Reactions of Grignard reagents with 1,3-dicyanoadamantane

Reactions of Grignard reagents RMgX (R = Me, Et, Pr, Bu; X = Br, I) with 1,3-dicyanoadamantane (1) were studied. Optimum conditions for the synthesis of monoaddition products of Grignard reagents to compound 1 were established. The first stage of the reaction of cyanoadamantane 1 with MeMgBr was studied by the MNDO-PM3 method. According to calculations, the more preferable reaction mechanism involves formation of a six-membered cyclic intermediate containing two Mg atoms, two C atoms, and one Br and one N atom.     

Fragmentation Pathways of Singly- and Doubly-charged Ions in the Mass Spectra of Si-, N- and C-Substituted 1,3-Dioxa-6-aza-2-silacyclooctanes

The fragmentation pathways of singly- and doubly-charged ions in the mass spectra of Si-, N-, and C-substituted 1,3-dioxa-6-aza-2-silacyclooctanes upon electron impact have been studied. The directions for the fragmentation of the singly- and doubly-charged molecular ions differ markedly. All the doubly-charged fragmentation ions are formed by the loss of neutral molecules from M⁺⁺ and contain nitrogen and silicon atoms.     

(Fluorosilyl)ethylenediamines and fluorosilyl-1,3-diaza-2-silacyclopentanes

This paper presents the chemistry of ethylenediamines and fluorosilanes. The synthesis of thermally stable monosilyl (1-5)- and bis(fluorosilyl)ethylenediamines (6) is described. Starting with the dilithium salt of ethylenediamine and F₂Si(CMe₃)₂ the five-membered 1,3-diaza-2-silacyclopentane (8) is obtained. The reaction of tetra- and trifluorosilanes with dilithiated bis(silyl)ethylenediamines leads to the formation of 1,3-diaza-2-fluorosilylsilacyclopentanes (9-14). Fluorosilanes substitute 8 in 1 and 3 positions (15-28). A fluorosilyl-bridged five-membered ring (29) is isolated in the reaction of 1-trimethylsilyl-1,3-diaza-2-silacyclopentane, BuLi and MeSiF₃. In the synthesis of N-fluorosilyl-1,3-diaza-2-silacyclopentanes constitutional isomers were formed (30-33). Quantum-chemical calculations support the isomerisation mechanism. An iminosilane with an SiN double bond is the intermediate product of the rearrangement process.Crystal structures of 7, 13, 20 and 23 are reported.

Structural and vibrational studies of molecular conductors using quantum mechanical methods: 1,3-Dithiole-2-thione, 1,3-dithiole-2-one, 1,3-dioxole-2-one and 1,3-dioxole-2-thione

Computations were carried out by employing the RHF and density functional theory (DFT) methods to investigate the geometries, atomic charges, harmonic vibrational frequencies for the 1,3-dithiole-2-thione (DTT), 1,3-dithiole-2-one (DTO), 1,3-dioxole-2-thione (DOT) and 1,3-dioxole-2-one (DOO) molecules and their radical cations. The geometrical parameters and atomic charges on various atomic sites of the DTT and DOT molecules and their radical cations suggest extended conjugation in these systems. Contrary to this, for the DOO⁺ and DTO⁺ ions there is no evidence in favour of such conjugation, however, the neutral molecules exhibit some conjugation. Harmonic forced field and vibrational mode calculations provided convincing theoretical evidence for the reassignment of some fundamental vibrational modes for all the four molecules. In going from the neutral species to the charged ions for all the four cases the CC stretching frequency is found to decrease drastically. The CS stretching frequency reduces drastically for the DTT and DOT molecules as compared to their radical cations whereas the CO stretching frequency is found to increase in going from the neutral molecule to its radical cation for the DOO and DTO molecules. The ring stretching mode with a₁ symmetry and CC and CO/S stretching modes in these molecules appear to help in conversion of neutral molecule into respective radical cation and neighbouring radical cation into respective neutral molecule. Thus, there appears the feasibility of stretching vibrational mode coupling with electron transfer.     

