Rearrangement products of 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline.

Two isomeric products (C 8 H 10 N 2 O 4 S) of the rearrangement of 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline have been investigated, viz. 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-2-nitroaniline, which was the main product of the rearrangement, and 5-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-2-nitroaniline. In both molecules, the aromatic rings are appreciably deformed towards ortho-quinonoidal geometry by electronic and steric interactions. The crystal structure is stabilized, in both cases, by weak C-H...O hydrogen bonds.

DFT and experimental studies on structure and spectroscopic parameters of 3,6-diiodo-9-ethyl-9H-carbazole

The first report on crystal and molecular structure of 3,6-diiodo-9-ethyl-9H-carbazole is presented. Experimental room-temperature X-ray and 13C chemical shift studies were supported by advanced theoretical calculations using density functional theory (DFT). The 13C nuclear magnetic shieldings were predicted at the non-relativistic and relativistic level of theory using the zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA). Theoretical relativistic calculations of chemical shifts of carbons C3 and C6, directly bonded to iodine atoms, produced a reasonable agreement with experiment (initial deviation from experiment of 44.3 dropped to 4.25 ppm). The changes in ring aromatic character via simple harm…

1,4-Dihydro-1-methyl-4-nitriminopyridine Dihydrate

Molecules of the title compound, C6H7N302.2H20, are almost planar with the NNO2 nitrimino group twisted 8 (1) ° out of the plane of the pyridine ring. The nitrimino group and CsN ring form a conju- gated 7r-electron system. These molecules together with water molecules are arranged in planes, They are con- nected with each other by O--H.-.O, O--H...N and weaker C--H..-O hydrogen bonds. Four water mol- ecules form a planar square (OH..-O--H)2 ring with O-..O distances equal to 2.741 (2) and 2.778(2)A. These rings join pairs of molecular planes into double layers, interacting otherwise by van der Waals forces.

N,N-Dicyclohexylnitramine

Molecules of the title compound, C12H22N2O2, are composed of an nitramine group substituted by two cyclohexane rings. The cyclohexane rings have chair conformations, with the exocyclic C—N bonds in axial orientations. In the crystal, C—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules intoC(6) [-101] zigzag chains.

Theoretical Multipolar Atom Model Transfer in Nitro-Derivatives of N-Methylaniline

The nitroanilines are an example of compounds in which the coexistence of electron-rich and electron-deficient substituents, connected through a conjugated π-electronic system, makes their molecular second-order hyperpolarizability and second-harmonic generation efficiency particularly high. This property makes them extremely interesting from the point of view of charge density distribution analysis. The electron density of three isomeric molecules, i.e., N-methyl-2-nitroaniline, N-methyl-3-nitroaniline, and N-methyl-4-nitroaniline, was calculated theoretically through the multipolar atom model transfer. Two types of refinement models, i.e., multipolar atom model (MAM) and independent atom …

By-products in the rearrangement of N-methyl-N-phenylnitramine

Abstract N-Methyl-N-phenylnitramine was rearranged in the aqueous dioxane — sulphuric acid mixture to 2-nitro- and 4-nitro-N-methylanilines. The isomer ratio was independent of the acidity within the range of −0.3 > Ho > −2.8. Some by-products were isolated and identified e.g. N-methyl-N-nitrosoaniline, its 2-nitro and 4-nitro derivatives, nitrosobenzene and 4′,4″-bis-(N-methylamino)-3′,3″-dinitrodiphenylmethane. The mechanism of the nitramine rearrangement is discussed.

