Thermodynamics of Bromo-Adamantane and Carbon Tetrabromide Under Pressure

Excess molar volumes at 298.15 K of the ternary system {CH₃(CH₂)₂CO₂(CH₂)₃CH₃+ CH₃(CH₂)₇OH+CH₃(CH₂)₆CH₃} and the binary mixtures {CH₃(CH₂)₂CO₂(CH₂)₃CH₃+ CH₃(CH₂)₇OH}, {CH₃(CH₂)₂CO₂(CH₂)₃CH₃+CH₃ (CH₂)₆CH₃} and {CH₃(CH₂)₇OH+ CH₃(CH₂)₆CH₃} were determined using an Anton Paar DMA 60/602 densimeter. All experimental values were compared with the results obtained with empirical expressions for estimation of the ternary properties from the binary data. Variable-degree polynomials were fitted to the results. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Summary The result of the chlorination of (CH₃CH₂NPF₃)₂ and (CH₃CH₂CH₂NPF₃)₂ with chlorine under UV-radiation were the new compounds CH₃CH₂(NPF₃)₂CH₂CH₂Cl and CH₃CH₂CH₂(NPF₃)₂CH₂CH₂CH₂Cl. The reaction of CH₃(NPF₃)₂CH₂Cl with KCN and crown-ether gave the new compound CH₃(NPF₃)₂CH₂CN.

     

Syndiotactic polymerization of styrene catalyzed by alkenyl‐substituted cyclopentadienyltitanium trichlorides

CH₂?CHCH₂CpTiCl₃ (1), CH₂?CHCH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ (2) and CH₃CH₂CH₃CpTiCl₃ (3) have been synthesized and characterized. The influence of the alkenyl substituent groups on the catalyst activities in the syndiotactic polymerization of styrene was investigated. The catalyst activities decreased in the order CH₂?CHCH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₃CH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₂?CHCH₂CpTiCl₃ (Cp?C₅H₄). By using complex 1, the dependence of the activity on the concentration of methylaluminoxane, triisobutylaluminum and diisobutylaluminum hydride was investigated.

Competing dissociation of and bond formation between CH3CHOH+ and .CH2CH3 formed by bimolecular processes

The C₄H₁₀O^.+ potential energy surface was accessed at several energies through different ion/molecule reactions. Reaction of CH₃CH^.+₃ with CH₃CHO and CH₃CHO^.+ with CH₃CH₃ gave predominantly CH₃CHOH⁺ +^. CH₂CH₃ and small amounts of CH₃CH₂CHOH⁺ +^. CH₃. CH₃CH^.+₃ also produced a small amount of CH₃CHO⁺CH₃ +^. CH₃ upon reaction with CH₃CHO. CH₂ = CHOH^. + did not react with CH₃CH₃. CH₃CH₂OH^. + reacted CH₂ = CH₂ and CH₂ = CH^.+₂ with CH₃CH₂OH to produce CH₃CH₂OH⁺₂ and CH₃CHOH⁺, but only the second pair of reactants produced detectable C₃H₇O⁺ ions. CH₃CH₂CHO.+⁺CH₄ produced only CH₃CH₂CHOH⁺. In all of the reactions examined, initial proton or H-transfer was much more often followed by simple dissociation than by CC bond formation or multiple H-transfers. This contrasts with the metastable decompositions of ionized 2-butanol, in which elimination of ethane and methane through the complexes [CH₃CHOH^+.CH₂CH₃] and [CH₃CH₂CHOH^+.CH₃] are important processes. This contrast is attributed to the ion/molecule reactions taking place in a higher energy regime than the metastable decompositions.     

Reactions of the nitrate radical with a series of reduced organic sulphur compounds in air

A 480 L evacuable reaction chamber, equipped with FT-IR spectroscopy on-line and ion chromatography off-line, has been used to study the gas phase reaction between the nitrate radical, NO₃, and the reduced organic sulphur compounds CH₃CH₂SH, (CH₃CH₂)₂S, (CH₃CH₂)₂S₂, and CH₃CH₂SCH₃ in air. The products CH₃CH₂SO₃H, SO₂, H₂SO₄, CH₃CHO, and CH₃CH₂ONO₂ were identified and quantified in the reactions of the first three compounds, CH₃CH₂SH, (CH₃CH₂)₂S, and (CH₃CH₂)₂S₂. The reaction products were CH₃CH₂SO₃H, CH₃SO₃H, SO₂, H₂SO₄, CH₃CHO, and CH₂O in the reaction of CH₃CH₂SCH₃. On the basis of identified reaction products and intermediates observed in the infrared spectra, mechanisms are proposed for the reactions between the NO₃ radical and the four reduced organic sulphur compounds. The results of this study, together with those from previous experiments performed in this laboratory on CH₃SCH₃, CH₃SH, and CH₃SSCH₃ lead to the conclusion that all these species, in the reaction with the NO₃ radical, follow a similar degradation mechanism producing SO₂, H₂SO₄, R? SO₃H, R? CHO, and R? CH₂ONO₂, as the main reaction products. The inital step of the reaction of NO₃ with R? S? R and R? S? H type (R = CH₃, CH₂CH₃) reduced organic sulphur compounds was found to be H-atom abstraction, probably after the formation of an initial adduct. For the reaction between NO₃ and R? S? S? R type compounds, evidence for an addition-decomposition reaction, as the initial steps, was obtained. R? S·, R? S(O)·, and R? S(O)₂· appear to be formed as intermediates in all the reactions. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Excess Molar Enthalpies of the Ternary System {x1CH3CH2COOCH2CH3+x2CH3(CH2)4CH3+(1-x1-x2)CH3CH2CH2OH} at 298.15 K,and Prediction Using Different Theoric Methods

