They are classified as two structurally different trithiaazapentalene compounds that have different contributions of monocyclic 1,2-dithiole and 1,2,4-dithiazole structures and degrees of aromaticity of the bicyclic trithiaazapentalene system. The electron-donating ability of substituents at the C(5) position of the trithiaazapentalene system is recognized as the main cause for changes in pi-Celectron distribution. This is the first complete study of substituent effects on the structure of trithiapentalenes. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A1 - Kleinpeter, Erich A1 - Markovic, Rade T1 - Regioselective synthesis of 1,3-thiazines by sequential 4-oxothiazolidine to 1,2-dithiole to 1,3-thiazine transformations : role of intramolecular non-bonded S...O interactions N2 - A new synthetic approach to 2,3-dihydro-4H-1,3-thiazine derivatives based upon reductive rearrangement of 1,2- dithiole-3-ylidene thiones has been developed. In turn, the 1,2-dithiole derivatives were prepared by an efficient ring- opening-closing process of 2-alkylidene-4-oxothiazolidines, induced in the presence of Lawesson's reagent by intramolecular non-bonded 1,5-type S...O interactions in the 4-oxothiazolidine precursors.

T1 - Quantification of the push–pull effect in 2-alkylidene-4-oxothiazolidines by using NMR spectral data and barriers to rotation around the C=C bond N2 - Information about the strength of donor–acceptor interactions in push–pull alkenes is valuable, as this so-called “push–pull effect” influences their chemical reactivity and dynamic behaviour. In this paper, we discuss the applicability of NMR spectral data and barriers to rotation around the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C double bond to quantify the push–pull effect in biologically important 2-alkylidene-4-oxothiazolidines. While olefinic proton chemical shifts and differences in 13C NMR chemical shifts of the two carbons constituting the C[double bond, length as m-dash]C double bond fail to give the correct trend in the electron withdrawing ability of the substituents attached to the exocyclic carbon of the double bond, barriers to rotation prove to be a reliable quantity in providing information about the extent of donor–acceptor interactions in the push–pull systems studied. In particular all relevant kinetic data, that is the Arrhenius parameters (apparent activation energy Ea and frequency factor A) and activation parameters (ΔS‡, ΔH‡ and ΔG‡), were determined from the data of the experimentally studied configurational isomerization of (E)-9a. These results were compared to previously published related data for other two compounds, (Z)-1b and (2E,5Z)-7, showing that experimentally determined ΔG‡ values are a good indicator of the strength of push–pull character. Theoretical calculations of the rotational barriers of eight selected derivatives excellently correlate with the calculated C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond lengths and corroborate the applicability of ΔG‡ for estimation of the strength of the push–pull effect in these and related systems.

In this paper, we discuss the applicability of NMR spectral data and barriers to rotation around the CQC double bond to quantify the push-pull effect in biologically important 2-alkylidene-4-oxothiazolidines. While olefinic proton chemical shifts and differences in C-13 NMR chemical shifts of the two carbons constituting the CQC double bond fail to give the correct trend in the electron withdrawing ability of the substituents attached to the exocyclic carbon of the double bond, barriers to rotation prove to be a reliable quantity in providing information about the extent of donor-acceptor interactions in the push-pull systems studied. In particular all relevant kinetic data, that is the Arrhenius parameters ( apparent activation energy Ea and frequency factor A) and activation parameters ( Delta S-double dagger, Delta H-double dagger and Delta G(double dagger)), were determined from the data of the experimentally studied configurational isomerization of ( E)-9a. These results were compared to previously published related data for other two compounds, ( Z)-1b and ( 2E, 5Z)-7, showing that experimentally determined Delta G(double dagger) values are a good indicator of the strength of push-pull character. Theoretical calculations of the rotational barriers of eight selected derivatives excellently correlate with the calculated CQC bond lengths and corroborate the applicability of Delta G(double dagger) for estimation of the strength of the push-pull effect in these and related systems.
