Competitive binding of fluorosulfate anion in reactions of halogens and nitronium borofluoride with olefins

Conclusions Reactions of olefins with chlorine in the presence of fluorosulfonic acid salts lead to-chloroalkyl fluorosulfates together with 1,2-dichlorides. The addition of nitronium borofluoride to ethylene in the presence of tetraethylammonium fluorosulfate gives 2-nitroethyl fluorosulfate. These reactions confirm the general character of the competitive binding of superweak nucleophiles in Ad_E reactions.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 389–391, February, 1985.     

Degradation and isomerization of 1,2-dichloroethenes by photocatalytic reactions

The photocatalytic degradation and isomerization of trans- and cis-1,2-dichloroethenes (1,2-DCEs) by TiO₂ photocatalyst have been investigated using gas chromatography. The reaction half-life of 1,2-DCEs in nitrogen was longer than in dry air and oxygen, and the initial concentration of them affects the extent of the isomerization. The results indicate that the oxygen molecule and chlorine atoms play an important role in the degradation and isomerization of 1,2-DCE. It is also apparent that the photocatalytic degradation of 1,2-DCEs occurs on the TiO₂ surface.     

Reactions of azoles with tetrachloro-1,2-difluoroethane and 1,2-dichlorodifluoroethylene

Tetrachloro-1,2-difluoroethane reacted with pyrazole and imidazole sodium salts to give mixtures of the corresponding N-(1,2,2-trichloro-1,2-difluoroethyl) derivatives and (E)-1,2-difluoro-1,2-dihetarylethenes. (E)-1,2-Difluoro-1,2-di(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1yl)ethene was also obtained as a result of replacement of chlorine atoms in 1,2-dichloro-1,2-difluoroethene. Analogous reaction with more nucleophilic imidazole involved replacement of not only chlorine but also fluorine atoms in 1,2-dichloro-1,2-difluoroethene, yielding tetraimidazolyl-substituted ethylene.     

Halogen fluorosulfate reactions with fluorocarbons

The scope of the reaction of simple fluorocarbon halides with chlorine fluorosulfate and mixtures of chlorine and bromine fluorosulfate to produce R_fOSO₂F compounds has been investigated. It is shown that in many cases even primary chlorine in -CF₂Cl groups can be replaced by -OSO₂F, Primary bromine or iodine in -CF₂X are more readily replaced. The mechanism of this replacement reaction has been established by the isolation of the metastable iodine III intermediate R_fI(OSO₂F)₂. Neither secondary chlorine nor bromine in -CFX- groups is affected. With the secondary iodide, i-C₃F₇I, the salt [(i-C₃F₇)₂I]⁺ [I(OSO₂F)₄]^? is formed. Furthermore, it has been found that ClOSO₂F is capable of converting fluorocarbon acids or their derivatives into fluorocarbon halides. A combination of these two ClOSO₂F reactions with the known conversion of R_fCF₂OSO₂F to the corresponding fluorocarbon acid offers a novel, high yield chain shortening reaction for the otherwise unreactive fluorocarbon halides according to:

Synthesis of 1,2 difluoro-1,2-bis(pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane

1,2-Difluoro-1,2-bis(pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane is a new class of organic polyvalent chlorine compound. The closeness of the retention time of this compound and that of chloropentafluoro- benzene made its purification difficult. All attempts to obtain this compound in high yield have failed. 1,2-Difluoro-1,2-bis- (pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane is prepared by fluorination of chloropentafluorobenzene at 128°C with elemental fluorine. It has been characterized by ¹⁹F n.m.r., i.r., mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis.     

The synthesis of 1,2-diacetyl- and 1,2-diethylferrocenes

A method is described for the preparation of 1,2-diacetylferrocene, in which ferrocene is acetylated with acetyl chloride in the presence of AlCl₃ in methylene chloride. Addition of the ferrocene to an excess of the acetylation mixture over a prolonged period was found to be most favourable. The 1,2-diacetylferrocene formed proved to be free of the 1,3-isomer. It was reduced with LiAlH₄/AlCl₃ to 1,2-diethylferrocene.

Nitro derivatives of cyclic sulfoximides of the 1,2-benzoisothiazole series

Nitro derivatives of 1-R-1,2-benzoisothiazol-3-one 1-oxide were synthesized by the reactions of 2-alkyl(phenyl)thio-4-nitro- and 4,6-dinitro-2-(phenylthio)benzamides with chlorine in 60% acetic acid. Analogous reactions of 2-(n-butylthio)-4-nitro- and 2-(tert-butylthio)-4-nitrobenzamides with chlorine afforded 2-butyl- and 2-H-1,2-benzoisothiazol-3-one 1-oxides, respectively. The proposed reaction mechanism includes the formation and subsequent transformations of S-alkyl-S-aryl- and S,S-diarylchlorosulfonium chlorides.

