Synthesis,spectroscopic and X-ray structural studies of silver(I) complexes of α-keto stabilized phosphorus ylides

Reactions between AgX (X = OTf, NO₃) and ylides of the type Ph₃P = CHC(O)C₆H₄-4-R (R = F, Br, OMe) in molar ratio 1 : 2 lead to complexes [Ag{CH(PPh₃)C(O)C₆H₄-4-R}]X (1–4); X-ray structure determinations have been carried out on 4. The IR and NMR data of the products formed by reaction of Ag(I) with the ylides are consistent with C-bounded ylides. Analytical data indicate 1 : 2 stoichiometry between the ylide and Ag(I) in the products. The molar conductivities of these complexes are within the range for 1 : 1 electrolytes. Crystallographic data for 4 are: crystal system, triclinic; space group, P 1, a = 12.1151(4), b = 13.8989(5), c = 15.4855(5) Å, β = 102.676(3)°, V = 2477.82(15) ų, Z = 2.     

The Reaction of Ketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane (Ph3P˭C˭C˭O) with Acidic H‒E (E˭O,N) Bonds

Abstract

The reactivity of ketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane (1) with the protic reagents 2,4,6-trimethylphenol (7), 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (8), and diphenylamine (9) has been explored. Three novel carbonyl-stabilized ylides have been synthesized and characterized. Crystal structures were obtained for Ph₃PCHC(O)O(C₆H₂Me₃) (11), Ph₃PCHC(O)O(C₆H₂t-Bu₂Me) (12), and Ph₃PCHC(O)NPh₂ (13), respectively. These products were then methylated in an attempt to develop a new route to low-valent carbon compounds. Crystals of [Ph₃PCH(CH₃)C(O)O(C₆H₂Me₃)]I (14) were isolated and characterized but this route did not prove to be synthetically useful, at least toward the goal of preparing low-valent carbon-centered materials. Finally, 1 was also reacted with the bulky tin reagent, bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amido]tin(II), in the presence of 2,4,6-trimethylphenol. A complex mixture of products was obtained, from which crystals of an unusual chelated tin compound (15) were isolated and characterized using X-ray crystallography.     

New heteroorganic betaines containing the (+)E15—C—E14—X(–) and (+)E15—C—E14(–) structural fragments (E15 = P,As; E14 = Si,Ge, Sn; X = C,S, O,NR)

The review surveys the data on the reactions of phosphorus and arsenic ylides with compounds containing E=X bonds (E = C, Si, Ge, or Sn; X = C or S), cyclic oligomers (R₂ES)_n (n = 2 or 3), and heavier analogs of carbenes. These reactions give rise to two new classes of heteroorganic betaines containing the ⁽⁺⁾E¹⁵—C—E¹⁴—X^(–) (I) and ⁽⁺⁾E¹⁵—C—E^14(–) (II) (E¹⁵ = P or As; E¹⁴ = Si, Ge, or Sn; X = C or S) structural fragments. Procedures for the synthesis of these compounds, their reactivities, the X-ray diffraction structures, and the electronic structures established by high-level quantum-chemical calculations are considered in detail. The carbon analogs of betaines of type I, viz., compounds bearing the ⁽⁺⁾P—C—C—X^(–) fragment (III), are also discussed. The latter were long considered as possible intermediates in the reactions of compounds containing the polar C=X bond (X = C, O, S, NR, etc.) with phosphorus ylides (classical Wittig and Corey—Chaykovsky reactions and related processes).     

Structural,Theoretical, and Spectroscopic Study of Mercury(II) Complexes of two New Unsymmetric Phosphorus Ylides

