Factors to consider when looking at reactants, reaction intermediates and product(s). a. Are there any resonance effects? b. Are there any inductive effects? c. Are there any steric effects? d. Are there any stereochemical considerations? 2. Where are the pairs of electrons that can be donated? (nucleophilic sites) 3. Which site(s) can accept a pair of electrons? (electrophilic sites) 4. Is the reaction in acid? (A Lewis or Bronsted acid = E+ = strong, the acidity drives the reaction) + a. Usually use a strong acid to supply protons, often the strong acid is the protonated solvent. (ROH2 ), (nonproton Lewis acids can also be species with an empty valency such as BH3, BF3, AlCl3, FeBr3, TiCl4, SbF5, etc. which all complex very well with lone pairs.) b. There are no strong electron pair donors in strong acid (bases or nucleophiles are weak). Often the weak base or leaving group is the neutral solvent. (ROH) 5. Is the reaction in base? (The strong base/nucleophile drives the reaction.) a. Usually use a weak acid to supply protons, usually the neutral solvent, (ROH), or other neutral molecule of similar acidity. b. Usually an anion (often the conjugate base of the solvent) acts as the strong nucleophile, strong base or good leaving group (RO --) 6. Are free radicals or one electron transfers involved? Often a photon or neutral (or reduced) metallic compound is part of the reaction. Oxygen or a peroxide can also serve as a free radical initiator. In mechanism problems of our course include the following. 1. Show all lone pairs of electrons 2. Show all formal charge, when present 3. When resonance is a factor in the stability of an intermediate, draw at least one additional resonance structure, including the “best” resonance structure. 4. Show all curved arrows to show the flow of electrons (full headed arrow = 2 electron movement) 5. Any free radical centers if present (half headed/fish hook arrow = 1 electron movement) Z:\classes\316\Organic mechanisms overview\316 arrow pushing practice.doc 4 Mechanism for “Fischer” synthesis of ester - Has catalytic toluene sulfonic acid with removal of water to shift equilibrium to right. tosylsulfonic acid = TsO-H H OHTs H OTs H H O O O O O H H H H H O O O O H H H O O H O H H H H R H O O O H O H H O O O H O O O O H H R H O O O O O R H H O O O Mechanism for hydrolysis of ester in acid - Has catalytic sulfuric acid in large excess of water to shift equilibrium to the right.

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…………………………………………………………….

  • Amide Activation: an Emerging Tool for Chemoselective Synthesis
    Featuring work from the research group of Professor As featured in: Nuno Maulide, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria Amide activation: an emerging tool for chemoselective synthesis Let them stand out of the crowd – Amide activation enables the chemoselective modification of a large variety of molecules while leaving many other functional groups untouched, making it attractive for the synthesis of sophisticated targets. This issue features a review on this emerging field and its application in total synthesis. See Nuno Maulide et al., Chem. Soc. Rev., 2018, 47, 7899. rsc.li/chem-soc-rev Registered charity number: 207890 Chem Soc Rev View Article Online REVIEW ARTICLE View Journal | View Issue Amide activation: an emerging tool for chemoselective synthesis Cite this: Chem. Soc. Rev., 2018, 47,7899 Daniel Kaiser, Adriano Bauer, Miran Lemmerer and Nuno Maulide * It is textbook knowledge that carboxamides benefit from increased stabilisation of the electrophilic carbonyl carbon when compared to other carbonyl and carboxyl derivatives. This results in a considerably reduced reactivity towards nucleophiles. Accordingly, a perception has been developed of amides as significantly less useful functional handles than their ester and acid chloride counterparts. Received 27th April 2018 However, a significant body of research on the selective activation of amides to achieve powerful DOI: 10.1039/c8cs00335a transformations under mild conditions has emerged over the past decades. This review article aims at placing electrophilic amide activation in both a historical context and in that of natural product rsc.li/chem-soc-rev synthesis, highlighting the synthetic applications and the potential of this approach.

