Crystal structure of polyamides containing 1,3-cyclohexane rings

The effect of 1,3-cyclohexane rings in the chain backbone on the crystal structure of polyamides has been studied using polyamides (denoted 1,3-CBMA-n) obtained from 1,3-cyclohexane-bis(methylamine) (1,3-CBMA) and n-carbon dicarboxylic acids. The crystallinity of the 1,3-CBMA-n polymers changes greatly with variation in the value of n. This is attributed to hydrogen-bond changes associated with the relative length of the diacid moiety to the diamine moiety in the monomeric unit of each polymer. In 1,3-CBMA-6, the cis-1,3-cyclohexane rings are readily accommodated in the molecular chains to form crystals in a manner similar to the m-benzene rings in poly(m-xylylene adipamide) (MXD-6). The crystal lattice, however, is more expanded than in MXD-6 since the 1,3-cyclohexane rings is bulkier than the m-benzene ring. The crystal structure of the 1,3-CBMA-n polymers is essentially the same as that of MXD-6.     

On the syntheses of 1,3-disubstituted dithieno[3,4-b:3′,2′-d]pyridines via halogen-metal exchange of 1,3-dibromodithieno[3,4-b:3′,2′-d]pyridine

Halogen-metal exchange of 1,3-dibromodithieno[3,4-b:3′,2′-d]pyridine with butyllithium under different conditions has been studied. Upon reaction with iodine, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl carbonate, dimethyl disulfide and thiuram disulfide, the 1,3-diiodo-, 1,3-diacetyl-, 1,3-diformyl-, 1,3-dicarbomethoxy, 1,3-di(thiomethyl)- and 1,3-di(N,N-dimethyldithiocarbamoyl)dithieno[3,4-b:3′,2′-d]-pyridines, respectively, were obtained in varying yields. 3-Monosubstituted derivatives were obtained in some cases. The formation of 3,7-disubstituted derivatives was sometimes also observed.     

Relationships between chemical structures and solubility,diffusivity, and permselectivity of 1,3-butadiene and n-butane in 6FDA-based polyimides

The solubility, diffusivity, and permselectivity of 1,3-butadiene and n-butane in seven different polyimides synthesized from 2,2-bis (3,4-carboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA) were determined at 298 K. The influence of chemical structures on physical and gas permeation properties of 6FDA-based polyimides was studied. Solubility of 1,3-butadiene in 6FDA-based polyimides can be described by a dual-mode sorption model. 1,3-Butadiene-induced plasticization is considered to be associated with the increasing permeabilities of 1,3-butadiene and n-butane and the decreasing permselectivity of 1,3-butadiene vs. n-butane in the mixed gas system containing a high concentration of 1,3-butadiene. It was found that controlling the solubility of 1,3-butadiene in an unrelaxed volume in 6FDA-based polyimides is very important to maintain the high permselectivity of 1,3-butadiene vs. n-butane in the mixed gas system. Changing the  C(CF₃)₂ linkage to a  CH₂ ,  O linkage, removing methyl substituents at the ortho position of the imide linkage, and changing the p-phenylene linkage to an m-phenylene linkage in the main chains in some 6FDA-based polyimides are effective to decrease fractional free volume and restrict the solubility of 1,3-butadiene in the unrelaxed volume of a polymer matrix. The 6FDA-based polyimides restricting the solubility of 1,3-butadiene in an unrelaxed volume exhibit high separation performance in the 1,3-butadiene/n-butane mixed gas system compared with conventional glassy polymers and, therefore, are potentially useful membrane materials for the separation of 1,3-butadiene and n-butane in the petrochemical industry. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

N-(1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-yliden)amine aus 1,3-dipolaren Cycloadditionen von Aziden mit 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thionen

N-(1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-ylidene)amines via 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition of Azides and 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thiones Organic azides 5 and 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-thione ( 2 ) in toluene at 90° react to give the corresponding N-(1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-ylidene)amines (= 1,3-thiazol-5(4H)-imines) 6 in good yield (Table). A reaction mechanism for the formation of these scarcely investigated thiazole derivatives is formulated in Scheme 3: 1,3-Dipolar azide cycloaddition onto the C?S group of 2 leads to the 1:1 adduct C . Successive elimination of N₂ and S yields 6 , probably via an intermediate thiaziridine E .     

