Reactions of some 2-oxo-1,3,2-oxathiaphospholanes and 2-oxo-1,3,2-phosphorinanes with phosphorus pentachloride

2-Phenoxy- and 2-dialkylamino-2-oxa-1,3,2-oxathiaphospholanes react with PCl₅ with ring opening and formation of the corresponding acid chlorides of thiophosphoric acid. Under analogous conditions, 2-phenoxy-2-oxo-1,3,2-oxathiaphosphorinanes do not react with PCl₅, while acid chlorides of thiophosphoric acid are formed in low yield along with other products in the reaction of 2-dialkylamino-2-oxo-1,3,2-oxthiaphosphorinanes with PCl₅.A.

Synthesis and properties of symm-triazines. 3. Reactions of 2-alkyl-4,6-bistrichloromethyl-symm-triazines containing higher alkyl groups with ammonia and aliphatic amines

The reaction of 2-alkyl-4,6-bistrichloromethyl-symm-triazines containing higher alkyl groups with ammonia or aliphatic amines results, depending on the reaction conditions, in the replacement of one or both trichloromethyl groups. On heating these symm-triazines with aqueous ammonia or dimethylamine, 2-oxo-4-amino-6-alkyl-1(3)H-symm-triazines are obtained.For communication 2, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1557–1563, November, 1985.

Synthesis of fluorine-containing alkyl 2-cyano-3-oxocarboxylates. Reactions with nucleophiles

Fluorine-containing alkyl 2-cyano-3-oxocarboxylates were synthesized for the first time by the reaction of ethyl cyanoacetate with fluorine-substituted carboxylic acid halides or alkyl carboxylates. The reactions with hydrazine hydrate, phenylhydrazine, ando-phenylenediamine give hydrazinium (ammonium) enolates or products of acid decomposition. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Stereochemistry of the formation of 2-alkyl-4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes

It is demonstrated with the help of¹H and¹³C NMR spectroscopy and GLC that the formation of the stereoisomers of 2-alkyl-4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes from 2-methyl-1,3-butanediol and acyclic boric acid esters occurs stereospecifically. This conclusion was confirmed by calculations of the optimal geometries and relative energies of the molecules of thecis-andtrans-isomers of model 4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes and the proposed intermediate with a tetravalent boron atom using the method of molecular mechanics.A.

Polymerization of cyclic esters of phosphoric acid. VI. Poly(alkyl ethylene phosphates). Polymerization of 2-alkoxy-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholans and structure of polymers

Five-membered cyclic esters of phosphoric acid of the general formula: ? CH₂CH(R)OP(O)-(OR′)O? polymerize readily to solid, soluble polymers of high molecular weight without any rearrangement known for various tri- and pentavalent organophosphorus monomers. ¹H-, ¹³C-, and ³¹P-NMR spectra of polymers confirmed their linear structure: where R is H, with R′ = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, i-C₃H₇; n-C₄H₉, CCl₃CH₂, or C₆H₅, or R is CH₂Cl and R′ is C₂H₅. The use of n-C₄H₉Li, (C₅H₅)₂Mg, or (i-C₄H₉)₃Al as initiators leads to polymers with M _n = 10⁴–10⁵.
