Katalytische Effekte bei der Reaktion von 2,4-Dinitrofluorbenzol mit Morpholin in Benzol. 7. Mitteilung über nucleophile aromatische Substitutionsreaktionen

• (1) The rates of reaction of 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene with morpholine have been measured in benzene solution, with and without the addition of pyridine or 1, 4-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) as catalysts.
• (2) The reaction is catalyzed by morpholine, pyridine and DABCO; the rate laws as functions of these bases are expressed by equations (2)–(4).
• (3) The reaction is considerably more sensitive to pyridine and DABCO catalysis than that of 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene with the sterically identical, but more basic piperidine. These findings confirm a previously found trend of greater sensitivity to base catalysis with decreasing base strength of the reacting amine.

     

Katalytische Effekte bei den Reaktionen von 2,4-Dinitrofluorbenzol und 2,4-Dinitrochlorbenzol mit p-Anisidin in Benzol. 5. Mitteilung über nucleophile aromatische Substitutionsreaktionen

(1) The rates of the reactions of 2.4-dinitrofluorobenzene and 2.4-dinitrochlorobenzene with p-anisidine have been measured in benzene solution, with and without the addition of pyridine and 1.4-diaza-[2.2.2]-bicyclooctane (DABCO) as catalysts.     

Pd(OAc)2/DABCO-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction in DMF

The scope and limitations of the Pd(OAc)₂/DABCO (1,4-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane)-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions have been demonstrated. The results showed that the effect of solvent had a fundamental influence on the reaction. In the presence of Pd(OAc)₂ and DABCO, both aryl bromides and aryl chlorides all worked well with arylboronic acids to form biaryls, heteroaryl-aryls, and biheteroaryls in moderate to excellent yields using DMF as the solvent. Additionally, the reactions of aryl bromides were conducted under relatively mild conditions.     

Unexpected Knoevenagel self-condensation reaction of tetronic acid: synthesis of a new class of organic heterocyclic salts

A new class of pyridinium, quinolinium, isoquinolinum, and N-methylimidazolium-3-(2,5-dihydro-5-oxofuran-3-yl)-4-hydroxyfuran-2(5H)-one salts have been prepared in high yields by reacting pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, N-methylimidazole, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, and their derivatives with tetronic acid in CH₂Cl₂.     

Synthesis of N-alkyl-N′-aryl-piperazines via copper-catalyzed C–N bond formation

An efficient copper-catalyzed tandem synthesis of N-alkyl-N′-aryl-piperazines from 1,4-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane, alkyl halides, and aryl halides in the presence of copper(I) iodide and potassium tert-butoxide in DMSO is described.     

Model reactions of functionalization of polycarbonate. Reactions of phenyl chloroformate with nucleophiles and cationic polymerization behavior of bicyclo orthoesters containing carbonate group

Some model experiments for functionalization of a polycarbonate were carried out. At first, reactivity of phenyl chloroformate with a few nucleophiles was examined. Reaction with alkyl amines gave corresponding carbamates, but in the case of aniline, formation of a byproduct diarylurea was observed. Reactions with alcohols and phenols afforded carbonates in moderate yields, in which p-nitrophenol and isopropyl alcohol were less reactive. On the basis of these results, 1-ethyl-4-phenoxycarboxymethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (2) and 1-ethyl-4-ethoxycarboxymethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (3) were prepared by the reaction of phenyl and ethyl chloroformates with 1-ethyl-4-hydroxymethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane in the presence of tert-amine. 2 polymerized cationically with BF₃OEt₂ at more than 80°C to give a polyether containing both ester and carbonate groups in the side chain, with contamination of a gelled polymer.     

Efficient synthesis of 1-carbamatoalkyl-2-naphthols using Brønsted acidic ionic liquid as reusable catalyst

Efficient synthesis of 1-carbamatoalkyl-2-naphthols can be carried out in the presence of halogen-free Brønsted acidic ionic liquid, synthesized from 1,4-diaza-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) and 1,4-butanesulfonate. A wide range of aldehydes and carbamates easily undergo condensation with 2-naphthol to afford the desired products in good to excellent yields. The present methodology offers several advantages, such as a simple work-up procedure and short reaction times. The catalyst can be recycled and reused without substantial reduction in catalytic activities.     

