The structures of 6-ethoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrylium, 1, 6-ethoxy-2-methyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrylium, 2, and 2-ethoxy-3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-1-benzopyrylium, 3, hexachloroantimonates have been determined by X-ray crystallography. In each case the tetrahydropyrylium rings exist in shallow half-chair conformations with the cationic centers C(6), C(5), O(1), and O(6) having a planar arrangement. The cations all have a Z conformation about the O(6)—C(7) bonds and it is shown that this conformation is also preferred in solution by comparison of narrow-line 13C NMR spectra in the solid state and solution. The O(1)—C(2) and O(6)—C(7) bond distances in 1–3 are significantly longer than those of comparable bonds in neutral esters. The length of the O(1)—C(2) bond is very dependent on substitution at C(2) suggesting a considerable fraction of the positive charge resides on this carbon as well as C(7). The closest cation/anion interactions present in the crystal lattices of these salts are between the chlorine atoms of the anion and the cationic center, C(6). These interactions provide information on the origin of the stereoselectivity observed in nucleophilic attack on these cations. The conformations, details of the C—O bonding, and closest contacts between cation and anion are discussed in terms of the concept of stereoelectronic control. Key words: 6-ethoxytetrahydropyrylium cations, lactonium salts, structure, X-ray, stereoelectronic control.

Two new bimetallic complexes [Zn(phen)3][Fe(CN)5(NO)] · 2 H2O · 0.25 MeOH, (1) and [(bipy)2(H2O)Zn(μ-NC)Fe(CN)4(NO)] · 0.5 H2O, (2), have been isolated (where phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bipy = bipyridyl) and characterised by X-ray crystallography [as the 2 H2O · 0.25 CH3OH solvate for (1) and hemihydrate for (2)] infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Substitution of phenanthroline for bipyridyl resulted in a cyano-bridged bimetallic species rather than two discrete mononuclear metal complexes. The bond angles of Fe-N-O were shown to be practically linear for both 1 [179.2(7)°] and 2 [178.3(3)°], and the Zn atoms have distorted octahedral geometry. The solvent molecules in both crystal lattices take part in forming hydrogen-bonded networks.

The reaction of PhECl2 with 2 equiv of LiHN-t-Bu has been studied for the series E = As, Sb, and Bi to determine the effect of the phenyl group on subsequent amine condensation processes. For PhAsCl2, the metathesis product PhAs(NH-t-Bu)2 4 was obtained as a colourless oil. Similar reactions involving PhECl2, where E = Sb or Bi, yielded the cyclodipnict(III)azanes PhE(μ-N-t-Bu)2EPh 5 (E = Sb) and 6 (E = Bi), respectively. Treatment of 4 with 2 equiv of n-BuLi produced the dilithium salt Li2[PhAs(N-t-Bu)2] 7a. Products 4, 5, 6, and 7a were characterized by 1H, 7Li (7a), and 13C NMR spectra, while 5, 6, and 7a were also structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Compound 7a is dimeric in the solid state via intermolecular Li···N and η6-Li···Ph interactions. The cyclodipnict(III)azanes 5 and 6 have similar structures, with the exocyclic phenyl groups in trans positions relative to the E2N2 ring. This synthetic approach provides a new route to the four-membered rings RE(μ-N-t-Bu)2ER (E = Sb, Bi) and the first example of a bis(organyl)cyclodibism(III)azane.Key words: arsenic, antimony, bismuth, amides, imides.

The X-ray crystal structure of the title material has been determined at −130 °C. Low-temperature 1H1H COSY, 13C1H HETCOR, and DEPT 13C NMR spectra have been recorded, which permit unambiguous assignments of all carbon resonances when ring inversion is slow on the NMR timescale. The limiting low-temperature solution phase 13C spectrum has many common features with the solid phase 13C CPMAS spectrum recorded at 300 K. Spectra for the 7,10-tetra-deuterio derivative have also been obtained and substituent influences on 13C shieldings are discussed in detail.

Irradiation of an acetonitrile–methanol (3:1) solution of 1,4-dicyanobenzene (1), biphenyl (5), and (R)-(+)-limonene (21) leads to formation of the 1:1:1 (methanol:21:1) photo-NOCAS adducts: 4-[(1R,2S,4R)-4-isopropenyl-2-methoxy-1-methylcyclohexyl]benzonitrile (23, 30%), 4-[(1S,2R,4R)-4-isopropenyl-2-methoxy-1-methylcyclohexyl]benzonitrile (24, 2%), 4-[(1R,2R,5R)-5-isopropenyl-2-methoxy-2-methylcyclohexyl]benzonitrile (25, 3%), and 4-[(1S,2S,5R)-5-isopropenyl-2-methoxy-2-methylcyclohexyl]benzonitrile (26, 1%). When an acetonitrile solution (no added methanol) of 1,4-dicyanobenzene (1), biphenyl (5), and (R)-(+)-α-terpineol (22) was irradiated under these conditions, the products were the cyclized 1:1 (22:1) photo-NOCAS adducts: (1R,2S,5R)-2-(4-cyanophenyl)-2,6,6-trimethyl-7-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (27,21%) and (1S,4R,6R)-6-(4-cyanophenyl)-1,3,3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (28, 2%). Structural assignments were based primarily upon detailed analysis of 1H and 13C nmr spectra and, for four of the products (24, 26, 27, and 28), structures were firmly established by X-ray crystallography. The mechanism for the formation of these products is discussed, with emphasis on the intramolecular reactions of the intermediate alkene radical cations. Molecular mechanics (MM3) calculations gave information regarding the structure and energy of the conformers of 21 and 22 that was useful for predicting/explaining the observed reactivity on the basis of approach vector analysis; the transition state for cyclization incorporates the nucleophile and the alkene radical cation carbon atoms at the vertices of an obtuse triangle orthogonal to the plane of the π-system. Key words: photoinduced electron transfer, radical cations, cyclization, terpenes.

