The reduction products of 2-phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)-2-propanol

A number of chemical modifications of 2-phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl) - 2 - propanol are described. Dehydration, alkylation and hydrogenation, concomitant and independent, gave a variety of novel compounds. Independent syntheses produced the related compounds X and XVI which were subjected to some of the same reactions. Structural assignments (spectral) were corroborated by the synthesis of common reaction products.

Conformational analysis of methyl 2-methyl-2-(1-naphthyl)propionate

(S)-2-Methoxy-2-(1-naphthyl)propionic acid (MαNP acid 1) is used for enantioseparation of many secondary alcohols and for determining the stereogenic centers. In the liquid state, based on the ¹H NMR anisotropy effect and reported results, it was shown that the MαNP ester preferred a coplanar relation between the methyl and naphthyl groups and a synperiplanar relation between the Cα-OMe and CO groups. In the case of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-phenanthrenol, which is a secondary alcohol, the stereogenic center was determined by X-ray analysis. It was shown that MαNP ester adopted similar arrangements in the solid state. However, it was presumed that the strong repulsion between oxygen atoms may be disadvantageous in the solid state. Therefore, we carried out conformational analysis using the simplest MαNP methyl ester to clarify this unique relationship. From detailed results based on the energy surface determined using the RHF/STO-3G basis set, the synperiplanar positional relation was the most stable, and the calculated results agreed with many reported experimental results. At the same time, all conformational isomers of the MαNP methyl ester were used to clarify the internal conversion pathways.     

Synthesis of 2-phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)naphthvalene by photoinduced reversible valence isomerization of 2-phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)naphthalene

2-Phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)naphthvalene 3a was synthesized by the photoinduced reversible valence isomerization of 2-phenyl-1,3-di(4-pyridyl)naphthalene 2a. Then, 3a was converted into 3-phenyl-1,2-di(4-pyridyl)naphthalene 4a and 2a simultaneously. The t_1/2 of 3a in DMSO-d₆ at 90 °C was 2 h, while that at 110 °C was approximately 10 min.     

Electron impact mass spectrometry of 2-(2-pyridyl)-2,3-dihydroxy-5-phenyl-4-pentene

The mass spectrometric behaviour of 2-(2-pyridyl)-2,3-dihydroxy-5-phenyl-4-pentene has been studied with the aid of B/E, B²/E linked scans, exact mass measurements, collisionally activated dissociation mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectra, and labelling experiments. The primary loss of water is proved to involve both hydroxylic hydrogens, thus suggesting the formation of an epoxidic radical ion and the presence of extensive skeletal rearrangements.     

Conformational preferences of the aldol adducts of oxadiazinones. H NMR spectroscopy and computational studies of N4-methyl and N4-isopropyloxadiazinones

The conformational properties of the aldol adducts of some N₄-isopropyl-oxadiazinones have been investigated by ¹H NMR spectroscopy and computational studies. An earlier study of the syn-aldol adducts of N₄-methyl-oxadiazinone 2 led to the conclusion that the solution and solid state conformation of these compounds involve syn-parallel arrangement of the C₂- and N₃-carbonyls of the oxadiazinones. However, the synthesis and asymmetric aldol reactions of an N₃-hydrocinnamoyl-N₄-isopropyl-oxadiazinone 4 has yielded aldol adducts 5a-e in which the orientation of the C₂- and N₃-carbonyls are most likely in the anti-parallel arrangement. These aldol adducts have been studied by ¹H NMR spectroscopy and the shielding aspect observed clearly suggests the presence of the anti-parallel arrangement. The installment of a N₄-d₆-isopropyl group further confirmed this assertion. Computational studies support the conclusion that solution state conformation of the N₄-methyl and N₄-isopropyl-oxadiazinones involves anti-parallel carbonyls in contrast to the solid state evidence of the X-ray crystallographic data of oxadiazinone 2.

Insight into the origin of the thermosensitivity of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate].

We investigate the effects of pH and temperature on the conformational changes of poly[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDEM) chains at the air/water interface by using Langmuir balance and sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy. At pH 4, the tertiary amine groups are fully charged and the PDEM chains are so hydrophilic that they completely enter into the water phase and do not exhibit thermosensitivity. At pH 7, these groups are only partially charged, and the accompanying hydration/dehydration--followed by repartitioning into the water and air phases--gives rise to a marked thermosensitivty. Finally, at pH 10, the tertiary amine groups become uncharged and thus preferentially stay in the hydrophobic air phase, devoid of associated water molecules, which results in the surface-pressure change (DeltaPi) being nearly independent of the temperature. Our Langmuir-balance experiments, coupled with surface-sensitive spectroscopy, demonstrate that: 1) the thermosensitivity of the PDEM chains relates to the hydration/dehydration of the tertiary amine groups, 2) the phase transition of thermosensitive polymers is most likely initiated by the dehydration of the chains, and 3) the phase transition of thermosensitive polymers at the air/water interface is markedly different from that in aqueous solution because of the redistribution of the macromolecular segments induced by the asymmetric forces at the air/water interface.     