Abstract

Excess molar enthalpies at the temperature 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure of the ternary mixture {x₁CH₃CH₂COOCH₂CH₃+x₂CH₃(CH₂)₄CH₃+(1-x₁-x₂)CH₃CH₂CH₂OH}and of the involved binary mixtures {xCH₃CH₂COOCH₂CH₃+(1-x)CH₃CH₂CH₂OH} and {xCH₃(CH₂)₄CH₃ + (1-x)CH₃CH₂CH₂OH}were measured using a Calvet microcalorimeter. Variable degree polynomials were fitted to the results. The group contribution models of Nitta-Chao and UNIFAC (versions of Tassios, Larsen and Gmehling) were used to estimate ternary excess enthalpy values, and the results were compared to the experimental data. Several empirical expressions for estimating ternary properties from binary results were also applied.     

Reactions of ionized dibutyl ether

The reactions of ionized di-n-butyl ether are reported and compared with those of ionized n-butyl sec-butyl and di-sec-butyl ether. The main fragmentation of metastable (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂)₂O^+. is C₂H₅? loss (?85%), but minor amounts (2–4%) of CH₃?, C₄H₇?, C₄H₉?, C₄H₁₀ and C₄H₁₀O are also eliminated. In contrast, C₂H₅? elimination is of much lower abundance (20 and 4%, respectively) from metastable CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OCH(CH₃)CH₂CH₃^+. and [CH₃CH₂(CH₃)CH]₂O^+., which expel mainly C₂H₆ and CH₃? (35–55%). Studies on collisional activation spectra of the C₆H₁₃O⁺ oxonium ions reveal that C₂H₅? loss from (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂)₂O^+. gives the same product, (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂ ⁺O?CHCH₃) as that formed by direct cleavage of CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OCH(CH₃)CH₂CH₃^+.. Elimination of C₂H₅? from (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂)₂O^+. is interpreted by means of a mechanism in which a 1,4-H shift to the oxygen atom initiates a unidirectional skeletal rearrangement to CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OCH(CH₃)CH₂CH₃^+., which then undergoes cleavage to CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂⁺O?CHCH₃ and C₂H₅?. Further support for this mechanism is obtained from considering the collisional activation and neutralization-reionization mass spectra of the (C₄H₉)₂O^+. species and the behaviour of labelled analogues of (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂)₂O^+.. The rate of ethyl radical loss is suppressed relative to those of alternative dissociations by deuteriation at the γ-position of either or both butyl substituents. Moreover, C₂H₅? loss via skeletal rearrangement and fragmentation of the unlabelled butyl group in CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂CD₂CH₃^+. occurs approximately five times more rapidly than C₂H₄D? expulsion via isomerization and fission of the labelled butyl substituent. These findings indicate that the initial 1,4-hydrogen shift is influenced by a significant isotope effect, as would be expected if this step is rate limiting in ethyl radical loss.     

NEW PHTHALOCYANINE PHOTOSENSITIZERS FOR PHOTODYNAMIC THERAPY

Six new aluminum and silicon phthalocyanines have been synthesized and their photocytotoxicity toward V79 cells has been studied. The compounds that have been prepared are: AIPcOSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂),N(CH₃)₂, I; AIPcOSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₃N(CH₃)₃⁺I^?, II; CH₃SiPcOSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₃N(CH₃)₂, III; HOSiPcOSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₃N(CH₃)₂, IV; HOSiPcOSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₃)₃(CH₃)₃⁺I^?, V; and SiPc[OSi(CH₃)₂(CH₂)₃N(CH₃)₃⁺I^?]₂, VI. Relative growth delay values for compounds I-VI and relative cytotoxicity values for compounds I, II, IV, V and VI have been determined. Compounds I and II have been shown to be comparable in photocytotoxicity to what is presumed to be AIPcOH.xH₂O, and compound IV has been shown to have greater activity. The classes of compounds to which these six compounds belong appear to have potential for photodynamic therapy.     

