The Reaction of 2‐X‐1, 2‐Difluoroalk‐1‐enyldifluoroboranes with Xenon Difluoride. A Methodical Approach to 1, 2‐Difluoroalk‐1‐enylxenon(II) Salts

2‐X‐1, 2‐Difluoroalk‐1‐enylxenon(II) salts were prepared by the reaction of XeF₂ with XCF=CFBF₂ (X = F, trans‐H, cis‐Cl, trans‐Cl, cis‐CF₃, cis‐C₂F₅) but no organoxenon(II) compounds were obtained when the trans‐isomers of boranes, trans‐XCF=CFBF₂ (X = CF₃, C₄F₉, C₄H₉, Et₃Si), were used under similar conditions.     

A practical approach for spiro‐ and 5‐monoalkylated barbituric acids

The single step reactions of N,N′‐ substituted/‐unsubstituted barbituric acids with various alkyl dihalides under phase transfer catalytic conditions using DMF‐K₂CO₃ (base), TBAHSO₄ (catalyst) provide spirobarbituric acids in moderate to high yields. Irrespective of the existence of C₅‐monoalkylated compounds in the enolic form (confirmed by the isolation of some of its analogues), the second alkylation predominantly takes place at C₅. The underlying mechanism for the reaction is discussed. The 5,7‐dimethyl‐5,7‐diaza‐spiro[2.5]octane‐4,6,8‐trione undergoes ring opening with NaCN, PhSH, HS(CH₂)₂OH and Br₂ to provide 5‐monoalkylated barbiturates which are otherwise difficult to prepare by the usual alkylation of barbituric acids.     

Four cyclo­alkane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithiones

The crystal structures of four cyclo­alkane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithiones, namely cyclo­pentane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithione {systematic name: 1,3‐diaza­spiro­[4.4]­nonane‐2,4‐dithione}, C₇H₁₀N₂S₂, cyclo­hexane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithione {systematic name: 1,3‐diaza­spiro­[4.5]decane‐2,4‐dithione}, C₈H₁₂N₂S₂, cyclo­heptane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithione {systematic name: 1,3‐diaza­spiro­[4.6]undecane‐2,4‐dithione}, C₉H₁₄N₂S₂, and cyclo­octane­spiro‐4′‐imidazolidine‐2′,5′‐dithione {systematic name: 1,3‐di­aza­spiro­[4.7]dodecane‐2,4‐dithione}, C₁₀H₁₆N₂S₂, have been determined. The three‐dimensional packing in all of the structures is based on closely similar chains, in which hydantoin moieties are linked through N—H⋯S hydrogen bonding. The size of the cyclo­alkane moiety influences the degree of its deformation. In the cyclo­octane compound, the cyclo­octane ring assumes both boat–chair and boat–boat conformations.     

A Convenient Approach to the Enantiopure （1S, 2S, 4S, 5S ）- and（ 1R, 2S, 4R, 5 S ）-2,5-Bis （ phenylmethyl）-l, 4-diazabicyclo[ 2.2.2 ] -octane

Cyclodipepflde (3S, 6S )-bis (phenylmethyl) piperazlne-2,5-dione was prelmred in high yield by heating phenylalanine methyl ester in toluene under reflux. The reduction of this cydodipeptide with sodium NaBH4-BF3 in DIME gave the (2S ,SS)-bis(phenyl-methyl)plperazine, which, on heating with ethylene bromide and triethyiamine, afforded the title compounds. This methodwas proved to be generally applicable to the synthesis of C2-symmetric 2, 5-disubsiituted=l, 4-diazabicyclo [ 2.2.2 ] octanefrom the corresponding natural or unnatural amino acid esters.     

Synthesis of β‐Keto Sulfones by a Catalyst‐Free Reaction of Aryldiazonium Tetrafluoroborates,Sulfur Dioxide,and Silyl Enol Ethers

A green approach for the generation of β‐keto sulfones through a reaction of aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborates and sulfur dioxide with silyl enol ether under catalyst‐ and additive‐free conditions has been realized. This reaction proceeds efficiently at room temperature and goes to completion in half an hour. During the reaction process, aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborate is treated with DABCO ⋅ (SO₂)₂ (DABCO=1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane) to provide a sulfonyl radical as the key intermediate, which then initiates the transformation. Oxidants or metal catalysts are avoided, and the presence of DABCO also plays an important role in the reaction.     