Thermodynamic and voltammetric studies of salicylaldehyde-4-(2-pyridyl)-3-thiosemicarbazone

Summary UV spectra, dc polarograms, cyclic voltammetry and coulometry measurements of salicylaldehyde-4-(2-pyridyl)-3-thiosemicarbazone (H₂ SPT) were recorded inBritton-Robinson buffer solutions ofpH 2–12. The dissociation constants of H₂ SPT evaluated spectrophotometrically and potentiometrically in a 5% (v/v)DMF-water mixture are concordant. The dc-polarograms in solutions ofpH<8.5 exhibit a single 4-electron diffusion-controlled polarographic wave, whereas in solutions ofpH>8.5 two waves are observed. The cyclic voltammograms give a single cathodic peak in acidic and neutral solutions, whereas two cathodic peaks can be identified in alkaline ones. An electrode mechanism is proposed and discussed. The effect of temperature on the dissociation constants and the polarographic data was also investigated; the corresponding thermodynamic parameters were derived and are discussed.

Synthesis and thermal reaction of 2-perfluoropropyl or (2-pyridyl)-5-phenyl-6-[4-(4-ethynylphenoxy) phenyl] -as-triazine

4-(4-Ethynylphenoxy) benzil was separately reacted with two amidrazones to provide acetylene-containing phenyl-as-triazine products. Each product consisted of two isomers which were separated by high pressure liquid chromatography and analyzed by mass spectroscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry was employed to study the thermal reaction of the acetylene-containing phenyl-as-triazine products. The principal component from the thermally induced reaction of the acetylene-containing phenyl-as-triazine was identified by mass spectroscopy as a dimer.

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.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of four silver(I) complexes based on 2-(4-pyridyl)benzimidazole

Four new silver(I) complexes constructed with 2-(4-pyridyl)benzimidazole, namely, [Ag(PyBIm) · H₂O] · NO₃ (1), [Ag(PyBIm) · H₂O] · ClO₄ (2), [Ag₂(PyBIm)₂] · (SiF₆) · 2H₂O (3) and [Ag(PyBIm) · (HBDC)] (4) (PyBIm = 2-(4-pyridyl)benzimidazole, BDC = 1,3-benzenedicarboxylate) have been synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography. All the silver(I) atoms in complexes 1–4 are bridged by the different PyBIm ligands via N_Py and N_BIm into one-dimensional “zigzag” chains. The anions do not coordinate to the silver(I) atoms and only act as counter ions in complexes 1–3. Due to the anions, different hydrogen bonding systems are found in those three compounds, resulting in the different crystal packing. Through hydrogen bonding interactions, the structures of complexes 1–3 display a double layer, a three-dimensional framework and a novel double chain, respectively. In complex 4, the HBDC⁻ anions act not only as a counter ion but also as bridging ligands, which lead the “zigzag” [Ag₂(PyBIm)₂]_∞ chain into a two-dimensional undulating sheet. The sheets are connected through hydrogen-bonding as well as π–π interactions into a three-dimensional framework. The thermal stabilities of the four complexes and anion exchange properties of complexes 2 and 3 were also studied.

Synthesis and antiinflammatory activity of the sulfoxides of 4-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl] - 3,4- dihydro- 2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-3-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzothiazine

Oxidation of 4-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3,4-dihydro-2-(1-hydroxyethyl)-3-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzothiazine, hydrochloride (I) with hydrogen peroxide yielded a mixture of two sulfoxides (II). Since this mixture exhibited antiinflammatory activity, the two components (Isomers A and B) were prepared in purified form by oxidation of I with N-chlorosuccinimide and hydrogen peroxide, respectively. Isomer A was more potent than Isomer B in the carrageenin-induced edema test.     

Substituents effect on the spectral studies on rutheninum(III) complexes of 5(-4'-derivatives phenyldiazo)-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone

A novel series of Ru(III) complexes with 5(-4'-derivatives phenyldiazo)-3-phenyl-2-thioxo-4-thiazolidinone (HLn) have been prepared. The ligands and structural composition of complexes were confirmed and characterized by various physico-chemical techniques. The spectral data were utilized to compute the important ligand field parameters B, beta and Dq. The effect of Hamett's constant on the ligand field parameters is also discussed. The spectral and magnetic results commensurate an octahedral environment around the Ru(III) ion. The B-values suggest a strong covalency in the metal-ligand sigma-bond and the Dq-values indicate a medium-strong ligand-field. IR spectra show that the ligand is neutral bidentate forming thereby a six-membered chelating ring and concomitant formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond. The ligands are present in associated form in solution via intermolecular hydrogen bond and act as neutral bidentate coordinated to ruthenium(III).