  • Property Relationships Acid-Base Chemistry W
    109, Structure & Properties, Acid-Base CHEM 109, Lecture 1 Structure – Property Relationships Acid-Base Chemistry McMurry & Begley (M&B) Chapter 1.1-1.2 (posted on CHEM 109 website) CONCEPT MAP: CHEMICAL STRUCTURE & PROPERTY RELATIONSHIPS WHAT DO WE KNOW WELL & WHAT COULD WE KNOW BETTER? The intention of this exercise is to figure out your current knowledge of the relationship between chemical structures and properties. Perhaps more importantly, we want to identify misconceptions or gaps in knowledge. Learning that you don’t understand something as well as you thought is actually a good thing! This will be based on your knowledge and, eventually, that of your peers. No outside resources such as cell phones, notebooks, textbooks, etc. are necessary. Before Class: Cut out each term on page E1-3 to create a set of cards. Begin to categorize and relate the fundamental general chemistry terms to each other by moving the term cards around. Brainstorm your current understanding of each term on a separate sheet of paper. Draw structures and/or figures to exemplify the term where appropriate (this is appropriate for most terms). Create a concept map (example on next page) with these terms – use the cards, write the terms by hand, or use a digital format such as ThinkSpace or Mindmeister. Add terms and links as necessary to complete your map. There are many, many ways to organize and describe these terms. Do what make sense to you! I can’t stop you from looking up terms on your own, but I’d recommend avoiding this as much as possible.

Yohannan* and Arthur Berrier U.S. Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration Special Testing and Research Laboratory 22624 Dulles Summit Court Dulles, VA 20166 [email: mary.a.yohannan -at- usdoj.gov] ABSTRACT: The formation of imine by-products from phenethylamines, amphetamines, and tryptamines upon an acetone extraction is presented. These imine by-products were characterized using GC/MSD and exhibited preferential cleavage at the α-carbon of the alkyl chain. Further characterization of the imine by-products of phenethylamine and tryptamine was done using IR and NMR. KEYWORDS: phenethylamine, tryptamine, imine, acetone, schiff base, drug chemistry, forensic chemistry In most forensic laboratories, the solvents used to extract at the α-carbon on the alkyl chain. In addition to GC/MS, the drugs are chosen based upon their solubility properties and their imines formed from phenethylamine base and tryptamine base ability to not interact with the drug. In fact, there are very few were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy publications where a solvent used to extract a drug reacts with (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. the drug and forms by-products [1-3]. This laboratory recently discovered that an additional Experimental component was formed when acetone was used to extract a Solvents, Chemicals, and Materials sample containing a known tryptamine. Analysis by gas Acetone was ACS/HPLC grade from Burdick and Jackson chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) of the acetone Laboratories (Muskegon, MI). Phenethylamine base and extract yielded an extra peak in the total ion chromatogram that tryptamine base were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Chemicals was approximately half the abundance of the known tryptamine (Milwaukee, WI).

  • Chapter 18 Amines in Order for a Drug to Be Effective Orally, It Generally
    Chapter 18 Amines In order for a drug to be effective orally, it generally has to be reasonable soluble in water so that it can be transported through the blood. Since amines are weak bases, they are often converted to salts with some acid and therefore may oral drugs have amine salts as part of their structure. One reason for their presence is that they confer some water solubility to the drug. The three-dimensional models show the shapes of amine molecules; notice the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen is not shown but affects the geometry about the nitrogen Primary, secondary and tertiary amines have 1, 2 or 3 alkyl groups attached to nitrogen. In these cases the alkyl group is the methyl In the IUPAC system, STEP 1 Name the longest carbon chain bonded to the N atoms as alkanamines by replacing e of the alkane name with amine. STEP 2 Number the carbon chain to locate the amine group and any substituents. N,N-Dimethylethanamine aminoethane 2-aminopropane 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethane 1-(N-methylamino)propane 2-(N-methylamino)butane Amines can also be names as groups attached to a hydrocarbon Aminobenzene is called aniline NH2 C H H C C C C H H C H NH2 NH2 NH CH3 Cl aniline 3-chloroaniline N-methylaniline aminobenzene 3-chloroaminobenzene N-methylaminobenzene Properties of amines The boiling points of amines are higher than alkanes of similar mass lower than alcohols of similar mass Amines are soluble in water if they have 1 to 5 carbon atoms; the N atom forms hydrogen bonds with the polar O—H bond in water An amine salt forms when an amine
