 5 with PhCN or Ph₂CO resulted in a completely different reaction and afforded a dimeric Ga imide 11a or an alcoholate 11b . These reactions may start by retro‐hydrogallation with the formation of H₁₀C₅N–N=C(C₉H₁₄) and Me₂GaH and proceed by addition of the metal hydride to the polar multiple bonds of the nitrile or ketone.     

Synthese und Struktur eines Pentaalkylchlorohexastibans Sb6R5Cl [R = (Me3Si)2CH]

Synthesis and Structure of Pentaalkylchlorohexastibane Sb₆R₅Cl [R = (Me₃Si)₂CH] The reaction of RSbCl₂ [R = (Me₃Si)₂CH] with Na‐K alloy in tetrahydrofuran gives besides the known rings Sb_nR_n (n = 3, 4), (Me₃Si)₂CH₂ and the pentaalkylchlorohexastibane Sb₆R₅Cl ( 1 ). 1 was characterized by spectroscopic methods (MS, ¹H‐, ¹³C‐NMR, X‐ray diffraction). The structure of 1 consists of a folded four membered antimony ring in the all‐trans configuration with three alkyl groups and one Sb(R)—Sb(R)Cl fragment as substituents.     

N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethylethylendiamin-di(tert-butyl)aluminium-Kationen — Molekülstruktur des [(Me3C)2Al · TMEDA]⊕[(Me3C)2AlBr2]⊖

(N,N,N′,N′ -tetramethylethylendiamine) di(tert-butyl)aluminium Cations — Molecular Structure of [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕[(Me₃C)₂AlBr₂]^? Dimeric di(tert-butyl)aluminium halides (Me₃C)₂AlX (X = Cl, Br) react with N,N,N′,N′ -tetramethylethylendiamine (TMEDA) to give three compounds: the salt-like [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕[(Me₃C)₂AlX₂]^? 1 , characterized by crystal structure determination, and [(Me₃C)₂Al(TMEDA)]^⊕X^? 3 both with chelating amine, and the more covalent, pentane soluble (Me₃C)₂AlX(TMEDA) 2 with TMEDA bound by only one nitrogen atom. The reaction resembles the symmetrical and unsymmetrical cleavage of diborane(6). 3 (X = Cl) is also formed by treatment of 1 with boiling n-hexane in the presence of TMEDA over a period of 24 hours, while for X = Br the more covalent 2 is the main product under similar conditions. In solution 2 decomposes slowly yielding different products in dependency of the solvent: in benzene 3 and in n-pentane 1 are formed.     

Ruthenium Tris(pyrazolyl)borate Complexes. Part 20 [1]. Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity of Neutral Trispyrazolylborate Ruthenium Vinylidene Complexes

The reaction of RuTp(COD)Cl (1) with PPh₂Prⁱ and terminal alkynes HCCR (R=C₆H₅, C₄H₃S, C₆H₄OMe, Fc, C₆H₄–Fc, C₆H₉) affords the neutral vinylidene complexes RuTp(PPh₂Prⁱ) (Cl)(=C=CHR) (2a–2f) in high yields. These complexes do not react with MeOH to give methoxy carbene complexes of the type RuTp(PPh₂Prⁱ)(Cl)(=C(OMe)CH₂R), but react with oxygen to yield the CO complex RuTp(PPh₂R)(Cl)(CO) (3). The structures of 2b, 2f, and 3 have been determined by X-ray crystallography.

Bimetallic Rare Earth Alkyl Complexes Bearing Bridged Amidinate Ligands: Synthesis and Activity for L-Lactide Polymerization

Four novel bridged‐amidines H₂L {1,4‐R¹[C(=NR²)(NHR²)]₂ [R¹=C₆H₄, R²=2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃ (H₂L¹); R¹=C₆H₄, R²=2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃ (H₂L²); R¹=C₆H₁₀, R²=2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃ (H₂L³); R¹=C₆H₁₀, R²=2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃ (H₂L⁴)]} were synthesized in 65%–78% isolated yields by the condensation reaction of dicarboxylic acid with four equimolar amounts of amines in the presence of PPSE at 180°C. Alkane elimination reaction of Ln(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂ (Ln=Y, Lu) with 0.5 equiv. of amidine in THF at room temperature afforded the corresponding bimetallic rare earth alkyl complexes (THF)(Me₃SiCH₂)₂LnL¹Ln(CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF) [Ln=Y ( 1 ), Lu ( 2 )], (THF)(Me₃SiCH₂)₂LnL²Ln‐ (CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF) [Ln=Y ( 3 ), Lu ( 4 )], (THF)(Me₃SiCH₂)₂YL³Y(CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF) ( 5 ), (THF)(Me₃SiCH₂)₂YL⁴‐ Y(CH₂SiMe₃)₂(THF) ( 6 ) in 72% –80% isolated yields. These neutral complexes showed activity towards L‐lactide polymerization in toluene at 70°C to give high molecular weight (M>10⁴) and narrow molecular weight distribution (M_w/M_n≦1.40) polymers     

