Synthese und Konfiguration von Methylestern der diastereomeren (±)-3-Amino-2,3-diarylpropansäuren,der (±)-3-Amino-2,3-diarylpropanole und ihrer Derivate

Zusammenfassung Durch Umsetzung von Hydramiden mit am aromatischen Ring m,p-dialkoxysubstituierten Arylessigsäureestern in Gegenwart von wasserfr. AlCl₃ entstehen Gemische aus Estern der (±)-erythro- und (±)-threo-3-Amino-2,3-diarylpropansäuren. Bei der Umsetzung von Piperonalhydramid mit dem Methylester der Homoveratrumsäure konnte lediglich daserythro-Diastereomere isoliert werden.Die diastereomeren Ester wurden zu den jeweiligen (±)-erythro- und (±)-threo-3-Amino-2,3-diaryl-1-propanolen reduziert, die als N,O-Dibenzoylderivate charakterisiert wurden. Ihre relativen Konfigurationen und die der zugehörigen Ester wurden auf Grund der IR-Spektren der diastereomeren Aminopropanole bestimmt. Die NMR-Spektren eines Diastereomerenpaares von Aminopropanolen bestätigen die ihnen chemisch zugeordneten Konfigurationen und ermöglichen den Nachweis auch ihrer bevorzugten Konformationen.

Synthesis and configuration of methyl esters of the diastereomeric (±)-3-amino-2,3-diarylpropanoic acids, the (±)-3-amino-2,3-diaryl-1-propanols and their derivatives

Reaction of hydramides with m,p-dialkoxysubstituted arylacetates in the presence of anhydrous AlCl₃ generally leads to mixtures of the esters of the (±)-erythro- and (±)-threo-3-amino-2,3-diarylpropanoic acids. However, in the reaction of piperonal hydramide with methyl homoveratrate, only the correspondingerythro-diastereomer was obtained.Reduction of the diastereomeric esters gives the corresponding (±)-erythro- and (±)-threo-3-amino-2,3-diaryl-1-propanols, which can be characterized as N,O-dibenzoyl derivatives. Relative configurations of both alcohols and esters were determined by means of their IR spectra. Configurations were confirmed for one pair of diastereomeric amino alcohols by means of NMR spectra and preferred conformations deduced.

     

Determination of traces of perchlorate in chlorate solutions

Perchlorate present in chlorate solutions is determined gravimetrically as tetraphenylphosphonium perchlorate after destruction of chlorate by addition of hydrochloric acid. Interference of Fe(III) and Cr(III) is prevented by complexing with tarartic acid. Replicate analyses of a sodium chlorate solution containing NaClO(3), NaCl, Na(2)Cr(2)O(7), and 390 ppm NaClO(4) showed 405 ppm NaClO(4) (standard deviation 19 ppm, 12 results).

Estimation of allyl alcohol by chloramine-T

A simple but rapid and accurate method for the estimation of allyl in aqueous solution has been developed, based on its oxidation with chloramine-T at room temperature, in 0.5-1.0M hydrochloric acid medium. The reaction involves a two-electron change. The effect of such variables such as pH of the medium, presence of foreign ions and perchloric or sulphuric acid on the rate of oxidation is discussed.     

NMR and stereochemical studies of non aromatic heterocyclic compounds—II : 13C and 31P NMR of 2-methoxy-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinanes

¹³C and ³¹P chemical shift data for eight 2-methoxy-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinanes are reported. Examination of pairs of geometrical isomers, which differ only in the orientation of the OMe substituent on P^III, have shown that both the ³¹P and the ¹³C signals of C_4,6 atoms appear 3–4 ppm at higher field when the OMe is axial compared with the equatorial isomer. This observation can be associated with the 1–3 syn diaxial interaction between the phosphorus axial substituent and the axial hydrogens on C_4,6 and should thus constitute, in the future, a supplementary tool for the structural analysis of this kind of compound. Important long range δ effects were observed both on ¹³C and especially on ³¹P chemical shifts. It is suggested that the high field δ_e effects could reflect a direct stereoelectronic interaction between the P atom and the cyclic C-5 atom. This interpretation is supported by a study of the ³¹P…¹³C coupling constants and their stereochemical dependence.     

Extension de la méthode du «logarithme limite» [1] pour la détermination de la composition et de la constante de stabilité des complexes

A study of the conditions of applicability to weak complexes of the relation log x = v log V + log (β_v,cC^c) = f(logV), where V and C are variable and constant total concentrations of the constituants of the complexe, shows that for conditions other than C ? V, another function φ(log V) accounts better for the formation equilibrium of the complexe. From f(log V) and φ (log V) a relation t(log V) is derived whose simple analysis permits the determination of the composition and the stability constant of weak complexes. Applications are given to 1:1, 1:2, 2:2 composition.

Some symmetry-induced isotope effects in the kinetics of recombination reactions

Symmetry-induced isotope effects in recombination and collision-induced dissociation reactions are discussed. Progress on understanding the anomalous isotope effects in ozone is reviewed. Then, calculations are performed for the simpler reaction xNe+yNe+H<-->xNeyNe+H, where x and y label either identical or different isotopes. The atomic masses in the model are chosen so that symmetry is the only difference between the systems. Starting from a single potential energy surface, the properties of the bound, quasibound, and continuum states of the neon dimer are calculated. Then, the vibration rotation infinite order sudden approximation is used to calculate cross sections for all possible inelastic and dissociative processes. A rate constant matrix that exactly satisfies detailed balance is constructed. It allows recombination to occur both via direct three-body collisions and via tunneling into the quasibound states of the energy transfer mechanism. The eigenvalue rate coefficients are determined. Significant isotope effects are clearly found, and their behavior depends on the pressure, temperature, and mechanism of the reaction. Both spin statistics and symmetry breaking produce isotope effects. Under most conditions the breaking of symmetry enhances the rates, but a wide spectrum of effects is observed; they range from isotope effects with a normal mass dependence to huge, mass-independent isotope effects to cancellation and even to reversal of the isotope effects. This is the first calculation of symmetry-induced isotope effects in recombination rates from first principles. The relevance of the present effects to ozone recombination is discussed.
