Surface heterogeneity may be inferred from emission studies such as those studies by de Schrijver and co-workers on P and on R adsorbed on clay minerals [197,198]. In the case of adsorbed pyrene and its derivatives, there is considerable evidence for surface mobility (on clays, metal oxides, sulfides), as from the work of Thomas [199], de Mayo and co-workers [200], Singer [201] and Stahlberg et al. [202]. There has also been evidence for ground-state bimolecular association of adsorbed pyrene [66,203]. The sensitivity of pyrene to the polarity of its environment allows its use as a probe of surface polarity [204,205]. Pyrene or ofter emitters may be used as probes to study the structure of an adsorbate film, as in the case of Triton X-100 on silica [206], sodium dodecyl sulfate at the alumina surface [207] and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride adsorbed onto silver electrodes from water and dimethylformamide [208]. In all cases progressive structural changes were concluded to occur with increasing surfactant adsorption. 

The bromination of 4,5-j -dihydrocortisone acetate in buffered acetic acid does not proceed very cleanly (<70%) and, in an attempt to improve this step in the cortisone synthesis, Holysz ° investigated the use of dimethylformamide (DMF) as a solvent for bromination. Improved yields were obtained (although in retrospect the homogeneity and structural assignments of some products seem questionable.) It was also observed that the combination of certain metal halides, particularly lithium chloride and bromide in hot DMF was specially effective in dehydrobromination of 4-bromodihydrocortisone acetate. Other amide solvents such as dimethylacetamide (DMA) and A-formylpiperidine can be used in place of DMF. It became apparent later that this method of dehydrobromination is also prone to produce isomeric unsaturated ketones. When applied to 2,4-dibromo-3-ketones, a substantial amount of the A -isomer is formed. 

This exercise examines the effect of basis set on the computed equilibrium structure of N,N -Dimethylformamide. 

In an initial step the reactive formylating agent is formed from N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) 2 and phosphorus oxychloride. Other N,N-disubstituted formamides have also found application for example A -methyl-A -phenylformamide is often used. The formylating agent is likely to be a chloromethyl iminium salt 4—also called the Vilsmeier complex (however its actual structure is not rigorously known)—that acts as the electrophile in an electrophilic substitution reaction with the aromatic substrate 1 (see also Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction) ... 

Samal et al. [25] reported that Ce(IV) ion coupled with an amide, such as thioacetamide, succinamide, acetamide, and formamide, could initiate acrylonitrile (AN) polymerization in aqueous solution. Feng et al. [3] for the first time thoroughly investigated the structural effect of amide on AAM polymerization using Ce(IV) ion, ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as an initiator. They found that only acetanilide (AA) and formanilide (FA) promote the polymerization and remarkably enhance Rp. The others such as formamide, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-butylacetamide, and N-cyclohexylacetamide only slightly affect the rate of polymerization. This can be shown by the relative rate (/ r), i.e., the rate of AAM polymerization initiated with ceric ion-amide divided by the rate of polymerization initiated with ceric ion alone. Rr for CAN-anilide system is approximately 2.5, and the others range from 1.04-1.11.

Coelenterazine emits chemiluminescence when dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or dimethylformamide (DMF) containing a trace amount of base. It also emits bioluminescence in aqueous media in the presence of a coelenterazine luciferase, such as Renilla luciferase or Oplophorus luciferase. In both cases, the luminescence reactions require molecular oxygen. The capability of coelenterazine to produce luminescence is attributed to the presence of the imida-zopyrazinone structure in the molecule.

The crystal structure of an interesting complex, HFe3(CO),oCN(CHj)2, has been reported (59). This species, which arises from the reaction of Fe3(CO),2 and CgHjCOCl in dimethylformamide, has structure (XXII). This compound can be viewed as a derivative of the anion Fe3(CO),o-(/i-CNCH3)H, analogous to Fe3(CO),iH . No doubt such an anion (as yet unknown) would be extremely basic, and readily alkylated. 

The synthetic route represents a classical ladder polymer synthesis a suitably substituted, open-chain precursor polymer is cyclized to a band structure in a polymer-analogous fashion. The first step here, formation of the polymeric, open-chain precursor structure, is AA-type coupling of a 2,5-dibromo-1,4-dibenzoyl-benzene derivative, by a Yamamoto-type aryl-aryl coupling. The reagent employed for dehalogenation, the nickel(0)/l,5-cyclooctadiene complex (Ni(COD)2), was used in stoichiometric amounts with co-reagents (2,2 -bipyridine and 1,5-cyclooctadiene), in dimethylacetamide or dimethylformamide as solvent. 

