Crystal and molecular structure of nitraminotetrazole and nitramino-1,2,4-triazole. IV. 5-nitraminotetrazole sodium salt sesquihydrate

The structure of 5-nitraminotetrazole sodium salt sesquihydrate was determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c;a = 3.551(1) Å, b = 21.834(4) Å, c = 9.075(2) Å; = 110.68(3)°; V = 658.3(2) ų; Z = 4; _calc = 1.807 g/cm³. The anion is planar and has an intramolecular hydrogen bond. The negative charge of the anion is localized on one of the oxygens of the nitro group. The sodium cation (c.n.6) is coordinated by three oxygen atoms of different anions and three oxygens of crystallization water. One of the crystallization water molecules is disordered in the unit cell. The anions are hydrogen-bonded with each other and with crystallization water molecules.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by A. M. Astakhov, A. D. Vasiliev, M. S. Molokeev, L. A. Kruglyakova, A.

Reaction of cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide with azobenzene. Synthesis and molecular and crystal structure of the binuclear complex [C5H5(THF)Lu(μ−η2:η2−PhN—NPh)]2(THF)2 and its dynamic behavior in solution

The reaction of the cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide, C₅H₅Lu(C₁₄H₁₀)²⁻(THF)₂ (1), with azobenzene yielded the [C₅H₅(THF)Lu(μ−η²:η²−PhN—NPh)]₂(THF)₂ (2) binuclear complex. The structure of the reaction product was established by X-ray structural analysis. The dynamic behavior of complex2 in a THF-d₈ solution was studied by¹H NMR spectroscopy in the temperature range of 265–330 K. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Conduction and Transport Numbers in Metacomposites MeWO<Subscript>4</Subscript> ⋅ WO<Subscript>3</Subscript> (Me = Ca,Sr, Ba)

The conduction and transport numbers of charge carriers for composites in the systems MeWO₄-WO₃ (Me = Ca, Sr, Ba) are studied as a function of the temperature and the activity of oxygen in a gas phase. The transport numbers are determined by an emf method and are estimated from dependences of conductance on the activity of oxygen in a gas phase. The deficiencies of the given procedure as applied to investigation of properties of composite phases are analyzed. The materials under study are classified with a class of metacomposites. The concentration intervals of the ionic, mixed, and electronic conductions are determined. The conduction of composites of compositions (100 − x)MeWO₄ ⋅ xWO₃ is predominantly ionic at x ≤ 10 (Me = Ca), x ≤ 60 (Me = Sr), and x ≤ 45 (Me = Ba). The obtained data are explained in the framework of a model that represents a composite as a distributed matrix system where a film of surface phase MeW-s with a high mobility of oxygen ions plays the role of a connected matrix. It is presumed that the surface phase MeW-s possesses double-sided surface activity (α _MeW-s ≤ ) and a higher mobility with respect to MeWO₄ and WO₃. The discovered anomalies of dependences (T) and partial dependences , σ_el(T) are explained by a change in the stoichiometry, morphology, and the degree of connectedness of surface phase MeW-s caused by with a change in the temperature and composition of composites.__________Translated from Elektrokhimiya, Vol. 41, No. 6, 2005, pp. 680–693.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Neiman, Pestereva, Sharafutdinov, Kostikov.Published on the basis of a report delivered at the VII Meeting on Fundamental Problems in Solid-State Ionics (Chernogolovka-2004).     

A convenient and efficient preparation of β-substituted α-haloenones from diazodicarbonyl compounds

Rhodium(II)-catalyzed reactions of cyclic diazodicarbonyl compounds with a variety of halides have been examined. With acid halides, β-acyloxy α-haloenones are produced in good yields. With benzyl halides, β-benzyloxy α-haloenones are obtained in good yields. Reactions with methylene halides yield β-halomethoxy α-haloenones in good yields, whereas reactions with ethyl halides and ethylene dihalides result in β-hydroxy α-haloenones in high yields. These reactions provide a useful and rapid entry to β-substituted α-haloenones. The mechanistic pathway for the formation of these products has been also described in terms of halonium ylides.     

