N-Arylation of 4-fluoro-5-trimethylsilyl-1H-pyrazole

The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of fluoro(trimethylsilyl)acetylene prepared in situ with an excess of diazomethane smoothly proceeded to give the corresponding 4-fluoro-5-trimethylsilyl-1H-pyrazole in 84% yield. The copper iodide-catalyzed N-arylation of the fluorinated pyrazole with a variety of aryl iodides afforded N-aryl-4-fluoropyrazoles as desilylation products in good to excellent yields.     

Plasma Thermal Conversion of Methane to Acetylene

This paper describes a re-examination of a known process for the direct plasma thermal conversion of methane to acetylene. Conversion efficiencies (% methane converted) approached 100% and acetylene yields in the 90–95% range with 2–4% solid carbon production were demonstrated. Specificity for acetylene was higher than in prior work. Improvements in conversion efficiency, yield, and specificity were due primarily to improved injector design and reactant mixing, and minimization of temperature gradients and cold boundary layers. At the 60-kilowatt scale cooling by wall heat transfer appears to be sufficient to quench the product stream and prevent further reaction of acetylene resulting in the formation of heavier hydrocarbon products or solid carbon. Significantly increasing the quenching rate by aerodynamic expansion of the products through a converging–diverging nozzle led to a reduction in the yield of ethylene but had little effect on the yield of other hydrocarbon products. While greater product selectivity for acetylene has been demonstrated, the specific energy consumption per unit mass of acetylene produced was not improved upon. A kinetic model that includes the reaction mechanisms resulting in the formation of acetylene and heavier hydrocarbons, through benzene, is described.     

Synthesis of 4-hetaryl-5,6-(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)-2-phenyl-4h-thiazines and investigation of their photochromism

The polar [4+2] cycloaddition reaction of 1,2-bis(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)acetylene with thiobenzamide and certain aldehydes of the thiophene and furan series catalyzed by boron trifluoride etherate gives the corresponding 4-hetaryl-5,6-di(2,5-dimethyl-3-thienyl)-2-phenyl-4H-1,3-thiazines. The photochromic properties of the products have been studied.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 100–106, January, 2005.     

Radical addition reactions: factors determining the transition-state geometry

Interatomic distances in the reaction centers of the addition reactions of (i) H^· to the C=C, C=O, N≡C, and C≡C bonds, (ii) ^·CH₃ radical to the C=C, C=O, and C≡C bonds, and (iii) alkyl, aminyl, and alkoxyl radicals to olefin C=C bonds were determined using a new semiempirical method for calculating transition-state geometries of radical reactions. For all reactions of the type X^· + Y=Z → X— Y—Z^· the r ^# _X...Y distance in the transition state is a linear function of the enthalpy of reaction. Parameters of this dependence were determined for seventeen classes of radical addition reactions. The bond elongation, Δr ^# _X...Y, in the transition state decreases as the triplet repulsion, electronegativity difference between the atoms X and Y in the reaction center, and the force constant of the attacked multiple bond increase. __________ Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Electrochemical behavior of phenol at acetylene black-dihexadecyl hydrogen phosphate composite modified glassy carbon electrode in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide

The electrochemical response of phenol at acetylene black (AB)-dihexadecyl hydrogen phosphate (DHP) composite modified glassy carbon electrode in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was investigated. In this system, a sensitive oxidation peak at 0.62 V (SCE) was obtained. The electrode process and the influence of CTAB on the oxidation of phenol were explored by chronocoulometry and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). Experimental conditions for the determination of phenol were optimized. In the range of 5.0 × 10⁻⁷ to 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ M, the phenol concentration was linear with the oxidation peak current and the detection limit was found to be 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ M for 3 min accumulation. The method was applied for the determination of phenol in lake water and the results were satisfactory. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2008, Vol. 44, No. 2, pp. 222–229.

Synthesis and Structure of Monomeric,Trimeric, and Mixed Phenylcyanamides

In a new synthetic approach phenylcyanamide (Hpca) was synthesized by methylation of phenylthiourea followed by a basic work‐up. All products along the synthetic route have been fully characterized by means of NMR, IR, and X‐ray studies. The first structural report of neutral mixed crystals of phenylcyanamide containing monomeric and trimeric Hpca is presented. Examination of these intriguing mixed crystals revealed the formation of distinct layers of monomeric and trimeric Hpca. These layers are interconnected by weak hydrogen bonds. The trimer represents triphenylisomelamine, which readily isomerizes to the triphenylmelamine in the melt, in accord with computations at the B3LYP level, indicating an exothermic process (ΔH=?49.4 kcal mol^?1). Pure trimeric Hpca (triphenylisomelamine) was obtained either by recrystallization of the mixed crystals from boiling water or by trimerization of monomeric Hpca in isopropanol for 12 h under reflux conditions. For comparison tritylcyanamide (Htca) and potassium phenylcyanamide as an [18]crown‐6 complex [K([18]crown‐6)pca] have been synthesized, and the solid‐state structures were determined using X‐ray diffraction techniques. The thermal behavior was studied by thermo‐analytical experiments. In agreement with the experimental results, computations predict an exothermic cyclotrimerization process for Hpca (ΔH=?41.3 kcal mol^?1).     

Formation of Acetylene in the Reaction of Methane with Iron Carbide Cluster Anions FeC3− under High‐Temperature Conditions

The underlying mechanism for non‐oxidative methane aromatization remains controversial owing to the lack of experimental evidence for the formation of the first C?C bond. For the first time, the elementary reaction of methane with atomic clusters (FeC₃^?) under high‐temperature conditions to produce C?C coupling products has been characterized by mass spectrometry. With the elevation of temperature from 300 K to 610 K, the production of acetylene, the important intermediate proposed in a monofunctional mechanism of methane aromatization, was significantly enhanced, which can be well‐rationalized by quantum chemistry calculations. This study narrows the gap between gas‐phase and condensed‐phase studies on methane conversion and suggests that the monofunctional mechanism probably operates in non‐oxidative methane aromatization.     

Catalytic hydrochlorination of acetylene on mechanochemically-activated K<Subscript>2</Subscript>PdCl<Subscript>4</Subscript>

We report the catalysis of the hydrochlorination of acetylene on the surface of dry K₂PdCl₄ subjected to prior mechanical activation in an atmosphere of acetylene or propylene. The stereochemistry of the reaction corresponds to trans addition of the halogen and hydrogen atoms to the C-C triple bond. The hydrogen halide is the source of the halogen atom in the reaction product. The mechanical activation of K₂PdCl₄, in contrast to the case of K₂PtCl₄, is also capable of activating the C-C double bond: propylene is hydrochlorinated under similar conditions to isopropyl chloride.
