N-D-labeled ionic probes for mass spectrometry

An effective ¹⁵N- and deuterium (D)-labeled 2,6-bis(oxazolin-2-yl)pyridine (pybox)-La complex based probe ionization method that produces a distinct isotopic shift was developed. The distinct isotopic shift was detected by using the newly synthesized ¹⁵N-D-labeled pybox complexes. Moreover, O-[3-(tetramethylpybox)-propyl]-hydroxylamine (oxime-TMpybox) was prepared for attachment to the carbonyl group of the target molecule. Distinct isotopic shifts and multiple charged ions were detected for various compounds having amino, thiol, carboxyl, and carbonyl groups and fullerenes, using the TMpybox ionic probe series in cold-spray ionization mass spectrometry.     

Anion exchange in trimethyl‐ and triphenyltin complexes with chromogenic ligands: solution equilibria and colorimetric anion sensing

A series of organotin(IV) compounds R₃Sn(A) where R = Me or Ph and A is a chromogenic nitrophenolate ligand were prepared and studied as possible colorimetric sensors for anions (F⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻, AcO⁻, H₂PO₄⁻). Equilibrium constants for a complete set of reactions between R₃Sn(A) with A = 2‐amino‐4‐nitrophenolate (ANP) or 4‐nitrophenolate and anions (X⁻) involving formation of complexes R₃Sn(A)(X)⁻ and substitution products R₃Sn(X) and R₃Sn(X)₂⁻ were determined by UV‐vis and ¹H NMR titrations in MeCN and DMSO. The binding selectivity was AcO⁻ > F⁻ > H₂PO₄⁻ > Cl⁻ ≫ Br⁻ in both solvents and both for R = Me and Ph with higher affinity for R = Ph. Compounds with A = ANP were found to have the optimum properties as anion sensors allowing optical detection of F⁻, AcO⁻ and H₂PO₄⁻ anions in the 5–100 µM range by appearance of an intense absorption band of free ANP resulting from its substitution with the analyte. Selectivity and affinity of anion interactions with R₃Sn(ANP) are similar to those for thiourea receptors, but the organotin receptor produces a much larger naked eye detected optical signal, operates equally well in nonpolar and polar solvents and tolerates the presence of up to 20% vol. of water in DMSO.

DNA damage induced by organotins on ­trout‐nucleated erythrocytes

The effect of tributyltin‐chloride (TBTC), dibutyltin‐chloride (DBTC) and monobutyltin‐chloride (MBTC) on rainbow trout (Salmo irideus) nuclear DNA, was investigated by means of single cell gel electrophoresis (‘comet’ assay). Our data show that TBTC presents a marked genotoxic effect, whereas the genotoxic effect is less pronounced for DBTC and it is completely absent for MBTC. These results could be important in evaluating the environmental risks deriving from the use of these molecules as a antifouling agents in marine paints and as agricultural biocides.

Non-isothermal Decomposition Kinetics of Complex of Co(III), Ni(II) with O,O'-dialkyldithiophosphates and Adducts of Ni-complex with Pyridines

Thermal behaviour of tri(O,O'-diisopropyldithiophosphate)cobalt(III), Co(dptp)₃ and bis (O,O'-diethyldithiophosphate)nickel(II), Ni(detp)₂ and its adducts with pyridine, Ni(detp)₂(py)₂ or 4-methylpyridine, Ni(detp)(mpy)₂ in a dynamic nitrogen atmosphere was investigated by TG-DTG and DSC techniques, which showed a medium endothermic peak for the evolution process of pyridine(or 4-methylpyridine) and a strong exothermic peak for that of O,O'-diethyldithiophosphate. The thermal stability and decomposition patterns for these compounds were compared and interpreted in terms of structural features such as bond character and steric effects. The kinetic parameters and mechanisms of every decomposition stage involved for all these complexes were obtained employing the non-isothermal kinetic analysis method suggested by Malek et al., which showed the kinetics mechanism for pyrolysis of pyridine(or 4-methylpyridine) is an S-B empirical model with lower activation energy, while that of O,O'-dialkyldithiophosphate is a diffusion model. These results are in accord with the fact that two ligands are of different type. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Addition of Me3SiCN to trifluoromethyl derivates of N‐(pyridylmethylidene) anilines catalyzed by Lewis acids

A series of novel Shiff bases (1a–h) was synthesized by condensation of pyridinecarboxaldehydes (1–4) with 3‐ and 4‐trifluoromethylanilines (5, 6) in the presence of molecular sieves (4 Å). It was found that AlCl₃ and AlBr₃ catalyzed the addition of Me₃SiCN to the C?N bond of the imines obtained, whereas the other Lewis acids studied (YCl₃, LaCl₃, ZnI₂) were not active. The reactivity of the imines in the title reaction, on the whole, correlated with their basicity. Besides the addition giving the expected α‐amino nitriles (2a,b,d–f,h), an unusual reaction leading to unsaturated nitriles (3a–h) was observed. The structures of saturated and unsaturated products 2d and 3c were determined by X‐ray diffraction. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
