    POLYMETHYLENE PYRIDINES , A thesis submitted by David Robert Brittain in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OP PHILOSOPHY in the University of London Organic Chemistry Department, dune, 1965. Imperial College, LONDON, S.W.7. ABSTRACT This thesis describes a series of attempts to syn- thesise 2,5- and 1,4-polymethylene bridged pyridines. Nuclear magnetic resonance theory predicts that protons, which are held directly over an aromatic ring, will be abnormally shielded compared with protons in aliphatic straight-chain hydrocarbons. This prediction has been verified for the central methylene protons of paracyclo- phanes. The degree of shielding, expressed in terms of the distance from the aromatic ring, is a measure of the induced ring current and hence the aromaticity of the benzene ring. Similar measurements upon 2,5- or 1,4— polymethylene bridged pyridines would make it possible to determine the degree of aromaticity of the pyridine ring relative to benzene. A review of the subject of aromaticity is presented in which special reference has been made to its inter- pretation by nuclear magnetic resonance. The synthetic work has not been brougL.t to a truly satisfactory conclusion. However, the synthetic routes to 2,5-dialkylpyridines have been thoroughly investigated and a wide variety of such compounds prepared. The functional groups at the ends of the alkyl chains have been varied in an effort to produce a derivative which would cyclise to give a 2,5-bridged pyridine. The attempted intramolecular oxidative coupling of 2,5-dihex- 51 -ynylpyridine received much attention. In the attempts to obtain a 1,4-bridged pyridine, two tricyclic compounds, each containing two quaternised pyridine rings linked by polymethylene chains, were obtained.

Caracterização Qu´ımica, IPEN, 05508-900 São Paulo, SP, Brazil Received 3 October 2000; received in revised form 21 December 2000; accepted 28 December 2000 Abstract Many efforts have been made to develop new catalysts to oxidize cyclohexane under mild conditions. Herein, we review the most interesting systems for this process with different oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide, tert-butyl hydroperoxide and molecular oxygen. Using H2O2, Na-GeX has been shown to be a most stable and active catalyst. Mesoporous TS-1 and Ti-MCM-41 are also stable, but the use of other metals such as Cr, V, Fe and Mo leads to leaching of the metal. Homogeneous systems based on binuclear manganese(IV) complexes have also been shown to be interesting. When t-BuOOH is used, the active systems are those phthalocyanines based on Ru, Co and Cu and polyoxometalates of dinuclear ruthenium and palladium.

  • Photoremovable Protecting Groups Used for the Caging of Biomolecules
    1 1 Photoremovable Protecting Groups Used for the Caging of Biomolecules 1.1 2-Nitrobenzyl and 7-Nitroindoline Derivatives John E.T. Corrie 1.1.1 Introduction 1.1.1.1 Preamble and Scope of the Review This chapter covers developments with 2-nitrobenzyl (and substituted variants) and 7-nitroindoline caging groups over the decade from 1993, when the author last reviewed the topic [1]. Other reviews covered parts of the field at a similar date [2, 3], and more recent coverage is also available [4–6]. This chapter is not an exhaustive review of every instance of the subject cages, and its principal focus is on the chemistry of synthesis and photocleavage. Applications of indi- vidual compounds are only briefly discussed, usually when needed to put the work into context. The balance between the two cage types is heavily slanted to- ward the 2-nitrobenzyls, since work with 7-nitroindoline cages dates essentially from 1999 (see Section 1.1.3.2), while the 2-nitrobenzyl type has been in use for 25 years, from the introduction of caged ATP 1 (Scheme 1.1.1) by Kaplan and co-workers [7] in 1978.

  • Diels-Alder Reaction Between Naphthalene and N-Phenylmaleimide Under Ambient and High Pressure Conditions
    Issue in Honor of Prof. Alexander I. Konovalov ARKIVOC 2004 (xii) 70-79 Diels-Alder reaction between naphthalene and N-phenylmaleimide under ambient and high pressure conditions Gulnara G. Iskhakova*, Vladimir D. Kiselev, Elena A. Kashaeva, Lubov’ N. Potapova, Evgeny A. Berdnikov, Dmitry B. Krivolapov, and Igor A. Litvinov A. M. Butlerov Chemical Institute, Kazan State University, Kremlevskaya str.18, 420008 Kazan, Russian Federation E-mail: [email protected] Dedicated to the 70th anniversary of Professor Alexander I. Konovalov (received 02 Nov 04; accepted 08 Jan 05; published on the web 05 Feb 05) Abstract The rate and equilibrium constants for the Diels-Alder reactions between benzene and naphthalene as dienes and tetracyanoethylene, maleic anhydride and N-phenylmaleimide as dienophiles at 25 °С were estimated from empirical rule. The highest yield of the adduct was predicted for the reaction of naphthalene with N-phenylmaleimide. The time of adduct formation in 50% yield exceeds 30 years. The use of gallium chloride as a catalyst affords the exo-adduct for seven days at room temperature. The rate ((2±0.5)•10-6 L mol-1 s-1) and equilibrium constants (5±2 L mol-1) of this reaction were determined. Under high pressure conditions (8 kbar) reaction occurs with formation of both stereo isomers at 100 °С during 80 hours. Keywords: Naphthalene, Diels-Alder reaction, catalysis, high pressure Introduction 1 Many dienes, including substituted benzenes and naphthalenes, are known to form molecular complexes of the π,π-type due to the interaction of the highest occupied π-orbital of a diene- donor with the lowest unoccupied π-orbital of a dienophile-acceptor.