1,2-Dichalcogenins: Simple Syntheses of 1,2-Diselenins, 1,2-Dithiins,and 2-Selenathiin

Ring opening of titanacyclopentadienes 1 with (SCN)₂ or (SeCN)₂ followed by bis(thiocyanate) or bis(selenocyanate) cyclization affords 1,2-dithiin ( 2 a ) or 1,2-diselenin ( 2 b ), respectively.

The two ring systems are folded; 2a exists in the ?envelope”?- 3a in the ?boat”?-conformation.

PH moiety which differs in character from those in the four- and five-membered rings (BH)₂(PH)₂ and (BH)₂(PH)₃ M5 d , respectively. Explicit calculation of the influence of amino substituents on boron improved agreement of the bond length between computed and X-ray data.

Hydrolysis of 1,2-dimethyl-1,2-diphenyl-1,2-dichlorodisilane yields 1,2-dimethyl-1,2diphenyldisilane-1,2-diol, which undergoes dimerization into stereoisomeric 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-2,3,5,6-tetraphenyl-1,4-dioxa-2,3,5,6-tetrasilacyclohexanes under the action of H₂SO₄.

Calculation of chlorine Kα1,2 X-ray emission shifts in molecules

Shifts of the chlorine Kα_1,2 X-ray emission line in gaseous molecules and in crystalline NaCl are correlated with effective atomic charges from CNDO/2 molecular orbital calculations made (i) for the neutral atomic ground states. and (ii) within the equivalent core approximation. For the latter case CNDO/2 parameters are derived for argon. The best agreement with experimental chemical shifts is obtained with the equivalent cores approximation. The results for NaCl depend strongly upon the CNDO/2 treatment of sodium.     

Intercalation of 1,2-Alkanediols into α-Zirconium Hydrogenphosphate

Intercalation compounds of α-Zr(HPO₄)₂ · H₂O with 1,2-alkanediols (from C3 to C16) have been prepared by replacing 1-propanol in α-Zr(HPO₄)₂ · 2C₃H₇OH with the desired 1,2-alkanediols by a treatment in a microwave field. It was found that the intercalates contain 1.5 molecules of diol per formula unit. The diol molecules are placed between the host layers in a bimolecular way with their aliphatic chains tilted at an angle of 51°. The diol molecules are anchored in the interlayer space by H-bonds. A mixed intercalate, containing 1,2-butanediol and 1,2-decanediol in a roughly equimolar ratio, is formed when the α-Zr(HPO₄)₂ · 2C₃H₇OH intercalate, suspended in a mixture of 1,2-butanediol and 1,2-decanediol, is exposed to microwave radiation. No new phase containing both types of the guest molecules was observed when the 1-propanol intercalate, suspended in a mixture of 1-propanol and 1,2-octanediol, is exposed to microwave radiation.     

Some properties of polyfluoroacyl- and polyfluoroacetonyl fluorosulfates

Conclusions Polyfluoroacyl fluorosulfates are decomposed by the action of KF, SbF₅ and its mixtures with HSO₃F with the formation of the corresponding acyl fluorides. Pentafluoroacetonyl fluorosulfate reacts with SbF₅ to form hexafluoroacetone; the fluoride ion causes decomposition of 3-chlorotetrafluoroacetonyl fluorosulfate to chlorodifluoroacetyl fluoride.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1368–1372, June, 1987.     

Macrocycles with 1,2-dicyano-1,2-dithioethene units

Abstract

The new unsaturated macrocyclic tetrathioethers (Z,Z)-4 (n = 0), (Z,Z)-5 (n = 1), (Z,Z)-6 (n = 2) and (Z,Z)-7 (n = 3) were synthesized by the cyclization of (Z)-disodium-1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolate (Z)-3 with ω,ω'-dibromoalkanes BrCH₂CH₂(CH₂)nCH₂Br (n = 0;1;2;3) on refluxing in dioxane in yields up to 15%. By reaction of the dithiolate (Z)-3 with 1,3-dibromopropane the unsaturated hexathioether (Z,Z,Z)-6 was also obtained. By the cyclization of dithiolate (Z)-3 with 1,5-dibromopentane and 1,6-dibromohexane the (Z,E)- and (E,E)-isomers, respectively, were formed in addition to the (Z,Z)-isomers. The (E,E)- and (Z,E)-isomers are photochemically convertable to the corresponding themodynamically more stable (Z,Z)-isomers by irradiation with UV-light. The (E,E)-isomers can be synthesized in a straightforward manner using the (E)-disodium-1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolate (E)-3. Crystal structures of (Z,Z)-5, (Z,Z)-6, (E,E)-6, (Z,E)-7 and (E,E)-7 are reported.
