Reactions of 4-Hydroxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-2-styryl-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones with Nucleophiles

4-Hydroxy-5-methyl(phenyl)-2-styryl-6H-1,3-oxazin-6-ones react with hydrazine and phenylhydrazine to give the corresponding 3,5-substituted triazoles. Treatment of the title compounds with ethanol and methanol leads to formation of N-cinnamoylmalonamates. The structure of the products was confirmed by the IR and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra.

Boron chelate complexes with 4-[N-(R-pyrid-2-yl)carbamoyl]-3-amino-2-cyanobuten-2-ic acid esters (codimers of N-(R-pyrid-2-yl)amides and the ethyl ester of cyanoacetic acid)

Mono- and binuclear boron chelates have been synthesized by the action of butylthiodibutylborane on the ethyl esters of 4-[N-(R-pyrid-2-yl)carbamoyl]-3-amino-2-cyanobuten-2-ic acids (codimers of N-(R-pyrid-2-yl) amides and the ethyl ester of cyanoacetic acid). Complexes of this type can exist in solution in the form of two tautomers: acetamide acid derivatives or the corresponding ketene N,O-acetals.N. D.

S1←S0 Vibronic spectra and the structure of acetyl fluoride-h3 and acetyl fluoride-d3 molecules

UV absorption spectra of acetyl fluoride-h₃ and -d₃ (CH₃COF and CD₃COF) molecules in the region of S₁S₀ electronic transitions are investigated. The origins (0⁰ ₀ or 14^0± ₀) of these transitions are observed at 39912 and 39904 cm^–1, respectively, and some of the fundamental frequencies of these molecules in the s₀ and S₁ states are determined. In particular, the systems of torsion and inversion (out-of-plane C=O vibrations) energy levels are studied. The geometric parameters of an acetyl fluoride-h₃ molecule in the S₁ state are estimated by the theoretical simulation of the rotational contours of the 0⁰ ₀ (14^0± ₀) band. These data are used to evaluate the potential barriers to internal rotation in the S₀ and S₁ states, which were found to be 360 and 560 cm^–1 for acetyl fluoride-h₃ and 380 and 770 cm^–1 for acetyl fluoride-d₃, respectively, as well as the potential barriers to inversion in the S₁ states, which were found to be 2090 and 2370 cm^–1 for acetyl fluoride-h₃ and acetyl fluoride-d₃, respectively.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Crystal and molecular structure of 5-ethyl-5,10-dihydrido-10,10-diphenylphenazasiline

The structure of 5-ethyl-5,10-dihydro-10,10-diphenylphenazasiline has been determined from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. The compound in the monoclinic space group P2₁/b with a 10.782(5), b 22.642(9), c 8.830(4) Å and γ 74°41′(2). The observed and calculated densities (Z = 4) are 1.22 and 1.21 g cm^-3, respectively. Anisotropic(Si, N, C)-isotropic block-diagonal least squares refinement gave a conventional R factor of 3.9% for 1871 reflections with I>2σ(I). The central six-membered ring of the tricyclic system adopts a boat conformation; the dihedral angle between the benzo-group planes is 157.3°. The CSiC angle in the heterocycle is 101.1(1)°; the mean SiC bond length is 1.850(2) Å (in the cycle) and 1.862(2) Å (with Ph group). The nitrogen atom is displaced 0.05 Å from the plane of the adjacent carbon atoms; the sum of the angle about N is 359.7°.
