Preparation of N,N,N′-tris(trimethylsilyl)amidines; a convenient route to unsubstituted amidines

The tris(trimethylsilyl)amidines RC(NSiMe₃)N(SiMe₃)₂ (R  C₆H₅, p-CH₃C₆-H₄, p-ClC₆H₄, p-MeOC₆H₄, p-Me₂NC₆H₄, p-CF₃C₆H₄, p-C₆H₅C₆H₄ and CF₃) are prepared by the reaction of the respective nitriles with (Me₃Si)₂NLi·OEt₂ in ether to give intermediates RC(NLi)N(SiMe₃)₂. Heating these intermediates with ClSiMe₃ in toluene affords the products, which are isolated by vacuum distillation, in high yield. With 1,4-dicyanobenzene, two equivalents of reagents affords the per(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-diamidine. Hydrolysis of the intermediates with 6N ethanolic HCl affords the unsubstituted amidine hydrochlorides RC(NH)NH₂·HCl (R  C₆-H₅, p-MeOCh₆H₄, p-ClC₆H₄, p-O₂NC₆H₄) in high yield.     

N,N,N′,N′-tetrabutylsuccinylamide as a new extractant in n-dodecane for extraction of uranium(VI) and thorium(IV) ions

N,N,N,N-tetrabutylsuccinylamide (TBSA) was synthesized, characterised and used for the extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV) from nitric acid solutions into n-dodecane. Extraction distribution coefficients of U(VI) and Th(IV) as a function of aqueous nitric acid concentration, extractant concentration and temperature have been measured and found that n-dodecane as diluent was superior to 50% 1,2,4-trimethyl benzene (TMB) and 50% kerosene, (OK) system for extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV). The compositions of extracted species, equilibrium constants and enthalpies of extraction reactions have also been calculated. The formation of the 121 complex of uranyl(II) ion or the 141 complex of thorium(IV) ion, nitrate ion and TBSA and extracted species was further confirmed by the IR spectra of saturated extract of U(IV) and Th(IV).

Kristallstruktur von N,N,N′,N′-Tetraisopropyl-p-phenylen-diammonium-dichlorid und-bis(tetrachloroaluminat)

Summary Protonation of the sterically overcrowded N,N,N,N-tetraisopropyl-p-phenylenediamine leads to a significant shortening of the C-N bond lengths of 7 pm as well as to a widening of the phenyl ipso-angle to 122°. All structural changes can be attributed to the twisted diisopropylammonium substituents and their electron acceptor properties.

Five coordinate complexes of N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide with copper Crystal and molecular structures of dichloro(N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamido)copper(II) and chloro(perchlorato)(N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamido)copper(II)

The title compound N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (DEAP) forms a 1:1 complex with anhydrous CuCl₂, [Cu(DEAP)Cl₂], (1) which was crystallized from EtOH solution in the monoclinic space group P2_{1/ n} with cell constant, a = 10.024(1); b = 13.122(1); c = 14.404(1) Å β = 101.31(1)° V = 1857.8(3) ų and Z = 4. The chloro-perchlorato complex, [Cu(DEAP)Cl(ClO₄)], (2) obtained in near quantitative yield by reacting (1) with an excess of NaClO₄ in EtOH, crystallized in the monoclinic space group P2_{1/ n} with cell constants, a = 7.965(1); b = 25.827(2); c = 10.046(1) Å β = 98.81(1)° V = 2042.2(4) ų and Z = 4. Both (1) and (2) contain 5-coordinated copper linked to DEAP through O～N～O donor set of atoms with covalently bonded chlorine atoms in (1) and chlorine and perchlorate groups in (2). The coordination geometry is intermediate between square pyramidal and trigonal bipyramidal, and is probably best described as a trigonally distorted rectangular pyramid.     

Extraction of americium(III) and europium(III) using a gamma pre-irradiated solution of N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dibutyltetradecyl malonamide in n-dodecane modified with N,N′-dihexyloctanamide

The extraction of Am(III) and Eu(III) using a γ-pre-irradiated N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-dibutyltetradecyl malonamide (DMDBTDMA) modified with N,N′-dihexyloctanamide (DHOA) in n-dodecane (NDD) at 4.5M HNO₃ has been studied as a function of the absorbed dose up to 2×10⁶ Gray. The distribution ratios of Am(III) and Eu(III) were almost constant until a dose of 1×10⁵ Gray and then they decreased gradually up to a dose of 2×10⁶ Gray. The decrease of the distribution ratios of Am(III) and Eu(III) are due to the decreasing concentration of the DMDBTDMA by a γ-pre-irradiation and these results were supported by a determination of the DMDBTDMA concentration with a gas chromatography method. The distribution ratios of Am(III), Eu(III), Ce, Nd and Y with γ-pre-irradiated (DMDBTDMA-DHOA)/NDD have also been studied as a function of the nitric acid concentration and the extraction temperature.

The values of thermodynamic parameters have also been calculated.

Recently, β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds have become increasingly useful as intermediates in organic synthesis. For example, reactions involving a number of different cyclic β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated ketones with a variety of reagents (a malonate anion², the anion of the dithiolane derivative of ethyl glyoxalate³, zinc-silver couple in methanol⁴, dimethylsulfoxonium methylide^5,6) have produced a series of structurally diverse and potentially fruitful synthetic intermediates. The second-mentioned reagent has also been successfully reacted with a β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated ester³.

