Acylation of fluorine-containing spiro[cyclopropane-1-pyrazolines] and dehydrohalogenation of the resulting adducts

Acylation of 6-(1-fluorovinyl)-6-methyl- and 6-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluorocyclobutyl)-4,5-diazaspiro[2.4]hept-4-enes with acetyl chloride proceeds as electrophilic addition to the N(5) atom and is accompanied by opening of the cyclopropane ring to give 1-acetyl-3-(2-chloroethyl)-5-(1-fluorovinyl)-5-methyl- and 1-acetyl-3-(2-chloroethyl)-5-(2,2,3,3-tetrafluorocyclobutyl)-4,5-dihydropyrazoles, respectively. Under the same conditions, acylation of 6-(2,3,3-trifluorocyclobut-1-enyl)-4,5-diazaspiro[2.4]hept-4-ene is not regioselective. The (2-chloroethyl) pyrazolines obtained undergo dehydrochlorination into vinylpyrazolines in the presence of an excess of MeONa in MeOH. The reaction of 4-acetyl-6-(2,3,3-trifluorocyclobut-1-enyl)-4,5-diazaspiro[2.4]hept-5-ene with MeONa results in selective replacement of the F atom at the double bond by a methoxy group.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Complete 1H and 13C NMR spectral assignment of symmetric and asymmetric bis-spiropyran derivatives

(1)H and (13)C NMR spectra of symmetric and asymmetric bis-spiropyrans, Series 1-3, were completely assigned. Especially, the (1)H assignment of asymmetric spiropyrans was achieved by utilizing (1)H-(1)H COSY and nOe experiments. All of the carbons in the dye molecules were investigated through a combination of heteronuclear 2D-shift correlation spectroscopy (HETCOR), together with an attached proton test (APT).     

Geometries and electronic structures of W4 and W clusters

Geometries and electronic structures of W₄ and W clusters were studied by use of density functional methods B3LYP, B3P86, B3PW91, BHLYP, BLYP, and MPW1PW91. The calculated results indicate that the three‐dimensional structure of singlet state with either D_2d symmetry (B3LYP, B3P86, B3PW91, BLYP, and MPW1PW91) or C_2v symmetry (BHLYP) is the ground state for the W₄ cluster. For the W cluster, the doublet state is preferred, and the most stable structure is also 3D with either D_2d symmetry (B3LYP, B3PW91, BHLYP, BLYP) or C_2v symmetry (B3P86 and MPW1PW91). The calculated electron affinity at B3P86 gives the best performance compared with experiment. For the dissociation channel, W + W₃ is suggested to be the possible route for the W₄ cluster. For the W cluster, W + W is the most likely route for dissociation, in agreement with experiment. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2005

Molecular structure of di-aryl-aldimines by multinuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray diffraction

The complete ¹H, ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR analyses for a series of 25 diaryl-aldimines containing phenyl, pyridyl, pyrazolone and furanyl moieties are described herein. Detailed evaluation of substituent chemical shift and coupling constant effects showed that interaction between the lone pair of the pyrazolone carbonyl group or the nitrogen of 2-substitued pyridines with the aldimine hydrogen increases the value and shifts the resonance signal for this hydrogen to high frequency, in the ¹H NMR spectra. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of pyrazolone substituted aldimines evidenced the planarity of the aryl groups which are conjugated with the CN double bond. In the case of the N-(2-pyridinemethylene)-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1,2-dihydro-pyrazol-3-one, two rotamers were observed in the same unit cell.     

Progress on phthalocyanine-conjugated Ag and Au nanoparticles: Synthesis,characterization, and photo-physicochemical properties

Phthalocyanine (Pc) complexes are an important class of dyes with numerous (e.g., biological, photophysical, and analytical) applications. Among the methods used to improve the properties of these complexes, one should mention the introduction of different substituents, variation of the central metal ion, ligand exchange, and conjugation to nanomaterials (e.g., carbon-based nanomaterials and metal nanoparticles (NPs)). This work briefly reviews Pc complex conjugation to Ag and Au NPs, highlights the different NP shapes, and discusses the diversity of conjugation approaches. Moreover, the use of UV–Vis spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, dynamic light scattering and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy to characterize Pc-NP hybrids is summarized. The effect of conjugation on Pc photo-physicochemical properties (fluorescence, singlet oxygen generation, triplet state formation, and optical limiting behavior) is discussed, and future perspectives for the synthesis and applications of new hybrids are provided.
