  • Synthesis of Trialkyl 2-Halogeno-1,1,1-Ethanetricarboxylates
    General Papers ARKIVOC 2016 (iv) 352-362 Synthesis of trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1-ethanetricarboxylates Juan Zinczuk* and Gustavo A. Carnavale Instituto de Química Rosario (CONICET-UNR . Facultad de Ciencias Bioquímicas y Farmacéuticas Universidad Nacional de Rosario. Suipacha 531- 2000 Rosario - Argentina E-mail: [email protected] DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3998/ark.5550190.p009.567 Abstract A series of trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1-ethanetricarboxylates (Hal = Cl, Br, I) was obtained in high yields by halomethylenation of trialkyl methanetricarboxylates that in turn were derived from dialkyl malonates. The variables that control the reaction (solvent, temperature, time of reaction, base, and alkylating agent) were adjusted to optimize the yield. This new family of compounds may be considered as synthetic equivalents of the unstable dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates. Keywords: Halomethylenation, dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates, trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1- ethanetricarboxylates, optimized synthesis. Introduction We are interested in the reactivity of metallic homoenolates, formally derived from dialky methylmalonates, and proposed the metallation of the appropriate dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates as a method of preparation. Dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates are scarcely referenced in the literature. The only reported example corresponds to diethyl (bromomethyl)malonate, obtained in impure form by Simonsen by reaction of diethyl (2-methoxymethyl)malonate and hydrobromic acid.1 More recently Dowd and Shapiro improved the compound purity but recognized the sensible nature of the bromo compound.2 The study of the halomethylenation of dialkylmalonates began more than a century. The reaction of diethyl malonate (1) and diiodomethane in the presence of sodium ethoxide was first reported by Guthzeit and Dressel in 1888.3,4 They used a half equivalent of diiodomethane and obtained 84% of tetraethyl 1,1,3,3-propanetetracarboxylate (2).

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

Academic Editors: Igor Reva and Xuefeng Wang Received: 27 April 2019; Accepted: 1 May 2019; Published: 10 May 2019 Abstract: The intermolecular interaction in difluoromethane, dichloromethane, dibromomethane, and diiodomethane dimers has been investigated using high level quantum chemical methods. The potential energy curve of intermolecular interaction along the C··· C bond distance obtained using the coupled-cluster theory with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples excitations CCSD(T) were compared with values given by the same method, but applying the local (LCCSD(T)) and the explicitly correlated (CCSD(T)-F12) approximations. The accuracy of other theoretical methods—Hartree–Fock (HF), second order Møller–Plesset perturbation (MP2), and dispersion corrected DFT theory—were also presented. In the case of MP2 level, the canonical and the local-correlation cases combined with the density-fitting technique (DF-LMP2)theories were considered, while for the dispersion-corrected DFT, the empirically-corrected BLYP-D and the M06-2Xexchange-correlation functionals were applied. In all cases, the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set was used, and the results were corrected for the basis set superposition error (BSSE) using the counterpoise method.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract ABSTRACT This thesis concerns the generation of metal carbenoids, in particular organozinc carbenoids, and their subsequent reactions, such as C-H insertion reactions or cyclopropanation with alkenes. The thesis is divided into three major sections. The introductory chapter presents a comparative review covering metal carbenoid species. The review focuses on how their reactivity is controlled by the metal, the leaving group and by the nature of electron-donating and -withdrawing groups on the carbenoid and finally which type of alkenes give the highest reactivity and yields as a function of these parameters. The results and discussion chapter opens with a brief overview of the organozinc carbenoid chemistry which has been developed within our group.

  • Iodoform - Wikipedia
    6/13/2020 Iodoform - Wikipedia Iodoform Iodoform (also known as triiodomethane and, inaccurately, as carbon triiodide) is the organoiodine compound with the Iodoform formula CHI3. A pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance, it has a penetrating and distinctive odor (in older chemistry texts, the smell is sometimes referred to as that of hospitals, where the compound is still commonly used) and, analogous to chloroform, sweetish taste. It is occasionally used as a disinfectant.

  • Solvation Effects on the A-Band Photodissociation of Dibromomethane: Turning a Photodissociation Into a Photoisomerization†
    10464 J. Phys. Chem. A 2000, 104, 10464-10470 ______________________________________________________________________________________http:\\www.paper.edu.cn Solvation Effects on the A-Band Photodissociation of Dibromomethane: Turning a Photodissociation into a Photoisomerization† Xuming Zheng, Wai Ming Kwok,‡ and David Lee Phillips* Department of Chemistry, The UniVersity of Hong Kong, Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong ReceiVed: March 28, 2000; In Final Form: July 18, 2000 We have obtained A-band resonance Raman spectra of dibromomethane in the gas and solution phase and nanosecond time-resolved resonance Raman spectra of dibromomethane photoproducts. The A-band resonance Raman spectra suggest the short-time dynamics are similar to other dihalomethanes that are known to have direct photodissociation reactions in the gas phase. Several power dependent A-band resonance Raman bands were tentatively assigned to the C-Br stretch overtone progression of the CH2Br radical which has a strong absorption band that is coincident with the A-band resonance Raman excitation wavelength. Two-color nanosecond time-resolved resonance Raman spectra (266.0 nm pump/341.5 nm probe) were obtained and comparison of the vibrational frequencies to the results for density functional theory calculations indicate that the iso-CH2Br-Br species is mainly responsible for the transient photoproduct absorption band ∼360 nm. Our preliminary results for A-band photoexcitation of dibromomethane in conjunction with previously reported diiodomethane results suggest that solvation effects
