Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 8‐alkylcarbamato‐16H‐dinaphtho [2,1‐d:1′,2′‐g] 1,3,2‐dioxaphosphocin 8‐oxides

A new family of phosphorus heterocycles, namely 8‐alkylcarbamato‐16H‐dinaphtho‐[2,1‐d: 1′,2′‐g] 1,3,2‐dioxaphosphocin 8‐oxides ( 4a–j ) has been obtained by reaction of bis(2‐hydroxy‐1‐naphthyl)methane ( 3 ) with a series of dichlorophosphosphinyl carbamates ( 2a–j ) in dry toluene in the presence of triethylamine at 40–45°C. The intermediates 2a–j were obtained by the addition of alcohols/thiol to isocyanatophosphonic dichloride ( 1 ) at −10°C in dry toluene. The structures of the title compounds were confirmed by the elemental analyses, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR spectra. The FAB mass spectrum of one member of the family is discussed. These compounds were found to possess good antimicrobial activity. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 12:16–20, 2001     

Quantum‐chemical,IR, NMR,and X‐ray diffraction studies on 2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1‐methyl‐ 1H‐benzo[d]imidazole

The title molecule, 2‐(4‐chlorophenyl)‐1‐methyl‐1H‐benzo[d]imidazole (C₁₄H₁₁ClN₂), was prepared and characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The molecular geometry, vibrational frequencies, and gauge including atomic orbital (GIAO) ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shift values of the title compound in the ground state have been calculated by using the Hartree‐Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT/B3LYP) method with 6‐31G(d) basis sets, and compared with the experimental data. The calculated results show that the optimized geometries can well reproduce the crystal structural parameters, and the theoretical vibrational frequencies and GIAO ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts show good agreement with experimental values. The energetic behavior of the title compound in solvent media has been examined using B3LYP method with the 6‐31G(d) basis set by applying the Onsager and the polarizable continuum model (PCM). Besides, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP), frontier molecular orbitals (FMO) analysis, and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of the title compound were investigated by theoretical calculations. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Thermal properties and flame retardancy of novel epoxy based on phosphorus‐modified Schiff‐base

Through addition reaction of Schiff‐base terephthalylidene‐bis‐(p‐aminophenol) ( DP‐1 ) and diethyl phosphite (DEP), a novel phosphorus‐modified epoxy, 4,4'‐diglycidyl‐(terephthalylidene‐bis‐(p‐aminophenol))diphosphonate ether ( EP‐2 ), was obtained. An modification reaction between EP‐2 and DP‐1 resulted in an epoxy compound, EP‐3 , possessing both phosphonate groups and C?N imine groups. The structure of EP‐2 was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), elemental analysis (EA), ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR analyses. The thermal properties of phosphorus‐modified epoxies cured with 4,4'‐diaminodiphenylmethane (MDA) and 4,4'‐diaminodiphenyl ether (DDE) were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The activation energies of dynamic thermal degradation (E_d) were calculated using Kissinger and Ozawa's methods. The thermal degradation mechanism was characterized using thermogravimetric analysis/infrared spectrometry (TG‐IR). In addition, the flame retardancy of phosphorus‐modified epoxy thermosets was evaluated using limiting oxygen index (LOI) and UL‐94 vertical test methods. Via an ingenious design, phosphonate groups were successfully introduced into the backbone of the epoxies; the flame retardancy of phosphorus‐modified epoxy thermosets was distinctly improved. Due to incorporation of C?N imine group, the phosphorus‐modified epoxy thermosets exhibited high thermal stabilities; the values of glass‐transition temperatures (T_gs) were about 201–210°C, the values of E_d were about 220–490 kJ/mol and char yields at 700°C were 49–53% in nitrogen and 45–50% in air. These results showed an improvement in the thermal properties of phosphorus‐modified epoxy by the incorporation of C?N imine groups. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Preparation,thermal properties,and flame retardance of epoxy–silica hybrid resins

