Arenes derivatives

Reactions Involving Alkyl and Alkenyl Side Chains in Arenes and Arene Derivatives... 

In general, 1//-azepines are fragile ring systems which undergo facile ring contraction to arene derivatives under acidic, thermal, and photolytic conditions. 

Keumi et al. (1989) describe hydro-de-diazoniations of arenediazonium tetrafluo-roborates using chlorotrimethylsilane, (CH3)3SiCl), in tetrahydrofuran or tetra-hydrofuran/A A-dimethylformamide mixtures. Excellent yields were obtained with polycyclic arene derivatives such as 2-fluorene-, 2-fluorenone-, and 1-pyrenediazo-nium tetrafluoroborate and other similar diazonium salts. In a modification of this method 2-halogenofluorenones can be synthesized (see Sec. 10.6). 

As in the case of the tetrameric macrocycles discussed above, compounds 17 and 18 can be considered as porphyrinogen analogues or as heteroatom-bridged heteroaromatic calix[4]arene derivatives. The two different conformations observed for 17 and 18 have analogues in compounds 16 (Fig, 5) [15, 28-30],... 

An Unavoidable Family of Catalysts for Arene Derivative Hydrogenation... 

The partial arene derivative hydrogenation into cyclohexene or cyclohexa-diene as intermediates is also investigated. The process developed by Asahi Chemical Industry in Japan is an example of the selective formation of cyclohexene [6]. In the future, this reaction could be an active area of research due to the potential of the intermediate in organic synthesis. 

Finally, these aqueous suspensions of rhodium(O) and iridium(O) are the most efficient systems for the hydrogenation of a large variety of mono-, di-substituted and/or functionalized arene derivatives. Moreover, in our approach, the reaction mixture forms a typical two-phase system with an aqueous phase containing the nanoparticle catalyst able to be easily reused in a recycling process.

As neutral carriers for the chemical modification, 16-crown-5 and calix[4]arene derivatives possessing a triethoxysilyl group (7) and (8) were designed for Na sensors. Triethoxysilylethyl-16-crown-5(7) was then mixed with a silicone-rubber precursor for the membrane fabrication accompanying covalent bonding of the neutral carrier. Comparison of IR spectra before and after extraction of the nonbonded neutral carrier... 

Capsules are instantly formed by simple addition of two equivalents of Pd(dppp)(OTf)2 (dppp = l,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) to acetone, CH2C12 or CHC13 solutions of resorcin [4]arene derivatives having four pyridine units as pendent groups, see Figure 64.637... 

Other [AuCIL] complexes with monophosphines are those derived of o-carborane (427),2506 pyr-anoside group (428),2507 a-dimethylamino(3)ferrocenophan-2-yl,2508 calix[4]arene derived phosphites,25 or aminoxyl radical-substituted phosphines (429),2510 for which ferromagnetic interactions have been observed. 

Rhodium-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of acctamido -cinnamic in water was also achieved using pyrphos bound to poly-acrylic acid as ligand.337 Roucoux described some Rh° nanoparticles which function as reusable hydrogenation catalyst for arene derivatives in a biphasic water-liquid system.338...

Condensation of aryl halides with various active methylene compounds is readily promoted by catalytic action of palladium to give the corresponding arene derivatives containing a functionalized ethyl group [7]. Yamanaka et al. extended this chemistry to haloazoles including oxazoles, thiazoles and imidazoles [8]. Thus, in the presence of Pd(Ph3P)4,2-chlorooxazole was refluxed with phenylsulfonylacetonitrile and NaH to form 4,5-diphenyl-a-phenylsulfonyl-2-oxazoloacetonitrile, which existed predominantly as its enamine tautomer. In a similar fashion, 4-bromooxazole and 5-bromooxazole also were condensed with phenylsulfonylacetonitrile under the same conditions. 

Perhaps most dramatically of all, for the first time, bis(carbene)-substituted iridium complexes, such as [Ir(cod)(NHC)2] (NHC = 1,3-dimethyl- or 1,3-dicyclohexylimidazolin-2-ylidene] were successfully used by Herrmann and coworkers as C—H-activation catalysts in the synthesis of arylboronic acids starting from pinacolborane and arene derivatives [46].

The proposed mechanism involves either path a in which initially formed ruthenium vinylidene undergoes nonpolar pericyclic reaction or path b in which a polar transition state was formed (Scheme 6.9). According to Merlic s mechanism, the cyclization is followed by aromatization of the ruthenium cyclohexadienylidene intermediate, and reductive elimination of phenylruthenium hydride to form the arene derivatives (path c). A direct transformation of ruthenium cyclohexadienylidene into benzene product (path d) is more likely to occnir through a 1,2-hydride shift of a ruthenium alkylidene intermediate. A similar catalytic transformation was later reported by Iwasawa using W(CO)5THF catalyst [14].
