Réactions d'addition-élmination à partir d'hétérocycles germaniés du type . III. Cas des diéthyl-2,2-germa-2-oxazolidines-1,3 (R = et; X = O; Y = NH,NMe)

Addition-elimination reactions from germanium heterocycles . III. 2,2-Diethyl-2-germa-1,-3-oxazolidines (R = Et; X = O; Y = NH, NMe) . The reactions of 2,2-diethyl-2-germa-1,3-oxazolidines with heterocumulenes (PhNCO, PhNCS, CS₂, CO₂, CH₂?C?O) and carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) are studied. Generally, monoinsertion derivatives are formed by addition of one molecule of the unsaturated compound accross the Ge? N bond. This bond is always the most reactive center of the molecule. In the case of the carbonyl compounds used, diinsertion may occur in a second step by a further addition across a Ge? O bond. Generally, this latter reaction is reversible. By thermal eliminat on of (Et₂GeO)_n or (Et₂GeS)₃ the monoaddition derivatives yield the corresponding oxazolidines and thiooxazolidines. The mechanisms of these reactions are discussed.     

Réactions d'addition-élimination à partir d'hétérocycles germaniés du type I. Cas des dioxolannes germaniés

Addition-elimination reactions from germanium heterocycles I. Germadioxolanes (X?Y?O) The reactivity of 2-germa-1,3-dioxolanes is studied with unsaturated compounds such as carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) or heterocumulenes (PhNCO, PhNCS). The formation of mono- and di-insertion derivatives is observed. The structure of these adducts is established and their decomposition process, at atmospheric pressure or at high pressure, is precised. The mechanism of these addition-elimination reactions is established from 4,5-disubstitued germadioxolanes. The reaction takes place under steric control. The consecutive elimination reaction proceeds by a mechanism of intramolecular nucleophilic substitution.     

Synthesis and transformations of metallacycles 44. Cycloalumination of methylenecyclobutane terpene derivatives with Et3Al catalyzed by Cp<Subscript>2</Subscript>ZrCl<Subscript>2</Subscript>

Cycloalumination of methylenecyclobutane terpene derivatives (d(+)-camphor, (+)-camphene, β-pinene, and l(–)-menthol) with Et₃Al catalyzed by Cp₂ZrCl₂ produced novel spirofused organoaluminum compounds in high yields. The synthesized compounds were in situ transformed into the corresponding spiro tetrahydroselenophenes and spiro phospholanes.     

Substitution électrophile aromatique dans l'anhydride sulfureux liquide. Etude cinétique de la réaction de bromation d'anisoles monosubstitués. Transmission des effets électroniques et caractéristiques de l'état de transition

Reactivity-structure correlations for anisole and eleven of its substituted derivatives established from bromination rate constants in liquid SO₂, unlike observations in water, show the reaction to be highly sensitive to substituent effects, (ρ = ?7.1; ρ = ?10.51). This result is ascribed to the solvation of the methoxy group which decreases the conjugation of para-substituted (ρ = ?9.70) compared to that of ortho-substituted derivatives (ρ = ?8.86). The highly solvated transition state lies far from reactants on the reaction coordinate and the positive charge developed in this state is nearly unity.     

Silaheterocyklen. I Reaktionen von H2CCHSiCl3 mit LiBut

Silaheterocycles. I. Reactions of H₂C?CHSiCl₃ with LiBu^t The reactions of H₂C?CHSiCl₃ ( 3 ) with LiBu^t in n-pentane are studied under various conditions (stoichiometry, concentration, temperature). They yield complex product-mixtures which are analysed by GC/MS and GC/IR techniques. The reaction pathways are determined by several factors: (a) The number of Cl atoms and the polarity of the Si-Cl bond, (b) the nucleophilicity of and (c) the participation of the ylidic form in the ground-state of 3 . Under mild conditions the addition of LiBu^t to the vinyl group mainly leads to the ã-lithio adduct Cl₃SiCH(Li)CH₂Bu^t, which, in competition to substitution, undergoes different following reactions: (a) 1,2-LiCl elimination to silaethenes, (b) 2,3-LiH elimination to trans-silyl/butylethenes and (c) intermolecular Si-C-coupling with the formation of chains of high molecular weights. The primary compound Cl₂Si?CHCH₂Bu^t undergoes self-dimerization or reacts with butylated Si?C species to 1,3-disilacyclobutanes. Furthermore ethene derivatives R¹R²R³SiCH?CHBu^t are produced by the addition of LiBu^t to the SiC double bond and 2,3-LiH elimination. The product pattern suggests the participation of silaethenes BuCl_(2-n)Si?CHCH₂Bu^t (n = 0–2) in the reaction course.     

