1,3-Dipolare Cycloadditionen eines Carbonyl-ylids mit 1,3-Thiazol-5(4H)-thionen und Thioketonen

1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions of a Carhonyl-ylide with 1,3-Thiazole-5(4H)-thiones and Thioketones Inp-xylene at 150°, 3-phenyloxirane-2,2-dicarbonitrile ( 4b ) and 2-phenyl-3-thia-1-azaspiro[4.4]non-1-ene-4-thione ( 1a ) gave the three 1:1 adduets trans- 3a , cis- 3a , and 13a in 61, 21, and 3% yield, respectively (Scheme 3). The stereoisomers trans- 3a and cis- 3a are the products of a regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of carbonylylide 2b , generated thermally by an electrocyclic ring opening of 4b (Scheme 6), and the C?S group of 1a . Surprisingly, 13a proved not to be a regioisomeric cycloadduct of 1a and 2b , but an isomer formed via cleavage of the O? C(3) bond of the oxirane 4b . A reaction mechanism rationalizing the formation of 13a is proposed in Scheme 6. Analogous results were obtained from the reaction of 4b and 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-thiazole-5 (4H)-thione ( 1b , Scheme 3). The thermolysis of 4b in p-xylene at 130° in the presence of adamantine–thione ( 10 ) led to two isomeric 1:1 adducts 15 and 16 in a ratio of ca. 2:1, however, in low yield (Scheme 4). Most likely the products are again formed viathe two competing reaction mechanisms depicted in Scheme 6. The analogous reactions of 4b with 2,2,4,4-tetramethylcyclobutane-1,3-thione ( 11 ) and 9H-xanthene-9-thione ( 12 ) yielded a single 1:1 adduct in each case (Schemes). In the former case, spirocyclic 1,3-oxathiolane 17 , the product of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with 2a corresponding to 3a , was isolated in only 11 % yield. It is remarkable that no 2:1 adduct was formed even in the presence of an excess of 4b. In contrast, 4b and 12 reacted smoothly to give 18 in 81 % yield; no cycloadduct of the carbonylylide 2a could be detected. The structures of cis- 3a , 13a , 15 , and 18 , as well as the structure of 14 , which is a derivative of trans- 3a , have been established by X-ray crystallography (Figs. 1–3, Table).     

Umsetzung von 3-Amino-2H-azirinen mit Salicylohydrazid

Reaction of 3-Amino-2H-azirines with Salicylohydrazide 3-Amino-2H-azirines 1a–g react with salicylohydrazide ( 7 ) in MeCN at 80° to give 2H, 5H-1,2,4-triazines 10 , 1,3,4-oxadiazoles 12 and, in the case of 1d , 1,2,4-triazin-6-one 11a (Scheme 3). The precursor of these heterocycles, the amidrazone of type 9 , except for 9c and 9g , which could not be isolated, has been found as the main product after reaction of 1 and 7 in MeCN at room temperature. 3-(N-Methyl-N-phenylamino)-2-phenyl-2H-azirin ( 1g ) reacts with 7 to give mainly the aromatic triazines 15b₁ and 15b₂ . In this case, two unexpected by-products, 16 and salicylamide ( 17 ), occurred, probably by disproportionation of a 1:1 adduct from 1g and 7 (Scheme 8). Oxidation of 10f with DDQ leads to the triazine 15a . The structure of 10c, 11a, 12c, 13 (by-product in the reaction of 1b and 7 ), the N′-phenylureido derivative 14 of 9d (Scheme 4) as well as 15b₂ has been established by X-ray crystallography. The ratio of 10/12 as a function of substitution pattern in 1 and solvent has been investigated (Tables 1, 3, 4, and 7). A mechanism for the formation of 10 and 12 is proposed in Scheme 7.

5,6,7,8-Tetrahydro-4H-1,2,5-oxadiazocin-6-ones, Ring Enlargement Products from a 3-Isoxazolidinone and 3-Amino-2H-azirines 3-Dimethylamino-2H-azirines 1 and 4,4-dimethyl-3-isoxazolidinone ( 7 ) undergo already at room temperature a ring enlargement reaction to yield 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-1,2,5-oxadiazocines of type 8 . The structure of 8a has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography. The conformation of the eight-membered ring with a trans-amide group is of particular interest (Fig. 1 and 2).     

Investigation of argon ion bombarded RexSi1-x thin film composites by XPS, SEM and AES

The electronic structure of argon ion bombarded Re_xSi_1-x films (～ 100 nm) were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Argon ion bombardment leads to preferential sputtering of the silicon atoms and produces an subsurface rhenium enrichment. Changes in the core level binding energies and in the valence band structure have been studied as the rhenium concentration in the composites varies between 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 through the metal-semiconductor transition at x ≈ 0.32. The data of the multiplex spectra were subjected to factor analysis in order to determine the relevant components of the ion bombarded metal-silicon system. Four principal components are extracted and are proposed as the pure elements, a rhenium-rich phase and a component near the ReSi₂ stoichiometry. Complementary investigations by SEM and AES provide further proof of the phase assignment in the rhenium-rich component. The silicon-rich component being in composition close to the metal-semiconductor transition can be correlated to the ReSi₂ compound.     

