During the course of an investigation of molecular addition compounds of dinitrogen tetroxide with some ethers Rubin, Sisler, and Shechter^ found that 1,4-dioxane forms an addition compound with properties strikingly different from those of the addition compounds of the other ethers. It was noted that 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydropyran form dinitrogen tetroxide addition compounds with different mole ratios and strikingly different melting points. Dinitrogen tetroxide-dioxane melts at 45.2*C.; dinitrogen tetroxide*2 tetrahydropyran, at -56.8°C. A bicyclic monomer, a dimer, and a polymeric aggregation were proposed as possible structures for the dioxane-dinitrogen tetroxide addition compound, A study of the ternary system dioxane-tetrahydro- pyran-dinitrogen tetroxide was proposed (1) to investigate the possibility of a ternary compound, (2) to compare the stability of the crystalline dinitrogen tetroxide-dioxane compound with that of the crystalline dinitrogen tetroxide- tetrahydropyran compound over a large range In concentra­ tion, and (3) to perhaps more fully substantiate or 2 eliminate some of the structures proposed for the binary compounds. Although compos!tion-temporature phase diagrams have been widely used to detect compounds and solid solutions in equilibrium mixtures of two components, phase diagrams for non metallic, non aqueous, ternary systems are believed to be rare. Study in the field of ternary diagrams is compli­ cated by the relative complexity of the systems and by the necessity or representing the data in three dimensions. The system dioxane-tetrahydropyran-dinitrogen tetroxide thus offered an opportunity to construct a relatively rare type of diagram and to develop technique in determining and representing ternary systems. IX. STRUCTURE OF DINITROGEN TETROXIDE The structure of dinitrogen tetroxide has been a matter of much discussion. The following three structures have received considerable support: I ii III + -0 N -0-N o - n v ',0sn'm-o ./ \ . a 0 0 3 Structure I formerly was favored on the basis of chemical evidence, but now has been discarded on the basis of physical evidence. It was used to explain such reactions as the reaction with olefins to form nitroso, nitro, nitrite, and nitrate derivatives. More recently Levy and 2 Scaife studied this reaction and reported that, unless dinitrogen trioxide is present as an Impurity, no nitroso compounds are formed. The formation of the dinitroalkanes and nitronitrites has been explained by Ingold3 , using structure II and an electrophilic attack. The N0e+ attaches Itself first, and the N0fi” is free to attach either as a nitro or nitrite group. The slight dissociation of dinitrogen tetroxide Into N0+ and N03” , which was indicated by Addison and Thompson,4 can be explained with structure II or III. With structure II, a N-0 bond would be broken and an oxygen atom would be transferred across the weak N-N bond. With structure III, only an electron transfer is necessary. Thus, chemical evidence does not clearly differentiate among the three structures. Structures II and III are supported by both chemical and physical evidence. Infrared absorption and Raman scattering spectra indicate that dinitrogen tetroxide is symmetrical and non- 4 linear. Sutherland'5 Interpreted the low, very intense Raman frequency as evidence for a weak N-N bond and evidence for structure II. Longuet-Higgins6 proposed structure III and stated that the low, very intense Raman frequency could be caused by angular deformation of the ring. Thus, either structure seems to be consistent with spectroscopic data. Longuet-Higgins calculated the entropy value from spectroscopic data, and found that, in order to obtain agreement between his entropy value and the experimental value of Giaque and Kemp7 , he had to assume no free relative rotation of the ends of the molecule. This seemed to give additional support to structure III. More recently, how­ ever, Bernstein and Burns® calculated the entropy, by using structure II and the following bond distances and angles: angle 0N0 = 120°, N-0 - 1.15A°, and N-N * 1.66A®. Finding that they had to assume internal rotation to make their calculated value agree with that of Giaque and Kemp7 , they discarded structure III. The most conclusive evidence seems to be the X-ray data of Broadley and Robertson®. Their study of single crystals of the solid Indicates that the molecule is planar, and the bond distances and angles are as follows: N-N, 1.64 ± 0.03A*; N-0, 1.17 * 0.03*; 0-0 (both on one N 5 atom), 2.09 ± 0.03A*; and the angle 0N0, 126 * 1*. Structure II and the above measurements will be assumed in subsequent discussions. III. MOLECULAR ADDITION COMPOUNDS OF DINITROGEN TETROXIDE. Spath10 prepared crystalline U0 s (N03 )2*2N0s, by adding a mixture of dinitrogen pentoxide and dlnitrogen tetroxide to a solution which had been prepared from partiall dehydrated U02(NOs )2 »6H20 and fuming nitric acid. Composition-temperature phase diagrams constructed by Pascal and Gamier-*--*- indicated the formation of two com­ pounds: 5 dinitrogen tetroxide*4 camphor, with a melting point of -52*C., and 2 dlnitrogen tetroxide*3 camphor, with a melting point of -45.5°C.

