Other substituents

Redundant, isomorphic structures have to be eliminated by the computer before it produces a result. The determination of whether structures are isomorphic or not stems from a mathematical operation called permutation the structures are isomorphic if they can be interconverted by permutation (Eq. (6) see Section 2.8.7). The permutation P3 is identical to P2 if a mathematical operation (P ) is applied. This procedure is described in the example using atom 4 of P3 (compare Figure 2-40, third line). In permutation P3 atom 4 takes the place of atom 5 of the reference structure but place 5 in P2. To replace atom 4 in P2 at position 5, both have to be interchanged, which is expressed by writing the number 4 at the position of 5 in P. Applying this to all the other substituents, the result is a new permutation P which is identical to P]. 

A halogen atom directly attached to a benzene ring is usually unreactive, unless it is activated by the nature and position of certain other substituent groups. It has been show n by Ullmann, however, that halogen atoms normally of low reactivity will condense with aromatic amines in the presence of an alkali carbonate (to absorb the hydrogen halide formed) and a trace of copper powder or oxide to act as a catalyst. This reaction, known as the Ullmant Condensation, is frequently used to prepare substituted diphenylamines it is exemplified... 

The unsuhstituted hydrogen atom of the dialkyl hydrogen phosphites can be readily replaced by chlorine, and thence by many other substituents including fluorine. 

Wheland intermediate (see below) as its model for the transition state. In this form it is illustrated by the case mentioned above, that of nitration of the phenyltrimethylammonium ion. For this case the transition state for -nitration is represented by (v) and that for p-substitution by (vi). It is argued that electrostatic repulsions in the former are smaller than in the latter, so that m-nitration is favoured, though it is associated rvith deactivation. Similar descriptions can be given for the gross effects of other substituents upon orientation. 

Other substituents which belong with this group have already been discussed. These include phenol, anisole and compounds related to it ( 5.3.4 the only kinetic data for anisole are for nitration at the encounter rate in sulphuric acid, and with acetyl nitrate in acetic anhydride see 2.5 and 5.3.3, respectively), and acetanilide ( 5.3.4). The cations PhSMe2+, PhSeMe2+, and PhaO+ have also been discussed ( 9.1.2). Amino groups are prevented from showing their character ( — 7 +717) in nitration because conditions enforce reaction through the protonated forms ( 9.1.2). 

It is noteworthy that the compounds which have been shown to undergo extensive acetoxylation or side-chain nitration, viz. those discussed above and hemimellitene and pseudocumene (table 5.4), are all substances which have an alkylated ring position activated towards electrophilic attack by other substituents. 

Cis-olefins or cis./rjns-dienes can be obtained from alkynes in similar reaction sequences. The alkyne is first hydroborated and then treated with alkaline iodine. If the other substituents on boron are alkyl groups, a cis-olefin is formed (G. Zweifel, 1967). If they are cir-alkenyls, a cis, trans-diene results. The reactions are thought to be iodine-assisted migrations of the cis-alkenyl group followed by (rans-deiodoboronation (G. Zweifel, 1968). Trans, trans-dienes are made from haloalkynes and alkynes. These compounds are added one after the other to thexylborane. The alkenyl(l-haloalkenyl)thexylboranes are converted with sodium methoxide into trans, trans-dienes (E. Negishi, 1973). The thexyl group does not migrate. 

The regioselectivity of the reaction appears to be determined by a balance of electronic and steric factors. For acrylate and propiolate esters, the carb-oxylate group is found preferentially at C3 of the carbazole product[6-8]. Interestingly, a 4-methyl substituent seems to reinforce the preference for the EW group to appear at C3 (compare Entries 4 and 5 in Table 16.2). For disubstituted acetylenic dicnophiles, there is a preference for the EW group to be at C2 of the carbazole ring[6]. This is reinforced by additional steric bulk in the other substituent[6,9]. 

Experimental measurements of dipole moments give size but not direction We normally deduce the overall direction by examining the directions of individual bond dipoles With alkenes the basic question concerns the alkyl groups attached to C=C Does an alkyl group donate electrons to or withdraw electrons from a double bond d This question can be approached by comparing the effect of an alkyl group methyl for exam pie with other substituents...

