Danino for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry presented on _Dcc, Title: Carbene RearrangementE) Intramolecular Interaction of a Triple Bond with aCarbene Center Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Dr. Vetere. Freeman The tosylhydrazones of2-heptanone, 4,4-dimethy1-2- heptanone, 6-heptyn-2-one and 4,4-dimethy1-6-heptyn-2- one were synthesizedand decomposed under a varietyof reaction conditions:' drylithium and sodium salt pyrolyses, sodium methoxide thermolysesin diglyme and photolyses of the lithium salt intetrahydrofuran. The saturated ana- logues 2-heptanone tosylhydrazoneand its 4,4-dimethyl isomer afforded the alkenesarising from 6-hydrogeninser- product distribution in the tion. It was determined that differ- dry salt pyrolyses of2-heptanone tosylhydrazone was ent for the lithiumand the sodium salts. However, the product distribution of thedry sodium salt was verysimilar diglyme to product distributionobtained on thermolysis in explained by a with sodium methoxide. This difference was reaction of lithium bromide(present as an impurity inall compound to the lithium salts)with the intermediate diazo afford an organolithiumintermediate that behaves in a some- what different fashionthan the free carbene.The unsaturated analogues were found to produce a cyclic product in addition to the expected acyclic alkenes arising from 3-hydrogen insertion. By comparison of the acyclic alkene distri- bution obtained in the saturated analogues with those in the unsaturated analogues, it was concluded that at leastsome cyclization was occurring via addition of the diazo moiety to the triple bond. It was determined that the organo- lithium intermediateresulting from lithium bromide cat- alyzed decomposition of the diazo compound was incapable of cyclization. Alkene distribution upon pyrolyses of the lith- ium salt of 4,4-dimethy1-6-heptyn-2-one tosylhydrazone at differ- ent temperatures provides evidence for cyclization to beoccur- ring by a carbenic pathway in competition with the diazo pathway. Dry salt pyrolyses of 3,5,5-trimethy1-2-cyclohexenone tosylhydrazone showed that 1-carbena-3,5,5-trimethy1-2- cyclohexene does not open up to the acyclic carbene 2- carbena-4,4-dimethy1-6-hexyne. Direct photolysis of 1-diazo-5-hexyn-2-one afforded only the ketene arising from a Wolff rearrangement which was allowed to react with methanol to afford methyl 5- hexynoate before isolation. Sensitized photolysis afforded only the product arising from hydrogen abstraction by the triplet carbene: 5-hexyn-2-one. No cyclization products were detected under these reaction conditions.

China *Author to whom correspondence should be addressed: e-mail [email protected] Received: 7 April 2003; in revised form: 7 July 2003 / Accepted: 20 July 2003 / Published: 31 July 2003 Abstract: An improved method for the generation of dichlorocarbene was developed that utilizes ultrasound in the reaction of carbon tetrachloride with magnesium. High yields of gem-dichlorocyclopropane derivatives can be obtained in the presence of olefins by this method. Keywords: Dichlorocarbene; gem-dichlorocyclopropanes; ultrasonic irradiation; olefin addition; magnesium Introduction Gem-dichlorocyclopropanes are valuable intermediates in organic synthesis [1,2]. They are typically prepared by the addition of dichlorocarbene to olefins under phase-transfer catalysis conditions [3-5]. Sonochemical generation of dichlorocarbene has also been reported [6-8]. The reactions of dichlorocarbene with olefins in solid-liquid two-phase systems using ultrasonication usually afford high yields of double-bond addition products. In addition, excellent yields of diadducts have been obtained from dienes and dichlorocarbene under ultrasonication and phase-transfer catalyst [9]. Molecules 2003, 8 609 Previously, we reported a novel route for the generation of dichlorocarbene by the reaction of carbon tetrachloride with magnesium in a neutral medium and hypothesized that the mechanism of these reactions might involve a single electron transfer [10]. However, these reactions suffered from several experimental drawbacks: some of the major ones being the sudden exotherm that occurs after an unpredictable induction period, foaming, and in some cases, the use of iodine as the activating agent.

