Abstract

Optisch aktive Phosphinigsäureamide R¹R²PNR₂ 4 (R¹ [dbnd] Ph, R² [dbnd] Me bzw. Et, R [dbnd] Et) sind durch kathodische Spaltung bzw.Cyanolyse optisch aktiver Amidophosphoniumsalze [R¹R²R³PNR₂]X (R¹ [dbnd] Ph. R² [dbnd] Me bzw. Et. R³ [dbnd] Bz bzw. All, R [dbnd] Et) unter Erhaltung der Konfiguration in hohen Ausbeuten zugänglich.

Optisch aktive Amidophosphoniumverbindungen, z.B. Ethyl-methyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumiodid 10 oder Benzyl-ethyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumbromid 12 werden erhalten:

a) aus den optisch aktiven tertiären Phosphinen, z.B. R-(+)Benzyl-methyl-phenyl-phosphin 6 bzw. S-(-)Ethyl-methyl-phenyl-phosphin 13 durch Umsetzung mit Alkyl- oder Arylaziden über die Phosphinimine 7 mit anschließender Alkylierung.

b) durch Alkylierung der optisch aktiven Phosphinigsäureamide 4. Die unter a) und b) genannten Umsetzungen verlaufen unter Erhaltung der Konfiguration.

c) Bei der Umsetzung optisch aktiver tertiärer Phosphine mit N-Halogenaminen entstehen nur racemische Amidophosphoniumsalze.

Optisch aktive Amidophosphoniumsalze, z.B. S(+)-Benzyl-methyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumbromid 8 oder R-(-)-Ethyl-methyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumiodid 10 werden bei der Einwirkung wäßriger Alkalien unter Inversion zu den entsprechenden Phosphinoxiden 9 bzw. 11 abgebaut. Optisch aktive Amidophosphoniumsalze, z.B. S(+)-Benzyl-ethyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumbromid 12, werden mit LiAlH₄ retentiv unter Abspaltung des Aminliganden in die zugrundeliegenden optisch aktiven tertiären Phosphine übergeführt. Die Olefinierung von Benzaldehyd mit S(+)-Benzyl-ethyl-phenyl-diethylamido-phosphoniumbromid 5 ergibt unter Retention Stilben und optisch aktives Ethyl-phenyl-phosphinsäure-diethylamid 17, das auch durch Oxidation von R(-)-4 mit H₂O₂ erhalten wird. Schwefelung von R(-)-4 liefert das optisch aktive Ethyl-phenyl-thiophosphinsäure-diethylamid 18.

Das optisch aktive Phosphinigsäure-diethylamid 4 racemisiert allein und in Kohlenwasserstoffen gelöst bei 130°C nach einer Reaktion nullter Ordnung. Die Racemisierung wird durch Austausch der sekundären Aminogruppe über cyclische Assoziate verursacht. Beweis: Verbindungen mit unterschiedlichen. Substituenten am Phosphor- und Stickstoff tauschen beim dreistündigen Erhitzen auf 200°C die sekundären Aminogruppen aus. Es entstehen neue Phosphinigsäureamide in annähernd äquivalenten Mengen.

In Nitrobenzol bildet sich mit Phosphinigsäureamiden ein Charge-Transfer-Komplex, der im Falle des optisch aktiven Ethyl-phenyl-phosphinigsäure-diethylamids 4 bereits bei Zimmertemperatur eine schnelle Racemisierung bewirkt.

Optisch aktives Ethyl-phenyl-phosphinigsäure-diethylamid 4 liefert als Co-Katalysator bei der Homogenhydrierung von α-Ethylstyrol mit (RhCl-Hexadien-1,5)₂ 2-Phenylbutan mit einer optischen Ausbeute von 34%.     

Zur hydrogeologischen Interpretation von Isotopendaten im Zusammenhang mit Stofftransportprozessen

The migration of radionuclides and other tracers in porous layers is determined by substance transport. The physical and hydraulic basis of retardation is investigated. A definition of a factor of retardation is given, describing the ratio between the pore velocity of the water and the velocity of tracer migration. Consequences to the groundwater protection are discussed.     

