Effects of oxygen in the photolysis of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinonediazide in CCl4

Conclusions The photolysis of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinonediazide in CCl₄, gives 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone in the presence of O₂ in addition to the cage product, 4-chloro-4-trichloromethyl-2,6-di-tert-butylcyclohexadienone. A mechanism has been proposed for the photolysis of the quinonediazide in the presence and absence of oxygen.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2325–2327, October, 1987.     

Antioxidants and stabilizers: Part XCV—A co-operative effect between antioxidants N-iso-propyl-N′-phenyl-1,4-phenylene diamine and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol

In the process of stabilization against the autooxidation of hydrocarbons, the more effective of the two title antioxidants, i.e. N-iso-propyl-N′-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (Ia), is transformed into N-iso-propyl-N′-phenyl-1,4-benzoquinonediimine (IIa). The stability of (IIa) is reduced in an acid medium. In an inert atmosphere and in the presence of weak acids (IIa) reacts quickly with 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, giving rise to 3,3′,5,5′-tetra-tert-butyl-4,4′-biphenyldiol (VI) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(4-phenyl-aminophenylamino)-2,5-cyclohexadiene-1-one (Va). In the presence of a relatively low amount of oxygen (Ia), 3,3′,5,5′-tetra-tert-butyldiphenoquinone (IV), (Va) and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (VII) are formed. In this way, conditions for co-operative action between the two antioxidants are provided. In the absence of acids the reaction proceeds much more slowly and (Va) is not formed. The mechanism of formation of all the compounds is discussed. There is no pronounced synergism between (Ia) and 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol during the autooxidation of squalene (natural rubber model) in pure oxygen and in a neutral medium. In the presence of 1 vol. % of acetic acid the effectiveness of antioxidant (Ia) is strongly reduced, particularly at elevated concentrations. In a mixture of (Ia) with 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol, a pronounced co-operative effect can be observed.     

Kinetics and mechanism of photolysis of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone diazide in benzene and deuterobenzene

Conclusions It has been established by kinetic and spectral methods that the cyclohexadiene carbene generated in the photolysis of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone diazide in benzene predominantly in the singlet state reacts with benzene to form a norcaradiene derivative, which isomerizes thermally to 4-phenylcyclohexadiene-2,5-one. The latter is converted thermally to 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-phenylphenol.Translated from Izvestiya Akadeinii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 12, pp. 2680–2685, December, 1986.     

Preparation and properties of phosphaethynes bearing bulky aryl groups with electron-donating substituents at the para position

Phosphaethynes bearing a 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(dimethylamino)phenyl, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenyl, or 2,6-di-tert-butylphenyl group were prepared. A (31)P NMR spectroscopic investigation of the chemical shifts indicated that electron-donating groups at the para position cause shifts to a higher field. Bathochromic shifts caused by the electron-donating groups were apparently observed in UV-vis spectra. The structure of 2-[2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(dimethylamino)phenyl]-1-phosphaethyne was analyzed by X-ray crystallography.     

Fourier transform infrared studies of inhibited autoxidation in cis-1,4-polybutadiene

The inhibited autoxidation of cis-1,4-polybutadiene (BR) was examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) in the presence of three chain-breaking antioxidants: 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (CA-1); 4,4′-methylene-bis-(2,6-di-tert-butylphenol) (CA-2) and N-phenyl-2-naphthylamine (CA-3). Weak interaction is detected between the phenolic OH and arylamine NH groups and the rubber unsaturation. These antioxidants terminate two or more kinetic chains per molecule and their mechanisms are described.

Chemical polarization of nuclei

Conclusions The reaction of 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinonediazide with primary aliphatic amines leads to the formation of intermediate unstable triazenes which, in turn, break down through a radical mechanism to form 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-benzoquinone, the final reaction products.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 771–775, April, 1977.     

