Diasteroselective Addition of Monoand Bis-Silylphosphines to Chiral Aldehydes

Abstract

The addition of silylphosphines to chiral aldehydes proceeds with high diastereoselectivity to give optically pure tertiary α -trimethylsiloxyalkylphosphines. The diastereomeric excesses of the addition products were achieved to 90–100%. The reaction of bis(trimethylsilyl)phenylphosphine with the acetonide of (R)-glyceraldehyde provides diastereomerically enriched tertiary bis(glyceryl)phosphines.     

Synthesis and Spatial Structure of the Derivatives of 2,5-Dioxo-3,3-Bis(Trifluoromethyl)-6,7-Benzo-1,4,2-and 2,5-Dioxo-4,4-Bis(Trifluoromethyl)-6,7-Benzo-1,3,2-Oxazaphosphepines

Abstract

Hexafluoroacetone imine easily interacts with compounds (I, R = OMe, OCH₂CF₂CHF₂, NEt₂, Ph) in two directions unlike hexafluoroacttone and gives 1,4,2-oxazaphosphepines (II) (pathway I) or 1,3,2-oxszaphosphepines (III) (pathway 2). The compound (II) (R = NEt₂) lightly hydrolyzes to yield the salt (IV). The structure of heterocycles II-IV) has been confirmed by X-ray analysis (see fig. I, II, R = OMe; fig. 2, IV). The detail structural peculiarities of the compounds am discussed.     

Influence of some lime-containing additives on the thermal behavior of urea

Urea is one of the main nitrogen fertilizers used in agriculture. But being well soluble in water, hardly 50% of its nitrogen is assimilated by plants. One possibility to eliminate this disadvantage is to use coating agents for modification of urea to obtain a controlled-realized fertilizer. The aim of this research was to study the influence of different lime-containing additives on the thermal behavior and decomposition kinetics of urea in oxidizing atmosphere. Commercial fertilizer-grade urea (46.4% N) and analytical-grade CaO, MgO, CaCO₃, MgCO₃ were used in the experiments. In addition, one Estonian limestone and one dolomite sample were used as additive or coating material. The experiments with a Setaram Setsys 1750 thermoanalyzer coupled to a Nicolet 380 FTIR Spectrometer by a heated transfer line were carried out under non-isothermal conditions up to 900 °C at the heating rate of 5 °C min^?1 and to calculate kinetic parameters, additionally, at 1, 2, and 10 °C min^?1 in the atmosphere containing 80% of Ar and 20% of O₂. The differential isoconversional method of Friedman was used to calculate the kinetic parameters. The results obtained indicate that thermooxidative decomposition of urea as well as the blends of urea with lime-containing materials and urea prills coated with limestone or dolomite powder follows a complex reaction mechanism.     

Enumeration of non-labile oxygen atoms in dissolved organic matter by use of 16O/18O exchange and Fourier transform ion-cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry

We report a simple approach for enumeration of non-labile oxygen atoms in individual molecules of dissolved organic matter (DOM), using acid-catalyzed ¹⁶O/¹⁸O exchange and ultrahigh-resolution Fourier-transform ion-cyclotron-resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). We found that by dissolving DOM in H₂ ¹⁸O at 95 °C for 20 days it is possible to replace all oxygen atoms of DOM molecules (excluding oxygen from ether groups) with ¹⁸O. The number of exchanges in each molecule can be determined using high-resolution FTICR. Using the proposed method we identified the number of non-labile oxygen atoms in 231 molecules composing DOM. Also, using a previously developed hydrogen–deuterium (H/D)-exchange approach we identified the number of labile hydrogen atoms in 450 individual molecular formulas. In addition, we observed that several backbone hydrogen atoms can be exchanged for deuterium under acidic conditions. The method can be used for structural and chemical characterization of individual DOM molecules, comparing different DOM samples, and investigation of biological pathways of DOM in the environment.

First π-electron transitions in finite polymethine chains

In the present article, polymethine and annulene electronic spectra are described in a unique way by means of the Pariser-Parr-Pople method. The analytical expressions were derived for the first π-electron transitions energies. The character of the annulene spectra, like the character of the open-chain spectra, was shown to be dependent on the ratio between electron and site numbers. The Dahne's triad theory and the existence of finite energy gap in polymethines are discussed. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Amidoalkylation of nonactivated terminal double bond in polyalkenes

Amidoalkylations of polybutenes and of ethene-propene copolymer, catalyzed by trifluoroacetic acid, result in 5,6-dihydro-4H,1,3-oxazino-substituted polyalkenes with the 2-position of the oxazine ring unsubstituted or occupied by a vinyl or a phenyl group. The vinyl-substituted dihydrooxazino polymers thus obtained readily add butylamine to the vinyl fragment yielding alkylamino-substituted derivatives. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
