Phenylenediamine arylated

The N,]S -dialkyl-/)-PDAs are manufactured by reductively alkylating -PDA with ketones. Alternatively, these compounds can be prepared from the ketone and -lutroaruline with catalytic hydrogenation. The /V-alkyl-/V-aryl- -PDAs are made by reductively alkylating -nitro-, -nitroso-, or /)-aminodipheny1 amine with ketones. The AijAT-dialkyl- PDAs are made by condensing various anilines with hydroquinone in the presence of an acid catalyst (see Amines-aromatic,phenylenediamines). 

In the 1950s it became recognised that one type of antioxidant also often behaved as an antiozonant. These were the branched alkyl, unsubstituted aryl-/7-phenylenediamines typified by A-isopropyl-A -/ -phenylenediamine (IPPD). The mechanism of their action is still not fully understood but it is to be noted that they are often improved by being used in conjunction with small amounts of hydrocarbon waxes. 

The effect of ozone is complicated in so far as its effect is largely at or near the surface and is of greatest consequence in lightly stressed rubbers. Cracks are formed with an axis perpendicular to the applied stress and the number of cracks increases with the extent of stress. The greatest effect occurs when there are only a few cracks which grow in size without the interference of neighbouring cracks and this may lead to catastrophic failure. Under static conditions of service the use of hydrocarbon waxes which bloom to the surface because of their crystalline nature give some protection but where dynamic conditions are encountered the saturated hydrocarbon waxes are usually used in conjunction with an antiozonant. To date the most effective of these are secondary alkyl-aryl-p-phenylenediamines such as /V-isopropyl-jV-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (IPPD). 

Since this bloom is brittle, it is broken by flexing. Therefore, waxes only protect under static conditions. For serving conditions which involve continuous flexing, /j-phenylenediamines (A, A -alkyl-aryl derivatives) can be added. These chemical antiozonants scavenge the ozone before it reacts with the rubber. A barrier of ozonized products is created which protects both the rubber and antiozonant from further attack. However, p-phenylenediamines are staining compounds. Whenever colour is an important concern, blends of elastomers can be used elastomers loading should be higher than 30 phr to provide sufficient effectiveness. 

Plasticiser/oil in rubber is usually determined by solvent extraction (ISO 1407) and FTIR identification [57] TGA can usually provide good quantifications of plasticiser contents. Antidegradants in rubber compounds may be determined by HS-GC-MS for volatile species (e.g. BHT, IPPD), but usually solvent extraction is required, followed by GC-MS, HPLC, UV or DP-MS analysis. Since cross-linked rubbers are insoluble, more complex extraction procedures must be carried out. The determination of antioxidants in rubbers by means of HPLC and TLC has been reviewed [58], The TLC technique for antidegradants in rubbers is described in ASTM D 3156 and ISO 4645.2 (1984). Direct probe EIMS was also used to analyse antioxidants (hindered phenols and aromatic amines) in rubber extracts [59]. ISO 11089 (1997) deals with the determination of /V-phenyl-/9-naphthylamine and poly-2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (TMDQ) as well as other generic types of antiozonants such as IV-alkyl-AL-phenyl-p-phenylenediamines (e.g. IPPD and 6PPD) and A-aryl-AL-aryl-p-phenylenediamines (e.g. DPPD), by means of HPLC. 

Dehydration (cf., 6, 648). A reagent (1), prepared in situ from (C6H5),PO and Tf20 in the molar ratio 2 1, effects dehydration, usually at 25°, of amides or oximes to nitriles in >90% yield. It also effects condensation of acids and amines to form amides. The reaction of an aryl carboxylic acid with an o-phenylenediamine promoted by 1 provides 2-arylbenzimidazoles in >80% yield (equation I). If the... 

These dyes are invariably monoazo compounds with the reactive system attached to the diazo component, owing to the ready availability of monosulphonated phenylenediamine intermediates. Pyrazolone couplers are most commonly used, as in structure 7.82 (where Z is the reactive grouping), and this is particularly the case for greenish yellow vinylsulphone dyes. Catalytic wet fading by phthalocyanine or triphenodioxazine blues is a characteristic weakness of azopyrazolone yellows (section 3.3.4). Pyridones (7.83), barbituric acid (7.84) and acetoacetarylide (7.85 Ar = aryl) coupling components are also represented in this sector, with the same type of diazo component to carry the reactive function. 

