N,S-Substituted nitrodiene compounds (11a-g, 13, 15) were obtained from 2-nitropentachloro-1,3-butadiene and some amines (morpholine and piperazine derivatives). The compound 4a was crystallized in the triclinic crystal system (space group P-1) with the unit cell parameters a = 6.6525(7) À, b = 10.7906(5) À, c = 10.8339(4) À, a= 72.57(3)°, P = 84.23(4)°, y= 75.81(3)°, V = 719.03(9) À3, Z = 2. The novel compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, UV-VIS, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, NMR (13C or APT) and mass spectros-copy. Keywords: 1,3-Butadiene, thioethers, N,S-substituted nitrodienes, crystal structure. 1. Introduction Due to the SN reactivity patterns, nitro substituted poly-halogeno-1,3-butadienes have proven to be valuable synthetic precursors for the formation of a variety of polyfunctionalized bioactive heterocycles.1-2 The thio-substituted compounds acting as fungicides, herbicides and insecticides are often used in different biological applications.3 It has been reported before that S-, S,S-, S,S,S-, S,O-substituted nitrodienes could be synthesized via the reactions of thiols.4-9 From our previous studies it has been known that treatment of some mono(thio)sub-stituted compounds with some amines (piperazine, morpholine, piperidine etc.) leads to some new N,S-sub-stituted diene compounds.10-11 Moreover, single crystal structures of some N,S-substituted nitrodienes were determined before.12-13 In this study, we have determined the single crystal structure of 4a. Furthermore, piperazine compounds are important substances in clinical chemistry.14-15 As a ligand the 2-mercaptophenol has been shown to be highly versatite, which ligates as well as chelates and bridges to metal atoms in at least eight different coordination modes.16 The goal of this study was to synthesize and characterize new thiosubstituted 1,3-butadiene compounds. 2. Experimental Section 2. 1. General Melting points were measured on a Buchi B-540 melting point apparatus and are uncorrected. Infrared (FT-IR) spectra were recorded using Shimadzu FTIR-8101 spectrometer. The samples were pressed in KBr pellets. Elemental analyses were performed with Carlo Erba 1106 Elemental analyser. UV spectra were recorded with UV-VIS Spectrophotometer TU-1901. 1H and 13C or APT NMR spectra were recorded on Varian UNITY INOVA operating at 500 MHz. Mass spectrum were obtained on a Thermo Advantage MAX LC/MS/MS spectrometer according to APCI or ESI. Crystal structure of 4a was determined on Rigaku R-Axis Rapid-S X-Ray Single Crystal Diffractometer. Products were isolated by column chromatography on silica gel (Fluka Silika gel 60, particle size 63-200 |jm). TLC plales were of silica 60F254 (Merck, Darmstadt), detection with ultraviolet light (254 nm). 2. 2. Synthesis 5,0-Substituted nitrodiene compound 3 was obtained from the reactions of 2-nitropentachloro-1,3-butadiene with 2-mercaptophenol. The reaction of 2-nitropentachloro-1,3-bu- Scheme 1. Synthesis of compounds 3, 4a, 5a,b, 6c, 7a, 7c, 9 tadiene with 2-methyl benzenethiol yielded 4a. The crystal structure of this novel compound was characterized by using X-ray diffraction. Disubstituted nitrodiene compounds 5a,b were obtained from the reactions of 2-nitropentachloro-1,3- butadiene with thiols. Also, the compounds 6c, 7a and 7c were synthesized in the presence of NaOH and EtOH from the reactions of 2-nitropentachloro-1,3-butadiene with thiols. These reactions are showed in Scheme 1. ^^-Substituted diene compounds 11a-g, 13 and 15 were prepared by the reactions of 4a with amines (piperazine, morpholine, etc.) in the presence of dichloromethane. The novel ^^-substituted compounds are showed in Scheme 2. These novel compounds were formed by an additionelimination reaction sequence and all products obtained were found to be stable. The structures of the new nitrodi-ne compounds are in accordance with the analytical and spectroscopic data as given in the experimental part. 2. 3.

