Spectrométrie de Masse d'Hétérocycles Azotés. VII—Phenyl-1 Triazole-1,2,3

Comparison of the ‘normal’ and mass analysed ion kinetic energy spectra of 1-phenyl-1,2,3-triazole and a few D and ¹³C labelled derivatives indicates that the ions may follow two competing decomposition pathways: a simple rupture without rearrangement is preferred by the ions of high internal energy content (normal spectrum). On the other hand, for low internal energy metastable ions, loss of HCN is more important and occurs after a complete randomization of the H atoms.     

Etude de la fragmentation par impact électronique en ions positifs et négatifs de dérivés nitrés de l'amino-2-benzothiazole

Study of Positive and Negative Ions Electron Impact Fragmentation of 2-Amino-benzothiazole Nitro Derivatives The positive and negative ions mass spectra of 2-amino-4,6-dinitrobenzothiazole ( 1 ), 2-amino-4-nitrobenzothiazole ( 2 ), 2-amino-6-nitrobenzothiazole ( 3 ) are reported and discussed. These compounds give an intense molecular ion and show interesting fragmentations in both positive and negative ions spectra. Specific ¹⁵N-labelling was used in order to confirm the fragmentation patterns.     

RMN du 13C de Composés Méthylés Soufrés

A ¹³C NMR study of a series of methyl sulphur compounds is described. The results are discussed in terms of the deshielding effects on the methyl carbon exerted by –SH, –SMe, –SSMe, –SSEt, –SSMe, –SC(O)Me, –SC(S)Me, –SC(S)SMe. The ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of a series of S-methyl thioesters and dithioesters are compared with corresponding esters and connected with chemical properties.     

Coefficient seebeck et méanismes de conduction dans les polymères (PPP) electroactifs dopés par implantation ionique

A study of the Seebeck coefficient has shown that doping of polyparaphenylene by ion implantation makes it possible to obtain an electronically doped semiconductor at low energy: n-type with alkali metal ions and p-type with halide ions. At the highest energies (E > 100 keV) the p-type conductivity is due to the creation of defects by irradiation. Generally the semiconductor obtained is degenerate with a Seebeck coefficient close to that obtained by chemical doping. Study of the mechanisms of conduction suggests plots of log σ = (T^?l/n); the greater n is, the better is the agreement between the experimental curve and theory. Representation of the conductivity is proposed according to Mott's theories, which are applicable to amorphous semiconductors and involve several conduction processes in the temperature space. For the variable-range-hopping (VRH) mechanism at low temperature, two parameters, α^?1 (representing the spatial separation of hopping sites) and N(E_F) (the density of states at the Fermi Level) are obtained.     

Etude cinétique des effets de fluence énergétique,de débit de fluence,et d'effacement induits par des ions lourds et des photons γ dans le triacétate de cellulose

The kinetic interpretation of the damage produced by heavy ions (Kr and Cl from 1 MeV/amu) and γ radiation in cellulose triacetate leads to an exponential dependence on the ion fluence. A comparison of the fading effect produced by heavy ions and γ rays shows that the heavy ions, unlike γ rays, cause irreversible damage. Finally, a nonlinear dependence on the flux of ions and γ rays is found in the kinetics of radiation damage. This result is contrary to the usual assumption that heavy-ion flux, like γ-ray flux, is additive, at least for the fluxes of 10⁹?2 × 10¹⁰ ions/cm²s and dose rates of 10³–10⁴ Gy/h used in this work.     

Spectres de masse des composés organiques. 5e communication. Perte de méthane et d'éthylène à partir des ions butyle

The loss of methane and ethylene in the mass-spectrometric fragmentation of different isomeric butyl ions which originate from butyl halides has been studied. The different carbon atoms in n-butyl are already equivalent after 10^?7 s, whereas the statistical distribution of the hydrogen atoms within the molecule can only be observed for the metastable peaks. A protonated cyclobutane structure is proposed as an intermediate product in the fragmentation of the n-butyl ion. The fragmentation of this model has been simulated by a computer. This allows prediction as to the time-scale of fragmentation. The comparison of this model fragmentation with that of isomeric butyl ions shows that, even in the decay of the tertiary butyl ion, the formation of the proposed rearranged cyclic structure competes favorably with the direct fragmentation.     

