Bis(trifluoroacetyl) peroxide, CF(3)C(O)OOC(O)CF(3)

Pure, highly explosive CF(3)C(O)OOC(O)CF(3) is prepared for the first time by low-temperature reaction between CF(3)C(O)Cl and Na(2)O(2). At room temperature CF(3)C(O)OOC(O)CF(3) is stable for days in the liquid or gaseous state. The melting point is -37.5 degrees C, and the boiling point is extrapolated to 44 degrees C from the vapor pressure curve log p = -1875/T + 8.92 (p/mbar, T/K). Above room temperature the first-order unimolecular decay into C(2)F(6) + CO(2) occurs with an activation energy of 129 kJ mol(-1). CF(3)C(O)OOC(O)CF(3) is a clean source for CF(3) radicals as demonstrated by matrix-isolation experiments. The pure compound is characterized by NMR, vibrational, and UV spectroscopy. The geometric structure is determined by gas electron diffraction and quantum chemical calculations (HF, B3PW91, B3LYP, and MP2 with 6-31G basis sets). The molecule possesses syn-syn conformation (both C=O bonds synperiplanar to the O-O bond) with O-O = 1.426(10) A and dihedral angle phi(C-O-O-C) = 86.5(32) degrees. The density functional calculations reproduce the experimental structure very well.     

Probing adsorption sites of silica-supported platinum with (13)C(16)O + (12)C(16)O and (13)C(18)O + (12)C(16)O mixtures: a comparative fourier transform infrared investigation

A comparative investigation of the adsorption of (13)C(18)O + (12)C(16)O and (13)C(16)O + (12)C(16)O mixtures on silica-supported Pt has been conducted. It is advantageous to use (13)C(18)O + (12)C(16)O mixtures rather than (13)C(16)O + (12)C(16)O to probe the adsorption sites and electronic state of supported Group VIII metals because the vibrational bands of the adsorbed (13)C(18)O and (12)C(16)O isotopic molecules do not overlap. In addition, while an intensity redistribution suppresses the lower-frequency band with adsorbed (13)C(16)O and (12)C(16)O with vibrational frequencies differing by 50 cm(-1), the intensity redistribution is less pronounced with the adsorbed (13)C(18)O and (12)C(16)O in which the frequency difference is 100 cm(-1). Moreover, the small intensity redistribution that does occur between the bands of adsorbed (13)C(18)O and (12)C(16)O still allows the detection of the vibrational band of adsorbed (13)C(18)O at (13)C(18)O gas-phase concentrations as low as 3%. At such low concentrations, the dipole-dipole interaction between adsorbed (13)C(18)O molecules is negligible, and, hence, both the singleton frequency and the dipole-dipole shift for adsorbed CO may be obtained in a single experiment. Two types of strongly bound and one type of weakly bound linear CO-Pt adsorption complexes have been identified and characterized by their singleton frequencies and dipole-dipole coupling shifts. The origin of these CO adsorption modes is discussed.     

Four isomers of c(96) fullerene structurally proven as c(96) cl(22) and c(96) cl(24)

Direct proof of the cage connectivities of four isomers of C(96) , the highest isolable empty fullerene, has been achieved. C(96) fractions, which were isolated from fullerene soot by recycling HPLC, were chlorinated and the resulting single crystals of C(96) Cl(22) and C(96) Cl(24) were studied by X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. D(2) -C(96) (183)Cl(24) (see structure; gray C, green Cl) was obtained in two crystalline modifications.     

Structures and electronic properties of C(56)Cl(8) and C(56)Cl(10) fullerene compounds.

Stimulated by the recent observation of the first C(56)Cl(10) chlorofullerene (Science, 2004, 304, 699), we performed a systematic density functional study of the structures and properties of C(56)Cl(10) and related compounds. The fullerene derivatives C(56)Cl(8) and C(56)Cl(10) based on the parent fullerene C(56)(C(2v):011), rather than those from the most stable C(56) isomer with D(2) symmetry, are predicted to possess the lowest energies, and they are highly aromatic. Further investigations show that the heats of formation of the C(56)Cl(8) and C(56)Cl(10) fullerene derivatives are highly exothermic, that is, -48.59 and -48.89 kcal mol(-1) per Cl(2) (approaching that of C(50)Cl(10)), suggesting that adding eight (or ten) Cl atoms releases much of the strain of pure C(56)(C(2v):011) fullerene and leads to highly stable derivatives. In addition, C(56)Cl(8) and C(56)Cl(10) possess large vertical electron affinities, especially for C(56)Cl(8) with value of 3.20 eV, which is even larger than that (3.04 eV) of C(50)Cl(10), indicating that they are potential good electron acceptors with possible photonic/photovoltaic applications. Finally, the (13)C NMR chemical shifts and infrared spectra of C(56)Cl(8) and C(56)Cl(10) are simulated to facilitate future experimental identification.     

