Cyclopalladation of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylisophthalthioamide

Summary N,N,N,N-Tetramethylisophthalthioamide (Hmpt) was cyclopalladated with PdCl₂ in hot dimethylsulphoxide to give [PdCl(mpt)]. The structure was determined by X-ray analysis. The thioamide is metallated at C(2) to act as an S528-01C528-02S tridentate anionic ligand. There is appreciable steric repulsion between the benzene ring H(4, 6) and the dimethylamino groups. The hydrogens and the methyl groups mutually deviate from the coordination plane in opposite directions. The stability of the fused 5,5-membered chelate ring formed by the S528-03C528-04S ligand seems to overcome the steric hindrance. Derivatives were prepared by replacement of the chloride ion with iodide, diethyldithiocarbamate, 4-tert-butylpyridine, or tri-n-butylphosphine, and characterized spectroscopically. The S528-05C528-06S-fused chelate ring was maintained in these derivatives.     

The step dissociation constants of ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic-N,N′-dipropionic and ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetrapropionic acids

The step dissociation constants of ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic-N,N′-dipropionic and ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetrapropionic acids at 298.15 K and ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 (KNO₃) were determined potentiometrically. The results were extrapolated to zero ionic strength by the equation with one individual parameter. The thermodynamic constants of dissociation were calculated. The results are compared with the corresponding data on related compounds.

A fluorinated tetraphenylbenzidine derivative, N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (C36H26F2N2, Mr = 524.59) was synthesized via the palladiumcatalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig reaction of N,N′-diphenyl-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine with 2-fluoroiodobenzene (yield: 75%) and structurally characterized. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 9.820(7), b = 14.305(11), c = 10.233(8) , β = 108.973(9)o, V = 1359.3(18) 3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.282 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.084 mm-1, F(000) = 548, S = 1.018, the final R = 0.0439 and wR = 0.0928. It presents a linear centrosymmetric framework constituted by a linkage of biphenyl as a bridge and two fluorinated diphenylamine moieties.

Stereostructure and thermodynamic stability of atropisomers of ortho-substituted 2,2′-diaryl-1,1′-binaphthalenes

A series of ortho-substituted 2,2′-aryl-1,1′-binaphthalenes were prepared via Negishi arylation of 2,2′-diiodo-1,1′-binaphthalene in good to high yields (65–95%) as an equilibrium mixtures of up to three atropisomers (unlike,unlike, like,unlike, and like,like). Thermodynamic stability parameters of the atropisomers were evaluated from VT NMR spectra by regression analysis. The DFT parameters calculated using CAM-B3LYP functional comprising solvent permittivity were, apart from the toluene solution, which was expected to interact with the aromatic solute, in qualitative agreement with the experimental values. In the case of the ditolyl derivative, the population of the atropisomers was confirmed by CD spectroscopy via comparison with the population-weighted averaged spectrum computed using the M06 functional. X-ray structure analyses of particular atropisomers of the dianisyl, dianilinyl, and dinaphthyl derivatives are also presented and discussed.     

Synthesis of hydrogels from a polymeric N,N′-diallyl-N,N′-dimethylammonium salt

Feasibility in principle has been demonstrated for obtaining hydrogels with controlled parameters of the three-dimensional network by copolymerization of N,N-methylenebisacrylamine with macromolecules of poly-N,N-diallyl-N,N-dimethylammonium chloride containing terminal double bonds, i.e., with macromonomers of N,N-diallyl-N,N-dimethylammonium chloride.

GC-MS determination and optimization of extraction of N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-diphenylcarbamide from building materials

N,N’-dimethyl-N,N’-diphenylcarbamide (centralite) extracted from building materials was quantitated using ion trap GC-MS detection technique. Both linearity and standard deviation of the calibration curve were dependent on the conditions of the mass spectral detection. The most precise calibration has been achieved by quantification of a mass ion not participating in secondary reactions and which is produced via single fragmentation. The best recovery of centralite was obtained after either 30 min of normal extraction with toluene at 60 °C or 10 min of ultrasonic extraction with chloroform at room temperature. Using the latter method resorption processes might cause decrease in efficiency of the recovery at longer extraction time.

