Chiral ruthenium-SDPs/diamine complexes-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of α-alkyl arylacetones via dynamic kinetic resolution

The asymmetric hydrogenation of the conformationally flexible racemic α-substituted acyclic dialkyl ketones via dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) has been developed by using Ru-SDPs/diamine catalysts. Chiral alcohols were produced in high yields with good to excellent enantioselectivities (85%–97% ee) and diastereoselectivities (up to 97:3). This hydrogenation reaction provided a new approach to the synthesis of the key intermediate of J-104118.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [1,2,4]-Triazolo-annulated 3-Aza-A-homocholestane Derivative: A Novel Pentaheterocyclic Ring System

Abstract  

A novel pentaheterocyclic ring system derived from (5α)-cholestan-3-one, i.e. [1R-[1α(R*),3aβ,3bα,5aβ,12aα,12bβ,14aα]]-1-(1,5-dimethylhexyl)-1,2,3,3a,3b,4,5,11,12,12a,12b,13,14,14a-tetradecahydro-8,12a,14a-trimethyl-9-(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)-cyclopenta[5,6]naphtho[2,1-d][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]azepinium hexachloroantimonate (6) has been synthesized via the reverse-electron-demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the 1-aza-2-azoniaallene cation 4 to the triple bond of acetonitrile followed by ring enlargement. The structure of 6 was determined by NMR, IR and high-resolution mass spectra, and unequivocally confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis. The title compound crystallizes in monoclinic class under the space group P2-1 with a = 8.163(3) ?, b = 11.214(4) ?, c = 24.191(9) ?, α = 90°, β = 97.740(5)°, and γ = 90°. The five-membered triazole ring is essentially planar and aromatic, while the seven-membered azepine ring is not planar, but adopts a chair-like conformation.

Abstract  

A new Ag(I) complex Ag(HL)₂(NO₃) 1 has been synthesized with 3,5-diphenylpyrazole (HL) and characterized by IR spectrum, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. The crystallographic data for the complex 1: triclinic P[`\text1] P{\bar{\text{1}}} , a = 10.4369(17) ?, b = 10.4837(18) ?, c = 12.963(2) ?, α = 69.318(2)°, β = 86.733(3)°, γ = 88.263(2)°, V = 1324.7(4) ?³, Z = 2, Dc = 1.530 Mg m⁻³, F(000) = 620, μ = 0.803 mm⁻¹, R ₁ = 0.0251, wR ₂ = 0.0638. Ag(I) atom is bound to two nitrogen atoms from two ligands. In solid state there are π···π interactions and C–H···π interactions between adjacent units to generate 2D supramolecular structure. The title complex shows strong luminescent emission at 389 and 467 nm in solid state at room temperature.

Representation for the Lagrangian numerical differentiation formula involving elementary symmetric functions

By using elementary symmetric functions, this paper presents an explicit representation for the Lagrangian numerical differentiation formula as well as the error estimate for local approximation. And we also point out that the numerical differentiation formula constructed by Li [J.P. Li, General explicit difference formulas for numerical differentiation, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 183 (2005) 29-52] is actually a special case of the Lagrangian numerical differentiation formula to approximate the values of the derivatives at the nodes.     

Incomplete Gröbner basis as a preconditioner for polynomial systems

Precondition plays a critical role in the numerical methods for large and sparse linear systems. It is also true for nonlinear algebraic systems. In this paper incomplete Gröbner basis (IGB) is proposed as a preconditioner of homotopy methods for polynomial systems of equations, which transforms a deficient system into a system with the same finite solutions, but smaller degree. The reduced system can thus be solved faster. Numerical results show the efficiency of the preconditioner.     

Error-correcting pooling designs associated with some distance-regular graphs

Motivated by the pooling designs over the incidence matrices of matchings with various sizes of the complete graph K_2n considered by Ngo and Du [Ngo and Du, Discrete Math. 243 (2003) 167–170], two families of pooling designs over the incidence matrices oft-cliques (resp. strongly t-cliques) with various sizes of the Johnson graph J(n,t) (resp. the Grassmann graph J_q(n,t)) are considered. Their performances as pooling designs are better than those given by Ngo and Du. Moreover, pooling designs associated with other special distance-regular graphs are also considered.
