Diimide oxide

While this system of nomenclature is reasonably straightforward for many azoxy compounds, it is not adequate for more complex systems. It has therefore been suggested [5] that the parent azo compounds be designated N,N diimides (for R—N=N—R ) and that the azoxy compounds derived therefrom be termed diimide oxides (or monoxides).

Dia ene deductions. Olefins, acetylenes, and azo-compounds are reduced by hydrazine in the presence of an oxidizing agent. Stereochemical studies of alkene and alkyne reductions suggest that hydrazine is partially oxidized to the transient diazene [3618-05-1] (diimide, diimine) (9) and that the cis-isomer of diazene is the actual hydrogenating agent, acting by a concerted attack on the unsaturated bond ... 

The accessibility of the +4 and +6 oxidation states for sulfur and, to a lesser extent, selenium gives rise to both acyclic and cyclic molecules that have no parallels in N-O chemistry. Thus there is an extensive chemistry of chalcogen diimides RN=E=NR (E = S, Se, Te) (Section 10.4). In the case of Te these unsaturated molecules form dimeric structures reflecting the increasing reluctance for the heavier chalcogens to form multiple bonds to nitrogen. The acyclic molecule N=Sp3,... 

The available studies indicate that diimide has been used as a reducing agent for the preparation of HNBR. It has been used mainly as an alternative for hydrogenation of nitrile rubber latex. The use of diimide to hydrogenate low-molecular weight olefines is well known in the organic literature [93]. Diimide can be conveniently generated in situ by thermal treatment of solutions of p-tolu-enesulfonyl hydrazide or oxidation of hydrazine. 

Chlorins, e.g. 14, form adducts with osmium(VIII) oxide, which can be hydrolyzed in aqueous sodium sulfide to bacteriochlorindiols, e g. 2, or isobacteriochlorindiols, e.g. 3. Thus, similar to diimide reductions of chlorins, metal-free tetraphenylchlorin 14 (M = 2H) is selectively oxidized to a corresponding bacteriochlorin 2 whereas the zinc chlorin gives an isobac-teriochlorin 3 on oxidation with osmium(VIII) oxide.40 With less symmetrical chlorins, very complex mixtures of constitutional isomers and stereoisomers are formed by /i-bishydroxyla-tion.17... 

In the above-mentioned reactions with hydrazine and hydroxylamine, the actual reducing species is diimide (NH=NH), which is formed from N2H4 by the oxidizing agent and from NH2OH by the ethyl acetate.The rate of this reaction has been studied.Although both the syn and anti forms of diimide are produced, only the syn form reduces the double bond, at least in part by a cyclic mechanism ... 

Oxidative repair is not a unique feature of our Rh(III) complexes. We also demonstrated efficient long-range repair using a covalently tethered naphthalene diimide intercalator (li /0 1.9 V vs NHE) [151]. An intercalated ethidium derivative was ineffective at dimer repair, consistent with the fact that the reduction potential of Et is significantly below the potential of the dimer. Thymine dimer repair by a series of anthraquinone derivatives was also evaluated [151]. Despite the fact that the excited triplets are of sufficient potential to oxidize the thymine dimer ( 3 -/0 1.9 V vs NHE), the anthraquinone derivatives were unable to effect repair [152]. We attribute the lack of repair by these anthraquinone derivatives to their particularly short-lived singlet states anthraquinone derivatives that do not rapidly interconvert to the excited triplet state are indeed effective at thymine dimer repair [151]. These observations suggest that interaction of the dimer with the singlet state may be essential for repair. 

Diimide from hydrazine hydrate Diimide can be generated from hydrazine hydrate by oxidation with this hypervalent iodine compound in CH2C12. 

Since diimide exists as a transient intermediate and cannot be isolated under normal conditions, procedures for reduction by diimide necessarily involve generation of the reagent in situ1 1 11. Diimide can be generated by (i) oxidation of hydrazine, (ii) acid decomposition of azodicarboxylate salts and (iii) thermal or base-catalyzed decomposition of substituted benzenesulfonyl hydrazides. 

The procedure described is based on the selective reduction with diimide described by Ohno and Okamoto and by Nozaki and Noyori. It illustrates the generation of diimide from the air oxidation of hydrazine and the use of diimide for the selective reduction of the trans double bond in cis,trans,trans-, S,9-cyc o-dodecatriene, the product of trimerization of butadiene. ... 

Thiadiazole oxides and reduced forms are readily prepared via [4 -h 1] cyclizations (Table 4). The reagents employed for this purpose are thionyl chloride, sulfuryl chloride, sulfur tetrafluoride, N,N -bis(p-toluenesulfonyl)sulfur diimide, cyclic diimides, pentafluoroethyliminosulfur difluoride and sulfamide.

Particularly in the older literature, a and j3 designations are found. While, in many cases, this designation may simply indicate that the authors isolated two isomeric azoxy compounds of unspecified structure, where the identity of the isomers has been established the a term implies that the NO group is directly attached to the parent radical in the name, i.e., [Pg.429]
