Lewis Acid Activation and Catalysis of Dialkylaminyl Radical Reactions

Lewis acid activation and catalysis of dialkylaminyl radical reactions is demonstrated both qualitatively and quantitatively. Cyclization of the N-butyl-4-pentenaminyl radical (1) in the presence of a wide range of Lewis acids was shown to be efficient with good to excellent yields of cyclic products obtained in reactions conducted even at -78°C. Rate constants for fragmentation of the N-ethyl-2,2-diphenylethylaminyl radical (6), 6-exo cyclization of the N-methyl-6,6-diphenyl-5-hexenaminyl radical (7), and 5-exo cyclization of the N-methyl-5,5-diphenyl-4-pentenaminyl radical (8) in the presence of the Lewis acids LiBF4, MgBr2, and BF3 were measured by laser flash photolysis (LFP) methods. The LFP studies demonstrated saturation kinetic behavior with respect to the Lewis acids. Equilibrium binding constants for the Lewis acids with the dialkylaminyl radicals and rate constants for reactions of the Lewis acid complexed dialkylaminyl radicals were obtained from nonlinear regression analysis of the observed rate constants.

Electronic Structure and Gas-Phase Thermolysis of 2-Tetrazenes with Acyclic or Cyclic Amino Groups Studied by Photoelectron Spectroscopy

The electronic structures and the gas-phase thermolysis of the 2-tetrazenes 2-13 have been studied by He(I) photoelectron spectroscopy.The compounds are characterized by at least three ionization potentials with energies less than 10 eV which are assigned to the molecular orbitals ?3 (HOMO), n(+), ?2, and n(-).In the thermolyses either the formal disproportionation products (amine and imine) of the respective aminyl radical are found, or the latter is stabilized by loss of an alkyl radical affording also an imine.Further products which can be explained by radical reactions are detected in flash vacuum pyrolyses.The tricyclic cis-2-tetrazene 13 is cleaved by cycloreversion.The methoxymethylsubstituted compound 8 exhibit a more complex cleavage pattern. - Key Words: Electronic structure / PE spectroscopy / Thermolysis, gas-phase / Imines / Radicals
