Hydrolysis Of

Slow reactions of isomeric metallacarboranes of general formulae [(NMe2)3TaC2B9H11] (3 isomers) and [(NMe2)3TaC2B9H10Me] (3 isomers) with CD2Cl2 afford quantitative yields of monochloro complexes [Cl(NMe2)2TaC2B9H11] and [Cl(NMe2)2TaC2B9H10Me]. Exposure to CD2Cl2 for months leads to solutions containing about 70% of the dichlorides in three cases. More prolonged exposure of these and the other monochlorides leads to a mixture of boron-substituted complexes. Hydrolysis of [3,3,3-(NMe2)3-3,1,2-TaC2B9H11] by moist toluene results in the formation of the oxo-bridged complex 3,3'-[3,3-(NMe2)2-3,1,2-TaC2B9H11]2(μ-O), characterised by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The limited solubility of the latter complex in CD2Cl2 eliminates the presence of this compound in the reaction of [3,3,3-(NMe2)3-3,1,2-TaC2B9H11] with CD2Cl2. The reaction of [2,2,2-(NMe2)3-2,1,12-TaC2B9H11] with CH2Br2 in C6D6 quantitatively yields the monobromide [2-Br-2,2-(NMe2)2-2,1,12-TaC2B9H11]. Prolonged reaction with CH2Br2 leads directly to isomeric boron-substituted complexes with no evidence for dibromides. The influence on 11B, 13C and 1H NMR chemical shifts of replacing an amide group in [(NMe2)3TaC2B9H11] with chloride to give [Cl(NMe2)2TaC2B9H11] is also discussed.

Detailed solvent and temperature effects on the experimental 1H-NMR chemical shifts of the natural products chrysophanol (1), emodin (2), and physcion (3) are reported for the investigation of hydrogen bonding, solvation and conformation effects in solution. Very small chemical shift of │Δδ│ < 0.3 ppm and temperature coefficients │Δδ/ΔΤ│ ≤ 2.1 ppb/K were observed in DMSO-d6, acetone-d6 and CDCl3 for the C(1)–OH and C(8)–OH groups which demonstrate that they are involved in a strong intramolecular hydrogen bond. On the contrary, large chemical shift differences of 5.23 ppm at 298 K and Δδ/ΔΤ values in the range of −5.3 to −19.1 ppb/K between DMSO-d6 and CDCl3 were observed for the C(3)–OH group which demonstrate that the solvation state of the hydroxyl proton is a key factor in determining the value of the chemical shift. DFT calculated 1H-NMR chemical shifts, using various functionals and basis sets, the conductor-like polarizable continuum model, and discrete solute-solvent hydrogen bond interactions, were found to be in very good agreement with the experimental 1H-NMR chemical shifts even with computationally less demanding level of theory. The 1H-NMR chemical shifts of the OH groups which participate in intramolecular hydrogen bond are dependent on the conformational state of substituents and, thus, can be used as molecular sensors in conformational analysis. When the X-ray structures of chrysophanol (1), emodin (2), and physcion (3) were used as input geometries, the DFT-calculated 1H-NMR chemical shifts were shown to strongly deviate from the experimental chemical shifts and no functional dependence could be obtained. Comparison of the most important intramolecular data of the DFT calculated and the X-ray structures demonstrate significant differences for distances involving hydrogen atoms, most notably the intramolecular hydrogen bond O–H and C–H bond lengths which deviate by 0.152 tο 0.132 Å and 0.133 to 0.100 Å, respectively, in the two structural methods. Further differences were observed in the conformation of –OH, –CH3, and –OCH3 substituents.

3,4,5-Trichloroguaiacol, which is formed during bleaching of chemical pulp and shown to bioaccumulate in fish, has been synthesized. The structure of the compound has been determined by means of X-ray analysis. The values of the 13C nmr chemical shifts and melting point differ from those previously reported. A reaction mechanism is suggested for the formation of 3,4,5- and 4,5,6-trichloroguaiacol.
