Replacement, of aromatic chlorine

Replacement, of aromatic chlorine atoms, by amino groups using ammonia, 40, 97... 

Sodium fluoride does not effect any replacement of aromatic chlorine atoms with fluorine, unless they are activated by substitution of electron-withdrawing groups in the ring. Several examples are reported for heterocyclic compounds. 

The reactions of the six-membered chlorocyclophosphazene were studied with a number of aliphatic diamines (169 175), aromatic diamines (176), aliphatic diols (177-179), aromatic diols (180,181) and compounds containing amino and hydroxyl functional groups (169,170,182). This subject has been reviewed (11,16,20). There are at least five different reaction products that are possible (Fig. 19). Replacement of two chlorine atoms from the same phosphorus atom produces a spirocyclic product. Replacement of two chlorine atoms from two different phosphorus atoms in the same molecule produces an ansa product. Reaction of only one end of the difunctional reagent, resulting in the substitution of only one chlorine atom, leads to an open-chain compound. Intermolecular bridged compounds are formed when the difunc-... 

Replacement of the aromatic hydroxyl groups in isoproterenol by chlorine again causes a marked shift in biologic activity. 

Diuretic activity can be retained in the face of replacement of one of the sulfonamide groups by a carboxylic acid or amide. Reaction of the dichlorobenzoic acid, 174, with chlorsulfonic acid gives the sulfonyl chloride, 175 this is then converted to the amide (176). Reaction of that compound with furfuryl ine leads to nucleophilic aromatic displacement of the highly activated chlorine at the 2 position. There is thus obtained the very potent diuretic furosemide (177). ... 

Replacement, of acetylenic hydrogen atom by bromine, 45, 86 of acyl chlorine atom by fluorine atom using hydrogen fluoride, 46, 3 of amino hydrogen atoms by thio-carbonyl group, 46, 19 of aromatic bromine atom by potassium /-butoxide, 46, 89 of a-chloro atom in ester using azide ion, 46, 47... 

Some reactions of 2,2 -bipyridine /V-oxides have been reported. The l,T-dioxide is nitrated readily to 4,4 -dinitro-2,2 -bipyridine 1,T-dioxide. ° ° °" 2,2 -Bipyridine 1-oxide is also nitrated in the 4 position. The nitro groups in 4,4 -dinitro-2,2 -bipyridine l,T-dioxide are reactive, being replaced by chlorine with concentrated hydrochloric acid," by bromine with acetyl bromide, by hydroxyl with dilute sulfuric acid, and by alkoxy groups with sodium alkoxides. Some of the dialkoxy derivatives are useful catalysts for the oxidation of aromatic compounds. The dinitro dioxide is deoxygenated to 4,4 -dinitro-2,2 -bipyridine with phosphorus trichloride in chloroform, and other substituted l,T-dioxides behave similarly, but with phosphorus trichloride alone, 4,4 -dichloro-2,2 -bipyridine results. The dinitro dioxide is reduced by iron powder in acetic acid to 4,4 -diamino-2,2 -bipyridine, whereas 4,4 -dichloro-2,2 -bipyridine l,T-dioxide is converted to its 4,4 -diamino analogs with amines. Related reactions have been described. ...
