Unusual solid-state behavior in a neutral [2]catenane bearing a hydrolyzable component

A template-directed strategy to forming a bis(diimide) macrocycle through an intermediate asymmetric [2]catenane is reported. Saponification of the ester linkages within the crown ether component is much slower in the mechanically interlocked structure when compared to the free crown. The predominance of a single translational isomer leads to a dimeric structure, resulting in the generation of infinite channels within the crystal lattice. [structure: see text]     

Study on the Interaction between Gatifloxacin Mesylate and Salmon Sperm DNA by Fluorescence Method

The interaction between gatifloxacin mesylate (GM) and salmon sperm DNA was studied by fluorescence spectrometry and ultra‐violet (UV) spectrometry. Additions of salmon sperm DNA to GM solution resulted in its strong fluorescence quenching and UV absorbance decrease due to the strong interaction between GM and salmon sperm DNA. Both the maximum fluorescence emission wavelength and the maximum UV absorbance wavelength of GM did not change with the increasing concentration of salmon sperm DNA, indicating no intercalative binding existed between them. The Stern‐Volmer plot indicated that the fluorescence‐quenching constant at different temperatures or different salmon sperm DNA concentration ranges was different. Effects of ionic strength and I^? on the fluorescence quenching of GM by salmon sperm DNA indicated that electrostatic interaction and groove binding coexisted between them.

Electrochemical Preparation of Poly(Malachite Green) Film Modified Nafion‐Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode and Its Electrocatalytic Behavior Towards NADH,Dopamine and Ascorbic Acid

Poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes have been prepared by potentiodynamic cycling in malachite green solution. The pH of polymerisation solution has only minor effect on film formation. Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) was used to monitor the growth of the poly(malachite green) film. Cyclic voltammogram of the poly(malachite green) film shows a redox couple with well‐defined peaks. The redox response of the modified electrode was found to be depending on the pH of the contacting solution. The peak potentials were shifted to a less positive region with increasing pH and the dependence of the peak potential was found to be 56 mV per pH unit. The electrocatalytic behavior of poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes was tested towards oxidation of NADH, dopamine, and ascorbic acid. The oxidation of dopamine and ascorbic acid occurred at less positive potential on poly(malachite green) film compared to bare glassy carbon electrode. In the case of NADH, the overpotential was reduced substantially on modified electrode. Finally, the feasibility of utilizing poly(malachite green) film electrode in analytical estimation of ascorbic acid was demonstrated in flow injection analysis.

Nondissociative chemisorption of short chain alkanethiols on Au(111)

The adsorption of methanethiol and n-propanethiol on the Au(111) surface has been studied by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), and low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (LT-STM). Methanethiol desorbs molecularly from the chemisorbed monolayer at temperatures below 220 K in three overlapping desorption processes. No evidence for S-H or C-S bond cleavage has been found on the basis of three types of observations: (1) A mixture of chemisorbed CH3SD and CD3SH does not yield CD3SD, (2) no sulfur remains after desorption, and (3) no residual surface species remain when the adsorbed layer is heated to 300 K as measured by STM. On the other hand, when defects are introduced on the surface by ion bombardment, the desorption temperature of CH3SH is extended to 300 K and a small amount of dimethyl disulfide is observed to desorb at 410 K, indicating that S-H bond scission occurs on defect sites on Au(111) followed by dimerization of CH3S(a) species. Propanethiol also adsorbs nondissociatively on the Au(111) surface and desorbs from the surface below 250 K.     

Catalyst Design for Methacrolein Oxidation to Methacrylic Acid

Heteropoly compounds (HPCs) with the general formula CsMHPVMo₁₁O₄₀are prepared and tested as catalysts. The influence of elements entering the formula on the catalyst properties is studied: Cs defines the acidity and specific area, V controls the selectivity, and the transition metal M defines the mobility of oxygen in the bulk and the catalyst activity. The mechanism of methacrolein oxidation over HPCs is investigated. Using the response method and mass spectrometry of the reaction mixture, it is shown that only the catalyst oxygen atoms take part in the formation of methacrylic acid and that the transport of active oxygen to adsorbed methacrolein plays a key role in the oxidation process. A correlation between the HPC activity and the redox ability of the metal cation M ⁿ⁺ M ^{n+ i} (i= 1 or 2) is found. New catalysts for methacrolein oxidation to methacrylic acid are developed on the basis of this correlation. These are the salts of PVMo-poly acid with Cs, Cu, and the transition metal M as cations. These catalysts are more active (a conversion of up to 91%) and selective (up to 98%) compared to conventional catalysts for methacrolein oxidation to methacrylic acid.     

Tetraazadibora[3, 3]paracyclophane

Starting from the para‐phenylenediamine derivative HN(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐NH(SiMe₃), a lithiation and subsequent borylation give [(MeO)₂B]N(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)[B(OMe)₂] ( 1 ), the hydridation of which yields Li₂[(H₃B)N(SiMe₃)‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)(BH₃)] ( 2 ). Applying ZrCl₄ upon 2 initiates a condensation to give the title compound [‐N(SiMe₃)‐p‐C₆H₄‐N(SiMe₃)‐BH‐]₂, a hetero[3, 3]paracyclophane with two N‐B‐N chains that connect the para‐phenylene units. The product 3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P2₁2₁2₁.     

Ligand exchange reactions with η6-arene-η5-cyclopentadienyliron cations under thermal or photochemical conditions

Reactions of various η⁶-arene-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron or substituted cyclopentadienyliron cations with trimethyl, triethyl or triphenyl phosphite under either thermal or photochemical conditions all resulted in the replacement of the arene ligand with three phosphite ligands to give η⁵-tris(trimethyl, triethyl or triphenyl phosphite)-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron or substituted cyclopentadienyliron cations. The yields of the phosphite complexes were higher from photolysis than from the analogous thermolysis. Photolysis of the η⁶-chlorobenzene-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron cation (IX) carried out in the presence of a more basic or more electron-rich aromatic ligand resulted in the exchange of the chlorobenzene of IX with the more basic arene, thus providing synthetic routes to cyclopentadienyliron complexes that may be difficult to prepare by other means. New complexes synthesized in this way are the η⁶-2-phenylethyl tosylate-η⁵-cyclopentadienyliron cation and the CpFe⁺ complexes of thiophene, 2-methylthiophene, 3-methylthiophene and 2,5-dimethylthiophene.
