The spectroscopic and photophysical properties of [Tb ⊂ 2.2.1]³⁺ and [Sm ⊂ 2.2.1]³⁺ in aqueous solution and the solid state are reported. The role played by multiphonon emission and non-radiative deactivatfon via the excited configuration state in determining the observed luminescence properties is examined.     

α-Fluorination of 6-phenylsulfinyl-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-3-one and synthesis of 2′-fluoro substituted carbovir

Fluorination of phenylsulfinyl bicycloamide using molecular fluorine proceeded preferentially with inversion of the carbon atom having the sulfinyl group to afford α-fluorinated sulfonyl bicycloamide in fair yield. The fluorinated sulfonyl bicycloamide was converted to 2′-fluoro substituted carbovir via reductive desulfonylchlorination.     

Synthesis of bridgehead-substituted azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane and -[3.3.1]nonane derivatives for the elaboration of α7 nicotinic ligands

Azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane and -[3.3.1]nonane scaffolds (X = Cl, Br) containing a pyridinyl substituent at the bridgehead position were prepared via two complementary chemical pathways, either by the transformation of a methoxy group into a synthetically valuable chlorine atom at the C-6 position of the pyridine moiety or by means of a regioselective C-6 deprotonation/halogenation process of the pyridine moiety exemplified by chlorination or bromination. These newly generated scaffolds were then engaged in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions to provide α7 nicotinic ligands. Both chemical series were evaluated in vitro for their affinity at α7 nicotinic receptors, revealing nanomolar potency with significant selectivity over the α4β2 nicotinic subtype. These approaches offer a general access to these α7 nicotinic scaffolds and ligands.     

Self-assembly of Novel Hetero[3]rotaxane,[2]Rotaxanes and [2]Catenane

One linear template 13 and one cyclophane template 15, both incorporating two electron rich 1,4-dialkoxybenzene units and one diamide unit, have been synthesized. By utilizing donor-acceptor interaction and/or intermolecular hydrogen bonding assembling principles, one novel hetero[3]rotaxane 22·4Cl, possessing one neutral and one tetracationic ring components, has been synthesized from 13, through neutral [2]rotaxane 21 as intermediate.

Synthesis and structure of oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines of an expanded π-electron-deficient cavity and their interactions with anions

Novel macrocyclic anion receptors based on the principle of anion-π interactions were reported. By means of both post-macrocyclization modification protocol and the stepwise fragment coupling approach, functionalized oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazines bearing two other electron-deficient (hetero)aromatic rings on the lower rim were efficiently synthesized. The resulting oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine macrocyclesadopt 1,3-alternate conformation, yielding therefore an expanded electron-deficient cavity or space consisting of two triazine rings and two appending aromatic rings. Spectroscopic titration study showed the selective interaction of the pentafluorophenyl-substituted oxacalix[2]arene[2]triazine with azide and fluoride in solution with the binding constants (K(1:1)) ranging from 1.33 × 10(3) to 3.52 × 10(3) M(-1).

Stereoselective [3+2] cycloadditions of trimethylenemethane (TMM) to the exocyclic CO and CN double bonds of (1S,3EZ,4R)-3-arylimino-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ones gave the corresponding spiro[bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,2′-furan] and spiro[bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-3,2′-pyrrolidine] derivatives. Further stereoselective reductions of the CN or CO bond in these cycloadducts furnished new chiral amines, diamines, and a new aminoalcohol. All cycloadditions and reductions of the CN double bonds took place from the less hindered endo-face of the (1S,3EZ,4R)-3-arylimino-1,7,7-trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ones, exclusively, thus giving the corresponding products in 100% de.

Rearrangements of 6-methoxycarbonyl 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enes under prévost's reaction conditions

The rearrangement of 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enes to 2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives, when reacted with iodine and silver acetate, provides further insight into the migratory preferences of alkyl groups involved in Wagner-Meerwein 1,2-bond shifts in unbiased situations.     

The [2?+?2?+?2] mechanisms of trimerization of three ethynes and monosilaethylenes

The mechanisms of [2?+?2?+?2] reactions of three ethynes and monosilaethylenes to form benzene and 1,3,5-trisilacyclohexane were studied by ab initio MO methods. The reaction mechanisms were analyzed by configuration interaction/localized molecular orbital/CASSCF calculations. Although the [2?+?2?+?2] reaction of ethyne is typically ??homologous?? concerted, that of monosilaethylene is polarized (ionic-cyclic) one-step reaction. In addition, the aromaticity along the intrinsic reaction coordinate pathway was studied using the index of deviation from aromaticity. Although the transition state of trimerization of ethyne does not have an aromatic nature for the ??- and ??-bonds formation system, the crossing point of the ??-bond formation and ??-bond breaking shows an aromatic nature.

