Hydrolysis of 1,2-disubstituted imidazolines in aqueous media

The kinetics of hydrolysis of 1,2-disubstituted imidazolines in aqueous media was studied (pH 2.0—12.5, T = 25—90 °C) by UV spectroscopy. The hydrolysis products were identified. The introduction of a branched substituent into position 2 of the imidazoline ring increases the hydrolytic stability of the compounds. The effect of the pH on the hydrolysis rate of imidazolines is discussed.     

Quantum-Chemical Study of Methyl Phenyl Sulfide

Steric and electronic structure of the methyl phenyl sulfide molecule was studied by nonempirical quantum-chemical methods. The calculations were performed by the B3LYP and MP2 procedures with account taken of electronic correlation using extended 6-311++G(3d,p) basis sets. The use of a balanced method and basis set allowed us to avoid discrepancy between the experimental and calculated data reported by other authors. The results confirmed coplanar orientation of the CÄSÄC fragment and the benzene ring, which follows from most experimental studies.     

The effect of molecular planarity on crystal non‐centrosymmetry in benzyl­idene–aniline derivatives

In the title compound, N‐(2‐methoxy­phenyl)‐4‐nitro­benzyli­deneamine, C₁₄H₁₂N₂O₃, the two phenyl rings make a dihedral angle of 48.0 (2)° and the nitro group is at an angle of 6.5 (1)° with respect to its attached phenyl ring. In the crystal structure, mol­ecules are related as centrosymmetric pairs through π–π interactions and are further connected through strong C—H?O hydrogen bonds [C?O 3.4259 (17) Å and C—H?O 167°], forming molecular stacks along [100]. These stacks associate further through longer C—H?O interactions, forming two‐dimensional networks. In the c direction, there are only weak van der Waals interactions. The relationship between the molecular planarity and its centrosymmetry is also briefly described.     

A unique tautomer of 1‐n‐hexyl‐3‐phenyl‐1H‐pyrazol‐5‐ol

In the title compound, C₁₅H₂₀N₂O, the bond distances and angles are consistent with the presence of the hydroxy tautomer. This tautomer was unambiguously determined by the clear presence of a H atom bonded to oxygen, as well as the total absence of any residual electron density around the N atom in the heterocycle, thus precluding any possibility of desmotropism.     

Preparation and properties of azinium salts of the 2-pyrazoline series

Azinium salts containing pyrazoline fragments have been obtained by the reaction of 2-pyrazolines with aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes, acetylacetone, and acetoacetic ester in the presence of H₂SnCl₅ and HBF₄. Reactions of nucleophilic addition to the multiple bonds and also some cycloaddition reactions among the arylidene derivative have been studied. From the azinium salts of a series of -dicarbonyl compounds have been obtained previously unknown enamino carbonyl compounds of the 2-pyrazoline series.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 101–105, January, 1984.     

Stereochemistry of the iodocyclization of unsaturated alcohols

The corresponding tetrahydrofuran derivatives were obtained by iodination of , - unsaturated alcohols containing substituents attached to the -carbon atom. The effect of substituents on the stereochemistry of the products and the rate of iodination of the unsaturated alcohols were studied.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 32–34, January, 1981.     

Theoretical study on structures and stability of C4P isomers

The structures, energetics, spectroscopies, and stabilities of doublet C(4)P isomeric species are explored at the DFT/B3LYP, QCISD, and CCSD(T) (singlet-point) levels. A total of 12 minimum isomers and 27 interconversion transition states are located. At the CCSD(T)/6-311G(2df)//QCISD/6-311G(d)+ZPVE level, the lowest-lying isomer is a floppy CCCCP 1 (0.0 kcal/mol) mainly featuring a cumulenic structure |C=C=C=C=P*|, which differs much from the analogous C4N radical (|*C-C[triple bond]C-C[triple bond]N|). The quasi-linearity and the low bending mode of 1 are in contrast to the previous prediction. The second energetically followed isomer PC-cCCC 3 (14.9 kcal/mol) possesses a CCC ring-bonded to CP. The two low-lying isomers are separated by a high-energy ring-closure/open transition state (26.5 kcal/mol) and thus are very promising candidates for future laboratory and astrophysical detection. Furthermore, four high-energy isomers, that is, two bent isomers CCPCC 2 (68.4 kcal/mol) and CCPCC 2' (68.5 kcal/mol) and two cagelike species 10 (56.0 kcal/mol) and 11 (67.9 kcal/mol), are also stabilized by considerable barriers. The present work is the first detailed potential energy survey of CnP clusters and can provide useful information for the investigation of larger CnP radicals and for understanding the isomerism of P-doped C vaporization processes.     

Hydrogen bonding and π–π stacking in 6‐hydroxy­biochanin A monohydrate

In the lattice of the title compound (systematic name: 5,6,7‐trihydroxy‐4′‐meth­oxy­isoflavone monohydrate), C₁₆H₁₂O₆·H₂O, the isoflavone mol­ecules are linked into chains through R₄³(17) motifs composed via O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. Centrosymmetric R₄²(14) motifs assemble the chains into sheets. Hydrogen‐bonding and aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions lead to the formation of a three‐dimensional network structure.
