The reaction of some 5,5-dimethyl-2-thiohydantoin derivatives RNC(Me)2CXNR'CS (X = O, S; R, R' = H, Me) with molecular diiodine has been studied in CH2Cl2 solution by different spectroscopic techniques. The formation constants (K) of the 1:1 molecular adducts and their thermodynamic parameters have been measured by UV-visible spectroscopy. The results allow us to point out the different donor properties of C(2) = S thioketonic sulfur between the two series of compounds (X = O, S) and the influence of N(1) and N(3) methylation on the K's. From the analysis of the v(NH) frequencies, it has been possible to show hydrogen bond interactions between the NH's and the S-bonded iodine; this seems to be an important factor in determining the K values.

Abstract
The reaction of some 5,5-dimethyl-2-thiohydantoin derivatives RNC(Me)2CXNR'CS (X = O, S; R, R' = H, Me) with molecular diiodine has been studied in CH2Cl2 solution by different spectroscopic techniques. The formation constants (K) of the 1:1 molecular adducts and their thermodynamic parameters have been measured by UV-visible spectroscopy. The results allow us to point out the different donor properties of C(2) = S thioketonic sulfur between the two series of compounds (X = O, S) and the influence of N(1) and N(3) methylation on the K's. From the analysis of the v(NH) frequencies, it has been possible to show hydrogen bond interactions between the NH's and the S-bonded iodine; this seems to be an important factor in determining the K values.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