Preparation and Characterization of N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminium Chlorides,N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdimines,and Lithium N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminates

We describe convenient preparations of N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminium chlorides, N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdimines, and lithium N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminates in which the alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, or tert-butyl. For the dialdiminium salts, the N₂C₃ backbone is always in the trans-s-trans configuration. Three isomers are present in solution except for the tert-butyl compound, for which only two isomers are present; increasing the steric bulk of the N-alkyl substituents shifts the equilibrium away from the (Z,Z) isomer in favor of the (E,Z), and (E,E) isomers. For the neutral dialdimines, crystal structures show that the methyl and isopropyl compounds adopt the (E,Z) form, whereas the tert-butyl compound is in the (E,E) form. In aprotic solvents all four dialdimines (as well as the lithium dialdiminate salts) adopt cis-s-cis conformations in which there presumably is either an intramolecular hydrogen bond (or a lithium cation) between the two nitrogen atoms.     

A calorimetric study of N,N-diethyl-N′-furoylthiourea and N,N-diisobutyl-N′-furoylthiourea

The standard ( p^o =  0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of combustion in oxygen, at T =  298.15 K, were measured by rotative bomb calorimetry for crystalline N, N -diethyl- N^′-furoylthiourea, (2-C₄H₃O)CONHCSN(C₂H₅)₂, HFET, and N, N -diisobutyl- N^′-furoylthiourea, (2-C₄H₃O)CONHCSN(iso-C₄H₉)₂, HFIB. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation of both HFET and HFIB were measured by high-temperature Calvet microcalorimetry. These values were used to derive the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the compounds, in their crystalline and gaseous phases.     

Kinetics of CO2 absorption by aqueous mixtures of N,N′-diethylethanolamine and polyamines

Aqueous solutions of N,Nʹ-diethylethanolamine (DEEA) are prospective high-capacity CO₂-capturing solvents. Their reactivity can be enhanced by promotion with absorption activators. Two polyamines were chosen as activators in this work, viz. (methylamino)propylamine (MAPA) and diethylene triamine (DETA). In a stirred cell reactor, kinetics of CO₂ absorption into aqueous DEEA/MAPA and DEEA/DETA mixtures was studied at 303 K. The molarity of DEEA was varied in the 2–2.5 M range, whereas the polyamine concentration was changed between 0.1 and 0.5 M. Pseudo–first-order rate constants were reported. Second-order rate constants for the CO₂ reactions with MAPA and DETA were determined too. DETA reacts faster than MAPA.     

Synthesis, Structure, Photoluminescence and Theoretical Study of (N,N′-Dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium)[Cd2(μ 2-Cl)4Cl2]n with N,N′-Dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium Generated in Situ

The title complex, (N,N′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium)[Cd₂(μ ₂-Cl)₄Cl₂]_n (1), in which the N,N′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium was generated in situ, was synthesized via hydrothermal reaction.

The cadmium atom was bound by one terminal chlorine atom and four μ ₂-bridging chlorine atoms, yielding a slightly distorted triangular bipyramid. Photoluminescent investigation revealed that the complex displayed an emission in greenish blue region.

Curing of N,N′-diglycidylimides with polyfunctional compounds

This paper describes the curing reactions of new N,N′-diglycidylimides containing trimellitimide units. Reactions were carried out using several polyfunctional curing agents, viz. aromatic primary diamines and phthalic anhydride. Spectroscopic techniques were used to study the curing process. The course of reaction was followed by i.r. spectroscopy. Some intermediate species were detected by recording ¹³C-NMR spectra until the products became insoluble in the usual deuterated solvents.
