Préparation de phosphonates de sucres ramifiés par addition nucléophile conjuguée. Communication préliminaire

Preparation of unsaturated sugars phosphonates using nucleophilic conjugate addition Different types of phosphorus nucleophiles underwent conjugate addition reaction with one of the branched-chain sugars 4, 5 or 11 the addition taking place either on the endo or the exo face of the furanose ring (or on both faces in the case of 11 ). The configuration at C(3) of these new phosphorus-bearing types of sugars as well as the configuration at the phosphorus atom of the cyclic phosphinates 9 and 10 was established by NMR. (³J_P,H–C(2), ³J_P,C(1)). Small amounts (7%) of the spiro enol phosphonate 16 were formed when 11 reacted with trimethyl phosphite.     

Migration du groupe éthoxycarbonyle dans la transposition de Wagner-Meerwein

Ethoxycarbonyl group migration in the Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement . 13 β-Hydroxy-esters have been treated with P₂O₅ in benzene at 80°. Olefin-forming dehydration, when possible, was found to be the main reaction. When this is excluded, tertiary or benzylic hydroxy-esters react in a manner most easily explained by migration of the COOEt group, thus avoiding the formation of α-carbonyl-carbenium ions. On the other hand, in primary hydroxy-esters (incapable of direct olefin formation), phenyl and methyl groups migrate in preference to COOEt, indicating in this case a concerted reaction.     

Le phosphate de cobalt et de lithium à valence mixte Li4+xCo2−x(P2O7)2 (x = 0,03): étude structurale et analyse de distribution de charge

The title compound, namely lithium cobalt(II/III) bis(diphosphate), Li_4.03Co_1.97(P₂O₇)₂, is a new mixed‐valent lithium/cobalt(II/III) phosphate. Three metal sites out of seven are occupied simultaneously by Li⁺ and Co^II/III ions. This disorder was established both from an analysis of the atomic displacement ellipsoids and Li/Co—O bond distances, and by means of a charge‐distribution (CHARDI) model, which provides satisfactory agreement on the computed charges (Q) for all the cations.     

Etude par Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire de dérivés phosphores. Etude de dithiaphospholanes-1,3,2

The proton NMR spectral analysis of eight different 1,3,2-dithiaphospholanes with various groups attached to the phosphorus atom has been performed. The AA′BB′X (X phosphorus atom) system shows that the two ³J(P? S? C? H) coupling constants have a small magnitude and opposite signs. Using the ³J(HH) values, the torsion about the C₄—C₅ bond has been evaluated. The conformational requirements in the two isomers of the 2 phenyl-4-methyl-1,3,2-dithiaphospholane are also discussed.     

Constitution moléculaire d' α,ω-difluoro-μ-oxo-poly(méthylphosphanoxy diméthylsilanes): Mise en evidence d'une forte tendance à l'alternance régulière des centres siliciés et phosphorés à l'equilibre

The purpose of this study was to gain a closer knowledge of the molecular constitution of the linear fluorine-terminated oxygen-bridged methylphosphanoxy/dimethylsilane polymers, for example, to find evidence for preferential sorting (or, on the contrary, for random scattering) of the substituents and building units. The title polymers were prepared by reaction of MeP(O)F₂ with cyclic dimethylsiloxanes (Me₂SiO)_n (n = 3 or 4). An equilibrium is reached in the redistribution of fluorine vs. bridging oxygen atoms among the phosphorus and silicon-based centers, and among the resulting building units, after about 2 months at 120°C. The excellent resolution of the ¹H-NMR spectra (Fig. 2), even at 60 MHz, allowed identification of seventeen different fragments (Table II). Nineteen equilibrated samples of varied overall compositions (R = F/(Si + P); R′ = P/(Si + P)) have been analyzed (Table IV), and their molecular constitution is described by a set of four basic constants. The fundamental features which govern the structure of these polymers are as follows. (a) The regular (Si-O-P) alternation of the two different centers, which is thermodynamically favored, as shown by the linkage constant K₀ = [Si-O-Si][P-O-P]/[Si-O-P]² ? 10⁴, which describes the sorting of the silicon and phosphorus atoms on the bridging oxygens, and which deviates by four orders of magnitude from its random value of 0.25. (b) A somewhat surprising lack of preferential distribution of fluorine and oxygen between the two centers (K_I = [MeP(O)F₂][Me₂SiO_1/2]₂/[Me₂SiF₂]-[MeP(O)(O_1/2)₂]) differs little from (a), which contrasts with the preferential affinity of fluorine for silicon and oxygen for phosphorus (K_I ? 10⁷) that was found when F atoms and OCH₃ groups were exchanged between the same centers. (c) The sorting of the fluorine atoms and oxygen bridges on each center, to give neso molecules and the terminal and medium building units, resulting in a slight preference for the formation of the terminal units, as expressed by      

