Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXII. Aryl(ou aralcoyl ou alcoyl)amino-2-tétrahydro-m-thiazines ou aryl(ou aralcoyl ou alcoyl)amino-2-dihydro-Δ2-m-thiazines et dérivés

3-Aminopropanol reacts with aryl(or aralkyl or alkyl)isothiocyanates R? N?C?S to yield the corresponding thio-ureas R? NH? CS? NH? (CH₂)₃OH which, refluxed with hydrochloric acid, are cyclized by elimination of water. The cyclization products are identical with the hydrothiazines resulting by elimination of sulfate or phosphate from the sulfuric or phosphoric monoesters of these thio-ureas. The resulting hydrothiazines are either 2-(R-imino)-tetrahydro-m-thiazines (I) or 2-(R-amino)-dihydro-Δ²-m-thiazines (II). Their structure has been established by comparison of their spectra with those of model compounds in one of which the C?N double bond is certainly endocyclic (2-methyl-dihydro-Δ²-m-thiazine), the other presenting an exocyclic C?N double bond (3-methyl-2-phenylimino-tetrahydro-m-thiazine). When R is an aryl group, the C?N double bond is exocyclic (structure I with >C?N? Ar), and one may presume that this structure is stabilized by resonance. When R is an aralkyl or an alkyl group, the C?N double bond is endocyclic (structure II). The nmr spectra were taken with three types of solvent: CDCl₃ or CCl₄; (CD₃)₂SO; CF₃COOH. In CF₃COOH solution the benzylic protons of the hydrothiazine with R = pF? C₆H₄CH₂? couple with NH (J=5,5cps) which confirms the endocyclic position of the C?N double bond in this case.     

L'action de l'ammoniac sur l'hydroxyde de cobalt(II) et la stabilité des complexes en milieu aqueux

From the solubility of precipitated Co(OH)₂ (s) determined radiometrically as a function of pH and ammonia content of the heterogeneous systems, the formation constants have been obtained for the following mononuclear hydroxo-, ammine- and mixed hydroxo-ammine-complexes: Co(OH)₂, Co(OH)₃^?, Co(NH₃)₂²⁺, Co(NH₃)₃²⁺, Co(NH₃)₄²⁺ and Co(OH)₂ (NH₃)₂. The solubility of cobalt(II) hydroxide has also been calculated. The medium was 1M NaClO₄ and the temperature 25° C.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXIX [1]. Sur la réaction de l′isothiocyanate d′o-méthoxycarbonyl-phényle avec divers acides et l′acide sérinephosphorique

Amino acids devoid of «leaving groups» on their β carbon atom (neither ? OH: serine, nor ? SH: cysteine) react with o-methoxycarbonyl-phenyl isothiocyanate (I) in the presence of one equivalent of NaOH, in water-dioxane or in ethanol, to yield the corresponding hydroquinazolinone derivatives II which were isolated as free acids. When treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl the hydroquinazolinone resulting from the reaction of L -serine with I undergoes a nucleophilic attack of the carbon bearing the leaving group ? OH by a lone pair of electrons of S; this attack produces the formation of an additional thiazolidine ring, yielding the thiazoloquinazolinone derivative (?)-III. In an analogous reaction DL -serine phosphoric acid treated with I at pH 8–9 yields the corresponding substituted hydroquinazolinone which, boiled in 1N hydrochloric acid, undergoes ring closure to (±)-III by the same mechanism as the serine derivative (leaving group: ? OPO₃H₂). L -Cysteine reacted with 2 equiv. of I and then treated with CH₃COOH + conc. HCl gives two products: (?)-III produced by the same mechanism as for serine (leaving group: ? SH), and the quinazolinone derivative IV where the ? SH group is also thiocarbamoylated.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXVII. Note sur la scission des acides ω-(N-phénylthiocarbamylamino)-alcoyl-sulfuriques à divers pH

In aqueous solutions at 100°C varying from HCl 2N to NaOH 2N , N-phenylthiocarbamoyl derivatives of aminoalkylsulfuric monoesters C₆H₅NH? CS? R? OSO₃H are split in the following ways:

