- Reactions of perfluoroalkyl iodides with CC-multiple bonds induced by transition metal centers
-
Additions of perfluoroalkyl iodides RFI to 1-alkenes can be catalyzed by transition metals, especially by noble metals such as ruthenium or platinum.Complexes of group VI-VIII metals in low oxidation states are even more effective and may also be employed for the addition of RFI to alkynes.Heterogeneous metal catalysts facilitate the transfer of the perfluoroalkyl group from RFI to aromatic ring systems.Iodo-perfluoroalkanes 1 belong to the most important intermediates in organofluorine chemistry.The addition of 1 to alkenes according to is known to be a radical process which can be initiated by means of heat, UV- or γ-radiation, electrocatalysis or by organic azo or peroxo compounds.We found that this type of reactions can generally be carried out using two kinds of transition metal catalysts.

- Cap-and-tag solid phase oligosaccharide synthesis
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) A new "cap-and-tag" strategy is applied to solid phase oligosaccharide synthesis. Acetyl-capping and fluorous-tagging allowed for the facile separation of the desired F-tagged oligosaccharide from the acetyl-capped deletion sequences using fluorous solid phase extraction. To illustrate this approach, a protected Glc-β-(1→6) -Man-α-(1→6)-Glc-β-1→pentenyl trisaccharide was synthesized.

- Coupling between a fluorinated olefin and a perfluorinated iodide: A model study on the reaction mechanism of perfluorinated polymer cross-linking
-
In a model study, 1H, 19C, 13 C-1H and 1H-1H correlated NMR techniques confirm a Markovnikov type reaction intermediate for the major coupling products between a short, low MW perfluorinated iodide C2F5I (I) and a short, low MW fluorinated olefin CF3(CF2)7CH=CH2 (II). The reaction is peroxide induced (di-t-butyl peroxide, DTBP) and is conducted at 140 °C for a 3 h reaction time in a sealed glass ampoule. Side reaction products due to the reaction of DTBP with radical reaction intermediates were also observed and identified. The study aimed to mimic as closely as possible the peroxide-initiated coupling reaction between an iodine terminated fluoropolymer (model compound I) and its fluorinated di-olefin coupling agent (model compound II). A mono-olefin was chosen to simplify the model reaction.

- Application of trimethylvinylsilane as a convenient synthetic precursor of (perfluoroalkyl)ethenes: An unusual fluoride-induced elimination-desilylation coupled reaction
-
(equation presented) A convenient and effective method for the preparation of perfluoroalkylated ethenes is described. First, the free radical addition of perfluoroalkyl iodides to trimethylvinylsilane in the presence of AIBN gave iodoethylsilane intermediates (F(CF2)nCH2CHISiMe3, n = 4 (1), 6 (2),8 (3), 10 (4); 94-99%). Then an unusual dehydrohalogenation-desilylation reaction was effected by tetrabutylammonium fluoride, and finally the product isolation (F(CF2)nCH=CH2 (5-8), 62-87%) was facilitated using a fluorous phase separation technique. This novel approach can also be applied to adjust short C2 hydrocarbon units to functionalized fluorinated segments (e.g., HOCH2(CF2)8CH=CH2 (11), 71%). All structures were verified by state-of-the-art multinuclear one- and two-dimensional NMR experiments involving both homo-(19F-19F) and heteronuclear (1H-13C, 19F-13C) correlations based on the GMQFCOPS and inverse 1H and/or 19F detected GHSQC, GHMQC sequences with broad-band adiabatic 13C decoupling.

- Free-radical addition of 2-(perfluoroalkyl)ethanethiols to alkenes, alkadienes, cycloalkenes, alkynes and vinyl monomers
-
The free-radical addition of 2-(perfluoroalkyl)ethanethiols (RFCH2CH2SH) to alkenes, cycloalkenes, alkadienes and alkynes has been studied to determine: (1) the mode of reaction, i.e. the stereochemistry, regiochemistry and any skeletal changes: (2) the relative reactivity towards unsaturates of differing structures and classes as affected by the presence of the RF group; and (3) the influence of the reaction conditions on the rate of addition or selectivity for different products.Adducts from 2-(F-hexyl)ethanethiol (1) and alkenes have been obtained in high yield,but containing small amounts of regio isomers.For example compound 1 with 1-heptene gave 1-heptane (3, 96percent yield) as well as 2-heptane (4, O.61percent) and 3-heptane (5, 2.22percent). 1,6-Hexadiene and 1,7-octadiene gave chiefly linear adducts, i.e.RFCH2CH2S(CH2)nCH=CH2 (7, n=4; or 12, n=6, respectively) and RFCH2CH2S(CH2)nSCH2CH2RF (8, n=6; or 14, n=8, respectively).A small amount (2-3percent) of cis- and trans-1-methyl-cyclohexane (13) isomers were present in 12.Compound 1 with 1,6-heptadiene gave 7--1-heptene (9), the bis adduct, 1,7-bis-heptane (11) and the cyclic adducts, cis- and trans-1-methal-2-methylcyclopentane (10).The relative amounts of cyclic isomers depended on the reactant ratio.Compound 1 added readily with free-radical initiation to vinyl monomers such as styrene and vinyl acetate, and to phenyl acetylene, propargyl acetate and ethyl propynoate.These new addition products are useful as models for further study.

- Reaction of Perfluoroalkyl Iodides with Electron Donor Nucleophiles. Addition of Perfluoroalkyl Iodides to Olefins Initiated by Electron Transfer
-
The radical chain addition of primary and secondary perfluoroalkyl iodides to olefins is initiated by sodium arene- and alkanesulfinates.The process occurs at room temperature and is favored by the use of dipolar aprotic solvents.The reaction of perfluorooctyl iodide with sodium p-toluenesulfinate in the absence of olefin requires higher temperatures and gives only 1-H-perfluorooctane; no anion-perfluoroalkyl radical coupling products were detected.Reaction of perfluorooctyl iodide with the sodium salt of diethyl methylmalonate also gives no coupling product; only 1-H-perfluorooctane and a dimer of the malonate anion are produced.These results are compared with the reaction of perfluoroalkyl iodides with nitronate and thiolate anions where formation of SRN1 substitution products was observed.

- Lysosomotropic Agents. 4. Carbobenzoxyglycylphenylalanyl, a New Protease-Sensitive Masking Group for Introduction into Cells
-
Bioactive primary and secondary amines, when acylated with the Z-Gly-Phe group, are transported into pinocytic cells, such as macrophages, P-815 mastocytoma, SV-40 3T3, and leukemia 1210, much faster than the parent compounds.Amines, such as lysosomotropic detergents and nitrogen mustard, which are deactivated by acylation, are unmasked by enzymic action intracellularly, probably in lysosomes because an acidic pH maximum in activity exists which acts only on the L isomer.The added polarity and molecular weight brought about by acylation prevents the amines' normally facile entry into cells by simple diffusion, restricting it to an active-transport mechanism.
