Copper chemistry of beta-diketiminate ligands: monomer/dimer equilibria and a new class of bis(mu-oxo)dicopper compounds

A series of Cu(I) and Cu(II) complexes of a variety of beta-diketiminate ligands (L(-)) with a range of substitution patterns were prepared and characterized by spectroscopic, electrochemical, and, in several cases, X-ray crystallographic methods. Specifically, complexes of the general formula [LCuCl](2) were structurally characterized and their magnetic properties assessed through EPR spectroscopy of solutions and, in one instance, by variable-temperature SQUID magnetization measurements on a powder sample. UV-vis spectra indicated reversible dissociation to 3-coordinate monomers LCuCl in solution at temperatures above -55 degrees C. The Cu(I) complexes LCu(MeCN) exhibited reversible Cu(I)/Cu(II) redox couples with E(1/2) values between +300 and +520 mV versus NHE (cyclic voltammetry, MeCN solutions). These complexes were highly reactive with O(2), yielding intermediates that were identified as rare examples of neutral bis(mu-oxo)dicopper complexes on the basis of their EPR silence, diagnostic UV-vis absorption data, and O-isotope-sensitive resonance Raman spectroscopic features. The structural features of the compounds [LCuCl](2) and LCu(MeCN) as well as the proclivity to form bis(mu-oxo)dicopper products upon oxygenation of the Cu(I) complexes are compared to data previously reported for complexes of more sterically hindered beta-diketiminate ligands (Aboelella, N. W.; Lewis, E. A.; Reynolds, A. M.; Brennessel, W. W.; Cramer, C. J.; Tolman, W. B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 10600. Spencer, D. J. E.; Aboelella, N. W.; Reynolds, A. M.; Holland, P. L.; Tolman, W. B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 2108. Holland, P. L.; Tolman, W. B. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1999, 121, 7270). The observed structural and reactivity differences are rationalized by considering the steric influences of both the substituents on the flanking aromatic rings and those present on the beta-diketiminate backbone.     

Conserved mechanism of copper binding and transfer. A comparison of the copper-resistance proteins PcoC from Escherichia coli and CopC from Pseudomonas syringae

The copper-resistance proteins PcoC from Escherichia coli and CopC from Pseudomonas syringae exhibit 67% sequence identity, but the chemistry reported for PcoC (Peariso, K.; Huffman, D. L.; Penner-Hahn, J. E.; O'Halloran, T. V. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 342-343) was distinctly different from that reported for CopC (Zhang, L.; Koay, M.; Maher, M. J.; Xiao, Z.; Wedd, A. G. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 5834-5850). The source of the inconsistency has been identified, and His1 is confirmed as an unprecedented bidentate ligand in each protein. Access to a bona fide wild-type PcoC protein allowed unequivocal observation of intermediates involved in intermolecular redox copper transfer reactions.     

Interprotein electron transfer in a confined space: uncoupling protein dynamics from electron transfer by sol-gel encapsulation

In this paper, we describe the first observations of photoinitiated interprotein electron transfer (ET) within sol-gels. We have encapsulated three protein-protein complexes, specifically selected because they represent a full range of affinities, are sensitive to different types of dynamic processes, and thus are expected to respond differently to sol-gel encapsulation. The three systems are (i) the [Zn, Fe(3+)L] mixed-metal hemoglobin hybrids, where the alpha(1)-Zn and beta(2)-Fe subunits correspond to a "predocked" protein-protein complex with a crystallographically defined interface (Natan, M. J.; Baxter, W. W.; Kuila, D.; Gingrich, D. J.; Martin, G. S.; Hoffman, B. M. Adv. Chem. Ser. 1991, 228 (Electron-Transfer Inorg., Org., Biol. Syst.), 201-213), (ii) the Zn-cytochrome c peroxidase complex with cytochrome c, [ZnCcP, Fe(3+)Cc], having an intermediate affinity between its partners (Nocek, J. M.; Zhou, J. S.; De Forest, S.; Priyadarshy, S.; Beratan, D. N.; Onuchic, J. N.; Hoffman, B. M. Chem. Rev. 1996, 96, 2459-2489), and (iii) the [Zn-deuteromyoglobin, ferricytochrome b(5)] complex, [ZnDMb, Fe(3+)b(5)], which is loosely bound and highly dynamic (Liang, Z.-X.; Nocek, J.; Huang, K.; Hayes, R. T.; Kurnikov, I. V.; Beratan, D. N.; Hoffman, B. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 6849-6859. Intersubunit ET within the hybrid does not involve second-order processes or subunit rearrangements, and thus is influenced only by perturbations of high-frequency motions coupled to ET. For the latter two complexes, sol-gel encapsulation eliminates second-order processes: protein partners encapsulated as a complex must stay together throughout a photoinitiated ET cycle, while proteins encapsulated alone cannot acquire a partner. It further modulates intracomplex motions of the two partners.     

