全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究 XVI.以二氟甲磺酸作为二氟卡宾前体合成全氟或多氟烷基磺酸二氟甲酯

二氟甲磺酸(1)在室温下即可和五氧化二磷作用,但和全氟烷烃磺酸不同,它并不生成相应的磺酸酐。脱水后进一步消除二氧化硫产生二氟卡宾,二氟卡宾再插入二氟甲磺酸得到二氟甲磺酸二氟甲酯(2)。若有其它全氟烷基磺酸或全氟烷基羧酸存在时,也可得到相应的全氟烷基磺酸二氟甲酯(4)或全氟烷基羧酸二氟甲酯(6)。用三氯氧磷或二氯亚砜代替五氧化二磷和1作用,也得到类似的结果。对二氟卡宾生成的可能机理进行了讨论。     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究XVIII.全氟烷磺酸二氟甲酯及其反应

和RFSO3CH2R(1)及RFSO3CF2RF'(2)不同,RFSO3CF2H(3)(RF=CF3,3a;ICF2CF2OCF2CF2,3b;Cl2CFCF2OCF2CF2,3c;ClCF2CF2OCF2CF2,3d)和亲核试剂的反应较为复杂。除X[-](X=F,Cl,I)及C2H5OH与3反应时只发生C-O键断裂外,其它试剂如RCO2[-],C6H5S[-]等既可进攻硫原子又可进攻碳原子,但以前者为主。碱性较强的试剂如RO[-]还可夺取二氟甲基的氢原子而产生二氟卡宾。在3中由于甲基碳上存在两个氟原子,确实有着一定的屏蔽作用,因此阻碍了某些试剂对它的亲核进攻,但由于这个碳上还连有一个氢原子,所以这种屏蔽作用并不完全。     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究XX.二氟甲磺酸二氟甲酯与亲核试剂的反应

二氟甲磺酸二氟甲酯HCF~2SO~3CF~2H(1)和三氟甲碘酸二氟甲酯CF~3SO~3CF~2H(2)相比,在亲核反应中显出较大的差异.由于α-氢的存在,在一定程度上影响了它和亲核试剂的反应,如KF和2作用时得到HCF~3.但与1反应却只进攻其硫原子,得到HCF~2SO~2F(3).而KI与1作用时既可进攻硫又可进攻其烷氧基碳.其它亲核试剂如RCO~2^-,ArS^-等却只进攻1的硫原子.碱性较强的苯酚钠和1作用时除分别进攻硫和碳外,还可攫取其氢原子而产生二氟卡宾.若反应温度较低时,则仅攫取其二氟甲基的氢;若于90℃反应,则还可同时攫取二氟甲氧基的氢,碱性更强的乙醇钠与1反应时则是以攫氢为主.     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究 XI: 全氟3-氧杂戊磺酸全氟苯酯的合成及其和亲核试剂的反应

Pentafluorophenyl and p-chlorotetrafluorophenyl-3- oxaperfluoroalkanesulfonates XCF2CF2OCF2CF2SO3C6F4Y (1) (Y=F, p-Cl) were synthesized by the reaction of 3-oxaperfluoroalkanesulfonyl fluoride with the corresponding sodium phenoxide in good yield. 1 reacted with various nucleophilic reagents more readily than phenyl perfluoroalkanesulfonates. The reactivity of nucleophiles toward 1 is parallel to the pKa values of their corresponding acids. All nucleophiles used (except C6H5S^-) attacked sulfur of 1 giving RfSO2Nu. Treatment of 1 with CH3CO^-2 produced perfluorophenyl acetate. When equivalent amount of KF was added to the reaction mixture the yield of the acetate decreased and main product was acetyl fluoride. This showed that the reaction followed the course of intermediary mixed anhydride formed through the attack of CH3CO^-2 on sulfur of 1. But when 1 was treated with ArS^- the only reaction occurred was C-O scission of the sulfenate by the nucleophilic attack of ArS^- on the fluorinated benzene ring to give the totrasubstituted perfluorobenzene, 1, 2, 4, 5-C6F2 (SAr)4. In contrast to the nucleophilic reaction of the mono-substituted pentafluorobenzene it was shown that in all reactions with nucleophiles para or ortho di-substituted compounds such as ReSO3C6F4Nu were not found.     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究 VIII: N-(3'-三氯硅基丙基)-3-氧杂全氟烷基磺酰胺及基衍生物的合成