Investigation on radical polymerization of 2-methylene-1,3-dioxolanes and 2-methylene-1,3-oxazolidines

The reaction of 2-methylene-1,3-dioxolanes and 2-methylene-1,3-oxazolidines with benzoyl peroxide (acceptor radical) and with N-ethylmaleimide (acceptor) was investigated. It was shown that benzoyl peroxide adds to monomers 1a and 1b , giving the corresponding linear diester amides 1a and 1b respectively. The oxazolidine 1c adds benzoyl peroxide, without ring opening, by addition to the exomethylene group. Together with N-ethylmaleimide the oxazolidines 1a or 1b produce deep-colored charge transfer complexes, resulting in high molecular poly-N-ethylmaleimides probably via a radical mechanism. The 1,3-dioxolanes 2a and 2b were radically polymerized to produce polyacetals by vinyl polymerization. 2c was polymerized to produce randomly containing acetal units and ester units. The mechanism of polymerization of 2e is complex, affording polymers of nonuniform character. 2-Methylene-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxolane polymerization leads to polyester as the main structure, and to a lesser degree polyacetal structures. The chemical structures of the polymers were confirmed by NMR spectra and elemental analysis. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Structure and spectra of 1,3-dioxanes. II. Microwave spectrum, structural parameters, and ab initio calculations of 2-methyl-1,3-dioxane

The microwave spectra of five isotopomers with the ¹³C and ¹⁸O natural abundance isotopes of the 2-methyl-1,3-dioxane molecule (22–50 GHz) were studied. Rotational transitions of a and c types with 4 ≤ J ≤ 12 were identified. The rotational constants and the substitution r _s and effective r _o structural parameters of the molecule were determined. Ab initio calculations on 2-methyl-1,3-dioxane were performed with molecular structure optimization. The results of quantum-chemical calculations at different levels are compared with experimental data.

Simple and Efficient Procedure for the Synthesis of Novel 1,3-Diphenyl-2-azaphenalene Derivatives via One-Pot Multicomponent Reactions

A new, one-pot multicomponent reaction of two molecules of aromatic aldehydes with 2,7-naphthalenediol and ammonium hydrogen phosphate is described as an efficient and direct procedure for the preparation of novel 1,3-diphenyl-2-azaphenalene derivatives in a mixture of EtOH-H₂O (3:1) under reflux conditions.     

Atomic properties of selected biomolecules: quantum topological atom types of hydrogen,oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur occurring in natural amino acids and their derivatives

Molecular electron densities are generated at B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,p)//HF/6-31G(d) level for 57 molecules, including one conformation of each naturally occurring amino acid and smaller derived molecules. The electron densities are partitioned into atomic fragments according to the approach of quantum chemical topology (QCT). A set of 547 unique topological atoms is obtained, containing 421 hydrogens, 63 oxygens, 57 nitrogens and 6 sulfurs. Each atom is described by seven properties: volume, kinetic energy, monopole, dipole, quadrupole, octupole and hexadecapole moment. Cluster analysis groups atoms into atom types based on their similarity expressed in the discrete 7D space of atomic properties. Using a separation criterion we distinguish seven hydrogen, six oxygen, two nitrogen and six sulfur atom types.     

Reactions of Amidines with 5-Methylene-1,3-dioxolan-2-ones

The composition and yields of the products from the reaction of 4,4-dialkyl-5-methylene-1,3-dioxolan-2-ones with amidines depend on the structure of the initial amidine and on the reaction conditions. 2-Aminopyridines lead to 3-substituted 4-hydroxy-4-methyloxazolidin-2-ones and 4-methylene-oxazolidin-2-ones and also to sym-carbamides. 2-Amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidine leads to the corresponding 4-methyleneoxazolidin-2-one. 3-Aminothiazoles give linear oxourethanes and sym-carbamides.     

1,3-Thiazepines. 6. UV Spectroscopic and Theoretical Study of the Electronic Structures of 2-Aminotetrahydro- and 2-Iminotetrahydro-1,3-thiazepines

On the basis of studies of the electronic absorption spectra and quantum-chemical calculations of the energies and bond orders of a series of N-acetyl-N-aryl substituted 2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1,3-thiazepines and N-aryl substituted 2-iminohexahydro-1,3-thiazepines it has been concluded that the reason for the weak basicity of the ring nitrogen atom of the former is the acceptor properties of the amide carbonyl which obstructs the interaction of the unshared pair (USP) of this atom with the phenyl ring; in the case of the derivatives of hexahydroazepine the strengthening of the basic properties of the exocyclic nitrogen atom is associated with the conjugation of its USP with the -electrons of the benzene ring, which is strengthening by delocalisation of the USP of the sp³-hybridized ring nitrogen atom into the azomethine bond.     