(13)C-(1)H and (13)C-(13)C NMR J-couplings in (13)C-labeled N-acetyl-neuraminic acid: correlations with molecular structure

N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, 2) was prepared enzymatically containing single sites of (13)C-enrichment at C1, C2, and C3. Aqueous solutions of the three (13)C isotopomers were studied by (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy at p(2)H 2 and pH 8 to obtain J(CH) and J(CC) values involving the labeled carbons. Experimental studies were complemented by DFT calculations of the same set of J-couplings in protonated and ionized structural mimics of 2 to determine how well theoretical predictions match the experimental findings in saccharides bearing ionizable functionality. Results show that: (a) (2)J(C2,H3ax/eq) values in 2 depend on anomeric configuration, thus complementing (3)J(C1,H3ax/eq) behavior, (b) J(CH) and J(CC) values involving C2 depend on anomeric configuration, the C1-C2 bond torsion, and solution pH, and (c) long-range (4)J(C2,H7) is sensitive to glycerol side-chain conformation. Intraring J(HH) and most (2)J(CH), (3)J(CH), (2)J(CC), and (3)J(CC) involving C1-C3 of 2 appear largely unaffected by the ionization state of the carboxyl group. In vacuo and solvated DFT calculations of geminal and vicinal J(CH) and J(CC) values are similar and reproduce the experimental data well, but better agreement with experiment was observed for (1)J(C1,C2) in the solvated calculations. The present work provides new information for future treatments of trans-glycoside couplings involving Neu5Ac residues by (a) providing new standard values of intraring J(CC) for coupling pathways that mimic those for trans-glycoside J(CC), (b) identifying potential effects of solution pH on trans-glycoside couplings inferred through the behavior of related intraring couplings, and (c) providing specific guidelines for more reliable DFT predictions of J(CH) and J(CC) values in ionizable saccharides.

Detailed analysis of coupling constants and isotope effects in NMR spectra of isotopomers of (12)C(68) (13)C(2)

A preliminary study of the long-range (i.e. two-bond or longer) (13)C--(13)C coupling constants in natural abundance C(70) shows, consistent with recent theoretical calculations by Peralta et al. that the largest long-range J(CC) values for the polar and equatorial sites are clearly smaller than the largest long-range J(CC) values for the other three sites. The unusually large size of the (2)J(CC) couplings between inequivalent carbons in a nonpolar pentagon in C(70) has no analog among (2)J(CC) data reported for planar aromatic compounds. No long-range J(CC) values appear to have been reported for any curved aromatic compounds. In addition, much more precise (1)J(CC) values were obtained for C(70) than was possible about 15 years ago. Comparing the chemical shifts for each of the five isotopomers of C(70) containing only one (13)C nucleus and the frequencies of the satellites for each of the four isotopomers containing two adjacent and inequivalent (13)C nuclei indicates that replacing (12)C with (13)C shields the adjacent (13)C nucleus by 15 to 23 ppb, consistent with the limited (1)Delta(13)C((13/12)C) isotope effect data available on a few small aromatic molecules. Such measurements become possible with natural abundance C(70) only by using a (13)C cryoprobe and a high-field spectrometer (700 MHz). The additional information that could be obtained from a spectrum obtained under ultrahigh resolution conditions is discussed. Secure identification of the singlets arising from the four (12)C(68) (13)C(2) isotopomers with equivalent adjacent (13)C nuclei is necessary to allow the largest long-range J(CC) values to be precisely determined. The presence of numerous isotopomers containing two or more (13)C nuclei would present a great challenge in interpreting the various signals in a spectrum obtained under ultrahigh resolution conditions.     

