- Addition of secondary amines to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds and nitrites by using microstructured reactors
-
Several additions of amines to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (Michael additions) were performed in a continuous-flow microstructured reactor rig and compared to the respective batch reaction. Dimethylamine/diethylamine/piperidine and acrylic acid ethyl ester/acrylonitrile were employed as two sets of reactants, giving six reactions. Some of these reactions are highly exothermal. Using the traditional batch procedure the olefin must be added quite slowly to the diluted amine to ensure temperature control and safe operation; especially this is necessary for the addition of dimethylamine (40 mass % aqueous solution) to acrylonitrile. Good yields (>85%) are achieved in this way; however, processing time is very long (17-25 h). To reveal the intrinsic kinetic potential and thus to accelerate these reactions, the reactants were mixed in a continuous-flow microstructured reactor rig which allows rapid mixing and efficient removal of the reaction heat. In this way, reaction time was decreased to a few seconds up to about half an hour, which is a change by 2 orders of magnitude. While the yields achieved with the continuous-flow microstructured reactor rig matched those for the batch procedure, the space-time yields for the microflow processing are much higher, in the best case by a factor of about 650.

- Cesium fluoride catalyzed Aza-Michael addition reaction in aqueous media
-
A green approach to the Aza-Michael addition reaction between an amine and α,β-unsaturated compounds has been achieved by conventional as well as non-conventional methods. The reaction is catalyzed by cesium fluoride (CsF) in aqueous media at ambient temperature to afford the product in excellent yield. Ultrasound irradiation has been used as a non-conventional energy source, which reduces the reaction time with improved product yield.

- PREPARATION OF DIAMINE VIA THE PREPARATION OF AMINONITRILE
-
A continuous method (P) for preparing diamine is described. The method includes reacting the corresponding alkene nitrile with the corresponding monoamine in order to form the corresponding aminonitrile. The monoamine can be introduced in molecular excess with respect to the alkene nitrile, wherein the unreacted monoamine is recirculated to the reaction; followed by reducing the aminonitrile produced by hydrogen in the presence of at least one alkali-metal hydroxide, water, and a hydrogenation catalyst; and purifying the diamine.

- Practical preparation of trimethoprim: A classical antibacterial agent
-
An efficient, simple, and mild preparation of the classical antibacterial agent trimethoprim (1) was achieved in 85% overall yield from 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzaldehyde (2). First, the addition of propenenitrile (3) with dimethylamine almost quantitatively afforded 3-dimethylaminopropanenitrile (7). Then, by condensation of 7 with 2 as well as the continuous replacement of 3-dimethylamino group with aniline in situ, the key intermediate 3-anilino-2-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl)propenenitrile (9) was obtained in an excellent yield of 91% with a one-pot procedure. Finally, the cyclization of 9 with guanidine nitrate furnished 1 in yields as good as 95% in the presence of the excessive sodium methoxide. Supplemental materials are available for this article.

- Sulfur and nitrogen mustard carbonate analogues
-
Sulfur and nitrogen half-mustard compounds lose their aggressive properties when the chlorine atom is replaced by a carbonate moiety. The anchimeric effect of the novel mustard carbonate analogues is investigated. The reaction follows first-order kinetics, does not need any base, and occurs with -OH, -NH and acidic -CH nucleophiles. Most of these molecules are unexplored and might provide a novel strategy for the preparation of compounds previously not easily accessible. Copyright

-
Calorimetric titration was used for the first time to measure the thermodynamic characteristics of complexation of zinc(II) tetraphenylporphyrin with mono- and dinitriles. The effect of the electronic structure and the electron density distribution in the molecular ligands on the thermodynamic characteristics was examined. In passing from the benzene to the carbon tetrachloride solvent, both the exothermicity of the reactions under study and the stability of the complexes formed increase.

- Group Transfer Reactions. - Tetracarbonylferrates from Orthoformic Acid Derivatives and Pentacarbonyliron
-
The nucleophilic leaving group X is transferred from orthoformic acid derivatives HC(NR2)X (X= NR2, OR, CN) to Fe(CO)5.No such reactions were observed between 4 and amide acetals (HCX2NR2) or ortho ester derivatives HCX3 (X= OR, SR).The structures of the transition metal-acyl complexes obtained have been determined by IR and NMR spectra.In the case of the reaction of tris(dimethylamino)methane (3a) with 4 the equilibrium between the resulting amidinium-carbamoyltetracarbonylferrate complex 5a and the starting materials was investigated.The equilibrium is shifted completely in favor of the ionic compound 5a.However, 3a could be isolated by extraction of this solution with an apolar solvent.Alkylation of 5a with triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate leads to the tetracarbonyliron-carbene complex 13.Reaction of 5a with acrylonitrile or methyl acrylate by addition of both the nucleophile "NR2-" and the electrophile + and subsequent eliminations gives the β-dimethylamino substitution product 18 and 21, respectively.In contrast 3a induces polymerisation of acrylonitrile.
