1-Phenyl-1-halo-1-silacyclohexanes

The approaches to synthesis of 1-phenyl-1-halo-1-silacyclohexanes C₅H₁₀Si(Ph)X (X = F, Cl, Br) have been examined. 1-Phenyl-1-chloro-1-silacyclohexane has been prepared via the known reaction of phenyltrichlorosilane with dimagnesium derivative of 1,5-dibromopentane; up to 20% of 1-bromo-1-phenyl-1-silacyclohexane admixture is formed along with the target product. The minor product formation has been prevented using an alternative method of chlorination of 1-phenyl-1-silacyclohexane with N-chlorosuccinimide. 1-Phenyl-1-fluoro-1-silacyclohexane has been obtained in close to quantitative yield via the reaction of 1-phenyl-1-chloro-1-silacyclohexane with SbF₃ and in 70% yield via its reaction with HF. The synthesis of 1-phenyl-1-bromo-1-silacyclohexane via bromination of 1-phenyl-1-chloro-1-silacyclohexane with N-bromosuccinimide has given the target product as a minor one, the major product being disiloxane formed due to hydrolysis of the Si–Br bond.     

The mechanism of thermal dehydrochlorination. Pyrolysis of 1-Chloro-1-fluoroethane and 1-chloro-1, 1-difluoroethane

The thermal decompositions of 1-chloro-1-fluoroethane and 1-chloro-1,1-difluorethane at atmospheric pressure have been studied in the temperature range 500–600°C in a flow system. The dehydrochlorinations are homogenous in a carbonaceous reactor and unimolecular. The rate constants are given by and The criteria for molecular or chain processes in thermal dehydrochlorinations are discussed.     

1:1 alternating copolymers of 1-bicyclobutanecarbonitrile with styrene

High molecular weight, 1:1 alternating copolymers of 1-bicyclobutanecarbonitrile with styrene were prepared in tetramethylenesulfone solution by complexing the electron-poor bicyclobutane monomer with zinc chloride. Methyl 1-bicyclobutanecarboxylate under these conditions gave copolymers containing a slight excess of styrene units (ratio 1:1.3 to 1:1.8). High molecular weight homopolymers of 1-bicyclobutanecarbonitrile and of methyl 1-bicyclobutanecarboxylate were prepared similarly. The tendency of the bicyclobutane nitrile to form 1:1 alternating copolymers is as great as that of its vinyl analog, acrylonitrile, and the synthesis of other alternating copolymers from this monomer should be possible.     

Transsilylation of disilazanes with 1-chloro-1-methyl-1-silacyclobutane and other triorganylchlorosilanes

The first stage of the reaction of hexamethyldisilazane with 1-chloro-1-methyl-1-silacyclotmtane gives 1,3,3,3-tetramethyl-1,1-trimethylenedisilazane, and after that 1,3-dimethyl-1,3-bis(trimethylene)disilazane is formed. The latter reacts with 1-chloro-1-methyl-1-silacyclobutane to give tris[methyl(trimethylene)silyl] amine. From a large number of examples it is shown that transsilylation of disilazanes with chlorosilanes is a general reaction.

The title compounds are prepared by reaction of disubstituted diazomethanes with 1-chloro-2-phenyl-2-trimethylsilyl-1-phosphaalkene. The chemistry of the 1-chloro-1-phosphiranes is described.     

Dispersed fluorescence spectroscopy of the CBr2A1B1-X1A1 transition

Dispersed fluorescence spectra following the excitation of the CBr2A1B1-X1A1 2 and 2 bands at visible wavelengths were acquired in a discharge supersonic free jet expansion using an intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) detector. The dispersed fluorescence spectra show signal-to-noise ratios of up to 60 and extend out to a maximum red shift frequency of 6000 cm(-1). Complete and detailed vibrational structure of the ground singlet state (X1A1) was observed. Vibrational parameters including fundamental frequencies, anharmonicities, and coupling constants were determined for the CBr2 X1A1 state. Additional vibrational structure starting at approximately 3650 cm(-1) was observed and this indicates the singlet-triplet energy gap to be >10 kcal mol(-1).     

1-Methyl-1-phenyl-3,3-dimethyl-3-dimethylamino-1-propanol synthesis

Summary A new tertiary amino alcohol, 1-methyl-1-phenyl-3,3-dimethyl-3-dimethylamino-1-propanol,was prepared; it failed to enter the esterification reaction.The present work was begun during the life of I. N. Nazarov as a small part of a systematic study suggested by him.     