Degradation thermique et etude vibrationnelle de MII(NH4)4(P3O9)2x4H2O(M II=Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+)

We have studied the thermal behaviour under atmospheric pressure of isotypic tetrahydrate cyclotriphosphates M^II(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O (M ^II=Cu, Ni and Co), between 25 and 1400°C, by X-ray diffraction, thermal analyses (TG and DTA) and infrared spectrometry. This study shows that the series of the compounds M^II(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O (M ^II=Cu, Ni and Co) after elimination of water, in two different stages, and ammonia leads, at 400°C to cyclotetraphosphate M₂ ^IIP₄O₁₂ crystallized and to a thermal residue with a formula H₄P₄O₁₂ which undergoes under a thermal degradation by evolving water and pentoxide phosphorus. The kinetic characteristics of the dehydration and elimination of ammonia have been determinated. The vibrational spectra of Cu(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O were examined and interpreted, in the domain of the valency frequencies, on the basis of the crystalline structure of its isotypic compound Co(NH₄)₄(P₃O₉)₂x4H₂O whose cycle has the site symmetry C₁, of our results of the calculation of the IR frequencies and the successive isotopic substitutions of the equivalent atoms (3P, 3Oi and 6Oe belonging to the P₃Oi₃Oe₆ ring) of the P₃O₉ ³⁻ cycle with high symmetry D_3h. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthèse et stabilité sous irradiation électronique d'une céramique Ba1,16Al2,32Ti5,68O16 de structure hollandite envisagée pour le confinement de césium radioactif

Synthesis and stability under electron irradiation of a hollandite structure-type Ba_1.16Al_2.32Ti_5.68O₁₆ ceramic envisaged for radioactive cesium immobilization. Hollandite structure-type Ba_xCs_y(M,Ti)₈O₁₆ (x + y < 2, M trivalent cation) ceramics are currently envisaged as a specific waste form for radioactive cesium immobilization. In order to simulate the effect of cesium β decay on this kind of matrix, the structural modifications and the paramagnetic point defects induced by external electron irradiations near room temperature in a simplified Ba_1.16Al_2.32Ti_5.68O₁₆ hollandite composition were studied mainly by EPR and NMR. Modifications of Al³⁺ and Ti⁴⁺ ions' environment were observed and are due to both the formation of oxygen vacancies and to barium ions displacement. Electron (Ti³⁺) and hole (O₂⁻) centres were observed. The stability of these centres was good at room temperature but thermal treatments performed between 50 and 850 °C generated new paramagnetic defects originating from previous defects. These new defects correspond to titanyl-type Ti³⁺ ions located on grain surface and to oxygen aggregates in their bulk.     

