Steric effects amines

Equation 4 can be classified as S, , ie, substitution nucleophilic bimolecular (221). The rate of the reaction is influenced by several parameters basicity of the amine, steric effects, reactivity of the alkylating agent, and solvent polarity. The reaction is often carried out in a polar solvent, eg, isopropanol, which may increase the rate of reaction and make handling of the product easier. 

The shade may be varied by choosing amines. For aromatic amines, the steric effect of substituents in the ortho position reduces the conjugation of the anibno group with the anthraquinone moiety, and the result is a hypsochromic shift and brighter shade. Thus Cl Acid Blue 129 (120) has a more reddish and brighter shade than Cl Acid Blue 25 (118). Cycloalkylamines have a similat effect on the shade. Cl Acid Blue 62 [5617-28-7] (125) Cl 62045) is an example. 

Both the equilibria and the enhancement of the coefficients can be improved by additives, of which sodium arsenite is the major one in use, but sodium hypochlorite and small amounts of amines also are effective. Sterically hindered amines as promoters are claimed by Say et al. (Chem. Eng. Prog., 80(10), 72-77 [1984]) to result in 50 percent more capacity than ordinary amine promoters of carbonate solutions. 

Some authors use O] instead of cr as the substituent constant in such correlations.) An example is provided by the aminolysis of phenyl esters in dioxane the substrates RCOOPh were reacted with -butylamine, and the observed first-order rate constants were related to amine concentration by = k2 [amine] kj [amine]. The rate constants kz and k could be correlated by means of Eq. (7-54), the reaction constants being p = +2.14, b = + 1.03 (for A 2) and p = -1-3.03,8 = -1-1.08 (for ks). Thus, the two reactions are about equally sensitive to steric effects, whereas the amine-catalyzed reaction is more susceptible to electronic effects than is the uncatalyzed reaction. 

Hydrolysis of an enamine yields a carbonyl compound and a secondary amine. Only a few rate constants are mentioned in the literature. The rate of hydrolysis of l-(jS-styryl)piperidine and l-(l-hexenyl)piperidine have been determined in 95% ethanol at 20°C 13). The values for the first-order rate constants are 4 x 10 sec and approximately 10 sec , respectively. Apart from steric effects the difference in rate may be interpreted in terms of resonance stabilization by the phenyl group on the vinyl amine structure, thus lowering the nucleophilic reactivity of the /3-carbon atom of that enamine. 

The Bsmoc derivative is formed from the chloroformate or the A -hydroxy-succinimide ester. It is cleaved rapidly by a Michael addition with tris(2-aminoethyl)amine at a rate that leaves Fmoc derivatives intact. More hindered bases, such as A -methylcyclohexylamine or diisopropylamine, do not react with the Bsmoc group, but do cleave the Fmoc group, illustrating the importance of steric effects in additions to Michael acceptors. 

On the theoretical side, study of the dissociation of addition compounds of amines with trimethylborane, boron trifluoride, and borane provide a new quantitative approach to steric strains. These studies quickly removed doubts as to the importance of steric effects in chemical behavior. 

Very significant acceleration in the rate of deprotonation of 2-methylcyclohexanone was observed when triethylamine was included in enolate-forming reactions in toluene. The rate enhancement is attributed to a TS containing LiHMDS dimer and triethylamine. Steric effects in the amine are crucial in selective stabilization of the TS and the extent of acceleration that is observed.18... 

The enamines derived from cyclohexanones are of particular interest. The pyrrolidine enamine is most frequently used for synthetic applications. The enamine mixture formed from pyrrolidine and 2-methylcyclohexanone is predominantly isomer 17.106 A steric effect is responsible for this preference. Conjugation between the nitrogen atom and the tt orbitals of the double bond favors coplanarity of the bonds that are darkened in the structures. In isomer 17 the methyl group adopts a quasi-axial conformation to avoid steric interaction with the amine substituents.107 A serious nonbonded repulsion (A1,3 strain) in 18 destabilizes this isomer. 

Three factors determine the effectiveness of antioxidants in polymers, namely (i) intrinsic molar activity (ii) substantivity in the polymer and (iii) solubility in the polymer. Multifunctional AOs combine multiple functions in one molecule. Sterically hindered amine stabilisers (HAS), such as Chimassorb 944, Tinuvin 622 and Tinuvin 783 are prime examples. 

Thus acid chlorides and anhydrides react readily with ROH and NH3 to yield esters and amides, respectively, while esters react with NH3 or amines to give amides, but the simple reversal of any of these reactions on an amide, though not impossible, is usually pretty difficult. The relative reactivity will also depend on both the electronic and, more particularly, the steric effect of R. A slightly unusual leaving group is eCX3 (e.g. eCI3) in the haloform (158) reaction (cf. p. 297) ... 

A further effect of sterically hindered amines that could contribute to polymer stabilization has been described by Allan / McKellar31i-lft-41. They reported a conversion of a,3 to 3,Y unsaturated ketones in polyolefins and assumed that this played a role in the photooxidation of the polymers. The conversion... 

The earliest structure-activity relationships indicated that the transplatinum geometry is inactive— significantly higher doses must be given before any therapeutic effect is seen. In 1991, it was reported that alteration of amine structure and the introduction of sterically hindered amines produced cytotoxicity similar to that of cisplatin.162 The first examples used planar amines and a variety of tra s-[PtCl2(L)(L )] compounds have been synthesized and evaluated ((21)-(26), Figure 12).163... 

The selectivity in the Heck reaction of allylic alcohol 111 is interesting, and the factors that lead to the observed preference for (3-hydride elimination toward nitrogen in this system are unclear, although a combination of steric effects and stereoelectronic factors (i.e., alignment of C-H and C-Pd bonds, nN a c H interactions) is likely involved. Examination of related examples from the literature (Scheme 4.20) reveals no clear trend. Rawal and Michoud examined substrate 115, which lacks the influence of both the amine and hydroxyl substituents and also seems to favor (3-hydride elimination within the six-membered ring over formation of the exocyclic olefin under standard Heck conditions [18a]. However, under... 

Angelici and Brink (40) have found that in the reactions of amine with trans-M(CO),(PPhMe2)2+ (M = Mn or Re), the rate of carbamoyl formation follows the order, n-butylamine > cyclohexyl-amine >, isopropylamine > sec-butylamine >> tert-butylamine, implying a strong steric effect in carbamoyl formation. A similar order has been observed in the rate of reaction of organic esters with amines to form amides (41). The data in Table III indicate that a steric effect may be operative in the Ru (CO) /NR3-catalyzed WGSR, since with tertiary amines the rate follows the order, NMeQ > MeNC.H > NEt > NBu0, which does not reflect the basicity of these amines.
