Reactions with electrophiles Reactions with nucleophiles... 

There are three general reactions of perfluoroepoxid.es pyrolyses (thermal reactions), electrophilic reactions, and by far the most important, reactions with nucleophiles and bases. 

Many other reactions of ethylene oxide are only of laboratory significance. These iaclude nucleophilic additions of amides, alkaU metal organic compounds, and pyridinyl alcohols (93), and electrophilic reactions with orthoformates, acetals, titanium tetrachloride, sulfenyl chlorides, halo-silanes, and dinitrogen tetroxide (94). 

The reactions of NSF3 have been investigated in considerable detail. They can be classified under the following categories (a) reactions with electrophiles (b) addition to the SN triple bond and (c) reactions with nucleophiles. Some examples of these different types of behaviour are discussed below. 

Arenes, on complexdQon with Cr, Fe, Mn, and so forth, acquire strongly electrophilic character, such complexes m reactions with nucleophiles behave as electrophilic tutroarenes. Synthesis of aromatic tutnles via the temporary complexanon of rutroarenes to the catiotuc cyclopentadienyhron moiety, cyarude addition, and oxidative demetalation v/ith DDQ has been reported fEq. 9.43 ... 

We saw in the preceding chapter that the carbon-ha]ogen bond in an alkyl halide is polar and that the carbon atom is electron-poor. Thus, alkyl halides are electrophiles, and much of their chemistry involves polar reactions with nucleophiles and bases. Alkyl halides do one of two things when they react with a nucleophile/base, such as hydroxide ion either they undergo substitution of the X group by the nucleophile, or they undergo elimination of HX to yield an alkene. 

Given their extraordinary reactivity, one might assume that o-QMs offer plentiful applications as electrophiles in synthetic chemistry. However, unlike their more stable /tora-quinone methide (p-QM) cousin, the potential of o-QMs remains largely untapped. The reason resides with the propensity of these species to participate in undesired addition of the closest available nucleophile, which can be solvent or the o-QM itself. Methods for o-QM generation have therefore required a combination of low concentrations and high temperatures to mitigate and reverse undesired pathways and enable the redistribution into thermodynamically preferred and desired products. Hence, the principal uses for o-QMs have been as electrophilic heterodienes either in intramolecular cycloaddition reactions with nucleophilic alkenes under thermodynamic control or in intermolecular reactions under thermodynamic control where a large excess of a reactive nucleophile thwarts unwanted side reactions by its sheer vast presence. 

Although diselenonium-, ditelluronium- and mixed sulfonium-selenonium dications can exhibit either oxidative or electrophilic properties in reactions with nucleophiles, substitution at the onium chalcogen atom is more typical.96 Owing to the increased stability of heavier dichalcogenium-dications, they react only with highly activated substrates such as aniline and tV,A-dimethylaniline, while no reaction is observed with phenol and diphenylamine.113 Reactions of ditelluronium dications with activated aromatics are also not known (Scheme 44).114... 

Forming a metal complex may serve to activate NO toward either nucleophilic or electrophilic attack depending on the nature of the metal complex and its oxidation state. Of particular interest biologically are the reactions with nucleophiles since this may well be a mechanism for thionitrosyl formation (e.g. Eq. (55)) as well as for reductively labiliz-ing metals in insoluble matrices like ferritin. 

As mentioned above, the reactivity of alkoxyallenes is governed by the influence of the ether function, which leads to the expected attack of electrophiles at the central carbon C-2 of the cumulene. However, the alkoxy group also activates the terminal double bond by its hyperconjugative electron-withdrawing effect and makes C-3 accessible for reactions with nucleophiles (Scheme 8.3). This feature is of particular importance for cyclizations leading to a variety of heterocyclic products. The relatively high CH-acidity at C-l of alkoxyallenes allows smooth lithiation and subsequent reaction with a variety of electrophiles. In certain cases, deprotonation at C-3 can also be achieved. 

This section will cover aspects of monohydride terminal surface reactions that were carried out under free-radical conditions. The description will be circumscribed to the reactions with molecular oxygen and monounsaturated compounds. Mechanistic information for these reactions is scarce mainly due to the complexity of the system, and mechanistic schemes are often proposed in analogy with radical chemistry of organosilane molecules. H—Si(lll) has a band gap of about 1.1 eV while the HOMO LUMO gap in (Me3Si)3SiH is within 8-11 eV and, therefore, has very important consequences for the reactions with nucleophilic and electrophilic species where frontier orbital inter-... 

Indeed, compared with the chemical behavior of other classes of compounds the reactivity of Cgg is that of a fairly localized and electron-deficient polyolefin. The electrophilicity per se is especially reflected by the ease of electrochemical and chemical reductions as well as by nucleophilic additions (Scheme 14.1). In reactions with nucleophiles, the initially formed intermediates Nu Cgg" can be stabilized by... 

In either case, these electrophilic intermediates should be capable of reaction with nucleophilic cellular constituents. The interactions of NPy and a-acetoxyNPy with guanosine and polyguanylic acid are currently being investigated.
