Reduction of aromatic ketones with the (dpp-BIAN)AlI(Et2O) complex

Reduction of benzophenone and 4,4′-bis(methoxy)benzophenone with the aluminum complex (dpp-BIAN)AlI(Et₂O) (1) containing the dianionic dpp-BIAN ligand (dpp-BIAN is 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene) affords the pinacolate complexes [(dpp-BIAN)AlI]₂[μ-O₂C₂Ph₄] (2) and [(dpp-BIAN)AlI]₂[μ-O₂C₂(C₆H₄OMe)₄] (3), respectively, which undergo the pinacolone rearrangement upon prolonged storage in diethyl ether to form [(dpp-BIAN)AlI]₂O (4). The reaction of 1 with fluoren-9-one produces stable pinacolate (dpp-BIAN)Al[μ-O₂(C₁₃H₈)₂] (7) and the (dpp-BIAN)AlI₂ complex (8). Compounds 2—4, 7, and 8 were characterized by ESR spectroscopy. Hydrolysis products of compounds 2 and 3 were characterized by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. The structures of complexes 4 and 7 were established by X-ray diffraction. dpp-BIAN is 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis,molecular and crystal structures,and characteristic features of electronic structures of salicylamide-based B,Si-containing chelates

The reaction of 4-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-2,6-disilamorpholine with BF₃Et₂O afforded (O-B)-chelate 4-[2-(difluoroboroxy)benzoyl]-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-2,6-disilamorpholine. Treatment of the latter with BF₃Et₂O or SOCl₂ gave rise to products of the disilamorpholine ring opening, viz., (O-B) chelate 2-(difluoroboroxy)-N,N-bis(dimethylfluorosilylmethyl)benzamide or 2-(difluoroboroxy)-N, N-bis(dimethylchlorosilylmethyl)benzamide, respectively. The structures of the compounds synthesized were confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis and ¹H, ¹³C, and ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy. High-precision X-ray diffraction study and quantum-chemical calculations demonstrated that the coordination OSi bond is absent in the two last-mentioned compounds.Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis,structure, and magnetic properties of the cobalt(<Emphasis Type="SmallCaps">II</Emphasis>) 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate layered coordination polymer

The reaction of Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O with 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (H₃btc, trimesic acid) in DMF at 100 °C afforded the coordination polymer [Co₃(dmf)₆(btc)(Hbtc)(H₂btc)]··9H₂O (1) (dmf is N,N′-dimethylformamide, DMF). According to the X-ray diffraction study, the metal-organic coordination polymer is composed of planar honeycomb (6,3) networks, in which the organic benzenetricarboxylate anions and the inorganic Co²⁺ cations play a role of three-connected nodes. Disordered water molecules are intercalated between the layers. A study of the magnetic properties showed the presence of a weak antiferromagnetic coupling between the Co²⁺ ions (S = 3/2).

Geometry,stability and aromaticity of β-diketiminate-coordinated alkaline-earth compounds

Alkaline-earth (Ae) metals have attracted a wealth of interdependent research from synthetic chemists. In Ae-catalyzed organometallic reactions, β-diketiminate is a typical ligand used to stabilize Ae catalysts by forming six-membered rings comprising Ae metals. Herein, studies focusing on the configuration of β-diketiminate-coordinated Ae compounds observed that the CC and CN bonds are homogeneous and unchanged. Furthermore, energetic studies observed that the formation of the Ae-incorporated six-membered rings results in enhanced stability of >20 kcal/mol. The nucleus-independent chemical shifts, anisotropy of the induced current density, and molecular orbital analyses demonstrated the non-aromaticity of the β-diketiminate-coordinated Ae compounds. The improved stability of these compounds can be explained by the delocalization of the π electrons derived from the β-diketiminate moiety.     

Layer arrangement in the structure of octakis-(trimethylsiloxy)octasilsesquioxane and dodecakis-(trimethylsiloxy)cyclohexasiloxane

Layers of [(CH₃)₃SiO]₈(SiO_1.5)₈ and [(CH₃)₃SiO]₁₂(SiO)₆ organosilicon compounds obtained by chemical vapor deposition were investigated by X-ray diffraction (DRON-RM4, R = 192 mm, CuK radiation) and Raman spectroscopy (Triplemate, SPEX). The layers were found to be ideally oriented polycrystalline films. The octakis-(trimethylsiloxy)octasilsesquioxane polycrystals are oriented in one crystallographic direction — [001], while the dodecakis-(trimethylsiloxy)cyclohexa-siloxane polycrystals are oriented in the and directions. Crystal structure analysis in these directions yielded the type of the planar lattice followed by the molecules and their orientation relative to the support.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by S.
