New activated bisfluoroaromatic compounds

Bis (p-fluorophenylethynyl) derivatives were obtained by the reaction of bisbromoaromatic compounds withp-fluorophenylacetylene in the presence of a Pd catalyst. Subsequent oxidation of these products using an I₂-DMSO system led to new bis(p-fluorophenylglyoxaly)ketones, α-diketones, and heterocyclic compounds. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and properties of bis(heteroazulen-3-yl)methyl cations and bis(heteroazulen-3-yl)ketones

The synthesis and properties of a novel type of bis(heteroazulen-3-yl)methyl cations, bis(2-oxo-2H-cyclohepta[b]furan-3-yl)methyl cation salt and nitrogen analogues, (9a-c·PF₆⁻) and (9a-c·BF₄⁻), as well as bis(heteroazulen-3-yl)ketones (12a-d) are studied. The synthetic method was based on a TFA-catalyzed electrophilic aromatic substitution on the heteroazulenes (6a-d) with paraformaldehyde to afford the corresponding disubstituted methane derivatives 7a-d, followed by oxidative hydrogen abstraction with DDQ, and subsequent exchange of the counter-anion by using aq. HPF₆ or aq. HBF₄. In addition, the reaction of 7a-d with 2.2 equiv. amounts of DDQ afforded carbonyl compounds 12a-d. The delocalization of the positive charge of 9a-c was evaluated by the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data. The thermodynamic stability of cations 9a-c was evaluated to be in the order 9a<9b<9c on the basis of their reduction potentials measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and pK_R+ values (2.6-10.3) obtained spectrophotometrically. The reduction waves of cations 9a-c were irreversible, suggesting the dimerization of the radical species generated by one-electron reduction. This was demonstrated by the reduction of 9a·BF₄⁻ with Zn powder to give dimerized product 14a. In addition, the quenching of 9a·BF₄⁻ with MeOH/NaHCO₃ gives ether derivative 15a, which is proposed for the precursor for synthesizing tris(heteroazulene)-substituted methyl cations bearing two different heteroazulene-units.

Molecular structure of (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine oxide. Synthesis of (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)phosphine sulfides

X-Ray study of the (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine oxide showed that the phosphorylmethyl group is bonded to the nitrogen atom of the cycle. Reaction of the tris(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide with sodium diallylisocyanurate gave (3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide, and treatment of the tris(3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)phosphine oxide with phosphorus pentasulfide gave a tris(3,5-diallylisocyanuratomethyl)bis(chloromethyl)phosphine sulfide.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Highly Regioselective Sequential 1,1‐Dihydrosilylation of Terminal Aliphatic Alkynes with Primary Silanes

A regioselective double 1,1‐hydrosilylation of terminal aliphatic alkynes with primary silanes catalyzed by one cobalt catalyst has been developed. gem‐Bis(dihydrosilyl)alkanes containing four silicon‐hydrogen bonds are efficiently constructed in an atom‐economical manner. Tolerated substrates include simplest alkyne‐ethyne, a complicated drug derivative and various functionalized terminal aliphatic alkynes. Asymmetric approach using two catalysts is achieved with excellent enantioselectivities to access corresponding chiral products. The transformations of Si—H bonds into Si—C, Si—O, and Si—F bonds and the synthesis of enantioriched α‐hydroxysilane show synthetic utility.

Thermolysis of furoxans annulated with five-membered carbocycles in the presence of dipolarophiles

The conditions for the thermolysis of furoxans annulated with differently strained five-membered carbocycles (cyclopentafuroxan 1, norbornenofuroxan 2, and acenaphthofuroxan 3) to bis(nitrile oxides) in the presence of various dipolarophiles (diethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, benzoylformonitrile, and ethoxycarbonylformonitrile) were optimized. It was found that the reactivities of the above furoxans as sources of bis(nitrile oxides) decrease in the order 2 > 1 > 3. Among the furoxans studied, only norbornenofuroxan 2 can be recommended as a possible cross-linking reagent for polymers. The formation of di-N-oxides of 3,4-bis(cyanopropyl)-, 3,4-bis(cyanocyclopentyl)-, and 3,4-bis(cyanonaphthyl)furoxans was detected. They resulted from intermolecular cyclodimerization of bis(nitrile oxides) initially formed in the thermolysis of furoxans 1–3. Dedicated to Academician V. A. Tartakovsky on the occasion of his 75th birthday. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1521–1528, August, 2007.     

Electrochemical synthesis of Co,Ni, and Zn complexes with 2-Pyrrole-[N-(o-hydroxyphenyl)methylimines]: The crystal structure of 2,2′-Bipyridine bis{2-[(2-pyrrole)methylimino]5-methylphenolato}nickel(II)

The electrochemical oxidation of anodic cobalt, nickel, and zinc in acetonitrile containing both 2-pyrrole-[N-(o-hydroxyphenyl)methylimines] (H₂L) and a bidentate ligand (1, 10-phenanthroline(phen) or 2,2′-bipyridine(bipy)) yielded compounds of general formula M(HL)₂ · phen and M(HL)₂ · bipy (M = Co, Ni, Zn). The crystal structure of 2,2′-bipyridine bis{2-[(2-pyrrole)methylimino]5-methylphenolato}nickel(II) was determined by X-ray diffraction. This compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pccn with a = 19.430(2), b = 28.488(2), c = 17.567(1) Å. The nickel atom has a distorted octahedral geometry, and the pyrrole nitrogen is not coordinated. The IR, ¹H-NMR and UV-visible spectra of the complexes are discussed and related to the structure.

Pentafluorophenyliodine(III) Compounds. 2. Fluorine-Aryl Substitution Reactions on Iodinetrifluoride: Synthesis of Pentafluorophenyliodinedifluoride C₆F₅IF₂ and Bis(pentafluorophenyl)iodonium Pentafluorophenylfluoroborates[(C₆F₅)₂I]⁺[(C₆F₅)_nBF_4?n]^? Mono- and disubstitution can be achieved in the fluorine-aryl substitution reaction on the low-temperature phase IF₃ in CH₂Cl₂ at ?78°C depending on the aryl transfer reagent. With B(C₆F₅)₃ [(C₆F₅)₂I]⁺ [(C₆F₅)_nBF_4?n]^? (68% yield) and with Cd(C₆F₅)₂ C₆F₅IF₂ (97% yield) is obtained whereas with C₆F₅SiMe₃ no fluorine-aryl substitution takes place on IF₃ even under basic conditions (EtCN or F^? addition). At ?78°C in EtCN solution IF₃ does not disproportionate but attacks the solvent under formation of HF.