2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-perimidylphenols and their oxidation

1,8-Naphthylenediamine was reacted with 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-formyl-phenol to produce 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(1,3-dihydro-perimidyl) phenol (I). The latter was coverted into 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(1H-perimidyl)phenol (II) by oxidizing I with sodium pyrosulfate. When phenol II was oxidized by lead dioxide in toluene and THF, the EPR spectra revealed a 12-component multiplet with perimidyl splitting constants a¹ _N=a³ _N=a_H ^NH=0.2 mT; a_H ^6.7=0.6 mT.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 28, No. 1, pp. 64–67, January, 1992.     

Cyclohexadienone diazeniumdiolates from nitric oxide addition to phenolates

Sterically hindered phenols react with nitric oxide under basic condititons to give either cyclohexadienone diazeniumdiolates or oximates. Phenols with 2,6-di-tert-butyl and 4-methyl (butylated hydroxy toluene, BHT), 4-ethyl, or 4-methoxy methylene substituents yield the corresponding 2,6-di-tert-butyl-2, 5-cyclohexadienone-4-alkyl-4-diazeniumdiolate salts (4-methyl 1a, 4-ethyl 3a, 4-methoxymethylene 5a). Phenols with 2,6-di-tert-butyl and 4-methylene (2,6-di-tert-butylphenol) substituents yield 4-methoxymethylenediazeniumdiolate (5a) together with 2, 6-di-tert-butyl benzoquinone oximate (6a), while phenols with 2, 6-di-tert-butyl and 4-methylenedimethylamino or hydrogen substituents yield exclusively 2,6-di-tert-butyl benzoquinone oximate (6a). Alkylation of the silver salts of 1a, or treating the O(2)-protonated diazeniumdiolate with diazomethane, both yield mixtures of O(1)- and O(2)-methylated isomers. All the compounds exhibit exothermic thermal decomposition except the quinuclidinium (1e, 3e, 5e) and triethylenediammonium (1f) salts which decompose endothermically. Three of the compounds namely "O(2)-protonated" (Z)-1-[4-(2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-cyclohexadienonyl)]diazen-1-ium+ ++-1, 2-diolinic acid (1b), O(2)-methyl (Z)-1-[4-(2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-cyclohexadienonyl)]diazen-1-ium+ ++-1,2-diolate (1c), and "O(2)-protonated" (Z)-1-[4-(2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methoxymethylenecyclohexadienonyl)]diazen- 1-ium-1, 2-diolinic acid (5b) were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The diazeniumdiolate framework in all the structures is coplanar with considerable pi-bonding delocalized over the O-N-N-O framework.     

ESR study of free radicals produced from the reaction of o-substituted phenyl methacrylates with tert-butoxy radical

ESR spectra of radicals produced from the reactions of phenyl methacrylate (PMA) and four o-substituted PMAs, 2,4,6-trimethyl-, 2,6-diisopropyl-, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-, and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-PMAs, with tert-butyoxy radical were measured in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran over the temperature range of ?53 to ?15°C. The coupling constants of the β-methylene protons observed varied with the bulkiness of the o-substituents, whereas the p-substitution did not affect the pattern of the spectra. 2,6-Diisopropyl- and 2,4,6-timethyl-PMAs, which can form homopolymers, gave 5- and 13-line spectra, respectively. For the radicals from 2,6-di-tert-butyl- and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-PMAs, the same 8-line spectrum was observed, indicating that the coupling constant of one of the β-methylene protons was too small to detect. Conformations of the radicals were deduced from the coupling constants of the β-methylene protons. Variation of the ESR spectrum according to the bulkiness of the o-substituent was interpreted as a consequence of steric interactions between the polymer chain bound to the β carbon and the substituents, and the α-methyl group.     

1-oxo-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-chloropiperidinium perchlorate. A new facile oxidant for phenol coupling

The title compound (1) oxidizes 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol (2), 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (3), 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-(dipnenylmethyl)phenol (4), and p-naphthol (5), to quinones in good yield under mild conditions in acetonitrile. For unsubstituted phenols the reaction takes place in two ways, phenol (6) is oxidized to quinhydrone (7), while the oxidation products of the phenols, α-naphthol, catechol and 2,4-dihydroxyl-naphthol were only polymers.     

