Condensation product

Greenish-yellow needles or prisms, m.p. 148-149 C, sparingly soluble in cold water. Gives crystalline condensation products with aldehydes. 

In the following examples, pinacol is oxidised to acetone, which is identified as its semicarba2one and its 2,4 dinitrophenylhydra2one, and glycerol is oxidised to formaldehyde and formic acid. The formaldehy de is readily detected by the condensation product which it gives with dimedone, 5,5-dimethylcyclohexan-i,3-dione (p, 277). 

Note that p-acetamidobenzenesulphonyl chloride will similarly react with primary and secondary amines, and the products, after hydrolysis of the acetyl group, may furnish notable drugs e.g., the condensation products with 2-amino-pyridine and 2-aminothiazole, after remo al of the acetyl groups, provide the drugs commonly known as sulphapyridine (M B 693) and sulphathidzole respectively. 

Now heat the tube very gently at first and then more strongly. A non-conden-sible product such as hydrogen or methane is best detected by collecting a sample of the gas in a test-tube as shown in Fig. 71(A). A condensible product such as benzene or phenol should be collected by twisting the delivery-tube downwards and collecting the liquid in a few ml. of water in a test-tube as shown In Fig. 71(B). 

Molisch s Test. Dissolve about 01 g. of the carbohydrate in z ml. of water (for starch use 2 ml. of starch solution ), add 2-3 drops of a 1 % alcoholic solution of i-naphthol (ignoring traces of the latter precipitated by the water) and then carefully pour 2 ml. of cone. H2SO4 down the side of the test-tube so that it forms a heavy layer at the bottom. A deep violet coloration is produced where the liquids meet. This coloration is due apparently to the formation of an unstable condensation product of i-naphthol with furfural (an aldehyde produced by the dehydration of the carbohydrate). 

The condensation products are almost insoluble in water, but can be crystallised from dilute alcohol. Dimedone is therefore a good reagent for the detection and characterisation of aldehydes. 

Many of these are crystalline compounds of sharp m.p. and are therefore useful for identification and characterisation. These include the condensation products with ... 

Equip a 1 Utre three-necked flask or a 1 litre bolt- head flask with a reflux condenser and a mercury-sealed stirrer. Dissolve 50-5 g. of commercial 2 4-dinitro-l-chlorobenzene in 250 ml. of rectified spirit in the flask, add the hydrazine solution, and reflux the mixture with stirring for an hour. Most of the condensation product separates during the first 10 minutes. Cool, filter with suction, and wash with 50 ml. of warm (60°) rectified spirit to remove unchanged dinitrochlorobenzene, and then with 50 ml. of hot water. The resulting 2 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (30 g.) melts at 191-192° (decomp.), and is pure enough for most purposes. Distil oflF half the alcohol from the filtrate and thus obtain a less pure second crop (about 12 g.) recrystallise this from n-butyl alcohol (30 ml. per gram). If pure 2 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine is required, recrystallise the total yield from n-butyl alcohol or from dioxan (10 ml. per gram) this melts at 200° (decomp.). 

The aniline then reacts with the ap-unsaturated aldehyde by 1 4-addition the addition product, under the influence of strong acid, cyclises to form 1 2-dihydroquinaldine. The latter is dehydrogenated by the condensation products of aniline with acetaldehyde and with crotonaldehyde simultaneously produced ( .c., ethylideneaniline and crotonylideneaniline) these anils act as hydrogen acceptors and are thereby converted into ethylaniline and n-butyl-aniline respectively. 

The equilibrium of the overall reaction Is shifted in the direction of the condensation product by the precipitation of the p diketone as its sodium salt. 

The above is an example of the Guareschi reaction. It is applicable to most dialkyl ketones and to alicyclic ketones (e.g., cyclohexanone, cyc/opentanone, etc.). The condensation product (I) is probably formed by a simple Knoe-venagel reaction of the ketone and ethyl cyanoacetate to yield ethyl a-cyano-pp dimethylacrylate (CH3)2C=C(CN)COOCjHj, followed by a Michael ad tion of a second molecule of ethyl cyanoacetate finally, the carbethoxyl groups are converted to the cyclic imide structure by the action of ammonia. 

The catalysed nitration of phenol gives chiefly 0- and />-nitrophenol, (< 0-1% of w-nitrophenol is formed), with small quantities of dinitrated compound and condensed products. The ortho para ratio is very dependent on the conditions of reaction and the concentration of nitrous acid. Thus, in aqueous solution containing sulphuric acid (i 75 mol 1 ) and nitric acid (0-5 mol 1 ), the proportion of oriha-substitution decreases from 73 % to 9 % as the concentration of nitrous acid is varied from o-i mol l i. However, when acetic acid is the solvent the proportion of ortAo-substitution changes from 44 % to 74 % on the introduction of dinitrogen tetroxide (4-5 mol 1 ). 

