Reactions of 3-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones with nitrogen-containing nucleophiles

Condensation of 3-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones with hydroxylamine and hydrazine hydrate gave the corresponding oximes, hydrazones, and azines. Reductive amination of the title compounds in the presence of sodium triacetoxyhydridoborate led to the formation of 3-substituted 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-amines which were converted into the corresponding dihydrochlorides by treatment with dry hydrogen chloride. Treatment of 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl derivatives with HCl under analogous conditions was accompanied by elimination of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group to produce 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-amine dihydrochlorides.     

Formation of Isomeric 3-Azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes in a Reaction of 1-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzene with Sodium Borohydride,Formaldehyde, and Methylamine

Anionic hydride adduct of 1-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2,4-dinitrobenzene was brought into a double Mannich condensation with formaldehyde and methylamine to furnish a mixture of isomeric 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes: 3-methyl-6-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-1,5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-ene and 3-methyl-6,6-ethylenedioxy-1,7-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane.

3- Substituted 3- Azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan- 9- ols and Their Transformations Involving the Hydroxy Group

The reduction of 3-benzyl- and 3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan-9-ones with sodium tetrahydridoborate gave the corresponding alcohols as mixtures of á- and ä-epimers at a ratio of 2: 3. The resulting alcohols reacted with acetyl chloride and methanesulfonyl chloride at the hydroxy group to form O-acetyl and O-methylsulfonyl derivatives. Reactions of the latter with potassium iodide and sodium azide afforded 3-substituted 9-iodo(azido)-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes. 9-Iodo derivatives were treated with triphenylphosphine to obtain triphenylphosphonium salts which were converted into the corresponding phosphonium ylides by the action of sodium methoxide in methanol, and the ylides readily reacted with benzaldehyde according to Wittig.

Acceptor-donor-acceptor conjugated oligomers based on diketopyrrolopyrrole and thienoacenes with four,five and six rings for organic thin-film transistors

Three acceptor-donor-acceptor(A-D-A) conjugated oligomers, i.e., O1, O2 and O3, have been synthesized using diketopyrrolopyrrole(DPP) as an electron-acceptor unit, and naphtho[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene(NDT), anthra[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene(ADT) or dithieno[3,2-b:3',2'-b']naphtho[1,2-b:5,6-b']dithiophene(DTNDT) as electron-donor unit. These oligomers exhibit identical highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital(LUMO) energy levels, which were ca.-5.1 and-3.3 eV, respectively. Upon thermal annealing, all three oligomers formed thin films with ordered microstructures, and their organic thin film transistors(OTFTs) exhibited p-type transport behavior. The mobility was increased with an extension of the size of D-units. O3 showed the best OTFT performance with the mobility of up to 0.20 cm~2·V~(-1)·s~(-1). The film quality of O3 was improved by adding 1 wt% poly(methylmethacrylate)(PMMA). In consequence, the mobility of the O3-based devices was further enhanced to 0.30 cm~2·V~(-1)·s~(-1).