  • Cationic Oligomerization of Ethylene Oxide
    Polymer Journal, Vol. 15, No. 12, pp 883-889 (1983) Cationic Oligomerization of Ethylene Oxide Shiro KOBAYASHI, Takatoshi KOBAYASHI, and Takeo SAEGUSA Department of Synthetic Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering, Kyoto University, Kyoto 606, Japan (Received July 29, 1983) ABSTRACT: The oligomerization of ethylene oxide (EO) was investigated with several cationic catalysts to find a method for producing cyclic oligomers (crown ethers). The reactions were monitored by NMR spectroscopy (1 H and 19F) and gas chromatography. The composition of oligomers was found to change during the reactions, and the production of 1,4-dioxane increased at the later stage of the reactions. This indicates that the composition of oligomers is kinetically controlled. The formation of higher cyclic oligomers was favored by the addition of tetrahydro­ pyran or 1,4-dioxane to the system catalyzed by an oxonium salt; the maximum yield of cyclic tetramer was 16.8%. The effect of alkali metal salts was also examined. A template effect was observed to increase the amount of cyclic oligomer production.

This study focused on biodegradation of 1,4-dioxane, which is a carcinogen and an emerging water contaminant. 1,4-Dioxane was utilized as a stabilizer of chlorinated solvents, such as 1,1,1- trichloroethane (TCA); and it has been found widespread in groundwater. Many US states are implementing lower regulatory advisory levels based on the toxicity profile of 1,4-dioxane and the potential public health risks. However, the unique chemical properties of 1,4-dioxane, such as high water solubility, low Henry’s law constant, and importantly, the co-occurrence with chlorinated solvents and other contaminants, increase the challenges to efficiently cleanup 1,4- ii dioxane contaminations. The objectives of this research were to measure and model the effects of chlorinated solvents on 1,4-dioxane metabolic biodegradation by laboratory pure cultures, elucidate the mechanisms of the inhibition, and test the effects of mixtures of co-contaminants in samples collected from actual 1,4-dioxane contaminated sites.

The one-pot formation of the title compound involved triethylsilyl (TES) removal, alkene isomerization, intramolecular conjugate addition and ketal formation. The compound was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry and IR spectroscopy. NMR spectroscopy was used to establish the product structure, including the conformation of its tetrahydropyran ring. Keywords: glucose; tetrahydropyran; deprotection; cyclisation; functionalized scaffold 1. Introduction Tetrahydropyran rings are found commonly in nature. Pyranoses, for example, are saccharides found in the ‘glycocalyx’, a carbohydrate-rich coating around cells, which is essential for interactions with biomolecules and important in numerous biological processes [1,2], including immunity, inflammation and infection [3,4]. The synthesis of mimetics of pyranoses (glycomimetics) is one strategy being investigated to give new therapies of various diseases, and this approach has received significant attention in recent years [5,6] with many structures investigated being tetrahydropyrans. The scaffolding role of pyranoses has also led to a body of work in the area of new scaffold development for medicinal chemistry [7].

Kranemann and James D. White* Received (in XXX, XXX) Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX, Accepted Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX 5 DOI: 10.1039/b000000x The potent antitumor agent phorboxazole A was synthesized from six subunits comprising C1-C2 (115), C3-C8 (98), C9-C19 (74), C20-C32 (52), C33-C41 (84) and C42-C46 (85). Tetrahydropyrans B and C containing cis-2,6-disubstitution were fabricated via palladium(II)-mediated intramolecular alkoxycarbonylation which, in the case of tetrahydropyran C, was carried out with catalytic palladium(II) 10 and p-benzoquinone as the stoichiometric re-oxidant. Tetrahydropyran D was obtained by a stereoselective tin(IV)-catalyzed coupling of a C9 aldehyde with an allylsilane, and the C19-C20 connection was made using a completely stereoselective Wittig-Schlosser (E) olefination. Coupling of the oxazole C32 methyl substituent with the intact C33-C46 -lactone 3 was accompanied by elimination of the vinyl bromide to a terminal alkyne, but the C32-C33 linkage was implemented successfully with 83 15 and C33-C41 lactone 84. The C42-C46 segment of the side chain was then appended via Julia-Kocienski olefination. The macrolide portion of phorboxazole A was completed by means of an Ando-Still- Gennari intramolecular (Z)-selective olefination at C2-C3 which required placement of a (dimethoxyphosphinyl)acetate moiety at C24. Final deprotection led to phorboxazole A via a route in which the longest linear sequence is 37 steps and the overall yield is 0.36%.

  • Functional Genomics of the Bacterial Degradation of the Emerging Water Contaminants: 1,4-Dioxane and N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA)
    Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) by Christopher Michael Sales A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering-Civil and Environmental Engineering in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Lisa Alvarez-Cohen, Chair Professor Kara L. Nelson Professor Mary K. Firestone Spring 2012 Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) Copyright 2012 By Christopher Michael Sales Abstract Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) by Christopher Michael Sales Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering - Civil & Environmental Engineering University of California, Berkeley Professor Lisa Alvarez-Cohen, Chair The emerging water contaminants 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) are toxic and classified as probable human carcinogens. Both compounds are persistent in the environment and are highly mobile in groundwater plumes due to their hydrophilic nature. The major source of 1,4-dioxane is due to its use as a stabilizer in the chlorinated solvent 1,1,1-trichloroethane. The presence of NDMA as a water contaminant is related to the release of rocket fuels and its formation in the disinfection of water and wastewater. Prior studies have demonstrated that bacteria expressing monooxygenases are capable of degrading 1,4-dioxane and NDMA. While growth on 1,4-dioxane as a sole carbon and energy source has been reported in Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans CB1190 and Pseudonocardia benzenivorans B5, it is also co-metabolically degradable by a variety of monooxygenase-expressing strains.
