Rotational barrier for 1-acetyl-2-(p-methoxy benzyl)-3-pyrroline

Calculation of the rotational barriers for the trans- and cis-forms of 2-(p-methoxy)-1-acetyl-pyrroline are presented in this paper. It is found that thetrans-isomer is slightly more favourable energetically, while the rotations of the cis-form are highly impeded. Hence the relevant rotations are in thetrans-form which stabilizes its energy by forming a weak inner proton bond between the carbonyl oxygen and the pyrroline ring. The acetyl rotational barrier is of the order of 8 kcal, which is well in accord with experimental data reported in the literature for other acetyl-amide derivatives.[/p]Work supported in part by Instituto Mexicano del Petróleo.     

The Birch reduction-dialkylation reaction. Scope and limitations

The Birch reduction-dialkylation reaction has been studied with different aromatic carboxylic acids and primary and secondary bromides. From these results it can be concluded that it is a reasonably general reaction. However, we found important exceptions with the primary bromides: allyl bromide, β-phenethyl bromide, and 5-bromo-2-methyl-2-pentene. The unusual behavior of allyl bromide is briefly discussed.     

取代苯体系的二阶非线性光学性质:动力学李代数方法

提出了一种动力学李代数方法来研究取代苯体系的非线性光学性质. 对于给定的PPP模型(Pariser-Parr-Pople)哈密顿量, 生成了一个动力学李代数. 依据这些代数元构造出演化算子作为群参数的函数, 通过求解一组非线性微分方程能够得到这些群参数. 再按照统计力学中的密度算子公式给出取代苯分子体系偶极矩的统计平均值. 于是导出二阶极化率的表达式. 与其他量子力学计算结果比较, 表明这种动力学李代数方法在预言有机共轭分子的非线性光学性质上同样有用.     

Molecular structure of ethynylbenzene from electron diffraction and ab initio molecular orbital calculations

The molecular structure and benzene ring distortions of ethynylbenzene have been investigated by gas-phase electron diffraction and ab initio MO calculations at the HF/6-31G^* and 6-3G^** levels. Least-squares refinement of a model withC _2v, symmetry, with constraints from the MO calculations, yielded the following important bond distances and angles:r _g(C _i -C _o )=1.407±0.003 Å,r _g(C _o -C _m )=1.397±0.003 Å,r _g(C _m -C _p )=1.400±0.003 Å,r _g(Cr _i -CCH)=1.436 ±0.004 Å,r _g(C=C)=1.205±0.005 Å, C _o -C _i -C _o =119.8±0.4°. The deformation of the benzene ring of ethynylbenzene given by the MO calculations, including o-C_i-C_o=119.4°, is insensitive to the basis set used and agrees with that obtained by low-temperature X-ray crystallography for the phenylethynyl fragment, C₆H₅-CC-, in two different crystal environments. The partial substitution structure of ethynylbenzene from microwave spectroscopy is shown to be inaccurate in the ipso region of the benzene ring.     

TheSemmler-Wolff aromatization andSchmidt reaction applied to some pyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]benzotriazines

Pyrido[2,3:3,4]pyrazolo[5,1-c][1,2,4]benzotriazin-4(1H)ones were transformed via their oximes in aSemmler-Wolff aromatization process in the tetracyclic heteroaromatic amines4 or bySchmidt reaction into a mixture of the same amine4 and a ring enlarged lactam3. Syntheses of some halo pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridines and a photochemical transformation of 3-azidopyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine are also described.

Strong intramolecular secondary si.N bonds in trifluorosilylhydrazines

The simple silylhydrazines F(3)SiN(Me)NMe(2) (1), F(2)Si(N(Me)NMe(2))(2) (2), and F(3)SiN(SiMe(3))NMe(2) (3) have been prepared by reaction of SiF(4) with LiN(Me)NMe(2) and LiN(SiMe(3))NMe(2), while F(3)SiN(SnMe(3))NMe(2) (4) was prepared from SiF(4) and (Me(3)Sn)(2)NNMe(2) (5). The compounds were characterized by gas-phase IR and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy ((1)H, (13)C, (14/15)N, (19)F, (29)Si, (119)Sn), as well as by mass spectrometry. The crystal structures of compounds 1-5 were determined by X-ray crystallography. The structures of free molecules 1 and 3 were determined by gas-phase electron diffraction. The structures of 1, 2, and 4 were also determined by ab initio calculations at the MP2/6-311+G** level of theory. These structural studies constitute the first experimental proof for the presence of strong Si.N beta-donor-acceptor bonds between the SiF(3) and geminal NMe(2) groups in silylhydrazines. The strength of these non-classical Si.N interactions is strongly dependent on the nature of the substituent at the alpha-nitrogen atom of the SiNN unit, and has the order 3>4>1. The valence angles at these extremely deformed alpha-nitrogen atoms, and the Si.N distances are (crystal/gas): 1 104.2(1)/106.5(4) degrees, 2.438(1)/2.510(6) A; 3 83.6(1)/84.9(4) degrees, 2.102(1)/2.135(9) A; 4 89.6(1) degrees, 2.204(2) A.

Efficient and rapid synthesis of 1-substituted-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles in the acidic ionic liquid 1-n-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate

An efficient synthesis leading directly to 1-substituted-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles from easily available amines and sodium azide in stoichiometric proportions using a room-temperature ionic liquid, namely, 1-n-butylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate in excellent yields is described. The inherent Brønsted acidity and high polarity of the IL results in a significant enhancement in the reaction rate.
