采用2-甲基-6-叔丁基苯酚和丙烯酸甲酯为原料,通过迈克尔加成反应合成半受阻酚类抗氧剂中间体β-(3-甲基-5-叔丁基-4-羟基苯基)丙酸甲酯.条件优化实验确定该抗氧剂中间体的最佳合成工艺条件为:2-甲基-6-叔丁基苯酚与丙烯酸甲酯物质的量之比为1∶1.1,催化剂KOH与2-甲基-6-叔丁基苯酚的物质的量比为1∶10,丙烯酸甲酯滴加温度为90℃,丙烯酸甲酯滴加时间为30 min,反应温度为130℃,反应时间为5 h.在此条件下,半受阻酚类抗氧剂中间体β-(3-甲基-5-叔丁基-4-羟基苯基)丙酸甲酯的收率大于70%,熔程41.6℃~44.0℃.IR和1H NMR证实所合成目标产物的化学结构与其理论结构相一致.DPPH法测定半受阻酚类抗氧剂中间体清除自由基的性能,并与全受阻酚类抗氧剂中间体β-(3,5-二叔丁基-4-羟基苯基)丙酸甲酯进行对比.结果表明,由于邻位取代基的不对称效应,使得空间位阻较小的不对称抗氧剂中间体β-(3-甲基-5-叔丁基-4-羟基苯基)丙酸甲酯清除DPPH·的活性高于邻位取代基空间位阻较大的对称抗氧剂中间体清除DPPH·的活性.     

Conformation of the piperidine ring: Part IV. Investigations of 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine derivatives*

Methods of synthesis of 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine(1), 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine (2) and 4-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl(3) are described. Interaction of the axial hydroxyl group with axial methyl groups in a chair form of these compounds causes a downfield shift of the methyl proton NMR signal of about 0.2 ppm. IR spectra of 1 and 2 indicate a considerable contribution in solution of non-chair forms stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds. In 3 only intermolecular hydrogen bonds were found. The crystal and molecular structure of 2 have been determined by direct methods and refined to R = 0.0468. The molecules exist in the solid state in a chair conformation only. Van der Waals interactions of bulky substituents hinder a close approach of neighbouring molecules necessary for the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.     

Preparation of <Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>-methyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">γ</Emphasis>-butyrolactone: Mechanism of its formation and utilization in 2-methyl-1-tetralone synthesis

α-Methyl-γ-butyrolactone (III) has been prepared directly from γ-butyrolactone (I) in 89 % yield by selective monomethylation conditions: K₂CO₃/DMC/210°C/7 h. The reaction mechanism was elucidated and described. An intermediate and two byproducts: methyl tetrahydro-3-methyl-2-oxofuran-3-carboxylate (II), 3-(methoxycarbonyl)propyl methyl carbonate (IV) and 3-(methoxycarbonyl)butyl methyl carbonate (V) were identified. The high temperature disproportionation of K₂CO₃ in the presence of dimethyl carbonate to MeOK was observed. The new selective synthesis of 2-methyl-1-tetralone (VI) from α-methyl-γ-butyrolactone (III) by Friedel-Crafts conditions was performed in 79 % yield.     

Theoretical Study of the Cycloaddition Reaction of a Tungsten‐Containing Carbonyl Ylide

The [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of a tungsten‐containing carbonyl ylide with methyl vinyl ether and the insertion reactions of the nonstabilized carbene complex intermediates produced have been investigated through the use of B3LYP density functional theory. The [3+2] cycloaddition reaction of the tungsten‐containing carbonyl ylide has been proven to proceed concertedly, reversibly, and with high endo selectivity. The intermolecular Si? H insertion reactions of the carbene complex intermediates have been proven to be favored over the intramolecular C? H insertion, in good agreement with experimental results. Moreover, the kinetic endo/exo ratio of the [3+2] cycloaddition reaction has been shown to determine the endo/exo selectivity of the Si? H insertion products. In addition, secondary orbital interactions involving the benzene ring and the carbonyl ligand on the metal center have turned out to strongly influence the high endo selectivity of the [3+2] cycloaddition reaction with methyl vinyl ether.

