Vibrational Spectra of β-P₄S₅ and P₄S₇ The vibrational spectra of the solid and liquid cage compounds β-P₄S₅ and P₄S₇ have been recorded. The assignments of the frequencies are proposed mainly based on polarization data. β-P₄S₅ decomposes during melting into P₄S₃ α-P₄S₇ and β-P₄S₆. Molten α-P₄S₇ dissociates to some extent into β-P₄S₆ and sulphur. An association of β-P₄S₆ with α-P₄S₇ is discussed for the molten state. All reactions in molten P₄S₇ are reversible.

The reaction of the thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)₂Cl] 1 , with EtOCS2K and C4H8NCS2NH4 in dichloromethane at room temperature yielded the seven coordinated ethyldithiocarbonate thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐S₂COEt)(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)] 2 , and the dithiocarbamate thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐S₂CNC₄H₈)(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)] 3 .

Phosphorus NMR and Ab Initio Modelling of P–N Bond Rotamers of a Sterically Crowded Chiral β‐P4S3 Diamide

Reaction of bicyclic β‐P₄S₃I₂ with enantiomerically pure (R)‐Hpthiq (1‐phenyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroisoquinoline) and Et₃N gave a solution of a single diastereomer of the unusually stable diamide β‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂, accounting for 83 % of the phosphorus content. Despite the steric bulk of the substituents, each amide group of this could adopt either of two rotameric positions about their P–N bonds, so that, at 183 K, ³¹P NMR multiplets for four rotamers could be observed and the spectra of three of them analysed fully. The large ²J(P–P–P) coupling became greater (253, 292, 304 Hz) with decreasing abundance of the individual rotamers. The rotamers were modelled at the ab initio RHF/3–21G* level, and relative NMR chemical shifts predicted by the GIAO method using a locally dense basis set, allowing the observed spectra to be assigned to structures. Calculations at the same level for the model compound α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)Cl confirmed the assignments of low‐temperature rotamers of α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)I reported previously. Changes in observed P–P coupling constants and ³¹P chemical shifts, on rotating a pthiq substituent, could then be compared between β‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂ and α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)I, confirming both sets of assignments. The most abundant rotamer of β‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂ was not the one with the least sterically crowded sides of both pthiq substituents pointing towards the P₄S₃ cage, because of interaction between the two substituents. Only by using a DFT method could relative abundances of rotamers of β‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂ be predicted to be in the observed order. Use of racemic Hpthiq gave also the two diastereomers of β‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂ with C_s symmetry, for which the room temperature ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectra were analysed fully.     

Conformation of Peptides Containing a Chiral α‐Ethylated α,α‐Disubstituted α‐Amino Acid: (S)‐α‐Ethylleucine (=(2S)‐2‐Amino‐2‐ethyl‐4‐methylpentanoic Acid) within Sequences of Dimethylglycine and Diethylglycine Residues

An optically active (S)‐α‐ethylleucine ((S)‐αEtLeu) as a chiral α‐ethylated α,α‐disubstituted α‐amino acid was synthesized by means of a chiral acetal auxiliary of (R,R)‐cyclohexane‐1,2‐diol. The chiral α‐ethylated α,α‐disubstituted amino acid (S)‐αEtLeu was introduced into the peptides constructed from 2‐aminoisobutyric acid (=dimethylglycine, Aib), and also into the peptide prepared from diethylglycine (Deg). The X‐ray crystallographic analysis revealed that both right‐handed (P) and left‐handed (M) 3₁₀‐helical structures exist in the solid state of CF₃CO‐(Aib)₂‐[(S)‐αEtLeu]‐(Aib)₂‐OEt ( 14 ) and CF₃CO‐[(S)‐αEtLeu]‐(Deg)₄‐OEt ( 18 ), respectively. The IR, CD, and ¹H‐NMR spectra indicated that the dominant conformation of pentapeptides 14 and CF₃CO‐[(S)‐αEtLeu]‐(Aib)₄‐OEt ( 16 ) in solution is a 3₁₀‐helical structure, and that of 18 in solution is a planar C₅ conformation. The conformation of peptides was also studied by molecular‐mechanics calculations.     

An Inverted‐Sandwich Diuranium μ‐η5:η5‐Cyclo‐P5 Complex Supported by U‐P5 δ‐Bonding

Reaction of [U(Tren^TIPS)] [ 1 , Tren^TIPS=N(CH₂CH₂NSiiPr₃)₃] with 0.25 equivalents of P₄ reproducibly affords the unprecedented actinide inverted sandwich cyclo‐P₅ complex [{U(Tren^TIPS)}₂(μ‐η⁵:η⁵‐cyclo‐P₅)] ( 2 ). All prior examples of cyclo‐P₅ are stabilized by d‐block metals, so 2 shows that cyclo‐P₅ does not require d‐block ions to be prepared. Although cyclo‐P₅ is isolobal to cyclopentadienyl, which usually bonds to metals via σ‐ and π‐interactions with minimal δ‐bonding, theoretical calculations suggest the principal bonding in the U(P₅)U unit is polarized δ‐bonding. Surprisingly, the characterization data are overall consistent with charge transfer from uranium to the cyclo‐P₅ unit to give a cyclo‐P₅ charge state that approximates to a dianionic formulation. This is ascribed to the larger size and superior acceptor character of cyclo‐P₅ compared to cyclopentadienyl, the strongly reducing nature of uranium(III), and the availability of uranium δ‐symmetry 5f orbitals.     

