Pseudohalogenverbindungen. XX. Perfluorierte alkan- und phenylsulfonylpseudohalogenide

The pseudohalide CF₃SO₂NCO has been synthesized by means of a new reaction involving trifluoromethanesulphonamide and chlorosulphonylisocyanate. This method may be used for preparing other perfluorinated alkanesulphonyl-, arenesulphonyl- and alkanecarbonyl-amides. Reactions of CF₃SO₂NCO with alcohols, thiols, phenols and amines lead to the corresponding carbonic acid esters, thio-esters, phenyl esters and ureas. Reactions with carbonic acids, aldehydes and dimethylsulphoxide gave CO₂ and the corresponding acid amides, azomethines and imino-dimethylsulphurane. Under pressure at 160°C, CF₃SO₂NCO reacts with phosphorus pentasulphide to give the previously unknown compound CF₃SO₂NCS; with phosphorus pentachloride under the same conditions, CF₃SO₂NCCl₂ is formed.

Some biological properties of these compounds were investigated.     

Darstellung von Dimethyl-N-Chlorammoniumtrifluormethansulfonat ((CH3)2NClH+ CF3SO3−)

Synthesis of Dimethyl-N-Chloroammonium Trifluoromethane Sulfonate ((CH₃)₂NClH⁺ CF₃SO₃^?) The weak base dimethyl-N-chloroamine, (CH₃)₂NCl, reacts with trifluormethane sulfonic acid at ?40 to ?30°C to give dimethyl-N-chloroammonium trifluoromethane sulfonate (CH₃)₂NClH⁺CF₃SO₃^?. The extremely hygroscopic salt decomposes upon melting at 107 to 108°C and thus is slightly more stable than the hydrogensulfate. Water or methanole liberate dimethyl-N-chloroamine from the salt. The salt is insoluble in ether and decomposes after dissolving in methylene chloride to give dimethylammonium trifluoromethane sulfonate (CH₃)₂NH₂⁺CF₃SO₃^?.     

Convenient Access to α‐Fluorinated Alkylammonium Salts

A series of novel α‐fluoroalkyl ammonium salts was obtained from the corresponding cyano compounds or nitriles by reaction with anhydrous HF. Room‐temperature stable trifluoromethyl ammonium salts were obtained in quantitative yield in a one‐step reaction at ambient temperature from the commercially available starting materials BrCN or ClCN. The novel cations [CF₃CF₂NH₃]⁺, [HCF₂CF₂NH₃]⁺, and [(NH₃CF₂)₂]²⁺ were obtained from CF₃CN, HCF₂CN, and (CN)₂, respectively, and anhydrous HF. The aforementioned fluorinated ammonium cations were isolated as room temperature stable [AsF₆]^? and/or [SbF₆]^? salts, and characterized by multi‐nuclear NMR and vibrational spectroscopy. The salts [HCF₂NH₃][AsF₆] and [CF₃NH₃][Sb₂F₁₁] were characterized by their X‐ray crystal structure.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Hexakis(N—allylthiourea)tetracopper(I) Tetratrifluoromethanesulfonate, [Cu4{CH2=CHCH2NHC(S)NH2}6](SO3CF3)4

Hexakis(N—allylthiourea)tetracopper(I) Tetratrifluoromethanesulfonate, [Cu₄{CH₂=CHCH₂NHC(S)NH₂}₆](CF₃SO₃)₄ (sp.gr.P2₁/n, a = 13.5463(8), b = 24.129(2), c = 19.128(1)Å, β = 108.053(6)°, Z = 4, R = 0.0440 for 13548 unique reflections) was obtained by reduction of Cu(CF₃SO₃)₂ with excess of N—allylthiocarbamide in benzene medium. Four crystallographical independent Cu atoms possess trigonal environment of three S atoms of CH₂=CHCH₂NHC(S)NH₂ moiety and form Cu₄S₆⁴⁺ adamantane—like fragments. The latteres are connected with CF₃SO₃^— anions via (C)—H···F hydrogen bonds.     

