The Reaction Activity of Aromatic Carbonyl Compounds with Diphenylphosphine Oxide Studied by 31P NMR

Abstract

A series of α-hydroxyphosphine oxides were prepared by the reactions of diphenylphosphine oxide and aromatic carbonyl compounds and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR, FT-IR, ESI-MS, and HR-MS spectra. The reaction rates and experimental conditions of aromatic aldehydes and aromatic ketones were obviously different due to the activity of their carbonyls. The different substituents of the aromatic aldehydes affected the reaction rate too, and the quantitative reactivity of their substituent conformed to the Hammett equation. The results were confirmed by ³¹P NMR spectroscopy.     

Stereochemicai study of 7-aryl-1,7,8,8a-tetrahydro-3(2H)indolizinones by1H and13C NMR

Stereochemistry of 7-aryl-1,7,8,8a-tetrahydro-3(2H)-indolizinones was studied by¹H and¹³C NMR. Complete assignment of¹H NMR signals and analysis of¹H-¹H coupling constants were performed using the iterative PANIC program. Values of³ J _6,7,³ J _7,8endo, and⁴ J _5,7 allow one to unambiguously identify the correspondingexo- andendo-stereoisomers. For stereoisomers with exo-orientation of H(7), complete assignment of¹³C NMR signals was performed on the basis of analysis of the¹³C-¹H coupling constants using two dimensional heteronuclear shift-correlating spectroscopy.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Crosslinking and ageing of C labelled polyisoprene part 1: Synthesis and polymerisation of 4-C-isoprene

4-¹³C-isoprene was prepared by the Wittig reaction. All reaction steps were optimised using unlabelled compounds. By reaction with triphenyl phosphine, ¹³C labelled methyl iodide afforded labelled methyl-triphenyl phosphine iodide in 84% yield. This reacted with meth acrolein with production of 4-¹³C-isoprene in 64% yield. Labelled polyisoprene was prepared by anionic polymerisation initiated by t-butyl lithium. Based on ¹³CH₃I the overall yield is ca 30%. The polymer was characterized by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The contribution of each microstructure was [cis 1-4, 72%]; [trans 1-4, 10%]; [3-4, 18%].     

Diels-Alder reaction of 2-phosphaindolizines catalysed by organoaluminium reagent: theoretical and experimental results

Theoretical calculations at the DFT (B3LYP/6-31+G^**) level of the model Diels-Alder (DA) reactions of 1-methyl-3-(methoxycarbonyl)-2-phosphaindolizine with 1,3-butadiene in the presence of methylaluminium dichloride reveal that the co-ordination of organoaluminium reagent to the carbonyl oxygen increases the activation barrier compared to that for the uncomplexed 2-phosphaindolizine. On the other hand, co-ordination of the organoaluminium reagent to the σ², λ³ P atom lowers the activation barrier by ∼6 kcal mol⁻¹. 1-Methyl-2-phosphaindolizines having an electron-withdrawing group at the 3-position only undergo DA reaction with 2,3-dimethylbutadiene in the presence of the ethylaluminium dichloride catalyst in methylene chloride at a low temperature to afford [2+4] cycloadducts. The formation of an intermediate having the ethylaluminium reagent co-ordinated to σ², λ³ P atom has been detected by ³¹P NMR. The products have been characterized by ³¹P and ¹H NMR studies.     

Tin(IV) Tetrachloride Complexes with Bis-(Dialkylamino)phosphoryl Fluoride: A Multinuclear (119Sn, 31P, 19F,and 1H) NMR Characterization in Solution

The two octahedral complexes SnCl₄·2(O)PF(NR₂)₂ (R = Me or Et) were prepared from reaction of SnCl₄ with the ligand (R₂N)₂P(O)F in anhydrous CHCl₃. The new adducts have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and multinuclear (¹¹⁹Sn, ³¹P, ¹⁹F, and ¹H) NMR spectroscopy. The NMR data show that the adducts exist in solution as a mixture of cis and trans isomers with markedly different proportions. When compared with previously described hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and trimethylphosphate (TMPA) analogues, our results indicate that the cis isomer is the predominant species in solution. Low temperature ³¹P and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectra show that the compounds partially dissociate in dichloromethane.

Nuclear magnetic resonance of donor atoms as a tool for determination of the structure of platinum metal complexes in solutions

Data on the NMR spectroscopy of C, N, O, Si, P, and Sn donor atoms of platinum metal complexes in solutions are surveyed. The chemical shift of a donor atom mainly depends on the ligand in the trans-position (due to the trans-effect). The chemical shift of a donor atom on a particular coordinate of the complex (coordinate shift, CSh) is an attribute of this coordinate and can be used to identify such a coordinate in platinum metal complexes and to determine the structures of complexes. Based on the known data, CSh diagrams were composed for ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁴N, ¹⁷O, ¹⁹F, ³¹P, and ¹¹⁹Sn. Examples of using the CShs for determining the structures of platinum metal complexes in solutions are presented.     

