Synthesis of Nonracemic 9-(1-Methoxycarbonylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazole

A new approach has been proposed to the synthesis of indole derivatives containing a chiral substituent at the nitrogen atom, comprizing Fischer indolization of phenylhydrazines with a chiral substituent at the -nitrogen atom. The initial hydrazines were obtained by the alkylation (Mitsunobu reaction applying optically active esters of lactic acid) of anilines containing an electron-accepting substituent at the amino group. Subsequent removal of the activating acceptor grouping was realized by nitrosation of the chiral secondary aniline followed by reduction of the corresponding N-nitroso compound.

Tandem cleavage of 2,3,5-trimethyl 7-trifluoroacetyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-pyrrolo[1,2-<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>]pyrimidine by activated alkynes,caused by Michael addition of a tertiary nitrogen atom to a triple bond

The interaction of 7-trifluoroacetyltetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-c]pyrimidine with acetylenedicarboxylic ester (DMAD) and ethyl propiolate in acetonitrile and alcohols has been studied. It was established that DMAD splits pyrrolopyrimidine at the aminal fragment in acetonitrile and methanol with the formation of 1-H-and 2-(N-dimethoxycarbonylvinyl-N-methyl)aminoethyl-1-methoxymethyl-3-methyl-5-trifluoroacetylpyrroles. In acetonitrile ethyl propiolate splits pyrrolopyrimidine both at the aminal fragment and at the C₍₃₎-N₍₂₎ bond (Hofmann reaction), but in ethanol only at the C₍₃₎-N₍₂₎ bond with the formation of 2-propenylpyrroles. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1082–1087, July, 2007.

The formation of cation-ligand complexes of tributylammonium cation with diethyl carbonate,ethylene carbonate,propylene carbonate, 4-butyrolactone,ethyl acetate,and cyclopentanone ino-dichlorobenzene at 25°C

The effects of adding millimolar quantities of a series of compounds containing the carbonyl function on the conductances of solutions (0.2 mM) of tri-n-butylammonium picrate ino-dichlorobenzene solvent at 25°C have been measured. Values of the complex formation constants K ₁ ⁺ for 1:1 cation-ligand complexes are derived from these data. The corresponding values of –G ₁ ⁰ at 25°C are (in kcal-mole ^–1 ): 4-butyrolactone, 4.29; propylene carbonate, 3.87; ethylene carbonate, 3.59; cyclopentanone, 3.42; ethyl acetate, 2.84; and diethyl carbonate, 2.78. These results together with earlier results from this laboratory are discussed in terms of the effects of structure on cation-ligand affinity.     

Simple route to secondary amides of phosphorylacetic acids and their use for extraction and sorption of actinides from nitric acid solutions

An efficient method for the synthesis of secondary alkylamides of phosphorylacetic acids (APA) was proposed. The method involves amidation of ethyl phosphorylacetates with primary aliphatic amines. The scope of reaction was determined. Reactions with ethylenediamine and 1,4-diaminobutane yield the corresponding bisamides; in the case of 1,3-diaminopropane, N-(3-aminopropyl)diphenylphosphorylacetamide or N,N-propylenebis(diphenylphosphorylacetamide) was obtained, depending on the reaction conditions. The extraction of americium(III) complexes and the sorption of uranium(VI) by sorbents with physically sorbed APA from nitric acid solutions were studied. There is no correlation between the partition coefficient of americium(III) and the structure of APA; in the sorption of uranium(VI), the degree of extraction depends on the complexone structure.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Structures and hardness of ethyl halides and ethyl tosylate

Ab initio calculations (RHF) of EtX molecules (X=F, Cl, Br, I, or OTs) were carried out with the use of different basis sets. Total charges on the atoms in the compounds under study were determined by Mulliken's, NPA, and Bader's methods, and a comparison of these values was performed. For all EtX compounds, a topological analysis of the electron density was carried out within the framework of Bader's theory, and the global and relative local hardnesses of the above-mentioned ethylating agents were estimated.

Synthesis of Ultrafine SiC Powders from Carbon-Silica Hybridized Precursors with Carbothermic Reduction

Inorganic-organic hybrid gels were prepared by simultaneous condensation of the liquid mixture of ethyl silicate, ethyl borate and water soluble phenol resin with low molecular weight. The liquid mixtures were changed into lightly colored transparent gels after a catalyst addition and stirring. The obtained gels were crushed, dried and fired in controlled conditions to yield the inorganic precursors. Since the tailored inorganic precursors mainly consisted of SiO2 and carbon, silicon carbide was formed with the heat treatments in an Ar atmosphere beyond 1773 K with carbothermic reduction. The properties and morphology of the formed silicon carbide powders in terms of the starting precursor compositions and the conditions of the carbothermic reduction were investigated with SEM, XRD and TG-DTA analysis.     

Interaction of (1-phenylethyl)indole-2-carbonitrile with C-nucleophiles

Methods of obtaining ketones and enamino esters have been developed on the basis of reactions of 1-(1-phenylethyl)indole-2-carbonitrile with organomagnesium and organozinc compounds. Removal of a benzyl group from the indole nitrogen atom by the Grignard reagent has been discovered. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1179–1183, August, 2006.