Electron-impact studies—XLVII: The mass spectra of 2-aryl-1,3-dithianes and -1,3-dithiolanes

The fragmentation patterns in the spectra of 2-aryl-1,3-dithianes and -1,3-dithiolanes have been elucidated by deuterium labelling studies. Ortho effects are observed in the spectra of 2(o-alkoxyphenyl)-1,3-dithianes. The molecular ions of the 1,3-dithianes eliminate S2H· and metastable kpeaks substantiate these eliminations. The hydrogen involved in this elimination randomises (C-4, 5 and 6) Prior to elimination in the spectrum of 2-phenyl-1,3-dithiane, but originates mainly from C-5 in that of the bis propane-1,3-dithioacetal of terephthaldehyde.

Cross-coupling of E,E-1,4-diiodobuta-1,3-diene with nucleophiles catalyzed by Pd or Ni complexes: a new route to functionalized dienes

E,E-1,4-Diiodobuta-1,3-diene can enter into cross-coupling reactions with carbon- or other element-centered nucleophiles in the presence of Pd or Ni complexes as catalysts. Convenient procedures were developed for the stereoselective synthesis of E,E-1,4-dialkenylbuta-1,3-dienes, dienyl-1,4-bisphosphonates, E,E-1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)buta-1,3-diene, E,E-1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene, and E,E-1,4-bis(thiophenyl)buta-1,3-diene.

Radikalische Cyclisierungen von Alkenyl-substituierten 4,5-Dihydro-1,3-thiazol-5-thiolen

Radical Cyclizations of Alkenyl-Substituted 4,5-Dihydro-1,3-thiazole-5-thiols Heating of 5-alkenyl- or 5-alkinyl-4,5-dihydro-1,3-thiazole-5-thiols of type 5 in the presence of a radical initiator gave dithiaspirobicycles in fair-to-excellent yield (Scheme 3). Under analogous conditions, the 4,5-dihydro-4-vinyl-1,3-thiazole-5-thiol 5d underwent a cyclization to give the annellated dithiabicycle 7 (Scheme 4). In this reaction, a minor product 8 was formed by an unknown reaction mechanism. The structure of 8 was established by X-ray crystallography. The starting 1,3-thiazole-5-thiols 5 have been synthesized by carbophilic alkylation of me C?S group of 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-thiones with Grignard-reagents or alkylcuprates. The thiazolethiones were obtained by the reaction of 3-amino-2H-azirines with thiobenzoic acid followed by sulfurization and cyclization. The 4-benzyl derivative 1b was thermally rearranged via 1,3-benzyl migration to yield the benzyl (1,3-thiazol-5-yl) sulfide 11 (Scheme 5).     

Reaction of N-Heterocycles with Acetylenedicarboxylates in the Presence of N-Alkylisatins or Ninhydrin. Efficient Synthesis of Spiro Compounds

Summary. The 1,3-dipolar intermediates generated by addition of isoquinoline, to dialkyl acetylenedicaboxylates are trapped by N-alkylisatins to produce dialkyl 1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-1-alkylspiro[3H-indol-3,2′-[2H,11bH][1,3]oxazino[2,3-a]isoquinoline]-3′,4′-dicarboxylates in excellent yields. The reaction of isoquinoline, quinoline, or pyridine with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of ninhydrin led to dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,2′-[2H,11bH][1,3]oxazino[2,3-a]isoquinoline]-3′,4′-dicarboxylate, dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,3′[3H,4aH][1,3]oxazino[3,2-a]quinoline]-1,2-dicarboxylate, or dimethyl 1,2-dihydro-1,3-dioxospiro[3H-indene-3,2′-[2H,9aH]pyrido[2,1-b][1,3]oxazino]-3,4-dicarboxylate.     

Prins-Reaktionen mit Arylaldehyden, 2. Mitt. Diene

By 1,4-addition of arylaldehydes to 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene in the presence of sulfuric acid 2-aryl-4,5-dimethyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans are obtained. From 1,3-butadiene and isoprene beside the corresponding 3,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans by reaction with two more molecules aldehydetrans-2,4,7-triphenyl-4a,7,8,8a-tetrahydro-4H,5H-pyrano[4,3-d-1,3-dioxines are formed. With 1,3-cyclohexadiene, however, 1,2-addition of benzaldehyde is observed to givecis-r-2,c-4-diphenyl-4a,5,6,8a-tetrahydro-1,3-benzodioxane.     

