Dimethylformamide Alcohol

Determination of the molecular weight of polymers is complicated by the fact that most of the amphiphilic polymers are either completely insoluble, or only partially soluble in common organic solvents. The following amphijiiiles have been reported to form polymers that are partly soluble Acid 6 in hot 1,4-dioxane or cydohexa-none acid 16 in dimethylformamide alcohol 35 in decaline the pyridinium salts 48 and 49 in a 1 1 mixture of diloroform and methanol and the phos oli-pids 66 and 67 in diloroform... 

The experimental conditions for conducting the above reaction in the presence of dimethylformamide as a solvent are as follows. In a 250 ml. three-necked flask, equipped with a reflux condenser and a tantalum wire Hershberg-type stirrer, place 20 g. of o-chloronitrobenzene and 100 ml. of diinethylform-amide (dried over anhydrous calcium sulphate). Heat the solution to reflux and add 20 g. of activated copper bronze in one portion. Heat under reflux for 4 hours, add another 20 g. portion of copper powder, and continue refluxing for a second 4-hour period. Allow to cool, pour the reaction mixture into 2 litres of water, and filter with suction. Extract the solids with three 200 ml. portions of boiling ethanol alternatively, use 300 ml. of ethanol in a Soxhlet apparatus. Isolate the 2 2- dinitrodiphenyl from the alcoholic extracts as described above the 3ueld of product, m.p. 124-125°, is 11 - 5 g.

Trifluoromethanesulfonic acid is miscible in all proportions with water and is soluble in many polar organic solvents such as dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, and acetonitrile. In addition, it is soluble in alcohols, ketones, ethers, and esters, but these generally are not suitably inert solvents. The acid reacts with ethyl ether to give a colorless, Hquid oxonium complex, which on further heating gives the ethyl ester and ethylene. Reaction with ethanol gives the ester, but in addition dehydration and ether formation occurs. 

Hydroxyacetanilide. This derivative (21), also known as 4-acetamidophenol, acetaminophen, or paracetamol, forms large white monoclinic prisms from water. The compound is odorless and has a bitter taste. 4-Hydroxyacetani1 ide is insoluble in petroleum ether, pentane, and ben2ene slightly soluble in diethyl ether and cold water and soluble in hot water, alcohols, dimethylformamide, 1,2-dichloroethane, acetone, and ethyl acetate. The dissociation constant, pfC, is 9.5 (25°C). 

Solubility. Poly(vinyl alcohol) is only soluble in highly polar solvents, such as water, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetamide, glycols, and dimethylformamide. The solubiUty in water is a function of degree of polymerization (DP) and hydrolysis (Fig. 4). Fully hydrolyzed poly(vinyl alcohol) is only completely soluble in hot to boiling water. However, once in solution, it remains soluble even at room temperature. Partially hydrolyzed grades are soluble at room temperature, although grades with a hydrolysis of 70—80% are only soluble at water temperatures of 10—40°C. Above 40°C, the solution first becomes cloudy (cloud point), followed by precipitation of poly(vinyl alcohol). 

Stability. Avermectins are highly lipophilic substances and dissolve in most organic solvents such as chloroform, methylene chloride, acetone, alcohols, toluene, cyclohexane, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, and tetrahydrofiiran. Thek solubiUty in water is correspondingly low, only 0.006-0.009 ppm (= mg/L). 

Sodium cyanide is soluble in Hquid ammonia. At temperatures below —31°C, sodium cyanide pentaammoniate [69331-34-6] NaCN-5NH3, separates in large flat crystals. At 15°C, 100 g anhydrous methanol dissolves 6.44 g anhydrous sodium cyanide at 67.4°C, it dissolves 4.10 g. Sodium cyanide hemihydrate [69331 -35-7] NaCNO.5 H2O, has been obtained by recrystaUization from cold 85% alcohol. The system NaCN—NaOH—H20 has been studied (48,49). Sodium cyanide is slightly soluble in formamide, ethanol, methanol, SO2, furfural, and dimethylformamide. 

NaBH4 is soluble in water, alcohols, pyridine, dioxane, dimethoxyethane, diglyme and triglyme. All these solvents, as well as aqueous tetrahydrofuran and aqueous dimethylformamide, have been used for reductions. The reductions go very slowly in di- and triglyme so these solvents are not suitable for preparative work. In some reductions in dry pyridine and dry dimethyl sulfoxide, reaction only takes place on aqueous work-up. This... 

