6-Arylamino-3-methyl-7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazines: Novel N-Arylamidine Structures

We propose a method for obtaining derivatives of 7H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazine by alkylation of 4-amino-5-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol by substituted -chloroacetanilides, followed by cyclization of the intermediate by phosphorus oxychloride.     

Additive telluromolybdates. Structure and catalysis in oxidation

Additive telluromolybdates, MoO₃·2TeO₂ and M^IIO·TeO₂·MoO₃ (M^IITeMoO₆; M^II = Co, Mn, Zn), converted ethyl lactate selectively to pyruvate in a vaporphase fixedbed flow system at 250–300 °C. A synergy in activity was observed for binary TeO₂–MoO₃, and crystalline Te₂MoO₇ was suggested as the active species. The Rietveld analysis of powder XRD patterns of ternary CoTeMoO₆ revealed the layer structure quite different from that of the reference Te₂MoO₇, but tellurium was again located adjacent to molybdenum linked through lattice oxygen.     

Oxidation of 1-methylcyclobutanol by Pb(IV) and Mn(III) compounds

The main product of the reaction of 1-methylcyclobutanol with Pb(OAc)₄ in benzene is 1-phenyl-4-pentanone; the use of Mn(OAc)₃ in acetic acid gives a mixture of 2,9-decanedione and methyl propyl ketone; 1-(chloro-, bromo-, thiocyano-, or cyano)-4-pentanone is formed in the presence of the systems Pb(OAc)₄-metal halide or Mn(OAc)₃-metal halide.N.

Solubility enhancement of triflumizole by host-guest interaction with β-cyclodextrin

Summary The solubility enhancement of triflumizole, a systemic fungicide, by -cyclodextrin inclusion complexation was investigated by electron absorption spectroscopy. The respective association constant determined by different methods was estimated to 470±20M ^–1 in aqueous solution. A model for the host-guest complexation was deduced by molecular calculations.

Multipole expansion of diatomic overlap

A systematic extension of Ruedenberg's expansion formula is applied to evaluate two-electron integrals occurring in calculations on molecular structure. Minimum STO basis sets are used for all SCF-calculations within the framework of the MEDO-method (Multipole Expansion of Diatomic Overlap). The errors due to this approximation scheme are almost negligible compared to those introduced by the truncated basis set: LiH, Li₂ and N₂ are chosen as examples.     

Non-empirical LCAO-MO-SCF calculations of the electronic structure of SiF2

Non-empirical LCAO-MO-SCF calculations on SiF₂ using two Gaussian basis sets are reported. The larger basis set gives a calculated geometry in good agreement with experiment. The effect on the energy and population analysis of optimization of the Si 3d exponent was investigated. 3d orbitals are found to be much less important in the bonding than in the isoelectronic molecule SO₂.     

Asymmetric michael addition of aromatic thiols to 2-cyclohexenone and maleic acid esters via formation of crystalline cyclodextrin complexes

The asymmetric Michael addition of aromatic thiols to 2-cyclohexenone and maleic acid esters has been carried out by utilizing their crystalline cyclodextrin complexes suspended in water. The best chiral induction, 30% enantiomeric excess (ee), was achieved in combinations of 2-cyclohexenone and octyl maleate with the crystalline -cyclodextrin complex of benzenethiol (method A) to afford (S)-3-phenylthiocyclohexanone and (S)-octyl-2-phenylthiosuccinate, respectively, whereas the reaction of benzenethiol with 2-cyclohexenone included in -cyclodextrin (method B) inversely induced the chiral recognition to give the (R)-adduct with 4–9% ee.     

Convenient preparative method for synthesis of methyl (Z)-3-aryl-2-(carbobenzoxyamino)acrylates by Wittig—Horner reaction with the use of Et3N as a base

The Wittig—Horner reaction of CbzNHCH(CO₂Me)P(O)(OMe)₂ (1) with ArCHO (2) in the presence of Et₃N as a base affords methyl (Z)-3-aryl-2-(carbobenzoxyamino)acrylates (3) with high degrees of diastereoselectivity (Z)/(E) > 101. One recrystallization of the crude product is sufficient to obtain isomerically and chemically pure (Z)-3.Translated fromIzyestiya Akademii Nauk.

Formation of 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxymethylbenzo-1,4-oxathianes from 2-(α-trifluoromethylvinylthio)phenols)

It is shown that 2,2-difluoro-3-hydroxymethylbenzo-1,4-oxathianes are formed together with 3-trifluoromethylbenzo-1,4-oxathianes whenortho-(-trifluoromethyl--chloroethylthio)phenols are boiled with excess aqueous alkali.