Rearrangement of N-(3-pyridyl)nitramine

AbstractContrary to other N-(pyridyl)nitramines, the title compound cannot be rearranged to 3-amino-2-nitropyridine or other isomers. Hypothetical products of its transformation under influence of concentrated sulphuric acid, viz. 3-hydroxypyridine, 3,3′-azoxypyridine and 3,3′-azopyridine, were obtained from 3-nitro- and 3-aminopyridine in oxidation and reduction reactions. N-(3-Pyridyl)nitramine was prepared and rearranged in concentrated sulphuric acid. 3-Hydroxypyridine and 3,3′-azoxypyridine were isolated from the reaction mixture, other products were identified by the HPLC and GCMS methods. The results indicate that N-(3-pyridyl)hydroxylamine is an intermediate formed from N-(3-pyridyl…

Structure of N,4-dinitroaniline and its complex with sulfolane at 85 K; on the proton donor–acceptor affinity of the primary nitramine (HNNO2) group

The NNO2 group of the title compound is significantly less twisted with respect to the aromatic ring in comparison to a typical secondary nitramine. The amide nitrogen is trigonally hybridized. The nitramino group is almost planar. The C—C—N—N torsion angles vary between ca 13 and 42°, whereas the twist along the N—N bond is much smaller and amounts to between ca 1 and 15°. Those twist angles are governed by a crystal packing and are much larger in the case of crystals of pure N,4-dinitroaniline in comparison to that of its complex with sulfolane. The deviations of the internal angles of the aromatic ring from 120° do not exceed 3°. The presence of the nitro group increases the C—C—C valenc…

4-Fluoro-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline

Molecules of the title compound, C7H7FN2O2, are composed of a nitramine group which is twisted with the respect to the aromatic ring, with an N—N—C—C torsion angle of −117.38 (12)°. In the molecule, the N—N bond length [1.3510 (15) Å] indicates some double-bond character, while the angle between the aromatic ring and the nitramine group rules out further delocalization in the molecule. In the crystal, C—H...F hydrogen bonds connect the molecules intoC11(6) chains along theaaxis. C—H...O hydrogen bonds form, which featureR22(12) loops and further connect these chains.

Molecular modeling and experimental studies on structure and NMR parameters of 9-benzyl-3,6-diiodo-9H-carbazole

A combined experimental and theoretical study has been performed on 9-benzyl-3,6-diiodo-9H-carbazole. Experimental X-ray (100.0 K) and room-temperature 13C NMR studies were supported by advanced density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The non relativistic structure optimization was performed and the 13C nuclear magnetic shieldings were predicted at the relativistic level of theory using the Zeroth Order Regular Approximation (ZORA). The changes in the benzene and pyrrole rings compared to the unsubstituted carbazole or the parent molecules were discussed in terms of aromaticity changes using the harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA) and the nucleus independent chemical shift…

Structure and properties of N-methyl-N-(4-pyridyl)-nitramine and 1,4-dihydro-1-methyl-4-nitriminopyridine

Abstract The molecular structure and spectral properties of N -methyl- N -(4-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 1 ) and 1,4-dihydro-1-methyl-4-nitriminopyridine ( 3 ) were investigated by the X-ray diffraction, FTIR, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods and DFT theoretical calculations. N -methyl- N -(4-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 1 ) crystallises in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. It is composed of two planar fragments; nitramino (N 2 O 2 ) group and the pirydyl ring. These two groups are twisted at about 70° with respect to each other, along the Ar–N bond. On the contrary, in compound 3 , they are coplanar to each other. Twist of the nitramino group in 1 with respect to the pirydyl ring leads to a sign…

ChemInform Abstract: Attempted Preparation of Trisphenol-II.

Abstract Condensation of 4,4-bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methyl-2-pentanol with phenol, in the presence of hydrogen chloride, gives 1,3,3-trimethyl-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-methoxyindan and tris-(4-methoxyphenyl)-ethane instead of expected 2,2,4-tris-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-methylpentane (trisphenol-II). tris-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-ethane was obtained, together with bisphenol-A, by condensation of phenol with acetylacetone.

