Large second-order optical nonlinearities of <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>-triazine derivatives: View from micro molecules to macro crystals

Three s-triazine derivatives have been synthesized and their structures been determined. These are Compound I: 2,4-dimethyl-6-(p-N,N-dimethylaminostyryl)-s-triazine (abbreviated to NMe-1), Compound II: 2,4-dimethyl-6-(p-N,N-diethylaminostyryl)-s-triazine (to NEt-1), and Compound III: 2-methyl-4,6-bis(p-N,N-dimethylaminostyryl)-s-triazine (NMe-2). NMe-1 and NEt-1 molecules belong to the D-π -A type with a one-dimensional charge-transfer character. NMe-1 crystallizes to centrosymmetric space group, while NEt-1 to non-centrosymmetric polar Cc space group with all of the molecular charge-transfer axes taking the same orientation. Under the irradiation of 1064 nm fundamental laser, NEt-1 powder crystals radiate a 2-order harmonic light with an intensity 46.8 times that of urea. The ∧ A typed NMe-2 molecule, which has a two-dimensional charge-transfer character, crystallizes to polar P2₁ space group. Its powder crystals exhibit a 2-order harmonic intensity 46.2 times that of urea. The quantum chemical calculations and tensor analyses have been carried out to reveal the dependence of the macro 2-order nonlinear optical (NLO) efficiency on the micro 2-order NLO coefficients (β) and on the crystalline packing styles.     

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.     

The photo cycloaddition of alkenes to s-triazolo[4,3-b] and [2,3-b]pyridazines

s-Triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (I) reacted with cyclohexene under the influence of ultraviolet light to yield 4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-9-methylene-6H-s-triazolo[1,5-a]indole (IV) and 9-cyanomethyl-4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-6H-s-triazolo[1,5-a]indole (V). These products were formed by the addition of the alkene to the 1,8 positions of I with a concurrent cleavage of the N₄? N₅ bond. Similar additions were observed with cyclopentene and 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene. The isomeric s-triazolo[2,3-b]pyridazine (III) reacted with cyclohexene to form an isomer of IV, 4a,5,7,8,8a,9-hexahydro-9-methylene-6H-s-triazolo[4,3-a]indole (XV) and two [2 + 2] cycloadducts (XVI and XVII).

Azatryptophane homologues, 4-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyridinyl-3)- 9a-9f and 4-(imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidinyl-3)-4-oxohomoalanine derivatives 9g-91 , were prepared from N,N-dimethyl-N′-(pyridinyl-2)- 6a-6f and N,N-dimethyl-N-(pyriniidinyl-2)formamidines 6g-6i , and (S)-N-trifluoroacetyl-5-bromo-4-oxonorvaline methyl ester ( 2 ) and its (R,S)-isomer.     

Nitrogen bridgehead compounds. Part 80 unusual reaction of ethyl 9-bromo-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetr ahydro-4h-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates and N-Methylaniline

The acid-catalysed intramolecular nucleophilic addition of the phenyl ring to the C(9a) = N(1) double bond of ethyl 9-(N-methyl-N-phenyl)-4-oxotetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates, formed in the reactions of ethyl 9-bromo-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylates and N-methylaniline, gave the first examples of a new tetracyclic pyrimido[1′,2′:1,2]pyrido[3,2-b]indole ring system ( 7 ). X-ray diffraction analysis of 7a revealed that the annelation of the pyrimidine and piperidine rings is transoid, while that of the piperidine and pyrroline rings is cis, the piperidine ring adopts an unusual ⁶T₈ twisted boat conformation, while the pyrroline ring has a ⁹T_8a conformation.