Rare-earth metal allyl and hydrido complexes supported by an (NNNN)-type macrocyclic ligand: synthesis, structure, and reactivity toward biomass-derived furanics

The preparation and characterization of a series of neutral rare‐earth metal complexes [Ln(Me₃TACD)(η³‐C₃H₅)₂] (Ln=Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm) supported by the 1,4,7‐trimethyl‐1,4,7,10‐tetraazacyclododecane anion (Me₃TACD^?) are reported. Upon treatment of the neutral allyl complexes [Ln(Me₃TACD)(η³‐C₃H₅)₂] with Brønsted acids, monocationic allyl complexes [Ln(Me₃TACD)(η³‐C₃H₅)(thf)₂][B(C₆X₅)₄] (Ln=La, Ce, Nd, X=H, F) were isolated and characterized. Hydrogenolysis gave the hydride complexes [Ln(Me₃TACD)H₂]_n (Ln=Y, n=3; La, n=4; Sm). X‐ray crystallography showed the lanthanum hydride to be tetranuclear. Reactivity studies of [Ln(Me₃TACD)R₂]_n (R=η³‐C₃H₅, n=0; R=H, n=3,4) towards furan derivatives includes hydrosilylation and deoxygenation under ring‐opening conditions.     

Halogenomercury Salts of Sterically Crowded Triazenides – Convenient Starting Materials for Redox‐Transmetallation Reactions

Diaryl‐substituted triazenides Ar(Ar′)N₃HgX [Ar/Ar′ = Dmp/Mph, X = Cl ( 2a ), Br ( 3a ), I ( 4a ); Ar/Ar′ = Dmp/Tph, X = Cl ( 2b ), I ( 4b ) with Mph = 2‐MesC₆H₄, Mes = 2,4,6‐Me₃C₆H₂, Tph = 2′,4′,6′‐triisopropylbiphenyl‐2‐yl and Dmp = 2,6‐Mes₂C₆H₃] were synthesized by salt‐metathesis reactions in ethyl ether from the readily available starting materials Ar(Ar′)N₃Li and HgX₂. These compounds may be used for redox‐transmetallation reactions with rare‐earth or alkaline earth metals. Thus, reaction of 4b or 2b with magnesium or ytterbium in tetrahydrofuran afforded the triazenides Dmp(Tph)N₃MX(thf) ( 5b : M = Mg, X = I; 6b : M = Yb, X = Cl) in good yield. All new compounds were characterized by melting point, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and for selected species by IR spectroscopy or mass spectrometry. In addition, the solid‐state structures of triazenides 2a , 2b , 3a , 4b , 5b and 6b were investigated by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.     

Nanoscale Organolanthanum Clusters: Nuclearity-Directing Role of Cyclopentadienyl and Halogenido Ligands

Tetramethylaluminato/halogenido(X) ligand exchange reactions in half-sandwich complexes [Cp^RLa(AlMe₄)₂] are feasible in non-coordinating solvents and provide access to large coordination clusters of the type [Cp^RLaX₂]_x. Incomplete exchange reactions generate the hexalanthanum clusters [Cp^R₆La₆X₈(AlMe₄)₄] (Cp^R=Cp*=C₅Me₅, X=I; Cp^R=Cp′=C₅H₄SiMe₃, X=Br, I). Treatment of [Cp*La(AlMe₄)₂] with two equivalents Me₃SiI gave the nonalanthanum cluster [Cp*LaI₂]₉, while the exhaustive reaction of [Cp′La(AlMe₄)₂] with the halogenido transfer reagents Me₃GeX and Me₃SiX (X=I, Br, Cl) produced a series of monocyclopentadienyl rare-earth-metal clusters with distinct nuclearity. Depending on the halogenido ion size the homometallic clusters [Cp′LaCl₂]₁₀ and [Cp′LaX₂]₁₂ (X=Br, I) could be isolated, whereas different crystallization techniques led to the aggregation of clusters of distinct structural motifs, including the desilylated cyclopentadienyl-bridged cluster [(μ-Cp)₂Cp′₈La₈I₁₄] and the heteroaluminato derivative [Cp′₁₀La₁₀Br₁₈(AlBr₂Me₂)₂]. The use of the Cp′ ancillary ligand facilitates cluster characterization by means of NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis of Silver Complexes in DMSO–HX and DMSO–HX–Ketone Systems

