In situ (1)H and (13)C MAS NMR kinetic study of the mechanism of H/D exchange for propane on zeolite H-ZSM-5

The kinetics of hydrogen (H/D) exchange between Br?nsted acid sites of zeolite H-ZSM-5 and variously deuterated propanes (propane-d(8), propane-1,1,1,3,3,3-d(6), propane-2,2-d(2)) have been monitored in situ by (1)H MAS NMR spectroscopy within the temperature range of 503-556 K. The contribution of intramolecular hydrogen transfer to the H/D exchange in the adsorbed propane was estimated by monitoring the kinetics of (13)C-labeled carbon scrambling in propane-2-(13)C in situ with (13)C MAS NMR at 543-573 K. Possible mechanisms of the exchange have been verified on the basis of the analysis of the variation of protium concentration in both the methyl and the methylene groups of propane in dependence of the reaction time. The main route of the exchange consists of a direct exchange of the acidic OH groups of the zeolite with either the methyl groups or the methylene group presumably with a pentacoordinated carbonium ion intermediate. The assumption that the intramolecular H scrambling between the methyl groups and the methylene group of propane via carbenium-ion-type intermediates is the fastest process among the other possible routes does not account for the experimental kinetics of H/D exchange for propanes with different initial contents and locations of deuterium in a propane molecule. The rate constant (k(3)) for intramolecular H/D exchange between the methyl and the methylene groups is 4-5 times lower compared to those of the direct exchange of both the methyl (k(1)) and the methylene (k(2)) groups with Br?nsted acid sites of the zeolite, the k(1) being ca. 1.5 times higher than k(2). At lower temperature (473 K), the exchange is slower, and the expected difference between k(1) and k(2) is more essential, k(1) = 3k(2). This accounts for earlier observed regioselectivity of the exchange for propane on H-ZSM-5 at 473 K. Faster direct exchange with the methyl groups compared to that with the methylene groups was attributed to a possible, more spatial accessibility of the methyl groups for the exchange. Similar activation energies for H and C scramblings with a 2 times more rapid rate of H scrambling was rationalization by the proceeding of these two processes through an isopropyl cation intermediate, as in classical carbenium ion chemistry.     

Organic glass-forming materials: 1,3,5-tris(naphthyl)benzene derivatives

The organic glass-forming materials 1,3-bis(1-naphthyl)-5-(2-naphthyl)benzene (2) and its partially deuterated analogue, 1,3-bis(1-naphthyl-d(7))-5-(2-naphthyl)benzene (2-d(14)), have been synthesized on a gram scale using Suzuki coupling reactions. Detailed spectroscopic studies afford complete NMR assignments (1H, 2H, 13C) for both compounds. Modest energy barriers for the interconversion of atropisomers (ca. 15 kcal/mol) result in a propensity for these materials to form supercooled liquids and glasses, rather than undergoing crystallization. The preparation of these materials enables detailed studies of physical properties of organic glasses and molecular diffusion in condensed phases.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of (2S,2'S,4'R)-2-(1-Hydroxy-1-ethylpropyl)-1-[(1'-p-tosyl-4'-hydroxypyrrolidin-2'-yl)methyl]pyrrolidine

1 INTRODUCTION In recent years, chiral β-amino alcohols have attracted much attention due to their special bio- logical functions and catalytic activities. Chiral β- amino alcohol moieties are usually found not only in natural products (e.g., cinchona alkaloids, ephe- drine, toxal, etc.) with special biological activities[1, 2], but also critical structural segments of some syn- thesized biologically active compounds, such as adrenergic agonists or antagolist[3, 4] and inhibitors for HI…     

Synthesis of gem-dideuterated tetradecanoic acids and their use in investigating the enzymatic transformation of (Z)-11-tetradecenoic acid into (E,E)-10,12-tetradecadienoic acid.

