Photolysis of enol acetates and α-bromo derivatives ofo-(acyloxy)acetophenones

1985

UV irradiation of enol acetates 3a – g in benzene gives mainly o-(acetoxy)acetophenones 2 and 2-methylchromones 4. Under the same conditions, the dimethyl derivatives 3h and 3i remain unaffected. The α-bromo ketone 5a gives rise to mixtures of o-(acetoxy)acetophenone (2a), the diketone 6, and/or α-acetoxy-o-hydroxyacetophenone (7), depending on the irradiation conditions. The similarities and differences between the two series of experiments, as well as their possible mechanistic implications, are discussed.

Pressure dependence in the methyl vinyl ketone + OH and methacrolein + OH oxidation reactions: an electronic structure study.

2005

High-level electronic structure calculations were carried out for the study of the reaction pathways in the OH-initiated oxidations of methyl vinyl ketone (MVK) and methacrolein (MACR). For the two conformers of MVK (called synperiplanar and antiperiplanar), the addition channels of OH to the terminal and central carbon atom of the double bond dominate the overall rate constant, whereas the abstraction of the methyl hydrogen atoms has no significant kinetic role. In the case of MACR, only the antiperiplanar conformer is important in its reactivity. In addition, the lower Gibbs free energy barrier for MACR corresponds to the aldehydic hydrogen abstraction reaction, which will be somewhat mor…

CO2 as a C1-organic building block: Electrocarboxylation of aromatic ketones. A quantitative study of the effect of the concentration of substrate an…

2006

The purpose of this work is to establish and discuss quantitative relationships between the selectivity in preparative scale electrolysis and intrinsic and operational parameters for the electrocarboxylation of aromatic ketones. For the investigated ketones, under appopriate experimental conditions the selectivity of the process is mainly determined by the competition between carboxylation and protonation, de-halogenation reactions (when an halogenated ketone is involved), and possibly dimerizations involving the electrogenerated radical anion. A simple model was proposed to account for these unwanted side paths which allows to predict the dependence of the selectivity as a function of the …

Synthesis of 1,3,5-Trisubstituted Hydantoins by Regiospecific Domino Condensation/Aza-Michael/O→N Acyl Migration of Carbodiimides with Activated α,β-…

2005

[reaction: see text] Carbodiimides and suitably activated alpha,beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids react effectively to afford a vast array of 1,3,5-trisubstituted hydantoins by means of a regiospecific domino condensation/aza-Michael/N--O acyl migration. The reaction works well in very mild conditions (20 degrees C, dichloromethane) with fumaric acid derivatives bearing an electron-withdrawing group in the beta position. Good results have been obtained also with less activated substrates bearing only one electron-withdrawing group in the beta position, using more polar solvents (acetonitrile, DMF), and in the presence of a base (2,4,6-trimethylpyridine). Reactions with asymmetric carbodiimi…

Sesquiterpene lactones from Artemisia lucentica

1997

Abstract The aerial parts of Artemisia lucentica yielded, in addition to several known compounds, a bicyclic monoterpene ketone, two germacranolides, an eudesmanolide, a 10- epi neudesmanolide, a 2-norelemanolide and three bisabolene derivatives. The stereochemistry of a germacranolide, described as 2α-hydroxyartemorin in a previous investigation of the species, has now been corrected and the compound has been renamed lucentolide.

New hexanuclear FeIII clusters with the gem-diol hydrated form of di(2-pyridyl)ketone and carboxylato ligands: Crystal structures and magnetic proper…

2019

Abstract The hexanuclear compounds [Fe6O2Cl2{(py)2CO2}2(pyOH)2(pyCOO)2(ButCOO)6] (1) and [Fe6O2{(py)2CO2}2(pyCOO)4(ButCOO)6] (2) were obtained by condensation of the trinuclear μ3-oxo-centered iron(III) pivalate [Fe3O(ButCOO)6(H2O)3]+ in the presence of di(2-pyridyl)ketone [(py)2CO] in MeCN at ambient temperature. Both complexes contain an analogous core which can be described as two {Fe3O}7+ units joined by gem-diolato (py)2CO22− bridges. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements in polycrystalline samples of 1 and 2 reveal strong antiferromagnetic couplings between the iron(III) ions leading to S = 0 ground states.

A density functional theory study of the chemoselectivity and regioselectivity of the domino cycloaddition reactions of nitroalkenes with substituted…

2000

The chemoselectivity and regioselectivity of the domino intermolecular [4 + 2]/[3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of nitroalkenes with substituted alkenes, vinyl ethers as electron-rich alkenes and vinyl ketones as electron-poor alkenes, have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) methods with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G* basis set. These domino processes comprise two consecutive cycloaddition reactions: the first one is an intermolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of the vinyl ether to the nitroalkene to give a nitronate intermediate, which then affords the final nitroso acetal adduct through an intermolecular [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction with the vinyl ketone. The two consecu…

Structural and magnetic properties of polynuclear oximate copper complexes with different topologies

2017

Abstract Two new copper(II) complexes containing the methyl(2-pyridyl)ketone oxime ligand (mpkoH) [Cu3(OH)(ClO4)2(mpko)3]·CH3OH (1) and [Cu(ClO4)(mpko)(mpkoH)]n (2) have been prepared from Cu(ClO4)2 and mpkoH in different metal-to-ligand molar ratios. In addition, the compound [Cu{(mpko)2BF2}(H2O)](BF4) (3) [(mpko)2BF2 is the fluoroboration product of the oxime] has been obtained when replacing Cu(ClO4)2 by Cu(BF4)2. Compound 1 is an isolated triangle with a {Cu3(µ3-OH)}5+ core, whereas 2 is a chain of CuII ions linked by anionic mpko− bridges. 1 exhibits strong antiferromagnetic competing interactions, as well as antisymmetric exchange. On the other hand, very weak ferromagnetic interactio…
