Acrylic ester hydrogen bonding

Treatment of 2-methylthiirane with t-butyl hydroperoxide at 150 °C in a sealed vessel gave very low yields of allyl disulfide, 2-propenethiol and thioacetone. The allyl derivatives may be derived from abstraction of a hydrogen atom from the methyl group followed by ring opening to the allylthio radical. Percarbonate derivatives of 2-hydroxymethylthiirane decompose via a free radical pathway to tar. Acrylate esters of 2-hydroxymethylthiirane undergo free radical polymerization through the double bond. 

A primary allylic hydrogen at the ene 1 is especially reactive a secondary hydrogen migrates less facile, and a tertiary one is even less reactive. The enophile unit should be of an electron-poor nature it can consist of a carbon-carbon double or triple bond, a carbonyl group or an azo group. Mixtures of regioisomeric products may be obtained with substituted enophiles. The acrylic ester 6 reacts with... 

By contrast, a recent, detailed mechanism of the enantiomeric hydrogenation of a-(acylamino)acrylic esters catalyzed by Ru((S)-binap)(OAc)2 follows that of Scheme 3.3, where both H atoms from the dihydrogen add to the C=C double bond [85]. The high enantioselectivity of the process is produced, in part, by the chelation of the alkene substrate via the C=C double bond and by a carbonyl oxygen of the substrate [86]. 

In contrast, reactions of esters of unsaturated acids with the sulfur tetrafluoride/hydrogen fluoride/chlorine reagent result in formal addition of C1F across the C = C bond to formchloro-fluoroalkanoic acid esters. The Markovnikov-type addition occurs in reactions with methacrylic and but-2-enoic esters to give 3-chloro-2-fluoro esters, e.g. 17, while from acrylic esters anti-Markovnikov products, 2-chloro-3-fluoro esters, e.g. 16, are formed.242... 

BINAP-Ru-catalyzed hydrogenation of /3-substituted ( )-/3-(acylamino)acrylates gives /3-amino acid derivatives with a high e.e. (Eq. 2.3) [33]. The Z double-bond isomers that have an intramolecular hydrogen bond between amide and ester groups are more reactive, but are hydrogenated with a poor enantioselectivity. 

This property depends upon the structure of the acrylic resin. Most of the resins are soluble in moderately hydrogen-bonded solvents (e.g. ketones, esters, chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons). Resins with more alcohol chains have greater solubility in alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons and naphtha.

The spatial arrangement of absorbed water at low partial pressure is proposed to be in hydrogen bonds between two amide units in nylon 66 by Starkweather [25], at hydrogen bonding sites (ester or carboxyl groups) in amorphous acrylic polymers by Brown [26], at polar groups in epoxy resins by Moy and Karasz...
