Alcoylation par l'iodure de butyle,de l'enolate de tetrabutylammonium de l'acetylacetone; nature de l'entite reagissante

The alkylation of tetrabutylammonium acetylacetonate with butyl iodide was studied in order to specify the nature of the reactive anionic species during the nucleophilic reaction of an ambident anion, under similar conditions to those of phase transfer catalysis. The C/O alkylation ratio changes with neither the solvents nor the enolate concentration; however k_obs, varies with the solvent but does not depend on the énolate concentration. The results and spectrophotometric UV data show that only one reactive species, the ion-pair, is involved.     

Stéréochimie des réactions de réactifs de grignard au niveau de l'atome de silicium d'un cyclosilane asymétrique

The stereochemistry of coupling reactions of Grignard reagents and symetrical organomagnesium compounds with the silicon atom of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-(1-naphthyl)-2-silanaphthalene is studied. The results show that the electrophilic at the leaving group, by the metal atom is not a main factor for the retention of the configuration. It is possible to give a first explanaion of the stereochemical pathway of these reactions by considerig the “hard and soft” character of the attacking organometallic as well as polarisability of the leaving group.     

Obtention de phosphore élémentaire et de phosphures de nickel par électrolyse de solutions de pentoxyde de phosphore dans des bains à base de cryolithe

By electrolysis of cryolitic solutions of P₂O₅, elementary pure phosphorus is obtained on carbon cathode and Ni phosphides on Ni cathode. The most probable mechanism of phosphorus formation in these conditions seems to be the final dissociation of P₂O₅ in P⁵⁺ and O^2? and the primary electrodic discharge of these ions.     

Etude par spectrométrie de masse de l'ionisation de benzonitriles,de phénylacétonitriles et de N,N-diméthylanilines substitués

Molecular ionization potentials for series of compounds of the type X? C₆H₄? CN, X? C₆H₄CH₂? CN and X? C₆H₄? N(CH₃)₂ have been measured using the retarding potential difference technique (RPD. technique). The effect of the various substituents X is better correlated through the electrophilic Brown σ_p⁺ constants than through Hammett's σ_p values. No meta-para orientation effect is observed. For all the disubstituted phenyl compounds studied, the effect of the second substituent is affected by the electron-releasing power of the original substituent. Ionization potentials calculated by using the semi-empirical method of equivalent orbitals are in good agreement with the experimental values.     

Cycloaddition d'azides aux sels de nitrilium; obtention de sels de tetrazolium et de tetrazolines

The reaction of nitrilium salts with azides allows the synthesis with good yields of 1,4,5-alkyl or -aryl-substituted tetrazolium salts. The mechanism of this reaction is discussed. Reduction or alkylation of these tetrazolium salts leads to the corresponding tri- or tetra-substituted tetrazolines.     

Sinthese de copolymeres sequences de l'acetate de vinyle et de l'acrylate d'ethyle par telomerisation

A new two-step procedure for the synthesis of ethyl acrylate - vinyl acetate block copolymers is described : the first stage is the telomerisation of ethyl acrylate with carbon tetrachloride by redox catalysis, the second being another telomerisation of vinyl acetate, using the trichloromethyl end group of the first block as the telogen agent, with peroxydic initiation.     

Constantes de couplage de vinylallènes

In order to define the influence of an allenic type conjugation, the NMR spectra of vinylallene and of some of its methyl derivatives are analysed The signs of the coupling constants are also determined. These compounds are characterised by a planar s-trans structure of the two noncumulated double bonds. A discussion of the parameters, and especially of the methyl replacement effects, evidences the importance of the π type contributions. The theoretical calculations of the coupling constants by the methods of finite perturbation CNDO and INDO corroborate this interpretation.     

Effet de longueur d'onde et controle par la geometrie de l'etat fondamental de la photoisomerisation de derives de l'hexatriene-1,3,5

Irradiations at different wavelengths (313, 254, 229 and 214 nm) of the 4 geometric isomers of 5-phenyl-1,3,5-heptatriene show that the photochemical behaviour of these trienes is mainly controlled by their ground state equilibrium.     