Rubbery wound closure adhesives. II. initiators for and initiation of 2‐octyl cyanoacrylate polymerization

The polymerization of 2‐octyl cyanoacrylate (OctCA) initiated by five N‐bases [N,N‐dimethyl‐p‐toluidine (DMT), pyridine (Pyr), triethyl amine (Et₃N), azobicyclo[2.2.2]octane (ABCO), and diazobicylo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO)] was investigated. Our main objective was to assess the suitability and relative reactivity of these initiators for neat OctCA polymerization as wound closure adhesives. Methodologies were developed to determine stir‐stop and set times of OctCA polymerization and to use these quantities to assess initiation reactivity. According to these studies Et₃N, ABCO, DABCO, and Pyr are most reactive initiators, while DMT is much less reactive. Polymerizations were much faster in the presence of small amounts of tetrahydrofuran than toluene, indicating solvent polarity effects. Initiator reactivity is discussed in terms of structural parameters. NMR and MALDI‐TOF analyses of low molecular weight P(OctCA) prepared with DMT did not show evidence for the expected aromatic head group proposed by earlier investigators, which suggests complex initiation mechanism. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Crystallographic identification of a series of manganese porphyrin complexes with nitrogenous bases

Studying the axial ligation behavior of metalloporphyrins with nitrogenous bases helps to better understand not only the biological function of heme‐based protein systems, but also the catalytic properties of porphyrin‐based reaction sites in other biomimetic synthetic support environments. Unlike iron porphyrin complexes, little is known about the axial ligation behavior of Mn porphyrins, particularly in the solid state with Mn in the +3 oxidation state. Here, we present the syntheses and crystal and molecular structures of three new high‐spin manganese(III) porphyrin complexes with the different amine‐based axial ligands imidazole (im), piperidine (pip), and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO), namely bis(imidazole)(5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphyrinato)manganese(III) chloride chloroform disolvate, [Mn(C₄₄H₂₈N₄)(C₃H₄N₂)₂]Cl·2CHCl₃ or [Mn(TPP)(im)₂]Cl·2CHCl₃ (TPP = 5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphyrin), (I), bis(piperidine)(5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphyrinato)manganese(III) chloride, [Mn(C₄₄H₂₈N₄)(C₅H₁₁N)₂]Cl or [Mn(TPP)(pip)₂]Cl, (II), and chlorido(1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)(5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphyrin)manganese(III)–1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane–toluene–water (4/4/4/1), [Mn(C₄₄H₂₈N₄)Cl(C₆H₁₂N₂)]·C₆H₁₂N₂·C₇H₈·0.25H₂O or [Mn(TPP)Cl(DABCO)]·(DABCO)·(toluene)·0.25H₂O, (IV). A fourth complex, chlorido(pyridine)(5,10,15,20‐tetraphenylporphryinato)manganese(III) pyridine disolvate, [Mn(C₄₄H₂₈N₄)Cl(C₅H₅N)]·2C₅H₅N or [Mn(TPP)Cl(py)]·2(py), (III), acquired using different crystallization methods from published data, is also reported and compared to the previous structures.     

Conformation et reactivite de derives (4.n.0) bicycliques a jonction trans—XXIV: Trifluoroéthanolyse du phényl-4a et du méthyl-4a tosyloxy-3a bicyclo (4.2.0) octane trans. mise en évidence d'une réaction d'élimination à partir d'union phénonium

Rate constants and reaction products for trifluoroethanolysis of transfused 4a-phenyl 3a-tosyloxy bicyclo (4.2.0) octane 1 and 4a-methyl 3a-tosyloxy bicyclo(4.2.0) octane 1' are reported. As for methanolysis, this reaction occurs through the E₁(ip) process. Nevertheless, first-formed secondary cations are rearranged before reacting, by hydride migration for 1 and 1', and phenyl migration for 1. Reaction products result from solvent or leaving group basic and nucleophilic attack on tertiary ions, and phenonium ion for 1. Elimination via phenonium ion has been established by the characterisation of a rearranged olefin (with equatorial phenyl). A mechanism for this elimination reaction is proposed.

The bicyclo[3.2.1]octane 4b rearranges under acidic conditions to the bicyclo[2.2.2]octane 5 . The olefin 7 can be converted to the aminoalcohol 9 via the epoxide 8 and to the amine 13 using iodine isocyanate: the carbon skeleto. remains intact. However, treatment of the olefin 17 with iodine isocyanate leads to the bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes 21 and 24 in which a skeletal rearrangement has taken place. The configuration was determined by NMR. and X-ray analysis.

The ionic catalyst could be recycled for seven runs without diminution in its catalytic activity.

Dimethyl carbonate synthesis catalyzed by DABCO-derived basic ionic liquids via transesterification of ethylene carbonate with methanol

Easily prepared DABCO-derived (1,4-diazobicyclo[2.2.2]octane) basic ionic liquids were developed for an efficient synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) via the transesterification of ethylene carbonate (EC) with methanol. 1-Butyl-4-azo-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane hydroxide ([C₄DABCO]OH) exhibited high catalytic activity and 81% DMC yield together with 90% EC conversion was obtained under mild reaction conditions. Notably, the catalyst could be recycled for four times without loss of catalytic activity. Moreover, a possible mechanism was also discussed.     