• (a) With R = ? CH₂? CH(CH₃)? or ? (CH₂)₃? the scission of the monoester group is very rapid in the hole pH-range studied, especially in alkaline medium; the resulting cyclic products, 5-methyl-2-phenylamino-thiazoline and 2-phenylimino-tetrahydrothiazine respectively, formed by nucleophilic attack of an unshared pair of the S atom on the C bearing the monoester group, have been isolated and identified.
• (b) With R = ? (CH₂)₄? , the rate of the scission in alkaline or neutral medium is very much higher than that of an alkylsulfuric monoester; in these media a cyclic product is also formed (this time by nucleophilic attack of the unshared pair of the thiocarbamoylated N atom on the C bearing the monoester function) which has been isolated after alcaline scission, and identified as N-phenylcarbomoyl-pyrrolidine. In acid medium, no special influence of the phenylthiocarbamoyl group is observed.
• (c) With R = ? (CH₂)₅? or ? (CH₂)₆? , the rate of the scission in alkaline medium is 30 to 1000 times lower than in the previous cases; no pure organic scission products have been isolated. In acid or neutral medium, these two esters behave like usual alkylsulfuric acids.

     

Réarrangements en milieu acide trifluoroacétique de deux alcaloïdes indoliques: la desformocorymine et la dihydrocorymine

The rearrangement in trifluoroacetic acid of two indole alkaloids of the echitamine series, desformocorymine (14) and dihydrocorymine (9) , has been investigated. Desformocorymine (14) was tranformed into a mixture of carbinolamines 17a , b , with the akuammiline skeleton, which were reduced (Et₃SiH, CF₃CO₂H) into an isomer 12 of cathafoline (6). This sequence constitutes the first example of an interconversion of the corymine skeleton into the akuammiline skeleton (Scheme 2). In the case of dihydrocorymine (9) , the rearrangement followed a different pathway owing to the formation of a hemiacetal between the primary alcohol CH₂(17)-OH and a carbonyl formed at C(3). Treatment of this hemiacetal 26 with aqueous base led to its opening with concomitant formation of a lactam. ¹³C-NMR seems to indicate that this lactam exists under a hydrated form 27. This highly unstable intermediate was cleanly transformed (MeONa-MeOH) into a 2-acyl indole 30 (Scheme 4), the structure of which was determined by X-ray crystallography. The formation of this acylindole involves the rupture of the C(7)? C(16) bond; it is the reverse of the reaction generally postulated as occurring in the biogenesis of the pentacyclic alkaloids. The structure of a by-product 34 was established as 17-hydroxymethylvincoridine by X-ray crystallography. The acid-catalyzed rearrangements involve the rupture of the Ph-N? C? N chromophore, with formation of a carbonyl at C(3). The reversibility of these steps is used in an easy correlation of dihydrocorymine and of 3-epidihydrocorymine via their trifluoroacetates.     

L'action de l'ammoniac sur l'hydroxyde de cadmium et la stabilité des complexes en milieu aqueux

The solubility of precipitated Cd(OH)₂ was determined at 25°C in 1 M NaClO₄, as a function of pH and of the ammonia content of the solutions. Formation constants were obtained for the following hydroxo, ammine and hydroxo-ammine complexes: CdOH⁺, Cd(OH)₂, Cd(OH), CdNH, Cd(NH₃), Cd(NH₃), Cd(NH₃) and Cd(OH)₂NH₃. The solubility product of the hydroxide was also calculated. The presence of polynuclear species was investigated by titrimetric determinations of the hydrogen ion concentration at constant metal concentration.     