Even more attractive is the prospect of preparing phenazines in a single synthetic operation by sequential inter-Zintramolecular AT-arylation. This would require the transformation of either two o-haloanilines 122 and 135 or of an o-phenylenediamine 82 with an o-dihalobenzene 136. Until recently, not even a single example could be found for this one-step synthesis of heterocycles via double Pd-catalyzed AT-arylation. Numerous experiments conducted in a variety of different combinations of various Pd catalysts, bases, and phosphine ligands in our laboratory failed to realize this novel synthetic principle. 

Benzamides constitute a fourth dass of HDAC inhibitors. One example, MS-275, is a phenylenediamine derivative that exhibits robust HDAC inhibition in patients with advanced myeloid leukemia as well as refractory solid tumors or lymphoma in Phase I studies [72]. MS-275 is currently in Phase II trials. In a recent study aimed at optimizing the benzamide scaffold, several bis-(aryl) type analogs were synthesized and evaluated for their activity against a panel of HDACs [85]. Moradei et al. found that a thienyl substitution para to the free amino group in the phenylenediamine core rendered inhibitors specific for HDACsl, 2 with potency superior to that of MS-275. Isoform-specific inhibitors should aid in dissecting the roles of HDACs in normal cellular fundioning and cancer. 

A variety of methods have been developed for the preparation of substituted benzimidazoles. Of these, one of the most traditional methods involves the condensation of an o-phenylenediamine with carboxylic acid or its derivatives. Subsequently, several improved protocols have been developed for the synthesis of benzimidazoles via the condensation of o-phenylenediamines with aldehydes in the presence of acid catalysts under various reaction conditions. However, many of these methods suffer from certain drawbacks, including longer reaction times, unsatisfactory yields, harsh reaction conditions, expensive reagents, tedious work-up procedures, co-occurrence of several side reactions, and poor selectivity. Bismuth triflate provides a handy alternative to the conventional methods. It catalyzes the reaction of mono- and disubstituted aryl 1,2-diamines with aromatic aldehydes bearing either electron-rich or electron-deficient substituents on the aromatic ring in the presence of Bi(OTf)3 (10 mol%) in water, resulting in the formation of benzimidazole [119] (Fig. 29). Furthermore, the reaction also works well with heteroaromatic aldehydes. 

Benzotriazole and its derivatives are usually obtained by diazotization of o-phenylenediamines as discussed in Section 4.01.8.3 and in CHEC-1 <84CHEC-i(5)722>. Substituted o-phenylenediamines (e.g., 849) similarly give 1-substituted benzotriazoles (850) upon treatment with NaNOz (Equation (87)) <92JHC1519>. 1-Arylbenzotriazoles are alternatively synthesized from the cycloaddition of an aryl azide to benzyne or substituted benzynes, generated from the diazotization of anthranilic acid or its appropriately substituted derivatives (Scheme 169) <86CC399,87JCS(Pl)403, CHEC-i>. 

Alkyl- and l-aryl-2,3-dimethylquinoxalinium perchlorates are synthesized by the condensation of biacetyl with suitably substituted o-phenylenediamines in strong acid. Thus, l-phenyl-2,3-dimethylquin-oxalinium perchlorate (108) was obtained (93% yield).120... 

Benzoylketene dithioacetals reacted with o-phenylenediamine to give 2-aryl-4-thiobenzodiazepines directly, but did not react with mono-N-substituted o-phenylenediamines (80H7 92S1273) (Scheme 38). N-alkyl-o-phenylenediamines reacted with a dimercaptoenone to give a mixture of two isomeric thiones. One of these isomers was treated with sodium hydride followed by 2-chloroethyldiethylamine to provide a 2-(2 -... 

Four main types of antioxidants are commonly used in polypropylene stabilizer systems although many other types of chemical compounds have been suggested. These types include hindered phenolics, thiodi-propionate esters, aryl phosphites, and ultraviolet absorbers such as the hydroxybenzophenones and benzotriazoles. Other chemicals which have been reported include aromatic amines such as p-phenylenediamine, hydrocarbon borates, aminophenols, Zn and other metal dithiocarbamates, thiophosphates, and thiophosphites, mercaptals, chromium salt complexes, tin-sulfur compounds, triazoles, silicone polymers, carbon black, nickel phenolates, thiurams, oxamides, metal stearates, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb salts of benzimidazoles, succinic acid anhydride, and others. The polymeric phenolic phosphites described here are another type.
