The broad band UV photochemistry of acetylacetaldehyde, the hybrid form between malonaldehyde and acetylacetone (the two other most simple molecules exhibiting an intramolecular proton transfer), trapped in four cryogenic matrices, neon, nitrogen, argon, and xenon, has been studied by IRTF spectroscopy. These experimental results have been supported by B3LYP/6-311G++(2d,2p) calculations in order to get S0 minima together with their harmonic frequencies. On those minima, we have also calculated their vibrationally resolved UV absorption spectra at the time-dependent DFT ωB97XD/6-311++G(2d,2p) level. After deposition, only the two chelated forms are observed while they isomerize upon UV irradiation toward nonchelated species. From UV irradiation effects we have identified several nonchelated isomers, capable, in turn, of isomerizing and fragmenting, even if this last phenomenon seems to be most unlikely due to cryogenic cages confinement. On the basis of these findings, we have attempted a first approach to the reaction path of electronic relaxation. It appeared that, as with acetylacetone, the path of electronic relaxation seems to involve triplet states.

The synthesis of 5-hydroxy-1-aminopyrroline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives and 5-unsubstituted-1-aminopyrrole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives from 1,2-diaza-1,3-butadienes and aldehydes is presented. These domino reactions offer the advantage of executing multistep transformation without intermediate workup procedures. The stereoselectivity of ring closure to 5-hydroxy-1-aminopyrroline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives and phenyl transposition to 2,3-diphenyl-1-aminopyrrole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives are also studied.
Cassis and Green Tea: Spontaneous Release of Natural Aroma Compounds from β-Alkylthioalkanones
B?ttig, Sarah,Bochet, Christian G.,Egger, Timothy,Flachsmann, Felix,Gey, Olga
, (2021/10/19)
In depth headspace analysis of the slow degradation of β-alkylthioalkanones in ambient air led to the discovery of a novel δ-cleavage pathway, by which β-mercaptoketones are released. Since β-mercaptoketones are potent natural aroma compounds occurring in many fruits, herbs and flowers, the discovery of an enzyme-independent molecular precursor for this class of high-impact molecules is of practical importance. Moreover, the formation of β-diketones and aldehydes by concomitant oxidation at the α-sulfur-position enhances the versatility of this class of aroma precursors. A mechanistic model is proposed which suggests that the oxidative degradation occurs through a novel Pummerer-type rearrangement of initially formed persulfoxides.

The condensation of 2-(hydroxyimino)-3-oxobutanal with primary aliphatic amines, cyclohexanamine, and amines containing an adamantane fragment afforded 4-(alkylamino)- and 4-(cyclohexylamino)-3- nitrosobut-3-en-2-ones. Analogous reaction with substituted anilines RC6H4NH2 (R = H, 4-Me, 4-OMe, 4-NH2, 4-Br, 4-I, 3-NO2) led to the formation of 4-aryl-3-hydroxyiminobutan-2-ones.

Thiamine pyrophosphate stimulates acetone activation by desulfococcus biacutus as monitored by a fluorogenic ATP analogue
Gutiérrez Acosta, Olga B.,Hardt, Norman,Hacker, Stephan M.,Strittmatter, Tobias,Schink, Bernhard,Marx, Andreas
, p. 1263 - 1266 (2014/07/08)
Acetone can be degraded by aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. Studies with the strictly anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfococcus biacutus indicate that acetone degradation by these bacteria starts with an ATP-dependent carbonylation reaction leading to acetoacetaldehyde as the first reaction product. The reaction represents the second example of a carbonylation reaction in the biochemistry of strictly anaerobic bacteria, but the exact mechanism and dependence on cofactors are still unclear. Here, we use a novel fluorogenic ATP analogue to investigate its mechanism. We find that thiamine pyrophosphate is a cofactor of this ATP-dependent reaction. The products of ATP cleavage are AMP and pyrophosphate, providing first insights into the reaction mechanism by indicating that the reaction proceeds without intermediate formation of acetone enol phosphate.

Where HAS you been? A manganese-mediated annulation of 2-isocyanobiaryls with organoboronic acids is developed for the synthesis of a broad range of phenanthridine derivatives (see scheme). Mechanistic studies indicate that the reaction proceeds by the intramolecular homolytic aromatic substitution (HAS) of an imidoyl radical intermediate. Copyright
Branching ratios for the reaction of selected carbonyl-containing peroxy radicals with hydroperoxy radicals

