Addition von organomagnesium-verbindungen an nicht aktivierte CC-doppelbindungen: III. 2-alkenylmagnesiumhalogenide und bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-en

2-Methyl-2-propenyl- (I) and 2-Butenylmagnesium halide (II) react with bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-en (III) erhaltenen $\text{1}\text{1}$-Addukte (IV) und (V) lagern sich converted by heating under opening of one 5-ring. On the basis of the products of hydrolysis, the dialkenylcyclopentanes (X) and (XI), formed by conversion of (V), the mechanism of this reaction hitherto unknown for a saturated 5-cyclic compound is discussed.     

3-methylthio-1,2-dithiolylium salts : Reaction with 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one and 4-hydroxycoumarin

The reaction of 4- and 5-aryl-3-methylthio-1,2-dithiolylium iodides with 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-2$\text{H}$-pyran-2-one and 4-hydroxycoumarin has been studied. 4-Substituted salts yielded 3-aryl-7-methyl-2-thioxo-2$\text{H}$,5$\text{H}$-pyrano [3,2-c]pyran-5-ones and 3-aryl-2-thioxo-2H,5H-pyrano[3,2-c]benzo[e]pyran-5-ones, respectively, whereas 5-substituted salts gave rise to 3-(5′-aryl-1′,2′-dithiol-3′-ylidene)-6-methyl-2$\text{H}$-pyran-2,4-diones and 3-(5′-aryl-1′,2′-dithiol-3′-ylidene)-2$\text{H}$-benzo [b]-pyran-2,4-diones.     

Synthesis with immobilized enzymes of two trisaccharides,one of them active as the determinant of a stage antigen.

Glycosidation of disaccharides I and III with a system of five immobilized enzymes gave excellent yields of trisaccharides $\text{β-D}$-Gal-(1→4)-$\text{β-D}$-GlcNAc-(1→6)-$\text{D}$-Gal ¦ the I(Ma) determinant ¦ and $\text{β-D}$-Gal-(1→4)-$\text{β-D}$-Glc-NAc-(1→3)-$\text{D}$-Gal, on the milimole scale.     

Fluorocarbon derivatives of nitrogen. Part VII [1]. Reaction of N-iminopyridinium ylide with perfluoro-1-azacyclohexene,perfluoro-2-azapropene,and perfluoroacetonitrile

The novel ylides (II) and (III) have been obtained $\text{via}$ treatment of perfluoro-1-azacyclohexene and perfluoro-2-azapropene, respectively, with $\text{N}$-iminopyridinium ylide (I) generated $\text{in}$$\text{situ}$ from $\text{N}$-aminopyridinium iodide and anhydrous potassium carbonate in methylene chloride. A mixture of the $\text{s}$-triazolo[1,5-$\text{a}$]pyridine (IV) and a compound thought to be its dihydro-analogue (V) were isolated following attack on perfluoroacetonitrile by the parent ylide (I); the former product was also prepared by heating 1,2-diamino-pyridinium iodide with trifluoroacetic anhydride.     

Ligandbewegungen in űbergangsmetallkomplexen XI 1H-NMR-spektroskopische untersuchungen an acetylacetonat-bis(olefin)-rhodium(I)-komplexen

The temperature-dependent ¹H NMR spectra of acetylacetonatebis(ethylene)-rhodium, (acac)Rh(C₂H₄)₂ (I), of some related complexes containing methoxy-substituted ethylenes have been measured in toluene-d₈ solution. Both monosubstituted [(acac)Rh(C₂H₄)(olefin), olefin = tetramethoxyethylene (II), $\text{cis}$- and $\text{trans}$-dimethoxyethylene (III and IV)] and disubstituted [(acac)Rh(olefin)₂, olefin = $\text{cis}$- and $\text{trans}$-dimethoxyethylene (V and VI), methyl vinyl ether (VII)] derivatives of I have been investigated with respect to hindered intramolecular movements of the ligands. The barriers of olefin rotation increase with an increasing number of methoxy substituents. When the olefin rotation is frozen out; the methoxy substituents of the olefins tend to be turned away from the acetylacetonate ligand unless steric interaction occurs between the two π-coordinated olefins. A hindered movement of the acetylacetonate ligand has been observed in II and V. For this movement which is independent of the olefin rotation, a degenerate rearrangement is proposed of the tetragonal-planar complexes via a tetrahedral transition state.     