A novel epoxy system was developed through the in situ curing of bisphenol A type epoxy and 4,4′‐diaminodiphenylmethane with the sol–gel reaction of a phosphorus‐containing trimethoxysilane (DOPO–GPTMS), which was prepared from the reaction of 9,10‐dihydro‐9‐oxa‐10‐phosphaphenanthrene‐10‐oxide (DOPO) with 3‐glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS). The preparation of DOPO–GPTMS was confirmed with Fourier transform infrared, ¹H and ³¹P NMR, and elemental analysis. The resulting organic–inorganic hybrid epoxy resins exhibited a high glass‐transition temperature (167 °C), good thermal stability over 320 °C, and a high limited oxygen index of 28.5. The synergism of phosphorus and silicon on flame retardance was observed. Moreover, the kinetics of the thermal oxidative degradation of the hybrid epoxy resins were studied. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 41: 2354–2367, 2003     

Monomers for Adhesive Polymers, 6

Summary: 1,3‐Bis(methacrylamido)propane‐2‐yl dihydrogen phosphate ( 1 ) was synthesised by phosphorylation of 1,3‐bis(methacrylamido)‐2‐hydroxypropane ( 2 ) with phosphorus oxychloride in tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the presence of triethylamine (TEA). The structure of the new monomer 1 was characterised by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and ³¹P NMR spectroscopies, elemental analysis and mass spectrometry. The monomer dissolves well in water, ethanol or aqueous THF and shows an improved hydrolytic stability compared to the corresponding methacrylate‐based dihydrogen phosphates. 1 was homopolymerised in ethanol with 2,2′‐azoisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator at 55–75 °C under the formation of an insoluble, cross‐linked product. Aqueous solutions of 1 are strongly acidic and enable to etch enamel and dentin. Nevertheless, 1 did not show any cytotoxic effect. Furthermore, the adhesive properties of 1 were measured.

Determination of 31P,31P coupling constants in cyclotriphosphazenes and their influence on 1H and 13C NMR spectra of phosphorus substituents

¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of symmetrically substituted cyclotriphosphazenes exhibit second‐order effects. The influence of the ³¹P,³¹P coupling constants between ring phosphorus atoms on these effects was studied. Some values of this coupling constant between phosphorus bearing identical substituents were measured using ¹³C satellites of the ³¹P signals or by introduction of a chiral substituent on the third phosphorus atom.

Synthesis and Characterization of Alkyl and Aryl‐(4‐methyl‐6‐nitro‐quinolin‐2‐yl)amines: X‐Ray Structures of Ethyl and Cyclohexyl‐(4‐methyl‐6‐nitro‐quinolin‐2‐yl)amine

Abstract

We have synthesized and characterized a series of alkyl and aryl‐(4‐methyl‐6‐nitro‐quinolin‐2‐yl)amines through a high‐yield, three‐step procedure starting from 4‐methylquinolin‐2‐ol. Nitration using concentrated nitric/sulfuric acids, followed by chlorination in phosphorus oxychloride, yielded 2‐chloro‐4‐methyl‐6‐nitro‐quinoline. All of the intermediates and aminated products have been characterized by multinuclear (¹H and ¹³C) NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and, in the case of the two title compounds (ethyl and cyclohexyl‐(4‐methyl‐6‐nitro‐quinolin‐2‐yl)amine), a single crystal X‐ray structure was obtained to verify the nature of the new materials.     

Synthesis of Dinaphtho-dioxaphosphepin-4-oxides, Epoxides and Bisphosphonates

A few new seven-membered phosphorus heterocyclic compounds and bis-phosphonates (5a—5g, 5f’, 5g’, 9 and 10) were prepared by the reaction of 4-bromo dioxaphosphepin (2) with various Grignard reagents followed by their oxidation with H2O2. All the compounds were thoroughly characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H, 13C, 31P NMR and mass spectral data. Their antimicrobial activity was evaluated and some of them possess significant activity.     

