AijAT-dicyclohexylcarhodiimide (DCC) also leads to essentially quantitative conversion of amic acids to isoimides, rather than imides (30,31). Combinations of trifluoroacetic anhydride—triethjlarnine and ethyl chi oroform a te—triethyl amine also result in high yields of isoimides (30). A kinetic study on model compounds has revealed that isoimides and imides are formed via a mixed anhydride intermediate (12) that is formed by the acylation of the carboxylic group of amic acid (8). 

Reactions. Although carbapenems are extremely sensitive to many reaction conditions, a wide variety of chemical modifications have been carried out. Many derivatives of the amino, hydroxy, and carboxy group of thienamycin (2) have been prepared primarily to study stmcture—activity relationships (24). The most interesting class of A/-derivatives are the amidines which are usually obtained in good yield by reaction of thienamycin with an imidate ester at pH 8.3. Introduction of this basic but less nucleophilic moiety maintains or improves the potency of the natural material while greatiy increasing the chemical stabiUty. Thus /V-formimidoyl thienamycin [64221-86-9] (MK 0787) (18), C 2H yN204S, (25) was chosen for clinical evaluation and... 

While there is clear evidence for complex formation between certain electron donor and electron acceptor monomers, the evidence for participation of such complexes in copolymerization is often less compelling. One of the most studied systems is S-.V1 Al I copolymerization/8 75 However, the models have been applied to many copolymerizations of donor-acceptor pairs. Acceptor monomers have substituents such as carboxy, anhydride, ester, amide, imide or nitrile on the double bond. Donor monomers have substituents such as alkyl, vinyl, aryl, ether, sulfide and silane. A partial list of donor and acceptor monomers is provided in Table 7.6.65.-... 

Photolysis of chromium alkoxycarbenes with azoarenes produced 1,2- and 1,3-diazetidinones, along with imidates from formal azo metathesis (Eq. 21) [85, 86]. Elegant mechanistic studies [87-89] indicated the primary photoprocess was trans-to-cis isomerization of the azoarene followed by subsequent thermal reaction with the carbene complex. Because of the low yields and mixtures obtained the process is of little synthetic use. 

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is the most popular method for determining the imidization process in the solid state and identifying specific substituents on the macromolecular backbone (e.g., CN, SO3H, CO, SO2).131 A method for calculating the diermal imidization extent based on FTIR data has been reported by Pride.132 Raman spectroscopy was used on the model study of PMDA-ODA condensation, and the possible formation of an inline bond by reaction of an amino group with an imide carboxyle was evidenced.133... 

In most of the studies discussed above, except for the meta-linked diamines, when the aromatic content (dianhydride and diamine chain extender), of the copolymers were increased above a certain level, the materials became insoluble and infusible 153, i79, lsi) solution to this problem with minimum sacrifice in the thermal properties of the products has been the synthesis of siloxane-amide-imides183). In this approach pyromellitic acid chloride has been utilized instead of PMDA or BTDA and the copolymers were synthesized in two steps. The first step, which involved the formation of (siloxane-amide-amic acid) intermediate was conducted at low temperatures (0-25 °C) in THF/DMAC solution. After purification of this intermediate thin films were cast on stainless steel or glass plates and imidization was obtained in high temperature ovens between 100 and 300 °C following a similar procedure that was discussed for siloxane-imide copolymers. Copolymers obtained showed good solubility in various polar solvents. DSC studies indicated the formation of two-phase morphologies. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the thermal stability of these siloxane-amide-imide systems were comparable to those of siloxane-imide copolymers 183>. 

Power and coworkers prepared the iron(V) bis-imide complex 3,5-Pr2 Ar Fe[N (1-Ad)]2l [42]. This complex has been characterized by X-ray crystallography with the iron in planar three-coordinate geometry. The Fe-N bond distances are 1.642(2) and 1.619(2)A. Magnetic studies of 3,5-Pr2 Ar Fe[N(l-Ad)]2 reveals that this complex has a low-spin cP configuration with S = jl ground state. This compound is notable as it is a stable Fe(V) imide being well characterized. 

Under similar conditions, reaction of imidate 60b with 2-diazopropane performed at 0 °C in dichloromethane, was completed in less than 10 h and gave mainly product 61b. As before, the structure of 61b was determined via a detailed mono- and bidimensional NMR study. 

It is frequently asserted that two weaknesses of STM are first that all atomic asperities in images need not necessarily correspond to atom surface positions and second that it is inherently difficult to establish the identity of imaged atoms when two or more surface species are involved. The latter need not, however, be a problem. In a study (for example) of the oxidation of ammonia at Cu(110) the oxygen and nitrogen adatoms form separate individual structures which run in the < 100 > and < 110 > directions, respectively, whereas under ammonia-rich conditions only imide species are formed, running in the < 110 > direction, with in situ XPS confirming their presence and the absence of surface oxygen (Chapter 5). 

In the early 1990s, FTIR was being evaluated at Merck for the in situ monitoring of reactions. This new technology was expected to provide a powerful means to study a reaction as well as a method for analytical control in production [28]. Both silyl imidate formation and the reaction with DDQ could be conveniently monitored by FTIR, as shown in Figure 3.13. Silyl imidate formation was indicated by the appearance of an absorbance at 1667.5 cm4 with concomitant disappearance of the absorbance corresponding to BSTFA at 1324.0cm-1. A new absorbance... 

The hydrolytic stability of water soluble poly[N-(4-sulfo-phenyDdimethacrylamide] (PSPDM) was studied at 90 C in aqueous solutions at pH 7, pH 1.2 (0.1M HC1), and pH 12.3 (0.1M NaOH). PSPDM, which possesses predominantly 5-mem-bered ring imides, was prepared by the cyclopolymerization and subsequent sulfonation of N-phenyldimethacrylamide. No detectable PSPDM imide hydrolysis occurred after 30 days at pH 7 or pH 1.2. Under basic conditions, however, complete hydrolysis to amic acid occurred after one day. The resulting Nsubstituted amide was extremely stable to further basic hydrolysis.