Abstract

The reaction of Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂ (dppm) with 4-methylphenacyl bromide and 2-(bromoacetyl)naphthalene in chloroform produce the new phosphonium salts [Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂CH₂C(O)C₆H₄Me]Br (1) and [Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂CH₂C(O)C₁₀H₇]Br (2). Further, by reaction of the monophosphonium salts of dppm with the strong base Et₃N the corresponding bidentate phosphorus ylides, Ph₂PCH₂P(Ph)₂ = C(H)C(O)C₆H₄Me (3) and Ph₂PCH₂P(Ph)₂ = C(H)C(O)C₁₀H₇ (4) were obtained. The reaction of these ligands with mercury(II) halides in dry methanol led to the formation of the mononuclear complexes {HgX ₂[(Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂C(H)C(O)C₆H₄Me)]} [X = Cl (5), Br (6), and I (7)] and {HgX ₂[(Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂C(H)C(O)C₁₀H₇)]} [X = Cl (8), Br (9), and I (10)]. Characterization of the obtained compounds was performed by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H, ³¹P, and ¹³C NMR spectra. The structure of compounds 3 and 10 are unequivocally determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. X-ray analysis of 10 reveals the presence of mononuclear complex containing Hg atom in a distorted tetrahedral environment. In all complexes, the title ylides are coordinated through the ylidic carbon and the phosphine phosphorus. Computational studies on ligand 4 and complexes 8, 9, and 10 at DFT (B3LYP) level of theory are also reported. It was shown that the formation of P,C-coordinated 1+1 complex 10 is energetically more favored than corresponding P,P-coordinated 1+2 product.

Chemistry of polyfluorocarbanions 1. Nucleophilic iodofluorination of perfluoroalkyl vinyl ethers

Nucleophilic iodofluorination of perfluorovinyl methyl (I) and perfluorovinyl propyl (II) ethers by iodine chloride in nitrobenzene or sulfolan afforded 1-iodoperfluoro-1-methoxyethane (III) and 1-iodoperfluoro-l-propoxyethane in yields of 65 and 77%, respectively. In addition to compound (III), the reaction of perfluorovinyl methyl ether afforded two side products: l-iodo-2-chloroperfluoro-1-methoxyethane and 2-iodo-l-chloroperfluoro-1-methoxyethane. The latter products are formed via a radical reaction, which takes place under drastic conditions. On the basis of quantum chemical calculations of (I), (II), and the two anions formed from (I), CF₃OCFCF₃ (VI) and CF₃OCF₂CF₂ (VII), it is proposed that nucleophilic iodofluorination of perfluoroalkyl vinyl ethers involves the formation of thermodynamically more stable anions. The higher reactivity of (I) compared with (II) is in accord with the energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals and the charge density on the CF₂ carbon atoms.¹⁹F NMR spectra of the synthesized products are shown.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 669–672, March, 1991.     

Synthesis and reactions of phenyliodonium bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl) methides

Phenyliodonium bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl) methides PhI⁺ ⁻C(SO₂R_F)₂ ( 3 ) were prepared by the reaction of bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)methanes with diacetoxyiodobenzene. The photochemical reactions of 3 with alkenes, methanol, bromine, and benzene gave the corresponding addition or insertion products. When 3 was irradiated in the presence of methyl sulfide, pyridine, and triphenylphosphine, it afforded the ylides containing the bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)methylene functionality, Y⁺ ⁻C(SO₂R_F)₂. In these reactions the bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)carbene intermediate (R_FSO₂)₂C: may be involved. Irradiation or heating of 3 in DMSO gave a 1 : 1 complex, the structure of which was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)-methylene dimethyloxosulfonium ylides Me₂(O)S⁺ ⁻C(SO₂R_F)₂ were obtained by air oxidation of bis(perfluoroalkanesulfonyl)methylene dimethylsulfonium ylides.     

Ylide Chemistry: An Account of Structural,Conformational and Redox Investigations

Abstract

Structural data of phosphorus ylides are summarized and discussed. Conformational preferences in solution and in the solid state, as followed by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, indicate a strong gauche effect for the lone pairs of electrons at the ylidic carbon atom. One- and two-electron oxydation of ylide carbanions is accomplished with copper(II) as the oxidant, leading to oxidative coupling or to halogenation, respectively.     

