Trimethylsilyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles—new useful synthons for the synthesis of various 2,5-disubstituted-1,3,4-oxadiazoles

The reactivity of 2-aryl-5-trimethylsilyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles toward different types of electrophiles was investigated. These silanes readily react with chlorine, bromine, aliphatic acyl chlorides, 2-nitrobenzenesulfenyl chloride, and some reactive isocyanates affording the corresponding substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles. The reactions with carbonyl compounds proceed only in the presence of F⁻ anions.     

Effect of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide micelles on the ionic equilibrium and the reactivity of hydrogen peroxide toward electrophilic substrates

The acid-base equilibrium of hydrogen peroxide in aqueous solutions of CTAB and the reactivity of the peroxide anion toward 4-nitrophenyl diethylphosphate and 4-toluenesulfonate were studied. It was shown that the acid ionization rate constant of hydrogen peroxide is increased by three times with increase in the CTAB concentration from 0 to 0.03 M. This makes it possible to realize the decomposition of the substrates by their reaction with the peroxide anion at lower pH values in micellar cationic systems than in aqueous solutions. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 44, No. 2, pp. 83–89, March–April, 2008.     

Acid-catalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution: experimental and theoretical exploration of a multistep mechanism

The mechanism for the acid-mediated substitution of a phenolic hydroxyl group with a sulfur nucleophile has been investigated by a combination of experimental and theoretical methods. We conclude that the mechanism is distinctively different in nonpolar solvents (i.e., toluene) compared with polar solvents. The cationic mechanism, proposed for the reaction in polar solvents, is not feasible and the reaction instead proceeds through a multistep mechanism in which the acid (pTsOH) mediates the proton shuffling. From DFT calculations, we found a rate-determining transition state with protonation of the hydroxyl group to generate free water and a tight ion pair between a cationic protonated naphthalene species and a tosylate anion. Kinetic experiments support this mechanism and show that, at moderate concentrations, the reaction is first order with respect to 2-naphthol, n-propanethiol, and p-toluenesulfonic acid (pTsOH). Experimentally determined activation parameters are similar to the calculated values (Delta H exp not equal =105+/-9, Delta H calcd not equal =118 kJ mol(-1); Delta G exp not equal =112+/-18, Delta G calcd not equal =142 kJ mol(-1)).     

Screening of a phosphite-phosphoramidite ligand library for palladium-catalysed asymmetric allylic substitution reactions: the origin of enantioselectivity

We have designed a new library of readily available, highly modular phosphite-phosphoramidite ligands for asymmetric allylic substitution reactions. They are easily prepared in one step from commercially available chiral 1,2-amino alcohols. The introduction of a phosphoramidite moiety into the ligand design is highly advantageous for the product outcome. This ligand library affords high reaction rates (TOFs of up to 800 mol (mol h)(-1)) and enantioselectivities (ees of up to 99%) and, at the same time, contains a broad range of disubstituted hindered and unhindered substrate types. NMR study of the Pd-pi-allyl intermediates provide a deeper understanding of the effect of the ligand parameters on the origin of enantioselectivity.     

Synthesis of carboxymethyl potato starch and comparison of optimal reaction conditions from different sources

Carboxymethyl potato starch (CMPS) was synthesized under heterogeneous reaction conditions. The influences of etherification temperature, alkalization and etherification time, sodium hydroxide to monochloroacetic acid (MCA) molar ratio (n_NaOH/n_MCA), theoretical degree of substitution (DS_t), the ratio of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) volume to starch mass (v_IPA/m_st) on degree of substitution (DS) and reaction efficiency (RE) of CMPS were investigated. Compared with the previous literature data, the results had significant difference for the optimal carboxymethylation conditions of potato starch from different sources. CMPS prepared under optimal conditions showed the highest DS and RE, which were 1.36 and 0.88, respectively. Furthermore, the RE value in this work is considerably higher than that reported in the literature. The time of alkalization and etherification were also discussed independently. In addition, CMPS was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Frontside versus Backside SN2 Substitution at Group 14 Atoms: Origin of Reaction Barriers and Reasons for Their Absence

We have theoretically studied the gas‐phase nucleophilic substitution at group‐14 atoms (S_N2@A) in the model reactions of Cl^?+AH₃Cl (A=C, Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) using relativistic density functional theory (DFT) at ZORA‐OLYP/TZ2P. Firstly, we wish to explore and understand how the reaction coordinate ζ, and potential energy surfaces (PES) along ζ, vary as the center of nucleophilic attack changes from carbon to the heavier group‐14 atoms. Secondly, a comparison between the more common backside reaction (S_N2‐b) and the frontside pathway (S_N2‐f) is performed. The S_N2‐b reaction is found to have a central barrier for A=C, but none for the other group‐14 atoms, A=Si–Pb. Relativistic effects destabilize reactant complexes and transition species by up to 10 kcal mol^?1 (for S_N2‐f@Pb), but they do not change relative heights of barriers. We also address the nature of the transformation in the frontside S_N2‐f reactions in terms of turnstile rotation versus Berry‐pseudorotation mechanism.     

Ionic Transformations in Extremely Nonpolar Fluorous Media: Easily Recoverable Phase‐Transfer Catalysts for Halide‐Substitution Reactions

Solutions of the fluorous alkyl halides R_f8(CH₂)_mX (R_fn=(CF₂)_n?1CF₃; m=2, 3; X=Cl, Br, I) in perfluoromethylcyclohexane or perfluoromethyldecalin are inert towards solid or aqueous NaCl, NaBr, KI, KCN, and NaOAc. However, halide substitution occurs in the presence of fluorous phosphonium salts (R_f8(CH₂)₂)(R_f6(CH₂)₂)₃P⁺X^? (X=I ( 1 ), Br ( 3 )) and (R_f8(CH₂)₂)₄P⁺I^? (10 mol %), which are soluble in the fluorous solvents under the reaction conditions (76–100 °C). Stoichiometric reactions of a) 1 with R_f8(CH₂)₂Br and b) 3 with R_f8(CH₂)₂I were conducted under homogenous conditions in perfluoromethyldecalin at 100 °C and yielded the same R_f8(CH₂)₂I/R_f8(CH₂)₂Br equilibrium ratio (≈60:40). This shows that ionic displacements can take place in extremely nonpolar fluorous phases and suggests a classical phase‐transfer mechanism for the catalyzed reactions. Interestingly, the nonfluorous salt (CH₃(CH₂)₁₁)(CH₃(CH₂)₇)₃P⁺I^? ( 4 ) also catalyzes halide substitutions, but under triphasic conditions with 4 suspended between the lower fluorous and upper aqueous layers. NMR experiments established very low solubilities in both phases, which suggests interfacial catalysis. Catalyst 1 is easily recycled, optimally by simple precipitation onto teflon tape.