A Chiral Amide Derivative with the β‐P4S3 Cage Skeleton

The diamide exo, exo‐β‐P₄S₃(NHCH(Me)Ph)₂ has been made in solution using enantiomerically pure or racemic PhCH(Me)NH₂, and its three diastereomers characterised by complete analysis of their ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectra.The unsymmetric diastereomer contains phosphorus atoms, made chemically non‐equivalent by the chirality of the substituents, which show a large ²J(P—P—P) coupling to each other (225.2 Hz).     

Conformational Study of Heteropentapeptides Containing an α‐Ethylated α,α‐Disubstituted Amino Acid: (S)‐Butylethylglycine (=2‐Amino‐2‐ethylhexanoic Acid) within a Sequence of Dimethylglycine (=2‐Aminoisobutyric Acid) Residues

Heteropentapeptides containing the α‐ethylated α,α‐disubstituted amino acid (S)‐butylethylglycine and four dimethylglycine residues, i.e., CF₃CO‐[(S)‐Beg]‐(Aib)₄‐OEt ( 4 ) and CF₃CO‐(Aib)₂‐[(S)‐Beg]‐(Aib)₂‐OEt ( 7 ), were synthesized by conventional solution methods. In the solid state, the preferred conformation of 4 was shown to be both a right‐handed (P) and a left‐handed (M) 3₁₀‐helical structure, and that of 7 was a right‐handed (P) 3₁₀‐helical structure. IR, CD, and ¹H‐NMR spectra revealed that the dominant conformation of both 4 and 7 in solution was the 3₁₀‐helical structure. These conformations were also supported by molecular‐mechanics calculations.

Contributions to the Chemistry of Phosphorus. 231. Li₃P₇S₃ and Li₂HP₇S₂ — the First Sulfido Heptaphosphanes(3) The novel sulfido heptaphosphanes(3) Li₃P₇S₃ ( 1 ) and Li₂HP₇S₂ ( 2 ) have been obtained by the reaction of Li₃P₇ with sulfur in tetrahydrofuran under suitable conditions. The compounds 1 and 2 are also formed from LiP₅ and sulfur and are only stable in solution below room temperature. According to a complete analysis of the ³¹P{¹H}-NMR spectra, in each case, the sulfur atoms are bonded as sulfido groups exocyclically to the heptaphosphanortricyclene skeleton. Compound 2 reacts with chloro(trimethyl)silane or acetylacetone at one of the two sulfido groups while compound 1 does not form any product with retention of the P₇(3) framework.

Additionally, the dissociation of p‐cymene from 2a and 3a gives dichloro{(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl [(1R)‐(1‐(η⁶‐phenyl)ethyl][(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP)ruthenium(II) ( 4a ) and di‐μ‐chlorobis{(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl [(1R)‐1‐(η⁶‐phenyl)ethyl][(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP}diruthenium(II) bis(hexafluorophosphate) ( 5a ), respectively, in which one phenyl group of the N‐substituents is η⁶‐coordinated to the Ru‐center. Complexes 3a and 3b catalyze the asymmetric cyclopropanation of α‐methylstyrene with ethyl diazoacetate with up to 86 and 87% ee for the cis‐ and the trans‐isomers, respectively.     

Concomitant polymorphism in the stereoselective synthesis of a β‐benzyl‐β‐hydroxyaspartate analogue

Two concomitant polymorphs, (I) and (II), of a β‐benzyl‐β‐hydroxyaspartate analogue [systematic name: dibenzyl 2‐benzyl‐2‐hydroxy‐3‐(4‐methylphenylsulfonamido)succinate], C₃₂H₃₁NO₇S, crystallize from a mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane at ambient temperature. The structure of (I) has triclinic (P) symmetry and that of (II) monoclinic (P2₁/c) symmetry. Both crystal structures are made up of a stacking of homochiral racemic dimers (2S,3S and 2R,3R) which are internally connected by a similar R₂²(9) hydrogen‐bonding pattern consisting of intermolecular N—H...O and O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The centroid of the racemic dimer lies on an inversion centre. The main structural difference between the two polymorphs is the conformational orientation of two of the four aromatic rings present in the molecule. Polymorph (II) is found to be twinned by reticular merohedry with twin index 3 and twin fractions 0.854 (1) and 0.146 (1).     

Vibration spectrum and normal coordinate analysis of the pyrothiophosphates Na4P2S7, Na2FeP2S7, and Ag4P2S7

Na₄P₂S₇, Na₂FeP₂S₇, and Ag₄P₂S₇ were prepared by elemental synthesis at high temperatures and were characterized by vibration spectra and differential thermal analysis (DTA). A normal coordinate analysis was performed for P₂S⁴⁻₇. Additional vibration frequencies indicate the presence of the decathiotriphosphate anion P₃S⁵⁻₁₀. The formation of higher thiophosphates of the type P_nS^(n+2)-_3n+1 with n ≥ 4 cannot be excluded.     

Phosphorus NMR Characterisation of P–N Bond Rotamers of a α‐P4S3 Amide with a Conformationally Constrained Chiral Substituent

Reactions of bicyclic α‐P₄S₃I₂ with Hpthiq gave solutions containing α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)I and α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)₂, where Hpthiq is the conformationally constrained chiral secondary amine 1‐phenyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroisoquinoline. The expected diastereomers have been characterised by complete analysis of their ³¹P{¹H} NMR spectra. Hindered P–N bond rotation in the amide iodide α‐P₄S₃(pthiq)I caused greater broadening of peaks in the room‐temperature spectrum of one diastereomer than in that of the other. At 183 K, spectra of two P–N bond rotamers for each diastereomer were observed and analysed. The minor rotamers showed strong evidence for steric crowding, having large diastereomeric differences in ¹J(P–P) and ²J(P–S–P) couplings (49 Hz, 16 % of value, and 4.4 Hz, 19 % of value, respectively).