This transformation has not previously been done catalytically and has not been done in practical manner with stepwise or stoichiometric processes. Building on the previous work of the Lambert lab on the metathesis of cyclopropene and an aldehyde using a hydrazine catalyst, this work discusses efforts to expand to the less stained norbornene. Computational and experimental studies on the catalytic cycle are discussed, including detailed experimental work on how various factors affect the difficult cycloreversion step. The second portion of this thesis details the use of chiral cyclopropenimine bases as catalysts for asymmetric Michael reactions. The Lambert lab has previously developed chiral cyclopropenimine bases for glycine imine nucleophiles. The scope of these catalysts was expanded to include glycine imine derivatives in which the nitrogen atom was replaced with a carbon atom, and to include imines derived from other amino acids. i Table of Contents List of Abbreviations…………………………………………………………………………..iv Part I: Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis…………………………………………………………… 1 Chapter 1 – Metathesis Reactions of Double Bonds………………………………………….. 1 Introduction………………………………………………………………………………. 1 Olefin Metathesis………………………………………………………………………… 2 Wittig Reaction…………………………………………………………………………... 6 Tebbe Olefination………………………………………………………………………... 9 Carbonyl-Olefin Metathesis…………………………………………………………….

  • Heterocyclic Chemistry Updated
    1 | Page Heterocyclic Chemistry By Dr Vipul Kataria Definition: A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements (N, O, S, P) as members of its ring. Introduction: Heterocyclic compounds may be defined as cyclic compounds having as ring members atoms of at least two different elements. It means the cyclic compound has one another atom different than carbon. Heterocyclic compounds have much importance in organic chemistry because of abundant presence of heterocyclic compounds in present pharmaceutical drugs. Like other organic compounds, there are several defined rules for naming heterocyclic compounds. IUPAC rules for nomenclature of heterocyclic systems (SPU 2012, 2 Marks) The system for nomenclature for heterocyclic systems was given by Hantzsch and Widman. The Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature is based on the type (Z) of the heteroatom; the ring size (n) and nature of the ring, whether it is saturated or unsaturated. This system of nomenclature applies to monocyclic 3-to-10-membered ring heterocycles. Type of the heteroatom: The type of heteroatom is indicated by a prefix as shown below for common hetreroatoms. Dr Vipul Kataria, Chemistry Department, V. P. & R. P. T. P. Science College, VV Nagar 2 | Pag e When two or more of the same heteroatoms are present, the prrefix di, tri, tetra… are used. e.g. dioxa, triaza, dithia. If the heteroatoms are different their atomic number in that grroup is considered. Thus order of numbering will be O, S, N, P, Si. Ring size: The ring size is indicated by a suffix according to Table I below.

The structural heterogeneity or the fine crystalline structure of poly(4-methyl-1-pentene) could be correlated with its molecular structure by viewing this stereoregular homopolymer as if it were a copolymer. Cocrystallization or isomorphism phenomenon was recognized for the copolymeric systems of 4-methyl-1-pentene with butene-1, pentene-1, decene-1 and 3-methyl-1-butene, while no evidence of the phenomenon was obtained for the copolymeric systems with styrene and propylene. The degree of the isomorphism of those copolymers was discussed with the informations on the crystalline phases obtained from the X-ray study, on the constitution of the copolymeric chains in the amorphous phases obtained from the viscoelastic studies and on the other thermodynamical properties of these systems. INTRODUCTION Many works have been made with regard to the homopolymerization of olefins with stereospecific catalysts, i. e. complex catalysts composed of the combination of organometallic compound and transitional metallic compound.

  • Chloroform 18.08.2020.Pdf
    Chloroform Chloroform, or trichloromethane, is an organic compound with formula CHCl3. It is a colorless, sweet-smelling, dense liquid that is produced on a large scale as a precursor to PTFE. It is also a precursor to various refrigerants. It is one of the four chloromethanes and a trihalomethane. It is a powerful anesthetic, euphoriant, anxiolytic and sedative when inhaled or ingested. Formula: CHCl₃ IUPAC ID: Trichloromethane Molar mass: 119.38 g/mol Boiling point: 61.2 °C Density: 1.49 g/cm³ Melting point: -63.5 °C The molecule adopts a tetrahedral molecular geometry with C3v symmetry. Chloroform volatilizes readily from soil and surface water and undergoes degradation in air to produce phosgene, dichloromethane, formyl chloride, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen chloride. Its half-life in air ranges from 55 to 620 days. Biodegradation in water and soil is slow. Chloroform does not significantly bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms. Production:- In industry production, chloroform is produced by heating a mixture of chlorine and either chloromethane (CH3Cl) or methane (CH4). At 400–500 °C, a free radical halogenation occurs, converting these precursors to progressively more chlorinated compounds: CH4 + Cl2 → CH3Cl + HCl CH3Cl + Cl2 → CH2Cl2 + HCl CH2Cl2 + Cl2 → CHCl3 + HCl Chloroform undergoes further chlorination to yield carbon tetrachloride (CCl4): CHCl3 + Cl2 → CCl4 + HCl The output of this process is a mixture of the four chloromethanes (chloromethane, dichloromethane, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride), which can then be separated by distillation. Chloroform may also be produced on a small scale via the haloform reaction between acetone and sodium hypochlorite: 3 NaClO + (CH3)2CO → CHCl3 + 2 NaOH + CH3COONa Deuterochloroform[ Deuterated chloroform is an isotopologue of chloroform with a single deuterium atom.

