Diisophorone and related compounds. Part 17 synthesis and nucleophilic reactions of 4,8-dibromodiisophorones

4,8-Dibromodiisophor-2(7)-en-l-ol-3-one is obtained by dibromination of the parent ketol, or by monobromination of the 4- or 8-bromo-analogues. It is converted, byKoch-Haaf carboxylation, into 4,8-dibromodiisophor-2(7)-en-3-one-1-carboxylic acid, which is also accessible by bromination of the appropriate preformed diisophorone-1-carboxylic acids. The existence of the dibromoketol in two stereoisomeric forms is traced to conformational differences of its 4-substituent.Acetolysis of the 4,8-dibromo-1-carboxylic acid or its methyl ester occurs exclusively at the 8-position, but hydrazinolysis removes both halogen substitutents, with formation of 4-hydrazono-diisophorones. The¹³C-nmr spectra reflect the structural and conformational changes. A general fragmentation pattern accounts for the behaviour of the individual compounds under electron impact.

Diisophoron und verwandte Verbindungen. 17. Mitt. Synthese und nucleophile Reaktionen von 4,8-Dibromdiisophoronen

Zusammenfassung 4,8-Dibromdiisophor-2(7)-en-l-ol-3-on wird durch Dibromierung des Stamm-Ketols oder durch Monobromierung seiner 4- oder 8-Monobrom-Derivate erhalten. MittelsKoch-Haaf Carboxylierung wird es in die entsprechende 1-Carbonsäure umgewandelt, die auch durch Bromierung von vorgebildeten Carbonsäuren zugänglich ist. Stereoisomere Formen des Dibromketols unterscheiden sich durch die Konformation ihres 4-Substituenten.Die Acetolyse der 4,8-Dibrom-1-carbonsäure beschränkt sich auf ihren 8-Substituenten; Hydrazinolyse entfernt hingegen beide Halogen-Atome unter Bildung von 4-Hydrazono-diisophoronen. Die¹³C-Kernresonanz-Spektren stimmen mit den Struktur- und Konfigurations-Änderungen überein. Das massenspektrometrische Verhalten der verschiedenen Verbindungen wird an Hand eines allgemeinen Fragmentations-Schemas erörtert.

     

ORGANIC PHOSPHORUS COMPOUNDS 93.1 PREPARATION,PROPERTIES AND HERBICIDAL ACTIVITY OF 2-SUBSTITUTED 5-PHENOXY- AND 5-PYRIDY LOXY-PHENYLAMINOALKYLPHOSPHONIC-AND-PHOSPHINIC ACILAS WELL AS-PHOSPHINE OXIDE DERIVATIVES*

Abstract

Interaction of 4-phenoxy and 4-pyridyloxy substituted 1.2-dinitrobenzenes and aminoalkylphosphonates,-phosphinates, and -phosphine oxides produces mainly 5-phenoxy- and 5-pyridyloxy substituted 2-nitrophenylaminoalkyIphosphonates. -phosphinates and -phosphine oxides (Table I to IV and Figure 1 to 5). some of which show high herbicidal and plant growth regulating activity. The herbicidal activity increases from pyridyloxy-phenylaminoalkylphosphonates to phenoxy-phenylaminoalkyl-phosphonates, -phosphinates, -phosphine oxides. Of all the compounds tested the phosphine oxide 4a was at all concentrations the most active compound.     

Synthesis and NMR spectra of the hydroxyundecahydro-closo-dodecaborate [B12H11OH]2− and its acylated derivatives

Tetrabutylammonium hydroxyundecahydro-closo-dodecaborate was obtained in high yield via [B₁₂H₁₁NMP]^–(NMP =N-methylpyrrolidone) by the modified method. [B_i2H₁₁OH]^2– is easily acylated by aromatic acyl chlorides to give novel compounds [B₁₂H₁₁OCOAr]^2– in high yields. All the compounds were characterized by standard and special NMR methods.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 722–725, March, 1996.     

Synthesis of dialkoxy- and alkoxy-amino-disubstituted derivatives of B12H12 2−

Dichloromethoxymethane reacts with the sodium salt ofcloso-dodecahydrododecaborate Na₂B₁₂H₁₂ to give disubstituted cluster, which readily decomposes when treated with various reagents. This cluster reacts with water, forming the previously described 1,7-B₁₂H₁₀(OH)_{2 2–}reaction with alcohols results in a novel 1,7-dialkoxy derivative, whereas interaction with morpholine in acetone solution affords the novel anion, 1-O-I-Prⁱ-7-O(CH₂CH₂)N-B₁₂H₁₀ ^2–. All of these derivatives were isolated as cesium salts and characterized by one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