Ligand exchange reactions of ferrocene with phenanthrene or 9,10-dimethylphenanthrene in the presence of aluminum chloride and aluminum

Ligand exchange reactions between phenanthrene or 9,10-dimethylphenanthrene with ferrocene effected in the presence of AlCl₃-Al were carried out under a variety of conditions. With phenanthrene (I), hydrogenation at the C-9 and C-10 positions could take place during the reaction and the cationic products obtained were the η⁶-phenanthrene-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron and η⁶-9,10-dihydro-phenanthrene-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron moncations (II and III), and the η⁶-phenanthrene-$\text{trans}$-$\text{bis}$-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron and η⁶-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene-$\text{trans}$-$\text{bis}$-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron dications (IV and V). With 9,10-dimethylphenanthrene (VI), reactions carried out in refluxing cyclohexane gave the non-hydrogenated η⁶-9,10-dimethylphenanthrene-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron monocation (VII) and η⁶-9,10-dimethylphenanthrene-$\text{trans}$-$\text{bis}$-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron dication (VIII). When higher temperatures were used in an attempt to promote hydrogenation, decomposition predominated and no cationic product could be obtained. These finding are discussed and contrasted with previous results obtained from similar reactions using anthracene or 9,10-dimethylanthracene.     

N-halogeno-compounds. Part 9 [1]. Azoxy- and azo-arenes derived from 4-(dichloroamino)tetrafluoropyridine; crystal structure of trans-2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl-onn-azoxy)pyridine

The nitrosoarenes ArNO (Ar = C₆H₅, 2-MeC₆H₄, 2,4,6- Me₃C₆H₂ and C₆F₅) have been condensed with 4-(dichloroamino)- tetrafluoropyridine to provide the azoxy-compounds py_FN$\text{N}\text{+}$($\text{N}\text{-}$)Ar (py_F = 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-pyridyl); de-oxygenation of the first three with triphenylphosphine or triethyl phosphite gave the corresponding azo-compounds, and the reverse reaction was achieved in the case of py_FNNC₆H₂Me₃-2,4,6 using peroxytrifluoroacetic acid. Thermolysis of 4-azidotetrafluoropyridine in the presence of pentafluoronitrosobenzene provided the perfluorinated azoxy-compound py_FN$\text{N}\text{+}$($\text{O}\text{-}$)C₆F₅. X-Ray methods have been used to determine the molecular geometry of py_FN$\text{N}\text{+}$($\text{O}\text{-}$)C₆H₂Me₃-2,4,6.     

Relative asymmetric induction in the hydroboration of bi-1-cyclohexen-1-yls

Hydroboration-oxidation of the bi-1-cyclohexen-1-yls 1 and 8b gave single 1,4-diols, $\text{d,1}$ 2 and $\text{meso}$ 10b, respectively, whereas the chiral bi-1-cyclohexen-1-yl 8a, synthesized from (?)-$\text{trans}$-3,5-dimethylcyclohexanone, led to a mixture of two 1,4-diols (9a and 10a).     

Radical additions of xenon difluoride to cis- and trans-1-phenylpropenes: comparison with trichloramine and iodobenzene dichloride

We would like to report data which support a free radical pathway for reaction of xenon difluoride (XeF₂) with alkenes in organic solvent. Radical intermediates have been proposed for reaction of XeF₂ to double bonds. For example, a radical pathway was suggested for the gas phase reaction of XeF₂ to ethylene and propene [1]. Zupan speculated on a radical cation pathway for the acid catalyzed reaction of XeF₂ with alkenes but gave no experimental evidence for this mechanism [2,3]. Radical cation intermediates were demonstrated for the reaction of XeF₂ to aromatics by Filler [4]. Acid catalyzed ionic reactions to unsaturated hydrocarbons have been reviewed [5].Zupan and Pollak have shown that alkenes do not react in aprotic solvent with XeF₂ at low concentrations of alkene unless acid catalyst is present [3]. However, we observed that illumination of a dilute solution of $\text{cis-}$ or $\text{trans}$-1-phenylpropenes (I) or (II) in methylene chloride at 0° with a 270 watt sunlamp produced IIIa and IIIb in less then two hours (Table). Furthermore, at high concentration of (I) and (II), a spontaneous reaction occurred in the dark between XeF₂ and these styrenes. The reaction conditions for both of these reactions imply a radical mechanism — the latter a molecule-induced pathway.     

Reactions of pyridinium t-butoxycarbonylmethylide with perfluoropropene and some fluoroaromatics

Perfluorotoluene, pentafluoropyridine, 3-chlorotetrafluoropyridine, and 3,5-dichlorotrifluoropyridine react with pyridinium t-butoxycarbonylmethylide (I) in acetonitrile at 0 – 20 °C to yield, $\text{via}$ nucleophilic displacement of a 4-F substituent in each case, the new pyridinium methylides (II)–(V), respectively. Treatment of perfluoropropene with (I) gives 1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-2-fluoro-3-(trifluoromethyl)- pyrrolo[1,2-$\text{a}$]pyridine (VI) and 1,3-bis(t-butoxycarbonyl)-2- (1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl)pyrrolo[1,2-$\text{a}$]pyridine (VII), formation of the latter (minor) product providing evidence that the former arises $\text{via}$ a stepwise dipolar cycloaddition.