Comparative analysis of the oxidizing and complexing properties of the DMSO–HX (X = Cl, Br, I) and DMSO–HX–ketone (X = Br, I; the ketone is acetone, acetylacetone, or acetophenone) systems toward silver was performed. The reaction products are AgX (X = Cl, Br, I), [Me₃S⁺]Ag _n X^– _m (n= 1, 2; m= 2, 3; X = Br, I) and [Me₂S⁺CH₂COR]AgX^– ₂(R = Me, Ph; X = Br, I). The composition of the obtained complexes depends on both the DMSO : HX ratio and the nature of HX, as well as on the methods used to isolate solid products from the solution. It was noted that the formation of the [Me₂S⁺CH₂COMe]AgBr^– ₂complex in the Ag⁰–DMSO–HBr–acetylacetone system occurs with cleavage of the acetylacetone C–C bond and follows a specific reaction course. The optimum conditions for production of the silver compounds in the title systems are determined.     

Banana‐shaped molecules with 4,6‐dichlorinated central core: effect of lateral substituents and terminal chains on the formation of antiferroelectric smectic mesophases

Six banana‐shaped compounds with a central core based on a 4,6‐dichloro‐1,3‐phenylene group were synthesized by varying the terminal chains (R = OC₁₀H₂₁ or OC₁₁H₂₁) and the lateral substituents (X = H, F or Cl). Their mesophases were characterized by a combination of differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy, triangular wave method, and X‐ray diffractometry. Mesomorphic properties of the banana‐shaped mesogens with an olefinic group (R = OC₁₁H₂₁) as a terminal chain are sensitive to lateral halogen substituents as much as those of the analogues with a saturated group (R = OC₁₀H₂₁). The compounds with X = F showed an antiferroelectric switchable smectic phase, which has been designated a B₂ phase. The compounds without a lateral halogen substituent only formed a nematic phase, while the compounds with X = Cl did not exhibit a mesophase in the melt.     

Self‐Assembly of Discrete Copper(I)‐Halide Complexes with Diacylthioureas

Three diacylthioureas 1,4‐C₆H₄[C(O)NHC(S)NHAr]₂ (Ar = 2,6‐iPr₂C₆H₃) ( L¹ , 1 ), 1,3‐C₆H₄[C(O)NHC(S)NHAr]₂ ( L² , 2 ), and 1,3‐C₆H₄[C(O)NHC(S)NHAr′]₂ (Ar′ = 2,6‐Me₂C₆H₃) ( L³ , 3 ) were synthesized and characterized. The Cu^I complexes from the reactions of bipodal ligands Lⁿ with CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) were structurally investigated by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction methods. Treatment of L¹ with CuX gave the metallamacrocyclic complexes ( L¹ CuX)₂ [X = Cl ( 4 ), Br ( 5 ), I ( 6 )] with the ligand to metal in a ratio of 2:2, where both sulfur and halide anions function as terminal substituents. In contrast, when L² or L³ was reacted with CuBr, the two Lⁿ ligands coordinate to four copper atoms each in a bridging and terminal fashion to yield [ Lⁿ (CuBr)₂]₂ [n = 2 ( 7 ), 3 ( 8 )]. The obtained S₄Cu₄Br₄ core contains all four bromide anions in bridging positions. The reaction of L³ with CuX (X = Cl, I) gave the 3:3 trinuclear complexes ( L³ CuX)₃ [X = Cl ( 9 ) I ( 10 )], interconnected by halide bridges. The obtained diacylthioureas ( 1 – 3 ) and their Cu^I complexes ( 4 – 10 ) were also characterized by elemental analysis, FT‐IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.