A Green Synthesis of 2‐Amino‐4‐(9H‐carbazole‐3‐yl)thiophene‐3‐carbonitriles by a Step‐wise and One‐pot Three‐component Gewald Reaction

An eco‐friendly method has been developed for the synthesis of 2‐amino‐4‐(9H‐carbazole‐3‐yl)thiophene‐3‐carbonitriles from preliminary carbazole ( 1 ) through an intermediate of 2‐(1‐(9H‐carbazole‐3‐yl)ethylidene)malononitriles using the Knoevenagel condensation followed by the Gewald reaction. On the other hand, the target compounds could also be prepared in a one‐pot three‐component manner by treating equimolar quantities of 1‐(9H‐carbazole‐3‐yl)ethanone ( 3 ), malononitrile, and elemental sulfur. The merits of this preparation are mild reaction conditions. The Gewald reaction is executed with inorganic base NaHCO₃ (H₂O) in tetrahydrofuran, easy work‐up procedure with good yields.     

Two regioisomers of condensed thioheterocyclic triazine synthesized from 6‐phenyl‐3‐thioxo‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one

In the crystal structure of 6‐phenyl‐3‐thioxo‐2,3,4,5‐tetrahydro‐1,2,4‐triazin‐5‐one, C₉H₇N₃OS, (I), the 1,2,4‐triazine moieties are connected by face‐to‐face contacts through two kinds of double hydrogen bonds (N—H...O and N—H...S), which form planar ribbons along the a axis. The ribbons are crosslinked through C—H...π interactions between the phenyl rings. The molecular structures of two regioisomeric compounds, namely 6‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐7H‐1,3‐thiazolo[3,2‐b][1,2,4]triazin‐7‐one, C₁₁H₉N₃OS, (II), and 3‐phenyl‐6,7‐dihydro‐4H‐1,3‐thiazolo[2,3‐c][1,2,4]triazin‐4‐one, C₁₁H₉N₃OS, (III), which were prepared by the condensation reaction of (I) with 1,2‐dibromoethane, have been characterized by X‐ray crystallography and spectroscopic studies. The crystal structures of (II) and (III) both show two crystallographically independent molecules. While the two compounds are isomers, the unit‐cell parameters and crystal packing are quite different and (II) has a chiral crystal structure.     

Amarisolide monohydrate,a 2‐(β‐glu­cosyl)­neoclerodane

The absolute configuration of the neoclerodane glycoside amarisolide, presented here as the monohydrate, C₂₆H₃₆O₉·H₂O, has been determined by association with the known configuration of the glucose moiety. Its structure was established as 2β‐(O‐β‐d ‐gluco­pyran­osyl)­neocleroda‐3,13(16),14‐trien‐15,16‐epoxy‐18,19‐olide. Extensive hydrogen bonding among the hydroxyl groups of the sugar moiety forms layers which are interconnected by water mol­ecules.     

Hexacyanoferrate‐based ionic liquids as Fenton‐like catalysts for deep oxidative desulfurization of fuels

Two hexacyanoferrate‐based ionic liquids, [C₄Py]₃Fe(CN)₆ and [C₁₆Py]₃Fe(CN)₆, were synthesized and characterized using Fourier transform infrared and mass spectroscopies and CHN analysis. They were employed as Fenton‐like catalysts in extraction and catalytic oxidative desulfurization of model oil with dibenzothiophene (DBT), benzothiophene (BT), 4,6‐dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6‐DMDBT), 4‐methyldibenzothiophene (4‐MDBT) and 3‐methylbenzothiophene (3‐MBT) as substrates. Various polar solvents, such as ionic liquids, water and organic solvents, were applied to choose a suitable extractant. The results showed the removal of DBT reached 97.1% with [C₄Py]₃Fe(CN)₆ as a catalyst and 1‐n‐octyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C₈mim]PF₆) as an extractant under optimal conditions. The activity of sulfur removal followed the order DBT > 3‐MBT > BT > 4‐MDBT >4,6‐DMDBT. The effect of water content on sulfur removal was investigated by adding various concentrations of H₂O₂. It was found that excess water had a positive effect on sulfur removal but the catalysts were less sensitive than [FeCl₄^?]‐based catalysts to water. The mechanism was studied using electron spin‐resonance spectroscopy and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. O₂^?? may be the active oxygen species in the catalytic oxidative desulfurization process and the oxidation products of various sulfur compounds were the corresponding sulfoxides and sulfones.

