Preparation and Characterization of N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminium Chlorides,N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdimines,and Lithium N,N′-Dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminates

We describe convenient preparations of N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminium chlorides, N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdimines, and lithium N,N′-dialkyl-1,3-propanedialdiminates in which the alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, or tert-butyl. For the dialdiminium salts, the N₂C₃ backbone is always in the trans-s-trans configuration. Three isomers are present in solution except for the tert-butyl compound, for which only two isomers are present; increasing the steric bulk of the N-alkyl substituents shifts the equilibrium away from the (Z,Z) isomer in favor of the (E,Z), and (E,E) isomers. For the neutral dialdimines, crystal structures show that the methyl and isopropyl compounds adopt the (E,Z) form, whereas the tert-butyl compound is in the (E,E) form. In aprotic solvents all four dialdimines (as well as the lithium dialdiminate salts) adopt cis-s-cis conformations in which there presumably is either an intramolecular hydrogen bond (or a lithium cation) between the two nitrogen atoms.     

N,N′-Diacylated imidazolidines and hexahydropyrimidines

A method for the preparation ofN-monoacyl imidazolidines and hexahydropyrimidines (as hydrochlorides) by interaction of monoacylated derivatives of ethylenediamine and trimethylenediamine with chloromethyl methyl ether was developed. Also a method for the preparation ofN,N-diacylimidazolidines and hexahydropyrimidines either by acylation of their monoacyl derivatives or by reaction of the correspondingN,N-diacyl alkylenediamine derivatives with dimethoxymethane, diacetoxymethane, 1,3,5-trioxane or chloromethyl methyl ether was designed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

The step dissociation constants of ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic-N,N′-dipropionic and ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetrapropionic acids

The step dissociation constants of ethylenediamine-N,N′-diacetic-N,N′-dipropionic and ethylenediamine-N,N,N′,N′-tetrapropionic acids at 298.15 K and ionic strengths of 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 (KNO₃) were determined potentiometrically. The results were extrapolated to zero ionic strength by the equation with one individual parameter. The thermodynamic constants of dissociation were calculated. The results are compared with the corresponding data on related compounds.     

A calorimetric study of N,N-diethyl-N′-furoylthiourea and N,N-diisobutyl-N′-furoylthiourea

The standard ( p^o =  0.1 MPa) molar enthalpies of combustion in oxygen, at T =  298.15 K, were measured by rotative bomb calorimetry for crystalline N, N -diethyl- N^′-furoylthiourea, (2-C₄H₃O)CONHCSN(C₂H₅)₂, HFET, and N, N -diisobutyl- N^′-furoylthiourea, (2-C₄H₃O)CONHCSN(iso-C₄H₉)₂, HFIB. The standard molar enthalpies of sublimation of both HFET and HFIB were measured by high-temperature Calvet microcalorimetry. These values were used to derive the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the compounds, in their crystalline and gaseous phases.

A simple, rapid, and efficient procedure for formylation of primary and secondary amines and alcohols using ethyl formate catalyzed with poly(N,N′-dichloro-N-ethyl-benzene-1,3-disulfonamide (PCBS), N,N,N′,N′-tetrachlorobenzene-1,3-disulfonamide (TCBDA), poly(N,N′-dibromo-N-ethyl-benzene-1,3-disulfonamide (PBBS) and also N,N,N′,N′-tetrabromobenzene-1,3-disulfonamide (TBBDA) was adopted.

Vibrational spectra of N,N-dimethyl/diethylaniline,N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl/tetraethyl-p-phenylenediamine and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyl/tetraethylbenzidine derivatives

The ground state and protonated state (quaternized salt) vibrational spectra (200–1800 cm⁻¹) of the title amines are reported for various ring and/or methyl deuterated derivatives. Complete assignments are proposed and compared to those established for the parent hydrocarbons, benzene and biphenyl, and for the parent primary amines, aniline, p-phenylenediamine and benzidine. The electronic distribution, N(n)→ring(π) charge-transfer character and inductive effects are characterized from a vibrational point of view. Finally changes in the vibrational and electronic conformation upon protonation of the nitrogen atom are discussed. These results provide a fundamental basis for the vibrational investigation of excited states and reactive transients of aromatic amines.     

GC-MS determination and optimization of extraction of N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-diphenylcarbamide from building materials

N,N’-dimethyl-N,N’-diphenylcarbamide (centralite) extracted from building materials was quantitated using ion trap GC-MS detection technique. Both linearity and standard deviation of the calibration curve were dependent on the conditions of the mass spectral detection. The most precise calibration has been achieved by quantification of a mass ion not participating in secondary reactions and which is produced via single fragmentation. The best recovery of centralite was obtained after either 30 min of normal extraction with toluene at 60 °C or 10 min of ultrasonic extraction with chloroform at room temperature. Using the latter method resorption processes might cause decrease in efficiency of the recovery at longer extraction time.

Thermal and FTIR spectral studies of N,N′-diphenylguanidine

Thermal decomposition of N,N??-diphenylguanidine (DPG) was investigated by simultaneous TG/DSC-FTIR techniques under nonisothermal conditions. Online FTIR measurements illustrate that aniline is a major product of DPG decomposition. The observation that the activation energy depends on the extent of conversion indicates that the DPG decomposition kinetics features multiple processes. The initial elimination of aniline from DPG involves two pathways because of the isomerization of DPG. Mass spectrometry and thin film chromatography suggest that there are two major intermediate products with the major one of C₂₁N₃H₁₇. The most probable kinetic model deduced through multivariate nonlinear regression method agrees well with the experimental data with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. The temperature-independent function of conversion f(??), activation energy E and the pre-exponential factor A of DPG decomposition was also established through model-fitting method in this research.