TG-DTA study on the lanthanoid trifluoromethanesulfonate complexes

The thermal decomposition of the lanthanoid trifluoromethanesulfonate (triflate) complexes {Ln(CF₃SO₃)₃·9H₂O; Ln=La-Lu{ was studied by TG and DTA methods. From the endothermic and exothermic data of Ln(CF₃ SO₃)3·9H₂O complexes, pyrolysis behavior of the complexes is classified into three groups: 1) La-Nd salts, 2) Sm-Ho salts, 3) Er-Lu salts. It has also shown that all the final decomposition products were found to result in the formation of LnF₃. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

1 IX. Mitt.: s. [1].

. Acid-catalyzed substitutions on (perchlorofluoromethylthio)pyrroles and their agro-biological activities In the presence of C₄F₉SO₃H the (perhalomethylthio)pyrroles 1a–c react with Cl_3?nF_nCSCl (n = 1–3) to give mixtures of the 2,5- and 2,4-disubstituted pyrroles 2a–f and 3a–h . 2a and 3a react with CF₃SCl (catalyst CF₃SO₃H) yielding 2,3,5-tris (trifloromethylthio)pyrrole ( 4a ), which under similar conditions reacts further to give 2,3,4,5-tetrakis (trifluoromethylthio)pyrrole ( 5 ). As a by-product during the conversion of 3a to 4a 2,3,4-tris (trifluoromethylthio)pyrrole ( 4b ) is formed. The pyrroles 2a , 4a and 5 form the mercury salts 6a–c ; compound 5 yields also a silver salt 7 . The ¹H- and ¹⁹F-NMR. spectra are discussed and the agro-biological properties of the compounds investigated.     

Mechanistic insights into the reaction of CF3CCl3 with SO3: Theory and experiment

Reaction mechanism of 1,1,1-trifluorotrichloroethane (CF₃CCl₃) and sulphur trioxide (SO₃) in the presence of mercury salts (Hg₂SO₄ and HgSO₄) was studied applying the density functional theory (DFT) at the UB3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level. It was found that this reaction occurs in the free radical chain path as follows: mercury(I) sulphate free radical is generated by heat, causing CF₃CCl₃ to produce the CF₃CCl₂ free radical which reacts with SO₃ leading to the formation of CF₃CCl₂OSO₂ decomposing into CF₃COCl and SO₂Cl. The SO₂Cl free radical triggers CF₃CCl₃ to regenerate CF₃CCl₂ which recycles the free radical growth reaction. This elementary reaction has the highest energy barrier and it is therefore the rate control step of the whole reaction path. Experiment data can confirm the existence of the mercury(I) salt free radical and the free radical initiation stage. So, mercury salts play the role of initiators not that of catalysts. The results agree well with our hypothesis.     

Difluoromethylation of Amines with Zn(CF3)Br · 2 CH3CN,Cd(CF3)2 · 2 CH3CN and the System Bi(CF3)3/AlCl3

The reactions of Zn(CF₃)Br · 2 CH₃CN, Cd(CF₃)₂ · 2 CH₃CN or Bi(CF₃)₃/AlCl₃ with tertiary amines lead to the formation of quaternary ammonium salts of the general formula [R₃NCF₂H]X. The reaction of 4‐N,N‐dimethylaminopyridine with Zn(CF₃)Br · 2 CH₃CN yields (N‐difluoromethyl)‐4‐N,N‐dimethylaminopyridinium bromide. Bi(CF₃)₃/AlCl₃ reacts with 1,4‐diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane to form a mixture of mono‐ and bis(difluoromethylammonium) salts.     

Über die Reaktion von Phosphorpentachlorid mit BF3 · NH3

Phosphorus pentachloride reacts with BF₃ · NH₃ to give [Cl₃P?N? PCl₃][BCl₄](Va). Mechanism of formation and chemical behaviour to SO₂ and H₂S are described, followed by a presentation and discussion of the ³¹P, ¹⁹F, and ¹¹B NMR spectra of the adducts formed by P₂NOCl₅ and BF₃, BCl₃, and PF₅, respectively.

Tin(II) fluoride reacts with Lewis acids, AsF₅ and SbF₅, in a 2:1 ratio, to give salts of the [Sn₂F₃⁺] cation. Reaction of SnF·MF₆ with SnF₂ in liquid SO₂ also produces the [Sn₂F₃] [MF₆] salt. Tin-119 Mössbauer data are presented and compared with those for SnF₂, SnF·MF₆ and Sn(SbF₆)₂.     