The acid-catalyzed opening of 16,17-epoxy-20-ketones has also been studied in some detail. In this instance, jS elimination to give a, -unsaturated ketone cannot occur, and in the simplest examples 16 -substituted 17a-alcohols are formed. However, in the presence of a 16jS-methyl substituent, 16-methylene compounds are produced [(167), (168), for example]. Lithium bromide-lithium carbonate in refluxing dimethylformamide gives the A -17a-alcohol. ... 

Alcoholic potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide are normally used to convert the halohydrins to oxiranes. Other bases have also been employed to effect ring closure in the presence of labile functional groups such as a-ketols, e.g., potassium acetate in ethanol, potassium acetate in acetone or potassium carbonate in methanol.However, weaker bases can lead to solvolytic side reactions. Ring closure under neutral conditions employing potassiunT fluoride in dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide or A-methyl-pyrrolidone has been reported in the patent literature. 

The interaction of (10) with vinylmagnesiiim chloride yields, after hydrolysis of the ketal group, 46% of the 3a-vinyl-l7-ketone (11b) and 7% of the 3j5-vinyl-17-ketone (12b). Ethynylation of (10) with potassium acetylide in dimethylformamide or with acetylene and potassium t-amyloxide in t-amyl alcohol-ether gives only the 3a-ethynyl derivative (11c) in 63% and 74% yields, respectively. ... 

An inert solvent such as benzene, toluene or xylene, or an excess of the alcohol corresponding to the alkoxide is often used as solvent. When a dipolar aprotic solvent such as A,A-dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is used, the reaction often proceeds at higher rate. 

A 500-ml, three-necked, round-bottom flask is fitted with a mechanical stirrer, a pressure-equalizing addition funnel and a reflux condenser (drying tube). The flask is charged with 100 ml of dry dimethylformamide, 9.2 ml (0.1 mole) of dry -butyl alcohol, and 28 g (0.107 mole) of dry triphenylphosphine. The flask is cooled in a water bath, stirring is begun, and bromine (approx. 16 g, 0.1 mole) is added over about 15 minutes. 

The following is taken from U.S. Patent 3,061,517. Sixteen grams of racemic 3-(2-pYridyl)-3-p-bromophenyl-N,N,-dimethylpropylamine and 9,7 grams of d-phenylsuccinic acid are dissolved in 150 ml of absolute alcohol and kept at room temperature until crystallization is effected. The crystals are filtered, washed with absolute ethyl alcohol, and recrystallized from the same solvent using 5 ml thereof per gram of solid. Three subsequent crystallizations from 80% alcohol give d-3-(2-pYridYl)-3-p-bromophenYl-N,N-dimethylpropYlamine-d-phenylsuccinate MP 152°-154°C 91 (concentration, 1% in dimethylformamide).

Polymer-supported amino alcohols and quaternary ammonium salts catalyze the enan-tioselective addition of dialkylzinc reagents to aldehydes (Table 31). When the quaternary ammonium salt F is used in hexane, it is in the solid state, and it catalyzes the alkylation of benzaldehyde with diethylzinc in good chemical yield and moderate enantioselectivity. On the other hand, when a mixture of dimethylformamide and hexane is used as solvent, the ammonium salt is soluble and no enantioselectivity is observed21. 

Cross-hnked polyacrylamides are a group of hydrophihc solid supports introduced primarily for preparation of biopolymers (Fig. 4). Unhke PS resins, polyacrylamides have excellent swelling capacity in both protic (water, alcohols) and aprotic (dichloromethane, dimethylformamide) solvents [88]. These beads are stable towards bases, acids, and weak reducing and oxidizing agents [89]. Predictably, conditions under which amide bonds are cleaved (i.e., sodium in liquid ammonia) [90] lead to rapid decomposition of the polymer. 

Phenols and primary alcohols form ethers when heated with dicyclohexylcarbo-diimide (DCC see 10-23). 1,2-Diols can be converted to epoxides by treatment with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal, (MeO)2CHNMc2, with diethyl azodi-carboxylate, EtOOCN=NCOOEt, and Ph3P with a diaUcoxytriphenylphospho-rane, ° or with TsCl-NaOH-PhCH2NEt3+ CP. ...