     

Synthesis of 1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,9-diones by acid catalyzed cyclization of 2-Acylamino-3-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones

The conversion of 2-acylamino-3-amino-1,4-naphthoquinones (II) to the corresponding 2-substituted 1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,9-diones (I) under both alkaline and acid catalyzed conditions has been effected and the results compared. Treatment of 3-(4′-chlorobutanonyl-amino)-3-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone (He) with aqueous ethanolic sodium hydroxide solution gives 1,2-butanonaphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,9-dione (V); whereas, treatment of lie with refluxing formic acid gave 2-(4′-chlorobutyl)-1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,9-dione. Treatment of 2-substi-tuted 1H-naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,5-diones in DMF with alkyl halides in the presence of potassium carbonate affords the expected 1,2-disubstituted naphth[2,3-d]imidazole-4,9-diones (VI). The spectral properties of I, II, V and VI as well as those of some 2-acylamino-3-chloro-1,4-naphthoquinones IV are discussed.     

Synthesis of new heterocyclic ring systems. Reaction of indolines and hexahydrocarbazole with α,β-unsaturated acids

Reactions of indoline (I), 2-methylindoline (II) and hexahydrocarbazole (III) with α,β-unsaturated acids in the presence of polyphosphoric acid have been investigated. Reaction of 1 with acrylic acid afforded two compounds which were identified as 1,2,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-pyrrolo-[3,2,1-ij] quinolin-6-one (IV) and 2,3,5,6,9,10-hcxahydro-1H-cyclopenta[f lpyrrolo [3,2,1-ij|-quinoline-1,8-dione (VII). The reaction oi 1 with crotonic acid gave compounds V and VIII, analogous-to IV and VII. The reaction of II with acrylic acid yielded two compounds VI and IX, whereas with crotonic acid, only X was isolated. With 111, acrylic acid afforded 5,6,8,9,10. 11,8a,11a-octahydro-4H-pyrido[3,2,1-jk]carbazol-4-one (XI) and a compound with a heretofore unknown ring system, viz., 2,3,5,6,7,8,11,12,5a,8a-decahydro-1H-cyclopenta[h] pyrido [3,2,1-jk |earbazole-1,10-dione. The structures of these compounds were deduced on the basis of their spectral and analytical data.     

N-Acylated α-aminonitriles and their conversion into 5-aminooxazole, 5(4h)-oxazolone and 4(5h)-imidazolone derivatives

In contrast with the reaction of α-aminonitriles $\text{1}$a, the corresponding $\text{N}$-acylated α-aminonitriles $\text{1}$b-f and oxalyl chloride do not yield pyrazinone derivatives, but 5-aminooxazoles $\text{9}$-$\text{11}$ or 4(5$\text{H}$)-imidazolones $\text{12}$, the latter being converted in some cases into imidazo [2,1-$\text{a}$]isoquinoline-2,5,6(3$\text{H}$)-triones. Reactions of compounds $\text{1}$b-f and ethyl chlorooxoacetate provide evidence for a 5(4$\text{H}$)-iminooxazole intermediate $\text{7}$, which aromatizes to yield 5-aminooxazoles $\text{9}$-$\text{11}$; however, unaromatizable īntermediates of type $\text{7}$ - isolable as 5(4$\text{H}$)y-oxazolones $\text{13}$ after hydrolysis - undergo a catalyzed Dimroth-type rearrangement to give imidazolone derivatives $\text{12}$.     

Photochemistry of N-aryl-2(1H)-pyrimidin-2-ones

Irradiation of N-aryl-2(1H)-pyrimidin-2-ones ($\text{3a}$-$\text{c}$) in a mixed benzene-alcohol solution afforded the products initiated by Type I cleavage, 1-(3-alkoxycarbonylamino-2-propene)-N-arylimines ($\text{4a}$-$\text{c}$, $\text{5}$, and $\text{6}$) in 45–51% yields.     

