Triflates of phenols are carbonylated to form aromatic esters by using PhjP[328]. The reaction is 500 times faster if dppp is used[329]. This reaction is a good preparative method for benzoates from phenols and naphthoates (473) from naphthols. Carbonylation of the bis-triflate of axially chiral 1,1 -binaphthyl-2,2 -diol (474) using dppp was claimed to give the monocarboxy-late 475(330]. However, the optically pure dicarboxylate 476 is obtained under similar conditions[331]. The use of 4.4 equiv. of a hindered amine (ethyldiisopropylamine) is crucial for the dicarbonylation. The use of more or less than 4.4 equiv. of the amine gives the monoester 475. 

Cyclohexanedimethanol (47) starts from dimethyl terephthalate. The aromatic ring is hydrogenated in methanol to dimethyl cyclohexane-l,4-dicarboxylate (hexahydro-DMT) and the ester groups are further reduced under high pressure to the bis primary alcohol, usually as a 68/32 mixture of trans and cis forms. The mixed diol is a sticky low melting soHd, mp 45—50°C. It is of interest that waste PET polymer maybe direcdy hydrogenated in methanol to cyclohexanedimethanol (48). 

Polycarbonates. Polyarjiates are aromatic polyesters commonly prepared from aromatic dicarboxylic acids and diphenols. One of the most important polyarylates is polycarbonate, a polyester of carbonic acid. Polycarbonate composite is extensively used in the automotive industry because the resin is a tough, corrosion-resistant material. Polycarbonates (qv) can be prepared from aUphatic or aromatic materials by two routes reaction of a dihydroxy compound with phosgene accompanied by Hberation ofHCl(eq. 5) ... 

PolybenZimidaZoles. The polyben2imida2oles (PBIs) are generally produced by the high temperature, melt polycondensation reaction of aromatic bis-ortho-diamines and aromatic dicarboxylates (acids, esters, or amides) in a reaction such as that shown in equation 11 to form ben2imida2ole [51-17-2] as the repeating unit.

The present method for preparing aromatic dicarboxylic acids has been used to convert phthalic or isophthalic acid to tereph-thalic acid (90-95%) 2,2 -biphenyldicarboxylic acid to 4,4 -biphenyldicarboxylic acid 3,4-pyrroledicarboxylic acid to 2,5-pyr-roledicarboxylic acid and 2,3-pyridinedicarboxylic acid to 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid. A closely related method for preparing aromatic dicarboxylic acids is the thermal disproportionation of the potassium salt of an aromatic monocarboxylic acid to an equimolar mixture of the corresponding aromatic hydrocarbon and the dipotassium salt of an aromatic dicarboxylic acid. The disproportionation method has been used to convert benzoic acid to terephthalic acid (90-95%) pyridine-carboxylic acids to 2,5-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (30-50%) 2-furoic acid to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid 2-thiophenecar-boxylic acid to 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid and 2-quinoline-carboxylic acid to 2,4-quinolinedicarboxylic acid. One or the other of these two methods is often the best way to make otherwise inaccessible aromatic dicarboxylic acids. The two methods were recently reviewed. ... 

The mechanism of the Fiesselmann reaction between methylthioglycolate and a,P-acetylenic esters proceeds via consecutive base-catalyzed 1,4-conjugate addition reactions to form thioacetal Enolate formation, as a result of treatment with a stronger base, causes a Dieckmann condensation to occur providing ketone 8. Elimination of methylthioglycolate and tautomerization driven by aromaticity provides the 3-hydroxy thiophene dicarboxylate 9. 

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 isomeric pyridazino[4,5-6]azepine 19 is obtained directly during the decomplexation of the [4 + 2] adduct 17 formed from tricarbonyl(ethyl +17/-azepine-l-carboxylate)iron and 1,2,4,5-tetrazine-3,6-dicarboxylate, with trimethylamine A-oxide.113 Surprisingly, decomplexation of adduct 17 with tetrachloro-l,2-benzoquinone yields only the dihydro derivative 18 (71 %), aromatization of which is achieved in high yield with trimethylamine A-oxide in refluxing benzene. 

The reaction of dimethyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine-3,6-dicarboxylate 353 with aromatic amines gave (82CB683) pyrazolo[3,4-e][l,2,4]triazines 354 (Scheme 75). 

Some of the typical conditions of polycondensations used for aliphatic and aromatic monomers are not suitable for furan derivatives, e.g., the melt polycondensation of 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid chloride with 2,5-b/s(hydroxymethyl) furan at about 80 °C only yields a black insoluble product5. The hydrochloric acid liberated in the reaction is clearly responsible for the charring of the furanic diol which like its simpler homologue furfuryl alcohol, resinifies rapidly in acidic media (see below). 

From the preceding discussion, it is easily understood that direct polyesterifications between dicarboxylic acids and aliphatic diols (Scheme 2.8, R3 = H) and polymerizations involving aliphatic or aromatic esters, acids, and alcohols (Scheme 2.8, R3 = alkyl group, and Scheme 2.9, R3 = H) are rather slow at room temperature. These reactions must be carried out in the melt at high temperature in the presence of catalysts, usually metal salts, metal oxides, or metal alkoxides. Vacuum is generally applied during the last steps of the reaction in order to eliminate the last traces of reaction by-product (water or low-molar-mass alcohol, diol, or carboxylic acid such as acetic acid) and to shift the reaction toward the... 

Sulfur compounds have also been widely studied as activating agents for polyesterification reactions. p-Toluenesulfonyl chloride (tosyl chloride) reacts with DMF in pyridine to form a Vilsmeir adduct which easily reacts with carboxylic acids at 100-120° C, giving highly reactive mixed carboxylic-sulfonic anhydrides.312 The reaction is efficient both for aromatic dicarboxylic acid-bisphenol312 and hydroxybenzoic acid314 polyesterifications (Scheme 2.31). The formation of phenyl tosylates as significant side products of this reaction has been reported.315... 

Bu2Sn(lV)] complexes formed for pyridine mono- and dicarboxylic acids (Figure 20) containing -COO group(s) and aromatic N donor atom were prepared. 

N-Substituted amides can be prepared by direct attack of isocyanates on aromatic rings.The R group may be alkyl or aryl, but if the latter, dimers and trimers are also obtained. Isothiocyanates similarly give thioamides. The reaction has been carried out intramolecularly both with aralkyl isothiocyanates and acyl isothiocyanates.In the latter case, the product is easily hydrolyzable to a dicarboxylic acid this is a way of putting a carboxyl group on a ring ortho to one already there (34 is...
