Syntheses of Two Chiral Clusters [η5—C5H4C（NR）CH3]—RuNiM（CO）5（μ3—S）（R=NH—C6H3—2,4—（NO2）2,M=Mo,3;M=W,4）and the Single—crystal Structure of Cluster 3

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of chiral clusters containing four different atoms at the vertexes of the tetrahedron has been extensively studied because the chiral cluster can induce an asymmetric catalysis potentially[1]. Until now, many tetrahedron-type chiral clusters have been reported, but only a few of the reactions about the organic group in these clusters were investi- gated[2～4]. In this paper, we described the syntheses of clusters 3 and 4, and the structure of the former. 2 …     

Preparation and Crystal Structure of Hetero—metal Clusters[η^5—C5H4C（O）CH2CH2C（O）OCH3]FeCoM（μ3—S）（CO）8（M=Mo or W）

1 INTRODUCTIONTransition metal clusters have been attracting intensive attention largely because they are suggested as active catalysts in a variety of homogeneous catalyzed reactions. However, no unequivocal proof exists that metal clusters themselves serve as the true catalysts among the catalytic process. In many cases it is known that fragments of the original clusters are the actual catalytic species. The unambiguous proof would be the use of a rigid chiral cluster to catalyze an asy…     

Enantioseparation of Novel Chiral Tetrahedral Clusters on an Amylosoe Tris-（3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate） Chiral Stationary Phase by Normal Phase HPLC

Amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) (ADMPC) coated on a kind of small particle silica gel was prepared. On this ADMPC chiral stationary phase (CSP), the direct enantiomeric separation of six novel chiral transition metal tetrahedral clusters has firstly been achieved using n-hexane as the mobile phase containing various alcohols as modifiers. The effect of mobile phase modifiers and the structural variation of the solutes on their retention factors (k‘) and resolutions (Rs) were investigated. The result suggests that not only the structure and concentration of alcohol in mobile phase, but also the structural differences in racemates can have a pronounced effect on enantiomeric separation. ADMPC-CSP is a suitable CSP for the optical resolution of chiral tetrahedral cluster by HPLC.     

Syntheses and Anti—inflammatory Actiobn of （η—C5H5）2Ti （Cin）2 and （η—C5H5）2Ti（Tzea）2

Two new Complexes(Cp)2Ti(Cin)2and (CP2)Ti(Tzea)2(CP=Cyclopentadienyl η^5-C5H5)have been synthesized in THF by the reaction of HCin(Cincofen,2-phenylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid)or HTzea(5-phenyltetrazolyl-2-ethanoic acid)with(Cp)2TiCl2,and characterized by elemental analyses,IR,1H NMR and 13C NMR,UV spectra,molar conductivity,TGDTA.In the complexes the carboxyl groups are coordinated to Ti(IV)in a monodentate manner,The inhibitory actions of the complexes on mice ear tumefaction caused by croton oil and the rat foot granulation growth produced by cotton wool are higher than those of the corresponding ligands HCin,HTzea and [(Cp)2TiCl2],while their toxicities are lower than those of the free ligands.ηη

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Mononuclear Mn~(II) Picolilato Complex Mn(2-C_5H_4NCOO)_2(H_2O)_2.1/2CH_3CN

1 INTRODUCTION Manganese has been implicated as an essential part of the active center in various manganese enzymes. Various nuclearities have been observed from mononuclear atom in superoxide dismutase [1] to the tetranuclear atom of oxygen evolution in photosystem II[2]. The manganese active centers in biological systems are surrounded by O and N coordination sphere[3, 4]. Synthetic efforts have produced a great variety of Mn clusters with varying nuclearity and oxidation states. Si…

1 INTRODUCTION Transition metal complexes of N-R-isonitroso- b-ketoimine have received considerable interest, because the isonitroso (oximo) group can coordinate to metal atoms through its oxygen and/or nitrogen atoms to form several geometrical isomers[1～4]. Some palladium(Ⅱ) complexes with N-R-isonitro- soacetylacetoneimine (abbreviated to R-Hiai)[4] and N-R-isonitrosoethylacetoacetate (abbreviated to R- Hieai)[5] have been reported. Here we will report the structure of a palladi…     

Attempt to Resolute Chiral Clusters by Optically Active Hydrazide

Due to the framework chirality optically active clusters can provide the proof that a cluster as a whole, and not one of its fragments, acts as a catalyst, most of the work have been directed to the synthesis of tetrahedron-type chiral clusters1-3. However, there remains another major problem to obtain the pure enantiomers. Although Vahrenkamp had obtained some pioneering results in this area before 19901, only several racemic chiral clusters have been separated into pure enantiomers until now…     

A Novel Ni-capped Silverton-type Complex: H_4{[Ni(H_2O)_3]_2[CeMo_(12)O_(42)]}·13.5H_2O

1 INTRODUCTION Polyoxometalates are metal-oxygen clusters with almost unrivaled versatility, which results from their enormous structural variety, range of sizes, tunable redox properties and fascinating catalytic activi- ties[1~7]. Therein, an important progress in transition metal oxide cluster chemistry has been the study of polyoxoanion-substituted and supported inorganic or organometallic complexes[8, 9]. However, modified polyoxoanions with divalent first-row transition me- tal as c…     

Synthesis and Structure of Zinc 3-Hydroxy-2-mercaptopyridine Complex,Zn(C_5H_4NOS)_2

1 INTRODUCTION The zinc-thiolate complexes have been widely studied due to their comprehensive applications[1～3]. In an attempt to synthesize polynuclear zinc-thiolate complexes, we used a substituted pyridine contain- ing two substituent groups, 3-hydroxy-2-mercapto pyridine, as a potential tridentate ligand to react with Zn(NO3)2 in the MeONa-MeOH solution at room temperature, obtaining a new mononuclear zinc-complex, Zn(C5H4NOS)2. In this case, the pro- totropy under basic cond…

We once reported that the reaction of [PPh4][(h5-C5Me5)WS3] with CuBr in CH3CN afforded a double incomplete-cubane cluster [PPh4]2[(h5-C5Me5)WS3(CuBr)3]2[3], while the analogous reaction of [PPh4][(h5-C5Me5)WS3] with CuBr in CHCl3 gave rise to a 揻our-…     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [MoOS_3Cu_3I(dmpzm)_2]·2(MeCN)_(0.5) (dmpzm=Bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)methane)

1 INTRODUCTION The synthesis of molybdenum-copper-sulfur clus- ters from the preformed clusters with certain nitro- gen donor ligands remains attractive due to their rich chemistry and electro/photonic properties[1~6]. How- ever, the third-order nonlinear optical performances of these Mo/Cu/S clusters have been limited due to their relatively low solubility in common organic solvents[5]. One possible way to tackle this problem is to introduce bulky organic ligands into the cluster framew…