N-Methyl-N-(2-nitrophenyl)nitramine andN-methyl-N-(3-nitrophenyl)nitramine

The structures of the two title isomeric compounds (systematic names: N-meth­yl-N,2-dinitro­aniline and N-meth­yl-N,3-di­nitro­aniline, both C7H7N3O4) are slightly different because they exhibit different steric hindrances and hydrogen-bonding environments. The aromatic rings are planar. The –N(Me)NO2 and –NO2 groups are not coplanar with the rings. Comparison of the geometric parameters of the ortho, meta and para isomers together with those of N-meth­yl-N-phenyl­nitramine suggests that the position of the nitro group has a strong influence on the aromatic ring distortion. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to the nitramine group.

1-Nitroindoline.

In the title compound, C(8)H(8)N(2)O(2), the nitramino group is planar and only slightly twisted with respect to the indoline rings. The bridgehead N--C bond is slightly shorter than in typical secondary aromatic nitramines. The N--N bond has some double-bond character. The molecules are connected by weak C--H...O hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the z direction.

Structure and properties of some nitro derivatives of N -methyl- N -phenylnitramine

Abstract Ten mono-, di- and tri-nitro derivatives of N-methyl-N-phenylnitramine were prepared and investigated using spectral and electrooptical methods. Three of them, viz. N-(2, 5-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/c, a=8.248(2), b=11.655(2), c=10.404(2) A , β=102.57(2)°), N-(2,3-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/c, a=9.224(2), b=7.222(2), c=15.458(4) A , β=101.08(2)°)) and N-(3,5-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/n, a=9.814(2), b=12.000(2), c=8.865(2) A , β=114.94(2)°) were examined by the X-ray diffraction method. The nitramino group is nearly planar with the short N(7)–N(8) bond and strongly electron deficient N(8) atom. The nitramino grou…

Substituent effects in trans-p,p'-disubstituted azobenzenes: X-ray structures at 100 K and DFT-calculated structures.

The crystal and molecular structures of twopara-substituted azobenzenes with π-electron-donating –NEt2and π-electron-withdrawing –COOEt groups are reported, along with the effects of the substituents on the aromaticity of the benzene ring. The deformation of the aromatic ring around the –NEt2group inN,N,N′,N′-tetraethyl-4,4′-(diazenediyl)dianiline, C20H28N4, (I), may be caused by steric hindrance and the π-electron-donating effects of the amine group. In this structure, one of the amine N atoms demonstrates clearsp2-hybridization and the other is slightly shifted from the plane of the surrounding atoms. The molecule of the second azobenzene, diethyl 4,4′-(diazenediyl)dibenzoate, C18H18N2O4,…

SYNTHESIS AND REARRANGEMENT OFN-METHYL-N-(2-THIAZOLYL)-NITRAMINE

Methylation of N-(2-thiazolyl)-nitramine in alkaline solution gives 1,2-dihydro-3-methyl-2-nitriminothiazole which rear-ranges in concentrated sulphuric acid yielding small amount of 2-(N-methylamino)-5-nitrothiazole, identical with the product of rearrangement of N-methyl-N-(2-thiazolyl)-nitramine. The latter compound was obtained by the action of sodium hydride on 2-(N-methylamino)-thiazole followed by the nitration with n-butyl nitrate.

Substituent effects in nitro derivatives of carbazoles investigated by comparison of low-temperature crystallographic studies with density functional theory (DFT) calculations

The crystal structure of 9H-carbazole, C12H9N, (I), has been redetermined at low temperature for use as a reference structure in a comparative study with the structures of 1-nitro-9H-carbazole, C12H8N2O2, (II), and 9-nitrocarbazole, C12H8N2O2, (III). The molecule of (I) has crystallographically imposed mirror symmetry (Z′ = 0.5). All three solid-state structures are slightly nonplanar, the dihedral angles between the planes of the arene and pyrrole rings ranging from 0.40 (7)° in (III) to 1.82 (18)° in (II). Nevertheless, a density functional theory (DFT) study predicts completely planar conformations for the isolated molecules. To estimate the influence of nitro-group substitution on aroma…

N-Methyl-3-methylsulfonyl-N-nitroaniline

In the title compound, C8H10N2O4S, the N—N bond length [1.3488 (18) A] indicates some double-bond character, while the torsion angle between the aromatic ring and the nitramine group [66.3 (2)°] rules out further delocalization in the mol­ecule. The geometry of the methyl­sulfon­yl substituent is quasi-tetra­hedral, as expected. The crystal packing is stabilized by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, with the mol­ecules arranged in chains extended along the [101] direction.