New reaction simulator "LUMMOX" and its application for prediction of catalytic activities

We developed a new reaction simulator, "LUMMOX." It is an intermolecular interaction analyzer based on the theories of paired interacting orbitals (PIOs) and localized frontier orbitals (LFOs) that have been developed by Fujimoto et al. (Fukui, K.; Koga, N.; Fujimoto, H. J Am Chem Soc 1981, 103, 196; Fujimoto, H.; Koga, N.; Fukui, K. J Am Chem Soc 1981, 103, 7452; Fujimoto, H.; Satoh, S. J Phys Chem 1994, 98, 1436). LUMMOX runs on a Windows PC and displays graphic representation of orbital interactions. Prediction of activities, selectivities, and molecular weight of olefin polymerization catalysts are presented using PIO analysis and LFO calculation. Not only computational chemists but also experimental chemists can easily use this new system for catalyst design or molecular design from the point of view of orbital interaction.     

The effect of heme environment on the hydrogen abstraction reaction of camphor in P450cam catalysis: a QM/MM study

The discrepancies between the published QM/MM studies (Sch?neboom, J. C.; Cohen, S.; Lin, H.; Shaik, S.; Thiel, W. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 4017; Guallar, V.; Friesner, R. A. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 8501) on H-abstraction of camphor in P450cam have largely been resolved. The crystallographic water molecule 903 situated near the oxo atom of Compound I acts as a catalyst for H-abstraction, lowering the barrier by about 4 kcal/mol. Spin density at the A-propionate side chain of heme can occur in the case of incomplete screening but has no major effect on the computed barrier.     

Determinants of cyanuric acid and melamine assembly in water

While the recognition of cyanuric acid (CA) by melamine (M) and their derivatives has been known to occur in both water and organic solvents for some time, analysis of CA/M assembly in water has not been reported (Ranganathan, A.; Pedireddi, V. R.; Rao, C. N. R. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1999, 121, 1752-1753; Mathias, J. P.; Simanek, E. E.; Seto, C. T.; Whitesides, G. M. Macromol. Symp.1994, 77, 157-166; Zerkowski, J. A.; MacDonald, J. C.; Seto, C. T.; Wierda, D. A.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1994, 116, 2382-2391; Mathias, J. P.; Seto, C. T.; Whitesides, G. M. Polym. Prepr.1993, 34, 92-93; Seto, C. T.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1993, 115, 905-916; Zerkowski, J. A.; Seto, C. T.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1992, 114, 5473-5475; Seto, C. T.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc.1990, 112, 6409-6411; Wang, Y.; Wei, B.; Wang, Q. J. Chem. Cryst.1990, 20, 79-84; ten Cate, M. G. J.; Huskens, J.; Crego-Calama, M.; Reinhoudt, D. N. Chem.-Eur. J.2004, 10, 3632-3639). We have examined assembly of CA/M, as well as assembly of soluble trivalent CA and M derivatives (TCA/TM), in aqueous solvent, using a combination of solution phase NMR, isothermal titration and differential scanning calorimetry (ITC/DSC), cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), and synthetic chemistry. While the parent heterocycles coprecipitate in water, the trivalent system displays more controlled and cooperative assembly that occurs at lower concentrations than the parent and yields a stable nanoparticle suspension. The assembly of both parent and trivalent systems is rigorously 1:1 and proceeds as an exothermic, proton-transfer coupled process in neutral pH water. Though CA and M are considered canonical hydrogen-bonding motifs in organic solvents, we find that their assembly in water is driven in large part by enthalpically favorable surface-area burial, similar to what is observed with nucleic acid recognition. There are currently few synthetic systems capable of robust molecular recognition in water that do not rely on native recognition motifs, possibly due to an incomplete understanding of recognition processes in water. This study establishes a detailed conceptual framework for considering CA/M heterocycle recognition in water which enables the future design of molecular recognition systems that function in water.     