3-OXaperfluoroalkanesulfonyl fluoride (1) reacted with allylamine to give the corresponding N-allylsulfonamide 2 which on treatment with sodium methoxide and methyl iodide affrded N-methyl-N-allyl-3 -oxaperfluoroalkanesulfonamide 3. 2 and 3 were converted to the corresponding substituted trichlorosilanes 4 and 5 respectively on treatment with trichlorosilane in the presence of chloroplatinic acid. Compounds 5 reacted with methanol and pyridine to give the corresponding trimethoxysilane 6. The elemental analysis, IR, ^1H NMR and 19F NMR data of these new compounds were recorded in Table 1-4. The compounds 4, 5 can be used for the treatment of glass surface to render it water-proof and solvent-proof.     

Perfluoro and polyfluoroalkanesulfonic acid: XVII. Difluoromethyl perfluoroalkanesulfonates and their reactions

In contrast to R_FSO₃CH₂R(1)(R=hydrogen, alkyl and perfluoroalkyl) and R_FSO₃CF₂R_F′ (2), the reactions of difluoromethyl perfluoroalkanesulfonates RFSO₃CF₂H (3) With nucleophiles are more complicated. Halide inos, X^? (X = F, Cl, I) and ethanol only attack the alkoxyl carbon atom, cleaving the C? O bond to give HCF₂X (4) and HCF₂OEt (5) respectively. Other reagents such as RCO₂^? (R=CH₃, CF₃), C₆H₅S^? etc. can either attack the carbon or sulfur atom of 3 to give the corresponding products of C? O and S? O bond cleavages. More basic nucleophiles RO^? (R = C₆H₅, Et) mainly abstract the proton of the HCF₂ moiety to produce difluorocarbene. Ether and benzene, which can be alkylated by methyl perfluoroalkanesulfonate, do not react with 3 under similar conditions. The reaction rate of 3 with KF is much slower than that of 1 (R = H). All these data seem to indicate that the shielding effect caused by the two fluorine atoms on the methyl carbon in 3 prevents to some extent the nucleophilic attack on this carbon, but not so completely as in 2 due to the presence of a hydrogen atom.     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究 IX. 5-卤-3-氧杂-全氟戊磺酰氟的化学转化

5-Halo-3-oxa-perfluoropentanesulfonic acids 2,4 were obtained in high yields by treating the corresponding sulfonyl fluorides successively with KOH and concentrated H2SO4: Treatment of the acids with P2O5 gave corresponding anhydrides 3, 5. 3 reacted with various alcohols in the presence of pyridine to yield sulfonates 6. 5-Iodo-3-oxa-perfluoropentanesulfonyl fluoride (1) was converted to the acyl fluoride 9 by fuming sulfuric acid. Depending on the reaction temperature 9 can be hydrolyzed to fluorosulfonyl perfluoroalkanoic acid 10 and/or mixed dibasic acid 11. A similar phenomenon was also observed in the case of hydrolysis of fluorocarbonyl-perfluoromethanesulfonyl fluoride(13). Alcohol reacted readily with the acyl fluoride group but not with the sulfonyl group in 9 giving carboxylic esters, which can be further transformed to the corresponding sulfonates. Perfluoroalkoxide ion -O(CF2)2O(CF2)2SO2F prepared from 9 and F- reacted with active alkyl halides yielding the corresponding ethers. The interaction of 5-halo-3-oxa-perfluoroalkane-sulfonyl fluoride with AlCl3 was investigated. Friedel-crafts acylation of aromatic compounds with 9 in the presence of anhydrous AlCl3 is also reported. The yields of the desired ketones can be improved by using CCl4 as a solvent and changing the order of addition of reactants.     

