System synthesis atomic structure

The synthesis of photochromic 6n conjugate systems having a bis(2,3 -benzothienyl) unit 75 was described (04CC1010) (Scheme 23). These systems have unusual structures, in which the fluorine atom, the methyl group, or the trifluoromethyl group rather than the heterocycle is located in a vicinal position adjacent to the benzothienyl substituent in the per-fluorocyclopentene moiety. 

The technique of low-energy electron diffraction, LEED (Section VIII-2D), has provided a considerable amount of information about the manner in which a chemisorbed layer rearranges itself. Somotjai [13] has summarized LEED results for a number of systems. Some examples are collected in Fig. XVlII-1. Figure XVIII-la shows how N atoms are arranged on a Fe(KX)) surface [14] (relevant to ammonia synthesis) even H atoms may be located, as in Fig. XVIII-Ih [15]. Figure XVIII-Ic illustrates how the structure of the adsorbed layer, or adlayer, can vary wiA exposure [16].f There may be a series of structures, as with NO on Ru(lOTO) [17] and HCl on Cu(llO) [18]. Surface structures of... 

This method of ring closure is the most convenient for the synthesis of ring-fused 1,2,4-triazoles with this arrangement of nitrogen atoms. It has been used extensively to form the analogous [5,6] ring-fused systems, and structural ambiguity is only encountered... 

The oxidation of amines by mercuric acetate is an old reaction (54) which up until recent years was employed primarily to modify alkaloid structures (55). A systemic study of the oxidizing action of mercuric acetate by Leonard and co-workers led to the development of a general method for the synthesis of enamines from cyclic tertiary amines. An observation made after a large number of compounds were oxidized, but which is worth noting at the onset, is that a tertiary hydrogen alpha to the nitrogen atom is removed preferentially to a secondary a-hydrogen. 

According to the Hantzsch-Widman system, the seven-membered unsaturated hcterocyclc with one sulfur atom is named thiepin (1). The three different benzothiepins are assigned by the position of sulfur 1-benzothiepin (2), 2-benzothiepin (3) and 3-benzothiepin (4). Of the four possible dibenzothiepins only dibenzo[6,r/]thiepin (5) and dibenzo[A,/]thiepin (6) are of importance for synthesis, while the other two isomers, which contain unfavorable o-quinoid structures, exist mainly as the stable dihydro compounds, i.c. 5,7-dihydrodibenzo[c,t ]thiepin (7) and 6,1 l-dihydrodibenzo[6,c ]thiepin (8). Benzannulation over all double bonds results in tri-benzo[6,(7,/]thiepin (9).