Fe2PO5, un phosphate de fer de valence mixte. Préparation et études structurale, mössbauer et magnétique

Fe₂PO₅ is prepared from diverse components of the Fe---P---O system at 900°C in sealed silica tubes in vacuum. The study of a single crystal shows an orthorhombic cell, space group Pnma, with a = 7.378, B = 6.445, C = 7.471 Å and Z = 4. The structure is determined through direct methods and Fourier syntheses and refined to R = 0.027. The phosphorus fills isolated tetrahedra. The Fe^II and Fe^III ions are ordered in distorted octahedra: the octahedra surrounding Fe^II build strings parallel to the b axis and share edges; the octahedra containing Fe^III are connected on both sides of these strings alternatively with the PO₄ tetrahedra. The two types of octahedra share one face. Such an arrangement strongly recalls two out of the three Al₂SiO₅ polymorphs, namely, the kyanite and sillimanite. The Mössbauer spectroscopy exhibits a magnetic transition at 220 K. Below, the spectrum shows a six-line hyperfine pattern for Fe^III and an eight-lines one for Fe^II with a rather weak hyperfine field; above, there are two well differentiated doublets, confirming the absence of electronic charge transfer at room temperature. The magnetic susceptibility, recorded from 90 to 300 K, is typically that of an antiferromagnetic compound with C_M = 7.12, θ_p = −350 K and T_N 250 K. The magnetic interactions are discussed. The electronic localization is explained through structural and crystal field considerations; the electrostatic potential difference between the Fe^II and Fe^III sites is calculated.     

Identification de stérols à chaînes latérales courtes dans l′éponge Damiriana hawaiiana

Identification of short side chain sterols in the sponge Damiriana hawaiiana The steroidal composition of the sponge Damiriana hawaiiana is examined. Twenty-seven components are identified. In addition to the C₂₆-C₂₉, Δ⁵-mono and diunsaturated sterols, the sponge contains sterols without side-chain: androsta-5, 16-dien-3β-ol( 1 ), androst-5-en-3β-ol( 2 ); sterols with a non-functionalized side-chain consisting of two, three, four, five and six carbon atoms: pregna-5, 20-dien-3β-ol( 5 ), pregn-5-en-3β-ol( 6 ), 23, 24-bisnor-chola-5, 20-dien-3β-ol( 7 ), 23, 24-bisnor-chol-5-en-3β-ol( 8 ), 24-nor-chol-5-en-3β-ol( 10 ), chol-5-en-3β-ol( 11 ), 26, 27-bisnor-cholest-5-en-3β-ol( 12 ), and sterols possessing a short oxygenated side-chain such as 3β-hydroxy-androst-5-en-17-one( 3 ), androst-5-en-3β, 17β-diol( 4 ) and 3β-hydroxy-26, 27-bisnor-22-trans-cholesta-5, 22-dien-24-one( 14 ). The probable biological or dietary origin rather than artifact production of these hitherto undescribed components from marine sources is supported by their relatively high concentration and their relative proportions, both very different from those expected for autoxidation.     

Etude spectroscopique du role des liaisons PF et PO pontes dans les composes oxyfluores du phosphore V. Cas de P2O3F4 et de K2P2O5F2.

The compounds P₂O₃F₄ and K₂P₂O₅F₂ have been studied by vibrational spectroscopy. From the shifts of the symmetric vibration of the terminal PO bonds it appears that the molecular structure contracts as the number of PO (bridged) and/or PF bonds increases. The changes occur at the expense of PO terminal bonds. In these tetrahedral phosphorus (V) compounds the PO (bridged) and PF bonding have a similar role, and the same phenomenon occurs in sulfur VI oxide fluoride compounds.     

Synthèse électrochimique du cycle époxydique. Communication préliminaire

The polarographic behaviour of ditosyloxy alkanes TsO(CH₂)_nOTs in aprotic medium suggests that intramolecular cyclisation takes place after reductive cleavage of a single SO₂? O bond at the dropping electrode. This hypothesis was verified by controlled potential electrolysis of the lower homologues at a mercury cathode. High yields of epoxy compounds are obtained by this method.     

