Rate and Product Studies in the Solvolyses of Two Cyclic Phosphorochloridate Esters

Kinetic and product studies of the solvolyses of acyclic phosphorochloridates are extended to two cyclic diesters, 2-chloro-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane-2-oxide (1) and 2-chloro-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane-2-oxide (2). Slightly faster solvolyses are observed for 1 than for the acyclic dimethyl phosphorochloridate (3), and 2 solvolyzes somewhat slower than 3. An extended Grunwald–Winstein equation treatment shows similar sensitivities to changes in solvent nucleophilicity and solvent ionizing power for 1, 2, and 3, and a concerted S_N2 attack is proposed in each case. Product studies for the solvolyses of 2 in aqueous alcohols are presented.

     

Synthesis of Some New Triphenylphosphanylidenes,Alkylphosphonates, and Heterocycles of Pyrazole Derivatives and Their Antimicrobial Activity

Abstract

The reaction of 5(4H)-pyrazolone with phosphorus ylides afforded new triphenylphosphanylidene alkanone derivatives. Moreover, its benzylidene derivative reacted with Wittig–Horner reagents to give the corresponding dialkoxyphosphoryl, alkyl phosphonate, and heterocyclic products. Treatment of pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde with Wittig–Horner reagents and trialkyl phosphites gave the respective alkyl phosphonate adducts. Mechanisms accounting for the formation of the new products are discussed. The biological activity of some of the newly synthesized compounds was also examined.

Spectral Assignment of Phenanthrene Derivatives Based on 6H-Dibenzo[C,E][1,2] Oxaphosphinine 6-Oxide by NMR and Quantum Chemical Calculations

Abstract

Organophosphorus compounds such as 6H-dibenzo[c,e][1,2]oxaphosphinine 6-oxide (DOPO, 1) and its derivatives are important and versatile compounds for a broad field of applications. However, a thorough spectral assignment is often subordinate to its chemical properties. This article presents and unambiguously attributes the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of DOPO (1), selected products yielded from the Atherton–Todd reaction (2–4), DOPO-HQ (5) as well as sulfur derivatives (6–7) via a set of 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments. The complex P-C and P-H coupling patterns are discussed and compared with the derivatives possessing different chemical environments around the phosphorus atom. In addition, we compared our results with density functional theory calculations. Even though the prediction of NMR data of organophosphorus compounds via molecular modeling is limited, this study presents a method that yields good results for this class of heterocycles. This knowledge should help to quickly assign NMR spectroscopic data of other DOPO (1) derivatives and can be extrapolated to organophosphorus compounds in general.

NMR Characterization of Substituted Aromatic Poly (Ether Sulofone)s

Abstract

The synthesis of a variety of substituted bisphenol A polysulfones, including nitro, amino, aminomethyl, ethyl, and methyl derivatives, is described. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (both proton and carbon, and several 2-D experiments) data confirm conclusions on the substitution site based on arguments on inductive effects in the phenyl rings. The proton ortho to the oxygen in the bisphenol A (BPA) residue is replaced in electrophilic substitution reactions. The degree of substitution was also calculated from the NMR results. The ethyl and methyl derivatives were expected, from the starting reactants, to each have a BPA ring substituted. The NMR data showed that, on the average, this is true. The nitro derivative also has substitution in every BPA ring, while the amino and aminomethyl derivatives have only intermittent BPA rings substituted. Measured degrees of substitution (DS) varied from 0.11 to 2.25.     

Ethylene spacer-linked bis-acetamidopyridine for dicarboxylic acid recognition and polymeric new wave-like anti-perpendicular arrangement of a host–guest in the solid state

In this paper, 1,2-bis(2-acetamido-6-pyridyl)ethane, receptor 1, having an ethylene spacer is reported to recognise dicarboxylic acids. The binding study in the solution phase is carried out using ¹H NMR (1:1) and UV–vis experiments and in the solid phase by single-crystal X-ray analysis. In ¹H NMR, the downfield shifts of specific amide protons of receptor 1 in 1:1 complexes of receptor and guest diacids, and in the UV–vis experiment, the appearance of an isosbestic point as well as significant binding constants are observed, which thus unambiguously support the complexation of receptor 1 with dicarboxylic acids in solution. Receptor 2, simple 2-acetamido-6-methylpyridine, has lower binding constants than receptor 1 due to cooperative binding of two pyridine amide groups with two acid groups of diacids. In the solid phase, the ditopic receptor 1 shows a grid-like polymeric hydrogen-bonded network that changes to a polymeric wave-like 1:1 anti-perpendicular network instead of the syn–syn polymeric 1:1 (Goswami, S.; Dey, S.; Fun, H.-K.; Anjum, S.; Rahman, A.-U.

Influence of amidoammonium calix[4]resorcinarenes on methyl orange protolytic equilibrium: supramolecular indicator systems

Here, we report on the study of cationic amidoammonium calix[4]resorcinarenes 1–5 of various lipophilicity capable of binding acid–base indicator methyl orange (MO). We identified the contributions of macrocycle aggregation and conformational mobility in the binding of MO. The effective pK_a values of bound MO systematically decrease as the size and the packing density of the aggregates increase with an increase in calixresorcinarene lipophilicity. Consideration of a series of macrocycles clearly shows that large aggregates form most stable complexes, binding guests not on individual level but as aggregates. It was found that the most stable MO complex with 5 is formed due to electrostatic binding with ammonium groups of the macrocycle and incapsulation of MO in a hydrophobic layer of the aggregates. We have shown that competitive binding of MO and cationic surfactants by aggregates of 5 is suitable for visual/spectrophotometric detection of colourless anionic substrates.
