Generation of N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone radical adducts in iron breakdown of tert-butyl-hydroperoxide

ESR spectroscopy coupled to the spin trapping technique was used to evaluate the generation of radical species arising from the ferrous ion induced decomposition of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (’BuOOH) in methylene chloride. We report here that N-tert-butyl-α-phenylinitrone (PBN) can trap peroxyl radicals generated in the ferrous ion induced breakdown of high concentration of ’BuOOH (IM) at room temperature, the radical adduct being stable under the light. The peroxyl radical formation was demonstrated by direct ESR measurements at 77K. In contrast, alkoxyl and methyl radicals were trapped only in the presence of low hydroperoxide concentration (ImM). In order to measure the hyperfine splitting constants (hfsc) of the PBN-methyl adduct spectra were obtained in the presence of diphenylamine (DPA) or 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT), which quenched the alkoxyl radical. For this latter radical, the hfsc were calculated by computer simulation. A mechanism for a direct interaction between DPA and the alkoxyl radical is presented. DPA quenched the peroxyl radical in the reaction of high hydroperoxide concentrations, with the concomitant generation of a DPA nitrogen-based radical.

An application of spin trapping to radical polymerizations

Radical polymerizations and copolymerizations were carried out in the presence of phenyl tert-butyl nitrone(PBN) and tert-nitrosobutane (t-BuNO), and the structure of the spin adduct formed was investigated by ESR spectroscopy. PBN adducts gave the same ESR pattern, and the variation of the splitting constant was not large enough to warrant its use for the structure assignment. Therefore, the subsequent trapping experiments were performed with t-BuNO. The polymerization mixture of representative monomers showed esr patterns that are indicative of the propagating radical being trapped. These trapped radicals were not necessarily very stable and, in most cases, disappeared after long reaction periods. In the case of α-methyl substituted monomers, additional nine-line spectra were observed which were attributed to trapping of the radical species formed by hydrogen abstraction from the α-methyl group. The tert-butyl radical which was formed by decomposition of t-BuNo was probably responsible for the hydrogen abstraction. In the case of styrene, methyl acrylate, and methyl methacrylate, characteristic ESR patterns of the propagating radicals were observed with polymers which were prepared in the presence of t-BuNO and purified by reprecipitation. Simultaneous trapping of different propagating radicals was attempted in several copolymerization systems. However, this was generally unsuccessful, because of the large difference in reactivities of the propagating radical with t-BuNo.     

Electron Spin Resonance of Oxiranyl Radicals in Solution: Configurational Stabilities and Rearrangement Reactions

Several alkyl substituted oxiranyl radicals derived by hydrogen abstraction from oxiranes are observed in solution by ESR.-spectroscopy. The ESR.-spectra demonstrate that oxiranyl radicals have pyramidal configurations at the radical carbon atom and undergo inversion. Alkyl substituted oxiranyls rearrange by ring opening to α-keto alkyl radicals. The rates of inversion decrease and the rates of rearrangement increase with alkyl substitution. The activation parameters of these processes are given for several cases and are related to radical structure. Line broadening effects caused by inversion allow the determination of relative signs of γ-CH₃-coupling constants.     

Improved nematic mesophase stability of benzoxazole-liquid crystals via modification of inter-ring twist angle of biphenyl unit

A series of nematic heterocyclic liquid crystals, 2-(2?-fluoro-4?-alkoxy-1,1?-biphenyl-4-yl)-benzoxazole derivatives (coded as nPF(2)PBx) bearing hydrogen (nPF(2)PBH), methyl (nPF(2)PBM) and nitro (nPF(2)PBN) terminal groups, respectively, are developped and investigated. The results show that the nematic mesophase stability is obviously improved via a slightly increase in the inter-ring twist angle between the planes of two phenyl rings in the biphenyl unit, where modification of the twist angle can be achieved by adjusting the position of the lateral monofluorine substituent from the outer to the inter ring of the biphenyl mesogenic core unit. Meanwhile, the inter-ring lateral fluorine substituent results in a decrease in both melting and clearing points but only a nematic mesophase with an acceptably wide mesophase range for nPF(2)PBx, and thus a potential application in liquid crystal display mixtures is expected, especially for the compounds nPF(2)PBM and nPF(2)PBN. The reduced π–π interaction/conjugation caused by the increased twist angle is considered as one of the possible reasons for the formation of a nematic mesophase.     

A CW-EPR, ENDOR and special TRIPLE resonance study of a novel magnesium ketyl radical

In this paper, the paramagnetic properties of a novel magnesium ketyl radical (compound 1), formed by reduction of benzophenone with a dimeric Mg(I) complex in the presence of dimethylaminopyridine, are described. Using CW EPR, ENDOR and special TRIPLE resonance, the spin distribution in the radical has been explored at variable temperatures (200-298 K). At 298 K, most of the unpaired spin is found to be confined to the (OCPh(2)(?)) fragment based on the hyperfine couplings (hfc's) of o-H = 8.30, m-H = 3.00 and p-H = 9.95 MHz. Smaller hfc's to (25)Mg (5.54 MHz) and (14)N(DMAP) (0.90 MHz) were also evidenced in the 298 K EPR spectrum, indicating some spin delocalisation onto the Mg(Nacnac)(DMAP) fragment. At lower temperatures, restricted rotations of the diphenyl rings create an inequivalent spin distribution in the two rings, with o(1)-H = 8.80, o(2)-H = 7.85, m-H = 3.00 and p-H = 10.00 MHz.     

Chromatographic and mass spectral studies on methoxy methyl methamphetamines related to 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine

The methoxy methyl methamphetamines are a unique set of compounds having an isobaric relationship with the controlled drug substance 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (3,4-MDMA or Ecstasy). The various isomeric forms of the methoxy methyl methamphetamines have mass spectra essentially equivalent to 3,4-MDMA, all have molecular weight of 193 and major fragment ions in their electron ionization mass spectra at m/z 58 and 135/136. Mass spectral differentiation of 3,4-MDMA from some of the methoxy methyl methamphetamines was possible after formation of the perfluoroacyl derivatives, pentafluoropropionamides (PFPA) and heptafluorobutyramides (HFBA). Perfluoroacyl derivatization provided unique and characteristic mass spectral fragment ions when the methoxy group is substituted at the 2- or 4-position of the aromatic ring relative to the alkylamine side chain group. Perfluoroacyl derivatization did not offer any characteristic ions for discrimination of 3,4-MDMA from the 3-methoxy ring substituted methyl methamphetamines. Gas chromatographic separation on non-polar stationary phases successfully resolved subsets of the methoxy methyl methamphetamines, based on ring position of the methoxy group, from 2,3- and 3,4-MDMA as the PFPA and HFBA derivatives.