Doping gamma-Fe(2)O(3) nanoparticles with Mn(III) suppresses the transition to the alpha-Fe(2)O(3) structure

Here we report on a mixed oxide system, gamma-Fe2O3 nanoparticles doped with Mn(III), where the transition from the cubic to the more stable hexagonal alpha-Fe2O3 structure is suppressed. When amorphous Fe2O3 is heated at 300 degrees C for 3 h, ferrimagnetic gamma-Fe2O3 is observed as the sole product. On the other hand, when the temperature is raised to 500 degrees C, one observes only antiferromagnetic alpha-Fe2O3 as the product. However, upon doping with 8.5 wt % Mn(III), the amorphous nanoparticles crystallized to mainly the gamma-Fe2O3 matrix after heating at 500 degrees C for 3 h, and need to be heated to >650 degrees C for the complete transition to the alpha-Fe2O3 structure to take place.

A first-principles study of (R)- and (S)-PPA Molecules on Cu(111)

The adsorption of (R)- and (S)-2-phenylpropionamide (PPA, C(9)H(11)ON) molecules on a Cu(111) surface has been investigated using the density functional method with supercell models. The adsorption orientations of both (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules on the surface are the same: the phenyl rings are approximately parallel to the Cu(111) surface and positioned in the hollow sites, the amino and methyl groups occupy two-bridge sites, and the carbonyl occupies the top site. After the adsorption, the bond lengths in the two enantiomers are almost unchanged, but the changes for two dihedral angles show differences, especially for (R)-PPA molecule. The first angles between the (N,C9,C7) plane and the (C9,C7,C6) plane are 19.4 and 0.7 degrees for (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules, respectively, and the second angles between the (C8,C7,C6) plane and the (C7,C6,C5) plane are 74.8 and 0.4 degrees for (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules, respectively. The adsorption energies of (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules are calculated to be -34 and -26 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The simulated scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images of (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules on the Cu(111) surface display different features and are coincident with the experimental ones. The interaction between the adsorption molecule and the metal surface is found to be responsible for the discrimination of (R)- and (S)-PPA molecules on the surface.     

Synthesis and characterization of 2,6-Dipp(2)-H(3)C(6)SnSnC(6)H(3)-2,6-Dipp(2) (Dipp = C(6)H(3)-2,6-Pr(i)(2)): a tin analogue of an alkyne

The reaction of Sn(Cl)C(6)H(3)-2,6-Dipp(2) (Dipp = C(6)H(3)-2,6-Pr(i)()(2)) with a stoichiometric amount of potassium in benzene affords 2,6-Pr(i)()(2)-H(3)C(6)SnSnC(6)H(3)-2,6-Pr(i)()(2) (1) as dark blue-green crystals. The compound 1 is a tin analogue of an alkyne. It was characterized by (1)H and (13)C NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, combustion analysis and X-ray crystallography. The structural data show that 1 has a trans-bent, planar C(ipso)SnSnC(ipso) skeleton with a Sn-Sn bond distance of 2.6675(4) A and a Sn-Sn-C angle of 125.24(7) degrees. The Sn-Sn distance, which is ca. 0.15 A shorter than a conventional Sn-Sn single bond, and the trans-bent structure indicate the presence Sn-Sn multiple bond character unlike the related singly bonded ArPbPbAr species.     

Structure and magnetic properties of (meso-tetraphenylporphinato)manganese(III) bis(dithiolato)nickelates

The crystal structures of [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2} [MnTPP = (meso-tetraphenylporphinato)manganese(III)] and [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} have been determined. These salts possess trans-mu-coordination of S = 1/2 {Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2}*- and {Ni[S(2)C(2)(CN)(2)](2)}*- to Mn(III) and form parallel 1-D coordination polymer chains exhibiting nu(CN) at 2210 and 2200 and 2220 and 2212 cm(-1), respectively. The bis(dithiolato) monoanions are planar and bridge two cations with MnN distances of 2.339(16), and 2.394(3) A, respectively, which are comparable to related MnN distances observed for [MnTPP][TCNE].x(solvates). In addition, [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} {H2TP'P = meso-tetrakis[3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)porphyrin] and [MnTP'P(OH2)]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} were prepared. The latter forms isolated paramagnetic ions. The room-temperature values of chiT for 1-D [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2}, [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}, and [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} are 2.55, 3.28, and 2.86 emu K/mol, respectively. Susceptibility (chi) measurements between 2 and 300 K reveal weak antiferromagnetic interactions with theta= -5.9 and -0.2 K for [MnTPP]{Ni[S(2)C(2)H(CN)](2)} and [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}, respectively, and stronger antiferromagnetic coupling of -50 K for [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} from fits of chi(T) to the Curie-Weiss law. The 1-D intrachain coupling, J(intra), of [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2} and [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} was determined from modeling chiT(T) by the Seiden expression (H = -2JSi.Sj) with J/kB = -8.00 K (-5.55 cm(-1); -0.65 meV) for [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2}, J/kB = -3.00 K (-2.08 cm(-1); -0.25 meV) for [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}, and J/kB = -122 K (-85 cm(-1)) for [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}. These observed negative J(intra)/kB values are indicative of antiferromagnetic coupling. These materials order as ferrimagnets at 5.5, 2.3, and 8.0 K, for [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2H(CN)]2}, [MnTPP]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}, and [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2}, respectively, based upon the temperature at which maximum in the 10 Hz chi'(T) data occurs. [MnTP'P]{Ni[S2C2(CN)2]2} has a coercivity of 17,700 Oe and remanent magnetizations of 7250 emu Oe/mol at 2 K and 17 Oe and 850 emu Oe/mol at 5 K; hence, upon cooling it goes from being a soft magnet to being a very hard magnet.     