A new rearrangement has been found, the products of which are 2-[2'-(1-R-2,5-dioxopyrrolidinidene)-2'-(1-R-2,5-dioxopyrrolidinyl)methyl]phenylpyridines. A probable mechanism for the rearrangement has been proposed. The existence of atropoisomerism for the compounds obtained has been demonstrated by ¹H NMR spectra.     

Cascade rearrangement in the reaction of methyl trifluoropyruvate sulfonylimines with terminal alkynes

Methyl trifluoropyruvate benzene- and methanesulfonylimines react with hex-1-yne and phenylacetylene to give methyl N-sulfonyl-4-oxo-2-trifluoromethyl-4-R-but-2E-enimidates. The reaction mechanism includes the formation of a six-centered bipolar ion followed by its cascade rearrangement.     

Synthesis and characterization of di- and triorganotin(IV) complexes of 2-tert-butyl-4-methyl phenol

The di- and trialkyltin(IV) complexes of composition R₂SnCl_2−x (OAr), and n-Bu₃Sn(OAr) (R = n-Bu and Me; x = 1 and 2; OAr = OC₆H₃Bu ^t -2-Me-4) have been synthesized by the reactions of di-n-butyl and dimethyltin dichlorides and tri-n-butyltin(IV) chloride with 2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and triethylamine in tetrahydrofuran. The reaction of triphenyltin chloride with trimethylsilyl-2-t-butyl-4-methylphenoxide in the same solvent however, gives a complex of composition Ph₃Sn(OAr). The complexes have been characterized by microanalyses, molar conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations and IR and ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR and mass spectral studies. Thermal behaviour of the complexes has been studied by TGA and DTA techniques. From the non-isothermal TG data, the kinetic and thermodynamic parameters have been calculated employing Coats-Redfern equation and the mechanism of decomposition has been computed using non-isothermal kinetic method. Thermal investigations on the blends of poly(methylmethacrylate). PMMA, with organotin(IV)-2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenoxides have shown increased thermal stability compared to pure PMMA suggesting thereby their potential as additives towards PMMA.     

Radical polymerization of metal-coordinated monomers with ligands of pyrrole-containing schiff bases

The copper complexes and the cobalt complex with the ligand of 3-(2-pyrrolylmethyl-enimino)propene-1 (PIP) or p-(2-pyrrolylmethylenimino)styrene (PIS) were synthesized and homopolymerizations and the copolymerization with styrene, acrylonitrile, methyl methacrylate and acrylic acid studied. In the polymerization of chelate monomers, inhibition of radical polymerization by the central metal ion was observed, but the chelate polymer could be obtained only if the initiator was present in higher concentrations in the feed. It is considered that the strength of inhibition depends on the electronic configuration of d-orbitals of the central metal ion. The initiation mechanism of the cupric chelate monomer may be reduction of the metal ion by the redox reaction with a primary radical via the intramolecular electron transfer through the π-conjugated system of the ligand prior to the propagation step. This mechanism was verified by studying the redox reaction of various copper complexes with DPPH. In the system of the copper complex containing PIS and acylic acid the alternating copolymer could be obtained at any mole fraction of monomer mixture in feed.     