1,5-Dimethyl-2-nitrimino-1,2-dihydropyridine

Methyl­ation of 5-methyl-2-nitramino­pyridine provides the title compound, C7H9N3O2, as the only product. The mol­ecule consists of two planar fragments, viz. an aromatic ring and a nitrimino substituent. The NNO2 group is twisted by 17 (2)° out of the plane of the pyridine ring. Despite a small torsion angle between these fragments, the geometry of the mol­ecule indicates the participation of the π-electrons in the C—N bond. The hydrogen bonds in the crystal structure seem to be too weak to generate any deformations observed in the mol­ecule.

2,3-Dihydro-3-methyl-2-nitrimino-1,3-thiazole

The title compound ¿alternatively, 3-methyl-2-[oxido(oxo)hydrazono]-2,3-dihydro-1,3-thiazole¿, C(4)H(5)N(3)O(2)S, was obtained by methylation of N-(2-thiazolyl)nitramine. The molecule lies on a mirror plane and the thiazole ring is planar, regular in shape and aromatic. The S atom participates in the aromatic sextet via an electron pair on the 3p(z) orbital. In the crystal, the molecules are arranged in parallel layers, bound to each other by weak C-H.O and C-H.N hydrogen bonds and by S.O dipolar interactions, with an interlayer separation of 3.23 A.

4-Chloro-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline

The molecular structure of (p-ClC 6 H 4 )(CH 3 )NNO 2 (or C 7 H 7 ClN 2 O 2 ) contains a planar NNO 2 nitroamino group which is twisted about the N-C phenyl bond by ca 68° from the plane of the aromatic ring. The structural data are in agreement with the spectral results and indicate that there is no conjugation between the aromatic sextet and the nitroamino group. There are no specific intermolecular interactions.

2,4,6-Trimethyl-N-nitroaniline

In 2,4,6-trimethyl-N-nitro­aniline (alternatively called mesitylnitramine), C9H12N2O2, the primary nitramino group is planar with a short N—N bond and is nearly perpendicular to the aromatic ring. The methyl group located in the para position is disordered, each H atom having half-occupancy. The mol­ecules are linked together along the [100] axis by inter­molecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

1-Methyl-4-nitraminopyridinium nitrate and 4-nitraminopyridinium methanesulfonate

In the title compounds, C6H8N3O2+*NO3- and C5H6N3O2+*-CH3SO3-, respectively, the cations are almost planar; the twist of the nitramino group about the C-N and N-N bonds does not exceed 10 degrees. The deviations from coplanarity are accounted for by intermolecular N-H...O interactions. The coplanarity of the NHNO2 group and the phenyl ring leads to the deformation of the nitramino group. The C-N-N angle and one C-C-N angle at the junction of the phenyl ring and the nitramino group are increased from 120 degrees by ca 6 degrees, whereas the other junction C-C-N angle is decreased by ca 5 degrees. Within the nitro group, the O-N-O angle is increased by ca 5 degrees and one O-N-N angle is decr…

X-ray, conformation and electronic structures of 1-nitropyrrolidine

Abstract The chemistry of pyrrolidine compounds has drawn much attention because of their biological activities. The crystal and molecular structure of 1-nitropyrrolidine (C4H8NNO2) at 150K, along with calculated structures (DFT and MP2), are reported herein. In the solid-state, the asymmetric part of the unit cell is composed of one quartermolecule at the position of two perpendicular mirror planes and the five-membered ring is disordered over a mirror plane, revealing the twisted conformation. Both geometries suggest slight sp3 hybridization of the amine nitrogen atom. The non-planar geometry suggests the lack of conjugation of the amine nitrogen lone pair with the nitro group, however th…