Palladium-catalyzed synthesis of 1-alkylphosphonium salts from 1-alkenes

A palladium(0) complex catalyzes the addition reaction of a triarylphosphine and a protic acid to a 1-alkene, giving a 1-alkylphosphonium salt. The treatment of atmospheric ethylene, triphenylphosphine, and (CF3SO2)2NH in the presence of Pd2(dba)3.CHCl3 (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) (0.1 mol %) in chlorobenzene at 65 degrees C for 5 h gave ethylphosphonium salt in 98% isolated yield. The anti-Markovnikov adduct 1-propylphosphonium salt was obtained by the reaction of atmospheric propene in 95% yield. 1-Butene was converted to 1-butylphosphonium salt in 92% yield in the presence of 1 mol % catalyst. This reaction competed with olefin isomerization, and a mixture of 2-butene and 1-butene (>20:1) was recovered. The reactions of 1-pentene and 1-hexene with triphenylphosphine gave modest yields of the products. The less reactive 1-alkenes, however, reacted effectively with tris(p-chlorophenyl)phosphine. The inner olefins, 2- and 3-pentene also gave a 1-pentylphosphonium salt in high yields via rapid olefin migration.     

Electronic, vibrational, and rotational structures in the S0 1A1 and S1 1A1 states of phenanthrene

Electronic and vibrational structures in the S(0) (1)A(1) and S(1) (1)A(1) states of jet-cooled phenanthrene-h(10) and phenanthrene-d(10) were analyzed by high-resolution spectroscopy using a tunable nanosecond pulsed laser. The normal vibrational energies and molecular structures were estimated by ab initio calculations with geometry optimization in order to carry out a normal-mode analysis of observed vibronic bands. The rotational structure was analyzed by ultrahigh-resolution spectroscopy using a continuous-wave single-mode laser. It has been demonstrated that the stable geometrical structure is markedly changed upon the S(1) ← S(0) electronic excitation. Nonradiative internal conversion in the S(1) state is expected to be enhanced by this structural change. The observed fluorescence lifetime has been found to be much shorter than the calculated radiative lifetime, indicating that the fluorescence quantum yield is low. The lifetime of phenanthrene-d(10) is longer than that of phenanthrene-h(10) (normal deuterium effect). This fact is in contrast with anthracene, which is a structural isomer of phenanthrene. The lifetime at the S(1) zero-vibrational level of anthracene-d(10) is much shorter than that of anthracene-h(10) (inverse deuterium effect). In phenanthrene, the lifetime becomes monotonically shorter as the vibrational energy increases for both isotopical molecules without marked vibrational dependence. The vibrational structure of the S(0) state is considered to be homogeneous and quasi-continuous (statistical limit) in the S(1) energy region.

Thermolysis of 1-(1-aryl-1-bromomethyl)cyclopropyl bromides: a reinvestigation

Two compounds, the (Z)- and (E)-isomers of 2,4-dibromo-1-p-tolyl-1-butene 2a and 3a, respectively, were isolated in 65% total yield when 1-(1-bromo-1-p-tolylmethyl)cyclopropyl bromide (1a) was heated at 150 degrees C for 1 h. 1,1-Dibromo-2-p-tolylcyclobutane (4a), previously reported to be the only product in this reaction, was not detected. The phenyl analogue of 1a reacted similarly and gave the (Z)- and (E)-isomers of 2,4-dibromo-1-phenyl-1-butene 2b and 3b, respectively, in 60% yield. A rationale for the reaction is presented.     

GAS PERMEABILITY OF COPOLY(1-TRIMETHYL-SILYL-1-PROPYNE-PENTAMETHYL-DISILYL-1-PROPYNE) MEMBRANE

The permeability of copoly (1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne-pentamethyldisilyl-1-propyne) membrane for twelve gases (0_2, N_2, CO_2, H_2, D_2, He, At, CH_4, C_2H_4, C_2H_6, C_3H_6 and C_3H_8) was examined. The basic laws of solution and diffusion of the gases in the membrane were expounded preliminarily. It was found that a linear relationship between logarithm of diffusion coefficient (D) and critical molar volume (V_c) of the gases. The permeation characteristics of the gases in the copoly (1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne-pentamethyldisilyl-1-propyne) membrane was also discussed.     