Synthese und Eigenschaften der 1,3-Benzazaphosphole

Synthesis and Properties of the 1,3-Benzazaphospholes 1H-1,3-Benzazaphospholes (R = H, CH₃, C₆H₅, N(CH₃)₂) are synthesized not only rom o-aminophenylphosphines and different cyclisation compounds such as R? C(OR)?NH · HCl, R? C(O)Cl, R? COOR′, R? C(OCH₃)₂NR′₂, or Cl₂C?N(CH₃)₂Cl but also from secondary o-aminophenylphosphines PRH? C₆H₄? NH₂ (R = C₆H₅, C₂H₅) and CH₃? C(OR)?NH · HCl under elimination of ether or from 1,3-benzazaphospholines after oxidation or thermal treatment. Whereas the 1,3-benzazaphospholes don't react with acetyl chloride or methyl iodide the N-acetyl- and P-methyl-1,3-benzazaphospholes are formed starting with the ambident anion. Further reactions of the 1,3-benzazaphospholes and the nmr data of the compounds prepared are discussed.      

Regiochemistry of N‐substitution of some 4(5)‐substituted imidazoles under solvent‐free conditions

Imidazole‐4(5)‐carboxaldehyde and 4(5)‐cyanoimidazole were N‐benzylated and N‐methylated using benzyl chloride and methyl iodide on zinc oxide (ZnO), alumina, and KF/alumina under basic conditions without solvent. Triethylamine (Et₃N) or potassium carbonate was added as base in the reactions on ZnO and alumina. Imidazole‐4(5)‐carboxaldehyde was also benzylated on silica and carbon nanotubes. The effect of bases and solids on the product distribution of 1,4‐ and 1,5‐substituted compounds was investigated. In some cases, the product ratios were different for imidazole‐4(5)‐carboxaldehyde and 4(5)‐cyanoimidazole. In the reactions on KF/alumina the 1,4‐product was favored for both compounds. The combination of Et₃N and ZnO favored the 1,5‐product, however for the nitrile effect was not so pronounced. When N‐benzylation and methylation of the aldehyde were performed in the presence of catalytic amount of zinc chloride with Et₃N as base, the product distributions were the same as in the reactions on ZnO. Nitrile gave different product ratios on ZnO and in the presence of ZnCl₂. In addition, a mixture of N‐benzylimidazole and 1,3‐dibenzylimidazolium was produced when imidazole was benzylated on KF/alumina. Only the latter product was afforded when two equivalents of benzyl chloride were used.     

Étude des Paramètres de Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire et de la Stéréochimie de Thiono-2 R-2 Dithiaphosphorinanes-1,3,2

The ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P n.m.r. spectra of eleven 2-R-2-thiono-1,3,2-dithiaphosphorinanes with various R groups attached to the phosphorus atom have been recorded and analysed. In the compounds where R=Cl, OMe or N, the molecule adopts a chair conformation with the R group axially oriented. When the molecule adopts a chair conformation with equatorially oriented R. In the case of the derivatives with R=phenyl, Me, N(Me)₂ or NHt-Bu, a chair–chair conformational equilibrium was observed. The hindered rotation about the P? N bond was also examined in the derivative with      

Silaethene. III. Versuche zur Darstellung und spektroskopischen Charakterisierung von H2SiCH2, D2SiCH2 und Me(H)SiCH2

Silaethenes. III. Preparation and Spectroscopic Characterization of H₂Si?CH₂, D₂Si?CH₂, and Me(H)Si?CH₂ H₂Si?CH₂ and D₂Si?CH₂ are formed together with ethene and propene by gas phase pyrolysis at low pressure (10^?2–10^?3 mbar) from the corresponding mono- or 1,3-disilacyclobutanes in good yield and are characterized by i.r. and mass spectroscopic methods. Formation of propene can be explained by following reactions of the silaethene intermediate using a “head-to-head” mechanism. H₂Si?CH₂ can be stored at ?196°C for several months and can be transferred by trap-to-trap distillation in a vacuum system. Similar results are obtained for .     

