Adducts of macrocyclic polyethers (crown ethers) and aminopolyethers1,2 having hydrogen bonds with polar organic molecules, especially with CH-acidic compounds, are described. These can be isolated as solids, and are, as a rule, stoichiometrically consistent. The chemical shift of the 1H NMR signals of the adducts of malononitrile with various crown ethers corresponds to the anionic reactivity of potassium complexes of the crown ethers in the course of nucleophilic substitution reactions.
Die Struktur des Adduktes 2 Malononitril · 18‐Krone‐6 wurde röntgenographisch bestimmt und bis zu einem R‐Faktor von 0.049 verfeinert. Die Verbindung kristallisiert in der Raumgruppe P21/c. Die Malononitrilmoleküle bilden über CH · · · ·O‐Wasserstoffbrücken mit dem Kronenether analog den bicyclischen Aminopolyethern einen dreidimensionalen Hohlraum von ca. 100 pm Durchmesser. Der Kronenether hat wie im KSCN‐Komplex annähernd D3d‐Symmetrie.
Das faszinierende und rätselhafte Violett der neuen Azo‐bisphosphorsäure‐Derivate Y2OPNNPOY2 war Anlaß zur Darstellung und spektroskopischen Charakterisierung von mehr als 60 Azoverbindungen. Für die farbbedingenden langwelligen n → π*‐Übergänge ergaben sich dabei Gesetzmäßigkeiten, die zur Annahme substituentenspezifischer Absorptionsinkremente berechtigen. Orbital‐Modelle lassen den komplexen Zusammenhang zwischen Farbe und Konstitution bei Azoverbindungen qualitativ verstehen. IR‐ und UV‐Daten belegen eine Konjugationssperrwirkung durch Phosphor(+5) der Koordinationszahl vier. Die unerwartet langwellige Absorption des demnach nur aus vier Atomen bestehenden π‐Systems kann eine π*‐d‐Orbitalwechselwirkung erklären. Die beschriebenen Substituenteneffekte haben allgemeine Bedeutung: n→π*‐Übergänge anderer Chromophore werden in gleicher Weise beeinflußt.
In the 1 : 2 host-guest complex formed between 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxacyclo-octadecane (18-crown-6) and benzenesulphonamide, the crown ether adopts nearly the same conformation as the uncomplexed hexaether ; the complex is held together mainly by N-H ---0 hydrogen bonds.THE ability of crown ethers to form host-guest complexes with alkaline earth metal cations and ammonium salts is well known. Preliminary X-ray crystallographic results of Dunitz et aZ.3 shows that 18-crown-6 exists in different W . Germany) conformations in free and complexed forms. X-Ray crystal structure determinations of complexes of crown ethers with CH-4 and OH-acid5 substrates show that the crown ether in these compounds adopts a conformation with D,,-symmetry which is typical of potassium complexes.We report the solid-state structure of the product of reaction of 18-crown-6 with the NH-acid substrate, benzenesulphonamide, which can be obtained by a method similar to that used earlier for other compounds.6 Crystals of the complex are obtained as colourless needles, m.p. 365 K, which gave satisfactory microanalytical data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
