Apparently, this is due to the presence of two strong
electronꢀwithdrawing C≡N substituents in the dinitrile
structure and, consequently, stronger intramolecular
donor—acceptor interactions in dinitrile 1b.
Experimental
(1ꢀEthoxycarbonylpiperidinꢀ4ꢀylidene)malononitrile (7b).
A mixture of ethyl 4ꢀoxopiperidineꢀ1ꢀcarboxylate 3b (5 g,
0.03 mol), malononitrile (2.97 g, 0.045 mol), ammonium
acetate (0.89 g), and AcOH (2.04 g) was refluxed in benzene
(15 mL) using a Dean—Stark trap for 1.5 h. The reaction mixꢀ
ture was concentrated in vacuo. Ether (50 mL) was added and an
inorganic precipitate was filtered off. The ethereal solution was
washed with a solution of NHCO3 and water (three times),
dried with calcined MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The
yield of dinitrile 7b was 3.2 g (49%), m.p. 79—84 °C. UV (EtOH),
The NMR spectra of compounds 4a,b and 5b were recorded
on a Bruker DRXꢀ500 spectrometer (500.13 (1H) and 125.76
MHz (13C)) in DMSOꢀd6 (4a,b, 5b) and CDCl3 (4a,b) at 30 °C.
Chemical shifts are referenced to the signals for the carbon
atoms (13C) and those for residual protons in CDCl3 (δ 77.0 and
7.27) and DMSOꢀd6 (δ 39.5 and 2.50) (1H). 2D NMR spectra
were recorded as recommended by Bruker standard procedures.
The 1H NMR spectra of compound 7b were recorded on a
Bruker AMꢀ300 instrument (300 MHz) in CDCl3. Mass spectra
(EI) were measured on a Kratos MSꢀ30 instrument (70 eV).
Electronic absorption spectra were recorded on a Specord UVꢀVIS
instrument. The course of the reactions was monitored by UV
spectroscopy.
The electronic absorption spectra of the dyes were recorded
on a Shimadzu UVꢀ101PC spectrophotometer (l = 1 cm).
Emission and excitation spectra were recorded on a Shimadzu
RFꢀ5301PC spectrofluorimeter. Neither emission nor excitaꢀ
tion spectra were corrected for the spectroscopic sensitivity of
the instrument (the optical densities of solutions during the
emission measurements did not exceed 0.1).

dinꢀ4ꢀone (4a). Aminal 2 (0.85 g, 4.9 mmol) was added dropwise
to 1ꢀmethylꢀ4ꢀpiperidone 3a (0.226 g, 2 mmol). The mixture
was heated at 75—80 °C for 50 min. The crystallized mixture
was concentrated in vacuo. Anhydrous ether was added to the
residue and the resulting precipitate was separated and washed
with anhydrous ether. The yield of diamino ketone (4a) was 0.5 g
(90%), red crystals, m.p. 186—188 °C. Found (%): C, 69.70; H,
9.13; N, 15.28. C16H25N3O. Calculated (%): C, 69.81; H, 9.09;

aminoꢀ1,1,3ꢀtrimethoxypropane (6) (0.49 g, 2.8 mmol) was
added dropwise to dinitrile 7b (0.2 g, 0.93 mmol). The reaction
mixture was stirred at 75—80 °C for 3 h, kept at 20—25 °C for a
day, and concentrated in vacuo. Water (10 mL) was added and
a precipitate was filtered off and washed with water and ether.
The precipitate was dissolved in CHCl3 (70 mL) and kept over
SiO2 (L 40/100, 0.4 g) for a day. The silica was separated, the
solution was concentrated, and ether was added to the residue.
The precipitate was filtered off and washed with ether. The yield
of dinitrile 5b was 0.08 g (23%), brown crystals, m.p. >260 °C.
Since compound 5b is a highꢀmelting solid, its elemental analyꢀ
sis failed. UV, λmax/nm (ε): 575 (62 120) (EtOH), 540 (61 290)