Some Reactions of 2-Cyanomethyl-1,3-benzothiazole with Expected Biological Activity

New pyrido[2,1-b]benzothiazoles 2a,b, 3, 2-aminoquinoline 4, coumarin 5, cyclohexane 6a,b, and 2-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl) methylidene 7 derivatives have been prepared via the reaction of 2-cyanomethyl-1,3-benzothiazole 1 with α,β-unsaturated nitriles, α-chloro ethyl acetoacetate, 2-amino benzaldehyde, 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde, α,β-unsaturated ketone, and 2-aminobenzothiol hydrochloride. 2-Thiazole derivatives 9a,b were prepared from compound 1, which was converted to thioamide derivative 8 by reaction with HCl and thioacetamide, and cyclization of this thioamide with α-halogenated ketone gave 9a,b. Reaction of compound 1 and ethylacetate to afford ketonitrile 10. Treatment of 10 with hydrazine hydrate afforded aminopyrazole derivative 11. Substituted 4-aminothiophene 13 has been synthesized by reaction of compound 1 with p-chlorophenyl isothiocyanate. The resulting product 12 was then alkylated with phenacylbromide. Phenyl-2-yl-carbonylhydroximoyl-chloride 15 was prepared by treatment of the corresponding sulfonium bromide with sodium nitrite and hydrochloric acid in dioxane. Compound 15 reacted with α-(1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl) cinnamonitrile 14 afforded the isoxazole derivatives 16. Reaction of coumarin derivative 5 with anthranilamide, pyrimidine diamine, thiosemicarbazide, acetylacetone, and hydrazine hydrate yielded quinazoline-2-one 17, purine 18, triazole 19, 2-acetyl naphthalene-2-one 20, and N-aminoquinoline-2-one 21 derivatives.     

Reactions of diazoalkanes with unsaturated compounds 16. Catalytic reactions of diazomethane with 2-alkenyl-1,3-oxazolidines and 2-alkenyl-1,3-oxathiolanes

The influence of 1,3-oxazolidine and 1,3-oxathiolane fragments in substituted alkenes on the direction of their catalytic reaction with diazomethane has been investigated. The olefins bearing an oxazolidine substituent in the α- or γ-position and an oxathiolane substituent in the γ-position relative to the C=C bond react with diazomethane in the presence of Pd(acac)₂ selectively resulting in cyclopropanation products. The use of Cu(OTf)₂ does not result in cyclopropanation; however Cu(OTf)₂ catalyzes the reaction of diazomethane with 2-(alk-1-enyl)-1,3-oxathiolanes yielding 2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1,4-oxathiocines formed through the [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the intermediate sulfonium ylides.

One-pot synthesis of novel ether-linked diisoxazole derivatives via sequential O-propargylation and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition from 2-bromohomoallylic alcohols

Abstract

A simple and efficient, one-pot approach for the synthesis of ether-linked diisoxazole derivatives has been developed through sequential reactions, which includes O-propargylation of 2-bromohomoallylic alcohols with propargyl bromide in the presence of sodium hydride in THF, and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition by the addition of hydroximinoyl chlorides and triethylamine. This protocol provides some advantages such as high regioselectivity, easy operation and good product yields with a wide scope of substrates under mild conditions.     

Study on copolymerization behavior of 2-substituted 4-methylene-1,3-dioxolane with maleic anhydride and acrylonitrile

Copolymerizations of 4-methylene-2-styryl-1,3-dioxolane ( 1 ) and 4-methylene-2-methyl-2-styryl-1,3-dioxolane ( 2 ) with electron-deficient monomers, such as maleic anhydride (MA) and acrylonitrile (AN) were investigated. Only homopolymer of 1 was obtained from the copolymerization of 1 with MA in the presence or absence of AIBN. The copolymerization of 1 and AN with AIBN as initiator gave a copolymer consisting of three kinds of repeating units. Reaction of 2 with MA gave a crystalline product with and without AIBN present. A nine-membered ring structure is proposed for this product based on its IR, UV, proton and ¹³C-NMR spectra, as well as elemental analysis. No polymer was obtained from the copolymerization of 2 and AN with or without AIBN initiator. Based on the structures of the products obtained from the copolymerization, a number of polymerization mechanisms are proposed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
