3,4,5-Trichloroguaiacol, which is formed during bleaching of chemical pulp and shown to bioaccumulate in fish, has been synthesized. The structure of the compound has been determined by means of X-ray analysis. The values of the 13C nmr chemical shifts and melting point differ from those previously reported. A reaction mechanism is suggested for the formation of 3,4,5- and 4,5,6-trichloroguaiacol.

Tripentaerythritol was converted efficiently into 2′,2′′:6′,6′′:10′,10′′-tri-O-cyclohexylidene-2,2,6,6,10,10-hexakis(hydroxymethyl)-4,8-dioxa-1,11-undecandiol (4) by the toluenesulfonic acid catalysed reaction with cyclohexanone in a mixture of N,N-dimethylformamide and benzene. Reaction of tripentaerythritol with benzaldehyde under similar conditions gave an easily separated mixture of the four possible stereoisomers. Structures of these stereoisomers were assigned based on 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts using trends previously observed for the dibenzylidene acetals of dipentaerythritol, whose structures had been established unambiguously by X-ray crystallography. It was found that reduction of the mixture of benzylidene acetals to 2,6,10-tris(benzyloxymethyl)-4,8-dioxa-1,11-undecanediol could be accomplished using triethylsilane with ethylaluminium dichloride as the Lewis acid after a number of commonly used conditions for this transformation failed.Key words: pentaerythritol, tripentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, acetals, benzylidene acetals, reduction.

The 13C nmr chemical shifts of benzyl 4-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxylate (1), methyl E-3-(3-ethyl-4,5-dimethylpyrrol-2-yl)-2-cyanopropenoate (2), and methyl E-3-(5-(benzyloxy)carbonyl-3-ethyl-4-methylpyrrol-2-yl)-2-cyanopropenoate (3) have been compared to their X-ray crystallographic structures. The 13C nmr chemical shifts were determined by direct comparison of a series of closely related homologs.Crystal data for 1, 2, and 3 are as follows: 1, monoclinic, P21/c, a = 14.934(2), b = 6.674(2), c = 15.269(2) Å, β = 101.96(1)°, Z = 4; 2, monoclinic, P21/n, a = 7.3030(3), b = 13.478(1), c = 12.985(1) Å, β = 97.48(1)°, Z = 4; 3, monoclinic, P21/c, a = 11.157(2), b = 13.109(2), c = 14.068(1) Å, β = 115.47(1)°, Z = 4. The structures were determined with diffractometer data by direct methods, and refined by full-matrix least-squares techniques to R = 0.052, 0.040, 0.038 for 862, 2032, 1483 reflexions, respectively. The molecules are approximately planar, except for deviations of the phenyl rings and of the terminal carbon atoms of the C3-ethyl groups from the molecular planes. The bond lengths in the pyrrole rings differ from those in pyrrole itself, as a result of the presence of the strongly electron-withdrawing sustituents; exocyclic bond lengths also exhibit differences from normal values.The competitive effects of the various electron withdrawing groups have been correlated to change in bond lengths, 13C chemical shifts, and the chemical reactions of the pyrrolic nucleus.

Condensation of salicylaldehyde with enantiopure (R)-(1-aryl-ethyl)amines yields the enantiopure Schiff bases (R)-N-(1-aryl-ethyl)salicylaldimine (HSB*; aryl = phenyl, 2-methoxyphenyl, 3- methoxyphenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl (4), 4-bromophenyl (5), 2-naphthyl). These Schiff bases readily react with dinuclear (acetato)(η4-cycloocta-1,5-diene)rhodium(I), [Rh(μ-O2CMe)(η4-cod)]2, to afford the mononuclear complexes, cyclooctadiene-((R)-N-(1-aryl-ethyl)salicylaldiminato-κ2N,O)- rhodium(I), [Rh(SB∗)(η4-cod)] (SB* = deprotonated chiral Schiff base = salicylaldiminate; aryl = phenyl (7), 2-methoxyphenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, 4-bromophenyl, 2-naphthyl). The complexes have been characterized by IR, UV/vis, 1H/13C NMR and mass spectrometry, optical rotation as well as by single-crystal X-ray structure determination for 4, 5 and 7. The structure of 5 shows C-Br· · ·π contacts. Compound 7 is only the second example of a Rh(η4-cod) complex with a six-membered Rh-N,O-chelate ring

3-Chlorobenzo[b]thiophene-2-carbonyl chloride was synthesised from cinnamic acid and thionyl chloride. The single crystal X-ray structure determination confirmed the earlier proposed structure and the product was further characterised by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectrometry. The X-ray structure determination revealed two sets of symmetry related molecules along the b-axis that are loosely connected by relatively weak CH…π ( 3.626, 3.628 Å) interactions, giving rise to two infinite chains. The packing structure is dominated by Van der Waals forces between these chains. No significant π–π interactions are found in the crystal structure.

The hitherto elusive mono-O-protonated deltic acid C3O3H3+ was prepared by protolysis of di-tert-butoxy deltate in FSO3H-SO2ClF and in FSO3H:SbF5 (Magic Acid; 1:1 molar solution) in SO2ClF as solvent at -78°C and was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The structure and NMR chemical shifts were also calculated by the ab initio/IGLO method. No NMR evidence was found for persistent di-O-protonated deltic acid under these conditions, although a limited equilibrium with the mono-O-protonated species can be involved. Di-, tri-, and tetra-O-protonated deltic acids were also studied by ab initio/IGLO method.Key words: protonated deltic acid, aromaticity, superacids, NMR spectroscopy, ab initio and IGLO calculations.

The reactions of C(NMe2)4 (1) with Mn2(CO)10 or Co2(CO)8 in THF yield[C(NMe2)3][Co(CO)4] (3) and [C(NMe2)3][Mn(CO)5] (4), respectively. The compounds Co(CO)4NMe2 (5) and Mn(CO)5NMe2 (6) could not be found. With CH2Cl2 4 is quantitatively converted into [C(NMe2)3][Mn(CO)4Cl2] (7) as shown by IR and 13C NMR investigations. 3 and 4 were characterized by an X-ray structure determination. 3: Space group Pnma, Z = 4, a = 7.435(2), b = 10.79(2), c = 20.299(5)Å. 4: Space group C2/c, Z = 4, a = 11.378(2), b = 10.165(1), c = 14.533(1) Å; β = 103.37(1)°. The compounds form independent ions with no bonding interactions between cation and anion; the central CN3 unit of the [C(NMe2)3]+ cation in 3 and 4 is disordered.