Alkyl‐Tethered Bis‐Phosphoryl Compounds with two 1,3,2‐Benzodiazaphosphorinone Units; Oxidation,Complexation, and X‐Ray Structure Analysis of Selected Compounds

The reaction of the bis‐chlorophosphines 1 a – 1 d with bis(2‐chloroethyl)amine hydrochloride in the presence of triethylamine and with various trimethylsilylamines led to a new class of bis‐phosphorus ligands 2 a – 2 c and 3 a – 3 g . ³¹P‐NMR studies suggested that the bis‐phosphorus ligands undergo rotation reactions about the alkyl bridge in polar solvents. Compounds 2 a – 2 c showed initially only one sharp singlet each in their ³¹P‐NMR spectra. After a few days at room temperature, two signals were observed. Similar results were observed for 3 a – 3 g . In the solid state, the two phosphorus atoms in 2 c are not equivalent, as was confirmed by the observation of two signals in the solid state ³¹P‐NMR spectrum. Oxidation reactions of 2 a – 2 c by the hydrogen peroxide‐urea 1 : 1 adduct (NH₂)₂C(:O) · H₂O₂ led to the formation of the corresponding phosphoryl compounds 4 a – 4 c . Reaction of 2 a and 3 a with Pt[COD]Cl₂ (COD = 1.5‐Cyclooctadiene) furnished the complexes 5 and 6 . The NMR spectra suggested that the two chlorine atoms are in cis position. X‐ray structure analyses were conducted for 2 a , which exhibits twofold symmetry; 2 c , which is linked into dimers by hydrogen bonds C–H…O; and 6 , confirming the cis configuration.     

Preparation,Reactions, and Stereochemistry of 4-Tert-Butyl-1-Chlorophosphorinane 1-Sulfide and Derivatives

Abstract

Nucleophilic substitution at tetracoordinated phosphorus centers has been extensively investigated.¹ Transesterification of acyclic phosphinates proceeds with inversion of configuration,² whereas four-membered phosphinates react with retention.³ In previous work⁴ we suggested that transesterification in six-membered phosphinates occurs via an S_N2 mechanism. The title compound was synthesized as a model structure to study the stereochemical and mechanistic aspects of nucleophlic substitution at phosphorus in a six-membered ring. A mixture of diastereomers was produced and separated by column chromatography. Both the mixture and separate isomers were used for an investigation of substitution with methanol, methoxide ions, and phenoxide ions; the reactions proceeded with inversion. Transesterification reactions of the resulting thiophosphinates were studied and found to proceed with inversion. Reactions of these with phenyllithium, benzyllithium, lithium phenylacetylide, and the corresponding organomagnesium halides were also carried out. The stereochemical assignments for the title compound (cis and trans) and two derivatives have been firmly anchored by X-ray studies;⁵ assignments for others are tentative and based on spectroscopic measurements, including ¹H, ¹³C, and ³¹P NMR data.     

NMR investigation of chlorophosphorylation products of N‐vinylazoles

The structure of novel phosphorus‐containing N‐vinylazoles prepared by action of phosphorus pentachloride has been studied by multinuclear ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ³¹P and two‐dimensional (2D) NMR spectroscopy. N‐vinyl‐substituted 1,2‐diazoles and 1,2,3‐triazoles have undergone phosphorylation, exclusively, on double bond. N‐vinylazoles‐based hexa‐coordinated phosphorus compounds have been synthesized for the first time. ³¹P NMR spectroscopy provides the most convenient and unambiguous method for the investigation of E—Z‐isomeric structures of phosphorylated enamines.

Phosphorus Centers of Different Hybridization in Phosphaalkene‐Substituted Phospholes

Phosphole‐substituted phosphaalkenes (PPAs) of the general formula Mes*P?C(CH₃)?(C₄H₂P(Ph))?R 5 a – c (Mes*=2,4,6‐tBu₃Ph; R=2‐pyridyl ( a ), 2‐thienyl ( b ), phenyl ( c )) have been prepared from octa‐1,7‐diyne‐substituted phosphaalkenes by utilizing the Fagan–Nugent route. The presence of two differently hybridized phosphorus centers (σ²,λ³ and σ³,λ³) in 5 offers the possibility to selectively tune the HOMO–LUMO gap of the compounds by utilizing the different reactivity of the two phosphorus heteroatoms. Oxidation of 5 a – c by sulfur proceeds exclusively at the σ³,λ³‐phosphorus atom, thus giving rise to the corresponding thioxophospholes 6 a – c . Similarly, 5 a is selectively coordinated by AuCl at the σ³,λ³‐phosphorus atom. Subsequent second AuCl coordination at the σ²,λ³‐phosphorus heteroatom results in a dimetallic species that is characterized by a gold–gold interaction that provokes a change in π conjugation. Spectroscopic, electrochemical, and theoretical investigations show that the phosphaalkene and the phosphole both have a sizable impact on the electronic properties of the compounds. The presence of the phosphaalkene unit induces a decrease of the HOMO–LUMO gap relative to reference phosphole‐containing π systems that lack a P?C substituent.     