Réactivité des silyl- et germylphosphines vis-à-vis de divers composés à insaturation CN: imines, α-diimines,N-acylimines et cétènimines

Silylphosphines R₃SiPR′₂ add on the C?N group of aldimines yielding phosphinylated silylamines of the structure . Hydrolysis of these adducts leads to the corresponding substituted aminomethyl-phosphines. In the reaction between α-diimines and silylphosphines or silyldiphosphines R₂Si(PR′₂)₂ the acyclic 1/1 and ½ addition compounds have been characterized. The adduct 1/1 obtained by the action of diethyl-hydrodimethylsilyl-phosphine on di-tert-butylimino-ethane undergoes in the presence of Wilkinson's catalyst, (Ph₃P)₃RhCl, an intramolecular Si-H/C?N cyclisation leading to a phosphinylated siladiazolidine. Silylphosphines add to N-acylimines in 1,4 position to form phosphinylated siloxyimines. The methanolysis of the latter derivatives is an novel method of preparation of phosphinylated amides. Silyl- and germylphosphines react on the C?N groupement of cetimines. The hydrolysis of the adducts (N-metallated enamines) leads to C-phosphinylated imines.     

5,7-Dichloro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-thione and -2-Selone: Synthesis, Crystal Structure, Solvatochromism, and Reactions with Nucleophiles

We have obtained for the first time the halo derivatives of a novel heterocyclic system, 1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-thione and -2-selone, by reaction of 5,7-dioxo(4H,6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-thione and -2-selone with POCl₃. The crystal structure of thione confirms that we had obtained the desired compound. The electronic absorption spectra reveal an interesting solvatochromism connected with the appearance of low-intensity n transitions from selenium and sulfur atoms in the visible region of the spectrum. The chlorine atoms in the studied compounds have significant mobility in reactions with nucleophiles (amines, thiourea, azidione), which ensures that new derivatives of 1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-selone are obtained, and specifically 7-N,N-dialkylamino, 7-N-alkyl-N-arylamino derivatives and 7-isothiuronium salts. The 2-selones obtained can be used in synthesis of new tetrathiafulvalenes.     

Selenium‐Containing Heterocycles from Isoselenocyanates: Synthesis of 1,3‐Selenazinane and 1,3‐Selenazinanone Derivatives

The reaction of the intermediate ketene N,Se‐hemiacetal 3 , prepared from cyanomethylene derivatives 1 by treatment with Et₃N and aryl isoselenocyanates 2 , with bis‐electrophiles 6, 7, 9 , and 11 in DMF affords tetrahydro‐1H‐1,3‐selenazine (=1,3‐selenazinane) derivatives 8, 10 , and 12 in good yield (Scheme 2 and Tables 1–3). Chemical and spectroscopic evidence for the structures of the new compounds are described. The structures of 8d and 12e are established by X‐ray crystallography (Figs. 1 and 2).     

Neuartige massenspektrometrische Zerfallsreaktionen bei α,ω-disubstituierten Alkanen. 15. Mitteilung über das massenspektrometrische verhalten von stickstoffverbindungen [1]

The mass spectral behaviour of α,ω-disubstituted alkanes and, especially, that of different N-substituted α,ω-diaminoalkanes has been investigated. It was found that the two amino groups which are separated by CH₂-groups can fragment only to a small extent indepently from each other. Yet those fragmentation reactions are predominant in which both functional groups participate. The main reactions of this type are:

• 1 Loss of the N-substituent (R) from the molecular ion, leading to the [M⁺—R]-ions.
• 2 Loss of NH₃, primary or secondary amines from the [M⁺—R]-ion in the case of monodi-, tri- and tetra-substituted diamino compounds respectively.
• 3 α-Cleavage to the non charged nitrogen atom by forming the ions
• 4 S_Ni-type fragmentation.

The mechanisms of these fragmentation patterns were deduced by using D-labelled derivatives, from metastabile peaks and high resolution mass spectrometry. These reactions seem to be typical for disubstituted alkanes.