Metal ion binding by a bicyclic diamide: deep UV Raman spectroscopic characterization

Deep UV resonance Raman spectroscopy was used for characterizing ligand-metal ion complexes. The obtained results demonstrated a strong intrinsic sensitivity and selectivity of a Raman spectroscopic signature of a bicyclic diamide, a novel chelating agent for lanthanides and actinides (Lumetta, G. J.; Rapko, B. M.; Garza, P. A.; Hay, B. P.; Gilbertson, R. D.; Weakley, T. J. R.; Hutchison, J. E. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 5644). Molecular modeling, which included structure optimization and calculation of Raman frequencies and resonance intensities, allowed for assigning all strong Raman bands of the bicyclic diamide as well as predicting the band shifts observed because of complex formation with metal ions. A comparative analysis of Raman spectra and the results of the molecular modeling could be used for elucidating the structure of complexes in solution.     

Hydrogen bonding in diols and binary diol-water systems investigated using DFT methods. II. Calculated infrared OH-stretch frequencies,force constants,and NMR chemical shifts correlate with hydrogen bond geometry and electron density topology. A reevaluation of geometrical criteria for hydrogen bonding

Although the two hydroxyl groups in 1,2-diols interact as evidenced by NMR and IR spectroscopic shifts, electron density topological analysis has shown a bond critical point (BCP) and atomic bond path to be absent (Klein, R. A.; J Comp Chem 2002, 23, 585-599; J Am Chem Soc 2002, 124, 13931-13937), indicating that no intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed. Here, we demonstrate that small NMR or IR shifts are neither necessarily diagnostic nor sufficient as indicators of hydrogen bond formation; moreover, modified van der Waals atomic radii are needed for estimating maximum nuclear interaction distances and nuclear interpenetration.     

Coordination chemistry at the molybdenum site of sulfite oxidase: redox-induced structural changes in the cysteine 207 to serine mutant

The redox chemistry of the molybdenum site of the C207S mutant of recombinant human sulfite oxidase has been studied via potentiometric titrations employing both electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) as probes of the active site structure. In earlier EXAFS studies, oxidized Cys207Ser enzyme has been shown to possess a novel tri-oxo active site, in which Ser207 does not appear to be a ligand to Mo [George, G. N.; Garrett, R. M.; Prince, R. C.; Rajagopalan, K. V. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 8588-8592]. Redox titrations show that the active site is modified under reducing conditions to a mono-oxo Mo(IV) species, probably with Ser207 ligated to the metal. The Mo(IV) species can be reoxidized to a mono-oxo Mo(V) species still coordinated to Ser207, which in turn can be further reoxidized to yield the initial tri-oxo Mo(VI) structure with loss of Ser207 ligation.     