The reaction of o-phthalaldchydic acid with 5-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrazole

o-Phthalaldchydic acid reacted with 5-amino-1,3-dimethylpyrazole to yield 5-amino-1,3-dimethyl-4-phthalidylpyrazole. The latter was transformed to a tricyclic system; 1,3-dimethylpyrazolo [3,4-b]benzazepin-9-one, which in turn was reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to 9,10-dihydro-1,3-dimethylpyrazolo[3,4-b]benzazepine.     

Enhancement of 1,3-Propanediol production by cofermentation inEscherichia coli expressingKlebsiella pneumoniae dha regulon genes

1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD) is an intermediate in chemical and polymer synthesis. We have previously expressed the genes of a biochemical pathway responsible for 1,3-PD production, thedha regulon ofKlebsiella pneumoniae, inEscherichia coli. An analysis of the maximum theoretical yield of 1,3-PD from glycerol indicates that the yield can be improved by the cofermentation of sugars, provided that kinetic constraints are overcome. The yield of 1,3-PD from glycerol was improved from 0.46 mol/mol with glycerol alone to 0.63 mol/mol with glucose cofermentation and 0.55 mol/mol with xylose cofermentation. The engineeredE. coli also provides a model system for the study of metabolic pathway engineering.     

Comparative study of the mechanical relaxation behavior of polymethacrylates containing different bulky side groups

The syntheses of poly(1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate), poly(cis‐2‐phenyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate), poly(trans‐2‐phenyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate), poly(cis‐2‐cyclohexyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate), and poly(trans‐2‐cyclohexyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate) are reported. The mechanical relaxation spectrum of the simplest polymer, poly(1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate), exhibits a prominent β relaxation centered at ?98 °C, at 1 Hz, followed in increasing order of temperature by an ostensible glass–rubber relaxation process. In addition to the β relaxation, the loss curves of poly(trans‐2‐phenyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate) and poly(trans‐2‐cyclohexyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate) display in the glassy state a high activation energy relaxation, named the β* process, that seems to be a precursor of the glass–rubber relaxation of these polymers. The mechanical spectra of poly(trans‐2‐cyclohexyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate) and poly(cis‐2‐cyclohexyl‐1,3‐dioxan‐5‐yl methacrylate) exhibit a low activation energy process in the low‐temperature side of the spectra, which is absent in the other polymers. The molecular origin of the mechanical activity of these polymers in the glassy state is discussed in qualitative terms. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

New Chiral Diamines of the Dioxolane Series: (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-Dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylaminomethyl)- 1,3-dioxolane and (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-Dimethyl-4,5-bis(methyl- aminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane

The reaction of sodium diphenylamide with 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane gave (+)-(4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane, which was brought into complex formation with cobalt chloride. Treatment of 2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(tosyloxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolane with sodium N-methylanilide resulted in cleavage of the SÄO bond in the p-toluenesulfonate moiety with formation of N-methyl-N-phenyl-p-toluenesulfonamide and 4,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane disodium salt. Diethyl (4R,5R)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dicarboxylate reacted with methylamine to give the corresponding dicarboxamide which was reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to (4S,5S)-2,2-dimethyl-4,5-bis(methylaminomethyl)-1,3-dioxolane having chiral carbon and nitrogen atoms.

IIa–IIf were found to undergo vinyl polymerization with ring-opening reaction accompanying the elimination of ketone groups in bulk. IIg was found to undergo the quantitative ring-opening reaction accompanying the elimination of benzophenone in solution to obtain polyketone without any side reaction.

Reactions of Bisazomethines of the Naphtalene Series with 1,3-Diketones

Bisazomethines prepared from aromatic dialdehydes and 2-naphthylamine were for the first time reacted with the following diketones: 1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, 5-phenyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione, indandione, and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione was studied. The reactions with 1,3-diketones of the cyclohexane series yield benzophenanthridine derivatives. The reactions with indandione, depending on conditions, give either bisarylideneindandiones or bisdihydrobenzo[f]indenoquinoline. As evidenced by the ^13C NMR and IR spectra, in the case of biphenyl-4,4'-dicarbaldehyde bis[N-(2-naphthyl)imine] and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione, 4,4'-bis(3-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[f]quinolin-1-yl)biphenyl is formed.
