In this paper, in addition to introducing efficient method for bromohydrin and bromoether preparation, simple, green and efficient method to C-N bond formation from alkene and N,N'-Dibromo-N,N'-1,2-ethanediyl-bis(p-toluenesulfonamide) [BNBTS] in water was investigated. The reaction between alkenes, ${\beta}$-cyclodexterin, and BNBTS took place in water afterward, by making media basic; it will give the corresponding valuable building blocks in good yields (45-79%).

Benzyl arenesulfonate와 피리딘과의 아세톤 용매중에서의 反應速度를 測定하였다. Benzyl arenesulfonate의 離脫基의 치환기효과는 p-MeO基 및 $p-NO_2$기를 除外하고는 Hammett 式에 잘 적용되었으며, 전자끄는기는 반응속도를 증가시켰다. 離脫基의 치환효과는 벤질炭素에 아민이 親核的으로 공격하여 전이상태에서 치환기의 電子끄는 능력이 C-N 結合의 形成과 C-O結合의 쪼개짐에 변화를 주고 있다는 사실로서도 설명이 되어진다. 치환기효과는 benzyl p-bromobenzeneslfonate가 benzyl p-nitrobenzenesulfonate보다 N-C結合이 tight 한 전이상태의 구조를 가지고 있음을 말해주며 이는 結合의 형성과 쪼개짐에 있어 Thornton의 $S_N2$전이상태 구조의 예상과도 잘 符合된다.

We have calculated the ${\pi}$-electron density, atom self-polarizability, and free valence on each atom of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium, N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, and N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium salts using a simple Huckel method in order to discuss their intramolecular photocyclization reaction in a qualitative method. Our calculation qualitatively predicts that photocyclization occurs through forming radicals as a reaction intermediate by breaking a C-Cl bond after photoexcitation into a triplet state via intersystem crossing from an initially excited singlet state. We noticed that this C-Cl bond breaking is aided by ${\pi}$-complex formation between a chlorine atom and the ${\pi}$ -electrons of the neighboring ring in the triplet state and a stronger ${\pi}$-complex bond makes C-Cl bond breaking, i.e., radical formation, much easier. A chlorine atom will form a stronger ${\pi}$ -complex bond to a benzyl ring of N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium than a pyridinium ring of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium because the former can donate its ${\pi}$-electron more easily than the latter. The chlorine at position 15 of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium salt in the excited state also provides its ${\pi}$-electron to the benzyl ring. So this ${\pi}$-electron can increase the bond strength of the $\pi-complex.$ Therefore, the strength of ${\pi}$-complex follows the order of N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, N-(benzyl)-2-chloropyridinium, and N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-pyridinium salts and thus the radical formation rate. This provides us with an intramolecular photocyclization reaction rate of the same order as given above.

Various theoretical studies of σ-bond activation of organic molecules by transition metal complexes arereviewed. In the homolytic σ-bond activation, the d orbital energy level of the central metal is an importantfactor, as well known. At the same time, the electron-withdrawing substituent which stabilizes the sp3 orbitalaccelerates the homolytic σ-bond activation. In the heterolytic C-H σ-bond activation of RH by $MXL_n$, the XHbond formation is an important driving force, where $MRL_n$ and HX are formed as products. The heterolytic σ-bond activation is also understood in terms of the electrophilic attack of the metal center to the substrate.

Electrophilic fluorinating reagents are typically efficient for carbon-fluorine (C-F) bonds formation due to their higher reactivity even under mild condition. Thus, they have been playing an important role to improve C-F bonds formation reactions via direct fluorination reaction with electrophilic fluorinating reagents or transition metal catalysis. Advances on the recent fluorination methods are mainly results of $Selectfluor^{TM}$'s capability on facile fluorination. In this mini-review, we describe synthesis and application of four old yet popular electrophilic fluorinating reagents such as N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide (NFSI), N-fluoropyridinium salts, $Selectfluor^{TM}$, and N-fluorosultam.

Electronic structures and properties of the organometallic precursors [Me2AlNHR]2 (R =Me, iPr, and tBu) have been calculated by the semiempirical (ASED-MO, MNDO, AM1 and PM3) methods. Optimized structures obtained from the MNDO, AM1, and PM3 calculations indicate that the N-C bond lengths are considerably affected by the change of the R groups bonded to nitrogen, but the bond lengths of the Al-N and Al-C bonds are little affected. This result is useful in explaining the experimental results for the elimination of the R groups bonded to nitrogen, and could serve as a guide in designing an optimum precursor for the AlN thin film formation.