H(OEt2)2[P(1,2‐O2C6Cl4)3]: Synthesis,Characterization, and Application as a Single‐Component Initiator for the Carbocationic Polymerization of Olefins

The development of novel Brønsted acids featuring the hexacoordinate phosphorus(V) anion [TRISPHAT]^? {[ 1 ]^?=[P(1,2‐O₂C₆Cl₄)₃]^?} are reported. The title compound, H(OEt₂)₂[ 1 ], was synthesized from 1,2‐(HO)₂C₆Cl₄ (3 equiv) and PCl₅ in the presence of diethyl ether. This compound was fully characterized by ¹H, ³¹P and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, X‐ray crystallography and elemental microanalysis. Dissolution of H(OEt₂)₂[ 1 ] in acetonitrile results in the slow precipitation of crystalline H(OEt₂)(NCMe)[ 1 ], which was characterized by X‐ray diffraction; however, in CD₂Cl₂ solution the [TRISPHAT]^? anion protonated and ring‐opened. The weighable, solid H(OEt₂)₂ [ 1 ] was found to be a competent initiator for the polymerization of n‐butyl vinyl ether, α‐methylstyrene, styrene and isoprene at a variety of temperatures and monomer‐to‐initiator ratios. At low temperatures, polymers with M_n>10⁵ were obtained for n‐butyl vinyl ether and α‐methylstyrene whereas slightly lower molecular weights were obtained with styrene and isoprene (10⁴<M_n<10⁵). The poly(α‐methylstyrene) synthesized at ?78 °C is syndiotactic‐rich (ca. 87 % rr) whereas the polystyrene obtained at ?50 °C is atactic. The polyisoprene obtained possessed all possible modes of enchainment as well as branched and/or cyclic structures that are often observed in polyisoprene.     

Synthesis,Spectroscopy, X‐ray Crystallography,and DFT Computations of Nanosized Phosphazenes

Nanoparticles of nine phosphazenes with general formula 4‐CH₃C₆H₄S(O)₂N=PX₃ [X = Cl ( A ), NC₄H₈ ( 1 ), NC₆H₁₂ ( 2 ), NC₄H₈N–C(O)OC₂H₅ ( 3 ), NC₄H₈N–C(O)OC₆H₅ ( 4 ), NC₄H₈O ( 5 ), NHCH₂–C₄H₇O ( 6 ), N(CH₃)(C₆H₁₁) ( 7 ), NHCH₂–C₆H₅ ( 8 ), and 2‐NH‐NC₅H₄ ( 9 )] were synthesized using ultrasonic method and characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR, FT‐IR, fluorescence, as well as UV/Vis spectroscopy and additionally with XRD, FE‐SEM, N₂ sorption, and elemental analysis. The ³¹P NMR spectra of compounds 1 – 9 reveal the most up field shift δ(³¹P) for 9 at –11.45 ppm reflecting the most electron donation of 2‐aminopyridinyl rings through resonance to the phosphorus atom. The ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectra of 7 exhibit two sets of signals for the hydrogen and carbon atoms of its two isomers present in the solution state in 1:4 ratio. The FE‐SEM micrographs illustrate that the nanoparticles of compounds 1 – 9 have spherical morphology and a size of 27–42 nm. From the XRD patterns, the crystal sizes were estimated to about 24–86 nm. The highest bandgap was measured for 3 (3.81 eV) whereas the smallest was measured for 8 (3.50 eV). The structures of two polymorphs of compound 5 ( 5 , 5′ ) were determined by X‐ray crystallography at 120 K. Both of these polymorphs are triclinic with P1 space group but 5 has a doubled unit cell volume and two symmetrically independent molecules ( 5a and 5b ). In structures 5a and 5′ , the phosphorus and all endocyclic atoms of two morpholinyl rings display disorder, whereas the molecule 5b does not show disorder. The strong intermolecular O–H ··· O hydrogen bonds plus weak intermolecular C–H ··· O and C–H ··· N interactions create three‐dimensional polymers in the crystalline networks of 5 and 5′ . The DFT computations illustrate that molecule 5b is more stable than 5a by –1.1062 and –0.9779 kcal · mol^–1 at B3LYP and B3PW91 levels, respectively. The NBO calculations presented sp³d hybridization for phosphorus and sulfur atoms and sp², sp³ hybrids for the nitrogen and oxygen atoms.     

