Cyclopalladation of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylisophthalthioamide

Summary N,N,N,N-Tetramethylisophthalthioamide (Hmpt) was cyclopalladated with PdCl₂ in hot dimethylsulphoxide to give [PdCl(mpt)]. The structure was determined by X-ray analysis. The thioamide is metallated at C(2) to act as an S528-01C528-02S tridentate anionic ligand. There is appreciable steric repulsion between the benzene ring H(4, 6) and the dimethylamino groups. The hydrogens and the methyl groups mutually deviate from the coordination plane in opposite directions. The stability of the fused 5,5-membered chelate ring formed by the S528-03C528-04S ligand seems to overcome the steric hindrance. Derivatives were prepared by replacement of the chloride ion with iodide, diethyldithiocarbamate, 4-tert-butylpyridine, or tri-n-butylphosphine, and characterized spectroscopically. The S528-05C528-06S-fused chelate ring was maintained in these derivatives.     

Asymmetric synthesis of N,O-diprotected (2S,3S)-N-methyl-δ-hydroxyisoleucine,noncoded amino acid of halipeptin A

The first enantioselective synthesis of N,O-diprotected (2S,3S)-N-methyl-δ-hydroxyisoleucine 4, starting from readily available (tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-2-butyn-1-ol 5, is described. The key steps of this stereochemical flexible synthetic route involve a silyl-assisted [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement, for the establishment of the correct stereoisomeric pattern, and a triethylsilane–TFA induced reduction of an oxazolidinone intermediate, to yield the requested N-methylation.     

Calorimetric study of the solubilization of ethylenediamine,N,N-dimethylaminoethylamine and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine by reversed AOT micelles

Distribution constants and standard enthalpies of transfer of ethylenediamine (en), N,N-dimethylaminoethylamine (dmen) and N,N,N,N-tetramethylethylenediamine (tmen) partitioned between n-heptane and water containing reversed sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) micelles as a function of the molar concentration ratio R (R=[water]/[AOT]) were evaluated by a calorimetric method. The results show that en, dmen and tmen molecules, solubilized in the reversed micelles, are distributed between the micellar aqueous core and the micellar palisade layer. An analysis of the thermodynamic parameters of the partition process demonstrates the peculiar solvent properties of the water containing reversed AOT micelles.

Four-membered ring cyclic ketene –O,O–, –O,S–, –O,N–, –S,S–, –S,N–, and –N,N–acetals and their corresponding cations: a computational study

A systematic computational study of four-membered cyclic ketene –O,O–, –O,S–, –O,N–, –S,N– and –N,N-acetals as well as their protonated analogs have been performed at the second order M?ller Plesset level with a polarized triple zeta basis set. The main purpose of this study was to make predictions about the nucleophilicity of these systems and the variations in nucleophilicity with the hetero atoms. Our calculations suggest that all six target molecules are good nucleophiles, and that the N,N analog is the strongest and the S,S analog the weakest nucleophile. Our results include molecular geometries, bond lengths, proton affinities, vibrational frequencies, and calculated charges.     

Sensitive Spectrophotometric Determination of Benzoylperoxide with N,N,N′,N′-Tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine

Abstract

A highly sensitive spectrophotometric determination of benzoylperoxide (BPO) based on the color developing reaction between N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) and BPO in the presence of cerium(IV) in weakly acidic media is proposed. The calibration graph is linear in the range 0–6000 ng BPO per 10 ml with an apparent molar absorptivity of 4.73 × 10⁵ 1 mol^?1 cm-1 at 612 nm. The proposed method is about 50-fold more sensitive than N-ethyl-2-naphthylamine (NENA), and application to assays of flour is described.     

Thermodynamic characteristics of the protolytic equilibria of tetramethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid

The stepwise dissociation constants of tetramethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (H₄L) are determined by means of potentiometry at 298.15 K and ionic strength values of 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 (KNO₃). The heat effects of the dissociation of the betaine groups of the complexone are measured by direct calorimetry. The standard thermodynamic characteristics of the protolytic equilibria of H₄L are calculated via combined use of the results from thermochemical and potentiometric studies performed under identical experimental conditions. Our results are compared with the corresponding data on relative compounds.

Vibrational spectra of N,N-dimethyl/diethylaniline,N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl/tetraethyl-p-phenylenediamine and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl/tetraethylbenzidine derivatives

The ground state and protonated state (quaternized salt) vibrational spectra (200–1800 cm⁻¹) of the title amines are reported for various ring and/or methyl deuterated derivatives. Complete assignments are proposed and compared to those established for the parent hydrocarbons, benzene and biphenyl, and for the parent primary amines, aniline, p-phenylenediamine and benzidine. The electronic distribution, N(n)→ring(π) charge-transfer character and inductive effects are characterized from a vibrational point of view. Finally changes in the vibrational and electronic conformation upon protonation of the nitrogen atom are discussed. These results provide a fundamental basis for the vibrational investigation of excited states and reactive transients of aromatic amines.

Structural characterization of dicyanidobis-(N,N′-dimethylthiourea-κS)cadmium(II)

A cadmium(II) complex dicyanidobis(N,N′-dimethylthiourea-S) cadmium(II) [Cd(Dmtu)₂(CN)₂] (1) is prepared and its structure in the solid state is determined by single crystal X-ray structural analysis. The cadmium(II) ion is four-coordinate having a distorted tetrahedral geometry composed of two cyanide C atoms and two thione S atoms of N,N′-dimethylthiourea (dmtu). The molecular structure is stabilized by intermolecular N-H…N(CN) hydrogen bonding interactions that lead to a 3D network structure. The complex was also characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy.

Enantioselectivity switch controlled by N,N′-di- or N,N,N′,N′-tetra-substituted chiral thiophosphorodiamide ligands,structural relatives of thioureas,in catalytic additions of diethylzinc to aldehydes

We have developed a series of new chiral thiophosphorodiamide ligands derived from (1R,2R)-(+)-1,2-diphenylethylenediamine, which are the structural relatives of thioureas. An investigation into their catalytic properties in asymmetric additions of diethylzinc to aldehydes has shown that N,N,N′,N′-tetra-substituted chiral thiophosphorodiamides can give (R)-secondary alcohols with up to 98% yield and 98% ee, while N,N′-di-substituted chiral thiophosphorodiamides give (S)-secondary alcohols with up to 99% yield and 97% ee values. The enantioselectivity switch is highly efficient with a broad substrate scope. We have also proposed hypothetical reaction pathways, which result in an enantioselectivity switch.     

Radiolytic stability of N,N-didodecyl-N’,N’-diethylhexyl diglycolamide

The radiolytic degradation of N,N-di-dodecyl-N′,N′-di-2-ethylhexyl-3-oxapentane-1,5-diamide (D³DEHDGA) was studied at various absorbed doses of γ-radiation. The degradation was assessed by measuring the variation in the extraction behavior of Am(III) in irradiated solvent systems composed of neat D³DEHDGA or 0.1 M D³DEHDGA/n-dodecane in the presence and absence of nitric acid. The distribution ratio of americium (D _Am(III)) decreased with increase of absorbed dose. The presence of n-dodecane and nitric acid enhanced the radiolytic degradation of the solvent. The third phase formation behavior of Nd(III) decreased with increase of absorbed dose and the third phase was not observed at absorbed doses above 100 kGy. The recovery of Am(III) from the irradiated system was near quantitative in five contacts. The study revealed that the extraction and stripping behavior of the irradiated solvent was quite satisfactory for partitioning of minor actinides from real wastes.