全氟和多氟烷基磺酸的研究 X:在亲核取代反应中全氟烷基3-氧杂全氟烷基磺酸酯的唯一的硫-氧键断裂

Perfluoroalkyl 3-oxaperfluoralkanesulfonates XCF2OCF2CF2SO3CF2OCF2X (1) (X=CF2I (1a), CF2Cl (1b), HCF2 (1c), Cl2CF (1d)) reacted readily with various mucleophiles leading to S--O seission exclusively, thus 1 -- XCF2OCF2CF2SO2Y+XCF2OCF2COZ In the presence of a catalytic amount of halide (F-, Cl-, Br-, I-) and thiecyanate in diglyme 1 decomposed to give the corresponding sulfonly fluoride 2 (X=F) and acyl fluoride 3(Z=F). At room temperature 1 did not react with excess ethanol, but under refluxing for 12.5h, 1 was converted to 2 (Y=F) and 3 (Z=OEt). More powerful nucleophile ethoxide ion reacted readily with 1 at-60 - -50`C yielding Et2O and 3 (Z=OEt) but no 2 (Z=F). When the reaction was carried out at 80`C the yields of the products varied with the order of mixing of the reactants i.e. when 1 was added to excess ethoxide in ethanol, products are 3(Z=OEt), Et2O and 2(Y=F), but with ethoxide adding to 1 the yield of 2 (Y=F) was increased and that of ether decreased whereas the yield of 3 (Z=OEt) remained constant. Carboxylates (CF3CO2-, CH3CO2-) also caused S--O cleavage of 1 to give acetyl fluoride, 2 (y=F) and 3 (Z=F) as a result of decomposition of the intermediary mixed anhydride by the fluoride ion. In the same manner R2NH, C6H5NH2 reacted with 1 giving the products of S--O cleavage. In contrast to the nucleophilic reactions of α, α-di-H-perfluoroalkyl perfluoroalkanesulfonates (mainly C--O cleavage) it has been found that all nucleophies attack the sulfur atom of 1 exclusively. A possible interpretation is that the SN2 attack at sp3 carbon atom in highly fluorinated system is made impossible by the shielding effect of the two fluorine atoms in the alcoholic moiety and leaving the attack on the sulfur as the only alternative.     

Design and synthesis of the novel branched fluorinated surfactant intermediates with CF3CF2CF2C(CF3)2 group

Here we reported a novel and efficient method for the synthesis of the critical intermediates of branched fluorinated surfactants with CF₃CF₂CF₂C (CF₃)₂- group using HFPD as starting material. The reaction conditions were mild and easy to handle, which was promisingly applied to the industrial production.     

The thermodynamic effect of fluorine as a substituent: Vinylic CF2 and CFH and allylic CF2C

I₂-catalyzed isomerizations of 3-fluoropropene and 3,3 - difluoropropene, and a Cope rearrangement of 1,1 - difluoro - 1,5 - hexadiene provide thermodynamic data which allow the determination of a number of important group values for contributions to ΔH^o_f which when combined with those determined in the preceding paper allow the calculations of ΔH^o_f's of most simple F-substituted hydrocarbons: [C_d(F)(H)] = ? 38.4, [C_d(F)₂] = ? 88.0, [C(F)₂(C)(C_d)] = ? 103.9, [C(F)₂(C)₂] = ? 104.9 kcal/mole. A kinetic study of the conversion of 1,1 - difluoro- to 3,3 - difluoro - 1,5 - hexadiene provided activation parameters for the process: Log A = 10.8, E_a = 33.0 kcal/mole and ΔS^≠ = ? 12.2 e.u. Incremental geminal stabilizations of F and other substituents are discussed and contrasted.     

The thermodynamic effect of fluorine as a substituent: Allylic CF3 and CF2H

Cope rearrangements of 7,7,7-trifluoro-1,5-heptadiene and 7,7-difluoro-1,5-heptadiene were examined to gain quantitative understanding of the thermodynamic effect of allylic fluorine substitution. Group value contributions to ΔH_f's were thus able to be determined for allylic fluorine-substituted carbon groups: C(F)₃(C_d) = ?166.0, C(F)₂(H)(C_d)= ?107.6 and C(F)(H)₂(C_d) = ?52.2 kcal/mole.     

2-lithio-2-phenylsulfonyl propane as efficient precursor of gem-dimethyl cyclopropane carboxylic acids

2-Lithio-2-phenylsulfonyl propane has been successfully used for the cyclopropanation of electrophilic olefins and plays the role of an alkylidene transer reagent.     

Design and synthesis of hydrophobic and chiral anions from amino acids as precursor for functional ionic liquids

Hydrophobic ionic liquids composed of tetrabutylphosphonium cation and chiral anions derived from amino acids modified with trifluoromethane sulfonyl groups have been synthesized using a simple method.     

Hydrothermal synthesis of single-crystalline anatase TiO2 nanorods with nanotubes as the precursor

Preparation of anatase TiO2 nanorods from solutions in the absence of surfactants or templates has rarely been reported. The present work has found that hydrothermal treatment of titanate nanotube suspensions under an acidic environment resulted in the formation of single-crystalline anatase nanorods with a specific crystal-elongation direction. The nanotube suspensions were prepared by treatment of TiO2 in NaOH, followed by mixing with HNO3 to different pH values. The crystal size of the anatase nanoparticles obtained from the hydrothermal treatment increased with the pH of the suspensions, and nanorods with an aspect ratio up to 6 and a long axis along the anatase [001] were obtained at a pH slightly less than 7. A mechanism for the tube-to-rod transformation has been proposed on the basis of the crystalline structures of the tubes and rods. The local shrinkage of the tube walls to form anatase crystallites and the subsequent oriented attachment of the crystallites have been suggested to be the key steps involved in the nanorod formation.     

