The reaction of 2,4-dichloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine with 1H-pyrazole gave two structural isomers in a 1:1 ratio that were separable by chromatography. The title compound, C8H4ClF3N4, was the first product to elute and was characterized in the present study to confirm that substitution by the pyrazolyl group had occurred at position 4. The molecule (with the exception of the F atoms) is essentially planar, with a mean deviation of 0.034 Å from the least-squares plane through all non-H and non-F atoms. The bond angles in the pyrimidine ring show a pronounced alternating pattern with three angles, including those at the two N atoms being narrower, and the remaining three wider than 120°.

The title compound, C9H7ClN2O2, was prepared by reaction of methyl 4-chloro-3-(prop-1-ynyl)picolinate with hydroxylamine in MeOH/KOH solution. The two essentially planar molecules which make up the asymmetric unit have almost identical geometries and and are linked into dimeric aggregates via pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds. These aggregates have almost perfect inversion symmetry; however, quite unusually, the inversion center of the dimer does not coincide with the crystallographic inversion center.

The reaction of 3-amino-5-bromopyridine with N-iodosuccinimide in the presence of acetic acid produces the title compound, C5H4BrIN, with an iodo substituent in position 2 of the pyridine ring. The crystal structure features rather weak intermolecular N—H...N hydrogen bonds linking the molecules into chains along the z axis of the crystal.

The reaction of [1.1.1]propellane with di-tert-butyl azodicarboxylate and phenylsilane in the presence of Mn(dpm)3to give di-tert-butyl 1-(bicyclo[1.1.1]pentan-1-yl)hydrazine-1,2-dicarboxylate is described. Subsequent deprotection gives 1-bicyclo[1.1.1]pentylhydrazine followed by reduction to give 1-bicyclo[1.1.1]pentylamine. The reported route marks a significant improvement over the previous syntheses of 1-bicyclo[1.1.1]pentylamine in terms of scalability, yield, safety, and cost. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