We report the preparation of the deuterated tetradecanoic acids [2,2,3,3-(2)H(4)]-, [2,2,3,3,10,10-(2)H(6)]-, and [2,2,3,3,13,13-(2)H(6)]-tetradecanoic acids (1, 2, and 3, respectively) and their use to investigate the mechanism of the enzymatic transformation of (Z)-11-tetradecenoic acid into (E,E)-10,12-tetradecadienoic acid. Probes 2 and 3 were prepared from intermediate ketones 7 and 10, which were transformed into the labeled bromides 17 and 18 by reduction with NaBD(4), tosylation of the resulting alcohol, replacement of the tosyloxy group by deuteride with LiAlD(4), hydrolysis, and reaction with N-bromosuccinimide. The resulting bromides were converted into the alpha-acetylenic esters 21 and 22, respectively, and the additional deuterium labels were introduced by reduction of the conjugated triple bond with Mg in deuterated methanol. The same sequence of reactions starting with 11-bromoundecane afforded 27. Saponification of the labeled esters 23, 24, and 27 gave the deuterated acids 2, 3, and 1, respectively. The results of the biochemical experiments showed that C10-H removal, but not elimination of C13-H, was sensitive to deuterium substitution in the transformation of (Z)-11-tetradecenoic acid into (E,E)-10,12-tetradecadienoic acid, which is consistent with the hypothesis that this desaturase reaction involves a first slow, C10-H bond cleavage, with probable formation of an unstable allylic intermediate, followed by a second fast C13-H bond removal and concomitant rearrangement.     

Rearrangement of 4,5-epoxy-9-trimethylsilyldecalines. Application to the synthesis of the natural eremophilane (-)-aristolochene

Several 4,5-epoxy-9-trimethylsilyl-eudesmanes and 15-nor-eudesmanes, having different relative stereochemistry and substitution at the oxirane ring, have been prepared starting from (-)-carvone and subjected to acid-promoted rearrangement. The presence of the silicon at C9 favors two different main reaction pathways involving C14-methyl or C1-methylene migration through the stabilization of a C10 carbocation intermediate. Selective 1,2-migration of the bridgehead methyl group takes place with trisubstituted beta-epoxide and tetrasubstituted alpha-epoxide, yielding 4-hydroxy-eremophilane and 15-nor-eremophilane compounds, while the trisubstituted alpha-epoxide suffers successive rearrangements to give a 1-hydroxy-15-nor-eremophilane through a pathway involving the initial migration of the C1 methylene. The synthetic utility of these rearrangements is shown by the synthesis of natural (-)-aristolochene.

Synthesis of dimethyl 3-perfluoroalkyl-4-(3-oxo-2-triphenyl-phosphoranylidenbutanylidene)-pent-2-enedioate and its cyclization

The title compounds 5a-5c were prepared via the reaction of methyl 2-perfluoroal-kynoates (4) with methyl 5-oxo-4-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)hex-2-enoate (3), which was obtained from the reaction of methyl propynate (2) with acetylmethylenetriphenylphosphorane (1) at -5-0℃. Intramolecular elimination of Ph3PO took place when compound 5 was heated in aqueous methanol at 115-120℃ in sealed tube, yielding dimethyl 2-trifluoromethyl-4-methylisophthalate (6a) from 5a and methyl 5-acetyl-4-hydroxy-2-heptafluoropropanylbenzoate (6b) from 5b, respectively. The structures of compounds 5, 6a and 6b were confirmed by IR, MS, 1H NMR, 19F NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Rection mechanisms for the formation of compounds 5, 6a and 6b were proposed.     

Synthesis of the arachno-4-CB(8)H(12)(2)(-) monocarbaborane dianion and NMR/computational studies of the fluxional processes observed in the isoelectronic nine-vertex arachno anions: arachno-4-CB(8)H(12)(2)(-), arachno-4-CB(8)H(13)(-), and arachno-4-SB(8)H(11)(-)

The new monocarbaborane dianion, arachno-4-CB(8)H(12)(2)(-) has been synthesized from the reaction of arachno-4-CB(8)H(14) with 2 equiv of NaH in polar solvents. DFT/GIAO computations at the B3LYP/6-311G//B3LYP/6-311G level, in conjunction with 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic studies, have confirmed that the dianion results from deprotonation of both the endo-CH and one bridging hydrogen of the parent arachno-4-CB(8)H(14). While the DFT calculations indicate that a C(1) symmetric structure is lowest in energy, the experimental solution NMR data are consistent with the dianion having a C(s)() symmetric structure, thus suggesting that it is fluxional in solution. Transition state calculations located a low-energy pathway with an activation energy of only 2.7 kcal/mol that allows the migration of the bridging hydrogen between the two enantiomeric forms of the dianion. The process can occur by a single-step, simple rotation through a transition state structure containing a -BH(2) group at the B7 boron. Averaging the calculated (11)B NMR chemical shifts of the resonances for those atoms in the static enantiomeric structures that become equivalent by this fluxional process then gives excellent agreement with the solution NMR data. Transition state calculations of the fluxional behavior previously observed for the isoelectronic arachno-4-CB(8)H(13)(-) and arachno-4-SB(8)H(11)(-) monoanions have likewise revealed related low-energy (0.3 and 5.0 kcal/mol, respectively) rearrangement mechanisms involving the simultaneous rotation of three hydrogens (two bridging and one -BH(2)) through a C(s)() symmetry transition state containing three -BH(2) groups.     

