6(5H)-phenanthridinones. III. halo-6(5H)phenanthridinones

Halogenation of 6(5H)-phenanthridinone or its 3,8-dihalo derivatives with N-bromo or N-chlorosuccinimide in dimethylformamide gives the corresponding 2-halophenanthridinones (I,V,XI-XIV). Further halogenation of 2-halo-6(5H)-phenanthridinone with the appropriate N-halosuccinimide, in the same medium, gives the corresponding 2,4-dihalo derivatives (II,VI). NXS/DMF is found to be a very convenient halogenating system in these preparations. 1,3,8-Trihalo-6(5H)-phenanthridinones (XIX,XX) are prepared from the 1-nitro derivatives which are obtained by a Schmidt rearrangement of 2,7-dihalo-4-nitro-9-oxofluorenes. Similarly, rearrangement and further reaction of 2-nitro-5-chloro-9-oxofluorene (XXI) leads to 3,10-dichloro-6(5H)-phenanthridinone (XXIV). UV absorptions as well as selected IR absorptions of these 6(5H)-phenanthridinones are described.     

Rate constants for tsomerization of C6H5C(SC6H5)2 ĆH2 radicals to C6H5Ć(SC6H5)CH2SC6H5 radicals based on EPR data

Conclusions The parameters of the Arrhenius equation for the isomerization of PhC(SPh)₂H₂ radicals to Ph(SPh)CH₂. SPh radicals are in agreement with an intramolecular character of the rearrangement, with a 1,2-migration of the thiyl group. These parameters were calculated on the basis of the data that were obtained by the EPR method in the range 10–70°.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2596–2597, November, 1982.     

Coordination chemistry of silver(I) with the nitrogen-bridged ligands (C(6)H(5))(2)PN(H)P(C(6)H(5))(2) and (C(6)H(5))(2)PN(CH(3))P(C(6)H(5))(2): the effect of alkylating the nitrogen bridge on ligand bridging versus chelating behavior

The coordination chemistry of silver(I) with the nitrogen-bridged ligands (C(6)H(5))(2)PN(R)P(C(6)H(5))(2) [R = H (dppa); R = CH(3) (dppma)] has been investigated by (31)P NMR and electrospray mass spectrometry (ESMS). Species observed by (31)P NMR include Ag(2)(mu-dppa)(2+), Ag(2)(mu-dppa)(2)(2+), Ag(2)(mu-dppa)(3)(2+), Ag(2)(mu-dppma)(2+), Ag(2)(mu-dppma)(2)(2+), and Ag(eta(2)-dppma)(2)(+). Species observed by ESMS at low cone voltages were Ag(2)(dppa)(2)(2+), Ag(2)(dppa)(3)(2+), Ag(2)(dppma)(2)(2+), and Ag(dppma)(2)(+). (C(6)H(5))(2)PN(CH(3))P(C(6)H(5))(2) showed a strong tendency to chelate, while (C(6)H(5))(2)PN(H)P(C(6)H(5))(2) preferred to bridge. Differences in the bridging versus chelating behavior of the ligands are assigned to the Thorpe-Ingold effect, where the methyl group on nitrogen sterically interacts with the phenyl groups on phosphorus. The crystal structure of the three-coordinate dinuclear silver(I) complex (Ag(2)[(C(6)H(5))(2)PN(H)P(C(6)H(5))(2)](3))(BF(4))(2) has been determined. Bond distances include Ag-Ag = 2.812(1) A, Ag(1)-P(av) = 2.492(3) A, and Ag(2)-P(av) = 2.509(3) A. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group Cc at 294 K, with a = 18.102(4)(o), Z = 4, V = 7261(3) A(3), R = 0.0503, and R(W) = 0.0670.     

The preparation,characterization and reactivity of the cyclometallosilane,cyclo-1,1-di-h5-cyclopentadienyltitana-2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,-octaphenylpentasilane, (h5-C5H5)2TiSi(C6H5)2[Si(C6H5)2]2Si(C6H5)2

Titanium has been incorporated into a catenated silicon ring by means of the salt elimination reaction of dichlorodi-h⁵-cyclopentadienyltitanium(IV), (I), with 1,4-dilithiooctaphenyltetrasilane, Li₂Si₄(C₆H₅)₈, to yield the title compound (II). II was characterized as a cyclometallopolysilane by means of elemental analyses, base catalyzed hydrolyses, molecular weight determination, infrared and ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Electronic spectral data and electrochemical data are also discussed and support the formulation of II as a disubstituted (h⁵-C₅H₅)₂Ti^IV derivative. The reactivity of II, with CHCl₃, is described in terms of a radical decomposition pathway.     