3,5‐Bis{3‐[4‐(dimethylamino)phenyl]prop‐2‐enylidene}‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone and 3,5‐bis[3‐(4‐methoxyphenyl)prop‐2‐enylidene]‐1‐methyl‐4‐piperidone: potential biophotonic materials

The structures of the title compounds, C₂₈H₃₃N₃O, (I), and C₂₆H₂₇NO₃, (II), together with their two‐photon absorption properties and fluorescence activities are reported. Molecules of (II) reside on crystallographic mirror planes containing the piperidone C=O group and N‐methyl H atoms. Because of the conjugation between the donor and acceptor parts, the central heterocycle in both (I) and (II) exhibits a flattened boat conformation, with deviations of the N atom and the opposite C atom from the planar fragment. The dihedral angles between the coplanar heterocyclic atoms and terminal C₆ rings are less than 20° in both (I) and (II). In (I), the N‐methyl group of the ring occupies an equatorial position, but in (II) it is positioned in an axial site. In the crystal structure of (I), weak intermolecular C—H...π(arene) and C—H...O steric contacts link the molecules along the a axis. In the crystal structure of (II), molecules form stacks along the b axis.     

Structural Relationships Afforded by the Coordination of 2,2′-Bipyridine to the (Iminodiacetato)Copper(II) Chelate: Synthesis,Structure and Properties of (2,2′-Bipyridine) (N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)Iminodiacetato) Copper(II)Tetrahydrate

Abstract

The stoichiometric reaction of copper(II) hydroxycarbonate, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid [H₂heida?HOCH₂CH₂N(CH₂CO₂H)₂)] and 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) in water yields crystalline (2,2′-bipyridine)(N-(2-hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetato)copper(II) tetrahydrate, [Cu(heida)-(bipy)] · 4H₂O (compound I). This was studied by TG analysis (with FT-IR study of evolved gases), IR, electronic and ESR spectra, magnetic susceptibility data and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The compound crystallises in the triclinic system, space group P1, a = 7.011(2), b = 12.586(3), c = 13.052(3) Å, α = 62.14(1), β = 80.51(2), γ = 77.09(2)°, Z = 2, final R ₁ = 0.051 for 3900 independent reflections. The Cu(II) atom exhibits an asymmetric, elongated, octahedral coordination (type 4+1 + 1), and bipy acts as an N,N-bidentate ligand supplying two among the four closest donor atoms of the metal (Cu-N bond lengths of 1.994(2) and 2.053(2) Å); heida plays an N,O,O′,O″-tetradentate chelating role (bond lengths Cu?N = 2.075(2), Cu-O(carboxyl) = 1.958(2), Cu-O′(carboxyl) = 2.337(2) and Cu-O″(hydroxyl) = 2.459(2) Å). The effective bidentate chelation of bipy imposes fac-chelation to the iminodiace-tate moiety of heida in I, as previously reported in mixed-ligand complexes having a 1:1:2 Cu(II)/IDA/N(heterocyclic) or a 1/1/(1 + 1) Cu/IDA/(N-heterocyclic + N-aliphatic) donor ratio. The tetradentate role of heida in I reveals its noticeable conformational flexibility. The crystal features a hydrogen bond network forming supra-molecular chains extending along the a axis. These are linked by two symmetry-related hydrogen bonds of the type O(hydroxyl)-H…O′(carboxyl) between two adjacent complex units (symmetry code i=-x, -y+1, -z+1), related to each other by an inversion centre.     

Synthesis and characterization of the [Cu(Cin2bda)2]ClO4 and [Cu(Ncin2bda)2]ClO4 complexes: Crystal structure of [Cu(Ncin2bda)2]ClO4

Two copper(I) complexes [Cu(Cin₂bda)₂]ClO₄ (I) and [Cu(Ncin₂bda)₂]ClO₄ (II) have been prepared by the reaction of the ligands N²,N²′-bis(3-phenylallylidene)biphenyl-2,2′-diamine (L¹) and N²,N²′-bis[3-(2-nitrophenyl)allylidene]biphenyl-2,2′-diamine (L²) and copper(I) salt. These compounds were characterized by CHN analyses, ¹H NMR, IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The C=N stretching frequency in the copper(I) complexes shows a shift to a lower frequency relative to the free ligand due to the coordination of the nitrogen atoms. The crystal and molecular structure of II was determined by X-ray single-crystal crystallography. The coordination polyhedron about the copper(I) center in the complex is best described as a distorted tetrahedron. A quasireversible redox behavior was observed for complexes I and II. The article is published in the original.     