The preparation and analysis of fluoro-polyphosphates by F, P, 2D F-P HETCOR and 2D P-P COSY NMR

A complex mixture of fluoro-polyphosphates (FPPs) and polyphosphates was prepared by heating a mixture of NaF and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) at 600 °C in nitrogen atmosphere. Two-dimensional ³¹P-¹⁹F heteronuclear correlation spectroscopy (HETCOR) NMR was developed in identifying the atomic connection between F and P in the mixed FPPs. ¹⁹F, ³¹P and ³¹P-³¹P correlation spectroscopy (COSY) NMR methods were employed to identify the components of the mixture and measure the chain length of each FPP ingredient. NMR results clearly demonstrated that the mixture contains four kinds of fluoro-phosphates with different chain length of polyphosphate, which are monofluoro-phosphate (MFP), monofluoro-dipolyphosphate (MFDPP), monofluoro-tripolyphosphate (MFTPP) and difluoro-tripolyphosphate (DFTPP). Other phosphates and polyphosphates also were found in the mixture.     

Reactive processing of polymers: Structural characterisation of products by H and C NMR spectroscopy for glycidyl methacrylate grafting onto EPR in the absence and presence of a reactive comonomer

Grafted GMA on EPR samples were prepared in a Thermo-Haake internal mixer by free radical melt grafting reactions in the absence (conventional system; EPR-g-GMA_CONV) and presence of the reactive comonomer divinyl benzene, DVB (EPR-g-GMA_DVB). The GMA-homopolymer (poly-GMA), a major side reaction product in the conventional system, was almost completely absent in the DVB-containing system, the latter also resulted in a much higher level of GMA grafting. A comprehensive microstructure analysis of the formed poly-GMA was performed based on one-dimensional ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and the complete spectral assignments were supported by two-dimensional NMR techniques based on long range two and three bond order carbon-proton couplings from HMBC (Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Coherence) and that of one bond carbon-proton couplings from HSQC (Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence), as well as the use of Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT) NMR spectroscopy. The unambiguous analysis of the stereochemical configuration of poly-GMA was further used to help understand the microstructures of the GMA-grafts obtained in the two different free radical melt grafting reactions, the conventional and comonomer-containing systems. In the grafted GMA, in the conventional system (EPR-g-GMA_CONV), the methylene protons of the GMA were found to be sensitive to tetrad configurational sequences and the results showed that 56% of the GMA sequence in the graft is in atactic configuration and 42% is in syndiotactic configuration whereas the poly-GMA was predominantly syndiotactic. The differences in the microstructures of the graft in the conventional EPR-g-GMA_CONV and the DVB-containing (EPR-g-GMA_DVB) systems is also reported     

Formation of ionic liquid submicron particles. 1H and 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies

We prepared novel ionic liquid submicron particles (ILSPs) in water by emulsifying the ionic liquid (IL) N-(2-methoxyethyl)-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Pyr_12O1TFSI), which is immiscible with water, with the nonionic surfactants Tween 20 and Span 80. The mean particle size and zeta potential of the ILSPs were about 580?nm and ?30?mV, respectively. The ILSPs were characterized using ¹H and ¹⁹F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic methods. The chemical shifts of the Pyr_12O1⁺ cation and TFSI^? anion in the ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR spectra of the ILSP suspension were consistent with those corresponding to pure Pyr_12O1TFSI. This indicated that most of the Pyr_12O1TFSI was still in the IL state in the ILSP suspension. In addition, ¹H–¹H nuclear Overhauser effect correlated spectroscopic measurements showed that the ILSP droplets contained Pyr_12O1TFSI in the neat IL steric state even in the ILSP suspension, and Pyr_12O1TFSI species localized in the droplet surfaces interacted with the hydrophobic acyl side chains of the surfactants. These NMR spectroscopic results show that the ILSPs formed an IL-in-water microemulsion in which droplets of neat Pyr_12O1TFSI were surrounded by the two surfactants, that is, Tween 20 and Span 80.     

Fractionation and physico-chemical analysis of degraded lignins from the black liquor of Eucalyptus pellita KP-AQ pulping

The degraded Eucalyptus pellita kraft lignin from the black liquor of KP-AQ pulping was precipitated directly at pH ∼2.0 without further purifying, since the lignin obtained is more representative with a whole distribution of molecular weight. The precipitated lignin was fractionated into six fractions by successive extraction with organic solvents. A comparison study of the lignin heterogeneity between the fractions was made in terms of fractional yield, content of associated polysaccharides, alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation, molecular weight distribution, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and thermal stability. It was found that the lignin fractions contained higher associated hemicelluloses and ratios of non-condensed syringyl/guaiacyl units which were extracted by organic solvents with higher Hildebrand solubility parameters. The results from GPC and TGA showed that the polydispersity and the thermal stability of the lignin fractions increased with increasing molecular weight. In the low molecular weight fraction, small amounts of β-aryl ether bond (β-O-4) surviving the KP-AQ pulping were detected by both ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra.