Nickel complexes of a bulky beta-diketiminate ligand

Nickel(II) chloride forms a complex with tetrahydrofuran, NiCl(2)(THF)(1.5), that can be used to prepare nickel chloride complexes of a bulky beta-diketiminate ligand L(Me). [L(Me)NiCl](2) and L(Me)NiCl(2)LiTHF(2), which have tetrahedral geometries in the solid state, are in equilibrium with three-coordinate L(Me)NiCl. Thermodynamic parameters for the equilibrium between [L(Me)NiCl](2) and L(Me)NiCl are DeltaH = 51(5) kJ/mol and DeltaS = 116(11) J/(mol.K). L(Me)NiCl forms a tetrahydrofuran complex with a binding constant of 1.2(2) M(-)(1) at 21 degrees C. The chloride complexes were used to generate a three-coordinate nickel(II)-amido complex. This amido complex, L(Me)NiN(SiMe(3))(2), is compared with L(Me)MN(SiMe(3))(2) (M = Mn, Fe, Co) (Panda, A.; Stender, M.; Wright, R. J.; Olmstead, M. M.; Klavins, P.; Power, P. P. Inorg. Chem. 2002, 41, 3909-3916). Trends in the metrical parameters of the three-coordinate L(Me)M(II) amido compounds are similar to the trends in three-coordinate L(tBu)M(II) chloride compounds (Holland, P. L.; Cundari, T. R.; Perez, L. L.; Eckert, N. A.; Lachicotte, R. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 14416-14424).     

Radical clock substrates, their C-H hydroxylation mechanism by cytochrome P450, and other reactivity patterns: what does theory reveal about the clocks' behavior?

There is an ongoing and tantalizing controversy regarding the mechanism of a key process in nature, C-H hydroxylation, by the enzyme cytochrome P450 (Auclaire, K.; Hu, Z.; Little, D. M.; Ortiz de Montellano, P. R.; Groves, J. T. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 6020-6027. Newcomb, M.; Aebisher, D.; Shen, R.; Esala, R.; Chandrasena, P.; Hollenberg, P. F.; Coon, M. J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 6064-6065). To definitely resolve this controversy, theory must first address the actual systems that have been used by experiment, and that generated the controversy. This is done in the present paper, which constitutes the first extensive theoretical study of such two experimental systems, trans-2-phenylmethyl-cyclopropane (1) and trans-2-phenyl-iso-propylcyclopropane (4). The theoretical study of these substrates reveals that the only low energy pathway for C-H hydroxylation is the two-state rebound mechanism described originally for methane hydroxylation (Ogliaro, F.; Harris, N.; Cohen, S.; Filatov, M.; de Visser, S. P.; Shaik, S. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 8977-8989). The paper shows that the scenario of a two-state rebound mechanism accommodates much of the experimental data. The computational results provide a good match to experimental results concerning the very different extents of rearrangement for 1 (20-30%) vs 4 (virtually none), lead to product isotope effect for the reaction of 1, in the direction of the experimental result, and predict as well the observed metabolic switching from methyl to phenyl hydroxylation, which occurs upon deuteration of the methyl group. Furthermore, the study reveals that an intimate ion pair species involving an alkyl carbocation derived from 4 gives no rearranged products, again in accord with experiment. This coherent match between theory and experiment cannot be merely accidental; it comes close to being aproof that the actual mechanism of C-H hydroxylation involves the two-state reactivity revealed by theory. Analysis of the rearrangement modes of the carbocations derived from 1 and 4 excludes the participation of free carbocations during the hydroxylation of these substrates. Finally, the mechanistic significance of product isotope effect (different isotope effects for the rearranged and unrearranged alcohol products) is analyzed. It is shown to be a sensitive probe of two-state reactivity; the size of the intrinsic product isotope effect and its direction reveal the structural differences of the hydrogen abstraction transition states in the low-spin vs high-spin reaction manifolds.     

Computational study on the mechanism and selectivity of C-H bond activation and dehydrogenative functionalization in the synthesis of rhazinilam

The key platinum mediated C-H bond activation and functionalization steps in the synthesis of (-)-rhazinilam (Johnson, J. A.; Li, N.; Sames, D. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 6900) were investigated using the M06 and B3LYP density functional approximation methods. This computational study reveals that ethyl group dehydrogenation begins with activation of a primary C-H bond in preference to a secondary C-H bond in an insertion/methane elimination pathway. The C-H activation step is found to be reversible while the methane elimination (reductive elimination) transition state controls rate and diastereoselectivity. The chiral oxazolinyl ligand induces ethyl group selectivity through stabilizing weak interactions between its phenyl group (or cyclohexyl group) and the carboxylate group. After C-H activation and methane elimination steps, Pt-C bond functionalization occurs through β-hydride elimination to give the alkene platinum hydride complex.     

