Electronic structure and conformational flexibility of 1,4-dihydroazines and their 4-ylide derivatives

The conformational flexibility of 1,4-dihydropyridine, 1,4-dihydropyrimidine, 1,4-dihydropyridazine, 1,4-dihydro-1,3,5-triazine, and their 4-oxo, imino, and methylene derivatives was studied by the semiempirical quantum-chemical AM1 method. It was demonstrated that the replacement of the methylene group in the dihydroazine ring by the exocyclic double bond results only in an increase in the rigidity of the heterocycle rather than leading to a loss of its conformational flexibility. It was suggested that nonplanar conformations of rings in ylide derivatives are stabilized by the nonaromatic cyclic -system. Introduction of the exocyclic double bond does not cause a substantial change in the -electronic structure of the heterocycle. The aromaticity indicesI ₆ andI ₆() were calculated. The correlation between these indices and a change in the energy upon bending of the heterocycle was established.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Mechanistic approaches to asymmetric synthesis of aziridines from guanidinium ylides and aryl aldehydes

To approach more realistic mechanisms for asymmetric aziridine synthesis from guanidinium ylides and aryl aldehydes, reactions were systematically carried out by using a variety of p-substituted benzaldehydes under modified conditions. Two kinds of reaction mechanisms controlled by the nature of the p-substituents of aryl aldehydes is proposed for the two-steps aziridine synthesis composed of a C-C bond formation by nucleophilic addition of guanidinium ylides to aryl aldehydes (step 1) and the fragmentation of intermediate adducts to aziridine products by intramolecular nucleophilic substitution (step 2). A S_Ni-like mechanism via cationic-like transition state is proposed for step 2 in the asymmetric synthesis using EDG-substituted benzaldehydes, whereas with EWG-substituted benzaldehydes, a S_N2-like mechanism is proposed. Hammett analysis, based on the diastereomeric ratio in the aziridine products, is consistent with the proposed rate-determining steps in these two mechanisms. A second Hammett analysis, based on the enantiomeric ratio of the aziridine products, clearly reveals the difference in the susceptibilities to the electronic substituents effect between step 1 and step 2.

Kristallstrukturanalyse von Ammonium-catena-polyphosphat II mit Röntgenpulvertechniken

Crystal Structure Determination of Ammonium catena-Polyphosphate II by X-Ray Powder Techniques The first structure determination of one of the five modifications of ammonium-catena-polyphosphate was performed using X-ray powder diffraction data. (NH₄PO₃)_nII is formed by phase transformation of (NH₄PO₃)_nI which on its part is obtained by condensation of NH₄H₂PO₄ at 200°C in presence of urea. Modification II crystallizes in P2₁2₁2₁ (a = 1 207.9(1), b = 648.87(8), c = 426.20(4) pm; Z = 4; 291 observed reflections; R(p) = 0.089; R(wp) = 0.111; R(I, hkl) = 0.088). The chain-anion runs parallel to the shortest axis, the period of identity is two. The ammonium ion is surrounded by a distorted tetrahedron of oxygen atoms (N? O-distances range from 285 to 292 pm, hydrogen bonds of middle strength).     

A Rapid and Convenient Synthesis of Derivatives of Imidazoles under Microwave Irradiation

An efficient and a quick microwave‐assisted synthesis of benzimidazoles and trisubstituted imidazoles was developed. Three benzimidazoles were obtained as a result of the condensation of 1,2‐phenylenediamine with carboxylic acids and acetoacetic ester without catalyst. A series of trisubstituted imidazoles were synthesized by condensation of benzil, aromatic aldehyde and ammonium acetate in the presence of glacial acetic acid.     

Magnetic resonance study on lamellar phases of ammonium perfluorooctanoate

The aggregation properties of ammonium perfluorooctanoate (NH₄-PFO) in concentrated aqueous phases have been investigated by magnetic resonance techniques and have been compared with the aggregation properties in dilute solutions. Magnetic resonance methods indicated that NH₄-PFO—water systems with surfactant concentrations below 45% (w/w) behaved as isotropic purely micellar solutions in the temperature range 285–340 K. For higher concentrations the system exhibited a rather complex structure, having both isotropic and anisotropic components. The nematic nature of the anisotropic fraction was demonstrated by ¹⁹F NMR studies. The ¹⁹F NMR and EPR of nitroxides (TempTMA⁺, 5- and 16-DXSA) inserted as paramagnetic probes into the concentrated NH₄-PFO—water systems allowed us to establish that the lamellar phase could be mechanically oriented between quartz slides. The EPR investigation also gave details concerning the dynamics of both the oriented and non-oriented structures.     

Fraktionierte Kristallisation von Ammonium- und Magnesiumdoppelnitraten der Ceriterden; Bestimmung der Trennfaktoren und Vergleich der Trennwirkung

Summary The Separation Factors for Pr/La, Nd/Pr, and Sm/Nd, characterizing the crystallization of ammonium and magnesium double nitrates under practical conditions, were determined analytically and are discussed. They confirm that La and Pr can be separated better by fractional crystallization of ammonium double nitrates, whereas in the presence of Sm the magnesium double nitrates are preferable.

Zur Struktur und Reaktivität des Diammoniumhexafluoromanganats(IV)

About the Structure and Reactivity of Diammonium Hexafluoromanganate(IV) Electrolytic oxidation of an aqueous suspension of MnF₂ containing NH₄F, and subsequent crystallization in 40% HF yields yellow crystals of (NH₄)₂MnF₆. It crystallizes in the hexagonal K₂MnF₆ type structure with the space group P6₃mc and a = 5.903; c = 9.565 Å; Z = 2. With in situ powder diffraction studies it is shown, that (NH₄)₂MnF₆ is gradually reduced in a NH₃ atmosphere between 30 and 230 °C to afford (NH₄)₃MnF₆, (NH₄)₂MnF₅, and finally NH₄MnF₃. (NH₄)₃MnF₆, thereby, forms a hitherto unknown cubic (a = 9.082 Å) high temperature modification with the cryolite type structure. Under N₂ the thermal decomposition of (NH₄)₂MnF₆ proceeds via NH₄MnF₄ to yield MnF₂.