Halogen effect on structure and 13 C NMR chemical shift of 3,6-disubstituted-N -alkyl carbazoles

Structures of selected 3,6-dihalogeno-N-alkyl carbazole derivatives were calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(3df,2pd) level of theory, and their 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) isotropic shieldings were predicted using density functional theory (DFT). The model compounds contained 9H, N-methyl and N-ethyl derivatives. The relativistic effect of Br and I atoms on nuclear shieldings was modeled using the spin–orbit zeroth-order regular approximation (ZORA) method. Significant heavy atom shielding effects for the carbon atom directly bonded with Br and I were observed (~−10 and ~−30 ppm while the other carbon shifts were practically unaffected). The decreasing electronegativity of the haloge…

Acetylhydroxamic acid

There is one independent molecule in the asymmetric unit of the title compound (alternatively namedN-hydroxyacetamide), C2H5NO2. It crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space groupP43. The structure is an anhydrous form of acetylhydroxamic acid with typical geometry that corresponds well with the hydrated structure described by Bracher & Small [Acta Cryst.(1970), B26, 1705–1709]. In the crystal, N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds connect the molecules into chains in thec-axis direction.

Charge-density analysis of 1-nitroindoline: refinement quality using free R factors and restraints

Nitramines and related N-nitro compounds have attracted significant attention owing to their use in rocket fuel and as explosives. The charge density of 1-nitroindoline was determined experimentally and from theoretical calculations. Electron-density refinements were performed using the multipolar atom formalism. In order to design the ideal restraint strategy for the charge-density parameters, R-free analyses were performed involving a series of comprehensive refinements. Different weights were applied to the charge-density restraints, namely the similarity between chemically equivalent atoms and local symmetry. Additionally, isotropic thermal motion and an anisotropic model calculated by …

Attempted preparation of trisphenol-II

Abstract Condensation of 4,4-bis-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methyl-2-pentanol with phenol, in the presence of hydrogen chloride, gives 1,3,3-trimethyl-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-methoxyindan and tris-(4-methoxyphenyl)-ethane instead of expected 2,2,4-tris-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-methylpentane (trisphenol-II). tris-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-ethane was obtained, together with bisphenol-A, by condensation of phenol with acetylacetone.

Crystal and molecular structure of 1,2-dihydro-1-methyl-2-nitriminopyridine: X-ray and infrared studies

Abstract The crystal and molecular structure of 1,2 dihydro-1-methyl-2-nitriminopyridine ( 1 ) at 90.0(1) K have been determined. It crystallises in an orthorhombic Pna2 1 space group with a =7.753(2), b =13.829(3) and c =6.070(1) A, Z =4, R ( F )=0.0259 for 1856 unique reflections. The pyridine ring is planar, the N(1) nitrogen atom remains sp 2 hybridised. The NNO 2 group is twisted 26° along C–N bond and 15° along N–N bond. The twist is caused by a steric hindrance and/or weak C–H⋯O hydrogen bonds. IR spectra of ( 1 ), N -(2-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 4 ) and N -methyl- N -(2-pyridyl)-nitramine ( 9 ) were recorded in solution and in the solid state. The frequencies characteristic of the nitrim…

Acidity and basicity of primaryN-phenylnitramines: catalytic effect of protons on the nitramine rearrangement

Para-substituted N-phenylnitramines were prepared either by oxidation of diazonium salts or by nitration under alkaline or acidic conditions. Isotopic [15N-NO2] labelling indicated that the bands characteristic of the N-nitro group appear in the 1318–1323 and 1585–1607 cm−1 regions. In the nitrogen NMR spectra, the nitramino group gives two resonances at −193 ± 3 (NH) and −32 ± 3 ppm (NO2). The chemical shifts in proton and carbon NMR spectra are predictable, based on increments and the additivity rule. The spectral data indicate the lack of conjugation between the nitramino group and another substituent bound to the ring. It seems to contradict the well-known fact that substituents strongl…