The interaction of N,N′-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine), H₂salen, with ammonium molybdate yielded the molybdenum(VI) complex MoO₂(salen) with the cis-dioxostructure as inferred from IR spectral studies. The ¹H NMR chemical shifts of azomethine protons in the free ligand and the complex are 8.14 and 8.39 δ, respectively, suggesting the bonding of the azomethine nitrogen to MoO₂ group. The thermal decomposition behaviour of the complex is discussed.

Extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV) from nitric acid solutions with N,N,N′,N′-tetrahexylsuccinylamide

The results of monitoring of⁸⁵Kr volume activity in ground-level air of Prague over the period 1989–1995 are summariyed. Seasonal dependence with a maximum in late spring and summer months and a gradual increase of⁸⁵Kr concentration in the atmosphere were observed. Linear approximation of long-term trend in the period 1983–1995 gives the growth rate of 35 mBq·m^–3 per year. Exponential approximation provides an inter-year growth by 3.7% The measured values were compared to the prognosis of⁸⁵Kr contamination development of the atmosphere from the early 1980s. They were found to be near to the low estimate of the assumed development.     

Synthesis,characterization and nucleolytic property of bis(N,N′-dimethylglycinato)copper(II)

Aquabis(N,N-dimethylglycinato)copper(II) dihydrate, [Cu(dmg)₂(H₂O)]·2H₂O, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, magnetic data, thermal analysis, solution UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray crystal structure analysis and electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy. The square pyramidal copper(II) complex crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁. The complex cleaves circular plasmid DNA (pBR322) in the presence of H₂O₂. The extent of cleavage varies with the concentration range of the complex, the type of buffer used, pH of buffer and the concentration of H₂O₂. Hydroxyl radical scavenger can inhibit the nucleolytic ability of this complex.     

Monomeric copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes of N,N,N′,N′-tetrakis [(2-benzimidazolyl)methyl]-1,2-cyclohexanediamine], a chelating ligand containing imidazole groups

Summary Cu^II and Ni^II coordination compounds with N,N,N,N-tetrakis[(2-benzimidazolyl)methyl]-1,2-cyclohexanediamine (CDTB) have been prepared and characterized. The crystal structure of [Cu(CDTB)](ClO₄)₂ has been determined. The geometry around the Cu atom is highly irregular and can best be described as a cis-distorted octahedron, with four short CuN bond distances of 1.988(3) Å and 2.028(3) Å, and two very long CuN bond lengths of 2.543(4) A. The cis NCuN chelate angles in the complex range from 68.8(2) for N(1)CuN(1) to 141.03° for N(4)CuN(1). The cyclic voltammogram of the complex shows a fully reversible one-electron redox wave at E _1/2 = 0.162V versus standard calomel electrode, corresponding to the Cu^I/II redox couple. The structure of [Ni(CDTB)](NO₃)₂ ·EtOH has also been determined. The geometry around the Ni atom in this compound can be described as distorted octahedral, with N(4), N(4), N(1), N(1) as the ligating atoms in the basal plane, with cis chelate angles ranging from 79.37(10) to 120.9(2)° with the trans N(2)NiN(2) angle at 175.1(2)°. The structural differences in these two compounds are undoubtedly electronic rather than steric.

Synthesis and X-ray crystal structures of N,N,N′,N′-tetraalkylpyridine-2,6-dithiocarboxamides (S-dapt) complexes of cobalt(II) and nickel(II)

Reactions of anhydrous CoX₂ (X?=?Br^?, SCN^?) and Ni(ClO₄)₂ with N,N,N′,N′-tetraisobutylpyridine-2,6-dithiocarboxamides (S-dbpt), N,N,N′,N′-tetraisopropyl pyridine-2,6-dithiocarboxamides (S-dppt), and N,N,N′,N′-tetraethylpyridine-2,6-dithiocarboxamides (S-dept) lead to the formation of [Co(S-dbpt)Br₂] (1), [Co(S-dppt)(SCN)₂] (2), and [Ni(S-dept)₂]·(ClO₄)₂·H₂O (3), respectively. The X-ray crystal structures of the three S-dapt ligands and three complexes along with spectroscopic analyzes are presented. The molecular structure investigations of the S-dapt ligands show that the thiamide planes are twisted with respect to the pyridine ring, which is more in the case of phenyl groups. The structures of the Co(II) complexes reveal that an increase in steric crowding on the amide side arms of the ligands has no substantial effect on the geometry adopted by the corresponding complexes. The Co(II) gives only 1?:?1 five-coordinate, ion-paired complexes with a distorted square pyramidal geometry. Ni(II), on the other hand, prefers an octahedral geometry with 1?:?2 metal–ligand ratio. The coordination behavior of S-dapt has been compared to the analogous oxo(O-daap) ligands. Lesser propensity of S atom to get involved in H-bonding interactions ensures an S-N-S type of tridentate coordination by S-dapt.     

Radiolysis of cerium(III) 1,2-bis(β-aminoethoxy)ethane N,N,N′,N′-sodium sulfonate triacetic acid chelate

The publication describes chelation studies of cerium(III) with 1,2-bis(-aminoethoxy)-ethane N,N,N,N-sodium sulfonate triacetic acid (ASTA). The results showed the effectiveness of ASTA as a chelating agent by molar ratio, continuous variation and slope ratio methods. Stable 11 complex was formed at pH from 4 to 8. Aqueous solutions of the chelate of different mole ratios at pH and 7.5 were irradiated by -radiation with different doses. The results show that a decrease of absorbance with increasing absorbed dose was obtained in the dose range studied. A proposed radiolytic mechanism is discussed. The degradation of ligand was due to OH radical.