A fluorinated tetraphenylbenzidine derivative, N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (C36H26F2N2, Mr = 524.59) was synthesized via the palladiumcatalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig reaction of N,N′-diphenyl-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine with 2-fluoroiodobenzene (yield: 75%) and structurally characterized. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 9.820(7), b = 14.305(11), c = 10.233(8) , β = 108.973(9)o, V = 1359.3(18) 3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.282 g/cm3, μ(MoKα) = 0.084 mm-1, F(000) = 548, S = 1.018, the final R = 0.0439 and wR = 0.0928. It presents a linear centrosymmetric framework constituted by a linkage of biphenyl as a bridge and two fluorinated diphenylamine moieties.

Preparation and molecular structures of N,N-2,2′-dipicolyl- and N,N-3,3′-dipicolyldithiocarbamato metal complexes

New iron(III) and cobalt(III) complexes, [Fe(2,2′-dpdtc)₃], [Fe(3,3′-dpdtc)₃], [Co(2,2′-dpdtc)₃], and [Co(3,3′-dpdtc)₃] (dpdtc?=?dipicolyldithiocarbamate) have been synthesized and their molecular structures and spectroscopic properties determined. The 2,2′- and 3,3′-dpdtc ligands have four donors, S, S′, N, and N′. These complexes are insoluble in water, but soluble in acidic solution. Crystal structures of these metal complexes reveal that the central metal ions have MS₆ (M?=?Fe and Co) octahedral structures and all dipicolyl groups do not coordinate.     

Efficiency and Aging Comparison Between N,N′-Bis (3-methylphenyl)-N,N′-diphenylbenzidine (TPD) and N,N′-Di-[(1-naphthalenyl)-N,N′-diphenyl]-1,1′-biphenyl-4,4′-diamine (NPD) Based OLED Devices

In this paper we present and discuss experimental results to evaluate performances and aging behaviour of two Hole Transporting Material (HTM), TPD and NPD, in Organic Light Emitting Device (OLED) with structure: ITO/HTM/Alq3/Al. For each of these HTMs, devices with several thicknesses have been built, to measure and emphasize behaviours of material-geometry combinations. Electro-optical properties have been measured to estimate and compare brightness, power efficiency and aging decays.     

Study on the extraction of trivalent lanthanide ions with N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-diphenyl-malonamide and diglycolamide

The extraction of trivalent lanthanide (Ln(III) ions with two diamides: (1) N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-diphenyl-malonamide (MA) and (2) N,N′-dimethyl-N,N′-diphenyl-diglycolamide (DGA) from nitric acid solution was studied. Chemical bond properties of extracted complexes were investigated by UV-VIS and FT-IR spectroscopies. The chemical bond strength between Ln(III) ions and the ligands in extracted complexes was closely related with the magnitude of the distribution ratios of Ln(III) ions: the extracted complex having a stronger bond between Ln(III) ion and the ligand showed a higher magnitude of the distribution ratio of Ln(III) ion.     

Cyclopalladation of N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylisophthalthioamide

Summary N,N,N,N-Tetramethylisophthalthioamide (Hmpt) was cyclopalladated with PdCl₂ in hot dimethylsulphoxide to give [PdCl(mpt)]. The structure was determined by X-ray analysis. The thioamide is metallated at C(2) to act as an S528-01C528-02S tridentate anionic ligand. There is appreciable steric repulsion between the benzene ring H(4, 6) and the dimethylamino groups. The hydrogens and the methyl groups mutually deviate from the coordination plane in opposite directions. The stability of the fused 5,5-membered chelate ring formed by the S528-03C528-04S ligand seems to overcome the steric hindrance. Derivatives were prepared by replacement of the chloride ion with iodide, diethyldithiocarbamate, 4-tert-butylpyridine, or tri-n-butylphosphine, and characterized spectroscopically. The S528-05C528-06S-fused chelate ring was maintained in these derivatives.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Complexes of Lanthanide Picrates With N,N ′-Dimethyl-N,N ′-Diphenyl-1,2-PhenylenediOxydiacetamide

Lanthanide picrate complexes with the ligand N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-diphenyl-1,2-phenylenedioxydiacetamide (L) [Ln(Pic)₃L] (Ln=La,Gd,Er,Y) have been prepared in nonaqueous medium and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H spectra. The Gd(III) complex [Gd(Pic)₃L]·3CH₃CN is triclinic, space group P&1macr;, with a=14.292(1), b=14.967(2), c=16.571(2)Å, α=97.855(9), γ=113.070(9)°, ν=28706(6)ų, D _c=1.584g/cm³ for Z=2. The structure was refined to R=0.0318 based on 8409 observed reflections.     

N,N′ and N,O chelated phosphenium cations containing aminotroponiminate or aminotroponate units

New phosphenium cations stabilized by bidentate monoanionic N-isopropyl-2-(isopropylamino)troponiminate or 2-(isopropylamino)troponate units have been synthesized. These complexes were characterized by ³¹P, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopies, and the molecular structures were determined by X-ray crystallography. These data indicate the formation of N,N′- and N,O-chelate derivatives having three-coordinate phosphorous atoms included in planar heterobicycles. Moreover, computational studies support the presence of high delocalization of the positive charge into the π-conjugated carbon backbone and of the high-lying phosphorus lone-pair orbital.     

Reactions of N-Allyl- and N-Propargyltriflimides with N,N′-Disubstituted Carbodiimides

The alkylating activity of N-allyl- and N-propargyltriflimides toward N,N′-dicyclohexyl- and N,N′-diphenylcarbodiimides has been studied. Activation of the nitrogen atom by two electron-withdrawing trifluoromethanesulfonyl groups favors cleavage of the C–N bond in the absence of a catalyst with the formation of N-substituted unsaturated ureas.
