- Unexpected formation of acylformamidines by reaction of primary carboxamides with MeONa in DMF in the presence of CHCl3
-
Dichlorocarbene, which is generated by reaction of CHCl3 with MeONa, is likely to chlorinate DMF to produce tile Vilsmeier-Haack-Arnold salt that in the presence of excess MeONa, gives DMF dimethylacetal (2). This latter reacts with primary amides to yield the corresponding N,N-dimethyl-N'-acylformamidines. Solid state structure of N-[(dimethylamino)methylene]phenoxyacetamide (4) obtained by X-ray crystallography is also reported.

- Selective production of difluoromethyl methyl ether from chlorodifluoromethane using alkali metal carbonates
-
CHF2OCH3 (HFE-152a), an important starting material for synthesizing various C2 hydrofluoroethers and a prospective alternative to CH3CF2Cl (HCFC-142b), has been found to be effectively produced from the reaction of CHF2Cl (HCFC-22) with alkali metal carbonates in methanol. Some alkali metal carbonates induce selective production of CHF2OCH3 with a small amount of CH(OCH3)3, a major side product. Activities of alkali metal carbonates for producing CHF2OCH3 are in the order of K2CO3 > Na2CO3 > Li2CO3, suggesting that the solubility and ionization tendency of alkali metal carbonate in methanol play important roles in the reaction.

- Reactions of dimethoxycarbene and fluoromethoxycarbene with hydroxyl compounds. Absolute rate constants and the heat of formation of dimethoxycarbene
-
Dimethoxycarbene [(MeO)2C] and fluoromethoxycarbene (FCOMe) were photochemically generated from the appropriate diazirines (2a and 2b) and characterized by UV and IR spectroscopy in cold matrices and by UV in solution at 20-25°C. Laser flash photolytic studies determined rate constants for the reactions of the carbenes with ethanol, methanol, chloroethanol, fluoroethanol, trifluoroethanol, hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol, and acetic acid. The reactivity of (MeO)2C with the alcohols spanned 4 orders of magnitude, with kψ for carbene decay in 1 M ROH/CH3CN ranging from 3.2 X 104 S-1 (ethanol) to 6.7 X 108 S-1 (hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol). A Bronsted correlation (α = 0.66) was obtained between log kψ for the decay of (MeO)2C in 1 M ROH/CH3CN and the pK(a) of ROH (in water). FCOMe was much less reactive toward ROH than (MeO)2C; only with hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol (kψ ~9 X 103 s-1 for carbene decay in 1 M ROH/CH3CN) could quenching be observed. Products of some of the carbene/alcohol reactions were characterized. A photoacoustic calorimetry study of the (MeO)2/MeOH reaction afforded ΔH(f) ~ -61 kcal/mol for (MeO)2C;ΔH(f) for FCOMe was estimated at ~ -53 to -56 kcal/mol. The mechanism(s) of the carbene/O-H insertion reactions are discussed. The results of ab initio and semiempirical molecular orbital calculations on FCOMe are presented.

- Orthoester exchange: A tripodal tool for dynamic covalent and systems chemistry
-
Reversible covalent reactions have become an important tool in supramolecular chemistry and materials science. Here we introduce the acid-catalyzed exchange of O,O,O-orthoesters to the toolbox of dynamic covalent chemistry. We demonstrate that orthoesters readily exchange with a wide range of alcohols under mild conditions and we disclose the first report of an orthoester metathesis reaction. We also show that dynamic orthoester systems give rise to pronounced metal template effects, which can best be understood by agonistic relationships in a three-dimensional network analysis. Due to the tripodal architecture of orthoesters, the exchange process described herein could find unique applications in dynamic polymers, porous materials and host-guest architectures.