Application of <Superscript>31</Superscript>P NMR for added polyphosphate determination in pork meat

Application of ³¹P NMR for qualitative and quantitative determination of added phosphorus compounds in meat samples is described. Furthermore, usefulness of the proposed method for monitoring of poly- and pyrophosphates hydrolysis in meat is discussed. Calibration curves based on the ³¹P resonance line areas were elaborated for Na₃P₃O₉, Na₅P₃O₁₀, Na₂H₂P₂O₇, and K₄P₂O₇ resulting in linearity (R ² = 0.9976, 0.9953, 0.9974, and 0.9524, respectively), detection limits (DL from 0.0018 mol L⁻¹ for Na₃P₃O₉ to 0.0070 mol L⁻¹ for K₄P₂O₇), and quantification limits (QL from 0.0060 mol L⁻¹ for Na₃P₃O₉ to 0.0234 mol L⁻¹ for K₄P₂O₇). The developed procedure was applied for laboratory prepared meat samples and compared with the standard UV-VIS method. The minimal sample pretreatment, obtained within-day precision (CV ≤ 2.0 %) and accuracy (as recovery ≥ 95 %) suggest ³¹P NMR as an alternative method of phosphorus determination in food analysis.     

Sur la Stoechiométrie de la Variété Allotropique γ de Bi2O3

On the Stoichiometry of the Allotropic Variation γ-Bi₂O₃ The study of the solid solutions Bi₁₂[BBi□_1/5]O₂₀ (B^+V = As, V) with 0 ? x ? 0,80 leads for x = 0,77 to a phase whose cubic centered symmetry and parameter (10.255 Å) correspond to those previously announced for γ-Bi₂O₃. The présence of impurities seems required to obtain such a phase whose theoretical stoichiometry should be Bi₁₂[Bi□_1/5]O₂₀ i. e. Bi₂O_3,125.     

Etude conformationnelle par RMN de phosphines ethyleniques cis et trans: Influence de l'orientation du doublet libre du phosphore sur le couplage 2JP-H transmis a travers un carbone sp

NMR spectra of variously substituted cis and trans ethylene phosphines have been taken at different temperatures. When a bulky group is bound to the double bond, the cis phosphines adopt a preferred conformation, but a conformational equilibrium applies to some trans phosphines.The calculated values of ²P_P-H for the different conformers are dependent on the phosphorus lone pair orientation: ²J_P-H is large and positive when the CH bond and the lone pair direction are parallel; it is small and may become negative when these directions are antiparallel.     

Composés d'addition des halogénures de niobium(V) et de tantale(V). VII. Composés du chlorure de niobium(V) avec l'oxytrichlorure et l'oxytribromure de phosphore

The adducts NbCl₅ · OPCl₃ and NbCl₅ · OPBr₃ are observed in chloroform solution by ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy. The enthalpy and entropy of activation for the exchange reaction between bulk and coordinated OPCl₃ are found equal to 17 ± 3 kcal/mole and 18 ± 10 cal/°mole. The stability of NbCl₅ · OPCl₃ is compared on a semi-quantitative basis to the stability of other adducts NbCl₅ · OPR₃ (R = Br, OMe, NMe₂).     

Beiträge zur Chemie von Phosphorverbindungen mit Adamantanstruktur. XI. Über Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Phosphoroxidsulfiden der allgemeinen Formel P4O10−nSn (n = 2−9)

Contributions to the Chemistry of Phosphorus Compounds with Adamantane-like Structure. XI. Preparation and Properties of Phosphorus Oxide Sulfides of the General Formula P₄S_10?n S_n (n = 2?9) The reaction of P₄O₁₀ with P₄S₁₀ yields a mixture of phosphorus oxide sulfides of the general formula P₄O_10?nS_n. Depending on the molar ratio P₄O₁₀: P₄S₁₀ in the starting product different amounts of the individual phosphorus oxide sulfides occuring in this reorganization product are formed. Besides the well-known P₄O₆S₄ the compounds P₄O₇S₃, P₄O₅S₅, P₄O₄S₆, P₄O₃S₇, P₄O₂S₈, and P₄OS₉ occuring for the first time were obtained by fractional distillation or crystallization. The compound P₄O₈S₂ was identified by N.M.R. spectroscopy.     