Tube and cage C(60)H(60): a comparison with C(60)F(60)

Tube C(60)H(60) (5) with fused five-membered rings is more stable than the cage isomer (1) with isolated five-membered rings. Introduction of endo C-H bonds into structure 5 results in further stabilization, but the most stable tube structure with four endo C-H bonds (7) is higher in energy than the most stable cage structure with ten endo C-H bonds (3) by 74.2 kcal/mol. A comprehensive comparison of C(60)H(60) with C(60)F(60) has been made.     

Synthesis, structure, and ligand-based reduction reactivity of trivalent organosamarium benzene chalcogenolate complexes (C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(EPh)(THF) and [(C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(mu-EPh)](2)

To compare the ligand-based reduction chemistry of (EPh)(-) ligands in a metallocene environment to the sterically induced reduction chemistry of the (C(5)Me(5))(-) ligands in (C(5)Me(5))(3)Sm, (C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(EPh) (E = S, Se, Te) complexes were synthesized and treated with substrates reduced by (C(5)Me(5))(3)Sm: cyclooctatetraene; azobenzene; phenazine. Reactions of PhEEPh with (C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(THF)(2) and (C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm produced THF-solvated monometallic complexes, (C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(EPh)(THF), and their unsolvated dimeric analogues, [(C(5)Me(5))(2)Sm(mu-EPh)](2), respectively. Both sets of the paramagnetic benzene chalcogenolate complexes were definitively identified by X-crystallography and form homologous series. Only the (TePh)(-) complexes show reduction reactivity and only upon heating to 65 degrees C.     

Dithiocarboxylate complexes of ruthenium(II) and osmium(II)

The ruthenium(II) complexes [Ru(R)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IPr)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) (R = CH=CHBu(t), CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4, C(C≡CPh)=CHPh) are formed on reaction of IPr·CS(2) with [Ru(R)Cl(CO)(BTD)(PPh(3))(2)] (BTD = 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole) or [Ru(C(C≡CPh)=CHPh)Cl(CO)(PPh(3))(2)] in the presence of ammonium hexafluorophosphate. Similarly, the complexes [Ru(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)(κ(2)-S(2)C·ICy)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) and [Ru(C(C≡CPh)=CHPh)(κ(2)-S(2)C·ICy)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) are formed in the same manner when ICy·CS(2) is employed. The ligand IMes·CS(2) reacts with [Ru(R)Cl(CO)(BTD)(PPh(3))(2)] to form the compounds [Ru(R)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IMes)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) (R = CH=CHBu(t), CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4, C(C≡CPh)=CHPh). Two osmium analogues, [Os(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IMes)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) and [Os(C(C≡CPh)=CHPh)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IMes)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+) were also prepared. When the more bulky diisopropylphenyl derivative IDip·CS(2) is used, an unusual product, [Ru(κ(2)-SC(H)S(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)·IDip)Cl(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+), with a migrated vinyl group, is obtained. Over extended reaction times, [Ru(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)Cl(BTD)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)] also reacts with IMes·CS(2) and NH(4)PF(6) to yield the analogous product [Ru{κ(2)-SC(H)S(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)·IMes}Cl(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+)via the intermediate [Ru(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IMes)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)](+). Structural studies are reported for [Ru(CH=CHC(6)H(4)Me-4)(κ(2)-S(2)C·IPr)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)]PF(6) and [Ru(C(C≡CPh)=CHPh)(κ(2)-S(2)C·ICy)(CO)(PPh(3))(2)]PF(6).

