Preparation and characterization of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers functionalized with a rhenium carbonyl complex and PEG as new IR probes for carbonyl metallo immunoassay

The first poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers tethered with both (η⁵-cyclopentadienyl) rhenium tricarbonyl (CpRe(CO)₃) units and polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains were prepared and characterized by combining NMR spectroscopy and Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy. Grafting of CpRe(CO)₃ units was achieved by reductive amination of formyl-CpRe(CO)₃ with the peripheral amines of generation 3 and 4 PAMAMs to yield dendrimers labeled with a variable number of CpRe(CO)₃ units, ranging from 8 to 14 for PAMAM-G3 and 17-30 for PAMAM-G4. PEG chains of different lengths were then attached to some of the remaining peripheral amines, and their respective ability to improve the solubility of the metallodendrimers in aqueous buffered media was evaluated. These metallodendrimers represent new infrared probes designed to be coupled to immunological reagents for the amplification of the IR signal in carbonyl metallo immunoassay (CMIA).     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Ternary Complex: [Ni(phen)2(pmal)]·8H2O

A new ternary complex [Ni(phen)(pmal)]·8H2O (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline,pmal2- = phenethyl malonic acid) has been synthesized by the reaction of nickel acetate, phen and phenethyl malonic acid. Elemental analysis, IR spectra and X-ray single-crystal diffraction were carried out to determine the composition and crystal structure. Crystal data for this complex: triclinic system, space group P1, a = 10.387(5), b = 13.112(6), c = 14.229(6) (A), α = 76.176(7), β =83.778(8), y = 71.770(6)°, C35H42N4O12Ni, Mr= 769.44, Z = 2, F(000) = 808, V = 1786.1 (A)3, Dc =1.431 g/cm3, μ = 0.612 mm-1, the final R = 0.0653 and wR = 0.1033 for 9379 (Rint = 0.0244)independent reflections and 4730 observed reflections (I ＞ 2σ(I)). Structural analysis shows that the coordination geometry of Ni(Ⅱ) is a distorted octahedron. A novel two-dimensional structure is constructed from (H2O)4 and (H2O)12 water clusters, and the complex forms a 3-D network supramolecular structure by hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking of neighboring phens.     

Tuning size and catalytic activity of nano-clusters of cobalt oxide

Cobalt oxides were prepared by three different methods: (1) by reacting cobalt nitrate with oxalic acid, (2) co-precipitating cobalt nitrate with sodium carbonate, and (3) using sodium dodecyl sulphate as organic surfactant. All three samples were characterized before and after calcination by solvent extraction and the resulting products examined by IR spectroscopy. In the case of method 3, the removal of surfactant was followed by TGA studies. Products from all three methods were identified by XRD. Peaks in low angle XRD indicate the porous nature of the oxides. The morphology of the pores was studied by transmission electron microscopy. Some irregular pore structures were obtained for samples from methods 1 and 2, with an average size of 4–6 nm. Only the product from method 3 using SDS as template showed ordered structure and optimum size, and Brunauer-Emmet-Teller surface areas of the as-prepared, as well as the treated samples, exhibited H3 type hysteresis. The samples from the three methods were used as catalysts in the oxidation reaction of cyclohexane under mild conditions and the catalytic efficiency of the cobalt oxide was comparable with mesoporous cobalt oxides.     

Dynamic Scaling of Ramified Clusters Formed on Liquid Surfaces

A comprehensive simulation model -deposition,diffusion, rotation, reaction and aggregation model is presented to simulate the formation processes of ramified clusters on liquid surfaces, where clusters can diffuse and rotate easily. The mobility (including diffusion and rotation) of clusters is related to its mass, which is given by Dm = Dos-γD and θm =′θos-γθ, respectively. The influence of the reaction probability on the kinetics and structure formation is included in the simulation model. We concentrate on revealing dynamic scaling during ramified cluster formation. For this purpose, the time evolution of the cluster density and the weight-average cluster size as well as the cluster-size distribution scaling function at different time are determined for various conditions. The dependence of the cluster density on the deposition flux and time-dependence of fractal dimension are also investigated. The obtained results are helpful in understanding the formation of clusters or thin film growth on liquid surfaces.     

Recent studies on phosphorus-bridging carbonyl derivatives: organophosphorus analogs of aldehydes and ketones

Reactions of disodium tetracarbonylferrate, Na₂Fe(CO)₄, with sterically hindered dialkylaminodichlorophosphines, R₂NPCl₂ (R₂N=diisopropylamino, dicyclohexylamino, and 2,2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidino) in diethyl ether lead to the air-stable phosphorus-bridging carbonyl derivatives (R₂NP)₂COFe₂(CO)₆ as the major products. The phosphorus-bridging carbonyl group in (i-Pr₂NP)₂COFe₂(CO)₆ has been found to undergo the following types of reactions: 1)Reduction, 2)Acylation, 3)Extrusion of the carbonyl group. The mechanisms of the reactions have been considered.This work was presented at the Workshop «The Modern Problems of Heteroorganic Chemistry» held on the ship «Nikolai Bauman» during the period May 8–13, 1993.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