Mechanisms of phosphate transfer on the purine salvage pathway

Abstract

α-D-Ribofuranosyl-1,2-cyclic monophosphate and 5-phospho-α-D-ribofuranosy1-1, 2-cyclic monophosphate were synthesized in good yields. The five-membered ring cyclic phosphates have ³¹p chemical shifts similar to those found for such structures, presumably reflecting the smaller O-P-O bond angle, compared to that in six-membered ring phosphates. The rate of OH^? catalyzed ring opening was similar to that reported for ethylene phosphate, indicating relief of ring strain during hydrolysis. α-D-Ribofuranosyl-1, 2-cyclic monophosphate was found to irreversibly inactivate purine nucleoside phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.1) at its catalytic center.     

Interfaces in Composites. Reinforcement of Elastomers by Carbon Black

Basic features of carbon black-aggregation of particles into structure, particle size and morphology, and surface activity-are reviewed. Carbon black reinforcement of vulcanizates is first examined in the example of tearing, and the influence of hysteresis is considered. The dynamic properties of vulcanizates containing two major types of reinforcing carbon black are compared.

While particle size gives the best correlation with tensile strength of vulcanizates, surface activity is shown to be the key to reinforcement. The role of these properties of carbon black in dissipating rupture energy is discussed.

The relation between work to tensile break and hysteresis to break in gum rubbers can be applied to black-reinforced vulcanizates by use of a strain amplification factor. The complication introduced by stress-softening is explained in terms of localized stress relaxation. Abrasion reinforcement can also be explained in terms of hysteresis.

The Flory-Rehner relationship of modulus of elasticity of swollen vulcanizates to physically-effective cross-linking applies to unswollen vulcanizates only after prestressing. Black-reinforced vulcanizates involve application of the strain amplification factor.

The concept of mobile linkages to rubber chains at the surface of black particles is related to the influence of strain magnification and strain rate magnification in the reinforcing mechanism. These linkages result in formation of “shell” rubber adjacent to carbon black particles. The slippage of rubber chains relative to carbon black aggregates allows stress-sharing by highly-stressed chains. Bound rubber results from reaction of elastomer free radicals generated during mastication with carbon black.

There is a relation between bound rubber and reinforcement which is fully developed only after vulcanization. Formation of bound rubber results from the surface activity of carbon black rather than its structure. Its contribution to reinforcement of the vulcanizate may be as important as cross-linking.     

Overcoming Symmetry Mismatch in Vaccine Nanoassembly through Spontaneous Amidation

Matching of symmetry at interfaces is a fundamental obstacle in molecular assembly. Virus‐like particles (VLPs) are important vaccine platforms against pathogenic threats, including Covid‐19. However, symmetry mismatch can prohibit vaccine nanoassembly. We established an approach for coupling VLPs to diverse antigen symmetries. SpyCatcher003 enabled efficient VLP conjugation and extreme thermal resilience. Many people had pre‐existing antibodies to SpyTag:SpyCatcher but less to the 003 variants. We coupled the computer‐designed VLP not only to monomers (SARS‐CoV‐2) but also to cyclic dimers (Newcastle disease, Lyme disease), trimers (influenza hemagglutinins), and tetramers (influenza neuraminidases). Even an antigen with dihedral symmetry could be displayed. For the global challenge of influenza, SpyTag‐mediated display of trimer and tetramer antigens strongly induced neutralizing antibodies. SpyCatcher003 conjugation enables nanodisplay of diverse symmetries towards generation of potent vaccines.     