Chemie polyfunktioneller liganden: LXXIII. Synthese,struktur und reaktionsverhalten von cryptanden (bzw. spheranden) mit den heteroelementen arsen,sauerstoff, schwefel und stickstoff

The reaction of N(CH₂CH₂Cl)₃ (I) with KAs(C₆H₅)₂·dioxane ($\text{1}\text{2}$) in THF yields, as Sacconi et al. reported earlier, 80% of N[CH₂CH₂As(C₆H₅)₂]₃ (II). II is now obtained in a still higher quantity from the reaction of [HN(CH₂CH₂Cl)₃]Cl (III) with NaAs(C₆H₅)₂ in liquid ammonia. Treatment of II with gaseous HI in dry CH₂Cl₂ results in the formation of [HN(CH₂CH₂AsI₂)₃]I (IV), which is isolated by recrystallisation from THF as [HN(CH₂CH₂AsI₂)₃]I · THF ($\text{1}\text{1}$) (IVa). IVa reacts with H₂O/NH₃ or H₂S/N(C₂H₅)₃ to give the novel cryptands [N(CH₂CH₂)₃]₈-(As₄O₄)₆ (V) or [N(CH₂CH₂)₃]₈(As₄S₄)₆ (VI), which also can be denoted as spherands. The reaction of V with dry gaseous HCl in benzene leads to [HN(CH₂-CH₂AsCl₂)₃]Cl (VII). All the new compounds are characterized, as far as possible, by their IR, FIR, Raman, ¹H NMR and mass spectra. To determine the structure of V a single X-ray crystal study was carried out. Moreover II, which is already well-known but not completely characterized, is included in this discussion only for spectroscopic comparison.     

The reactions of trifluoromethyl and trichloromethyl radicals with conjugated and methylene-interrupted dienes and enynes

The photochemical addition of CF₃I to buta-1,3-diene and vinylacetylene in the gas phase gave 1,4-adducts as the main products. In gas phase reactions only products derived from hydrogen abstraction were detected in the CF₃I/penta-1,3-diene system, but the 1,4-adducts again predominated in the liquid phase. CCl₃Br similarly gave a mixture of 1,2- and 1,4-adducts, the latter predominating, on photochemical reaction with penta-1,3-diene. The 1,2-adduct was the main product from the CCl₃Br/pent-1-en-4-yn reaction, but some hydrogen abstraction was observed. The preference shown by conjugated dienes to give 1,4-adducts in the $\text{trans}$- configuration is interpreted in terms of steric factors and the propensity of dienes to adopt the $\text{s}$-$\text{trans}$ conformation.     

Carbocyclization reactions of 1-nitrocycloalkenes and cross-conjugated dienamines

Dodecahydro-8a-nitro-$\text{as}$-indacen-4 ( 2H )-one, dodecahy-dro-9a-nitro-4H-benz ¦e¦inden-4-one, dodecahydro-9b-nitro-5H-benz¦e¦inden-5-one and dodecahydro-4a-nitro-9 ( 1H )-phenanthrenone of $\text{cis}$-$\text{anti}$-$\text{cis}$ backbone are synthesized in quantitative yield by cycloaddition reaction of 1-nitro-cyclopent-1-ene and 1-nitro-cyclohex-1-ene with 1-( cyclopenten-1-yl )- and 1-( cyclohexen-1-yl )-1-( piperidin-1-yl )-ethenes respectively. The enamine intermediates are also isolated and characterized.     

Solvolytic behavior of p-dimethylamino-α-bromostyrene in water solutions

Nmr and UV studies show that $\text{p}$-dimethylamino-$\text{α}$-bromostyrene, I, undergoes S_Nl reaction in H₂O and HClO₄ (^kS_Nl = 6 × 10^?1sec.^?1 at 25°). The vinyl cation has an extraordinary selectivity for capture by aromatic amines relative to H₂O, including I itself to give the dimer II.     

Studies on organophosphorus compounds—XXXVI: Simple new routes to phosphorins from 2-hydroxy-, 2-mercapto-, and 2-aminobenzoic acids and their derivatives

2-Hydroxybenzoic acid heated with 2,4 - bis(4 - methoxyphenyl) - 1,3,2,4 - dithiadiphosphetane - 2,4 -disulfide, 1, gave 2 - (p - methoxyphenyl) - 4$\text{H}$ - 1,3,2 - benzoxathiaphosphorin - 4 - one 2 - sulfide, 3, and its thio-analogue, 4, while its ethyl or phenyl esters gave 4 as the sole product. 2 - Mercaptobenzoic acid and its ethyl ester when heated with 1 produced 3$\text{H}$ - 1,2 - benzodithiole - 3 - one, 8, 3$\text{H}$ -1,2 - benzodithiole - 3 - thione, 9, and 2- (p - methoxyphenyl) - 4$\text{H}$ - 1,3,2 - benzodithia - phosphorin - 4 - one 2 - sulfide, 10. The reaction of 2 -aminobenzoic acid with 1 gave 1,2 - dihydro - 2 - (p - methoxyphenyl) - 4$\text{H}$ - 3,1,2 - benzoxaphosphorin - 4 - one 2 - sulfide, 12. Reactions of 1 with methyl 2 - aminobenzoate and 2 - aminobenzamides are described. Mechanistic considerations for the formation of the heterocyclic phosphorus compounds are presented.