Tandem transformations of 10-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines resulted from the Michael addition of the nitrogen atom of the tetrahydropyridine fragment to the triple bond of activated alkynes

A reaction of 10-R-substituted tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines (R = CN, CONH₂, Me) with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, methyl and ethyl propiolates, and acetylacetylene has been studied. It was found that 1-acryloyl-10-cyanotetrahydrobenzo[b][1,6]naphthyridines are the major products of the reaction of alkyl propiolates with 10-cyano-substituted naphthyridines, whereas the reaction with 10-carbamoyl-substituted naphthyridines gives a mixture of 1-acryloyl-substituted naphthyridines and hexahydrobenzo[b]pyrido[3,4,5-d,e][1,6]naphthyridines. The latter are the only products in the reaction of 10-carbamoyl-substituted naphthyridines with acetylacetylene. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Cetylpyridinium bromide-based oil-in-water microemulsions as a medium for hydrolysis of esters of phosphorus acids in the presence of primary amines

High-resolution ¹H NMR technique with Fourier-transform and pulsed-gradient spin-echo was used to study the structure of oil-in-water microemulsions based on cetylpyridinium bromide. The sizes of microdrops and the distribution of components between the disperse and continuous phases were found. It was shown for the hydrolytic decomposition of O,O-bis-(p-nitrophenyl) methyl phosphonate in the presence of amines that the microemulsion medium can affect both the rate and mechanism of hydrolysis. The reaction rate constants depend on the structure of microdrops.     

Synthetic and structural studies of some chloro-substituted methyl 2,1-benzisoxazole-3-carboxylates and related compounds

Methyl 5-chloro- and 5,7-dichloro-2,1-benzisoxazole-3-carboxylates have been synthesized by treatment of o-nitromandelic and 5-chloro-2-nitroamandelic methyl esters, respectively, with thionyl chloride under appropriate reaction conditions. The structural assignments of both heterocyclic products were based on elemental and spectral analyses, and their conversion to the corresponding 5-chloro- and 5,7-dichloro substituted 2,1-benzisoxazole-3-carboxylic acids and isatins. Methyl α-chloro-o-nitrophenylacetate and o-nitrophenylcarbomethoxymethinyl sulfite were also obtained from reactions of methyl o-nitromandelate and thionyl chloride. A possible reaction mechanism involving two consecutive nucleophilic substitutions of methyl o-nitromandelate with thionyl chloride was proposed to account for the formation of methyl 5-chloro-2,1-benzisoxazole-3-carboxylate.     

取代基对有机钼化合物中α-氢转移反应势垒和产物稳定性的影响

使用B3LYP方法研究了发生在有机钼化合物R³R⁴Mo(≡CH)(CHR¹R²)和R³R⁴Mo(＝CH₂)(＝CR¹R²)之间的α-氢转移反应, 探讨了R¹, R², R³和R⁴位置上不同取代基对α-氢转移反应势垒和产物稳定性的影响. 研究发现, 金属钼有机化合物中, 发生α-氢转移的碳原子在过渡态中采用sp²杂化. R¹和R²位置上取代基对α-氢转移反应势垒的影响取决于取代基对过渡态中碳原子的未参与sp²杂化的p_z轨道上单电子的离域作用. 当R¹, R²位置是甲基时, 由于碳原子的p_z轨道与甲基的一个C—H键轨道间存在强的超共轭效应, 从而可以较大程度地降低α-氢转移反应的势垒. 研究结果还表明, 当R³, R⁴位置为SiH₃时的反应势垒较低. 所以当R¹和R² 位置为Me, R³和R⁴位置为SiH₃时, 反应势垒最低. 第一个甲基取代R¹或R²位置的H时, 反应势垒降低很大; 第二个甲基继续取代时, 反应势垒的降低约为第一个甲基的一半. 第一个SiH₃取代R³或R⁴位置的甲基时, 反应势垒降低较大; 第二个SiH₃继续取代时, 反应势垒的降低小于第一个SiH₃的一半. 对反应物和产物的相对稳定性的研究表明, 第一个甲基和第二个甲基对产物的相对能量的降低几乎相同; 第一个SiH₃降低产物的相对能量, 但是第二个SiH₃使产物的相对能量升高, 从而抵消了第一个SiH₃对产物的稳定作用.