Development and Molecular Understanding of a Pd-Catalyzed Cyanation of Aryl Boronic Acids Enabled by High-Throughput Experimentation and Data Analysis

A synthetic method for the palladium-catalyzed cyanation of aryl boronic acids using bench stable and non-toxic N-cyanosuccinimide has been developed. High-throughput experimentation facilitated the screen of 90 different ligands and the resultant statistical data analysis identified that ligand σ-donation, π-acidity and sterics are key drivers that govern yield. Categorization into three ligand groups – monophosphines, bisphosphines and miscellaneous – was performed before the analysis. For the monophosphines, the yield of the reaction increases for strong σ-donating, weak π-accepting ligands, with flexible pendant substituents. For the bisphosphines, the yield predominantly correlates with ligand lability. The applicability of the designed reaction to a wider substrate scope was investigated, showing good functional group tolerance in particular with boronic acids bearing electron-withdrawing substituents. This work outlines the development of a novel reaction, coupled with a fast and efficient workflow to gain understanding of the optimal ligand properties for the design of improved palladium cross-coupling catalysts.     

Thermal processes in the systems with Li-battery cathode materials and LiPF6 -based organic solutions

Thermodynamic instability of positive electrodes (cathodes) in Li-ion batteries in humid air and battery solutions results in capacity fading and batteries degradation, especially at elevated temperatures. In this work, we studied thermal interactions between cathode materials Li₂MnO₃, xLi₂MnO₃ ^.(1???x)Li(MnNiCo)O₂,LiNi_0.33Mn_0.33Co_0.33O₂, LiNi_0.4Mn_0.4Co_0.2O₂, LiNi_0.8Co_0.15Al_0.05O₂ LiMn_1.5Ni_0.5O₄, LiMn(or Fe)PO₄, and battery solutions containing ethylene carbonate (EC) or propylene carbonate (PC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC) or ethylmethyl carbonate (EMC) and LiPF₆ salt in the temperature range of 40–400 °C. It was found that these materials are stable chemically and well performing in LiPF₆-based solutions up to 60 °C. The thermal decomposition of the electrolyte solutions starts >180 °C. The macro-structural transformations of cathode materials upon exothermic reactions were studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray difraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies have shown that the exothermic reactions in the temperature range of 60–140 °C lead to partial decomposition of both the cathode material and electrolyte solution. The systems thus formed consisted of partially decomposed solutions and partially chemically delithiated cathode materials covered by reactions products. Thermal reactions terminate and this system reaches equilibrium at about 120 °C. It remains stable up to the beginning of the solution decomposition at about 180 °C. The increased content of surface Li₂CO₃ is found to significantly affect the thermal processes at high temperature range due to extensive exothermic decomposition at low temperatures.     

Palladium‐Catalyzed Direct CH Functionalization of Benzoquinone

A direct Pd‐catalyzed C? H functionalization of benzoquinone (BQ) can be controlled to give either mono‐ or disubstituted BQ, including the installation of two different groups in a one‐pot procedure. BQ can now be directly functionalized with aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, and cycloalkene groups and, moreover, the reaction is conducted in environmentally benign water or acetone as solvents.     

Association phenomena in a ferromagnetic colloid

We discuss the equation of state and the static correlations in a system of spherical ferromagnetic grains suspended in a magnetically passive fluid. In the domain where dipole-dipole interactions between the grains are large (low temperature) we show that the variation of the small-angle X-ray scattering with magnetic field provides a sensitive test of the model proposed to treat this system. We discuss the condensation of the grains into linear chains at low density, high magnetic field, and low temperature. The possibility of resonances in the small-angle X-ray scattering is demonstrated and certain other consequences of chain formation are indicated.     

Enzymatic oxidation of para-substituted arenes: access to new non-racemic chiral metabolites for synthesis

A series of para-substituted benzene derivatives were subjected to whole-cell fermentation with Escherichia coli JM109 (pDTG601), an organism expressing toluene dioxygenase (TDO). Several compounds proved to be excellent substrates for TDO, including 4-bromo-phenylacetylene, 4-bromobenzaldehyde, 4-bromobenzyl alcohol and 4-bromo-allylbenzene. Some of the first para-functionalized diene diols produced using TDO, are useful substrates for further synthetic manipulations, including their use in the potential synthesis of complex natural products.