Stabilization of plutonium(III) in the Preyssler polyoxometalate

The Na(+) ion encapsulated within the Preyssler heteropolyoxoanion, [NaP5W30O110](14-), was exchanged with Pu(III) under hydrothermal conditions to obtain [Pu(III)P5W30O110](12-) (abbreviated [PuPA](12-)) with hybrid electrochemical properties resulting from the combination of the key redox behaviors of the Pu cation and the P-W-O anion. The electroanalytical chemistry of this two-center, multielectron redox system in a 1 M HCl electrolyte shows that Pu(III) is oxidized to Pu(IV) at the half-wave potential, E(1/2), of +0.960 V versus Ag/AgCl, which is 0.197 V more positive than the corresponding electrode potential for the Pu(III) aqua ion also in 1 M HCl, indicating the stabilization of the trivalent Pu cation by its encapsulation in the Preyssler polyoxometalate (POM). This effect is uncommon in actinide-POM chemistry, wherein electrode potential shifts of the opposite nature (to more negative values), leading to the stabilization of the tetravalent ions by complexation, are renowned. Moreover, in cyclic voltammetry measurements of the Pu(III) aqua ion and [PuPA](12-), the peak currents, i(p), for the one-electron Pu(III)/Pu(IV) processes show different dependencies with the scan rate, nu. The former shows proportionality with nu(1/2), indicating freely diffusing species, whereas the latter shows proportionality with nu, indicating a surface-confined one. The first of the five successive two-electron, W-centered reduction processes in [PuPA](12-) occurs at E(1/2) = -0.117 V versus Ag/AgCl, which is 1.077 V less than the E(1/2) for the Pu(III)/Pu(IV) oxidation, thereby providing an experimental, electrochemical measure of the highest occupied molecular orbital/lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy gap, which compares well with values previously obtained by density-functional theory, complete active space-self consistent field, and post-Hartree-Fock calculations for a series of M(n+)-exchanged systems, [MPA](n-15) for 1 < or = n < or = 4 (Fernandez, J. A.; Lopez, X.; Bo, C.; de Graff, C.; Baerends, E. J.; Poblet, J. M. J. Am Chem. Soc. 2007, 129, 12244-12253). It was not possible to prepare the Np-exchanged Preyssler anion in the manner of [PuPA](12-), because of the instability of tri- and tetravalent Np to oxidation and the formation of the neptunyl(V) ion, which also could not be exchanged for Na(+).     

Do spin state changes matter in organometallic chemistry? A computational study

Spin changes occur often in organometallic chemistry, and their effect on kinetics is not well understood. We report computations on the singlet and triplet potential energy surfaces of several processes of this type and show that the topology of the individual surfaces, as well as of the crossing regions between them, can be used to rationalize the observed reactivity in all cases. In particular, the slow addition of dihydrogen to W[N(CH(2)CH(2)NSiMe(3))(3)]H (Schrock, R. R.; Shih, K. Y.; Dobbs, D. A.; Davis, W. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 6609) is shown to be a "spin-blocked" reaction with a high barrier due to the crossing between reactant triplet and product singlet surfaces. In contrast, addition of CO to TpCo(CO) (Detrich, J. L.; Reinaud, O. M.; Rheingold, A. L.; Theopold, K. H. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 11745) is fast because the triplet and singlet surfaces cross at low energy. Particular care is taken to use DFT methods which are in adequate agreement with experimental and high-level computational energetics for these systems.     