2-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-b]pyrroles: synthesis and reactions

The synthesis and reactions of methyl 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylate (1a) are described. Upon reaction with methyl iodide, benzyl chloride, or acetic anhydride, this compound gave N-substituted products 1b-d. By hydrolysis of compounds 1a-c, the corresponding acids 2a-c were formed, or by reaction with hydrazine-hydrate, the corresponding carbohydrazides 3a-c were formed. By heating 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenly]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylic acid (2a) in acetic anhydride, 4-acetyl-2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furo[3,2-b]pyrrole (4) was formed. By hydrolysis of 4, 2-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole (5a) was formed, and reactions with methyl iodide or benzyl chloride gave N-substituted products 5b-c. The reaction of 4 with dimethyl butynedioate gave substituted benzo[b]furan 6. Compound 3a reacted with triethyl orthoesters giving 7a-c, which afforded with phosphorus (V) sulphide the corresponding thiones 8a-c. The thiones 8a-c reacted with hydrazine hydrate to form hydrazine derivatives 9a-c. The reaction of triethyl orthoformiate with compounds 9a-c led to furo[2′,3′: 4,5]pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-f][1,2,4]triazines 10a-c. Hydrazones 11a-c were formed from 3a-c and 5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]furan-2-carboxaldehyde. The effect of microwave irradiation on some condensation reactions was compared with “classical” conditions. The results showed that microwave irradiation shortens the reaction time while affording comparable yields.     

Deuteron magnetic resonance study of the mechanism of methyl group exchange between tetramethyltitanium and trimethylaluminium

The exchange of methyl groups between tetramethyltitanium and trimethylaluminium has been studied by the direct observation of a new resonance line in the ²D NMR spectrum of the reaction mixture containing perdeuterated and undeuterated organometallic compounds.The kinetics and mechanism of the exchange reaction are influenced by the ethyl ether concentration in a hexane solution of the tetramethyltitanium compound. At a molar ratio TiMe₄/Et₂0 > 1 rapid exchange occurs between unsolvated metal alkyls. Tetramethyltitanium etherate reacts with trimethylaluminium in two steps, an initial fast complexation to Me₃Ti [AlMe₄] which accounts for the transfer of a single methyl group from the titanium to the aluminium atom and a subsequent slow reverse process which leads to the transfer of methyl groups from the aluminium to the titanium atom and which results ultimately in a random equilibrium distribution of the labelled methyl groups amongst both metal atoms.Mixing the etherates of both titanium and aluminium methyl compounds led to the appearance of an extra signal downfield (τ 5.6 ppm) which is apparently due to the methyl resonance of the species [TiMe₃]⁺ in the solvent-separated ion-pair form of the complex [TiMe₃]⁺ [AlMe₄]^?.     

Metal Oxide Catalysts for Selective Reduction of NOx by Hydrocarbons: Toward Molecular Basis for Catalyst Design

Metal oxides are stable and highly durable catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by hydrocarbons and potential candidates for practical use. This review focuses on the development as well as the fundamental understanding of metal oxide based catalysts for selective reduction of NO by hydrocarbons. Our studies on the SCR-deNOx properties of Ga₂O₃/Al₂O₃, Cu-Al₂O₃, and Ag-Al₂O₃ catalysts are presented and it is attempted to demonstrate the advantages of this type of catalysts. On the basis of several spectroscopic characterizations, the effect of important factors, such as dispersion, coordination, and the electronic states of the metal cation, on the intrinsic catalytic activity are quite well clarified. From the in situ FTIR results, the reaction mechanism is understood in terms of formation and reaction of surface molecules. The structural and kinetic information obtained at the molecular level provides a useful strategy for designing better deNOx catalysts using metal oxides.     