Vibrational Spectroscopic Studies on the Hofmann-dabn-Type Benzene Clathrates: M(1,4-diaminobutane)Ni(CN)4° 1.5C6H6 (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni or Cd)

IR spectra of M(1,4-diaminobutane)Ni(CN)4° 1.5C6H6 (M = Mn, Fe, or Co), and IR and Raman spectra of M(1,4-diaminobutane)Ni(CN)4° 1.5C6H6 (M = Ni or Cd) clathrates are reported. The spectral features suggest that the compounds are similar in structure to the Hofmann-dabn-type clathrates.     

Synthesis of cationic complexes [(C<Subscript>4</Subscript>Me<Subscript>4</Subscript>)CoL]<Superscript>+</Superscript> (L is naphthalene,phenanthrene, and anthracene)

Cationic arene complexes [Cb*Co(naphthalene)]⁺ (2, Cb* = C₄Me₄) and [Cb*Co(phenanthrene)]⁺ were synthesized by the reactions of [Cb*Co(MeCN)₃]⁺ with arenes. The [Cb*Co(anthracene)]⁺ complex was synthesized by the abstraction of the iodide ion from [Cb*CoI]₂ by TIBF₄ in the presence of anthracene. Complex 2 exchanges the naphthalene ligand for other arenes at room temperature. Dedicated to Academician G. A. Abakumov on the occasion of his 70th birthday.

Prescriptions and Ingredients for Controlled CC Bond Formation with Organometallic Reagents. New synthetic methods (5)

Merits and drawbacks of known carbon-carbon linking procedures are outlined. Two novel methods are discussed in some detail: the copper-catalyzed alkylation of Grignard reagents and reactions with allylpotassium compounds. Both methods provide a very efficient access to saturated, unsaturated, as well as functionally substituted hydrocarbons and moreover permit an astonishing degree of regio- and stereoselective control of olefin synthesis.     

Palladium-catalyzed ring expansion reaction of 1-alkynylcyclobutanols with aryl iodides: an efficient route to 2-disubstituted methylenecyclopentanones

The reaction of 1-alkynylcyclobutanols with aryl iodides in the presence of Pd(OAc)₂ and Et₃N in acetonitrile at 80°C for 24 h gives 2-disubstituted methylenecyclopentan-1-ones in modest to good yields. The tandem insertion-ring expansion process proceeds via the formation of an alkynyl π-complex, followed by migration of a carbon-carbon bond of the tert-alkanol to form the cyclopentanones stereoselectively.     

Molecular and crystalline structure of the enol form of (dimorpholinophosphoryl)chloroacetaldehyde and (dimorpholinophosphoryl)-dibromomethane

The crystal and molecular structures of the products of the halogenation of the dimorpholide of ethoxyvinylphosphonic acid were determined by the method of x-ray structure analysis. It was established that (dimorpholinophosphoryl)chloroacetaldehyde only exists in the crystals as the Z-enol [(Z)-1-hydroxy-2-(dimorpholinophosphoryl)-2-chloroethene] with intra- and intermolecular H-bonds (=CH...O=P and OH...O=P). The (dimorpholinophosphoryl)dibromomethane forms centrosymmetric eight-membered cyclic dimers in the crystals due to intermolecular CH...O=P H-bonds. The structure of the morpholine and phosphoryl groups in both compounds was discussed.A. E.

Fused isoquinolines: 3-aryl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]isoquinoline-1,5-dione-2-spiro-4′-(1′-alkyl-1′,4′-dihydropyridine)s

Previously unknown 3-arylamino-1,2-dihydro-1-isoquinolones were obtained by condensation of 2-cyanomethylbenzoic acid with arylamines. Isonicotinoylation of the compounds was shown to proceed at the carbon atom in the 4-position to give 3-arylamino-4-isonicotinoyl-1,2-dihydro-1-isoquinolones which were quaternized with alkylating agents and formed the corresponding pyridinium salts. Deprotonation of the latter induced intramolecular conjugated addition with the pyrrole ring closure and formation of spiro compounds. The structure of the products was confirmed by NMR, IR and UV spectroscopy and by synthesis of the model compound, 3-(4-tolyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]isoquinoline-1,5-dione.