An efficient chemoenzymatic approach to enantiomerically pure 4-[2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl] substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates

An efficient chemoenzymatic synthesis of (−)-3-methyl 5-(2-propoxyethyl) (4R)-4-[2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydro-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate has been achieved. The key step is a highly stereoselective Candida rugosa lipase (CRL)-mediated asymmetrisation of the prochiral bis[(isobutyryloxy)methyl]-4-[2-(difluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate.     

The synthesis of some dialkyl 4-(3-substituted amino)phenyl-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates

Dialkyl 4-(3-aminophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates 1 were transformed into alkyl 4-(3-(((2-benzoylamino-2-methoxycarbonyl)ethenyl)amino)phenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates 4 and with 2,2-disubstituted-1-dimethylaminoethenes 7 into dimethyl 4-(3-(((2,2-diacyl- or 2-acyl-2-alkoxycarbonyl)ethenyl)amino)phenyl)-1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethylpyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates 8 and their ethyl methyl analogues 9.     

Effect of the solvent nature on the course of quaternization of 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-pyridyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine

The effect of the solvent nature and temperature on the quaternization of 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-2,6-di- methyl-4-(3-pyridyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine by lipophilic alkyl bromides has been investigated. By comparison of the solvent effect (acetone, acetonitrile, and 2-butanone) on the alkylation of the pyridine fragment of 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-pyridyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine it was established that conducting the reaction in acetonitrile at 81 °C is the most optimal.     

Hantzsch synthesis of 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-dimethoxycarbonyl-4-(o-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine; a novel cyclisation leading to an unusual formation of 1-amino-2-methoxy-carbonyl-3,5-bis(o-methoxyphenyl)-4-oxa-cyclohexan-1-ene

Hantzsch condensation of two equivalents of methyl-3-aminocrotonate with (m- and p)-methoxybenzaldehyde afforded the expected products 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-dimethoxycarbonyl-4-(m-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine and 2,6-dimethyl-3,5-dimethoxycarbonyl-4-(p-methoxyphenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine, whereas o-methoxy-benzaldehyde produced mainly 1-amino-2-methoxycarbonyl-3,5-bis(o-methoxy-phenyl)-4-oxa-cyclohexan-1-ene. The structure of the product, not previously reported in the literature, was determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectra and its MS fragmentation. This is the first example of cyclisation leading to a substituted pyran rather than 1,4-DHP under typical Hantzsch reaction conditions. A plausible mechanism for its formation is postulated.     

RING-OPENING POLYMERIZATION OF 1,4-DIOXAN-2-ONE INITIATED BY LANTHANUM TRIS( 2,6-DI- TERT-B UTYL-4-METHYLPHENOLATE)

The ring-opening polymerization of 1,4-dioxan-2-one (PDO) was carried out by lanthanum tris(2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenolate) (La(OAr)3) as novel single component initiator. The influences of polymerization reaction temperature and the molar ratio of monomer to initiator on the monomer conversion and molecular weight of poly(1,4-dioxan-2-one) (PPDO) were explored. PPDO with high viscosity average molecular weight of 1.95 × 105 can be prepared at 40℃ when [PDO]/ [La(OAr)3] molar ratio was 800. Mechanism investigation shows that the polymerization proceeds through a "coordinationinsertion" mechanism with selective rupture of acyl-oxygen bond of PDO.

New derivatives of imidazoline 3-oxide and thiazoline with 2,6-dialkylphenol fragments

(2,6-Dialkyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanones and aminooxides were used to obtain the corresponding 3-imidazoline 3-oxides. Nitrosylation of 3-imidazoline 3-oxide containing a phenol substituent proceeds either at the imidazoline ring amino group or at the phenol fragment. Intermolecular cyclization of (2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanone with sulfur and ammonia gave a 3-thiazoline as two diastereomers.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 62–67, January, 1986.