The formation of [C9H10]+˙ ions by loss of a molecule of water from molecular ions of 3-phenylpropanol with lifetimes of 10−11 to 10−5 s

Field ionization kinetic experiments in conjunction with deuterium labelling have been shown that the molecular ions of 3-phenylpropanol with lifetimes as short as 10^?11s lose a molecule of water via a specific 1,3 elimination. At times > 10^?11s two distinct hydrogen interchange processes in the molecular ions appear to complete with this reaction. One of the intechange processes involves the benzylic and hydroxylic hydrogen atoms and starts to complete with the elimination of water at shorter molecular ion lifetimes than the other interchange process in which the ortho hydrogen atoms also participate. Decomposing [C₉H₁₀]^+˙ ions generated by elimination of water from the molecular ions of 3-phenylpropanol or by direct ionization of various isomeric C₉H₁₀ compounds could not be distinguished adequately, illustrating isomerization either to a common ion structure or to a set of ions with rapidly interconverting structures. A consideration of the energetics of the elimination of water from 3-phenylpropanol suggests that at threshold energies 1-phenylpropene or indane type structures can be formed. Arguments for the latter have been obtained from the observation that a labile fluorine atom is present in the [M – H₂O]^+˙ ions generated from 3-pentafluoro-phenylpropanol.     

Etude par RMN du Proton et du Carbone-13 de Pyrimidines Substituées. I—Effets de Substituant dans les Dérivés Méthylés et Aminés

Substituent effects of methyl and amino groups on the chemical shifts of pyrimidine have been investigated by ¹H and ¹³C n.m.r. and compared with similar data obtained for benzene and pyridine. Taking into account pairwise interactions, the chemical shifts calculated by using an additivity relationship are in very good agreement with the experimental results, except for some hindered pyrimidines. This study enabled us to assign the ¹³C n.m.r. spectra of some trisubstituted pyrimidines.     

Radicaux libres dérivés de sucres. V. Dérivés d'osamines N-hydroxylées et composés voisins Communication préliminaire

Free sugar radicals. V. Deoxyhydroxylaminosugar derivatives and related compounds We describe several synthetic routes to deoxyhydroxylaminosugar derivatives of the type Glyc-N(OH)-R where Glyc stands for a sugar moiety linked by any of its C-atoms except the anomeric one and R for one of the following substituants: H-atom, acyl, phosphoryl groups, aminoacid or sugar residues. Compounds of the above structure are potentially close analogs, homoisosteres, ? NOH? replacing ? O? , of biochemically important molecules. Under aerobic conditions, solutions of these derivatives contain minute concentrations of the corresponding nitroxide radicals which do not decrease significantly the resolution of the NMR. spectra but render these compounds usable as a new kind of spin labels. Spectroscopic properties (¹H-NMR., ¹³C-NMR., ESR.) of some of these compounds are reported.     

Dérivés de sucres à groupement gem-dihalogénoéthényle

Carbohydrate Derivatives Bearing a gem-Dihalogenoethenyl Group Treated with the appropriate Wittig reagent, aldehydosugar derivatives ( 1–13 ) led in good to excellent yields to the expected gem-difluoro, gem-chlorofluoro-and/or gem-dichloroenoses ( 14–29 ). Examples of their dibromo analogues had been previously described (see e.g. [1]) but the diiodo derivatives could not be isolated, The influence of the conditions on the yields is reported as well as spectroscopic properties (particularly the long-range ¹³C, ¹⁹F- and ¹H, ¹⁹F-coupling constants) of these new enoses.     

Dérivés d'énose- et d'ynosephosphonates et composés voisins. Communication préliminaire

Derivatives of enose- and ynosephosphonates and related compounds. Preliminary communication The gem-dibromo terminal enoses 1 and 7 are convenient sources of glycosylacetylenes which upon reaction with phosphorus electrophiles gave the phosphorusbearing acetylenic sugars 4, 5 and 8 . Compounds 5 and 8 underwent cycloaddition reactions leading to isoxazolyl-C-glycosides 6 and 9 respectively. The nitroolefinic sugar derivative 11 gave upon bromination-dehydrobromination the first example of a new kind of potentially useful synthetic intermediates, the gem-bromonitroenose 12 . The enosephosphonate 13 was also prepared from 11 . The diglycosylhydroxylamine 18 represents another type of phosphorus-bearing acetylenic sugar derivative. Some ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR. data relative to the new types of phosphorus-containing sugar derivatives synthesized are given.     

