Synthesis, resolution, and absolute configuration of difunctionalized Tröger's base derivatives

Two racemic derivatives of Tr?ger's base, the 2,8-diboronic acid ester 6 and the 3,9-dibromo-substituted derivative 5, were synthesized and successfully resolved by HPLC on a chiral stationary Whelk-01 phase on a semipreparative scale, thereby giving rise to both enantiomers in a pure form. These functionalized C(2)-symmetric building blocks are valuable precursors for a variety of further applications. Their absolute configurations were determined by comparison of their quantum chemically calculated CD and UV/Vis spectra with the experimental ones and were independently confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis.     

Acetylation and benzoylation of η5,η5-fulvalenedimanganesehexacarbonyl

⁵,⁵-Fulvalenedimanganesehexacarbonyl (dicymantrenyl) was acetylated and benzoylated by RC(O)Cl+AlCl₃ in CH₂Cl₂, under conditions of the Friedel-Crafts reaction. The reaction involves both nonequivalent positions of the cyclopentadienyl rings to give mixtures of two isomeric ketones. When using an excess of the acetylating mixture, diacetyl derivatives of dicymantrenyl were obtained.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Carbene triel bonds between TrR3 (Tr = B,Al) and N-heterocyclic carbenes

The carbene triel bond is predicted and characterized by theoretical calculations. The C lone pair of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) is allowed to interact with the central triel atom of TrR₃ (Tr = B and Al; R = H, F, Cl, and Br). The ensuing bond is very strong, with an interaction energy of nearly 90 kcal/mol. Replacement of the C lone pair by that of either N or Si weakens the binding. The bond is strengthened by electron-withdrawing substituents on the triel atom, and the reverse occurs with substitution on the NHC. However, these effects do not strictly follow the typical pattern of F > Cl > Br. The TrR₃ molecule suffers a good deal of geometric deformation, requiring on the order of 30 kcal/mol, in forming the complex. The R(C···Tr) bond is quite short, for example, 1.6 Å for Tr = B, and shows other indications of at least a partially covalent bond, such as a high electron density at the bond critical point and a good deal of intermolecular charge transfer.

Enzymatic Synthesis and Characterization of Novel Polycarbonates Derived from 5-Allyloxy-1, 3-dioxan-2-one and 5, 5-Dimethvl-1.3-dioxan-2-one

Novel polycarbonates from 5-allyloxy-1, 3-dioxan-2-one （ATMC） with 5, 5-dimethyl- 1, 3-dioxan-2-one （DTC） were successfully synthesized for the first time using immobilized porcine pancreas lipase （IPPL） as catalyst. The resulting copolymers were characterized by IR, ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR and GPC. The molecular weight （Mn） of the copolymer with molar feed ratio of 10：90 （ATMC：DTC） was 9300 and the polydispersity was 1.31, while the Mn increased to 14300 and polydispersity of 1.25 with the feed ratio of 50：50. Moreover, the composition of the copolymers agreed well with the monomer feed.

Structural and bonding aspects of molybdenum tricarbonyl complexes of 2,4,6-tritertiarybutyl-1,3,5-triphosphabenzene,P3C3But3 and some λ3,λ3,λ5- and λ3,λ5,λ5-alkylated derivatives

The molecular structure of the previously reported compound [Mo(CO)₃(η⁶-P₃C₃Bu^t₃)] has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Syntheses and molecular structures are also described for the structurally related compounds [Mo(CO)₃(η⁵-P₃C₃Bu^t₃)(Me)(Buⁿ)], [Mo(CO)₃(η⁵-P₃C₃Bu^t₃)(H)(Buⁿ)] and [Mo(CO)₃(η⁴-P₃C₃Bu^t₃(Me)(Buⁿ)(H)(O)Li(THF)₃]. Density functional calculations at the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ(-PP) and BP86/cc-pVDZ(-PP) levels have been carried out on the above complexes and the nature of the bonding between the different rings and molybdenum is discussed. ³¹P NMR spectroscopic evidence is presented for the existence of the novel complex [Mo(CO)₃(η⁶-P₃C₃Bu^t₃)PtCl₂(PEt₃)] in which the triphosphabenzene ring acts as an overall 8-electron donor to the two metal centres.

Synthesis and Characterization of O,O'-Bis(α-Naphthyl, β-Naphthyl,and 2, 3, 5-Trimethylphenyl)Dithiophosphate Ligands

Abstract

O,O′-Bis(α-Naphthyl, β-Naphthyl and 2,3,5-trimethylphenyl) dithiophosphate ligands have been isolated as triethylammonium salts, (α-C₁₀H₇O-, β-C₁₀H₇O, and (CH₃)₃C₆H₂O)₂PS₂HNEt₃, by the reaction of α-C₁₀H₇OH, β-C₁₀H₇OH, or (CH₃)₃C₆H₂OH with P₂S₅ in presence of Et₃N, in 4:1:2 molar ratio in chloroform under anhydrous conditions. Acidic form of these ligands, (α-C₁₀H₇O-, β-C₁₀H₇O-, or (CH₃)₃C₆H₂O)₂PS₂H, have been obtained by the direct reaction of α-C₁₀H₇OH, β-C₁₀H₇OH-, or (CH₃)₃C₆H₂OH with P₂S₅ in 4:1 molar ratio in presence of microwaves under solvent-free conditions. Both forms of the ligands have been converted into corresponding sodium salts, (α -C₁₀H₇O-, β-C₁₀H₇O-, or (CH₃)₃C₆H₂O)₂PS₂Na. These compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses (C, H, N, and S) and mass, IR, and NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P) spectroscopic studies.
