Reactions of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde

The Knoevenagel condensations of 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carbaldehyde with seven compounds containing an active methyl or methylene group have been studied. The compounds used were: methyl 2-cyanoacetate, malononitrile, 2-furylacetonitrile, acetophenone, 2-thioxo-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one (rhodanine), 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione (dimedone), and methyl 2-azidoacetate. The effect of microwave irradiation on the condensation reactions was studied and compared with “’classical”’ conditions. Thermolysis of methyl 2-azido-3-{5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoate afforded methyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate. (2E)-3-{ 5-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-furyl}propenoic acid was converted to the corresponding azide, which was cyclized on heating into 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)]-4,5-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-one. The latter after successive action of POCl₃ and NH₂NH₂-Pd/C gave 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]furo[3,2-c]pyridine.

Spectrophotometric Studies on the Proton Transfer from the Protonated DNA to 5,10,15,20-Tetrakis[4-(trimethyammonio)-phenyl]porphine

Abstract

The interaction of nucleic acids with 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis[4-trimethy-ammonio)phenyl]porpine (TAPP) were investigated on the basis of a mechanistic discussion, and a spectrophotometric method for DNAs was accordingly proposed in the present paper. Depending on the acidity of the solution, TAPP can interact with nucleic acids, producing different absorption features. When the pH of the solution is higher than 6.39, TAPP can interact with both DNAs and RNA, giving a new absorption band at 420.3 nm. If the pH is lower than 6.39, however, the interactions with DNAs (but not RNA) can give an absorption band centered at 436.3 nm. It was found that the absorption band at 436.3 nm originates from the proton transfer from the protonated double-stranded structure of DNA to TAPP. At optimal conditions, the absorbance at 436.3 nm is in proportion to the concentration of the DNAs. Calibration curves were linear in the range of 0±3.0 μg.ml^?1 for calf thymus and 0±3.2 μg.ml^?1 for fish sperm DNA. No interference of 4-fold of RNA was found for the determination of DNAs. The limits of determination (3[sgrave]) were 34.6 ng.ml^?1 for calf thymus DNA and 33.2 ng.ml^?1 for fish sperm DNA, respectively. Four synthetic samples were determined with satisfaction.

Synthesis and characterization of new cardo polyimides prepared from 5,5-Bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-4,7-methanohexahydroindane

A new cardo diamine monomer, 5,5-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]-4,7-methanohexahydroindane (II), was prepared in two steps with high yield. The monomer was reacted with six different aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydrides in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) to obtain the corresponding cardo polyimides via the poly(amic acid) precursors and thermal or chemical imidization. All the poly(amic acid)s could be cast from their DMAc solutions and thermally converted into transparent, flexible, and tough polyimide films which were further characterized by x-ray and mechanical analysis. All of the polymers were amorphous and the polyimide films had a tensile strength range of 89–123 MPa, an elongation at break range of 6–10%, and a tensile modulus range of 1.9–2.5 GPa. Polymers V_c, V_e, and V_f exhibited good solubility in a variety of solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), DMAc, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), pyridine, γ-butyrolactone, and even in tetrahydrofuran and chloroform. These polyimides showed glass-transition temperatures between 274 and 299°C and decomposition temperatures at 10% mass loss temperatures ranging from 490 to 521°C and 499 to 532°C in nitrogen and air atmospheres, respectively. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Preparation and properties of aromatic polyamides and polyimides derived from 3,3-bis [4-(4-aminophenoxy) phenyl] phthalide

3,3-Bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]phthalide ( II ) was used as a monomer with various aromatic dicarboxylic acids and dianhydrides to synthesize polyamides and polyimides, respectively. The diamine II was derived by a nucleophilic substitution of phenolphthalein with p-chloronitrobenzene in the presence of K₂CO₃. Polyamides IV _a-g having inherent viscosities of 0.77–2.46 dL/g were prepared by the direct polycondensation of diamine II with diacids III _a-g using triphenyl phosphite and pyridine as condensing agents. The polyamides were readily soluble in a variety of solvents such as N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP) and afforded transparent and flexible films from the polymer solutions. These polymers had glass transition temperatures (T_gs) in the 227–307°C range and 10% weight loss temperatures occurred up to 450°C. Polyimides VI _a-e based on diamine II and various aromatic dianhydrides V _a-e were synthesized by the two-stage procedure that included ring-opening, followed by thermal or chemical conversion to polyimides. Most of the polyimides obtained by chemical cyclodehydration procedure were found to soluble in DMF, NMP, o-chlorophenol, and m-cresol. The T_gs of these polyimides were in the 260–328°C range and showed almost no weight loss up to 500°C under air and nitrogen atmosphere. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Organosoluble and light-colored fluorinated polyimides based on 9,9-bis[4-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)phenyl]fluorene and aromatic dianhydrides

