- First Thermodynamic Dissociation Constants of Barbituric Acid Derivatives in Water at 25 deg C. Part 3. 5,5-Alkylenebarbituric Acid Derivatives. A Comparison with 5,5-Dialkylbarbituric Acids, and with Mono- and Di-carboxylic Acids
-
The synthesis and determination of the first thermodynamic dissociation constants for three 5,5-alkylenebarbituric acid derivatives (II; n=2-4) is described.A pK1 value for a fourth derivative (II; n=5) is also reported.In a previous study the steric effect of the 5-substituents in 5,5-disubstituted barbituric acids, e.g. (I; R1=R2; Me to Et), was found to be acid strengthening.This acid strengthening effect has been attributed to solvent exclusion in the undissociated molecule.In the derivatives (II) steric effects of the 5-substituents are minimized and remain essentially constant.These derivatives all have high pK1 values (8.73-8.88), similar to that, 8.51, of (I; R1=R2=Me).Polar effects of the 5-substituents in the derivatives (II) were small but in keeping with those expected for 5,5-alkylene groups and pK1 values followed the expected inductive order for electron release in derivatives (II) (n=5 > n=4 > n=3 > n=2).Comparison of the pK1 values for the barbituric acid derivatives with those for certain mono- and di-carboxylic acids reveal similarities in substituent effects which are very pronounced in the barbituric acid reaction series, although not as pronounced as in the malonic acid series.
