Investigation of a family of structurally-related guanidinium ionic liquids through XPS and thermal analysis

Orthoamide und Iminiumsalze, CIII. Synthese von N,N′,N′′-peralkylierten Guanidiniumsalz-basierten ionischen Flüssigkeiten durch Anionenmetathese

N,N′,N′′-peralkylated guanidinium chlorides and N,N′,N′′-peralkylated guanidines were prepared from N,N′-peralkylated chloroformamidinium chlorides. The alkylation of the guanidines affords N,N′,N′′-persubstituted guanidinium chlorides bromides, iodides, alkylsulfates, and tetrafluoroborates. Guanidinium tricyanomethanides and tetracyanopropenides were prepared from the chlorides and iodides by anion metathesis. The reaction of guanidinium halogenides with borontrifluoride etherate, triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate or sodiumtetrafluoroborate delivers guanidinium tetrafluoroborates. Guanidinium saccharinides, cyanates, thiocyanates, trifluoromethansulfonates, bis(trifluormethansulfonyl)imides, hexacyanoferrates(II/III), tetracyanonickolates and tetrathiocyanatocobaltates were prepared from the corresponding guanidinium chlorides and tetrafluoroborates by anion exchange.

The chemistry and biology of guanidine secondary metabolites

Covering: 2017-2019Guanidine natural products isolated from microorganisms, marine invertebrates and terrestrial plants, amphibians and spiders, represented by non-ribosomal peptides, guanidine-bearing polyketides, alkaloids, terpenoids and shikimic acid derived, are the subject of this review. The topics include the discovery of new metabolites, total synthesis of natural guanidine compounds, biological activity and mechanism-of-action, biosynthesis and ecological functions.