Convenient synthesis of fully and partially deuterated stereoregular poly(phenylacetylene)s bearing a carboxy pendant and helicity induction on the polymers with chiral amines and its memory

Poly[(4-carboxyphenyl)acetylene] and its derivatives deuterated in the main chain and/or on the phenyl group (poly- 1 's) were conveniently synthesized by the polymerization of 4-ethynylbenzoic acid or its derivative deuterated on the phenyl group in the presence of bases with a water-soluble rhodium complex in water or deuterium oxide. The obtained polymers possesses highly cis–transoidal stereoregular structures according to NMR and Raman spectroscopy. Possible deuterium isotope effects of these partially and fully deuterated poly- 1 's during the helicity induction with chiral amines and its memory assisted by achiral amines were investigated. The thermal cis–trans isomerization of the methyl esters of poly- 1 's was also studied with ¹H NMR spectroscopy. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Characterization of the sterically encumbered terphenyl-substituted species 2,6-Trip2H3C6Sn-Sn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, an unsymmetric, group 14 element, methylmethylene, valence isomer of an alkene, its related lithium derivative 2,6-Trip2H3C6(Me)2Sn-Sn(Li)(Me)C6H3-2,6-Trip2, and the monomer Sn(t-Bu)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3)

The reaction of the recently reported sterically encumbered terphenyl tin(II) halide species Sn(Cl)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (Trip = C6H2-2,4,6-i-Pr3), 1, with 1 equiv of MeLi or MeMgBr afforded 2,6-Trip2H3C6Sn-Sn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 2, which is the first stable group 14 element methylmethylene (i.e., CH3CH) analogue of ethylene (H2CCH2). Reaction of 1 with 1.5 equiv of MeLi yielded the stannylstannate species 2,6-Trip2H3C6(Me)2Sn-Sn(Li)(Me)-C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 3, whereas reaction of 1 with 1 equiv of t-BuLi gave the heteroleptic stannanediyl monomer Sn(t-Bu)C6H3-2,6-Trip2 (4). The compounds 2-4 were characterized by 1H, 13C (7Li, 3 only), and 119Sn NMR spectroscopy in solution and by UV-vis spectroscopy. The X-ray crystal structures of 2-4 were also determined. The formation of the stannylstannanediyl 2 instead of the expected symmetrical, valence isomer "distannene" form (Sn(Me)C6H3-2,6-Trip2)2, 6, is explained through the ready formation of LiSn(Me)2C6H3-2,6-Trip2, 5, which reacts rapidly with 1 to produce 2 which can then react with a further equivalent of MeLi to give 3. The stability of singly bonded 2 in relation to the formally doubly bonded 6 was rationalized on the basis of the difference in the strength of their tin-tin bonds. In contrast to the methyl derivatives, the reaction of 1 with t-BuLi proceeded smoothly to give the monomeric compound 4. Apparently, the formation of a t-Bu analogue of 5 was prevented by the more crowding t-Bu group. Compound 2 is also the first example of a stable molecule with bonding between a two-coordinate, bivalent tin and four-coordinate tetravalent tin. Both compounds 2 and 3 display large J 119Sn-119Sn couplings between their tin nuclei and the tin-tin bond lengths in 2 (2.8909(2) A) and 3 (2.8508(4) A) are relatively normal despite the presence of the sterically crowding terphenyl substituents.     