Poly[[di‐μ2‐aqua‐di‐μ5‐croconato(2–)‐nickel(II)dipotassium(I)] tetra­hydrate]

In the title compound, {[K₂Ni(C₅O₅)₂(H₂O)₂]·4H₂O}_n, the Ni atom lies on an inversion centre. Two inversion‐related croconate [4,5‐dihydroxy‐4‐cyclo­pentene‐1,2,3‐trionate(2−)] ligands and an Ni^II ion form a near‐planar symmetrical [Ni(C₅O₅)₂]²⁻ moiety. The near‐square coordination centre of the moiety is then extended to an octa­hedral core by vertically bonding two water mol­ecules in the [Ni(C₅O₅)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁻ coordination anion. The crystal structure is characterized by a three‐dimensional network, involving strong K⋯O⋯K binding, K⋯O—Ni binding and hydrogen bonding.     

Sur quelques Nouvelles Phases Oxyfluorées de Structure “Bronzes Oxygénés de Tungstène Quadratiques”

On Some New Oxide Fluoride Phases of Tetragonal Tungsten Bronze Structure Six new oxide fluorides of tetragonal tungsten bronze type structure have been obtained by partial substitution of oxygen by fluorine in the ABCNb₅O₁₅ compounds (A = Ca, Sr, Ba; B = Ca, Sr, Ba; C = Na, K): CaK₂Nb₅O₁₄F, SrK₂Nb₅O₁₄F, SrKNaNb₅O₁₄F, BaK₂Nb₅O₁₄F, BaKNaNb₅O₁₄F and BaNa₂Nb₅O₁₄F. An investigation on Sr_2?xK_1+xNb₅O_15?xF_x and Ba_2?xNa_1+xNb₅O_15?xF_x solid solutions characterizes ferroelectric behaviour. Replacement of oxygen by fluorine decreases the Curie temperature, but for a small oxygenfluorine substitution rate an increase of the dielectric constant is observed.     

Environnement tetraedrique de l'ion Cu et structure fine du seuil d'absorption K dans quelques chromites: application à l'étude d'oxydes à valence mixte

Copper zinc and copper manganese spinel chromites are studied using neutron diffraction. Cr³⁺ ions in tetrahedral environments are observed in CuCr₂O₄ and Cu_0.25Zn_0.75Cr₂O₄. These results leads to a new interpretation of the optical spectra (drs). The measurement of X-ray absorption fine structure of copper in the near edge rayon (Xanes) have been obtained using the Lure synchrotron radiation sources (Orsay, France). The spectra of Cu²⁺ in the tetrahedral environment of a quadratic or cubic matrix are characterized by the splitting of the main peak in the range 18–23 eV above the 1s → 3d transition. The X-ray absorption spectroscopy reveals the two oxidation states of copper in mixed oxides such as CuCrMnO₄. The copper(I) 1s → 4s transition is observed as a shoulder located at 10 eV on the slope of the main peak. A finer structure appears in the derivative spectrum.     

Electrospun V2O5 Nanostructures with Controllable Morphology as High‐Performance Cathode Materials for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Porous V₂O₅ nanotubes, hierarchical V₂O₅ nanofibers, and single‐crystalline V₂O₅ nanobelts were controllably synthesized by using a simple electrospinning technique and subsequent annealing. The mechanism for the formation of these controllable structures was investigated. When tested as the cathode materials in lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs), the as‐formed V₂O₅ nanostructures exhibited a highly reversible capacity, excellent cycling performance, and good rate capacity. In particular, the porous V₂O₅ nanotubes provided short distances for Li⁺‐ion diffusion and large electrode–electrolyte contact areas for high Li⁺‐ion flux across the interface; Moreover, these nanotubes delivered a high power density of 40.2 kW kg^?1 whilst the energy density remained as high as 201 W h kg^?1, which, as one of the highest values measured on V₂O₅‐based cathode materials, could bridge the performance gap between batteries and supercapacitors. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first preparation of single‐crystalline V₂O₅ nanobelts by using electrospinning techniques. Interestingly, the beneficial crystal orientation provided improved cycling stability for lithium intercalation. These results demonstrate that further improvement or optimization of electrochemical performance in transition‐metal‐oxide‐based electrode materials could be realized by the design of 1D nanostructures with unique morphologies.
