The antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic transition in the system Zn1−x CuxCr2S4

The magnetization and paramagnetic susceptibility of the system of compounds Zn_1−x Cu_xCr₂S₄ (0<x⩽1) are investigated at low temperatures. It is shown that as the content of Cu increases the system exhibits a transition from an antiferromagnetic to a ferromagnetic state. Fiz. Tverd.

Efficient synthesis of enynecarbamates and their ring-closing metathesis/[4 + 2] Diels-Alder cycloaddition: synthesis of hexahydroisoquinolines

Enynes 5a-g were prepared in moderate to good yields from 1-(triphenylphosphoranylideneaminoalkyl)benzotriazoles. Ring-closing metathesis of 5a-f afforded functionalized dienes 6a-f, respectively, which were used in a Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction in the synthesis of the corresponding hexahydroisoquinoline derivatives 7a-f.     

Cyclization of alpha-Oxo-oximes to 2-substituted benzoxazoles

Reactions of oximes 9, 17, and 19 with electrophiles 15a-f and 24 in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate or triethylamine give 2-substituted condensed ring oxazoles 10, 16a-c, 18a-d, 20a-c, and 25 in a new general route to these compounds.

Elucidation of the structures of 3-alkylthio-, 3-benzylthio-, 2-arylthio- and 2-heteroarylthio-N1-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N4-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamines by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy

Nucleophilic addition of alkyl- and benzylthiols to benzoquinone diimine (1) gave the corresponding 3-alkylthio- or 3-benzylthio-1,4-phenylenediamines (2-5). However, addition of aryl- or heteroarylthiols to 1 formed 2-arylthio- or 2-heteroarylthio-1,4-phenylenediamines (6-14). The structures of 2-14, obtained in 55-91% yields, were confirmed in CDCl3 or DMSO-d6 solution using 1D (NOE difference, coupled 13C NMR spectra, APT and DEPT) and 2D NMR techniques [DQCOSY, NOESY, HETCOR and heteronuclear multiple bond coherence (HMBC)] that resulted in unambiguous proton and carbon NMR resonance assignments. The substituent-induced 13C NMR chemical shift differences were calculated in 2-14 relative to carbon atoms in the model compound N1-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N4-phenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DMBPPD) (15) (a reduced form of benzoquinone diimine).     

Structural assignment of regioisomeric 3-[2- or 5-anilino-2-(alkylamino)phenyl]propanoic acids, 2H-1,4-benzothiazin-3(4H)-ones and 2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzothiazepin-4(5H)-ones by 1D NOE and gHMBC NMR techniques

The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of compounds 1-11 and 16-22 in CDCl3 and DMSO-d6 solutions allowed structural assignment to regioisomers 1/5 and 2/6 and their regioselective cyclization products 16-18 utilizing one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques (APT, DEPT, NOE difference, COSY, NOESY, HETCOR and gHMQC, gHMBC). Temperature-dependent 1H NMR spectra of 8-anilino-5-(4-methyl-2-pentyl)-2,3-dihydro-1,5-benzothiazepin-4(5H)-one (18) indicated a free energy of activation (deltaG++) of ca 17 kcal mol(-1) for interconversion between rotamers. The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 20 and 22 containing two chiral centers exhibit duplication of several signals, indicating the existence of two diastereomeric forms. The structure of 4 was unambiguously confirmed by x-ray crystallography.
