Herein, we report the approach to the otherwise hardly accessible dibenzoxanthenes, diarylbutanes, and calix[4]resorcinarenes possessing urea moieties based on the reaction of N-(4,4-diethoxybutyl)ureas with electron-rich aromatics in strongly acidic media. Unlike the previously developed methods, the proposed approach benefits from one-pot procedure and allows to obtain the target compounds with much higher yields.

Open chain intermediates from the ring-opening reaction of aqueous sodium deuteroxide (2 mol) with 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine (1 mol) and 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine (1 mol) were isolated. These intermediates were purified, analyzed for elemental composition, and characterized by various spectrophotometric techniques. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-5-nitropyridine and two equivalents of deuteroxide ion reacts with additional deuteroxide in D2O in various polar solvents to reclose the pyridine ring. The kinetics of the ring closure reaction are reported and are supplemented with observations of salt and solvent effects upon the rate of closure. In addition, a mechanism for the ring closure is presented. The intermediate formed from 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine did not undergo a similar ring closure when reacted with additional deuteroxide, but instead formed various decomposition products. A reason for the failure of this ring closure is suggested.

Abstract Ring closure and ring opening reactions possess an outstanding significance for the formation and reactivity of antiaromatic heterocycles like oxirenes and thiirenes. The valence isomerisations 2 ⇆ 1 ⇆ 2' can be controlled by the product distribution 2 → P/2' → P'. A quantitative interpretation of many experimental data, published in the last years, is given on the basis of a few kinetic models, which consider thermal and photochemical pathways. Possible energy profiles of single hypersurfaces (S0 or S1) and the transition between different hypersurfaces (S1 → S0) are the most important features of these models.

Abstract The synthesis of a novel photochromic dithienylethene-based polyurethane and its characterization by optical spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy are presented. This linear polyurethane builds up perfect free-standing films suited for photonic applications. Moreover it may be extruded to long mechanically stable fibers. The photochromic reactions of the polyurethane, as being the electrocyclic ring-closure and ring-opening reactions of the dithienylethene unit in the polymer backbone, occur in a completely reversible and highly efficient fashion.