A Facile,One-Pot Synthesis of Azoic Compounds and Anthraquinone Derivatives Containing Dialkyl Phosphoryl Moieties in Multicomponent Reactions

Protonation of the reactive 1:1 intermediates produced in the reactions between triphenylphosphine and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates by 1-amino-anthraquinone or 1,5-diphenylcarbazone as a core dye leads to vinyl phosphonium salts, which undergo Michael addition with conjugate base of NH compounds to produce stable phosphorus ylides as novel dyes in fairly good yields. These ylides can exist in two geometrical isomers (Z) and (E) for 3, because the negative charge of the ylide moiety of these compounds are strongly conjugated with the adjacent carbonyl group. Rotation around the carbon–carbon double bond is slow in the (Z) and (E) geometrical isomers on the NMR time scale at ambient temperature. These compounds are assigned by their IR, ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectral data as well as their mass spectroscopic data.     

Divergent Synthesis of Chelating Aziridines and Cyclic(Alkyl)(Amino)Carbenes (CAACs) from Pyridyl-Tethered Robust Azomethine Ylides

Azomethine ylides are typically in situ generated synthons for making N-heterocycles through cycloaddition reactions. But an offbeat aspect about them is the isomeric nature of aldiminium-based azomethine ylides and (alkyl/aryl)(amino)carbenes, interconvertible by a formal 1,3-H⁺ transfer. Herein, two thermally robust azomethine ylides with a N-appended picolyl sidearm are isolated, which cyclize to ^pyaziridines at 80 °C but unprecedentedly result ^N−picoCAAC-CuCl (CAAC=cyclic(alkyl)(amino)carbene) complexes when heated with CuCl at merely 60 °C. The pendant N_py, as revealed by computational analysis, plays a crucial role in this unusual 1,3-H⁺ shift using a deprotonation-protonation sequence, as well as in placing the CuCl at the carbenic site in tandem. The softer nature of Cu^(I) is also critical. Chelating CAACs are rare and one with a N-tethered additional donor is priorly unknown. Both ^N-picoCAAC and ^pyaziridine are bidentate chelators giving highly active cationic Rh^(I) catalysts for hydrosilylating unactivated olefins by Et₃SiH. Notably, the ^pyaziridine-Rh^(I) is superior than the ^N-picoCAAC-Rh^(I) catalyst.     

The Permanganate Ion in Alkaline Solutions as a Reagent for CS2N− 3Analytical Determination - A Potentiometric Method

Abstract

The oxidation of the 1, 2, 3, 4-thiatriazol-5-thiolate ion CS₂ N^? ₃by, permanganate ions in an alkaline medium was investigated. The pseudo-halide undergoes a quantitative seventeen-electron change reaction yielding sulphate, nitrogen and carbon dioxide as final products. Despite the similar chemical behavior exhibited by thiocyanate and CS₂N^? ₃ ions the experimental data strongly suggested that the oxidation reactions of the pseudo-halides dealt with in this study do not follow the same mechanism. On the basis of this reaction an oxidative analytical method was developed for the CS₂N^? ₃. The pseudo-halide is oxidized by an excess of permanganate ions. The remaining oxidant is titrated with standardized thalium (I) or hexacyanoferrate (II) solutions. Considerable improvements over former procedures were achieved employing two polarized platinum electrodes to detect the end point, by potentiometry. The method proposed here is simple, precise, accurate, rapid and allows the determination of pseudo-halide concentrations down to 1 × 10^?3 M.     

THIURAMDISELENIDES

Abstract

The oxidation products of thioseleno-carbamate ions R₂NCSSe^? are, in contrast with the homologous selenuramdiselenides, stable red, highly crystalline diselenides (R₂N = Et₂N, morpholyl, pyrrolidyl, Bz₂N) or yellow (cyclohexyl₂N). The ⁷⁷Se NMR spectra show one signal with chemical shifts between 1060 and 1125 ppm (referenced to Ph₃PSe). The x-ray structures of the tetraethyl (I) and tetracyclohexyl (II) compounds show unexpected differences. Whereas (I) contains an inversion center bisecting a planar NC(S)Se-Se(S)CN unit, we found for (II) a dihedral angle of 80.4 between two very different cyclohexyl₂ halves: S(1)-C(1)-Se(1) = 103.0° and S(2)-C(2)-Se(2) = 119.1°, respectively.     