Reaction of ferrocenylmethyl derivatives of silicon and germanium with methanol: Solvolysis of the metal-carbon bond in the presence of ferric ions

Nine ferrocenylmethyl derivatives of silicon and germanium were prepared and found to undergo methanolysis of their C---M (M = Si or Ge) bonds in the presence of ferric ions to give ferrocenylmethyl methyl ether. For this reaction, relative rate studies and polarographic studies of the pertinent ferrocene derivatives were carried out to obtain some insight into the reaction mechanism. The substituted ferricenium ion intermediate which is formed by oxidation with ferric ions can readily undergo nucleophilic attack by methanol on the metal (Si or Ge) atom. The observed higher reactivity of the germanium derivative relative to the silicon congener in this reaction is not that expected for the usual base-catalyzed attack at the metal atom, and may be reasonably interpreted in terms of a possible change in the transition state depending on the nature of the leaving group, viz. on the acidity of the corresponding hydrocarbon acid, in the solvolysis of the C---M bond.     

Synthesis of the Naphthalenone,Dihydroquinoline, and Dihydrofuran Derivatives

The reactions of enaminones with dimethyl diazomalonate were investigated in the presence of copper(II) acetylacetonate. From the reaction of (E)‐3‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐1‐phenylprop‐2‐en‐1‐one ( 6c ), dimethyl 2‐[methyl(phenyl)amino]‐4‐oxonaphthalene‐1,1‐(4H)‐dicarboxylate, was unexpectedly obtained as the major product. Quinoline derivatives were formed as the major products in the case of N‐methyl‐p‐anisidino and N‐methyl‐p‐toluidino enaminones. The reactions of acetyl enaminones were also realized, and quinoline derivatives were isolated as the major products. 3H‐ and 5H‐dihydrofurans were also formed as side products in these reactions. These results differ from those reported earlier on the reactions of tertiary enaminones with carbenes/metal carbenes.     

Aluminium alkyl complexes supported by [OSSO] type bisphenolato ligands: synthesis, characterization and living polymerization of rac-lactide

Aluminium alkyl complexes [(OSSO)AlR](1-3: R = Me, Et) were isolated in good yields from the protonolysis reaction of AlR3 with the corresponding tetradentate 1,omega-dithiaalkanediyl-bridged bisphenols (1,4-dithiabutanediyl-bis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), etbmpH2; ortho-xylylenedithio-bis(6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), xytbmpH2). The monomeric structures of all three complexes were confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. Complexes 1 and 2 have an isotypic packing arrangement. The aluminium center is coordinated by the etbmp ligand and one alkyl group with distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Complex 3 shows Cs symmetry with square pyramidal geometry around the metal center. Substitution reaction of complex 1 with trityl alcohol gave the monomeric alkoxide complex [(etbmp)Al(OCPh3)] 4, which has a similar trigonal bipyramidal geometry around the aluminium atom as complex 1. In the presence of isopropanol, complexes 1-3 initiated the living ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide (PDI = 1.03-1.06, Mw/Mn). The ligand structure influenced the tacticity of the obtained polymer, with complex 3 giving heterotactic-enriched polylactides.     

Preparation of Calix[4]arene Alkylamine Derivatives by Mannich Reaction and use as Phase-Transfer Catalysts for Esterification Reaction

In this study, 5,11,17,23-tetrakis[(N-ethylpiperazine)methyl]-25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene (3) and 5,11,17,23-tetrakis[(4-carboethoxy-N-piperidino) methyl]-25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxycalix[4]arene (4) were synthesized in one step according to the Mannich reaction by the treatment of calix[4]arene with a secondary amine (N-ethylpiperazine, ethyl-4-piperidincarboxylate) and formaldehyde. The calix[4]arene derivatives (3, 4) were characterized by a combination of FTIR, ¹H NMR and elemental analyses. The synthesized compounds were used in an esterification reaction as the phase transfer catalyst. The catalytic efficiency of the calix[4]arenes 3 and 4 was evaluated by carrying out the ester-forming reaction of alkali metal carboxylates (sodium butyrate or sodium caprylate) with p-nitrobenzyl bromide. It was observed that the ester-forming reaction of alkali metal carboxylates with p-nitrobenzyl bromide, using calix[4]arene-based catalyst 3 as a phase-transfer catalyst in dichloromethan, provided the best yields.
