1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol and its derivatives. 2. Chlorination and bromination of 1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol. crystal structure of halogen derivatives of 1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol

The bromination of 1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol in 60% acetic acid gave 1,4-dibromo-1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol in satisfactory yield. The chlorination of 1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol under analogous conditions gave 1,4-dichloro-1,1,4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol as a crystal hydrate. Drying of this latter product in vacuum over phosphorus pentoxide gave 1,4-dichloro-1,1, 4,4-tetranitrobutane-2,3-diol in quantitative yield. The structures of these products were determined by x-ray diffraction structural analysis. The crystal chemical analysis and quantum chemical calculations established an increase in secondary oxygen-halogen interactions in the halodinitromethyl fragment with increasing atomic number of the halogen atom.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2372–2380, October, 1991.

Synthesis and structure of alkyl 2,3-dibromo-3-nitroacrylates

A synthetic approach to novel derivatives of dihalonitroethenes, methyl and ethyl 2,3-dibromo-3-nitroacrylates, was developed and their structures were investigated. X-ray single crystal analysis demonstrated that ethyl 2,3-dibromo-3-nitroacrylate had Z-configuration. The steric strain in this molecule is released mainly due to withdrawal of the ester group from the C=C double bond plane.

Selective C-3 lithiation of 2,3-dibromo- and 2,3-diiodo-1-methylindoles

Reaction of 2,3-dibromo-1-methylindole with tert-butyllithium at −78 °C followed by treatment with tropylium ion gave 2-bromo-3-cycloheptatrienyl-1-methylindole in a moderate yield, indicating that 2-bromo-3-lithio-1-methylindole would be involved as an intermediate instead of 3-bromo-2-lithio-1-methylindole. The structure of 2-bromo-3-cycloheptatrienyl-1-methylindole was unequivocally determined by a single X-ray analysis. 2,3-Diiodo-1-methylindole also gave a 3-lithio derivative exclusively.

Synthesis of 4,5-dichloro-3-cyanoisothiazole and its functional derivatives

By treating with phosphorus pentoxide the 4,5-dichloroisothiazole-3-carboxamide 4,5-dichloro-3-cyanoisothiazole was synthesized whose reactions with piperidine, phenyl-and benzylthiols occurred with replacement of the chlorine atom in the position 5 by the residue of the corresponding nucleophile. Reactions with sodium thiobytylate and also with sodium methylate in methanol led to the formation both of the products of chlorine substitution by BuS or MeO groups respectively and of addition products of methanol to the cyano group. The reaction of butanethiol with cyanoisothiazole in 2-propanol in the presence of sodium 2-propylate was more selective and resulted in the replacement of the chlorine atom in the position 5 by the residue of the butanethiol.     

Fully aromatic liquid crystalline homopolyesters and copolyesters of 1,1′-binaphthyl-4,4′-diol

A series of fully aromatic, thermotropic polyesters based on 1,1′-binaphthyl-4,4′-diol, BND, was prepared by the melt polycondensation method and characterized for their thermotropic behavior by a variety of experimental techniques. The homopolymer of BND with terephthalic acid formed a nematic melt at 353°C. In contrast, the polyester from BND and 2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid had a melting transition, T_m, above 400°C, so it was not possible with the equipment available to determine whether it formed a nematic melt. All of the copolymers of BND formed nematic melts at much lower T_m values than those of its respective homopolymers, as expected, because of the copolymerization effect of the added monomer. Moreover, all of the copolymers had higher glass transition temperatures, T_g, than those of other liquid crystalline polyesters and higher thermal stabilities. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Allylmetallation of benzoazaheterocycles with allylic derivatives of zinc. Synthesis of 1,4-ethano-2,3-dihydroisoquinolines and allylated heterocycles

Allylmetallation of isoquinolines, quinoline, and quinoxaline with allylic derivatives of zinc was examined for the first time. A convenient procedure was discovered and developed for the synthesis of 1,4-ethano-2,3-dihydroisoquinolines based on the reactions of isoquinolines with allylic derivatives of zinc. This multistage process involves double allylmetallation of the heterocyclic ring followed by cyclization through intramolecular carbometallation of the C=C bond. The structures of three key derivatives of 1,4-ethano-2,3-dihydroisoquinoline were established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The reactions of quinoxaline with allyl- and methallylzinc bromide proceeded stereospecifically to form trans-2,3-diallylated 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines. Heating of quinoline with methallylzinc bromide in THF afforded 4-methallylquinoline in nearly quantitative yield. The initially formed 1,4-metallation product underwent aromatization through elimination of HZnBr.