Structures cristallines et moléculaires des muscs macrocycliques III. La muscone et sa 2,4-dinitrophénylhydrazone

Crystal and Molecular Structure of Macrocyclic Musks. III. Muscone and its 2, 4-Diuitrophenylhydrazone Muscone (3-methylcyclopentadecanone C₁₆H₃₀O) forms orthorhombic plastic-crystals with Z = 2 (a = 5.560(4), b = 8.176(6), c = 17,168(20) Å). Single crystals are obtained by zone melting at 258 °K. The high degree of disorder and the ambiguity of space group have precluded a structural determination by X-ray diffraction methods. The crystal structure of muscone 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (DNPHM; C₂₂H₃₄N₄O₄, triclinic, space group P¯, a = 8.015 (4), b = 8.235 (2), c = 17.409 (4) Å. α = 102.69 (4), β; = 93.86 (3), γ = 96.03 (3)° Z = 2) was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R of 0.155 (R_ω = 0.102). The macrocycle shows static disorder, which could be partially resolved by analysis of the anisotropy of the atomic vibrational parameters. Eight possible conformers with reasonable geometries emerged from the subsequent refinements and were used as starting models in force-field calculations, which converged to four quinquangular conformations ([25233]; [34233]; [21423*4]; [3423*4]) with similar energies. In the molecular packing, the interactions between macrocycles and substituents are minimized. They are comparable to those described for the cis- and trans-civetone DNPH derivatives [1] [2].     

Sur la Similitude des Déformations du Noyau Cyclohexanonique Induites par les Groupes Tertiobutyle et gem-Diméthyle

X-ray and NMR (250 MHz) data for chlorinated 4,4-dimethylcyclohexanones lead to the following conclusions: carbonyl and chlorine substituent effects on ²J and ³J coupling constants are similar to those observed for 4-tert-butylcyclohexanones. In other respects, the gem dimethyl and the tert-butyl groups induce on the ring similar large ⁴J coupling constants (H-3′? C-3? C-4? C-5? H-5′); the results can be interpreted in terms of local gemoetric deformations and additivity of these deformations. The determination of dihedral angles by Lambert's method and from X-ray data shows the identity of the structures in the solid state and the dissolved state and confirms the great structural similarity between 4-tert-butyl- and 4,4-dimethylcyclohexanone derivatives.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXXI [1]. Sur la réaction d'isothiocyanates avec l'acide hydrazinoéthylphosphorique,et de l'isocyanate de phényle avec l'acide colaminephosphoreux

Hydrazinoethyl phosphoric monoester has been prepared by reacting hydrazinoethanol with polyphosphoric acid, and isolated as di-sodium salt. Sodium hydrazinoethyl phosphate reacts with phenylisothiocyanate (in H₂O+ethanol) to yield mainly the derivative thiocarbamoylated at the substituted nitrogen atom. This derivative, heated for one night at 100° in 0.5 N HCl, is cyclized to 3-amino-2-phenylimino-thiazolidine in 62% yield. Sodium hydrazinoethyl phosphate reacts with o-methoxycarbonylphenyl isothiocyanate (in H₂O+dioxane) at the unsubstituted nitrogen atom to yield mainly the corresponding quinazoline derivative (IV, X = OPO₃Na₂). This derivative, heated for one night at 100° in 0.5 N HCl, is cyclized to 2-o-carboxyphenylamino-dihydro-δ²-1, 3, 4-thiadiazine (Va) in 55% yield (hydrolysis of the lactamic function as well). Aminoethyl phosphorous monoester (colaminephosphorous acid) reacted with phenylisocyanate (in H₂0+dioxane) in slightly alkaline medium (one equivalent of NaOH) yields sodium N-phenylcarbamoylaminoethyl phosphite. Refluxed for 20 minutes in 1N NaOH, this carbamoyl derivative is not cyclized but only hydrolyzed to the open-chained N-phenyl-N′-hydroxyethylurea (VII).     