It is shown by X-ray crystallography that the 1,4-dihydropyrazine skeleton of 1,4-diacetyl-1,4-dihydro-2,3-diphenylpyrazine 2 has a boat shape. The C(2)–C(3) and C(5)–C(6) double bonds are localized; therefore 2 does not exist as an azahomoaromatic entity with 6 electrons delocalized on the ring and two electrons localized on one nitrogen atom. In the solid state 2 is in a Z, Z conformation. The 1H and 13C nmr spectra indicate that 2 exists as an equilibrium mixture of Z,E, E,E, and Z,Z conformers in CD2Cl2 at −80 °C. An unambiguous assignment of the different sets of signals has been obtained by nOe experiments performed at −80 °C. The conformer distribution is the following: 65% (Z,E), 22% (E,E), and 13% (Z,Z). The relatively low barrier to rotation about the carbonyl nitrogen bonds of the two amide groups [Formula: see text] is in line with a rather large C—N bond length (~1.375 Å) in the crystal.

In aqueous solution above pH 2.4 with 4% (vol/vol) CH3CN, the complex [RuII(bda)(isoq)2] (bda is 2,2′-bipyridine-6,6′-dicarboxylate; isoq is isoquinoline) exists as the open-arm chelate, [RuII(CO2-bpy-CO2−)(isoq)2(NCCH3)], as shown by 1H and 13C-NMR, X-ray crystallography, and pH titrations. Rates of water oxidation with the open-arm chelate are remarkably enhanced by added proton acceptor bases, as measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV). In 1.0 M PO43–, the calculated half-time for water oxidation is ∼7 μs. The key to the rate accelerations with added bases is direct involvement of the buffer base in either atom–proton transfer (APT) or concerted electron–proton transfer (EPT) pathways.

Reaction of a series of diazonium salts with a mixture of formaldehyde and 1,2-diamino-2-methylpropane affords the 3-({5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]-1-imidazolidinyl}methyl)-4,4-dimethyl-1-[2-aryl-1-diazenyl]imidazolidines (1a–1f) in excellent yield. The products have been characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopic analysis, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray crystal structure of the p-methoxycarbonyl derivative (1c) establishes without question the connectivity of these novel molecules, which can be described as linear bicyclic oligomers with two imidazolidinyl groups linked together by a one-carbon spacer. This is indeed a rare molecular building block. The molecular structure is corroborated by 1H and 13C NMR data, which correlates with the previously published data of compounds of types 5 and 6 derived from 1,3-propanediamine. The triazene moieties in the crystal of 1c display significant π conjugation, which gives the N—N bond a significant degree of double-bond character. This in turn causes restricted rotation around the N—N bond, which leads to considerable broadening of signals in both the 1H and 13C NMR spectra. The molecular ion of the p-cyanophenyl derivative (1b) was observed using electrospray mass spectrometry (ES + Na). The mechanism of formation of molecules of type 1 is proposed to involve diazonium ion trapping of the previously unreported bisimidazolidinyl methane (13).Key words: triazene, bistriazene, imidazolidine, synthesis, X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy.

1,1,3,3-Tetracyanopropane, 1, was prepared in low yields by a literature method with 2,2,4,4,6-pentacyanocyclohexenamine, 2, as a major by-product. The products were examined by X-ray crystallography. 1 has an orthorhombic space group, Pbcn (No. 60) with cell dimensions, a = 7.158(2), b = 10.510(3), c = 9.733(2) Å and has four formula units in the unit cell. 2 has a monoclinic cell, P21/c (No. 14) with cell dimensions a = 14.368(3), b = 6.626(1), c = 12.300(2) Å, β = 115.60(1)° and has 4 formula units in the unit cell. Data were collected with use of MoKα radiation and a Nicolet P3 diffractometer. The crystal structures were determined by standard methods and refined to Rw = 0.037 (1) and Rw = 0.040 (2) on the basis of 782 and 2108 unique reflections. Bond lengths and angles in the two compounds are normal. 2 has what has been considered to be the less likely tautomeric structure. Both compounds were examined by 1H, 13C nmr, vibrational spectroscopy, and mass spectroscopy. For 2 there was no evidence of the alternative tautomeric structure. New methods were developed for the preparation of both compounds and the mechanism of the original reaction rationalized.
