The Chemistry of the Aromatic Heterocycles 25_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/5/08 11:48 AM Page 1220 25 25 The Chemistry of the Aromatic Heterocycles Heterocyclic compounds are compounds with rings that contain more than one element. The heterocyclic compounds of greatest interest to organic chemists have rings containing carbon and one or more heteroatoms—atoms other than carbon. Although the chemistry of many saturated heterocyclic compounds is analogous to that of their noncyclic counterparts, a sig- nificant number of unsaturated heterocyclic compounds exhibit aromatic behavior. The re- mainder of this chapter focuses primarily on the unique chemistry of a few of these aromatic heterocycles. The principles that emerge should enable you to understand the chemistry and properties of other heterocyclic compounds that you may encounter. NOMENCLATURE AND STRUCTURE OF 25.1 THE AROMATIC HETEROCYCLES A. Nomenclature The names and structures of some important aromatic heterocyclic compounds are given in Fig. 25.1. This figure also shows how the rings are numbered in substitutive nomenclature. In all but a few cases, a heteroatom is given the number 1. (Isoquinoline is an exception.) As il- lustrated by thiazole and oxazole, the convention is that oxygen and sulfur are given a lower number than nitrogen. Substituent groups are given the lowest number consistent with the ring numbering. (These are the same rules used in numbering and naming saturated heterocyclic compounds; see Secs. 8.1C and 23.1B.)

That is, electrons in the s bonds are pulled toward the oxygen because of itsL electronegativity. This same effect is present in furan, but in addition there is a second effect: the resonance delocalization of the oxygen unshared electrons into the ring shown in Eq. 25.1. This tends to push electrons away from oxygen into the p-electron system of the ring. 1 _ 4 etc. (25.2) O O _3 O 1 1 1 | | dipole moment +=dipole moment net dipole contribution of contribution of moment of C O s bonds p-electron furan L delocalization Because these two effects in furan nearly cancel, furan has a very small dipole moment.

This nitrogen adopts sp2 hybridization and trigonal planar geometry so that its unshared electron pair can occupy a 2p orbital, which has the optimum shape and orientation to overlap with the carbon 2p orbitals and thus to be part of the aro- matic p-electron system. Consequently, the hydrogen of pyrrole lies in the plane of the ring. The oxygen of furan contributes one unshared electron pair to the aromatic p-electron sys- tem, and the other unshared electron pair occupies a position analogous to the carbon– hydrogen bond of pyrrole—in the ring plane, perpendicular to the 2p orbitals of the ring. The empirical resonance energy can be used to estimate the additional stability of a hete- rocyclic compound due to its aromaticity. (This concept was introduced in the discussion of the aromaticity of benzene in Sec. 15.7C.) The empirical resonance energies of benzene and some heterocyclic compounds are given in Table 25.1. To the extent that resonance energy is a measure of aromatic character, furan has the least aromatic character of the heterocyclic compounds in the table. The modest resonance energy of furan has significant consequences for its reactivity, as we’ll learn in Sec. 25.3B.

    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.

  • A SCF MO Treatment of Some Tropone Derivatives* M
    CROATICA CHEMICA ACTA 42 (1 97 0) 1 <CCA-565 539.19:547.5 Original Scientific Paper A SCF MO Treatment of Some Tropone Derivatives* M. J. S. Dewar and N. Trinajstić** Department of Chemistry, The University of Texas, Austin, Texas 78712, U.S.A. R e c e iv e d A u g u s t 9, 1969 Recent work in these laboratories has led to the development of a semiempirical SCF MO treatment which seems to give extremely good results for ground States of conjugated molecules of ali kinds composed of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. We have now applied this treatment to a problem of current interest, namely the structures of tropolone and tropone deri­ vatives. The calculations lead to the conclusion that neither of these ring systems is in itself aromatic, while tropone is now re- cognized to be polyenoid, tropolone still seems to be generally regarded as aromatic. This belief, however, arose from the behavior of tropolone derivatives in strong acid solution, where they exist as hydroxy tropylium derivatives, or in alkali where they form mesomeric anions. Calculated heats of formation, resonance ener- gies, and bond lengths are reported. INTRODU CTION Some time ago one of us1 concluded on the basis of available Chemical <evidence that stipitatic acid and colchicine must contain a novel aromatic system, tropolone (I), containing a seven-membered ring. Subsequent work not only confirmed this conclusion but also led to the synthesis of tropolone2 itself, and of the related tropone3 (II); both these compounds seemed to show stability characteristics of typical aromatic systems, and it was quickly realized that this might be due to the fact that both I and II can be regarded as deri­ vatives of the tropylium ion, C7H7+, which Hiickel4 in 1931 had predicted to be aromatic, a prediction which has been fully confirmed.5 However although an enormous amount of experimental work has been carried out since then on the synthesis and properties of numerous tropone and tropolone derivatives, very few theoretical studies seem as yet to have been reported.

Heterocyclic atoms: – nitrogen, N – sulphur, S – oxygen, O – phosphorus, P – barium, Ba – zinc, Zn – silicon, Si. 2 Heterocyclic compounds From the biological point of view, the most important are heterocyclic compounds with 5- and 6-membered rings, containing: S, N, O. Most of the heterocyclic compounds have their common names. Substituent’s position in the ring is described by : – number – position of heteroatom – no. 1 – Greek letter – describes carbon atom the closest to heteroatom as a, then β and γ, respectively. 3 Heterocyclic compounds Heterocyclic compounds are: • widespread in nature • biologically active • some of them are toxic (e.g. coniine, coumarin and derivatives).