X-Ray Crystal Structure Determination All measurements were made on a Rigaku RAXIS RAPID imaging plate area detector with graphite monoc-hromated Mo-Ka radiation X = 0.71073 A. The data were collected at a temperature of 20 °C to a maximum 2e value of 60.2°. Crystallographic data for 4a have been deposited with the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre as supplementary publication no. CCDC-No 821368.17 Yellow crystals of 4a suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis were obtained by slow evaporation of ethanol at room temperature. Structure solution was by direct methods SIR9218 and refinement was by full-matrix least-squares on F using the CRYSTALS19 program package. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined using the riding model. All calculations were performed using the Crystal Structure Crystallographic Software Package.20 The diagram of 4a by using ORTEP III21 program with 30% probability displacement ellipsoide is given in Fig.1. The molecule packing diagram for 4a is shown in Fig. 2 as a proj ection along the b axis. The molecular structure of the title compound is shown in Tabte 1 and setected atom distances and angles of 4a are given in Table 2. 4. Results and Discussion In the IR spectrum of 3 there were no typical absorption bands at about 3200-3400 cm-1 (as a broad peak) and 2550-2560 cm-1 regions corresponding to OH and SH groups, respectively. Moreover, the mass spectrum of 3 showed the protonated molecular ion peak at m/z 326 [M+H]+. Spectroscopic evidence for the compound 3 proved the products to be of cyclyc thioether structure. In the APT-NMR spectrum of 4a, methyl carbon atom signals have appeared at S 19.5 ppm and the protons of methyl group have been observed as a triplet at S 2.43 ppm. The FT-IR spectrum of 5b showed characteristic absorption as a broad peak at 3384 cm-1. In the mass spectrum of 5b a protonated molecular ion peak has been noticed at m/z 507 [M+H]. The protonated molecular ion peak of 6c was observed at m/z 476 in the mass spectrum. In the :H-NMR spectrum of tris thiosubstituted nitrodiene compound 7a was aromatic protons at S 6.82-7.20 ppm were observed as a multiplet. In UV-VIS spectrum of 9 maximum absorption was observed at 255 nm. In the :H-NMR spectrum of compound 9 of the aromatic protons two dublets located at S 7.04-7.06 and 7.17-7.19 ppm were observed. In the 13C-NMR of the compound 11d methoxy group appeared at S 55.72 ppm. The same methoxy group in the 1H-NMR spectrum of 11d was observed at S 3.82 ppm as a singlet. In the 1H-NMR spectrum of the compound 11e CH group proton appeared at S 4.09 ppm as a singlet; accordingly in the 13C-NMR the same group showed a signal at S 74.33 ppm. The FT-IR spectrum of the compound 11g showed a characteristic band at 3344 cm-1. While NH group was observed in the 1H-NMR spectrum of compound 15 as a broad singlet at S 3.35 ppm, the IR band was at 3335 cm-1 supporting the accuracy of the structure 15. Moreover, the molecular ion peak in ESI+ MS for 15 was obtained at m/z 439. The loss of nitro group fragment from the structure of 15 was showed by the mass peak at m/z 393. The novel compounds which were synthesized have been purified with column chromatography and their structures clarified by microanalysis and spectroscopic methods (IR, 1H-NMR, 13C or APT NMR, MS and UV/VIS). In our previous study the monothiosubstituted nitrodiene compound 1,3,4,4-tetrachloro-4-(4-chlorophenyl-sulfanyl)-2-nitrobuta-1,3-diene crystallized in the triclinic crystal system.22 In this study the novel compound 4a also crystallized in the triclinic crystal system (space group P-1) with the unit cell parameters a = 6.6525(7) À, b = 10.7906(5) À , c = 10.8339(4) À , a = 72.57(3)°, 3 = 84.23(4)°, y= 75.81(3)°, V = 719.03(9) À3, Z = 2. The torsion angles and geometric structure of compounds 1,3,4,4-tetrachloro-4-(4-chlorophenylsulfanyl)-2-nitrobuta-1,3-diene22 and the novel compound 4a are similar to each others (in ORTEP III). The crystallographic and structure refinement data for 4a are summarized in Tabte 1. In the butadien sketeton, bond lenght C1-C2 is 1.305(4) À, C2-C3 1.467(3) À and C3-C4 1.356(3) À, Figure 2.

Povzetek Z reakcijo nekaterih tiolov in 2-nitropentakloro-1,3-butadiena smo pripravili različne tiosubstituirane nitrodienske spojine (3, 4a, 5a,b, 6c, 7a, 7c, 9). _V,5-Substituirane nitrodiene (11a-g, 13, 15) smo pripravili iz 2-nitropentakloro-1,3-bu-tadiena z izbranimi amini (morfolin in derivati piperazina). Spojina 4a je kristalizirala v triklinski singoniji (prostorska skupina P-1) s parametri osnovne celice: a = 6.6525(7) A, b = 10.7906(5) k, c = 10.8339(4) k, a = 72.57(3)°, P = 84.23(4)°, Y = 75.81(3)°, V = 719.03(9) A3, Z = 2. Nove spojine smo karakterizirali z elementno analizo, UV-VIS, FT-IR, 1H-NMR, NMR (13C ali APT) in masno spektroskopijo.