In situ Alkylation of 4,4′‐Vinylenedipyridine for Inorganic‐Organic Iodides/Iodidomercurates

Solvothermal reactions of HgI₂, 4,4′‐vinylenedipyridine, and HI in alcoholic solution (methanol, ethanol, or pentanol) gave rise to a family of organic‐inorganic hybrid complexes, formulated as [C₁₄H₁₆N₂][I₄]^2– ( 1 ), [C₁₆H₂₀N₂][HgI₄] ( 2 ), and [C₂₂H₃₂N₂][HgI₄]₄ ( 3 ). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction reveals that all three compounds are discrete structures, including the inorganic anion [I₄]^2– or [HgI₄]^2– and an organic cation, where the resulting organic cations were generated in situ alkylation reactions of 4,4′‐vinylenedipyridine with alcohols, with cleavage of the alcoholic C–O bond followed by a one‐step in situ N‐alkylation reaction of 4,4′‐vinylenedipyridine in acidic HI solution. X‐ray powder diffraction (XRD), ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR, energy‐dispersive X‐ray (EDS), IR, as well as UV/Vis/NIR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the complexes.     

Monitoring structural transformations in crystals. 13. On photocyclization in 2,3,4,5,6‐pentamethylbenzophenone, 1,3‐diphenylbutan‐1‐one and 2,4,6‐triisopropyl‐4′‐methoxybenzophenone

The geometrical parameters governing the potential for the photocyclization reaction occurring in crystals of 2,3,4,5,6‐pentamethylbenzophenone, C₁₈H₂₀O, (I), 1,3‐diphenylbutan‐1‐one, C₁₆H₁₆O, (II), and 2,4,6‐triisopropyl‐4′‐methoxybenzophenone, C₂₃H₃₀O₂, (IV), have been evaluated. Compound (IV) undergoes photocyclization but (I) and (II) do not, despite the fact that their geometrical parameters appear equally favourable for reaction. The structure of the partially reacted crystal of the photoactive compound, i.e. 2,4,6‐triisopropyl‐4′‐methoxybenzophenone–3,5‐diisopropyl‐7‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐8,8‐dimethylbicyclo[4.2.0]octa‐1,3,5‐trien‐7‐ol (9/1), 0.90C₂₃H₃₀O₂·0.10C₂₃H₃₀O₂, (III), was also determined, providing structural evidence for the reactivity of the compound. It has been found that the carbonyl group of the photoactive compound reacts with one of the two o‐isopropyl groups. The study has shown that the intramolecular geometrical parameters are not the only factors influencing the reactivity of compounds in crystals.     

Synthesis of heterocyclic compounds using amidines as their ene‐1,1‐diamine tautomers. II. Synthesis of 2,3‐dihydropyridine, 3,4‐dihydropyridine and 3,4‐dihydropyrrol‐2‐one derivatives by the reaction of amidines with α, β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds

N‐t‐Butylacetamidines 1 on heating with methyl vinyl ketone, acrolein or crotonaldehyde gave the 2,3‐dihydropyridine derivatives 4,5 or 6 via N‐alkylation of the acetamidines 1 . Reaction of amidines 1 with phenyl 1‐propenyl ketone, benzalacetone or chalcone gave 3,4‐dihydropyridine derivatives 8, 9 or 10 . These were obtained by C‐alkylation, achieved by Michael addition of the acetamidines 1 as their N,C‐tautomers ene‐1,1‐diamines 1 ′ to α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds, and subsequent cyclodehydration of adducts. Reaction of 1 with ethyl 3‐benzoylacrylate gave 3,4‐dihydropyrrol‐2‐one derivatives 13 .     

