2,7-Di- tert- butylthiepine is a heterocyclic chemical compound . It consists of a thieping skeleton , on the 2- and 7-positions of which tert- butyl radicals are substituted .
Manufacturing
2,7-Di- tert- butylthiepine can be formed by ring expansion from a derivative of 2,6-di- tert- butylthiopyran. The compound used has a leaving group , which enables ring expansion. Acetic anhydride and sodium acetate are used for this reaction .
properties
It is a colorless solid that melts at 36 ° C. The compound is in a trough conformation in which four carbon atoms form a plane. It has a system of eight π electrons and is one of the anti-aromatic compounds. Most thiepines are unstable compounds that decompose to benzene derivatives by splitting off sulfur . 2,7-Di- tert- butylthiepin, however, is significantly more stable than thiepin itself. This is due to the steric hindrance caused by the bulging tert-butyl radicals. In boiling toluene , it has a half-life of 365 hours.
Reactions
2,7-di- tert -butylthiepin can be prepared by the reaction with triphenylphosphine to the synthesis of 1,2-di- tert -butylbenzene be used.
Furthermore, cycloadditions can be carried out, which is due to the antiaromatic character of the thiepin ring.