  • Chem 267. Cyclohexene. (Revised 7/10). in This Experiment You Will
    Chem 267. Cyclohexene. (revised 7/10). In this experiment you will synthesize cyclohexene and purify it by distillation. You will check the purity and identity of the product by gas chromatography (GC) and infrared spectroscopy (IR). You will also do some simple chemical tests which distinguish alkenes from alkanes. Review the chapter on distillation and your notes from the distillation experiment. The "Things to Watch Out For in Distillations" listed for the distillation experiment are common to this distillation as well. As always, use care when inserting the thermometer into the thermometer adaptor. Hold the thermometer close to the adaptor and push and twist gently. Breakage could result in a serious injury. Check for frayed connectors and cracked flasks. Cyclohexene has a disagreeable odor, characteristic of volatile alkenes. Allow the apparatus to cool before disassembling it in the hood, and dispose of the wastes in the hood in the PROPER CONTAINERS (see below). Rinse the apparatus with a LITTLE acetone and dispose of that in the Nonhalogenated Liquid Waste container. CAUTION: cyclohexene is very flammable. Handle phosphoric acid with care. It is corrosive to tissue. If your skin comes into contact with phosphoric acid, wash the contaminated area immediately with water, then soap and water. Clean up spills immediately using the sodium bicarbonate in the hood. Do the Prelab Exercise on p. 334 (a model of a flow sheet is on p. 142). This is something to do for all synthesis experiments. Also always prepare a table of reactants and products such as that shown in the handout, “Sample Notebook and Report”.

  • Classification Tests for Hydrocarbons Using Solubility, Ignition, Nitration, Baeyer’S Test, Bromine Test and Basic Oxidation Test
    CLASSIFICATION TESTS FOR HYDROCARBONS USING SOLUBILITY, IGNITION, NITRATION, BAEYER’S TEST, BROMINE TEST AND BASIC OXIDATION TEST Jasher Christian Boado, Alyanna Cacas, Phoebe Calimag, Caryl Angelica Chin, Haidee Cosilet, John Francis Creencia Group 2, 2BMT, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Santo Tomas ABSTRACT Hydrocarbons are classified as saturated, actively unsaturated, aromatic or an arene based on various classification tests involving test for solubility in concentrated H2SO4, ignition, active unsaturation using Baeyer’s test and Bromine test, aromaticity using nitration test, and basic oxidation test. This experiment aims to differentiate the intrinsic physical and the chemical properties of hydrocarbons, and to determine if it is saturated, actively unsaturated, aromatic or an arene. The sample compounds hexane, heptane, cyclohexane, cyclohexene, benzene and toluene were analyzed for their physical state in room temperature, color, and odor. Using solubility test, a drop of a sample was added cautiously into 1ml of concentrated H2SO4. Using the Baeyer’s Test and/or Bromine test in which 2 drops of 2% KmnO4 solution and 10 drops of 0.5% Br2 in CCl4 reagent, respectively, was added into 5 drops of a sample in a dry test tube, was shaken vigourously until the reagent is decolorized compared with water. Using Nitration test, 8 drops of nitrating mixture was added into 5 drops of a sample in a dry test tube, was observed for the formation of a yellow oily layer or droplet and was diluted with 20 drops of water. Using Basic Oxidation test, 8 drops of 2% KmnO4 solution and 3 drops of 10% NaOH solution was added into 4 drops of a sample in a dry test tube and was heated in a water bath for 2 minutes.

  • II. Nomenclature Rules for Alkenes 1. the Parent Name Will Be the Longest
    1 Lecture 9 II. Nomenclature Rules For Alkenes 1. The parent name will be the longest carbon chain that contains both carbons of the double bond. Drop the -ane suffix of the alkane name and add the –ene suffix. Never name the double bond as a prefix. If a double bond is present, you have an alkene, not an alkane. alkane + -ene = alkene 2. Begin numbering the chain at the end nearest the double bond. Always number through the double bond and identify its position in the longest chain with the lower number. In the older IUPAC rules the number for the double bond was placed in front of the stem name with a hyphen. Under the newer rules, the number for the double bond is placed right in front of “ene”, with hyphens. We will use the newer rules for specifying the location of pi bonds. 1 2 3456 H3CCHCH CH 2 CH2 CH3 hex-2-ene (newer rules) 2-hexene (older rules) 3.
