ITSTUDIES ON THE EFFECT OF UREA ON THE COMPATIBILITY OF PMMA/PVC MIXTURES IN DMF BY A DILUTE- SOLUTION VISCOMETRY METHOD

The interaction between poly(methymethacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) has been studied indilute urea solutions of dimethylformamide (DMF) at 28℃ using a dilute solution viscometry method. The results show thatthe polymer mixtures are compatible in DMF solution in the absence of urea. The influence of urea addition on the degree ofcompatibility of the polymer mixtures has been studied in terms of the compatibility parameters (△b_m and △[η]_m). It wasfound that the compatibility of the polymer mixtures is decreased with increasing urea addition, passing through a minimumat 0.5 M urea.     

Chlorodimethylaluminum-promoted nucleophilic addition of lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide to aliphatic aldehydes and DDQ-mediated carbon-carbon bond cleavage of the adducts providing the parent aldehydes

Treatment of aliphatic aldehyde with lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide in the presence of chlorodimethylaluminum provided the corresponding carbinol in excellent yield. The carbinol returns to the parent aldehyde and pentamethylcyclopentadiene by the action of a catalytic amount of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyanobenzoquinone (DDQ).     

Pentamethylcyclopentadienide in organic synthesis: nucleophilic addition of lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide to aromatic aldehydes and carbon-carbon bond cleavage of the adducts affording the parent aldehydes

Treatment of aromatic aldehyde with lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide provided the corresponding carbinol in excellent yield. The carbinol returns to the parent aldehyde and pentamethylcyclopentadiene upon exposure to an acid or due to heating. The combination of the two reactions can represent a protection of aromatic aldehyde.     

Understanding the catalytic role of flexible chiral δ-amino alcohols: the 1-(2-aminoethyl)norbornan-2-ol model

An empiric first approach to the knowledge about the structural factors influencing the catalytic behavior of conformationally flexible δ-amino-alcohol-based ligands, for the enantioselective addition of dialkylzincs to prochiral carbonyl groups, has been applied using the 1-(2-aminoethyl)norbornan-2-ol moiety as the model chiral system, and the asymmetrically catalyzed addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde as the test reaction. For this purpose, a selected small library of seven norbornane-based chiral ligands, bearing well-defined structural variations to allow a comparative study, that is, variation of the relative configuration and steric hindrance at the C(2), C(3) and/or C(7) norbornane positions, has been synthesized and probed in the mentioned test reaction. The experimental results obtained have been rationalized empirically using diastereomeric Noyori-like transition states, demonstrating that the conformational flexibility of the δ-amino-alcohol ligands, contrary to the more studied and rigid β-amino-alcohols, plays a crucial role on the catalytic behavior of such ligands (stereochemical sense and degree of the stereodifferentiation in the asymmetric process), which makes such structural factors, important for the improved design of new related chiral catalysts. In this sense, a robust crude empirical model for the prediction of the catalytic behavior of such δ-amino-alcohol-based ligands is proposed.     

Novel reaction of 1-aryl-2-bromodiazene 1-oxides with olefins. Synthesis of 1-aryl-2-(2-bromoalkyl)diazene 1-oxides

The addition of 1-aryl-2-bromodiazene 1-oxides to olefins yields 1-aryl-2-(2-bromoalkyl)diazene 1-oxides (4). A radical mechanism of the reaction has been suggested. Compounds4 decompose to give bromohydrazones of formaldehyde and aldehydes. The structural factors that affect the rate of this process are discussed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Elektrophile Substitution und nucleophile Addition an 3,4-Dihydro-5(1H)-pyrromethenonen

3,4-Dihydro-5(1H)-pyrromethenones are easier attacked at themeso-position by electrophiles than 5(1H)-pyrromethenones. This is demonstrated both by aMannich-type-substitution or deuterium-exchange-experiments and by the addition of O-, S-, and N-Nucleophiles to the exocyclic double bond of the model-dihydropyrromethenone (Z)-1 under very mild reaction conditions. Applying these results to the chemistry of 2,3-dihydro-bilatrienes-abc, their chemical characteristics—especially their tautomeric behavior and their dominant C-5-selectivity towards electrophiles—become better understandable.

Absolute Rate Constants for the Addition of the 1‐(tert‐Butoxy)carbonylethyl Radical onto Cyclic Alkenes in Solution

Absolute rate constants are reported for the addition of the 1‐[(tert‐butoxy)carbonyl]ethyl (= 2‐(1,1‐dimethylethoxy)‐1‐methyl‐2‐oxoethyl) radical ^.CHMeCO₂(t‐Bu) to several cyclic and monosubstituted alkenes in MeCN as obtained by time‐resolved electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The activation energies for the addition of this alkyl radical are mainly governed by the addition enthalpy but are also substantially lowered by the ambiphilic effect and by relief of cyclic strain.     

Negatively charged hyperbranched polyether-based polyelectrolytes

The preparation of carboxylated hyperbranched polyglycerols of narrow polydispersity was achieved by modification (78–90%) of the hydroxyl end groups via Michael addition of acrylonitrile, followed by hydrolysis. High conversion could only be achieved for low molecular weight starting materials (520 and 1,030 g mol⁻¹). The solution properties of the resulting materials were investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS), showing the formation of large aggregates with size depending on the pH value. After deposition on a negatively charged mica surface, the structures observed by atomic force microscope (AFM) show the coexistence of aggregates and single macromolecules. Most interesting, in the case of the lower molecular weight sample (PG 520 g mol⁻¹), extended and ordered terrace structures were formed, which are unprecedented for hyperbranched polymers and are of interest for surface modification in general.     

Synthesis and properties of fluorous arenes and triaryl phosphorus compounds with branched fluoroalkyl moieties (“split pony tails”)

Most compounds designed for immobilization in fluorous media feature linear pony tails of the formula (CH₂)_m(CF₂)_n−1CF₃ [(CH₂)_mR_fn]. This paper presents a first-generation approach to compounds with branched or “split” pony tails of the formula (CH₂)_lCH[(CH₂)_mR_fn]₂. Allyl tri(n-butyl)tin is reacted twice with perfluorooctyl iodide (R_f8I; first, photochemical, 78-81%; second, thermal with radical initiator, 71%; 13-18 g scales) to give the secondary alkyl iodide ICH(CH₂R_f8)₂ (3). A subsequent Ni(Cl)₂(PPh₃)₂-catalyzed reaction with allyl tri(n-butyl)tin yields the branched alkene H₂CCHCH₂CH(CH₂R_f8)₂ (74%). A palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling with OP(p-C₆H₄Br)₃ gives the fluorous phosphine oxide OP(p-C₆H₄CHCHCH₂CH(CH₂R_f8)₂)₃ (84%), and Pd/C-catalyzed hydrogenation affords OP(p-C₆H₄(CH₂)₃CH(CH₂R_f8)₂)₃ (>99%). Reduction with SiHCl₃ gives P(p-C₆H₄(CH₂)₃CH(CH₂R_f8)₂)₃, which is protected as the air-stable borane adduct H₃B·P(p-C₆H₄(CH₂)₃CH(CH₂R_f8)₂)₃ (9, 64%). The CF₃C₆F₁₁/toluene partition coefficient of 9 is much higher than that of the analog with p-(CH₂)₃R_f8 groups (96.6:3.4 versus 37.3:62.7). The iodide 3 is unreactive towards PAr₃ at 175-250 °C. However, a CuBr-catalyzed reaction with C₆H₅MgBr gives C₆H₅CH(CH₂R_f8)₂, which also exhibits a high partition coefficient (97.9:2.1).