Formation pathways and structure—Property interrelationship of 3-imino-1-methyl-5,5-dialkyl-4,7,7-tricyano-2-oxabicyclo-[2.2.1]heptane derivatives

The problems of the structure—property interrelationship of 3-imino-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane derivatives are discussed on the basis of x-ray diffraction studies (XDS). A pathway for the formation of the bicyclic compounds is proposed, and the realization of spirans in the reaction of sym-tetracyanoethane with conjugated cyclic systems containing s-cis C=C and C=O fragments is substantiated. The factors responsible for the syn orientation of the oxygen atom and the N-substituent of the imino group are analyzed. It is shown that a change in the steric hindrance in the bicyclic compounds leads to a change in the conformation of the latter. The reasons for the shortening of the C_sp3-C_sp3, C_sp3-C_sp and C=N exo bonds and the correlation of the XDS and IR spectroscopic data are examined. From the XDS data for N-bromo-substituted imines, a model for Br⁺...NC electrophilic attack was proposedCommunication 16 from the series Chemistry of 1,1,2,2-tetracyanoethane.

Synthesis and structures of mercury and cadmium complexes: [Ph4Sb] 2 + [Hg2I6]2−·Ph2Hg, [Ph4Sb] 2 + [E2I6]2− (E = Hg, Cd), and [Ph4Sb] 2 + [Hg4I10]2−

The reaction of pentaphenylantimony with mercury iodide affords the ionic complex [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₂I₆]^2?·Ph₂Hg (I). The [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₂I₆]^2? (II) and [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Cd₂I₆]^2? (III) complexes are synthesized from tetraphenylantimony iodide and mercury and cadmium iodides. The [Ph₄Sb] ₂ ⁺ [Hg₄I₁₀]^2? complex (IV) is prepared from tetraphenylantimony 2,4-dimethylbenzenesulfonate and mercury iodide. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the Sb atom in the [Ph₄Sb]⁺ cations of complex I has virtually ideal tetrahedral coordination (the CSbC angles are 108.09°–109.64°). In the central square fragment Hg₂I₂ of the [Hg₂I₆]^2? anion, the Hg-I_br bond lengths are 2.825 and 3.075 Å, and the terminal iodine atoms are more strongly bonded to the mercury atoms (Hg-I_term 2.691 and 2.700 Å). The [Cd₂I₆]^2? anion in complex III has a similar structure (the Cd-I_bridg and Cd-I_term distances are 2.865, 2.872 and 2.723, 2.748 Å, respectively). The anions in complex IV are joined by I…Hg (3.651 Å) and I…I (4.058 Å) interactions into an infinite dimeric network.

Regioselective rearrangement of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-aminyl radicals: first synthesis of 2,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-enes and their conversion into 5-(2-aminoethyl)-2,3,4-trihydroxypyrrolidines, new inhibitors of α-mannosidases

Enantiomerically pure 2,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-2-ene derivatives (+)-5 and (−)-5 have been obtained from 2-azido-3-tosyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes (+)-1 and (−)-2 and their enantiomers, by ring expansion under radical conditions. Compounds (+)-5 and (−)-5 were transformed into hemiaminals 9 ((3S,4R,5R)- and 10 ((3R,4S,5S)-5-(2-aminoethyl)-2,3,4-trihydroxypyrrolidine) that are good inhibitors of α-mannosidases.     

Synthesis and characterisation of [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato)-stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dmit)3], [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-one-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dmio)3] and [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-selenolato)stannate]2−, [Q]2[Sn(dsit)3], complexes: Analysis of the structural variations of the [Sn(dmit)3]2− and [Sn(dmio)3]2− dianions

[Tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]²⁻, [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₅)₃], [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-one-4,5-dithiolato)stannate]²⁻, [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₄O)₃], and [tris(1,3-dithiole-2-thione-4,5-diselenolato)stannate]²⁻ [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₃Se₂)₃], complexes, have been synthesised and characterised. Crystal structure determinations of [Q]₂[Sn(C₃S₅)₃] (Q=1,4-dimethylpyridinium, monoclinic and orthorhombic forms; NMe₄, NEt₄, and PPh₄) and [NEt₄]₂[Sn(C₃S₄O)₃] revealed variations in the overall dianion structures. The geometry about tin in each case is essentially octahedral with the chelate bite angles in the range 80.7(5)–87.45(4)°: the range of Sn–S distances is 2.5207(18)–2.571(17) Å. A statistical analysis, carried out on the crystal structure data for the six complexes, indicated that the most critical factors in controlling the overall shape of the dianion were the distances of the Sn atom from the dithiolate ligand planes [Sn–OOP]. Interanionic S⋯S interactions, within the sum of the van der Waals’ radii for two S atoms, are affected by the size of the cation, Q; the secondary connectivity is 3-dimensional for the smallest cations, Q=1,4-dimethylpyridinium and NMe₄, in chains for the somewhat larger cation, NEt₄ and is absent for the still larger, PPh₄ cation.