Zur disproportionierung der phenylfluorphosphane (C6H5)2PF und (C6H5)PF2

Ph₂P-PF₂Ph₂ has been identified by means ¹⁹F- and ³¹P- NMR spectroscopy as an intermediate product of the disproportionation of Ph₂PF. The disproportionation is catalyzed by acids. The reaction mechanism is discussed. PhPF₂ disproportionates faster in solution in acetonitrile than neat, forming (PhP)₆, instead of (PhP)₅.     

Stereospecific and chemospecific interconversions of the rhenium alkylidene [(η-C5H5)Re(NO)(PPh3)(CHC6H5)]+PF6− and the alkylrhenium (η-C5H5)Re(NO)(PPh3)(CH(OCH3)C6H5)

Addition of methoxide to either geometric isomer of the benzylidene complex [(η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CHC₆H₅)]⁺PF₆^? (1t, 1k) affords (η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CH(OCH₃)C₆H₅ (2t, 2k) in which a new chiral center has been generated stereospecifically or with high stereoselectivity. Reaction of 2t and 2k with Ph₃C⁺PF₆^? results in the chemospecific abstraction of a methoxy group and the stereospecific regeneration of 1t and 1k, respectively.     

Beiträge zur Chemie des Phosphors. 67. Zur Kenntnis der Cyclotriphosphane (PC6H5)3, (PC6H5)2(PC2H5) und (PC6H5)2(PCH3)

Contributions to the Chemistry of Phosphorus. 67. About the Cyclotriphosphanes (PC₆H₅)₃, (PC₆H₅)₂(PC₂H₅), and (PC₆H₅)₂(PCH₃) The reaction of (CH₃)₃Si(C₆H₅)P? P(C₆H₅)Si(CH₃)₃ with RPCl₂ (R = C₆H₅, C₂H₅, CH₃) yields the cyclotriphosphanes (PC₆H₅)₃ 1 , (PC₆H₅)₂(PC₂H₅) 3 , and (PC₆H₅)₂(PCH₃) 4 , respectively. Besides, the corresponding homo- and mixed-substituted cyclotetraphosphanes, cyclopentaphosphanes, and cyclohexaphosphanes are formed. The relative concentrations of the cyclotriphosphanes in the reaction mixtures decrease continuously, whereas those of the cyclopentaphosphanes increase. The reasons for these ring-interconversion reactions of the cyclophosphanes (PR)_n are discussed. The cyclotriphosphanes 1, 3 , and 4 are characterized by ³¹P chemical shifts between +130 and +160 ppm that are at considerable high field compared to open-chain triphosphanes and cyclophosphanes of different ring-size. The substituents R are situated on both sides of the P₃-ring plane, thus giving rise to two diastereomers of 3 that are observed simultaneously in the statistically expected ratio. The ³¹P n.m.r. parameters of 1 and 3 are reported and discussed.     

Further insight into the relaxation dynamics of photoexcited I-(H2O)n clusters

First-principles molecular dynamics simulations of the excited-state dynamics of I-(H2O)3 have been performed to gain some insight into the general features of the relaxation process of photoexcited I-(H2O)n clusters. The relaxation of excited I-(H2O)3 is characterized by rapid motion of water molecules and slow recoil motion of the iodine atom. Both solvent reorganization and iodine atom motion appear to be important for interpreting the existing femtosecond photoelectron spectroscopy experimental results.     

Synthesis and structure of nitro-substituted 6(5H)-phenanthridinones

Methods for the preparation of nitro-substituted 6(5h)-phenanthridinones were examined. The nitration of 6(5H)-phenanthridinone, 5-methyl-6-(5H)- phenanthridinone, and 2-bromo-6(5H)-phenanthridinone was studied, and 2-, 3-, 4-nitro-, 2,4-, 2,8-, 4,8-dinitro-, 2,4,8-trinitro-, and 2,4,8,10-tetranitro-6(5H)-phenanthridinones, 2,4,8-trinitro- and 2,4,8,10-tetranitro-6-(5H)-phenanthridinones, and 2-bromo-4,8-dinitro- and 2-bromo-4,8,10-trinitro-6-(5H)-phenanthridinones were obtained. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to identify the structure and predict the orientation of substitution in the nitration of 6(5H)-phenanthridinone and its nitro-substituted derivatives. The distribution of the electron density in these compounds was evaluated from an analysis of the chemical shifts of the protons.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1106–1113, August, 1985.     

Synthesis and structure of bromonitro-6(5H)-phenanthridinones

Treatment of 2-bromo-6(5H)-phenanthridone with nitrating mixture or fuming nitric acid results in nitration, debromination, and bromination in the 10-position. The brominating agent is apparently Br⁺, formed in the reaction mixture following replacement of the bromine in the 2-position by a nitro-group. Monocrystals of 2-bromo-1,4,8-trinitro-6(5H)-phenanthridinone and 10-bromo-2,4,8-trinitro-6(5H)-phenanthridinone have been subjected to x-ray diffraction examination. PMR has been used for structural identification.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 789–795, June, 1990.We thank A. N.