Réactions du diazométhane III. Etude de la réaction d'insertion entre diazométhane et phénylcarbamates: comportement de la N-(phénoxy-carbonyl)-aniline et de la N-(p-nitrophénoxy-carbonyl)-aniline

Diazomethane reacts with N-(p-nitrophenoxy-carbonyl)-aniline giving on the one hand p-nitroanisole and phenylisocyanate, the latter being transformed into N-phenyl-β-propiolactam, and on the other hand N-(p-nitrophenoxy)-acetanilide by insertion. N-(phenoxy-carbonyl)-aniline does not react. The insertion reaction seems to depend on the heterolysis of the bond between the oxygen of the p-nitrophenoxy group and the carbamic carbonyl function, which is strongly polarized (existence of a mesomeric nitro-phenoxonium). The insertion is equally influenced y the nature of the radical R attached to the carbamic nitrogen: with R = ? CH₂COOC₂H₅ the reaction yields only isocyanate, with R = ? C₆H₅ it yields at the same time the isocyanate and the insertion product.     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXVIII. Sur la réaction de l'isothiocyanate d'o-méthoxycarbonyl-phényle avec des diamines et l'hydrazine,et sur la cyclisation de quelques N-phényl-N′-hydroxyalcoyl-thio-urées

1-Amino-2-dimethylamino-ethane and 1-amino-3-dimethylamino-propane react with o-methoxycarbonylphenyl isothiocyanate (I) to yield the corresponding 3-(ω-dimethylaminoalkyl)-2-thiono-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolin-4-ones (V). The tertiary amino group of V is quaternized to the corresponding ammonio derivative VI when treated with methyl iodide in methanol.

N-Aryl(or aralkyl or alkyl)carbamoyl-aminoalkyl phosphoric monoesters have been prepared by the reaction of isocyanates R′-N?C?O on the corresponding amino-alkylphosphoric monoesters H₂N? R? OPO₃H₂ in the presence of 2 equivalents of NaOH. The rates of scission of the phosphoric monoester group and occasionally of the phenylcarbamoylamino group of these monoesters have been studied at 100°, in solutions 0.1M in ester and at various pH.

Étude des Paramètres de Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire et de la Stéréochimie de Thiono-2 R-2 Dithiaphosphorinanes-1,3,2

The ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P n.m.r. spectra of eleven 2-R-2-thiono-1,3,2-dithiaphosphorinanes with various R groups attached to the phosphorus atom have been recorded and analysed. In the compounds where R=Cl, OMe or N, the molecule adopts a chair conformation with the R group axially oriented. When the molecule adopts a chair conformation with equatorially oriented R. In the case of the derivatives with R=phenyl, Me, N(Me)₂ or NHt-Bu, a chair–chair conformational equilibrium was observed. The hindered rotation about the P? N bond was also examined in the derivative with      

Substitution électrophile aromatique dans l'anhydride sulfureux liquide. Influence de la concentration en bromure et rôle du solvant sur la réactivité des anisoles au cours de la réaction de bromation

Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution in Liquid Sulfur Dioxide. Kinetic Dependance of Rate on the Bromide Concentration and Influence of the Solvent during the Course of the Reaction On the reported data for bromination of anisole and eleven of its derivatives in liquid SO₂, it was shown that, with a large excess of bromide, the rate of reaction, obeys a first-order law. Rate constants thus obtained do not discriminate between the two different forms of bromide, e.g. Br₂ and Br^?₃ present as the A⁺Br^?₃ form, and corrections were made by use of the apparent equilibrium constant K′ for tribromide formation. The variations of rate constants with initial concentration of bromide has been studied and the effect results in a retardation of the bromination rate. Moreover, the ratio [Br₂] [A⁺Br^?]_T, which is constant during an experiment, varies with initial bromide concentrations, this variation affecting the total rate. To account for the bromide effect on the reactivity, variations of k^o,p_g {1 + K′[A⁺Br^?]_T}VS[A⁺Br^?]_T were studied over a 0.01 to 1M range of bromide concentration. The mechanism proposed shows that liquid SO₂ helps the reactive intermediate to be deprotonated and because of solvation of reactive species this step would probably be rate determining. Bromination by molecular bromine is more sensitive to substituent effects in liquid SO₂ than in water. This result is ascribed to the +M effect of the methoxy group which increase the conjugation of ortho-substituted derivatives (p⁺_p = ?7.83; p⁺_o= ?10.47).     