- Orthoamides. LIV. Contributions to the chemistry of azavinylogous orthoformic acid amide derivatives
-
The azavinylogous aminalester 3 reacts with primary amines to give amidines 5 and 6. In the reaction of 3 with aniline the azavinylogous amidine 7 is produced additionally to the amidine 5c. Ethylendiamine is formylated at both aminogroups, the bis-amidine 8 thus formed is transformed to the salts 9a,b. Benzoxazole and benzimidazole can be prepared from 3 and o-aminophenol and o-phenylenediamine, resp. Carboxylic acid amides, urea, thiourea, aromatic acid hydrazides 17 and the sulfonylhydrazide 19 are formylated by 3 at nitrogen to give N-acylated formamidines 14, 16, 18, 20. From 3 and aliphatic acid hydrazides 17 and alkylhydrazines, resp., can be obtained 1,2,4-triazole 21 and 1-alkyl-1,2,4-triazoles 22a,b, resp. N.N-Dimethylcyanacetamide (32) reacts with 3 and the orthoamide 4a, resp., to give a mixture of the formylated compound 34 and the amidine 33. The reaction conditions are of low influence on the ratio in which 33 and 34 are formed. The orthoamide 4b and 32 react to afford a mixture of the amidine 35 and the enamine 36. Hydrogen-sulfide acts on 3 giving N,N-dimethylthioformamide (37). From 3 and 1-alkynes 41 can be prepared the amidines 42. Hydrolysis of 42b affords phenylpropiolaldehyde (43). The alkylation of the aminalester 3 gives rise to the formation of vinylogous amidinium salts 1c and 1d, resp., additionally is formed the amide acetal 2a. The salt 1d can also be prepared from 3 and borontrifluoride-ether. Iodide reacts with N,N-dimethylformamide acetals 12a,b in an unclear, complicated manner giving orthoesters 53, N,N-dimethylformamide, alkyliodides, alcohols, ammonium iodides 46 and carbondioxide. The action of halogens on 3 affords the salts 1a,b,c,e,f depending on the chosen stoichiometric ratio. Aromatic aldehydes are suited for trapping azavinylogous carbenes formed on thermolysis of 3; 1,3-oxazoles 69 are the reaction products. From 3 and propionaldehyde the amidine 65 can be obtained with low yield. Carbondisulfide transforms 3 to the azavinylogous salt 66. The preparation of the azavinylogous orthoamide 4a is described. The thermolysis of 3 and 4a, resp., gives rise to the formation of the triaminopyrimidine 67. Treatment of 1a with lithium diisopropylamide affords the triaminopyrazine 68, which can also be obtained by thermolysis of 3 in the presence of sodium hydride. Azavinylogous carbenes are thought to be the intermediates. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2000.

- Acetal formation from methyl formate, pinacolone, and benzophenone: equilibrium constants in methanol and water determined by a chain of transacetalization equilibria

Transacetalization equilibrium constants can be measured in methanol solution.This allows a ladder of equilibrium constants to be constructed from acetophenone, for which the equilibrium constant for acetal formation has been measured in methanol, to methyl formate, for which it has not.This is the first direct measurement of an equilibrium constant for formation of an acetal of an acyclic ester.We have also determined equilibrium constants for acetal formation from benzophenone and pinacolone.The value for benzophenone is inconsistent with the value reported for the diethyl acetal by Pfeiffer and Adkins (G.J.Pfeiffer and H.Adkins.J.Am.Chem.Soc. 53, 1043 (1931)).We must conclude that their analytical method was subject to systematic errors.

-
The technically important α-methoxylation of aliphatic ethers and acetals to form mixed acetals respectively aldehydes or ortho-esters can be performed electrochemically at low potentials in methanol solution using an undivided cell and tris(2,4-dibromophenyl)amine as redox catalyst.The regioselectivity is usually considerably higher as compared with direct electrolysis in the abscence of a catalyst.Especially valuable is the method for the regioselective methoxylation of secondary carbon atoms in presence of primary or tertiary ones and of the acetal carbon in 1,3-dioxolanes.The redox catalyst is stable under the reaction conditions so that more than thousand turnovers could be obtained.