Red light in chemiluminescence and yellow-green light in bioluminescence: color-tuning mechanism of firefly, Photinus pyralis, studied by the symmetry-adapted cluster-configuration interaction method

The yellow-green luminescence from firefly luciferase has long been understood to be the emission from enol-oxyluciferin. However, a recent experiment showed that an oxyluciferin constrained to the keto form produced a yellow-green emission in luciferase (Branchini, B. R.; Murtiashaw, M. H.; Magyar, R. A.; Portier, N. C.; Ruggiero, M. C.; Stroh, J. G. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 2112-2113). The present quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical and symmetry-adapted cluster-configuration interaction (SAC-CI) theoretical study supports the keto-form to be the yellow-green bioluminescence state in luciferase. We give the theoretically optimized structure of the excited state of oxyluciferin within luciferase, which gives luminescence calculated by the SAC-CI method that is close to the experimental value. Coulombic interactions with neighboring residues, in particular Arg218 and the phosphate group of AMP, play important roles in the color-tuning mechanism. Transformation to the enol form is energetically unfavorable in the luciferase environment. The twisted intramolecular charge-transfer (TICT) state is meta stable and would be easily relaxed to the co-planer structure. Further analyses were performed to verify the spectral-tuning mechanism based on the protonation state and the resonance structure of oxyluciferin.     

Synthesis and aqueous solution properties of a well-defined thermo-responsive schizophrenic diblock copolymer

We report only the second example of a thermo-responsive 'schizophrenic' diblock copolymer surfactant: unlike the original (meth)acrylamide-based example reported by Laschewsky and co-workers (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2002, 124, 3787), this new methacrylate-based diblock copolymer is near-monodisperse, readily synthesized in high yield and exhibits a broad temperature range between the two micelle transitions.     

Two-state reactivity in alkane hydroxylation by non-heme iron-oxo complexes

Density functional theory is used to explore the mechanisms of alkane hydroxylation for four synthetic non-heme iron(IV)-oxo complexes with three target substrates (Kaizer, J.; Klinker, E. J.; Oh, N. Y.; Rohde; J.-U.; Song, W. J.; Stubna, A.; Kim, J.; Münck, E.; Nam, W.; Que, L., Jr. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2004, 126, 472-473; Rohde, J.-U.; Que, L., Jr. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2005, 44, 2255-2258.). The iron-oxo reagents possess triplet ground states and low-lying quintet excited states. The set of experimental and theoretical reactivity trends can be understood if the reactions proceed on the two spin states, namely two-state reactivity (TSR); an appropriate new model is presented. The TSR model makes testable predictions: (a) If crossing to the quintet state occurs, the hydroxylation will be effectively concerted; however, if the process transpires only on the triplet surface, stepwise hydroxylation will occur, and side products derived from radical intermediates would be observed (e.g., loss of stereochemistry). (b) In cases of crossing en route to the quintet transition state, one expects kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) typical of tunneling. (c) In situations where the two surfaces contribute to the rate, one expects intermediate KIEs and radical scrambling patterns that reflect the two processes. (d) Solvent effects on these reactions are expected to be very large.     

Can a single oxidant with two spin states masquerade as two different oxidants? A study of the sulfoxidation mechanism by cytochrome p450

Density functional calculations were performed on the sulfoxidation reaction by a model compound I (Cpd I) of cytochrome P450. By contrast to previous alkane hydroxylation studies, which exhibit a dominant low-spin (LS) pathway, the sulfoxidation follows a dominant high-spin (HS) reaction. Thus, competing hydroxylation and sulfoxidation processes as observed for instance by Jones et al. (Volz, T. J.; Rock, D. A.; Jones, J. P. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124, 9724) are the result of a two-state reactivity scenario, whereby the hydroxylation originates from the LS pathway and the sulfoxidation from the HS pathway. In this manner, two spin states of a single oxidant (Cpd I) can be disguised as two different oxidants. The calculations rule out the possibility that a second oxidant (the ferric peroxide, Cpd 0 species) interferes in the observed results of Jones et al.     

The phenylnitrene rearrangement in the inner phase of a hemicarcerand

The photochemistry of phenyl azide 1 and 13C-labeled phenyl azide 13C-1 incarcerated inside a hemicarcerand 4 was investigated. Low-temperature photolysis of hemicarceplex 41 and 413C-1 yields incarcerated 1-azacyclohepta-1,2,4,6-tetraene 42 and 413C-2 (18-50%), respectively, which were characterized by low-temperature FT-IR and 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy. After correction for the hemicarcerand-induced upfield shift, the 13C chemical shifts of incarcerated 13C-2 compare very well (Deltadelta 相似文献
