Reaction of diphenyl[2-(triethoxysilyl)ethyl]phosphine oxide with boron trifluoride etherate

Diphenyl[2-(trifluorosilyl)ethyl]phosphine oxide was synthesized by the reaction of diphenyl[2-(triethoxysilyl)ethyl]phosphine oxide with boron trifluoride etherate. As shown by the ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁹F, ³¹P, ²⁹Si multinuclear NMR spectroscopy data, the silicon atom in the molecule is tetracoordinate. The absence of P=O→Si interaction in diphenyl[2-(trifluorosilyl)ethyl]phosphine oxide, as follows from the comparison of the calculated [GIAO B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,p)] and experimental δ(²⁹Si) and δ(³¹P) values, is due to the formation of complex with BF₃ by the phosphoryl oxygen.     

Dibromo[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)cyclopent-1-enyl]phosphine and Its Derivatives

Direct phosphorylation of 4-(1-cyclopent-1-enyl)anisole with PBr₃ was carried out. The resulting compound initially exists in two tautomeric forms. Isolation of the dibromophosphine and its further trans- formations lead to formation of a single tautomer.     

Synthesis of 2-(Bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yloxy)ethyl Carboxylates

Esterification of aliphatic carboxylic acids with 2-(bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yloxy)ethanol and 2-(5-methylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yloxy)ethanol in the presence of KU-2-8 cation exchanger (H⁺ form) afforded a series of new compounds containing both ester and ether moieties.     

Synthesis of [2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]uracil and [2-(allyloxy)ethyl]uracil

A synthesis is reported for N¹-mono- and N¹,N³-disubstituted uracil derivatives containing a terminal carbon-carbon double bond in the side-chain. Alkylation of vinyl 2-chloroethyl ether by uracil potassium salts leads to a mixture of 1-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl] and 1,3-di[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl] derivatives while treatment of 2,4-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)pyrimidines by vinyl 2-chloroethyl ether leads exclusively to N¹-monosubstituted products. Alkylation of cytosine by this chloroether gave 1-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]cytosine. The synthesis of 1-[2-(allyloxy)ethyl]uracil derivatives was carried out by treatment of uracil potassium salts by 1-(allyloxy)-2-(p-toluenesulfonyloxy)ethane.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 393–397, March, 1993.     

Metal ion catalysis in the beta-elimination reactions of N-[2-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium and N-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium in aqueous solution

Catalysis of the beta-elimination reaction of N-[2-(4-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium (1) and N-[2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl]quinuclidinium (2) by Zn(2+) and Cd(2+) in OH(-)/H(2)O (pH = 5.20-6.35, 50 degrees C, and mu = 1 M KCl) has been studied. In the presence of Zn(2+), the elimination reactions of both isomers occur from the Zn(2+)-complexed substrates (C). The equilibrium constants for the dissociation of the Zn(2+)-complexes are as follows: K(d) = 0.012 +/- 0.003 M (isomer 1) and K(d) = 0.065 +/- 0.020 M (isomer 2). The value of k(C)(H2O) for isomer 1 is 4.81 x 10(-6) s(-1). For isomer 2 both the rate constants for the "water" and OH(-)-induced reaction of the Zn(2+)-complexed substrate could be measured, despite the low concentration of OH(-) in the investigated reaction mixture [k(C)H2O)= 1.97 x 10(-6) s(-1) and k(C)(OH-)= 21.9 M(-1) s(-1), respectively]. The measured metal activating factor (MetAF), i.e., the reactivity ratio between the complexed and the uncomplexed substrate, is 8.1 x 10(4) for the OH(-)-induced elimination of 2. This high MetAF can be compared with the corresponding proton activating factor (Alunni, S.; Conti, A.; Palmizio Errico, R. J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 2 2000, 453), PAF = 1.5 x 10(6) and is in agreement with an E1cb irreversible mechanism (A(xh)D(E)* + D(N)) (Guthrie, R. D.; Jencks, W. P. Acc. Chem. Res. 1989, 22, 343). A value of k(C)(H2O)>or= 23 x 10(-7) s(-1) is estimated for the Cd(2+)-complexed isomer 2, while catalysis by Cd(2+) has not been observed for isomer 1.     

Psilocin analogs II. Synthesis of 3-[2-(dialkylamino)ethyl]-, 3-[2-(N-methyl-N-alkylamino)ethyl]-, and 3-[2-(cycloalkylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ols

Structural alteration of the N^b-substituents of psilocin (3-[2-dimethylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ol) ( 12a ) has led to a number of compounds containing known pharmacophoric groups. Further, it is hoped that the subtle changes in the nature of these substituents may lead to a clearer understanding of the structure-activity relationships of the 4-hydroxytryptamine hallucinogens.     

Psilocin analogs. 1. Synthesis of 3-[2-(dialkylamino)ethyl] -and 3-[2-(cycloalkylamino)ethyl] indol-4-ols

The synthesis of four dialkyl and three eyeloalkyl analogs of psilocin (4, R - CH₃), a hallucinogenic principle found in certain fungi, is described. The synthetic route involves four transformations starting with 6,7-dihydroindol-4(5H)one: (1).     

Atom-Economic Synthesis of Tris[2-(organylthio)ethyl]phosphine Oxides from Phosphine and Vinyl Sulfides

Abstract

Phosphine, generated from elemental phosphorus in the system KOH-toluene-H₂O, reacts with vinyl sulfides under free radical conditions (AIBN, dioxane, 65–70°C, atmospheric pressure) to form regiospecifically tris[2-(organylthio)ethyl]phosphines, which are readily oxidized in air to corresponding tris[2-(organylthio)ethyl]phosphine oxides.