Recherches sur la formation et la transformation des esters LXXI Sur la préparation des acides ω-(phénylthiocarbamylamino)-alcoylphosphoriques et sur leur scission à divers pH

Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire en phase nématique. Exploration de la barrière d'empêchement à la libre rotation pour le fluorure d'acroyle et l'acroléine

The NMR spectrum of acrolein and acroyl fluoride (CH₂?CH? COX with X?H and F) oriented in a nematic phase has been measured and information about conformational equilibrium s-cis ? s-trans has been obtained. The barrier to internal rotation of the COX group has been studied with various hypotheses. Good agreement between experimental and calculated spectra has been obtained using the potential equation V(?) = Σ_nV_n(1 – cos n?)/2, with V₁ = ?200 cal mol^?1, V₂ = 1500 cal mol^?1 and V₃ = 400 cal mol^?1 for the fluorine compound, and V₁ = 1200 cal mol^?1, V₂ = 3000 cal mol^?1 and V₃ = 2000 cal mol^?1 for acrolein; this last compound is found to be mostly in the s-trans conformation.     

Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire en phase nématique. Exploration de la barrière d'empêchement à la libre rotation de la monofluoroacétone

The NMR spectra of monochloro-, monobromo- and monofluoroacetone (CH₃? CO? CH₂X with X = Cl, Br, F) oriented in a nematic phase have been measured and the direct dipolar coupling constants determined. The barrier to internal rotation for the CH₂F group has been studied for fluorine compound using various hypotheses. The best agreement with IR data has been obtained using the potential equation V(θ) = Σ_n V_n × (1 – cos nθ)/2 and a Boltzmann distribution of the CH₂F group (V₁ = 250 ± 50 cal.mol^?1, V₂ = 1650 ± 100 cal.mol^?1, V₃ = ?1000 ± 100 cal.mol^?1).     

Le mécanisme de la réduction polarographique des dérivés ditosyloxylés et son implication en électrochimie préparative

The cleavage of a single SO₂? O bond occurs during the polarographic reduction of a tosyloxy group (p? CH₃C₆H₄SO₂O = TsO) in aprotic medium and intramolecular cyclisation may ensue when a second TsO group is present on the same molecule. The polarographic behaviour of aliphatic ditosyloxy derivatives is discussed on the assumption that oriented vicinal derivatives at the interface assume a conformation which resembles the geometry of the transition state for an intramolecular elimination with anchimeric assistance of one of the tosyloxy groups. This situation favours the electron transfer, whereas the same geometric requirements hinder the intramolecular interaction of the TsO groups of the oriented non-vicinal derivatives. This interpretation agrees well with the fact that the large scale electrolysis of vicinal ditosyloxy derivatives give much higher yield of cyclic ethers than the higher homologues. It is also shown that intramolecular interaction between TsO groups can occur through an intervening double bond in a non-vicinal derivative.     

Dérivés Alléniques du Phosphore. Influence de l'État de Coordination du Phosphore et de la Nature des Radicaux Liés au Phosphore sur les Signes de J(P?H)

The signs of the phosphorus-proton coupling constants in various allenic organophosphorus compounds have been determined by either analysis of the AB₂X spectra or double resonance. Probable absolute signs have been obtained by taking ³J(P? H) as positive. In allenic phosphine oxides, the following signs are obtained: ²J(P? H) +ve, ³J(P? H) +ve, ⁴J(P? H) ?ve, ⁵J(P? H) +ve and the ⁴J(P? H) coupling constant varies mostly with the inductive effect of the substituents bound to the phosphorus atom. In allenic phosphines, these sings are: ²J(P? H) +ve, ³J(P? H) +ve, ⁴J(P? H) ?ve and +ve and the ⁴J(P? H) coupling constant varies with both the inductive and resonance effects to the substituents. This coupling constant is negative except when the phosphorus atom is bound to groups which are electron-donating by resonance effects. These results are discussed in relation to the pπ? dπ bonding in phosphine.
