The first rhodium(I)‐catalyzed enantioselective intermolecular C –H activation of various saturated aza‐heterocycles including tetrahydroquinolines, piperidines, piperazines, azetidines, pyrrolidines, and azepanes is presented. The combination of a rhodium(I) precatalyst and a chiral monodentate phosphonite ligand is shown to be a powerful catalytic system to access a variety of important enantio‐enriched heterocycles from simple starting materials. Notably, the C –H activation of tetrahydroquinolines is especially challenging due to the adjacent C −H bond. This redox‐neutral methodology provides a new synthetic route to α‐N‐arylated heterocycles with high chemoselectivity and enantioselectivity up to 97 % ee. 相似文献
The electronic structure of several many‐electron atoms, confined within a penetrable spherical box, was studied using the Hartree–Fock (HF) method, coupling the Roothaan's approach with a new basis set to solve the corresponding one‐electron equations. The resulting HF wave‐function was employed to evaluate the Shannon entropy, , in configuration space. Confinements imposed by impenetrable walls induce decrements on when the confinement radius, Rc, is reduced and the electron‐density is localized. For confinements commanded by penetrable walls, exhibits an entirely different behavior, because when an atom starts to be confined, delivers values less than those observed for the free system, in the same way that the results presented by impenetrable walls. However, from a confinement radius, shows increments, and precisely in these regions, the spatial restrictions spread to the electron density. Thus, from results presented in this work, the Shannon entropy can be used as a tool to measure the electron density delocalization for many‐electron atoms, as the hydrogen atom confined in similar conditions. 相似文献
Algorithms to build the basis and matrix representation to obtain the Kramers configuration space functions (KCSFs) via diagonalization will be formally generalized to an arbitrary number of unpaired (open shell) fermions. Effective build up of the matrix representation will be outlined (including threading and graphical processing unit parallelism) to subsequently obtain the KCSFs via calling external/numerical library routines for diagonalization. The effective build up of the matrix representation relays on a binary tree search algorithm to allow evaluation the action on a given basis vector. The binary tree search avoids the treatment of zero matrix elements which leads to an exponential acceleration. The implementation ( basis creation, matrix representation, and matrix diagonalization) will be done in an all in core and all at once manner, hence the available core memory sets the physical limits in practical applications. Memory limitations, sparsity of the matrix, general case of n fermions in m spinors, and the application of KCSFs will be put into further perspective. 相似文献
Energy eigenvalues of nonautoionizing doubly excited states originating from 2pnf ( ) configuration of two‐electron atoms have been calculated by expanding the basis set in explicitly correlated Hylleraas coordinates under the framework of Ritz variational method. A detailed discussion on the evaluation of correlated basis integrals is given. The energy eigenvalues of a number of these doubly excited states are being reported for the first time especially for the high lying states. The effective quantum numbers ( ) for the states mentioned above have been calculated by using the theory of quantum defect. 相似文献
[K(crypt‐222)]+ ( 1 ) and [K(crypt‐222)]+ ( 3 ) are isostructural, displaying nearly identical unit cell parameters. The two structures are similar to the extent that the previously reported [K(crypt‐222)]+ model can be refined against the new data for [K(crypt‐222)]+ , with extra electron density being observed from the fourth fluorine atom of the . In agreement with experimental observations, theoretical calculations suggest that deprotonated [K(crypt‐222)]+ is highly unstable even at as low as 195 K. The previously considered 1:1 CHF 3 clathrate of deprotonated [K(crypt‐222)]+ (crystallographically indistinguishable from 1 ) is ruled out on the basis of all available data. 相似文献
A new series of divalent boron‐rare gas cations (Rg = He ∼ Rn, n = 1–4) have been predicted theoretically at the B3LYP, MP2, and CCSD(T) levels to present the structures, stability, charge distributions, bond natures, and aromaticity. The Rg B bond energies are quite large for heavy rare gases and increase with the size of the Rg atom. Because of steric hindrance new Rg atoms introduced to the B4 ring will weaken the Rg B bond. Thus in the Rg B bond has the largest binding energy 90–100 kcal/mol. p‐ has a slightly shorter Rg B bond length and a larger bond energy than o‐ . NBO and AIM analyses indicate that for the heavy Rg atoms Ar ∼ Rn the B Rg bonds have character of typical covalent bonds. The energy decomposition analysis shows that the σ‐donation from rare gases to the boron ring is the major contribution to the Rg B bonding. Adaptive natural density partitioning and nuclear‐independent chemical shift analyses suggest that both and have obvious aromaticity. 相似文献
Summary: A highly selective protein assay was created which combines the fluorescent ratiometric technique based on FRET with the light‐harvesting properties of conjugated polymers. The cationic poly[(9,9‐bis(6′‐N,N,N‐trimethylammonium)‐hexyl)‐fluorene phenylene] bromide (PFP‐NMe) and the negatively charged biotinylated fluorescein probe (Fl‐B) were used to detect the target protein streptavidin optically. The strong electrostatic interactions between PFP‐NMe and fluorescein result in efficient FRET from PFP‐NMe to fluorescein. In the presence of streptavidin, however, the biotin moiety of Fl‐B specifically associates with streptavidin and the fluorescein molecule is buried deeply in the adjacent vacant binding sites. This separates the fluorescein spatially from the PFP‐NMe moiety, resulting in inefficient FRET from PFP‐NMe to fluorescein. Although a nonspecific protein, such as BSA, shows nonspecific interactions with PFP‐NMe, it does not affect the fluorescent ratio value of PFP‐NMe to fluorescein. Hence, the charged neutral complex of two oppositely charged conjugated polymers can eliminate the nonspecific interactions, and thus optimize their application in protein assays.