Size- and shape-controlled synthesis of ZnSe nanocrystals using SeO2 as selenium precursor

Here we report a low-cost and "green" phosphine-free route for the size- and shape-controlled synthesis of high-quality zinc blende (cubic) ZnSe nanocrystals. To avoid the use of expensive and toxic solvents such as trioctylphosphine (TOP) or tributylphosphine (TBP), SeO(2) was dispersed in 1-octadecene (ODE) as a chalcogen precursor. It has been found that the temperature and the surface ligand influenced the nucleation, the reaction speed and the formation of different shapes. Absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used for the characterization of the as-synthesized ZnSe nanocrystals. The size-dependent photoluminescence (PL) range of the as-prepared ZnSe nanocrystals was between 390 and 450 nm, with the PL full width at half-maximum (FWHM) well controlled between 14 and 18 nm and PL quantum yields reached up to 40% at room temperature. Moreover, this new selenium precursor can be used to form tetrapod-shaped ZnSe nanocrystals when zinc acetylacetonate was introduced as the zinc precursor with a one-pot method.     

Improvement of the synthesis of aryl difluoromethyl ethers and thioethers by using a solid-liquid phase-transfer technique

A new solid-liquid phase-transfer technique has been used to synthesize aryl difluoromethyl ethers and thioethers. Phenols (or thiophenols) and chlorodifluoromethane, dissolved in a cheap aprotic solvent of low polarity, are contacted with solid sodium hydroxide in the presence of a catalytic amount of tris-(3,6-dioxaheptyl)amine. The work-up of the reaction mixtures is very simple. Although yields are similar in both homogenous and heterogeneous procedures using phenols, improved yields are obtained for thiophenols when using phase-transfer conditions.     

Triphenyltin hydroxide as a precursor for the synthesis of nanosized tin‐doped TiO2 photocatalysts

¹H and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR results indicate that, when Ph₃SnOH is dissolved in CD₂Cl₂, it dehydrates to (Ph₃Sn)₂O, only a small amount of Ph₃SnOH remaining in equilibrium at room temperature. As a result, the reaction of TiCl₄ with Ph₃SnOH in CH₂Cl₂ proceeds via hydrolysis of the halide to precipitate amorphous TiO₂ that contains adsorbed organotin species. Calcination of the amorphous precursor to 723 K yields nanoparticles of tin‐doped TiO₂ photocatalysts, that contain anatase and rutile phases, and may also contain a segregated SnO₂ phase. The reaction conditions that lead to the formation of a SnO₂ phase have been studied and we have found that it is formed when the amorphous precipitate is not thoroughly washed with CH₂Cl₂ or when non‐recrystallized commercial Ph₃SnOH is used as a starting material. The catalysts obtained have a high activity for the photooxidation of toluene in the gas phase. In particular, a material obtained from non‐recrystallized Ph₃SnOH is particularly promising because the toluene photooxidation rate is more than twice as high as when using Degussa P25.

Breathing air as oxidant: Optimization of 2-chloro-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane synthesis as a precursor for phosphoryl choline derivatives and cyclic phosphate monomers

Phosphoryl choline derivatives are important compounds for drug development. Also other phosphoesters have received increased demand in recent years. Many of such compounds rely 2-chloro-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane (COP) as an intermediate. COP is available in a two-step reaction from the cyclic adduct of phosphorus chloride and ethylene glycol after oxidation. Although commercially available, in-house synthesis of COP is often required due to pricing, purity, and delivery issues. Air is a convenient and economical oxidizing agent, yet not used for synthesis of COP. While slow consumption of the P(III)-precursor 2-chloro-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane with molecular oxygen from a gas bottle, high amounts of unreacted oxygen are lavished and even may cause an explosion. Oxygen from air is a reasonable and safer alternative. Additionally, catalytic amounts of cobalt(II)chloride increase the reaction kinetics remarkably. The results presented allow a controlled and fast access to a variety of phosphoesters by optimized reaction conditions of COP and its derivatives.
