Chem., Vol. 85, No. 11, pp. 2077–2087, 2013. http://dx.doi.org/10.1351/PAC-CON-12-11-06 © 2013 IUPAC, Publication date (Web): 20 May 2013 Some highs and lows (and in-betweens) of solubility measurements of solid electrolytes* Glenn Hefter Chemistry Department, Murdoch University, Murdoch, WA 6150, Australia Abstract: Recent solubility measurements of a variety of solid electrolytes in water and aque- ous solutions in the author’s laboratories are reviewed. The experimental challenge of per- forming such measurements with high accuracy is demonstrated using the solubility of solid sodium chloride in water at near-ambient temperatures as a paradigm. The special difficul- ties of measuring low solubilities are demonstrated using Pb(II) sulfate in various aqueous solutions and Pb(II) oxide in sodium hydroxide solutions, and the usefulness of such meas- urements for obtaining reliable information on homogeneous reactions in solution is briefly discussed. It is also shown, using the alkali metal triflate salts as examples, that determina- tion of the solubilities of even highly soluble salts can be problematic. Lastly, data for the sol- ubilities of a series of sodium carboxylate salts of industrial relevance are discussed and are used to illustrate why the theoretical prediction of solid electrolyte solubilities remains such a challenge. Keywords: aqueous solutions; carboxylate; electrolytes; lead(II); salts; sodium chloride; sol- ubility; triflate. INTRODUCTION The solubilities of substances in solvents are among the oldest of physicochemical measurements [1]. While they would not have been recognized as such at the time, these measurements certainly included the solubilities of solid electrolytes (“salts”) in water.

  • Formal Synthesis of (+/-) Morphine Via an Oxy-Cope/Claisen/Ene Reaction Cascade
    Formal Synthesis of (+/-) Morphine via an Oxy-Cope/Claisen/Ene Reaction Cascade by Joel Marcotte Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science The University of Ottawa August, 2012 © Joel Marcotte, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 ABSTRACT For years now, opium alkaloids and morphinans have been attractive synthetic targets for numerous organic chemists due to their important biological activity and interesting molecular architecture. Morphine is one of the most potent analgesic drugs used to alleviate severe pain. Our research group maintains a longstanding interest in tandem pericyclic reactions such as the oxy-Cope/Claisen/ene reaction cascade and their application to the total synthesis of complex natural products. Herein we report the ventures towards the formal synthesis of (+/-)-morphine based on the novel tandem oxy- Cope/Claisen/ene reaction developed in our laboratory. These three highly stereoselective pericyclic reactions occurring in a domino fashion generate the morphinan core structure 2 via precursor 1 after only 7 steps. The formal synthesis culminated in the production of 3 after a total of 18 linear steps, with an overall yield of 1.0%, successfully intersecting two previous syntheses of the alkaloids, namely the ones of Taber (2002) and Magnus (2009). ii À ma famille, sans qui rien de cela n’aurait été possible iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to start by thanking my supervisor Dr. Louis Barriault, who has been my mentor in chemistry for the past three years. I am grateful for his guidance, patience and encouragements, especially when facing the many challenges that awaited me on this project.

  • Synthesis of Lycodine-Type Lycopodium Alkaloids Using C-H Functionalization Tactics by James Neel Newton a Dissertation Submitte
    Synthesis of Lycodine-Type Lycopodium Alkaloids Using C-H Functionalization Tactics by James Neel Newton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERISTY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in charge: Professor Richmond Sarpong, Chair Professor F. Dean Toste Professor Leonard Bjeldanes Spring 2015 Abstract Synthesis of Lycodine-Type Lycopodium Alkaloids Using C-H Functionalization Tactics By James Neel Newton Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor Richmond Sarpong, Chair This dissertation describes our syntheses of several lycodine-type Lycopodium alkaloids by the late-stage C-H functionalization of lycodine derivatives. Lycodine-type alkaloids are well-known for their neurological activity. For example, huperzine A is a potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor and the complanadine family of molecules has been shown to induce the secretion of Nerve Growth Factor. Due to these properties, lycodine-type alkaloids serve as interesting lead compounds for the development of new therapies for neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Unsurprisingly, these molecules have attracted the attention of the synthetic community. Chapter 1 reviews syntheses of lycodine-type Lycopodium alkaloids with particular emphasis on the syntheses of biologically active congeners. Chapter 2 describes our synthesis of complanadine B, an unsymmetrical dimer of lycodine, using two approaches. In the first, the requisite skeletal oxygenation was installed early in the synthetic sequence. Our second approach utilized a blocking group strategy to enable the late-stage oxygenation of the complanadine skeleton by preventing oxygenation at undesired sites. Chapter 3 describes our efforts toward the synthesis of the casuarinine family of Lycopodium alkaloids by the late-stage C-H functionalization of lycodine derivatives.