New deoxygenative transformations; reactions of (CO)4Fe[Si(CH3)3]2 with acyclic ethers

The reaction of cis-(CO)₄Fe[Si(CH₃)₃]₂ (I) with CH₃OSi(CH₃)₃ and C₆H₅CH₂-OSi(CH₃)₃ at 80°C affords good yields of [(CH₃)₃Si]₂O and the deoxygenation products RSi(CH₃)₃ (R = CH₃, C₆H₅CH₂). These reactions are proposed to occur via (CO)₄Fe(R)Si(CH₃)₃ intermediates. This is supported by the observed formation of cis-(CO)₄Fe(CH₃)Si(CH₃)₃ (II) during the more rapid reaction of I with (CH₃)₂O; subsequent (CH₃)₄Si elimination occurs. With (C₆H₅CH₂)₂O, I reacts at 80°C to yield C₆H₅CH₂Si(CH₃)₃ and C₆H₅CH₂OSi(CH₃)₃ as primary products. With C₆H₅CH₂OCH₃, I effects regioselective benzyl---oxygen bond cleavage.

From Saturated BN Compounds to Isoelectronic BN/CC Counterparts: An Insight from Computational Perspective

In the present study, the inorganic analogues of alkanes as well as their isoelectronic BN/CC counterparts that bridge the gap between organic and inorganic chemistry are comparatively studied on the grounds of static DFT and Car–Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations. The BN/CC butanes CH₃CH₂BH₂NH₃, BH₃CH₂NH₂CH₃, and NH₃CH₂BH₂CH₃ were considered and compared with their isoelectronic counterparts NH₃BH₂NH₂BH₃ and CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃. In addition, systematical replacement of the NH₂BH₂ fragment by the isoelectronic CH₂CH₂ moiety is studied in the molecules H₃N(NH₂BH₂)_3–m(CH₂CH₂)_mBH₃ (for m=0, 1, 2, or 3) and H₃N(NH₂BH₂)_2–m(CH₂CH₂)_mBH₃ (for m=0, 1, or 2). The DFT and Car–Parrinello simulations show that the isosteres of the BN/CC butanes CH₃CH₂BH₂NH₃, BH₃CH₂NH₂CH₃, and NH₃CH₂BH₂CH₃ and of larger oligomers of the type (BN)_k(CC)_l where k≥l are stable compounds. The BN/CC butane H₃NCH₂CH₂BH₃ spontaneously produces molecular hydrogen at room temperature. The reaction, prompted by very strong dihydrogen bonding NH???HB, undergoes through the neutral, hypervalent, pentacoordinated boron dihydrogen complex R?BH₂(H₂) [R=(CH₂CH₂)_nNH₂]. The calculations suggest that such intermediate and the other BN/CC butanes CH₃CH₂BH₂NH₃, BH₃CH₂NH₂CH₃, and NH₃CH₂BH₂CH₃ as well as larger BN/CC oligomers are viable experimentally. A simple recipe for the synthesis of CH₃CH₂BH₂NH₃ is proposed. The strength of the dihydrogen bonding appeared to be crucial for the overall stability of the saturated BN/CC derivatives.

The reaction of 1,1,1-tris(diiodarsinomethyl)ethane, CH₃C(CH₂AsI₂)₃ (I), with i-C₃H₇NH₂, n-C₄H₉NH₂, C₆H₅NH₂, p-CH₃C₆H₄NH₂ and [(CH₃)₃Si]₂NH in the presence of (C₂H₅)₃N as auxiliary base in THF gives the adamantane cage compounds CH₃C(CH₂AsNC₃H₇)₃ (III), CH₃C(CH₂AsNC₄H₉)₃ (IV), CH₃C(CH₂AsNC₆H₅)₃ (V), CH₃C(CH₂AsNC₆H₄CH₃)₃ (VI) and CH₃C[CH₂AsNSi(CH₃)₃]₃ (VII). VII is also obtained in the reaction of I with NaN[Si(CH₃)₃]₂. The by-product (CH₃)₃SiO(CH₂)₄I (VIII) could be isolated in both syntheses of VII. All compounds have been characterized by mass spectrometry and infrared, Raman and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Bis(triphenylphosphine)platinum acetylides from functionally substituted acetylenes. A new synthesis method

A general procedure, giving high yields for the synthesis of (Ph₃P)₂Pt(CCR)₂ complexes (R = C₆H₅, C(CH₂)CH₃, (CH₂)₆CCH, CH₂OH, CH(OH)CH₃, CH(OH)C₆H₅, CH₂CH(OH)CH₃, C(OH)(CH₃)CH₃, C₆H₁₀OH, C(OH)(CH₃)CH₂CH₃, CH₂NHCH₃, CH₂NHCH₂C₆H₅, CH₂N(CH₃)₂, CH₂N(C₂H₅)₂) is reported.

