Dicarboxylate system

Complexes containing unidentate coordination have depended for their characterization upon physicochemical methods rather than structural determinations. The monomeric octahedral co-balt(III) complex [Co(en)2X(ox)], where X = halogen or OH, provides one of the few examples of unidentate oxalate coordination the conformation was determined from IR data.65 By contrast, there are numerous examples of structurally characterized chelating dicarboxylate systems. There are several structural determinations of different forms of oxalic acid and its ions but the most useful for comparative purposes are those of a-oxalic acid and anhydrous sodium oxalate. Using the planar ( >2 ) oxalate ion and acid as benchmarks it can be seen (Table 4) that the rj4 oxalate ligand (bite = 265 pm)66 has two long and two short C—O bonds. The coordinated C—O(M) bond resembles the C—O bond of the acid while the free C=0 bonds are similar to those in the oxalate...

The transporters have overlapping specificities. Thus, there is one transporter (called system L) for leucine and neutral amino acids with branched or aromatic side chains, another for basic amino acids (the Ly system), and a low-activity carrier (the dicarboxylate system) for dicarboxylic amino acids.

In Summary The systematic naming of the carboxylic acids is based on the alkanoic acid stem. Cyclic derivatives are called cycloalkanecarboxylic acids, their aromatic counterparts are referred to as benzoic acids, and dicarboxylic systems are labeled alkanedioic acids.

The Diels-Alder Reaction consists in the direct combination of a compound containing a conjugated diene system u ith a reagent which possesses a double or triple bond activated bj suitable adjacent groups. Examples of such reagents are maleic anhydride, p-benzoquinone, acraldehyde and acetylene dicarboxylic esters. Combination always occurs at the 1,4 positions of the diene system ... 

The polyamides poly(hexamethylene sebacamide) and poly(hexamethylene adipamide) are also widely known as nylon-6,10 and nylon-6,6, respectively. The numbers following the word nylon indicate the number of carbon atoms in the diamine and dicarboxylic acid, in that order. On the basis of this same system, poly (e-caprolactam) is also known as nylon-6. 

G-19 Dicarboxylic Acids. The C-19 dicarboxyhc acids are generally mixtures of isomers formed by the reaction of carbon monoxide on oleic acid. Since the reaction produces a mixture of isomers, no single chemical name can be used to describe them. Names that have been used include 2-nonyldecanedioic acid, 2-octylundecanedioic acid, l,8-(9)-heptadecanedicarboxyhc acid, and 9-(10)-carboxystearic acid. The name 9-(10)-carboxystearic acid can be used correctiy if the product is made with no double bond isomerization (rhodium triphenylphosphine catalyst system). 

The cleavage of fused pyrazines represents an important method of synthesis of substituted pyrazines, particularly pyrazinecarboxylic acids. Pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylic acid is usually prepared by the permanganate oxidation of either quinoxalines or phenazines. The pyrazine ring resembles the pyridine ring in its stability rather than the other diazines, pyridazine and pyrimidine. Fused systems such as pteridines may easily be converted under either acidic or basic conditions into pyrazine derivatives (Scheme 75). 

The seven-membered CN3S3 ring, another ten 7r-electron system, was first obtained as the ester 12.19 (R = COaMe), which is a minor product of the reaction of S4N4 with dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate. It has a planar structure with bond lengths that indicate delocalization. The parent 1,3,5,2,4,6-trithiatriazepine 12.19 (R = H) is obtained as a colourless solid by carefully heating the ester with aqueous HCl followed by decarboxylation. ... 

Molecules of the complexity open-chain dicarboxylic acids typically exist as a collection of many different conformers, and the conformer displayed for each system corresponds to the lowest-energy strucmre. 

In 1910, Hinsberg described the reaction between benzil and diethylthiodiacetate, resulting in the preparation of the thiophene ring system. The reaction was run under Claisen condensation conditions, and after hydrolysis with aqueous acid at reflux, the free dicarboxylic acid 1 was produced. 

Bamford and Mullik [23] have also investigated a new photoinitiating system composed of Mn2(CO)io or Re2(CO)io with acetylene, acetylene dicarboxylic acid, diethyl fumarate, diethyl maleate, or maleic anhydride. It was concluded that the primary radical responsible... 

Substituted 1-benzoxepins can be obtained by the cycloaddition of activated acetylenes to the benzofuran system. When 2-(Af-mcthylanilino)benzofurans is treated with dimethyl acetylene-dicarboxylate, substituted 1-benzoxepins 1 are obtained in reasonable yield.180,181 This reaction presumably involves a 2a,7b-dihydrocyclobuta[6]bcnzofuran as an intermediate (see Section 4.2).182... 

The aromatization of the oxepin structure can be accompanied by other acid-catalyzed reactions such as the hydrolysis of ketals. Dimethyl 11 -oxo-6-oxabicyclo[5.4.0]undeca-l (7),2,4-triene-2,3-dicarboxylate ethylene ketal reacts in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid to give the tetralone system 3.133... 

The only heterocyclic seven-membered ring system with maximum unsaturation containing six heteroatoms is 1,3A4,5,2,4,6-trithiatriazepine (1). The methoxycarbonyl derivative 2 is a minor product (14%) of the complex reaction of tetrasulfur tetranitride with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylatc in refluxing toluene, which gives mainly dimethyl l,2,5-thiadiazole-3,4-dicarboxylate (3, 67%) (see Houben-Wcyl, Vol. E8d, pl54ff which includes an experimental procedure). Two other products are the trithiadiazepine 4 (5%, see Section 4.4.1.1.1.) and the 1,2,4-thiadiazole derivative 5 (3%).385... 

The epoxidation method developed by Noyori was subsequently applied to the direct formation of dicarboxylic acids from olefins [55], Cyclohexene was oxidized to adipic acid in 93% yield with the tungstate/ammonium bisulfate system and 4 equivalents of hydrogen peroxide. The selectivity problem associated with the Noyori method was circumvented to a certain degree by the improvements introduced by Jacobs and coworkers [56]. Additional amounts of (aminomethyl)phos-phonic acid and Na2W04 were introduced into the standard catalytic mixture, and the pH of the reaction media was adjusted to 4.2-5 with aqueous NaOH. These changes allowed for the formation of epoxides from ot-pinene, 1 -phenyl- 1-cyclohex-ene, and indene, with high levels of conversion and good selectivity (Scheme 6.3). 

The utility of thallium(III) salts as oxidants for nonaromatic unsaturated systems is a consequence of the thermal and solvolytic instability of mono-alkylthallium(III) compounds, which in turn is apparently dependent on two major factors, namely, the nature of the associated anion and the structure of the alkyl group. Compounds in which the anion is a good bidentate ligand are moderately stable, for example, alkylthallium dicar-boxylates 74, 75) or bis dithiocarbamates (76). Alkylthallium dihalides, on the other hand, are extremely unstable and generally decompose instantly. Methylthallium diacetate, for example, can readily be prepared by the exchange reaction shown in Eq. (11) it is reasonably stable in the solid state, but decomposes slowly in solution and rapidly on being heated [Eq. (23)]. Treatment with chloride ion results in the immediate formation of methyl chloride and thallium(I) chloride [Eq. (24)] (55). These facts can be accommodated on the basis that the dicarboxylates are dimeric while the...