    AN INVESTIGATION OF N-HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE CARBOXYLATES: INSIGHT INTO DECARBOXYLATION, A TRANSCARBOXYLATION REACTION, AND SYNTHESIS OF HYDROGEN BONDING PRECURSORS by Bret Ryan Van Ausdall A dissertation submitted to the faculty of The University of Utah in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry The University of Utah May 2012 Copyright © Bret Ryan Van Ausdall 2012 All Rights Reserved The University of Utah Graduate School STATEMENT OF DISSERTATION APPROVAL The dissertation of Bret Ryan Van Ausdall has been approved by the following supervisory committee members: Janis Louie , Chair 7-8-2011 Date Approved Cynthia Burrows , Member 7-8-2011 Date Approved Thomas Richmond , Member 7-8-2011 Date Approved Matthew S. Sigman , Member 7-8-2011 Date Approved Debra Mascaro , Member 7-8-2011 Date Approved and by Henry S. White , Chair of the Department of Chemistry and by Charles A. Wight, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT A series of 1,3-disubstituted-2-imidazolium carboxylates, an adduct of CO2 and N-heterocyclic carbenes, was synthesized and characterized using single crystal X-ray, thermogravimetric, IR, and NMR analysis. The TGA analysis of the imidazolium carboxylates shows that as steric bulk on the N-substituent increases, the ability of the NHC-CO2 to decarboxylate increases. Single crystal X-ray analysis shows that the torsional angle of the carboxylate group and the C-CO2 bond length with respect to the imidazolium ring is dependent on the steric bulk of the N-substituent. Rotamers in the t unit cell of a single crystal of I BuPrCO2 (2f) indicate that the C-CO2 bond length increases as the N-substituents rotate toward the carboxylate moiety, which suggests that rotation of the N-substituents through the plane of the C-CO2 bond may be involved in the bond breaking event to release CO2.

  • Insertion Reactions • Oxidative Addition and Substitution Allow Us to Assemble 1E and 2E Ligands on the Metal, Respectively
    Insertion Reactions • Oxidative addition and substitution allow us to assemble 1e and 2e ligands on the metal, respectively. • With insertion, and its reverse reaction, elimination, we can now combine and transform these ligands within the coordination sphere, and ultimately expel these transformed ligands to form free organic compounds. • There are two main types of insertion 1) 1,1 insertion in which the metal and the X ligand end up bound to the same (,)(1,1) atom 2) 1,2 insertion in which the metal and the X ligand end up bound to adjacent (1,2) atoms of an L‐type ligand. 1 • The type of insertion observed in any given case depends on the nature of the 2e inserting ligand. • For example: CO gives only 1,1 insertion ethylene gives only 1,2 insertion, in which the M and the X end up on adjacent atoms of what was the 2e X‐type ligand. In general, η1 ligands tend to give 1,1 insertion and η2 ligands give 1,2 insertion • SO2 is the only common ligan d tha t can give bthboth types of itiinsertion; as a ligan d, SO2 can be η1 (S) or η2 (S, O). • In principle, insertion reactions are reversible, but just as we saw for oxidative addition and reductive elimination previously, for many ligands only one of the two possible directions is observed in practice, probably because this direction is strongly favored thermodynamically. 2 •A2e vacant site is generated by 1,1 and 1,2 insertion reactions. • Thissite can be occupidied byanextlternal 2e ligan d and the itiinsertion prodtduct tdtrapped.