Etude Stéréochimique par RMN 1H de Tetrahydropyrannes β-Chlorés α-Substitués

The ¹H NMR study of 2-alkyl-3-chlorotetrahydropyrans, obtained by reaction of Grignard reagents with a mixture of cis/trans-2,3-dichlorotetrahydropyrans, shows cis/trans configuration of two isomers in which the alkyl substituents are exclusively in the equatorial position. 3-Chloro-2-phenyltetrahydropyran exists in trans (eq-eq) configuration only. The ¹H NMR study of cis/trans 2-alkoxy (or aryloxy)-3-chlorotetrahydropyrans, obtained by reaction of alcohols or phenol with 2,3-dichlorotetrahydropyrans, shows the axial position of the alkoxy (or aryloxy) substituent.     

Étude par rayons X de copolymères téléchéliques butadiène acide méthacrylique

The telechelic polybutadiene–methacrylic acid copolymer (Hycar CTB) containing 2 mole percent acid and neutralized (5–100%) by alkali ions, Na⁺, K⁺, and Cs⁺, has been studied by small-angle x-ray scattering. Salt groups form clusters, and the average value of the radii of gyration is approximately 8 Å; this value seems to be independent of the nature of the cation and the degree of neutralization. The existence of a low-angle maximum in the scattering intensity gives evidence of a mean distance of 80 Å between clusters in the fully neutralized sample. This distance increases slightly with a decreasing degree of neutralization. A more precise analysis of the small-angle scattering curve gives further information on the cluster structure: the ionic groups may form small bilayer disks while the polymer chains maintain a regular distance of 80 Å between the disks.     

9‐Benzylidene‐9H‐fluorene Derivatives Linked to Monoaza‐15‐crown‐5: Synthesis and Metal Ion Sensing

Two kinds of novel styryl chemosensory 2‐FMNC and 3‐FMNC, were designed and synthesized by an apporiate introduction of 9‐benzylidene‐9H‐fluorene group as fluorophore with the aim at avoiding photoisomerisation. These 9‐benzylidene‐9H‐fluorene derivatives showed the similar selectivity and sensitivity upon addition of metal ions. The sensitivity of FMNC to alkaline earth metal ions was Ba²⁺>Sr²⁺>Ca²⁺≈Mg²⁺.     

Réduction alkylante de quelques composés hétéroaromatiques polyazotés

The reduction-aldylation of quinoxaline, phthalazine and pyrido[2,3-b] pyrazine by potassium borohydride in a carboxylic acid medium is described. Formic, acetic, chloroacetic and propinic acids were used. The diazine ring of the molecule was reduced and alkylated into an N,N¹-dialkyltetrahydro compound. With quinoxaline and formic acid, N-formylation may be an important factor. Sodium borodeuteride allows one to prepare an hexadeuterated compound.     

Etude par Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire de dérivés anthracéniques: II—Anisotropie magnétique du phényle et effets steriques

The peri effect induced by the phenyl group has been studied in the anthracene series by means of ¹H and ¹³C n.m.r. The chemical shifts of overcrowded protons can be explained by a combination of magnetic anisotropy and steric effects. Steric contributions amount to c. 25% of the phenyl induced shift at the peri position. Amongst published ring-current theories, only the model of Johnson and Bovey is capable of describing correctly the shielding region of the phenyl group. The unexpected shieldings and deshieldings, observed by ¹³C n.m.r. in the case of very hindered derivatives, is probably due to distortions of the anthracene skeleton.     

Metastable [C4H8O]+˙ ions: Additional decompositions via the [2-butanone]+˙ ion

The losses of methyl and ethyl through the intermediacy of the [2-butanone]⁺˙ ion are shown to be the dominant metastable decomposition of 14 of 19 [C₄H₈O]⁺˙ ions examined. The ions that decompose via the [2-butanone]⁺˙ structure include ionized aldehydes, unsaturated and cyclic alcohols and enolic ions. [Cyclic ether]⁺˙ [cyclopropylmethanol]⁺˙ and [2-methyl-1-propen-1-ol]⁺˙ ions do not decompose through ionized 2-butanone. The rearrangements of various [C₄H₈O]⁺˙ ions the the 2-butanone ion were investigated by means of deuterium labeling. Those pathways involve up to eight steps. Ions with the oxygen on the end carbon rearrange to a common structure or mixture of structures. Those ions which ultimately rearrange to the [2-butanone]⁺˙ ion then undergo oxygen shifts from the terminal to the second and third carbons at about equal rates. However, this oxygen shift does not precede the losses of water and ethylene. Losses of water and ethylene were unimportant for ions with the oxygen initially on the second carbon. Ionized n-butanal and cyclobutanol, but not other [C₄H₈O]⁺˙ ions, undergo reversible hydrogen exchange between the oxygen and the terminal carbon. Rearrangement of ionized n-butanal to the [cyclobutanol]⁺˙ ion is postulated.     