Received: 7 March 2012; in revised form: 13 April 2012 / Accepted: 13 April 2012 / Published: 7 May 2012 Abstract: A solvent- and halogen-free synthesis of high purity triflate ionic liquids via direct alkylation of organic bases (amines, phosphines or heterocyclic compounds) with methyl and ethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (methyl and ethyl triflate) has been developed. Cheap and non-toxic dimethyl and diethyl carbonate serve as source for the methyl and ethyl groups in the preparation of methyl and ethyl triflate by this invented process. The properties of ionic liquids containing the triflate anion are determined and discussed. Keywords: methyl triflate; ethyl triflate; ionic liquids; viscosity 1.

  • Enolate Chemistry
    Prof. Dr. Burkhard König, Institut für Organische Chemie, Uni Regensburg 1 Enolate Chemistry 1. Some Basics In most cases the equilibrium lies almost completely on the side of the ketone. The ketone tautomer is electrophilic and reacts with nucleophiles: The enol tautomer is nucleophilic and reacts with electrophiles. There are two possible products - enols are ambident nucleophiles: The nucleophilic enol tautomer (and especially the enolate variant) is one of the most important reactive species for C-C bond formation. Treat a ketone with an appropriate base and can get deprotonation at the α-position to form an enolate: Enolates are synthetically much more useful than enols (although they react analogously). Imine anions and eneamines are synthetic equivalents of enolate anions. Li N N H H Imine anion eneamine By knowing the pKa values of the relevant acidic protons it is possible to predict suitable bases for forming the corresponding enolates. Prof. Dr. Burkhard König, Institut für Organische Chemie, Uni Regensburg 2 Some Important pKa Values - - - O O HC N HC3 NO2 H2CN+ 2 + O O pKa ~ 10 - Enolates are nucleophiles and ketones are electrophiles - therefore there is always the potential problem for self condensation. If this is desirable we need to use a base which does not completely deprotonate the carbonyl compound i.e. set up an equilibrium. This is best achieved when the pKa of the carbonyl group and conjugate acid (of the base) are similar: Prof. Dr. Burkhard König, Institut für Organische Chemie, Uni Regensburg 3 pKa (tBuOH) ~ 18. A stronger base. pKa difference of 2. Ratio of ketone to enolate will be of the order 100:1 i.e.

  • Boron Enolate of Tert-Butyl Methyl Ketone
    5834 Organometallics 2007, 26, 5834-5839 Synthesis and Structural Characterization of the Bis(diisopropylamino)boron Enolate of tert-Butyl Methyl Ketone Lili Ma,† Russell Hopson,† Deyu Li,† Yong Zhang,‡ and Paul G. Williard*,† Department of Chemistry, Brown UniVersity, ProVidence, Rhode Island 02912 and Department of Chemistry, Boston UniVersity, 590 Commonwealth AVenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02215 ReceiVed July 5, 2007 Lithium, sodium, and potassium enolates reacted with bisaminoboron halides to give bisaminoboron enolates 1a-5c. Specifically, the potassium enolate of tert-butyl methyl ketone reacted with bis- (diisopropylamino)boron chloride in THF at room temperature within1htogive the bis(diisopropylamino)- boron enolate of tert-butyl methyl ketone (3b)in61-84% isolated yields. Under similar conditions, the reactivity is highly dependent on the metal employed to generate enolates (K > Na > Li) as well as the nitrogen substituents in the bisaminoboron halides (iPr > Et > TMS). This latter observation is a compromise between the boron-nitrogen resonance and the steric effect. The structural information of enolate 3b was studied in detail. Unlike the aggregated alkali-metal enolates, this boron enolate exists exclusively as a monomer in both the solid and solution states, as identified by X-ray and diffusion- ordered NMR. Introduction Table 1. Conditions for Bisaminoboron Enolates from Bisaminoboron Chlorides and Metal Enolates Boron enolates enjoy widespread use in synthetic organic chemistry due to the relatively mild conditions used to generate these intermediates and the stereoselectivity observed in both the enolization reaction and the subsequent aldol reactions.1 The most widely utilized asymmetric synthetic methodology involv- ing boron enolates developed from the extensive studies of Evans and co-workers beginning 30 years ago.2 H.