A poly(L-lysine) dendrimer 23 which carries 16 free-base porphyrins in one hemisphere and 16 Zn porphyrins in the other has been synthesized and studied in dimethylformamide solution [54]. In such a dendrimer, energy transfer from the Zn porphyrins to the free-base units can occur with 43% efficiency. When the 32 free base and zinc porphyrins were placed in a scrambled fashion, the efficiency of energy transfer was estimated to be 83% [55]. Very efficient (98%) energy transfer from Zn to free-base porphyrins was also observed in a rigid, snowflake-shaped structure in which three Zn porphyrin units alternate with three free-base porphyrin units [56]. 

We also investigated reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin with an excess of Ar,Ar-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMFDMA) which afforded the corresponding 3-(dimethylaminomethylene)-chromane-2,4-dione derivative 72. The structure was again confirmed by IR, NMR, and MS analyses. 

The sulfonylated and acylated PPO presents solubility characteristics which are completely different from those of the parent PPO. Table V presents the solubility of some modified structures compared to those of unmodified PPO. It is very important to note that, after sulfonylation, most of the polymers become soluble in dipolar aprotic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N— dimethylformamide (DMF) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC). At the same time it is interesting to mention that, while PPO crystallizes from methylene chloride solution, all the sulfonylated polymers do not crystallize and form indefinitely stable solutions in methylene chloride. Only some of the acetylated polymers become soluble in DMF and DMAC, and none are soluble in DMSO. The polymers acetylated with aliphatic acid chlorides such as propionyl chloride are also soluble in acetone. 

On the other hand, since the angular derivative 19, whose constitution is characterized by two quasi-isolated hydroxynaphthalenecarboxylic acid subunits and whose structural analogy to a pair of scissors is removed for the most part, also yields an inclusion compound with dimethylformamide with strict stoichiometry of 1 237), and only and exclusively this one (Table 3), it is obvious that the free salicylic acid unit might be the decisive factor for the preferred binding of dimethylformamide of this class of compounds. 

Though molecules l and 7 are closely connected in structure, they have totally different host properties, i.e. 1 readily forms inclusion compounds with a wide variety of guests (see Sect. 3.2.2) while 7 does not. For example, crystals of the pure host could be obtained from dimethylformamide, a solvent which is tightly held by /. Reasons for the different behavior of 1 and 7 have already been mentioned when the crystal structure of the free host 7 was discussed (Sect. 4.1). However, the ability of 7 to form a crystalline associate is increased, if a solvent with the property of a base is present, e.g. pyridine and substituted derivatives of pyridine (see Table 14)80). 

The multifunctionalised thicno[2,3-7]thiophene 86 reacts with ethyl cyanoacetate, potassium carbonate, and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) in dimethylformamide (DMF) at 70 °C to give the thienothienopyridine 87. Presumably, this reaction proceeds as shown in Scheme 25, although the published structure 88 for the final cyclisation product may not represent the major tautomer <2003PS(178) 1115>. 

The affinity of cyanide groups for lanthanide ions has motivated the use of [M(CN)6]3 tectons (with M = Cr3+, Mn3+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Co3+) that can give rise to a wide variety of one-dimensional cyanide-bridged structures ((E) topologic mode in Scheme 4.2) [90]. Some noticeable compounds are [Ln(DMF)4(H20)2Mn(CN)6]-H20 K chains (DMF, dimethylformamide), where antiferromagnetic coupling was observed between Mn3+ tecton and Sm3+, Tb3+,... 

More recently, Somfai and coworkers have reported on the efficient coupling of a set of carboxylic acids suitable as potential scaffolds for peptide synthesis to a polymer-bound hydrazide linker [24]. Indole-like scaffolds were selected for this small library synthesis as these structures are found in numerous natural products showing interesting activities. The best results were obtained using 2-(7-aza-l H-benzo-triazol-l-yl)-l,l,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluoride (HATU) and N,N-diisopropyl-ethylamine (DIEA) in N,N-dimethylformamide as a solvent. Heating the reaction mixtures at 180 °C for 10 min furnished the desired products in high yields (Scheme 7.4). In this application, no Fmoc protection of the indole nitrogen is required. 

Amphiphilic resin supported ruthenium(II) complexes similar to those displayed in structure 1 were employed as recyclable catalysts for dimethylformamide production from supercritical C02 itself [96]. Tertiary phosphines were attached to crosslinked polystyrene-poly(ethyleneglycol) graft copolymers (PS-PEG resin) with amino groups to form an immobilized chelating phosphine. In this case recycling was not particularly effective as catalytic activity declined with each subsequent cycle, probably due to oxidation of the phosphines and metal leaching.