Photochemische Cycloadditionen von 3-phenyl-2h-azirinen mit Aldehyden. 31. Mitteilung über Photoreaktionen

Experiments concerning the photochemical condensation of 3-phenyl-2H-azirines 1 with aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes to 3-oxazolines 4 are fully described (cf. scheme 1 ). Photochemically nitrile methylides of type 2 are first formed, which then very quickly react thermally with the aldehydes in a regiospecific manner to give the 3-oxazolines 4 . Azirines monosubstituted in position 2 (l b and 1 c ) give mixtures of cis, trans-oxazoline isomers, in which the cis isomer predominates. The stereoselectivity of the cycloaddition reaction can be rationalized by a simple model (scheme 10). The stereoisomeric 3-oxazolines 4 are distinguishable in the NMR. spectra by the large homoallylic coupling constants between the H atoms on C(2) and C(5).     

The Protonation and Deprotonation Equilibria of Hypericin Revisited

Summary.  The protonation and deprotonation behaviour and the assignment of pK _a values of hypericin are reviewed and discussed. Three experiments (electrospray MS, ¹H NMR, acid–base indicator equilibria) provided additional evidences for the assignment of pK _a values of −5 and −6 to mono- and diprotonation at the carbonyl groups of hypericin, of pK _a = 2 to monodeprotonation at the bay-region, and of pK _a = 11 to dideprotonation at the bay- and peri-regions.

Diphosphan-tetraphenylnickelacyclopentadien

Reaction of 1,2-bis(diorganophosphino)ethanenickel dibromide (I) with 1,2,3,4-tetraphenyl-1,4-dilithiumbutadiene (II) at ?30°C yields diphosphannickelacyclopentadiene (III) which at elevated temperatures isomerizes to diphosphanecyclobutadienenickel(0) (IV). The thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of the rearrangement were determined. The structural and conformational analyses of III were carried out by means of ¹³C NMR, ³¹P NMR and Raman spectroscopy. The reactions of III and IV with CH₃COOH, CO, RCCR and RNCNR have been axamined and the observed reactivities III ? IV are discussed.     

Tris(trifluoromethyl)borane carbonyl, (CF3)3BCO-synthesis,physical, chemical and spectroscopic properties,gas phase,and solid state structure

Tris(trifluoromethyl)borane carbonyl, (CF(3))(3)BCO, is obtained in high yield by the solvolysis of K[B(CF(3))(4)] in concentrated sulfuric acid. The in situ hydrolysis of a single bonded CF(3) group is found to be a simple, unprecedented route to a new borane carbonyl. The related, thermally unstable borane carbonyl, (C(6)F(5))(3)BCO, is synthesized for comparison purposes by the isolation of (C(6)F(5))(3)B in a matrix of solid CO at 16 K and subsequent evaporation of excess CO at 40 K. The colorless liquid and vapor of (CF(3))(3)BCO decomposes slowly at room temperature. In the gas phase t(1/2) is found to be 45 min. In the presence of a large excess of (13)CO, the carbonyl substituent at boron undergoes exchange, which follows a first-order rate law. Its temperature dependence yields an activation energy (E(A)) of 112 kJ mol(-)(1). Low-pressure flash thermolysis of (CF(3))(3)BCO with subsequent isolation of the products in low-temperature matrixes, indicates a lower thermal stability of the (CF(3))(3)B fragment, than is found for (CF(3))(3)BCO. Toward nucleophiles (CF(3))(3)BCO reacts in two different ways: Depending on the nucleophilicity of the reagent and the stability of the adducts formed, nucleophilic substitution of CO or nucleophilic addition to the C atom of the carbonyl group are observed. A number of examples for both reaction types are presented in an overview. The molecular structure of (CF(3))(3)BCO in the gas phase is obtained by a combined microwave-electron diffraction analysis and in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecule possesses C(3) symmetry, since the three CF(3) groups are rotated off the two possible positions required for C(3)(v)() symmetry. All bond parameters, determined in the gas phase or in the solid state, are within their standard deviations in fair agreement, except for internuclear distances most noticeably the B-CO bond lengths, which is 1.69(2) A in the solid state and 1.617(12) A in the gas phase. A corresponding shift of nu(CO) from 2267 cm(-)(1) in the solid state to 2251 cm(-)(1) in the gas phase is noted in the vibrational spectra. The structural and vibrational study is supported by DFT calculations, which provide, in addition to the equilibrium structure, confirmation of experimental vibrational wavenumbers, IR-band intensities, atomic charge distribution, the dipole moment, the B-CO bond energy, and energies for the elimination of CF(2) from (CF(3))(x)()BF(3)(-)(x)(), x = 1-3. In the vibrational analysis 21 of the expected 26 fundamentals are observed experimentally. The (11)B-, (13)C-, and (19)F-NMR data, as well as the structural parameters of (CF(3))(3)BCO, are compared with those of related compounds.
