Synthesis and characterisation of (Z)-1-[2(triphenylstannyl)vinyl]-l-cyclododecanol, c-(CH₂)₁₁C(OH)CH=CHSnPh₃, are reported, together with its halogenation by I₂, Br₂ and ICI to yield derivatives of the types c-(CH₂)₁₁C(OH)CH=CHSnPhs_?nX_n (n=1, 2; X=I, Br, Cl, respectively). The molecular structures of two compounds have been determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The tin atom exhibits a distorted tetrahedral geometry in the crystal of (Z)-l-[2–(triphenylstannyI)vinyl]-l-cyclododecanol, but a trigonal bipyramidal geometry in the monoiodo-derivative (Z)-l-[2]-(diphenyliodo-stannyl)vinyl)-1-cyclododecanol and other derivatives, in which significant intramolecular coordinative interaction HO→Sn ia observed. And the formation of a five-membered tin containing ring is significant for their antitumour activities.

Ligand exchange reactions of fac -(dihapto-[60]fullerene) (dihapto-1,2- bis -(diphenylphosphino)ethane tricarbonyl chromium(0)

The complex fac-(η²-C₆₀)(η²-dppe)Cr(CO)₃ (dppe?=?1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane and C₆₀?=?[60]fullerene) reacts with piperidine (pip) to produce fac-(η²-C₆₀)(η¹-pip)₂Cr(CO)₃. The reactions are first order with respect to [?fac-(η²-C₆₀)(η²-dppe)Cr(CO)₃] under flooding conditions where [pip]???[?fac-(η²-C₆₀)(η²-dppe)Cr(CO)₃]. The pseudo-first order rate constant values (k _obsd) are [pip]-dependent. Curved (upward) plots of k _obsd versus [pip] and linear plots of k _obsd versus [pip]² indicate that the piperidine-assisted dppe displacement from fac-(η²-C₆₀) (η²-dppe)Cr(CO)₃ is second order with respect to [pip]. The proposed mechanism involves a [60]fullerene-stabilized intermediate.     

Electron impact induced cyclizations in 4-chioro-3-(N-aryliminomethyl) (2H) benzopyrans and benzothiopyrans

Intramolecular substitutions leading to cyclizations with the ejection of chlorine have been noticed during mass spectral fragmentation of 4-chloro-3-(N-aryliminomethyl) (2H) benzopyrans and benzothiopyrans. Very interesting ortho effects involving intramolecular substitutions have also been observed in 6-methyl-4-diloro-3-[N-(2-methoxyphenyliminomethyl)] (2H) benzopyran and 6-methyl-4-chloro-3-[N-(2-chlorophenyliminomethyl)]-(2H) benzopyran. The proposed fragmentation mechanisms have been supported by the accurate mass measurements and linked scan studies.     

Palladium(II) complexes with 5-methyl-5-(4-pyridyl)-2,4-imidazolidenedione

Two new palladium(II) complexes with 5-methyl-5-(4-pyridyl)-2,4-imidazolidenedione(mpyh) were synthesized: cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Cl₂]·H₂O and cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Br₂]·2H₂O. The molecular formulae of the complexes were confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, ¹H NMR spectra and DTA study. The ligand is coordinated to the palladium ion with N-atom of the pyridine ring. The spectroscopic data indicate a square planar geometry with two N-pyridine atoms and two halogene anions in cis position. The final product of the thermal decomposition of cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Cl₂]·H₂O is metallic Pd, whereas for cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Br₂]·2H₂O the residue consists of metallic Pd and C. The cytotoxic effects of the complexes were examined in vitro on some human tumor cell lines. The cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Cl₂]·H₂O proved to be more active as compared to the cis-[Pd(mpyh)₂Br₂]·2H₂O.

Platinum(II) complexes containing 2-(alkenyl)pyridines

The ligands 2-(allyl)pyridine(APy), and 2-(1-methallyl)pyridine (1-MAPy) react with [Pt₂X₄(PEt₃)₂] (X = Cl or Br), in acetone solution to give complexes of the type [PtX(PEt₃)L] [PtX₃(PEt₃)], (L = APy or 1-MAPy), which contain a bidentate 2-(alkenyl)pyridine, whereas the same reaction in benzene solution gives trans-[PtBr₂(PEt₃)L], (L = APy or 1-MAPy), which contains a monodentate 2-(alkenyl)pyridine; ¹H NMR spectra indicate that both types of product undergo olefin exchange in solution.

Magnetic measurements of the cobalt compounds were performed in solution by ¹H NMR spectroscopy using the Evans’ method while their redox properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the compounds revealed their octahedral geometries and trans configuration, except for 8a, which has a cis configuration. Intermolecular noncovalent interactions were detected, π···π interactions in 5, C?–?H···π interactions in 2 and C?–?H···π edge-to-face (T-shaped) arrangements in 3, 4, 6, and 7.     

Efficient synthesis of (2S)-tert-butyl 2-(2-bromopropanamido)-5-oxo-5-(tritylamino)pentanoate as a precursor of PET radiotracer [18F]FPGLN

This study describes a convenient protocol for the synthesis of (2S)-tert-butyl 2-(2-bromopropanamido)-5-oxo-5-(tritylamino)pentanoate, which can serve as an appropriate precursor of (2S)-5-amino-2-(2-[¹⁸F]fluoropropanamido)-5-oxopentanoic acid (N-(2-[¹⁸F]fluoropropionyl)-L-glutamine, [¹⁸F]FPGLN) for tumor positron emission tomography imaging. Five-step synthesis starting from L-glutamine provided the desired precursor with high yields. In addition, a simple method for the preparation of [¹⁸F]FPGLN from this easily available precursor was developed using a two-step ¹⁸F-labeling strategy.     

Syntheses and crystal structures of two novel Cu(II) and Co(II) complexes with 3-methyl-4-(p-bromophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole

A new ligand, 3-methyl-4-(p-bromophenyl)-5-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazole (L) and its complexes, trans-[CuL₂(ClO₄)₂] (1) and cis-[CoL₂(H₂O)₂](ClO₄)₂·H₂O·CH₃OH (2), have been synthesized and characterized by UV, IR, electrospray ionization mass spectrum, elemental analyses, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.

New synthesis of 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-aryl-1,3-thiazoles from 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole

Treatment of 4-(1-adamantyl)-1,2,3-thiadiazole with potassium tert-butoxide generated potassium 2-(1-adamantyl)ethynethiolate which reacted with aromatic carboxylic acid chlorides to give unstable S-[2-(1-adamantyl)ethynyl] arenecarbothioates whose acid hydrolysis afforded S-[2-(1-adamantyl)-2-oxoethyl] arenecarbothioates.
