Kinetics and Mechanism of Monomolecular Heterolysis of Commercial Organohalogen Compounds: XXVIII. Effect of the Nature of the Verdazyl Indicator on Salt Effects in Dehydrobromination of 3-Bromocyclohexene in Nitrobenzene

The salt effect on the rate of dehydrobromination of 3-bromocyclohexene in PhNO2 depends on the nature of the verdazyl indicator. With triphenylverdazyl and its chloro and nitro derivatives in the presence of Et₄NClO₄, a normal salt effect is observed, in the presence of bromides, a superposition of normal and special salt effects, while in the presence of chlorides, a superposition of normal and special negative salt effects. With the dimethoxy verdazyl derivative, a normal salt effect is always observed.     

Simultaneous comparison of δ31P and 1JPN for the assignment of E/Z-stereochemistry of the phosphorus-nitrogen double bond in iminophosphines R-P=N-R′

 The analysis of ³¹P and ¹⁵N NMR data of a series of 40 iminophosphines R-P=N-R′ reveals that the E/Z-stereochemistry of the PN double bond can be predicted on the basis of a simultaneous comparison of the values of δ³¹P and ¹J_PN.

Meldrum's acid and its analogs

2-Substituted or 2,2-disubstituted 4,6-dioxo-1,3-dioxanes, which are analogs of Meldrum's acid and were obtained by reaction of malonic acid with acetic anhydride and the appropriate carbonyl compound in the presence of sulfuric acid, exist in solution preferably in a single form according to the PMR and ¹³C NMR spectral data. Fluctuation of the CH₂ group is not observed. The mass spectra are characteristic and are distinguished by splitting out of the carbonyl compound from the molecular ion or successive splitting out of CO₂ and ketene molecules. The Meldrum acid analogs do not affect plant growth but have a depressive effect on the central nervous system of animals and low toxicity.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1482–1486, November, 1975.     

Synthesis and polymerization of N-vinylindole

The reaction of indole with acetylene under pressure is investigated. It is shown that under the action of KOH in aqueous dioxane at 220° C, N-vinylindole C₁₀H₉N is formed in 66% yield, and that this compound undergoes free radical and cationic polymerization.