Nature et stabilité des complexes métalliques de cryptands dinucléants en solution II. Polythiamacrotricycles et monocycles apparentés

Nature and Stability of Some Metallic Complexes of Dinucleating Cryptands in Solution II. Polythiamacrotricycles and Related Monocyclic Subunits The stability constants of the Cu²⁺ and Ag⁺ complexes of the cylindrical macrotricycle 1a (1,7,13,19-tetraaza 4,16-dioxa 10,22,27,32-tetrathiatricyclo[17.5.5.5]tetratriacontane) have been determined by pH-metry, as well as those of the Cu²⁺, Co²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Ag⁺ complexes of the monocyclic subunit 2a (1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diaza 4,10-dithiacyclododecane), in aqueous solutions (NaClO₄) at 25°. In the Cu(II) systems, equilibria were reached slowly, and the results established by pH-metry were confirmed by UV/VIS spectrophotometric studies. The tricycle 1a forms dinuclear cryptates with copper and silver, with overall stability constants log β₂₁₀ (Cu₂- 1a )⁴⁺ = 18.5, log β_21-2 (Cu₂- 1a (OH)₂)²⁺ = 4.8, log β₂₁₀(Ag₂- 1a )²⁺ = 23.0. Ag⁺ also forms a mononuclear (Ag- 1a )⁺ complex, with log β₁₁₀ = 13.1, but no mononuclear species were detected in the Cu- 1a system. The absorption spectra of the bis-Cu(II) complexes of 1a and 2a in aqueous medium, MeOH and propylene carbonate (PC) are given, as well as those, in MeOH and PC, of the bis-copper complexes of the related monocycles 3 and 4 (1,7-diaza-4,10,13-trithiacyclopentadecane and 1.10-diaza 4,7,13,16-tetrathiacyclooctadecane, respectively), and tricycle 5 with two benzyl groups in the lateral chains. The complexing properties of the polyoxa- and polythia macrotricycles (Parts I and II of this series) are compared to those of other bis-chelating ligands, the bicyclic bis-tren and the monocyclic bis-dien.     

Stabilité dans le méthanol et propriétés thermodynamiques de transfert des cryptates de certains cations de transition et de métaux lourds

Stability in Methanol and Thermodynamic Transfer Properties of the Cryptates of some Transition Cations and Heavy Metals The nature and stability of the macrocyclic and macrobicyclic complexes of Ag⁺, Cd²⁺, and Pb²⁺ (Mⁿ⁺) with 21, 22, 211, 221 and 222 in anhydrous methanol 0.05M in Et₄N⁺ClO^?₄, at 25° (see Scheme) have been determined by potentiometry and spectrophotometry. Binuclear complexes M₂L²ⁿ⁺ have been observed in all cases, besides the mononuclear MLⁿ⁺ complexes. The macrobicyclic 1:1 complexes MLⁿ⁺ exhibit an important ‘cryptate effect’ with Mⁿ⁺=Ag⁺, Pb²⁺ and Cd²⁺, but not with Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺; their stability is in all cases maximum with 221. The applicability to our results of the recent extrathermodynamic hypothesis involving MLⁿ⁺ cryptates is examined.     

Dérivés de sucres benzimidazoliques et benzothiazoliques

Benzimidazole and benzothiazole sugar derivatives Simple aldehydosugars such as 1 or 2 , by reaction with o-phenylenediamine, gave the corresponding benzimidazoles 3 and 4 . Whereas the unperturbed α, β-unsaturated aldehydosugar D gave the benzodiazepine E upon treatment with o-phenylenediamine, the formyl-bearing alkenyl acetals 5 and 8 led, in the same conditions, to the benzimidazoles 6 and 9 respectively or, on reaction with o-aminothiophenol, to the benzothiazoles 7 and 10 respectively. This difference in reactivity is explained by the electrondonor ability of the oxygen atom of the alkenyl acetal function as shown by the ¹³C-RMN. spectra.