Substituents on both sides of the double bond are considered separately. Additional vinyl carbons are treated as if they were alkyl carbons. The method is applicable to alicyclic alkenes in small rings carbons are counted twice, i.e., from both sides of the double bond where applicable. The constant in the equation is the chemical shift for ethylene. The effect of other substituent groups is tabulated below. 

A still more intricate pattern of potential energy may be expected if the repeat units of the polymer chain carry other substituents, such as the phenyl groups in polystyrene, but these examples establish the general method for quantitatively describing the effects of steric hindrance on rotation. 

Thus, except for electron-withdrawiag or bulky substituents, at least from the standpoiat of reactivity toward polymerization, modification by most other substituents is possible. 

There is a wide variety of dyes unique to the field of hair coloring. Successive N-alkylation of the nitrophenylenediamines has an additive bathochromic effect on the visible absorption to the extent that violet-blue dyes can be formed. Since the simple A/-alkyl derivatives do not have good dyeing properties, patent activity has concentrated on the superior A/-hydroxyalkyl derivatives of nitrophenylenediamines (29,30), some of which have commercial use (31). Other substituents have been used (32). A series of patents also have been issued on substituted water-soluble azo and anthraquinone dyes bearing quaternary ammonium groups (33). 

Applications. Polymers with small alkyl substituents, particularly (13), are ideal candidates for elastomer formulation because of quite low temperature flexibiUty, hydrolytic and chemical stabiUty, and high temperature stabiUty. The abiUty to readily incorporate other substituents (ia addition to methyl), particularly vinyl groups, should provide for conventional cure sites. In light of the biocompatibiUty of polysdoxanes and P—O- and P—N-substituted polyphosphazenes, poly(alkyl/arylphosphazenes) are also likely to be biocompatible polymers. Therefore, biomedical appHcations can also be envisaged for (3). A third potential appHcation is ia the area of soHd-state batteries. The first steps toward ionic conductivity have been observed with polymers (13) and (15) using lithium and silver salts (78). 

As seen in Figure 1, the organo sulfur compounds are methylated at the boiling point (90°C) of dimethyl carbonate, whereas methylation (or alkylation with other alkyl groups) of other functional groups requites higher temperatures. This has resulted in the selective methylation of sulfhydryl groups of compounds that contain other substituents that can be alkylated. The other substituents can then be alkylated at elevated temperatures (63). 

Dyes and Pigments. Several thousand metric tons of metallated or metal coordinated phthalocyanine dyes (10) are sold annually in the United States. The partially oxidized metallated phthalocyanine dyes are good conductors and are called molecular metals (see Semiconductors Phthalocyanine compounds Colorants forplastics). Azo dyes (qv) are also often metallated. The basic unit for a 2,2 -azobisphenol dye is shown as stmcture (11). Sulfonic acid groups are used to provide solubiHty, and a wide variety of other substituents influence color and stabiHty. Such complexes have also found appHcations as analytical indicators, pigments (qv), and paint additives. 

Broadly speaking, nucleophilic substitution may be divided into (a) the direct displacement of hydrogen and (b) the displacement of other substituents. Displacements of type (a) are rare and are typified by the Tschitschibabin reaction. Pyrazine reacts with NaNHa/NHs to yield 2-aminopyrazine, but no yield has been quoted (46USP2394963). Generally, the synthesis of aminopyrazines, aminoquinoxalines and aminophenazines is more readily accomplished by alternative methods, particularly displacement of halogen from the corresponding halo derivatives, which are themselves readily available. 

This reaction may also be used to introduce other substituents into the thiazole ring, and examples are described in Chapter 4.19 and in (69CC818) and (72MI40300). In contrast, this reaction sequence has not been used to prepare selenazole derivatives, these being more readily available by the reactions described in Section 4.03.2.2.2.

Many cellulose derivatives have been prepared of which the esters and ethers are important. In these materials the hydroxyl groups are replaced by other substituent groups. The degree of substitution is the term given to the average number of hydroxyl groups per anhydroglucose unit that have been replaced.
