Synthesis,characterization, and ring-opening polymerization of novel high Tg macrocyclic oligomers based on 1,2-dihydro-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)(2H)- phthalazin-1-one

Preparation of novel high T_g (220–280°C) macrocyclic oligomers in high yield by the reaction of 1,2-dihydro-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)(2H)phthalazin-1-one with activated difluoro-monomers is described. The reaction, conducted under pseudo-high dilution conditions, produces cyclic oligomers in 90–97% isolated yield. Detailed structural characterization of these novel oligomers by the combination of NMR, MALDI–TOF–MS, GPC, and reverse-phase HPLC confirm the cyclic nature and reveal the composition of these cyclic oligomers. MALDI–TOF–MS which enables the detection of oligomers with mass up to 6000 Da, is shown to be a very powerful tool for determination of and the proof of the cyclic nature of the cyclic oligomers. The MALDI results provide answers to the possible combinations of monomer units in the cyclic oligomeric components for random co-cyclic oligomers. Rheological measurement of cyclic oligomers 3c shows that the cyclic oligomers are thermally stable in the melt and the molten cyclic oligomers essentially behave like Newtonian fluids. At 340°C and 100 s⁻¹ the steady-state shear viscosity of the molten cyclic oligomers 3c is only about 14 poise. Ring-opening polymerization of the co-cyclic oligomers 4 to a high molecular weight polymer with M_w = 87,000 is achieved by heating at 340°C for 45 min in the presence of a nucleophilic initiator. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Bromo derivatives of 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)dihydrouracil and 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5- or -6-metehyldihydrouracils

Bromination of 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)dihydrouracil and its 6-methyl derivative with bromine in refluxing acetic acid gave 1-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-bromo-, 1-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-bromo-, and 1-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-bromo-6-methyldihydrouracils and 1-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-methyluracil. 5-Bromo- and 5,5-dibromodihydrouracils were dehydrobrominated, and the same compounds undergo decomposition to 3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenylurea upon alkaline hydrolysis.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1251–1254, September, 1982.

Synthesis of Boron-containing Complexes of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-one

Condensation of o-hydroxyacetophenone with benzaldehyde in alcohol in the presence of a triple excess of a sodium hydroxide solution leads to 2'-hydroxychalcone sodium salt. The latter was heated with boron trifluoride etherate in toluene to a 2'-hydroxychalcone boron fluoride complex in which the boron atom is coordinated to the carbonyl oxygen atom. The same complex was obtained by boiling of the o-hydroxyacetophenone boron fluoride complex with benzaldehyde in acetic anhydride.     

Study of infrared and mass spectra of N-2-(3'-phthalide-yl)phthalazin-1-one

The infrared and mass spectra of N-2-(3'-phthalide-yl)phthalazin-1-one were studied. The loss of one or two natural CO residues was observed from the title compound and its partial fragment ions. Using the MIKE spectrum of ion m/z 250, its most possible structure was confirmed. Two possible paths of the formation of the title compound were also proposed.

Synthesis and transformations of 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)dihydrouracils

N-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)--alanine and its methyl derivatives, as well as p-hydroxyphenylamino-, '-dipropionic acid, were obtained by the reaction of p-aminophenol with methyl acrylate and acrylic, methacrylic, and crotonic acids. The -alanines were converted to the corresponding hydrazides and 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)dihydro- and thiodihydrouracils, which were decyclized by the action of alkalis to ureido and thioureido acids and were dehydrogenated by heating with sulfur to give uracils. The dihydro- and thiodihydrouracils were alkylated and acetylated.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1400–1406, October, 1982.     

Is samoquasine A indeed benzo[f]phthalazin-4(3H)-one? Unambiguous, straightforward synthesis of benzo[f]phthalazin-4(3H)-one and its regioisomer benzo[f]phthalazin-1(2H)-one

In search for the structural elucidation of samoquasine A, a natural product isolated from the seeds of Annona squamosa L., two benzo[f]phthalazinone isomers have been synthesized. The synthetic pathway followed to build up these skeletons is based on the combination of two Suzuki reactions on a pyridazinone precursor and a ring closure reaction via a condensation reaction. ¹H NMR data of the synthesized compound allowed to establish that the structure of the natural product samoquasine A is not benzo[f]phthalazin-4(3H)-one, as previously suggested.

Thermodynamic functions of thermotropic polyethers based on the semiflexible mesogen 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(2-methyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane

Heat capacities of a series of thermotropic polyethers consisting of a semiflexible mesogen [1-(4-hydroxyphenyl) - 2 - (2 - methyl - 4 - hydroxyphenyl)ethane], with n methylene flexible spacers (n = 4–12) (MBPE-n) have been measured by DSC and fitted at low temperature to an approximate frequency spectrum, as well as at high temperature to a general equation for the liquid MBPE-n. The latter equation is: C_p = n(17.33 + 0.04551T) + (280.9 + 0.3839T) where n is the number of methylenes in the polyether spacer. The calculated vibration-only heat capacities start to show deviations from the measured heat capacities below the melting temperature, reflecting contributions from conformational disorder and motion in methylene spacers. It is suggested that part of this increase in heat capacity can be looked upon as a glass transition of the partially conformationally disordered crystals. Solid state ¹³C–NMR studies showed similarly that over the range of temperature some of the C? C bonds in the spacer are in a rotational state similar to that in the melt. The equilibrium heats of fusion (ΔH) and the changes of heat capacity (ΔC_p) for the amorphous polymer at the glass transition temperature, T_g, were determined by WAXD and DSC. Based on the discrepancy of ΔC_p it is concluded that these phenylene containing polyethers have a certain amount of rigid amorphous polymer. Thermodynamic functions H, S and G for all of the polyethers have been established.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of thermochroic 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-dimethylamino-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl) cyclohexadien-2,5-one

The compound 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-dimethylamino-4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)cyclohexadien-2,5-one is synthesized and its structure is studied. The thermochromism of the compound is due to cleavage on excitation of the C_spiro-N bond, which is lengthened to 1.512 Å under normal conditions, and O N proton transfer. A deeply colored diphenoquinone and dimethylamine are formed. The C_spiro-N bond is lengthened due to mutual steric repulsion of the atoms bound to C⁴ and N.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1808–1813, August, 1991.