Electrophile‐Induced Nucleophilic Substitution of the nido‐Dicarbaundecaborate Anion nido‐7,8‐C2B9H12− by Conjugated Heterodienes

Substitution of the dicarbaundecaborate anion nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₂^? ( 1 ) by precise hydride abstraction followed by nucleophilic attack usually leads to symmetric products 10‐R‐nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₁. However, thioacetamide (MeC(S)NH₂) as nucleophile and acetone/AlCl₃ as hydride abstractor gave asymmetric 9‐[MeC(NHiPr)S]‐nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₁ ( 2 ), whereas N,N‐dimethylthioacetamide (MeC(S)NMe₂) gave the expected symmetric 10‐[MeC(NMe₂)S]‐nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₁ ( 4 ). For the formation of 2 , acetone and thioacetamide are assumed to give the intermediate MeC(S)N(CMe₂) ( 3 ), which then attacks 1 with formation of 2 . Similarly, reaction of acetyliminium chloride [MeC(O)NH(CPh₂)]Cl ( 5 ) with 1 in THF gave a mixture of 9‐ and 10‐substituted [MeC(NHCHPh₂)O]‐nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₁ ( 6 and 7 , respectively). These reactions are the first examples in which compounds (here heterodienes) that unite the functionalities of both hydride acceptor and nucleophilic site react with 1 in a bimolecular fashion. Furthermore, the analogous reaction of 1 and 5 (in an equilibrium mixture with acetyl chloride and benzophenone imine) in MeCN afforded 10‐[MeC(NCPh₂)NH]‐nido‐7,8‐C₂B₉H₁₁ ( 8 ) and MeC(O)NHCHPh₂ ( 9 ).     

High‐Quality Gasoline Directly from Syngas by Dual Metal Oxide–Zeolite (OX‐ZEO) Catalysis

Despite significant efforts towards the direct conversion of syngas into liquid fuels, the selectivity remains a challenge, particularly with regard to high‐quality gasoline with a high octane number and a low content of aromatic compounds. Herein, we show that zeolites with 1D ten‐membered‐ring (10‐MR) channel structures such as SAPO‐11 and ZSM‐22 in combination with zinc‐ and manganese‐based metal oxides (Zn_aMn_bO_x) enable the selective synthesis of gasoline‐range hydrocarbons C₅–C₁₁ directly from syngas. The gasoline selectivity reached 76.7 % among hydrocarbons, with only 2.3 % CH₄ at 20.3 % CO conversion. The ratio of isoparaffins to n‐paraffins was as high as 15, and the research octane number was estimated to be 92. Furthermore, the content of aromatic compounds in the gasoline was as low as 16 %. The composition and structure of Zn_aMn_bO_x play an important role in determining the overall activity. This process constitutes a potential technology for the one‐step synthesis of environmentally friendly gasoline with a high octane number from a variety of carbon resources via syngas.     

Synthesis of New Furo[2,3‐d]pyrimidines and Pyrimido[4′,5′:4,5]furo[2,3‐d]pyrimidines

Sodium salt of 4‐hydroxy‐6‐methyl‐2‐phenylpyrimidine‐5‐carbonitrile ( 3 ) was subjected to alkylation with different a‐halo compounds, where the corresponding O‐alkylated products 4_a‐g were obtained. Ring closure of the O‐alkylated product 4_a‐c performed using sodium ethoxide in refluxing ethanol afforded furo[2,3‐d]pyrimidines 5_a‐c The latter compounds on reaction with a variety of reagents gave other new furopyrimidines as well as a number of furodipyrimidines.     

Novel Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions of 5‐Halo‐4‐Sulfur‐Substituted 5,6‐Dihydro‐2‐Pyridones

The title compounds ( 3 , 8 , 9 and 10 ) were efficiently synthesized, and their substitution reactions with various nucleophiles were carried out. The effects of leaving group, sulfur‐substituent, solvent, reaction temperature, and the nature of the nucleophiles on the reactivity and S_N2/S_N2′ regioselectivity were studied and rationalized with semi‐empirical calculations.     

2, 4‐Dimethylpenta‐1, 3‐dien‐ und 2, 4‐Dimethylpentadienyl‐Komplexe des Rhodiums und Iridiums