A chain of π‐stacked molecules in 4‐(2‐chlorophenyl)pyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoxaline and a hydrogen‐bonded sheet in (4RS)‐4‐(1,3‐1,3‐benzodioxol‐6‐yl)‐4,5‐dihydropyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoxaline

In the molecule of 4‐(2‐chlorophenyl)pyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoxaline, C₁₇H₁₁ClN₂, (I), the bond lengths are consistent with electron delocalization in the two outer rings of the fused tricyclic system, with a localized double bond in the central ring. The molecules of (I) are linked into chains by a π–π stacking interaction. In (4RS)‐4‐(1,3‐benzodioxol‐6‐yl)‐4,5‐dihydropyrrolo[1,2‐a]quinoxaline, C₁₈H₁₄N₂O₂, (II), the central ring of the fused tricyclic system adopts a conformation intermediate between screw‐boat and half‐chair forms. A combination of N—H...O and C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the molecules of (II) into a sheet. Comparisons are made with related compounds.     

A new trans-dioxorhenium(V) complex with 4-aminopyridine: synthesis,structure, electrochemical aspects,DFT, and TD-DFT calculations

The reaction of 1?:?4.4?M proportion of cis-[ReO₂I(PPh₃)₂] and 4-aminopyridine (ampy) in acetone–water gives trans-[ReO₂(ampy)₄]I·2H₂O (1a) in 85% yield. 1a has been characterized by C, H, and N microanalyses, FT-IR, UV–vis, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, and molar conductivity. The X-ray crystal structure of 1a reveals an octahedral trans dioxorhenium(V) complex with a “N₄O₂” coordination for rhenium. 1a has an orthorhombic space group C2221 with a?=?17.576(4), b?=?19.370(4), c?=?15.730(4) Å, V?=?5355(2) ų, and Z?=?8. Geometry optimization of the trans-O,O complex, 1a and its cis-O,O analog, 1b performed at the level of density functional theory reveal that 1a is more stable than 1b by 25?kcal M^–1 in the gas phase. The electronic spectrum of 1a was also analyzed at the level of time-dependent density functional theory. Excitation of 1a in methanol at 450?nm leads to a fluorescent emission at 505?nm with a quantum yield (Ф) of 0.04. Electrochemical studies of 1a in acetonitrile show a quasi-reversible Re(V) to Re(VI) oxidation at 0.618?V versus Ag/AgCl. This redox potential matches with the calculated redox potential of 0.621?V versus Ag/AgCl.     

Synthesis of 3- and 4-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-s-triazolo[2,3-a] pyrimid-7-one,isomers of inosine containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom

The first synthesis of a purine nucleoside analog containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom is here reported. The direct glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl derivative of s-triazolo[2,3-a] pyrimid-7-one has been shown to give 3-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-s-triazolo[2,3-a]pyrimid-7-one (V) and 4-(β-D-ribof'uranosyl)-s-lriazolo[2,3-α]pyrimid-7-one (VII). The nueleoside V may he considered a close analog of inosine in which the nitrogen N₁ and C₅ of inosine have been interchanged. Bro-minalion of the tri-O-acelyl derivative IV gave, after deblocking, 6-bromo-3-(β-D-ribofurnaosyl)-s-triazolo[2,3-a] pyrimid-7-one (IX). Structural assignments of the nucleosides were made on the basis of comparison of the ultraviolet absorption spectral characteristics with 3-methyl-s-triazolo-[2,3-a]pyrimid-7-one (XI) and 4-methyl-s-lriazolo[2,3-a Jpyrimid-7-one (XII) prepared by a standard procedure from 7-methoxy-s-triazolo(2,3-a] pyrimidine (X).     

Synthesis,structure and spectroscopic properties of CuL(MeOH), H2L = (E)-N 1-(2-((2-aminocyclohexydiimino)(phenyl)methyl)-4-chlorophenyl)-N 2-(2-benzyl-4-chlorophenyl)oxalamide

A new kind of copper(II) complex, CuL(MeOH) (H₂L?=?(E)-N ¹-(2-((2-aminocyclohexydiimino)(phenyl)methyl)-4-chlorophenyl)-N ²-(2-benzyl-4-chlorophenyl)oxalamide) has been synthesized and its structure determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. Copper(II) ion is five-coordinate, bonding to four nitrogen atoms from H₂L and one oxygen atom from MeOH. Hydrogen bonds in the crystal result in the formation of a one-dimensional structure. EPR spectra are discussed. Computer simulation gave g_||?=?2.200, g_⊥?=?2.002. On the basis of the synthesis and the crystal structure, the mechanism of the metal template reaction involved in the formation of the complex was verified.     