A simple correlation between cross interaction constants ${\rho}_{ij}$ and bond lengths in the transition state was obtained ; it has been shown that ${\rho}_{ij}$ corresponds to force constant of activation, which in turn is related to bond length by Badger's rule involving only universal constants. A satisfactory correlation between 4-31G ab initio calculated values of bond length and force constant for C-X streching in the transition state of the methyl transfer reaction, $X^-\;+\;CH_3X\;=\;XCH_3\;+\;X^-$, indicated that Badger's rule can be extended to bonds in the transition state. Independence of ${\rho}_{ij}$ values from the variable charge transmission of reaction centers has been demonstrated with nearly constant, experimentally determined I${\rho}$XYI values, and hence similar degree of bond formation, for various $S_N2$ reactions.

The reaction mechanism between azacyclopropenylidene and epoxypropane has been systematically investigated employing the second-order M${\o}$ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) method to better understand the reactivity of azacyclopropenylidene with four-membered ring compound epoxypropane. Geometry optimization, vibrational analysis, and energy property for the involved stationary points on the potential energy surface have been calculated. It was found that for the first step of this reaction, azacyclopropenylidene can insert into epoxypropane at its C-O or C-C bond to form spiro intermediate IM. It is easier for the azacyclopropenylidene to insert into the C-O bond than the C-C bond. Through the ring-opened step at the C-C bond of azacyclopropenylidene fragment, IM can transfer to product P1, which is named as pathway (1). On the other hand, through the H-transferred step and subsequent ring-opened step at the C-N bond of azacyclopropenylidene fragment, IM can convert to product P2, which is named as pathway (2). From the thermodynamics viewpoint, the P2 characterized by an allene is the dominating product. From the kinetic viewpoint, the pathway (1) of formation to P1 is primary.

MNDO calculations were carried out to determine reactant complexes and transition states of the $S_N2$ reactions of $CH_3X\;+\;Y^-\;{\to}\;CH_3Y\;+\;X^-$ where X = F, Cl, CN and Y = CN, OH, F, Cl. The leaving group ability was found to vary inversely with the activation barrier, which in turn was mainly ascribable to the deformation energies accompanied with bond stretching of C-X bond and inversion of $CH_3$ group. The nucleophilicity was shown to be in the order $Cl^->F^->OH^->CN^-$ but the effect on the activation barrier was relatively small compared with that of the leaving group. The bond breaking and bond formation indices and energy decomposition analysis showed that the TS for the reaction of $CH_3$Cl occurs in the early stage of the reaction coordinate relative to that of $CH_3$F. It has been shown that the potential energy surface (PES) diagrams approach can only accommodate thermodynamic effects but fails to correlate intrinsic kinetic effects on the TS structure.

Nucleophilic addition reactions of benzylamines $(XC_6H_4CH_2NH_2)\;to\;{\beta}$-cyanostilbenes ($YC_6H_4CH=C(CN)C_6H_4$Y’) have been studied in acetonitrile at 30.0 oC. A greater degree of N-$C_{\alpha}$ bond formation (larger ${\beta}_X$) is obtained with a stronger electron-withdrawing substituent in either ${\alpha}-\;(\delta\sigma_Y\;{\gt}\;0)\;or\;{\beta}-ring\;(\delta\sigma_{Y'}\;{\gt}$ 0). A stronger charge development is observed in the TS on $C_{\beta}\;(\rho_{Y'}$= 1.06 for X=Y=H) rather than on $C_{\alpha}\;(\rho_{Y}$ = 0.62 for X=Y’H) indicating the lag in the resonance development into the activating group (CN) on $C_{\beta}$ in the transition state. Similarly, the magnitude of $\rho$$_{XY'}$(−0.72) is greater than $\rho_{XY}$ (−0.66) due to a stronger interaction of the nucleophile with $\beta$-ring than $\alpha$-ring. The positive sign of $\rho_{YY'}$correctly reflects $\pi$ bond cleavage between the two rings in the TS. Relatively large kinetic isotope effects ($k_H/k_D\;{\geq}$ 2.0) involving deuterated nucleophiles ($XC_6H_4CH_2ND_2$) suggest a four-membered cyclic TS in which concurrent N-C$_{\alpha}$ and H(D)-C$_{\beta}$ bond formation occurs.