Kinetics of surface modification induced by submonolayer electrochemical oxygen adsorption on Pt(1 1 1)

Electrochemical oxygen adsorption/desorption below monolayer level leads to a disordering of platinum single-crystal surfaces vicinal to the (1 1 1) plane. The kinetics can be described by means of a consecutive reaction from (1 1 1)-terrace sites to (1 1 0)-defect sites, in which (1 0 0)-defects act as intermediates. The first oxidation of the electrode reflects independent contributions from terrace and step sites, the latter being structure sensitive. Oxygen adsorption charges amount to a mean value of one electron per step site.     

Copolymerization of 4-methyl-2-pentyne with 1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne and 1-trimethylgermyl-1-propyne with Nb-containing catalysts

It has been shown that the copolymerization of 4-methyl-2-pentyne with 1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne or 1-trimethylgermyl-1-propyne with the use of niobium pentachloride-based catalytic systems in the presence of Ph₃Bi, Et₃SiH, and Bu₄Sn as cocatalysts yields corresponding copolymers of various compositions. The technique of determining the composition of copolymers from their IR spectra has been developed. The reactivity ratios of the monomers have been estimated. It has been demonstrated that these values increase in a sequence 4-methyl-2-pentyne > 1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne > 1-trimethylgermyl-1-propyne.     

1-Arylquinolizidines

The reaction of arylmagnesium bromides with 1-ketoquinolizidine provided predominantly 1(e)-aryl-1(a)-hydroxyquinolizidines. Dehydration of the latter and subsequent hydrogenation yielded 1-arylquinolizidines.     

Chemoselective 1-ethylpiperidine hypophosphite (EPHP)-mediated intermolecular radical additions of 1-deoxy-1-halo-1-iodo-alditols to electron-deficient olefins

The chemoselective radical reduction of the iodine atom in a series of 1-deoxy-1-halo-1-iodo-alditols with the 1-ethylpiperidine hypophosphite (EPHP)/AIBN system is described. EPHP is also a good chain carrier for the radical addition of gem-dihalocompounds to electron-deficient olefins. Thus, the synthesis of 4-halo-glycooctononitriles and 4-halo-glycoheptononitriles can be achieved by an intermolecular addition of the 1-deoxy-1-halo-alditol-1-yl radical intermediate to acrylonitrile.     

Cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) polymorphisms and breast cancer risk in Korean women

Cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) is involved in the 2-hydroxylation of estrogen, the hormone that plays a critical role in the etiology of breast carcinoma. We evaluated the associations between two CYP1A1 polymorphisms [MspI (rs4646903); Ile462Val (rs1048943)] and breast cancer in a multicenter case-control study of 513 breast cancer cases and 447 controls in Korea. Women carrying the T allele of the CYP1A1 MspI polymorphism were found to have a 1.72-fold (95% CI 1.11-2.68) greater risk of developing breast cancer. No association was found between any CYP1A1 Ile462Val polymorphism and breast cancer. Haplotype analysis of the two loci showed that the CA haplotype was associated with the lowest risk of breast cancer, and CA/CA diplotypes were associated with a lower risk of breast cancer [OR=0.28 (0.13-0.61)] than others/others diplotypes. Moreover, this reduced risk was more pronounced among women with a lower body mass index (BMI) [OR=0.18 (0.06-0.58)] or with a shorter lifetime exposure to estrogen [OR=0.23 (0.07-0.81)]. The results obtained suggest that the CYP1A1 MspI polymorphisms could affect susceptibility to breast cancer.     

Transformation of Phosphaalkynes into 1H- and 2H-Phosphirenes1

Abstract

The 2H-phosphirene 4 is synthesized from the spirocyclic 3H-1,2,4-diazaphosphole 1 by low temperature photolysis. The isomeric 1H-phosphirenes 7 are formed by a [2+1]-cycloaddition process of chlorocarbenes, generated from diazirines. onto the triple bond of phosphaalkynes. When the 1-chlon-1H-phosphirenes 7 are allowed to react with a series of nucleophiles substitution occurs yielding the 1H-phosphirenes 9, 11 and 12. The existance of a phosphirenium cations, for instance 13 is discussed.