IR spectra and thermal decomposition/dehydration of double complex salts of lanthanum(III) sulphate complex anions with several cobalt(III) ammine complex cations

Double complex salts of lanthanum(III) sulphate complex anions with several cobalt(III) ammine complex cations, [Co(NH₃)₆][La(SO₄)₃]·H₂O (1), (NH₄)₃[Co(NH₃)₅ H₂O]-[La(SO₄)₃]₂·2H₂O (2), and (NH₄)₃[Co(NH₃)₄(H₂O)₂][La(SO₄)₃]₂·2H₂O (3), were prepared by the addition of hexaamminecobalt(III), pentaammineaquacobalt(III), and cis- tetra-amminediaquacobalt(III) complexes to the solution containing lanthanum(III) ion and excess ammonium sulphate. The IR spectra of sulphate groups of these double complex salts were much more complicated than those of the almost free sulphate groups such as (NH₄)₂SO₄ and [Co(NH₃)₆]₂(SO₄)₃·5H₂O. Furthermore, values of activation energy in the dehydration process of 1, 2 and 3 were estimated using modified Doyle's and Wiedemann's method. They were 95.6 ± 4.3, 157.1 ± 15.5 and 163.2 ± 20.8 kJ mol^?1, respectively. Here, one molecule water is released per molecule of 1, 2 and 3.

Crystal structures and physicochemical properties of mixed salts of ammonium nitrate and sulfate

Mixed salts (NH₄)₂SO₄·2NH₄NO₃ (1) and (NH₄)₂SO₄·3NH₄NO₃ (2) were synthesized and studied by X-ray diffraction analysis. The unit cell parameters of these salts were determined and their crystal structures were solved. The thermal stability of the salts was studied by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The temperatures and enthalpies of incongruent melting of compounds 1 and 2 were determined. The enthalpies of formation from the constituent salts were estimated.     

Platinum complexes bearing 2,2′-dipyridylamine ligand

The replacement of the iodide ligands in the complex [PtI₂(dpa)] (1) (dpa is 2,2′-dipyridylamine) by silver triflate in acetonitrile afforded the compound [Pt(dpa)(MeCN)₂](SO₃CF₃)₂ (2). Homoleptic complexes [Pt(dpa)₂](X)₂ (3·(X)₂) were synthesized by the treatment of [PtI₂(dpa)] (1) with 2,2′-dipyridylamine in the presence of silver salts AgX in methanol (X = NO₃) or acetonitrile (X = SO₃CF₃). The deprotonation of the complex [3](SO₃CF₃)₂ to give the homoleptic complex [Pt(dpa-H)₂] (4) was performed by two methods, e.g., by the treatment of [3](SO₃CF₃)₂ with 2 equiv. of NaOH in methanol or by the addition of excess Et₃N to a suspension of [3](SO₃CF₃)₂ in methanol. The structures of compounds 1–4 were established by elemental analyses, high resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, IR and NMR spectroscopy; the crystal structure of complexes [2](SO₃CF₃)₂, [3](NO₃)₂·H₂O, [3](SO₃CF₃)₂·2H₂O, and 4 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.     

New pentafluoro-λ-sulfanyl (SF5) perfluoroalkyl benzene derivatives

Preparation of the following new SF₅-perfluoroalkyl benzene derivatives, m-SF₅CF₂CF₂C₆H₄X (X=NO₂, NH₂, OH, I, NHCOCH₃, SO₂Cl, SO₃H, SO₃K) has been achieved. The new compounds were characterized by their respective IR, NMR and HRMS or elemental analysis.     

The syntheses of fluorinated alkanesulfonamides and poly-(fluorinated alkanesulfonamides)

In order to synthesize poly-(fluorinated alkanesulfonamides) a series of model experiments were carried out: (1) reactions of fluorinated alkanesulfonyl fluorides with amines, (2) reactions of fluorinated alkanesulfonyl chloride with amines and (3) reactions of sodium salts of fluorinated alkanesulfonamides with alkyl iodides of fluorinated alkanesulfonic acid esters. Seventeen new fluorinated alkanesulfonamides were prepared in good yields, namely: R_FO(CF₂)₂SO₂NR¹R² (1a-h), R¹R²NSO₂R_FSO₂NR¹R² (2a-h) and [Cl (CF₂)₄O(CF₂)₂SO₂NH(CH₂)₃]₂ (3). Reaction of R_FSO₂NH₂ with equivalent amount of NaOCH₃ and methyl iodide was shown to give both the N-mono- and N,N-di-substituted amides. Consequently the N-monosubstituted alkanesulfonamides were chosen as monomers for syntheses of the poly-(fluorinated alkanesulfonamides) and two new polymers were synthesized. The effect of the condition of the polycondensation on M?_n of the polymers were discussed and elemental composition, ¹⁹F NMR, IR, M?_n, Tg, tensile strength, thermal and chemical stabilities of the polymers were measured. Several new perfluoroalkanesulfonyl chlorides CISO₂R_FSO₂Cl (4a-c) and fluorinated alkanesulfonic acid esters (6a-d) were synthesized. However, reaction of CFCl₂CF₂O(CF₂)₂SO₂F with AlCl₃ was found to give Cl₃CCF₂O(CF₂)₂SO₂F (5) instead of the expected sulfonyl chloride.     