Dinuclear oxidative addition of N-H and S-H bonds at chromium. Reaction of (*)Cr(CO)(3)(C(5)Me(5)) with [o-(HA)C(6)H(4)S-Cr(CO)(3)(C(5)Me(5))] (A = S,NH) yielding [eta(2)-o-(mu-A)C(6)H(4)S-Cr(C(5)Me(5))](2) and H-Cr(CO)(3)(C(5)Me(5))

Reaction of the 17-electron radical (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp* (Cp* = C(5)Me(5)) with 0.5 equiv of 2-aminophenyl disulfide [(o-H(2)NC(6)H(4))(2)S(2)] results in rapid oxidative addition to form the initial product (o-H(2)N)C(6)H(4)S-Cr(CO)(3)Cp*. Addition of a second equivalent of (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp* to this solution results in the formation of H-Cr(CO)(3)Cp* as well as (1)/(2)[[eta(2)-o-(mu-NH)C(6)H(4)S]CrCp*](2). Spectroscopic data show that (o-H(2)N)C(6)H(4)S-Cr(CO)(3)Cp* loses CO to form [eta(2)-(o-H(2)N)C(6)H(4)S]Cr(CO)(2)Cp*. Attack on the N-H bond of the coordinated amine by (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp* provides a reasonable mechanism consistent with the observation that both chelate formation and oxidative addition of the N-H bond are faster under argon than under CO atmosphere. The N-H bonds of uncoordinated aniline do not react with (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp*. Reaction of the 2 mol of (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp* with 1,2-benzene dithiol [1,2-C(6)H(4)(SH)(2)] yields the initial product (o-HS)C(6)H(4)S-Cr(CO)(3)Cp and 1 mol of H-Cr(CO)(3)Cp*. Addition of 1 equiv more of (*)Cr(CO)(3)Cp to this solution also results in the formation of 1 equiv of H-Cr(CO)(3)Cp*, as well as the dimeric product (1)/(2)[[eta(2)-o-(mu-S)C(6)H(4)S]CrCp*](2). This reaction also occurs more rapidly under Ar than under CO, consistent with intramolecular coordination of the second thiol group prior to oxidative addition. The crystal structures of [[eta(2)-o-(mu-NH)C(6)H(4)S]CrCp*](2) and [[eta(2)-o-(mu-S)C(6)H(4)S]CrCp*](2) are reported.     

Synthesis of chromium(0) and molybdenum(0) bis (eta(6)-arene) derivatives and their monoelectronic oxidation to [M(eta(6)-arene)(2)](+) cations

M(eta(6)-arene)(2) species (M = Cr, arene = 1,3,5-Me(3)C(6)H(3); M = Mo, arene = 1,3,5-Me(3)C(6)H(3), 1,3,5-(i)Pr(3)C(6)H(3)), have been prepared by a modified Fischer-Hafner synthesis or by metal vapour techniques. The reaction of Cr(eta(6)-1,3,5-Me(3)C(6)H(3))(2) with the fulvene derivatives pentacarbomethoxycyclopentadiene (pcmcpH), 1-benzoyl-6-hydroxy-6-phenylfulvene (dbcpH), or 1-benzoyl-3-nitro-6-hydroxy-6-phenylfulvene (dbncpH) proceeds with evolution of dihydrogen and formation of the ionic derivatives [Cr(eta(6)-1,3,5-Me(3)C(6)H(3))(2)][E], where E = pcmcp, dbcp, or dbncp. Mo(eta(6)-arene)(2) derivatives (arene = toluene, 1,3,5-Me(3)C(6)H(3), 1,3,5-(i)Pr(3)C(6)H(3)) are oxidized to [Mo(eta(6)-arene)(2)](+) by pcmcpH. The crystal and molecular structures of [M(eta(6)-1,3,5-R(3)C(6)H(3))(2)][pcmcp] (M = Cr, R = Me; M = Mo, R = Me, (i)Pr) have been solved by X-ray single crystal diffraction.     

Discovery of C(60)O(3) isomer having C(3)(nu) symmetry

A hitherto undetected type of C(60)O(3) isomer was found in the reaction solution of C(60) with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid by means of a chromatographic technique using two different columns. Both electronic spectroscopy and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) mass-spectroscopy examinations show its C(3)(nu) symmetry, in which three oxygen atoms are added onto one benzenoid ring of C(60).
