Out-Basicity of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene: The experimental and theoretical challenge featured image

Out-Basicity of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene: The experimental and theoretical challenge

A possibility of non-conventional two-step protonation of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene (proton sponge) is discussed. Unlike the generally accepted mechanism, involving …

H-Bond-Assisted Intramolecular Nucleophilic Displacement of the 1-NMe2 Group in 1,8-Bis(dimethylamino)naphthalenes as a Route to Multinuclear Heterocyclic Compounds and Strained Naphthalene Derivatives featured image

H-Bond-Assisted Intramolecular Nucleophilic Displacement of the 1-NMe2 Group in 1,8-Bis(dimethylamino)naphthalenes as a Route to Multinuclear Heterocyclic Compounds and Strained Naphthalene Derivatives

It has been shown that azomethines, hydrazones, and oximes derived from 2(7)-carbonyl derivatives of 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene can undergo acid-catalyzed heterocyclization …