Trifluoromethylsulfonyl-Based Salts of BEDT-TTF: Crystal and Electronic Structures and Physical Properties11

Three 2 : 1 salts of the organic donor molecule bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT-TTF or ET) with trifluoromethylsulfonyl-based anions N(SO₂CF₃)₂⁻, CH(SO₂CF₃)₂⁻ and C(SO₂CF₃)₃⁻ were prepared by electrocrystallization. These salts were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy, electrical resistivity measurements and electronic band structure calculations. (ET)₂N(SO₂CF₃)₂ is a two-dimensional (2D) metal, but its ESR spin susceptibility above 150 K shows a weakly semiconducting behavior, presumably because during ESR measurements the sample cooling rate is slow hence allowing the disordered anions to readjust their positions. (ET)₂CH (SO₂CF₃)₂ is a 2D metal and undergoes a metal-to-insulator (MI) transition at 110 K due probably to a geometry change of the donor molecule layers. (ET)₂C(SO₂CF₃)₃ is a one-dimensional (1D) metal and undergoes an MI between 180 and 240 K, which is expected to be of charge density wave type.     

Preparation of CuAsF6 and Ni[AsF6]2.2SO2

Arsenic pentafluoride reacts with excess copper in sulphur dioxide to give CuAsF₆. A similar reaction with elemental nickel yields Ni(AsF₆)₂.2SO₂, the structure of which is discussed. The X-ray powder diffraction photograph of CuAsF₆ was indexed on a rhombohedral unit cells a = 5.49±.01Å, α = 55.7±.1°, V = 105.4ų, Z = 1, and is of the same structural type as LiSbF₆ showing that the cuprous ion is octahedrally surrounded by fluorines. Comparison of the unit cell volume of CuAsF₆ with other structurally similar hexafluoroarsenate salts shows that the effective volume of cuprous ion is small indicating substantial anion-cation interaction. Arsenic pentafluoride reacts with Monel in the presence of sulphur dioxide give a mixtures of CuAsF₆ and Ni[AsF₆]₂.2SO₂.     

Fluorinated phosphorus compounds: Part 7. The reactions of bis(fluoroalkyl) phosphorochloridates with nitrogen nucleophiles

Forty bis(fluoroalkyl) phosphoramidates (R_FO)₂P(O)R were prepared in 10-91% yield by treating phosphorochloridates (R_FO)₂P(O)Cl where R_F was HCF₂CH₂, HCF₂CF₂CH₂, HCF₂CF₂CF₂CF₂CH₂, CF₃CH₂, C₂F₅CH₂, C₃F₇CH₂, (CF₃)₂CH, (FCH₂)₂CH and (CH₃)₂CF₃C with nucleophiles HR, where R was NH₂, NHMe, NMe₂, NHEt and NEt₂ in diethyl ether at 0-5 °C. The bulky chloridate [(CH₃)₂CF₃CO]₂P(O)Cl reacted with ammonia, methylamine, dimethylamine and ethylamine, but not with diethylamine—even on heating in the presence of 4-dimethylaminopyridine—due to steric hindrance at phosphorus. Fluorinated phosphoramidates have lower basicity and nucleophilicity than their unfluorinated counterparts: (EtO)₂P(O)NH₂ is more easily hydrolysed by HCl than (CF₃CH₂O)₂P(O)NH₂ and whereas, (EtO)₂P(O)NH₂ is known to react with oxalyl chloride and thionyl chloride to give (EtO)₂P(O)NCO and (EtO)₂P(O)NSO respectively, (CF₃CH₂O)₂P(O)NH₂ reacted only with oxalyl chloride to give (CF₃CH₂O)₂P(O)NCO in 10% yield. Two other new fluorinated species, (CF₃CH₂O)₂P(O)NHOMe and (CF₃CH₂O)₂P(O)N₃, were prepared by nucleophilic substitution of bis(trifluoroethyl) phosphorochloridate with methoxyamine and azide ion.