An important chemical sink for organic peroxy radicals (RO2) in the troposphere is reaction with hydroperoxy radicals (HO2). Although this reaction is typically assumed to form hydroperoxides as the major products (R1a), acetyl peroxy radicals and acetonyl peroxy radicals have been shown to undergo other reactions (R1b) and (R1c) with substantial branching ratios: RO2 + HO2 → ROOH + O2 (R1a), RO 2 + HO2 → ROH + O3 (R1b), RO2 + HO2 → RO + OH + O2 (R1c). Theoretical work suggests that reactions (R1b) and (R1c) may be a general feature of acyl peroxy and α-carbonyl peroxy radicals. In this work, branching ratios for R1a-R1c were derived for six carbonyl-containing peroxy radicals: C2H 5C(O)O2, C3H7C(O)O2, CH3C(O)CH2O2, CH3C(O)CH(O 2)CH3, CH2ClCH(O2)C(O)CH 3, and CH2ClC(CH3)(O2)CHO. Branching ratios for reactions of Cl-atoms with butanal, butanone, methacrolein, and methyl vinyl ketone were also measured as a part of this work. Product yields were determined using a combination of long path Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection, gas chromatography with flame ionization detection, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The following branching ratios were determined: C2H5C(O)O2, YR1a = 0.35 ± 0.1, YR1b = 0.25 ± 0.1, and YR1c = 0.4 ± 0.1; C3H7C(O)O2, YR1a = 0.24 ± 0.15, YR1b = 0.29 ± 0.1, and YR1c = 0.47 ± 0.15; CH3C(O)CH2O2, Y R1a = 0.75 ± 0.13, YR1b = 0, and YR1c = 0.25 ± 0.13; CH3C(O)CH(O2)CH3, Y R1a = 0.42 ± 0.1, YR1b = 0, and YR1c = 0.58 ± 0.1; CH2ClC(CH3)(O2)CHO, Y R1a = 0.2 ± 0.2, YR1b = 0, and YR1c = 0.8 ± 0.2; and CH2ClCH(O2)C(O)CH3, YR1a = 0.2 ± 0.1, YR1b = 0, and YR1c = 0.8 ± 0.2. The results give insights into possible mechanisms for cycling of OH radicals in the atmosphere.

Under the action of a twofold excess of KOH and heating in aqueous solution, and also under the conditions of the Stevens rearrangement (with KOH powder and a small amount of methanol) dialkyl-(4-hydroxy-2-butynyl)(3- phenylallyl)ammonium bromides form dialkyl[4-(1-phenylallyl)-2,5-dihydro-2- furyl]amines. Rearrangement-cleavage reaction also occurs under the same conditions.
The gas-phase ozonolysis of α-humulene
Beck,Winterhalter,Herrmann,Moortgat
experimental part, p. 10970 - 11001 (2012/01/02)
α-Humulene contains three double bonds (DB), and after ozonolysis of the first DB the first-generation products are still reactive towards O 3 and produce second- and third-generation products. The primary aim of this study consisted of identifying the products of the three generations, focusing on the carboxylic acids, which are known to have a high aerosol formation potential. The experiments were performed in a 570 litre spherical glass reactor at 295 K and 730 Torr. Initial mixing ratios were 260-2090 ppb for O3 and 250-600 ppb for α-humulene in synthetic air. Reactants and gas-phase products were measured by in situ FTIR spectroscopy. Particulate products were sampled on Teflon filters, extracted with methanol and analyzed by LC-MS/MS-TOF. Using cyclohexane (10-100 ppm) as an OH-radical scavenger and by monitoring the yield of cyclohexanone by PTR-MS, an OH-yield of (10.5 ± 0.7)% was determined for the ozonolysis of the first DB, and (12.9 ± 0.7)% of the first-generation products. The rate constant of the reaction of O3 with α-humulene is known as k0 = 1.17 × 10-14 cm3 molecule-1 s-1 [Y. Shu and R. Atkinson, Int. J. Chem. Kinet., 1994, 26, 1193-1205]. The reaction rate constants of O3 with the first-generation products and the second-generation products were, respectively, determined as k1 = (3.6 ± 0.9) × 10-16 and k2 = (3.0 ± 0.7) × 10-17 cm3 molecule-1 s -1 by Facsimile-simulation of the observed ozone decay by FTIR. A total of 37 compounds in the aerosol phase and 5 products in the gas phase were tentatively identified: 25 compounds of the first-generation products contained C13-C15 species, 9 compounds of the second-generation products contained C8-C11 species, whereas 8 compounds of the third-generation products contained C4-C6 species. The products of all three generations consisted of a variety of dicarboxylic-, hydroxy-oxocarboxylic- and oxo-carboxylic acids. The formation mechanisms of some of the products are discussed. The residual FTIR spectra indicate the formation of secondary ozonides (SOZ) in the gas phase, which are formed by the intramolecular reaction of the Criegee moiety with the carbonyl endgroup. These SOZ revealed to be stable over several hours and its formation was shown not to be affected by the addition of Criegee-radical scavengers such as HCOOH or H2O. This suggests that in the ozonolysis of α-humulene at atmospheric pressures the POZ will decompose rapidly, and that a large fraction of the formed exited Criegee Intermediate will be stabilized to form stable SOZ, while the formation of OH-radicals via the hydroperoxide channel will be a minor process. the Owner Societies.