Indole- and carbazole-substituted pyridinium iodide salts: a rare case of conformational isomerism in crystals

A series of indole- and carbazole-substituted pyridinium iodide salts has been synthesized and characterized. X-ray analysis revealed that the iodide salt of the indole-substituted cation (E)-4-(1H-indol-3-yl­vinyl)-N-methyl­pyridinium (IMPE⁺), C₁₆H₁₅N₂⁺·I⁻, (I), has two polymorphic modifications, (Ia) and (Ib), and a hemihydrate structure, C₁₆H₁₅N₂⁺·I⁻·0.5H₂O, (II). Until now, only one crystal modi­fication has been identified for the (E)-4-(9-ethyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl­vinyl)-N-methyl­pyridinium (ECMPE⁺) iodide salt, C₂₂H₂₁N₂⁺·I⁻, (III). Crystals of (Ia) and (Ib) comprise stacks of antiparallel cations with iodide anions located in the channels between the stacks. Due to the presence of the water mol­ecules, the packing in (II) is quite different to that found in (Ia) and (Ib), and positional disorder involving a statistical superposition of two rotamers of IMPE⁺, with different orientations of the indole fragment, was found. Crystals of (III) contain two independent ECMPE⁺ rotamers with different orientations of their carbazole substituents. The cations are packed in stacks, with the iodide anions located in the channels between the stacks. In (III), the iodide was found to be disordered over two sites, with occupancies of 0.83 and 0.17.     

Nitrogen bridgehead compounds. Part 50 . Vilsmeier-haack acylation of 6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones,Part 5

6-Methyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones 1-5 were subjected to Vilsmeier-Haack acylation with complexes of phosphoryl chloride and different amides. Acylation at position 9 of the pyridopyrim-idines was successful with the iminium salt formed in situ from N-formylpiperidine, N-methylformanilide or N,N-diethylbenzamide, but unsuccessful with the iminium salt formed from N,N-diethylacetamide or N,N-di-ethylisobutyramide, respectively. The iminium salt formed from formanilide, N-methylpyrrolidinone or formamide reacted only with those tetrahydropyridopyrimidinones which contain a strongly electronegative substituent (e.g. CN or CO₂Et) in position 3. With the latter derivatives, the 9-phenylaminomethylene group could be introduced using N,N-diphenylformamide or in a “one-pot” procedure with aniline and triethyl orthoformate. Ethanolysis of 9-N-methyl-N-phenylaminomethylene derivatives 15 and 19 afforded 9-ethoxy-methylene compounds 26 and 27 in the presence of hydrogen chloride. The structures of the 9-substituted 6-methyltetrahydropyridopyrimidin-4-ones 14-25 were elucidated by means of uv, ¹H and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy. 9-Piperidinomethylene 14 , 9-(N-methyl-N-phenylaminomethylene 15-19 and 9-(N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinylidene) 21 derivatives exist as E geometric isomers. 9-Phenylaminomethylene-6-methyl-4-oxo-6,7,8,9-tetra-hydro-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carbonitrile 20 displays a solvent-dependent E-Z isomerism. The bis-compound 25 contains both E and Z geometric exo C ? CH double bonds. 9-Benzoyl derivatives 23 and 24 exist predominantly as the 1,6,7,8-tetrahydropyridopyrimidin-4-one tautomer.     

The elimination of metal(I) hydride in the mass spectra of some metal(II) compounds

Metal(I) hydrides are eliminated as neutral species in the electron impact ionization mass spectra of copper(II) and palladium(II) complexes of ethylene-N,N′-3-benzoylprop-2-en-2-amine. Deuterium labelling shows that the hydrogen atom of the metal(I) hydride is derived predominantly from the ethylene bridge both for ion source reactions and for metastable ion transitions. Evidence supporting the proposed rationalization for elimination of metal(I) hydride is provided by the observation of an analogous reaction in the mass spectrum of (ethylene-N,N′-salicylaldiminato)copper(II). The mass spectrum of ethylene-d₄-N,N′-3-benzoylprop-2-en-2-amine shows an unusual rearrangement to give [C₇H₅D₂]⁺ ions involving a formal phenyl-to-methylene transfer.