Isolement de nouveaux complexes de zinc de dipyrrométhènes formés au cours de la synthèse de la méso-tétramésitylporphyrine par la réaction de Rothemund

Application de la réaction de Wittig à la synthèse de dérivés de bromoénosuloses et d'esters bromoénuroniques. Note de laboratoire

Use of the Wittig reaction for the synthesis of derivatives of bromoenosuloses and bromoenuronic esters Treatment of 3-O-benzyl (or 3-O-methyl)-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-D -xylo-pentodialdo-1, 4-furanoses ( 2 or 1 ) with acetylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 3 ), benzoylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 4 ) or bromoethoxycarbonylmethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 5 ) gave in good to excellent yields the expected enose ( 6--11 ). In all cases but one ( 8 where some 10% of the E-isomer was formed) the reaction led to the exclusive formation of the Z-isomer whose configuration was established by NMR.     

Sur la composition de l'arôme de thé

A gas-chromatographic investigation of black tea aroma has revealed, besides 19 known components, the presence of 4 new substances: 1-penten-3-ol, trans-2-hexen-1-ol, α-terpineol and β-ionone. The fragmentation pattern of 1-penten-3-ol has been determined by means of high resolution mass spectrography.     

A propos de la structure de pyrimidines obtenues par condensation de l'acide cyanacétique et de monoalkylurées

Classically, the condensation of cyanoacetic acid and monoalkylurea gives 1-alkyl-6-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-2,4-dione. However, this was verified only in two instances involving a long and delicate synthesis. The structure of the N′-cyanoacetyl-N-isobutylurea, an intermediate in the preparation of this type of pyrimidine, was confirmed by nmr. This method is capable of extension.     

Sur diverses possibilités de formation de pyrimidines à partir de formyl-3 chromone

Guanidine transforms the following: (a) 3-formylchromone into a mixture of 2-amino-5-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)pyrimidine and 2-amino-5H-[1]-benzopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidine; (b) the diacetate of 3-methylidyne-chromone into 2-amino-5-hydroxy-5H-[1]benzopyrano[4,3-d]pyrimidine; and (c) the oxime of 3-formylchromone into 2-amino-5H-[1]benzopyrano-[4,3-d]pyrimidin-5-one. Thiourea, acetamidine and nitroguanidine can also generate pyrimidines of the same type with 3-formylchromone, the diacetate of 3-methylidynechromone or 3-(1,3-dioxolan)chromone.     

Synthèse spécifique de pyrimidines. Formation conccurentielle de pyrimidines et de triazépines

Nucleophilic displacement of ethyl cyanoacetic ester on compounds 1 or 2 with hydrazines yielded only pyrimidines 3, 4 or 11 . Triethyl orthoformate (or triethyl orthoacetate) reacting with o-aminohydrazides produced a mixture of pyrimidines 3 or 11 and the triazepine 10 .     

Synthèse de nouveaux types de dérivés C-glycosyliques à partir de sucres acétyléniques ou de leurs équivalents synthétiques partiels

Synthesis of Novel Types of C-Glycosyl-derivatives from Acetylenic Sugars or Partial Synthetic Equivalents thereof The concept of synthetic equivalent is not unequivocal and, for example, α-fluoroenamines may behave in some cases as synthetic equivalents of ynamines and, in other situations, quite differently. Some uses of these α-fluoroenamines, ‘partial synthetic equivalents’ of ynamines, for the synthesis of C-glycosyl derivatives of coumarins, chromones, quinolines, quinolones, thietenes and isoxazoles are described. We also report the preparation of a series of mono- and diglycosylthiophenes by reacting HS^? with mono- and diglycosylbutadiynes. Acetylenic sugar derivatives have also been used for the synthesis of a diglycosylazaphosphorine and a spirooxolenone.

The fast-atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectra of a series of netropsin derivatives and analogues were examined in positive-ion and when necessary negative-ion modes. Behaviour of these derivatives was related to that of oligopeptides. Some compounds protected by t-butoxycarbonyl groups were also investigated using this technique and showed characteristic fragmentations.     

Stockage de l’hydrogène dans les nanotubes de carbone à paroi unique : nouvelle méthode de préparation par excitation laser

A new mode for hydrogen adsorption and storage in single-wall carbon nanotubes is used, on the basis of laser excitation. Remember that this method has been useful to obtain, in the case of the fullerene C₆₀, many complex C₆₀-atoms or C₆₀-molecules, where atoms or molecular particles are trapped inside the C₆₀-molecules. We think this method might be important to store many hydrogen molecules inside carbon nanotubes.
