    molecules Review Rhodium-Catalyzed Synthesis of Organosulfur Compounds Involving S-S Bond Cleavage of Disulfides and Sulfur Mieko Arisawa * and Masahiko Yamaguchi Department of Organic Chemistry, Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Tohoku University, Aoba, Sendai 980-8578, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-22-795-6814 Academic Editor: Bartolo Gabriele Received: 17 July 2020; Accepted: 5 August 2020; Published: 7 August 2020 Abstract: Organosulfur compounds are widely used for the manufacture of drugs and materials, and their synthesis in general conventionally employs nucleophilic substitution reactions of thiolate anions formed from thiols and bases. To synthesize advanced functional organosulfur compounds, development of novel synthetic methods is an important task. We have been studying the synthesis of organosulfur compounds by transition-metal catalysis using disulfides and sulfur, which are easier to handle and less odiferous than thiols. In this article, we describe our development that rhodium complexes efficiently catalyze the cleavage of S-S bonds and transfer organothio groups to organic compounds, which provide diverse organosulfur compounds. The synthesis does not require use of bases or organometallic reagents; furthermore, it is reversible, involving chemical equilibria and interconversion reactions. Keywords: rhodium; catalysis; synthesis; organosulfur compounds; S-S bond cleavage; chemical equilibrium; reversible reaction 1. Introduction 1.1. Structure and Reactivity of Organic Disulfides Organosulfur compounds containing C-S bonds are widely used for the manufacture of drugs and materials. Compared with organic compounds containing oxygen, which is another group 16(6A) element, different properties appear owing to the large size and polarizability of sulfur atoms.

  • 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.

Bhoyar2 1, 2 Department of Applied Chemistry, Shri Datta Meghe Polytechnic, Nagpur, India ABSTRACT : Main aim of this paper is to present the information regarding the Heterocyclic compounds that constitute the largest family of organic compounds. These are extremely important with wide array of synthetic, pharmaceutical and industrial applications. There is always a strong need for new and efficient processes in synthesizing of new Heterocycles. Several 1,3,4,5-tetraaryl-2 pyrazoline, 41 –piperazine, 3- methoxybenzofuran and thiazolidin-4-one substituted 1, 2, 4-triazole, 4- NO2, 2-OH and 4-Cl in phenyl ring at 5- position of pyrazoline ring of synthesized compounds. The new compounds were characterized using IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and mass spectra. Biological screening of some compounds is reported. Keywords: Synthesized compounds, heterocyclic substances. I. INTRODUCTION Compounds classified as heterocyclic probably constitute the largest and most varied family of organic compounds. After all, every carbocyclic compound, regardless of structure and functionality, may in principle be converted into a collection of heterocyclic analogs by replacing one or more of the ring carbon atoms with a different element. Even if we restrict our consideration to oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur (the most common heterocyclic elements), the permutations and combinations of such a replacement are numerous. Derivatives of the simple fused ring heterocycle purine constitute an especially important and abundant family of natural products. The amino compounds adenine and guanine are two of the complementary bases that are essential components of DNA.

  • Non-Empirical Calculations on the Electronic Structure of Olefins and Aromatics
    NON-EMPIRICAL CALCULATIONS ON THE ELECTRONIC STRUCTURE OF OLEFINS AND AROMATICS by Robert H. Findlay, B.Sc. Thesis presented for the Degree of Doctor of philosophy University of Edinburgh December 1973 U N /),, cb CIV 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I Wish to express my gratitude to Dr. M.H. Palmer for his advice and encouragement during this period of study. I should also like to thank Professor J.I.G. Cadogan and Professor N. Campbell for the provision of facilities, and the Carnegie Institute for the Universities of Scotland for a Research Scholarship. SUMMARY Non-empirical, self-consistent field, molecular orbital calculations, with the atomic orbitals represented by linear combinations of Gaussian-type functions have been carried out on the ground state electronic structures of some nitrogen-, oxygen-, sulphur- and phosphorus-containing heterocycles. Some olefins and olefin derivatives have also been studied. Calculated values of properties have been compared with the appropriate experimental quantities, and in most cases the agreement is good, with linear relationships being established; these are found to have very small standard deviations. Extensions to molecules for which there is no experimental data have been made. In many cases it has been iôtrnd possible to relate the molecular orbitals to the simplest member of a series, or to the hydrocarbon analogue. Predictions of the preferred geometry of selected molecules have been made; these have been used to predict inversion barriers and reaction mechanisms. / / The extent of d-orbital participation in molecules containing second row atoms has been investigated and found to be of trivial importance except in molecules containing high valence states of the second row atoms.

Academic Editor: Steve Scheiner Received: 31 March 2018; Accepted: 11 April 2018; Published: 14 April 2018 Abstract: Ab initio MP2/aug’-cc-pVTZ calculations have been performed to investigate the complexes of CO2 with the azoles pyrrole, pyrazole, imidazole, 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazole, tetrazole and pentazole. Three types of complexes have been found on the CO2:azole potential surfaces. These include ten complexes stabilized by tetrel bonds that have the azole molecule in the symmetry plane of the complex; seven tetrel-bonded complexes in which the CO2 molecule is perpendicular to the symmetry plane; and four hydrogen-bonded complexes. Eight of the planar complexes are stabilized by Nx···C tetrel bonds and by a secondary interaction involving an adjacent Ny-H bond and an O atom of CO2. The seven perpendicular CO2:azole complexes form between CO2 and two adjacent N atoms of the ring, both of which are electron-pair donors. In three of the four hydrogen-bonded complexes, the proton-donor Nz-H bond of the ring is bonded to two C-H bonds, thereby precluding the planar and perpendicular complexes.