The initial stages of solid acid-catalyzed reactions of adsorbed propane. A mechanistic study by in situ MAS NMR

In situ solid-state NMR spectroscopy was employed to study the kinetics of hydrogen/deuterium exchange and scrambling as well as (13)C scrambling reactions of labeled propane over Al(2)O(3)-promoted sulfated zirconia (SZA) catalyst under mild conditions (30-102 degrees C). Three competitive pathways of isotope redistribution were observed during the course of the reaction: (1) a regioselective H/D exchange between acidic protons of the solid surface and the deuterons of the methyl group of propane-1,1,1,3,3,3-d(6), monitored by in situ (1)H MAS NMR; (2) an intramolecular H/D scrambling between methyl deuterons and protons of the methylene group, without exchange with the catalyst surface, monitored by in situ (2)H MAS NMR; (3) a intramolecular (13)C scrambling, by skeletal rearrangement process, favored at higher temperatures, monitored by in situ (13)C MAS NMR. The activation energy of (13)C scrambling was estimated to be very close to that of (2)H scrambling, suggesting that these two processes imply a common transition state, responsible for both vicinal hydride migration and protonated cyclopropane formation. All pathways are consistent with a classical carbenium ion-type mechanism.     

Cesium hydridotris(trifluoromethyl)borate, Cs[(CF3)3BH

Treatment of Cs[(CF3)3BNH2] with the aminating agent H2NOSO3H in aqueous solution allowed the isolation of pure Cs[(CF3)3BH], which is stable up to 300 degrees C. Due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the CF3 substituents, the [(CF3)3BH]- anion behaves as a very unreactive hydride. It is stable in concentrated hydrochloric acid for many days but reacts cleanly with F2, Cl2, and Br2 to the corresponding haloborates. The molecular structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: orthorhombic, space group Pnma; a = 11.4296(5) A, b = 7.9510(4) A, c = 9.7268(5) A; V = 883.94(7) A(3), Z = 4; R1 = 0.0294, wR2 = 0.0818. The anions exhibit only Cs symmetry in the lattice. The natural and deuterated anions were characterized by IR, Raman, and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy; vibrational assignments were supported by DFT calculations. QTAIM charges derived from the B3LYP electron density are given for [(CF3)3BH]- and several related anions.

Total synthesis of (-)-hennoxazole A

An enantioselective, convergent total synthesis of the antiviral marine natural product (-)-hennoxazole A is completed in 14 steps (longest linear sequence) from commercially available 4-methyloxazole-2-carboxylic acid. Synthesis of the C(1)-C(15) pyran/bisoxazole fragment takes advantage of an aldol-like coupling between a dimethyl acetal and an N-acetylthiazolidinethione for the direct, stereoselective installation of the C(8)-methoxy-bearing stereocenter. A one-pot acetoacetate acylation/decarboxylation/cyclodehydration of another elaborate thiazolidinethione allows for rapid assembly of the pyran-based ring system. Synthesis of the C(15)-C(25) skipped triene side chain fragment makes use of a [2,3]-Wittig-Still rearrangement for efficient installation of the trisubstituted Z-double bond. Key late-stage coupling of the two fragments is effected by deprotonation of the methyl group on the bisoxazole system using lithium diethylamide, followed by alkylation with an allylic bromide side chain segment to form the C(15)-C(16) bond.

Conformational analysis and crystal structure of {[1-(3-chloro-4-fluorobenzoyl)-4-fluoropiperidin-4yl]methyl}[(5-methylpyridin-2-yl)methyl]amine, fumaric acid salt

{[1-(3-Chloro-4-fluorobenzoyl)-4-fluoropiperidin-4yl]methyl}[(5-methylpyridin-2-yl)methyl]amine, fumaric acid salt (C(20)H(22)ClF(2)N(3)O, C(4)H(4)O(4)) (1) was synthesized and characterized by the complete (1)H, (13)C and (19)F NMR analyses. The conformation of the piperidin ring, in the solution state, was particularly studied from the coupling constants determined by recording a double-quantum filtered COSY experiment in phase-sensitive mode. (1)H NMR line-shape analysis was used, at temperatures varying between -5 and +60 degrees C, to determine the enthalpy of activation of the rotational barrier around the CN bond. Compound 1 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a=8.517(3) Angstrom, b=12.384(2) Angstrom, c=12.472(3) Angstrom, alpha=70.88(2) degrees, beta=82.04(2) degrees, gamma=83.58(2) degrees. The results strongly indicate that the solid and solution conformations are similar. Thermal stability and phases transitions were investigated by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Furthermore polymorphism screening was studied from recrystallization of 1 performed in seven solvents and by slurry conversion in water. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) and differential scanning calorimetry results suggested that 1 crystallizes into one crystalline form which melts at 157 degrees C (DeltaH=132 J g(-1)).