Synthesis of monomers that expand on polymerization. Synthesis and polymerization of 2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with phenyl groups

2,6,7-Trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with phenyl group were prepared to obtain monomers which expand on polymerization. 1-Phenyl-4-ethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (I) could expand 0.2% during polymerization at a temperature slightly higher than the melting point. 1,4-Diphenyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (II) also expanded as much as 1.4% on polymerization. Further, the hydrolysis of 2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes with p-substituted phenyl groups were investigated to estimate the stability in water.     

Equilibrium polymerization behavior in the cationic single ring‐opening polymerization of bicyclo orthoesters

The synthesis and cationic polymerization of the following bicyclo orthoesters were examined: 4‐ethyl‐2,6,7‐trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, 1,4‐diethyl‐2,6,7‐trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, 4‐ethyl‐1‐phenyl‐2,6,7‐trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, 4‐ethyl‐1‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)‐2,6,7‐trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, and 4‐ethyl‐1‐(4‐nitrophenyl)‐2,6,7‐ trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane. All the monomers underwent equilibrium polymerization, which was confirmed by the relationships between the polymerization temperature and monomer conversion. The obtained polymers afforded the original monomers via an acid‐catalyst treatment with a low reagent concentration in CH₂Cl₂ at 20 °C. The equilibrium monomer concentration was constant, regardless of the initial reagent concentration, in both polymerization and depolymerization. The bicyclo orthoesters with a bulky and electron‐withdrawing substituent showed a larger equilibrium monomer concentration. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Solution NMR and X‐Ray Structural Studies on Phthalocyaninatoiron Complexes

The addition of primary amines as solubilizing reagents for phthalocyaninatoiron complexes is shown to afford six‐coordinate bis(amine)phthalocyaninato complexes, i.e., [Fe(amine)₂(pc)] 2 (amine = decan‐1‐amine) and 3 (amine = benzylamine), with the two new N‐donors occupying the trans‐axial positions. The new complexes were characterized by extensive NMR measurements in THF solution. For complex 3 with the benzylamine ligand, the solid‐state structure was determined by X‐ray diffraction methods. Complex 2 is sufficiently labile in THF solution to exchange one amine ligand against CO (gas) affording an equilibrium mixture containing [Fe(amine)(CO)(pc)] 4 .     

Halogen bonding in a series of Br(CF2)nBr–DABCO adducts (n = 4, 6, 8)

Halogen bonding (XB) is a highly‐directional class of intermolecular interactions that has been used as a powerful tool to drive the design of crystals in the solid phase. To date, the majority of XB donors have been iodine‐containing compounds, with many fewer involving brominated analogues. We report the formation of adducts in the vapour phase from a series of dibromoperfluoroalkyl compounds, BrCF₂(CF₂)_n CF₂Br (n = 2, 4, 6), and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO). Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction studies of the colourless crystals identified 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane–1,4‐dibromoperfluorobutane (1/1), C₄Br₂F₈·C₆H₁₂N₂, (I), 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane–1,6‐dibromoperfluorohexane (1/1), C₆Br₂F₁₂·C₆H₁₂N₂, (II), and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane–1,8‐dibromoperfluorooctane (1/1), C₈Br₂F₁₆·C₆H₁₂N₂, (III), each of which displays a one‐dimensional halogen‐bonded network. All three adducts exhibit N…Br distances less than the sum of the van der Waals radii, with butane analogue (I) showing the shortest N…Br halogen‐bond distances yet reported between a bromoperfluorocarbon and a nitrogen base [2.809 (3) and 2.818 (3) Å], which are 0.58 and 0.59 Å shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii.     

Halogen‐bonded adduct of 1,2‐dibromo‐1,1,2,2‐tetrafluoroethane and 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane

Halogen bonding is an intermolecular interaction capable of being used to direct extended structures. Typical halogen‐bonding systems involve a noncovalent interaction between a Lewis base, such as an amine, as an acceptor and a halogen atom of a halofluorocarbon as a donor. Vapour‐phase diffusion of 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) with 1,2‐dibromotetrafluoroethane results in crystals of the 1:1 adduct, C₂Br₂F₄·C₆H₁₂N₂, which crystallizes as an infinite one‐dimensional polymeric structure linked by intermolecular N...Br halogen bonds [2.829 (3) Å], which are 0.57 Å shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii.