A novel fluorinated diamine monomer, 9,9-bis[4-(4-amino-2-trifluoromethylphenoxy)phenyl]fluorene (II) was prepared via the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 2-chloro-5-nitrobenzotrifluoride with 9,9-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)fluorene in the presence of potassium carbonate, followed by catalytic reduction with hydrazine and Pd/C. Polyimides V were synthesized from diamine II and various aromatic dianhydrides III _a-f via thermal imidization. These polymers had inherent viscosities ranging from 0.84 to 1.03 dL/g and were soluble in a variety of organic solvents such as NMP, DMAc, DMF, and DMSO, and some could even be dissolved in less polar solvents such as m-cresol, pyridine, and dioxane. Polyimide films V _a-f had tensile strengths of 85–105 MPa, elongations to break of 7–9%, and initial moduli of 2.13–2.42 GPa. The glass transition temperature of these polymers were in the range of 277–331 °C, their 10% weight loss temperatures were in the range of 539–594 °C in nitrogen and above 544 °C in air, and their char yields at 800 °C in nitrogen ranged between 55–65 wt%. Compared with nonfluorinated polyimides VI, V showed better solubility and lower color intensity. Low dielectric constants (2.68–2.85 at 1 MHz) and low moisture absorptions (0.12–0.24 wt%) were also observed. In particular, V _c-f afforded lightly-colored films, which had cutoff wavelengths lower than 385 nm and b* values ranging from 6 to 22.

Poly[2-(N,N-Dimethylamino) Ethyl Methacrylate] /Poly(Styrene-Co-Methacrylic Acid) Interpolymer Complexes

Summary: Poly[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDMAEMA), copolymers of different compositions of styrene with 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (SDMAEMA) or methacrylic acid (SMA) were synthesized by free radical polymerization and characterized by several techniques. Different ternary mixtures containing proton-acceptors PDMAEMA or SDMAEMA, proton-donor copolymers SMA and a solvent (butan-2-one or THF) were prepared. The present study, that investigated several factors that affected the phase behaviors of the ternary mixtures above, confirmed that, indeed depending on the nature of solvent, densities of interacting species, amounts of efficient specific interactions that occurred between the two copolymers, interpolymer complexes of different structures were elaborated. The complexation phenomena, observed with these different systems were analyzed in solution by viscometry that confirmed these effects in monitoring the formation of interpolymer complexes. The specific interactions that occurred between pairs of polymers of each system above were qualitatively evidenced by FTIR spectroscopy from the appearance of new bands or their new redistribution. The glass transition temperature Tg of the obtained complexes of different structures determined by DSC varied differently with the weight fraction of one of the copolymers. These various Tg-compositions were analyzed using the Kwei and Brostow et al. approach recently developed. Thermal analysis of some of the elaborated complexes, examined by thermogravimetry, confirmed their improved thermal stability.

9,9-Bis[4-(p-aminophenoxy)phenyl]fluorene ( II ) was used as a monomer with various aromatic dicarboxylic acids and tetracarboxylic dianhydrides to synthesize polyamides and polyimides, respectively. The diamine II was derived by a nucleophilic substitution of 9,9-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)fluorene with p-chloronitrobenzene in the presence of K₂CO₃ and then hydro-reduced. Polyamides IV _a-g having inherent viscosities of 0.73–1.39 dL/g were prepared by the direct polycondensation of the diamine II with various aromatic diacids using triphenyl phosphite and pyridine as condensing agents. All the aromatic polyamides were amorphous and readily soluble in various polar solvents such as N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. Transparent and flexible films of these polymers could be cast from the DMAc solutions. These aromatic polyamides had glass transition temperatures in the range of 283–309°C and 10% weight loss occurred up to 460°C. The polyimides were synthesized from diamine II and various aromatic dianhydrides via the two-stage procedure that included ring-opening poly-addition in DMAc to give poly(amic acid)s, followed by thermal or chemical conversion to polyimides. The poly(amic acid)s had inherent viscosities of 0.62–1.78 dL/g, depending on the dianhydrides. Most of the aromatic polyimides obtained by chemical cyclization were found to be soluble in NMP. These polyimides showed almost no weight loss up to 500°C in air or nitrogen atmosphere. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Preparation and characterization of colorless alternate poly(amide-imide)s based on trimellitic anhydride and 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone

Alternate poly(amide-imide) [P(A-alt-I)] was synthesized from two aromatic diamines and trimellitic anhydride (TMA). When the diamine was 2,2-bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone (BAPS), the resulted P(A-alt-I) was found to be of light color. Specifically, when BAPS was located between two amide groups in the P(A-alt-I) chain, the P(A-alt-I) was almost colorless. A series of P(A-alt-I)s (Series III) containing BAPS was synthesized through direct polycondensation of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid prepared from various aromatic diamines and TMA, as well as BAPS. Polymers of Series III were much lighter in color than those of the isomeric series (BAPS was located between two imide group). The series of P(A-alt-I)s III had inherent viscosities ranging 0.69–1.35 dL/g and good solubility in various solvents. The tensile strengths, elongations to break, and initial moduli of the films were 72–107 MPa, 7–12% and 1.93–2.39 GPa, respectively, and most of the films had no yielding. Polymers of Series III had glass transition temperatures 210–272°C and 10% weight loss temperatures in nitrogen 518–545°C, indicating excellent thermal stability. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