2, 4‐Dimethylpenta‐1, 3‐diene and 2, 4‐Dimethylpentadienyl Complexes of Rhodium and Iridium The complexes [(η⁴‐C₇H₁₂)RhCl]₂ ( 1 ) (C₇H₁₂ = 2, 4‐dimethylpenta‐1, 3‐diene) and [(η⁴‐C₇H₁₂)₂IrCl] ( 2 ) were obtained by interaction of C₇H₁₂ with [(η²‐C₂H₄)₂RhCl]₂ and [(η²‐cyclooctene)₂IrCl]₂, respectively. The reaction of 1 or 2 with CpTl (Cp = η⁵‐C₅H₅) yields the compounds [CpM(η⁴‐C₇H₁₂)] ( 3a : M = Rh; 3b : M = Ir). The hydride abstraction at the pentadiene ligand of 3a , b with Ph₃CBF₄ proceeds differently depending on the solvent. In acetone or THF the “half‐open” metallocenium complexes [CpM(η⁵‐C₇H₁₁)]BF₄ ( 4a : M = Rh; 4b : M = Ir) are obtained exclusively. In dichloromethane mixtures are produced which additionally contain the species [(η⁵‐C₇H₁₁)M(η⁵‐C₅H₄CPh₃)]BF₄ ( 5a : M = Rh; 5b : M = Ir) formed by electrophilic substitution at the Cp ring, as well as the η³‐2, 4‐dimethylpentenyl compound [(η³‐C₇H₁₃)Rh{η⁵‐C₅H₃(CPh₃)₂}]BF₄ ( 6 ). By interaction of 2, 4‐dimethylpentadienyl potassium with 1 or 2 the complexes [(η⁴‐C₇H₁₂)M(η⁵‐C₇H₁₁)] ( 7a : M = Rh; 7b : M = Ir) are generated which show dynamic behaviour in solution; however, attempts to synthesize the “open” metallocenium cations [(η⁵‐C₇H₁₁)₂M]⁺ by hydride abstraction from 7a , b failed. The new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopically, 4b and 5a also by X‐ray structure analysis.     

Chloro(2‐{[5‐(2‐hydroxy­benzyl‐O)‐1,5‐di­aza‐1‐cyclo­octyl‐N,N′]­methyl}phenolato‐O)­cadmium(II)

The crystal structure of the title complex, [Cd(C₂₀H₂₅­N₂­O₂)­Cl], reveals a hydrogen‐bonded dimer composed of neutral molecules. The Cd^II center is five‐coordinated by two O atoms of the pendant arms, two nitro­gen donors of the 1,5‐di­aza­cyclo­octane ring and a chloride anion. The coordination geometry of the complex could be described as a distorted square pyramid. The 1,5‐di­aza­cyclo­octane backbone adopts a boat/chair configuration and the two phenol/phenolato groups have a dihedral angle of 101.3 (2)° between them. The coordinated phenolate and phenolic groups of inversion‐related mol­ecules form strong intermolecular O—H?O hydrogen bonds.     

Tandem β‐Boration/Arylation of α,β‐Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds by Using a Single Palladium Complex To Catalyse Both Steps

Diphenyl(3‐methyl‐2‐indolyl)phosphine (C₉H₈NPPh₂, 1 ) gives stable dimeric palladium(II) complexes that contain the phosphine in P,N‐bridging coordination mode. On treating 1 with [Pd(O₂CCH₃)₂], the new complexes [Pd(μ‐C₉H₇NPPh₂)(NCCH₃)]₂ ( 2 ) or [Pd(μ‐C₉H₇NPPh₂)(μ‐O₂CCH₃)]₂ ( 3 ) were isolated, depending on the solvent used, acetonitrile or toluene, respectively. Further reaction of 3 with the ammonium salt of 1 led to the substitution of one carboxylate ligand to afford [Pd(μ‐C₉H₇NPPh₂)₃(μ‐O₂CCH₃)] ( 4 ), in which the bimetallic unit is bonded by three C₉H₇NPPh₂^? moieties and one carboxylate group. Using this methodology, [Pd₂(μ‐C₆H₄PPh₂)₂(μ‐C₉H₇NPPh₂)(μ‐O₂CCX₃)] (X=H ( 7 ); X=F ( 8 )) were synthesised from the ortho‐metalated compounds [Pd(C₆H₄PPh₂)(μ‐O₂CCX₃)]₂ (X=H ( 5 ); X=F ( 6 )). Complexes 3 , 4 , 7 , and 8 have been found to be active in the catalytic β‐boration of α,β‐unsaturated esters and ketones under mild reaction conditions. Hindrance of the carbonyl moiety has an influence on the reaction rate, but quantitative conversion was achieved in many cases. More remarkably, when aryl bromides were added to the reaction media, complex 7 induced a highly successful consecutive β‐boration/cross‐coupling reaction with dimethyl acrylamide as the substrate (99 % conversion, 89 % isolated yield).