Heterocyclic analogs of xanthiones: 5,6‐fused 3‐methyl‐1‐phenylpyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H) thiones—synthesis and NMR (1H, 13C, 15N) data

Various [5,6]pyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H)‐thiones were synthesized in high yields by treatment of the corresponding [5,6]pyrano[2,3‐c]pyrazol‐4(1H)‐ones with Lawesson's reagent. Detailed NMR spectroscopic studies were undertaken of the title compounds. Complete and unambiguous assignment of chemical shifts (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N) and coupling constants (¹H,¹H; ¹³C,¹H) was achieved by the combined application of various one‐ and two‐dimensional (1D and 2D) NMR spectroscopic techniques. Unequivocal mapping of most ¹³C,¹H spin coupling constants is accomplished by 2D (δ, J) long‐range INEPT spectra with selective excitation. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A Simple and Efficient Procedure for Synthesis of Optically Active 1,2,4‐Triazolo‐[3,4‐b]‐1,3,4‐Thiadiazole Derivatives Containing l‐Amino Acid Moieties

Some new and optically active 1,2,4‐triazolo thiadiazoles bearing N‐phthaloyl‐l ‐amino acids were synthesized by reaction of 4‐amino‐5‐(3‐ or 4‐)pyridyl‐3‐mercapto‐(4H)‐1,2,4‐triazoles with N‐phthaloyl‐l ‐amino acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride. All the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and elemental analysis.     

Synthesis of Phosphanes Bearing 2‐Imino‐1,3‐thiazolidine Ligands – X‐Ray Analyses and NMR Spectroscopy

Pseudo‐ephedrine derived 2‐imino‐1,3‐thiazolidine 1 reacts with tris(diethylamino)phosphane by stepwise replacement of the diethylamino group to give the mono‐, bis‐ and tris(imino)phosphanes 2 , 3 and 4 , respectively, of which 4 could be isolated in pure state. The analogous reaction with diethylamino‐diphenylphosphane affords the imino‐diphenylphosphane 5 . The iminophosphanes react with sulfur or selenium to give the corresponding phosphorus(V) compounds. In contrast, the reaction of the iminophosphanes with oxygen is very slow; anhydrous trimethylamine N‐oxide reacts in the melt with the phosphanes to give the oxides 4(O) and 5(O) . The molecular structures of 4(O) (in mixture with 4 ), 4(Se) , 5(S) and 5(Se) were determined by X‐ray analysis. In all cases the ring‐sulfur and the phosphorus atoms are in cis‐positions at the C=N bonds. The analogous solution structures were determined by ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ³¹P and ⁷⁷Se NMR spectroscopy. In the case of the compounds 5 , 5(O) , 5(S) and 5(Se) the isotope‐induced chemical shifts ¹δ^14/15N(³¹P) were determined, using INEPT‐HEED experiments.     

Lewis Base Free Oxophosphonium Ions: Tunable,Trigonal‐Planar Lewis Acids

Oxophosphonium ions (R₂P=O)⁺ are fascinating chemical intermediates related to the well‐known acylium cations (RC=O)⁺, and comprise a tricoordinate phosphorus(V) center with a phosphorus–oxygen double bond. Here, we report the synthesis of two oxophosphonium ions stabilized by bulky imidazolin‐2‐imine and imidazolin‐2‐olefin substituents attached to phosphorus. The novel species were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, and the bonding situation was probed by DFT calculations. Determination of the acceptor number and the fluoride ion affinity revealed that the choice of the substituents has a strong influence on the electrophilicity of the phosphorus center. Additionally, the formation of Lewis base adducts with pyridine derivatives and the reactivity with isopropyl alcohol was explored.
