Stereochemistry of cyclic ether formation—II : Intramolecular cyclisation of secondary aliphatic alcohols to tetrahydrofuran-type ethers

The mechanism and stereochemistry of δ-C atom functionalisation in the reactions of secondary straight-chain aliphatic alcohols with lead tetraacetate, ceric ammonium nitrate, and heavy metal (Pb⁴⁺, Hg²⁺, Ag⁺) salts (AcO)^?1, O^2?, CO₃^2?-halogen (I₂, Br₂, Cl₂) combinations are discussed. By demonstrating the intermediacy of 5-bromo-2-hexanol, it was confirmed that the dark silver oxidebromine induced cyclisation of 2-hexanol (and alcohols in general) involves (as the other hypohalite reactions) intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen abstraction by alkoxy radicals and formation of δ-bromohydrins. A novel and simple procedure for obtaining tetrahydrofurans from alcohols by way of the hypochlorite reaction, using silver or mercuric salts and chlorine, is described.     

Molekülsruktur und abs. konfiguration von (+)-p-menthadien-(1,8)-on-(2)-rhodium(I)-h5-cyclopentadienid, (+)-(4S-Carvon) RhI(C5H5)

The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁ with 4 molecules in the unit cell (cell dimensions: a 9.778(2), b 10.639(2) and c 12.423(4) Å). The structure was solved by means of the heavy atom method. The rhodium atom is linked to both olefinic double bonds. The terpene carbonyl group does not participate in coordination to rhodium. Unlike the endocyclic olefinic group, which is approximately perpendicular to the coordination plane of rhodium, the exocyclic Cz.sbnd;C double bound shows a considerable deviation from this arrangement. The π-complexation of carvone with rhodium proceeds diastereospecifically. The absolute configuration of (+)-carvone is 4S in agreement with the assignment derived by indirect chemical correlation.     

Cleavage by halogens of carbon—cobalt bonds in organometallic complexes of cobalt(III) : III. Kinetics and mechanism of the reactions of organobis(dimethylglyoximato)cobalt(III) complexes with iodine in chloroform

The kinetics of the reaction between organocobaloximes, RCo(DH)₂H₂O, and iodine have been investigated. They reveal the participation of an RCo(DH)₂H₂O · I₂ intermediate which undergoes intramolecular transalkylation and acts as an electrophile towards a second organocobaloxime molecule. The trend in reactivity as the R group is varied is discussed.

Group 6 tetracarbonyl complexes of N-[(2-pyridyl)methyliden]-α (or β)-aminonaphthalene: Spectral characterization,electrochemistry, solvatochromism and photophysical studies

A new series of group 6 carbonyl complexes of N-[(2-pyridyl)methyliden]-α (or β)-aminonaphthalene (α/β-NaiPy) are described in this work. The complexes are formulated as cis-[M(CO)₄(α/β-NaiPy)] by elemental, mass and other spectroscopic data. The complexes show emission spectra at room temperature and their quantum yield lies between 0.4 and 0.5. All the complexes exhibit negative solvatochromism. Cyclic voltammetry shows metal centred oxidation and ligand reductions.

Rearrangements of the carbanions derived from allyl benzyl thioether

The metalation of allyl benzyl thioether involves the benzylic or the allylic hydrogens. The benzylic carbanion undergoes a rapid[2,3] sigmatropic shift whereas the allylic carbanion gives rise to various rearrangements, among them migration of the allylic unit to the para position with allylic inversion. The temperature dependence of the ratio of products arising from the benzylic carbanion vs those from the allylic carbanion shows that the allylic-to-benzylic carbanion transformation occurs only under special conditions: (a) with slow addition of the base; (b) with thioether in excess relative to the base, and (c) on raising the temperature of the reaction medium from ?78° to ?15°. In the last instance, the proton transfer is intramolecular as shown with labeled thioethers. The extent of the different rearrangements depends on the temperature and solvent. A choice of mechanism cannot be made at this time for the para migration 5→9a. A leaving group effect on the reaction regioselectivity of the carbanion from allyl methyl thioether with benzyl halides has been noticed. The presence of dibenzyl indicates that, in addition to S_N2 reactions, some electron transfer process is occurring.     

Hydrogen bonding between solvation shells around gd3+ from cooperative vibronic spectra

Cooperative vibronic spectra involving Gd³⁺ electronic transitions and the vibrational transitions of nearby water molecules are used to determine the stretching spectrum for isotopically dilute OH in a solution of GdCl₃ in D₂O. The OH stretching spectrum of water molecules in the first hydration sphere is shifted to lower energy than that of the bulk liquid.     

A theoretical study on a fullerene derivative C54N4 and some of its protonated forms

Semiempirical quantum chemical calculations at the level of AM1 (restricted Hartree–Fock) have been performed on a fullerene derivative, C₅₄N₄, theoretically obtained from C₆₀ and its mono and diprotonated forms. All these structures are stable, but endothermic in nature. Some calculated geometrical and physicochemical properties of these have also been reported.     

Synthese und thermische Eigenschaften von molekularen Clusterverbindungen zusammengesetzt aus Elementen der Gruppen 11‐13‐16

Syntheses and Thermal Properties of Cluster Molecules, formed from Groups 11‐13‐16 Elements In the presence of PPh₃, CuX (X = Cl, CH₃COO) or AgOC(O)C₆H₅ and GaCl₃ react in THF with S(SiMe₃)₂ or Se(SiMe₃)₂ to yield [Cu₆Ga₈Cl₄S₁₃(PPh₃)₆] ( 1 ), [Cu₆Ga₈Cl₄Se₁₃(PPh₃)₆] ( 2 ), [Ag₆Ga₈Cl₄S₁₃(PPh₃)₆] ( 4 ) and [Ag₆Ga₈Cl₄Se₁₃(PPh₃)₆] ( 5 ). The use of PⁿPr₂Ph instead of PPh₃ and subsequent layering with n‐hexane leads to the formation of the cluster [Cu₆Ga₈Cl₄Se₁₃(PⁿPr₂Ph)₁₂] ( 3a , 3b ). Reaction of CuCl, GaCl₃ and PⁿPr₃ with Se(SiMe₃)₂ in THF results in the crystallisation of the ionic cluster (HPⁿPr₃)₂[Cu₂Ga₄Cl₄Se₆(PⁿPr₃)₄] ( 6 ). The structures of 1 — 6 were determined by X‐ray single crystal structure analysis. Thermogravimetric measurements of the cluster molecules and powder diffraction patterns of the remaining powders reveal the potential use of them as single source precursor compounds for the synthesis of the related ternary solid state materials.