Kinetic energy release distributions (KERDs) for the dissociation of metastable enol ions

Bimodal kinetic energy release distributions (KERDs) were obtained for the metastable ion reactions: CH₃C(OH) = ^*CH₂?⁺ → CH₃ + ^*CH₃CO⁺ and CH₃CH₂C(OH)=CH₂?⁺ → C₂H₅ + CH₃CO⁺. The bimodality is attributed to incomplete intramolecular energy redistribution in the short-lived intermediate keto ions, CH₃COCH₃?⁺ and CH₃CH₂COCH₃?⁺, respectivley, formed en route to the dissociation products.     

The Effects of β-Cyclodextrin On the Fluorescence,Uv Absorption and Solubility of Selected Bimanes In Aqueous Solutions

Abstract

The effects of β-cyclodextrin were investigated on the fluorescence emission and excitation as well as on the UV absorption and solubility of certain bimanes in aqueous solution. Three syn-bimanes with differing water solubilities were examined, namely, syn-(CH₂OCOCH₃, CH₃) bimane, syn-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane, and syn-(C₆H₃, Cl) bimane. the anti-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane was also examined. In dilute solutions, the syn-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane and syn-(C₆H₃, Cl) bimane showed enhancement of their relative fluorescence intensities upon the addition of β-cyclodextrin as did anti-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane. Only the anti-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane showed significant changes in its UV absorption upon the addition of β-cyclodextrin. Both syn-(CH₂OCOCH₃, CH₃) bimane and syn-(CH₃, CH₃) bimane solubilities were increased in the presence of β-CD. the formation of β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes is proposed as a possible interpretation of these observations.     

Substitutionsreaktionen mit Schwefeldiimiden

Substitution Reactions with Sulphur Diimides Substituted sulphur diimides are obtained by the reactions of (CH₃)₃Si? N?S?N? Si(CH₃)₃ with CH₃SO₂Cl and CCl₃SCl or with P₂O₃F₄ and (CH₃)₃Si? N?S?N? SN(CH₃)₂. S₄N₄ reacts with (CH₃)₂Si[N(CH₃)₂]₂ to from (CH₃)₂Si(N(CH₃)₂)? N?S?N? SN(CH₃)₂ while S₃N₂Cl₂ yields (CH₃)₂Si(Cl)? N?S?N? SN(CH₃)₂. It is possible to substitute the chlorine atom by diethylamine in the last compound. The new compounds are intermediates for the syntheses of cyclic sulphur-nitrogen compounds. They were characterized by mass-, ir-, ¹H-nmr spectra and elemental analysis.     

Initiation reactivity of anionic polymerization of fluorinated acrylates and methacrylates with diethyl(ethyl cyanoacetato)aluminum

Pseudo first‐order rate constants of the reaction of diethyl(ethyl cyanoacetato)aluminum [(C₂H₅)₂Al(NCCHCOOC₂H₅)] with 17 fluorinated acrylates and methacrylates and five hydrocarbon analogs for references were investigated to examine the initiation reactivities of the anionic polymerization of fluorinated vinyl monomers to afford the reactivity order: CH₂?C(CF₃)COOC₂H₅ > CH₂?C(CF₃)COOCH(CH₃)₂ > CH₂?CHCOOCH₂C₆F₅ > CH₂?C(CF₃)COOC(CH₃)₃ > CH₂?C(CF₃)COOCH₂C₆F₅ > CH₂?C(CF₃)COOCH(CF₃)₂ ≥ CH₂?CHCOOCH₃ > CH₂?CHCOOCH₂C₆H₅ ≥ CH₂?C(CF₃)COOCH₂CF₃ > CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₂C₆F₅ > CH₂?CHCOOCH₂CF₃ > CH₂?CHCOOCH₂C₂F₅ > CH₂?CHCOOCH(CF₃)₂ > CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₃ > CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₂C₆H₅ ≥ CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₂CH₂C₈F₁₇ > CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH(CH₃)₂ > CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₂C₂F₅ ≥ CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH₂CF₃. No rate constants for CH₂?C(CH₃)COOCH(CF₃)₂, CH₂?CFCOOC(CH₃)₃, and CH₂?CFCOOCH₂C₂F₅ were obtained because of too fast polymerization. The incorporation of a trifluoromethyl group into the vinyl group enhanced the reactivity toward the delocalized carbanion. The reactivity of other fluorinated acrylates and methacrylates was concluded to approximately be controlled by the fluorine contents and the bulkiness of substituents of monomers. The reactivity was generally decreased by increasing fluorine contents of fluoroalkyl substituents in ester groups. © Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 46: 7011–7021, 2008