Difunctional target molecules are generally easily disconnected in a re/ro-Michael type transform. As an example we have chosen a simple symmetrical molecule, namely 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,6-heptanedione. Only p-anisaldehyde and two acetone equivalents are needed as starting materials. The antithesis scheme given helow is self-explanatory. The aldol condensation product must be synthesized first and then be reacted under controlled conditions with a second enolate (e.g. a silyl enolate plus TiCl4 or a lithium enolate), enamine (M. Pfau, 1979), or best with acetoacetic ester anion as acetone equivalents. 

Then N-Boc-O-benzylserine is coupled to the free amino group with DCC. This concludes one cycle (N° -deprotection, neutralization, coupling) in solid-phase synthesis. All three steps can be driven to very high total yields (< 99.5%) since excesses of Boc-amino acids and DCC (about fourfold) in CHjClj can be used and since side-reactions which lead to soluble products do not lower the yield of condensation product. One side-reaction in DCC-promoted condensations leads to N-acylated ureas. These products will remain in solution and not reaa with the polymer-bound amine. At the end of the reaction time, the polymer is filtered off and washed. The times consumed for 99% completion of condensation vary from 5 min for small amino acids to several hours for a bulky amino acid, e.g. Boc-Ile, with other bulky amino acids on a resin. A new cycle can begin without any workup problems (R.B. Merrifield, 1969 B.W. Erickson, 1976 M. Bodanszky, 1976). 

Amino-5-nitrothiazole, on treatment with arenesulfonyl halides and dimethylformamide at 140 C, gives (5-nitro-2-thiazolyl)amidme (274) (Scheme 168) (507, 508). The condensation products of the reaction of 2-aminothiazole derivatives with various aldehydes are grouped in Tables... 

The 5-substituted 2-methyl-A-2-thiazoline-4-one derivative (188) yields a condensation product (189) when treated with p-dimethylamino-benzaldehyde Scheme 98 (434). The condensation occurs on the a-2. carbon. 

In 1886, Ginsburg and Bondzynski (71) and Berlinerblau (72) developed the reaction of rhodanine with aldehydes, but proposed a chain formula for the condensation product.

Those polymers which are the condensation product of two different monomers are named by applying the preceding rules to the repeat unit. For example, the polyester formed by the condensation of ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid is called poly(oxyethylene oxyterphthaloyl) according to the lUPAC system, as well as poly (ethylene terephthalate) or polyethylene terephthalate. 

Aromatic polyimides are the first example we shall consider of polymers with a rather high degree of backbone ring character. This polymer is exemplified by the condensation product of pyromellitic dianhydride [Vll] and p-amino-aniline [Vlll] ... 

The bifunctionality of the bis-diene and bis-dienophile monomers is apparent from the condensation product, structure [XXI], which still contains a diene and a dienophile in the same molecule. This polymer is crystalline, indicating a high degree of stereoregularity in the condensed rings. It decomposes to a graphitic material before melting. 

Furfural has been used as a component in many resin appHcations, most of them thermosetting. A comprehensive review of the patent Hterature describing these uses is beyond the scope of this review. A few, selected recent patents and journal articles have been referenced. Resins prepared from the condensation products of furfural with urea (47), formaldehyde (48), phenols (49,50), etc, modified by appropriate binders and fillers are described in the technical Hterature for earlier appHcations, see reference 1, which contains many references in an appendix. 

Positive-Tone Photoresists based on Dissolution Inhibition by Diazonaphthoquinones. The intrinsic limitations of bis-azide—cycHzed mbber resist systems led the semiconductor industry to shift to a class of imaging materials based on diazonaphthoquinone (DNQ) photosensitizers. Both the chemistry and the imaging mechanism of these resists (Fig. 10) differ in fundamental ways from those described thus far (23). The DNQ acts as a dissolution inhibitor for the matrix resin, a low molecular weight condensation product of formaldehyde and cresol isomers known as novolac (24). The phenoHc stmcture renders the novolac polymer weakly acidic, and readily soluble in aqueous alkaline solutions. In admixture with an appropriate DNQ the polymer s dissolution rate is sharply decreased. Photolysis causes the DNQ to undergo a multistep reaction sequence, ultimately forming a base-soluble carboxyHc acid which does not inhibit film dissolution. Immersion of a pattemwise-exposed film of the resist in an aqueous solution of hydroxide ion leads to rapid dissolution of the exposed areas and only very slow dissolution of unexposed regions. In contrast with crosslinking resists, the film solubiHty is controUed by chemical and polarity differences rather than molecular size. 

I ovolac Synthesis and Properties. Novolac resins used in DNQ-based photoresists are the most complex, the best-studied, the most highly engineered, and the most widely used polymers in microlithography. Novolacs are condensation products of phenoHc monomers (typically cresols or other alkylated phenols) and formaldehyde, formed under acid catalysis. Figure 13 shows the polymerization chemistry and polymer stmcture formed in the step growth polymerization (31) of novolac resins.
