Synthesis and properties of 1-(2-bromoethyl)-, 1-(2-alkoxyethyl)- and 1-(2-dialkylaminoethyl)2-alkylpyrroles

The reaction of 3-chloropropenyl alkyl ketones or 2,3-dichloropropyl alkyl ketones with 2-substituted ethylamine derivatives leads to the formation of the hitherto unknown 1-(2-R-ethyl)-2-alkylpyrroles.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1047–1049, August, 1990.     

Synthesis of 6-Methyl-4-(1-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-2-(2-cyclohexen-1-yl)- and 6-Methyl-4-(1-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)-2-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)anilines

Alkenylation of 6-methyl-2-(2-cyclohexen-1-yl)- and 2-(1-cyclohexen-1-yl)anilines with piperylene in the presence of AlCl₃ and transformation of the resulting cyclohexenylanilines into carbazole structures were studied.__________Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Khimii, Vol. 78, No. 3, 2005, pp. 441–443.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Gataullin, Ishberdina, Sotnikov, Abdrakhmanov.     

1-(2′-triethylsilylethyl)-, 1-(2′-triethylsilylvinyl)-, and 1′-(2′-triethylsilylethynyl)-silatranes

Conclusions The reaction of 2-triethylsilyl-substituted ethyl-, vinyl-, and ethynyltrialkoxysilanes with triethanolamine gave 1-substituted silatranes possessing neurotropic activity.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2611–2613, November, 1984.     

Palladium-catalyzed allylic oxidation of 1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-2-propene and 1-(trimethylsilyl)-1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)-2-propene

The course of palladium-catalyzed oxidation of a terminal alkene by t-BuOOH or by O₂/H₂O is greatly modified when the allylic carbon bears a p-toluenesulfonyl substituent, and allylic oxidation results. Mechanistic explanations of this observation are proposed.     

A theoretical study on 1-(thiophen-2-yl-methyl)-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole

The molecular geometry and vibrational frequencies of 1-(thiophen-2-yl-methyl)-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole (C(16)H(12)N(2)S(2)) in the ground state has been calculated using the Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (B3LYP) with 6-31G(d) basis set. The optimized geometric bond lengths and bond angles obtained by using HF and DFT (B3LYP) show the best agreement with the experimental data. Comparison of the observed fundamental vibrational frequencies of 1-(thiophen-2-yl-methyl)-2-(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole (C(16)H(12)N(2)S(2)) and calculated results by density functional B3LYP and Hartree-Fock methods indicate that B3LYP is superior to the scaled Hartree-Fock approach for molecular vibrational problems.