1,3‐Dipolar cycloadditions of 9‐diazofluorenes and diphenyldiazomethane to 2‐acyl‐2H‐1,2,3‐diazaphospholes

A series of 2‐acyl‐2H‐1,2,3‐diazaphospholes 3 underwent ready 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition reactions with 9‐diazofluorenes as the 1,3‐dipole, yielding the respective bicyclic phosphiranes 5 or trimers 7 depending on the reaction conditions employed. The reaction is believed to proceed via the formation of the [3+2]‐cycloaddition adducts followed by elimination of nitrogen from the cyclic azo moiety. In the case of 3c , the phosphatetraazabicyclooctadiene compound 6 has been isolated with no loss of nitrogen. Likewise, the dipolar cycloaddition reaction of diphenyldiazomethane with the >C?P‐ moiety as the 1,3‐dipolarophile gave phosphadiazabicyclohexenes 8 in 32–68% yields.     

Cycloadditionsreaktionen von Trifluormethylisocyanid an Diphosphene. Synthese und Struktur des neuartigen 2-Phosphiniden-1, 3-azaphospholidins

Cycloaddition Reactions of Trifluoromethyl Isocyanide with Diphosphenes. Synthesis and Structure of the new 2-Phosphinidene-1,3-azaphospholidine Derivative [2 + 1] Cycloaddition reactions of trifluoromethyl isocyanide 1 and methylisocyanide 2 with the diphosphene R? P?P? R 3a ( a R ? C[Si(CH₃)₃]₃) yield the three membered heterocyclic diphosphirane imines 4 and 5 , respectively. Whereas the trifluoromethyl substituted compound 4 is thermally very stable, the methylsubstitued derivative 5 slowly looses methyl isocyanide reforming the diphosphene 3a . In the reaction of 1 with R? P?P? R 3b [ b R = 2,4,6-(t-Bu)₃C₆H₂] no evidence for the formation of a three membered ring compound could be obtained. The five membered heterocycle 3-(2,4,6-Tri-t-butylphenyl)-2-[2,4,6-tri-t-butylphenyl)-phosphinidene]-1-trifluoromethyl-4, 5-bis(trifluoromethylimin)-1,3-azaphospholidine 6 was isolated as the only product together with unreacted 3b .

Unexpected Silaazetidine Formation in the Thermolysis of thf‐Supported Silanimine Et2Si=N–SitBu3·thf

The silyl amide Et₂SiCl‐NLi‐SitBu₃ can be cleanly prepared from precursor silylamine Et₂SiCl‐NH‐SitBu₃ and Li[nBu]. The CF₃SO₃SiMe₃ induced LiCl elimination of Et₂SiCl‐NLi‐SitBu₃ in thf afforded a 2‐silaazetidine derivative by [2+2] cycloaddition of Et₂Si=N–SitBu₃ with Et₂Si(OCH=CH₂)–NH–SitBu₃. X‐ray quality crystals of this 2‐silaazetidine derivative (triclinic, space group P$\bar{1}$ ) were grown from benzene at room temperature. The starting material for this approach, Et₂SiCl–NH–SitBu₃, is water‐sensitive. Hydrolysis of Et₂SiCl‐NH‐SitBu₃ gave [tBu₃SiNH₃]Cl along with (Et₂SiO)_n oligomers. The hydro chloride [tBu₃SiNH₃]Cl could be isolated and was characterized by X‐ray crystallography (trigonal, space group P$\bar{3}$ ).     

A convenient one-pot synthesis of 2-(trifluoromethyl)-3,4,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-chromen-5(6H)-one derivatives and their further transformations

The trifluoromethyl containing heterocycles, 2-hydroxy-4-aryl-3-(thien-2-oyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-3,4,7,8-tetrahydro-2H-chromen-5(6H)-one derivatives 4, were synthesized via a one-pot three-component reaction of aldehyde 1 with 1,3-cyclohexanedione 2 and 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione 3 in the presence of a catalytic amount of Et₃N. The effect of bases and solvents on the reaction efficiency and yield was briefly investigated. Treatment of 4 with an excess amount of NH₄OAc in ethanol afforded 2-trifluoromethyl-1H-quinolin-5-one derivatives 5. Refluxing of 4 with TsOH in CHCl₃ gave the corresponding dehydrated products 8.