As an asymmetric organic molecular crystal, p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde (DAB) exhibits peculiar optical property. It was first grown by solution technique adopting slow evaporation method at room temperature using CCl₄ as growth medium. The solubility of DAB increases with temperature. Good quality transparent crystals of p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde were carefully collected and subjected various characterization studies such as UV, FTIR, ¹H and ¹³CNMR spectral studies and thermal (TG-DTG) studies to determine the purity and application oriented properties of the grown crystals.     

Syntheses,crystal structures,DFT calculation and solid-state spectroscopic properties of new zincate(II) complexes with N-(4-substituted phenyl)-N&#x27;-(4-nitrophenyl)-oxamate

The electronic effects electron donating and withdrawing groups R on the properties of N-(4-R-phenyl)-N'-(4-nitrophenyl)oxamito zincate(II) complexes was investigated featuring R = Me (a), H (b), F (c), Cl (d) and Br (e). The N-(4-R-phenyl)-N'-(4-nitrophenyl)oxamide ligands 2 were synthesized by reacting ethyl 4-nitrooxanilate with the respective 4-substituted anilines. Subsequent treatment with [nBu₄N]OH and [Zn(OAc)₂(H₂O)₂] gave the respective zincate complexes [nBu₄N]₂[Zn(N-(4-nitrophenyl)-N'-(4-substituted phenyl)oxamides)₂] (3). Spectroscopic methods were used to describe compounds 2a–e and 3a–e. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of 3a–c in the solid state. The tetrahedral coordination sphere of the zinc (II) ion features four amide nitrogen donor atoms based on two ethanediamide ligands. The UV–Vis spectra of Complexes 3a–e display a characteristic LLCT (π → π *) band, which was confirmed by TD-DFT calculations. DFT calculations show that the Zn(II) orbitals do not contribute to the HOMO or LUMO, with the latter being primarily found on the two 4-nitrophenyl rings for compounds 3a ? e, while the HOMO-1 and HOMO are located on the 4-substituted phenyl rings. Notably, HOMO and LUMO energies and gabs do not differ significantly. Transitions from HOMO to LUMO + 1 are the most important for all ligands. The luminescence properties of solid compounds 3a ? e were also investigated at 298 K. Solid state photoluminescence studies reveal that these complexes emit strong yellow-orange luminescence at 450–600 nm with a maximum at about ～ 500 nm in the cyan region. Furthermore, the thermal stabilities of compounds 3a ? e have been investigated.     

Two methyl 3‐(1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)octahydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1‐carboxylates form different hydrogen‐bonded sheets

In the molecules of both methyl (1RS,3SR,3aRS,6aSR)‐1‐methyl‐3‐(3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)‐4,6‐dioxo‐5‐phenyloctahydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1‐carboxylate, C₂₅H₂₄N₄O₄, (I), and methyl (1RS,3SR,3aRS,6aSR)‐5‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1‐methyl‐3‐(3‐methyl‐1‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐4‐yl)‐4,6‐dioxooctahydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1‐carboxylate, C₂₅H₂₃ClN₄O₄, (II), the two rings of the pyrrolopyrrole fragment are both nonplanar, with conformations close to half‐chair forms. The overall conformations of the molecules of (I) and (II) are very similar, apart from the orientation of the ester function. The molecules of (I) are linked into sheets by a combination of an N—H...π(pyrrole) hydrogen bond and three independent C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The molecules of (II) are also linked into sheets, which are generated by a combination of an N—H...N hydrogen bond and two independent C—H...O hydrogen bonds, weakly augmented by a C—H...π(arene) hydrogen bond.     

Synthesis of some substituted pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones and 1,8-naphthyridines

The substituted 4H-pyrido[1, 2-a]pyrimidin-4-ones (I) were obtained by the condensation of substituted 2-aminopyridines with δ-ketocarboxylic esters in PPA. Some of the derivatives I were transformed into the corresponding 1, 8-naphthyridines II and III.