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of multisubstituted N-fused heterocycles against the Hep-G2 cancer cell line

Abstract  

Pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazole and pyrrolo[2,1-b]thiazole derivatives were synthesized in a one-pot procedure by [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of the corresponding imidazolium ylides and thiazolium ylides with an alkene followed by oxidative aromatization of the primary cycloadducts under the action of the mild oxidant tetrakispyridinecobalt(II) dichromate. Antiproliferative activity of 14 new bicyclic N-fused heterocycles against the human hepatocellular liver carcinoma (Hep-G2) cell line were examined by the MTT method. Some of the compounds showed favorable antiproliferative activity, especially compound 3i displayed potent antiproliferative activities with an IC₅₀ value of 0.36 μg/cm³.     

SINGLET-TRIPLET SPIN TRANSITION IN AN IRON(II) COMPLEX OF 1,10-PHENANTHROLINE-2-CARBOTHIOAMIDE

Abstract

The ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer effect for the solid complex FeLCl₂·H₂O (L=10-phenanthroline-2-carbothioamide) has been studied between 4.2°K and 298°K. Two overlapping doublets (I and II) are observed, their relative intensity being strongly temperature dependent. The doublets are characterized by δE_Q(I)=0.53 mm sec^?1, δ^IS(I)=+ 0.22 mm sec^?1 and δE_Q(II)=1.33 mm sec^?1, δ^IS(II)=+0.23 mm sec^?1 at 4.2°K. In conjunction with magnetic data, the Mössbauer spectra are interpreted in terms of a singlet-triplet spin transition of the central iron(II) ion. In an applied magnetic field at 4.2°K, H_int=0, V_ZZ(I)>0, and V_ZZ(II)>0. The results are consistent with optical electronic and infrared vibrational spectra.     

Induced halogenation of alkyl cyclohexenyl ketones involving metal halides,hydrohalogenic acids,and hydrogen peroxide

The induced halogenation and hydroxyhalogenation of alkyl cyclohexenyl ketones in a system [MHlg + HHlg or HHlg]-H₂O₂ or in NaOCl was performed and optimum reaction conditions were established. Under mild conditions the electrophilic addition of the halogen or the acid occurred at the multiple bond of the ring with the formation of the corresponding dihalo or hydroxyhalo derivatives of cycloaliphatic ketones. From the compounds obtained epoxy- and dioxyketones of aliphatic series were prepared. Chloro(bromo)hydrins of ketones from the alkylcyclohexane series and oxiranes based thereon are reactive compounds and can be employed as synthons in the organic synthesis.

127I Mössbauer spectra for phenyliodonium ylides

¹²⁷I Mössbauer spectra for the phenyliodonium ylides were measured at 20 K. The valence electron populations (N_s, N_x-z) and the charge number (Z_I) for iodine atom are estimated from the Mössbauer parameters. The obtained populations were very close to those of diphenyliodonium chloride having two I-C primary bonds. To examine the possibility of some double bond character, the electron populations for the case of N_z = 1.90 are estimated. In this case, the Z_I values become larger as 1.2-1.3, and these values were unreasonably large because the values are close to those of PhICl₂, PhI(OAc)₂ having electron withdrawing ligands. Thereby, ¹²⁷I Mössbauer parameters suggest little double bond character for phenyliodonium ylides.     

Mandelazo I As A Reagent For Zr(IV) Determination

Abstract

A spectromeric study of the reaction of the Zr(IV) ions with Mandelazo I was carried out. Absorption spectra revealed that the maximum absorption of the zirconium compound appears at a wavelength (316 nm) different from the maxima of the reagent (253 and 390 nm). Beer-Lambert law is followed for zirconium concentrations of the order of 8.8x 10^?5 M (i.e. 8 μg Zr (IV)/mL). Possible interferences of ions such as Be(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Al(III), Th(IV), U(VI), Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II) and Ni(II) were investigated in connection with some masking agents such as SO₄ ^2- and C₂O₄ ^2-. Also, the solid state Zr(IV)-Mandelazo I compound was prepared and characterized by nitrogen and thermogravimetric analyses.
