Enantioselective Conjugate Addition of Diethylzinc to Chalcone Catalyzed by Ni（acac）2 and Chiralβ-Amino Alcohols

Enantioselectivge conjugate addition of diethyzinc to chalcone was carried out in the presenee of Ni (acac)2 complexed with five pyrrolidfumyimethanois derived from L-proline. (S)-N-Benzyl-2-(l-hydroxy.l-methylethyl) pyrrolidlne was found to be the best ngnd in asymmetric conjugate addition among the five ligands. The products were obtained with up to 70% ee.The configuration of the product was determined jointly by the substituents on the carbon of the hydroxy group and the nitrogen atom.

A New Approach to the Asymmetric Reaction of the Chiron 5－L－Menthyloxy－2（5H）－furanones with Horner－Emmons Reagent

The asymmetric reaction of the chiron 2(5H )-furanones (4a-4c) with the Horner-Emmons reagents (5a-5b) has been investigated. The newly chirai organophosphorus derivatives 6 and 7 were obtained using the phosphoryl-stabilized carbanion as a building block in DMSO under mild conditions. Through the asymmetric introduction, the Horner-Emmons reagent could be transformed to a chiral building block to afford the novel functionalized phosphorus derivatives. The structures of the synthesized compounds 6 and 7 were identified on the basis of their elementary and spectroscopic data, such as IR,^1H NMR, ^13C NMR, MS and X-ray crystallography. These resuits provided a valuable approach to the synthesis of potentially interesting chirai organophosphorus derivatives and probing their biological activities.

Theoretical Investigation on the Second-order Nonlinear Optical Properties of Chiral Amino Acid Zinc（Ⅱ） Porphyrins

Static second-order nonlinear optical effects of amino acid zinc(Ⅱ) porphyrins 1, 2,3 and 4 were calculated by the TDHF/PM3 method based on the molecular structures optim.zed at the semiempirical PM3 quantum chemistry level, showing due to the cancellation of symmetric center, these amino acid zinc(H) porphyrins exhibit second order nonlinear optical response. The analysis of β components indicated that these amino acid zinc(Ⅱ) porphyrins are of multipolarizabilities, and they may be ascribed as the “mixture” of octupolar and dipoar molecules with ||βJ=3||/||βJ=1||≈5. It is found that there are no significant differences between the static β values of non-chiral and chiral amino acid zinc(Ⅱ) porphyrins. However, the βxyz component, which is quite important to quadratic macroscopic X^(2) susceptibility of chiral material, is increased significantly with the increase of side chain group of amino acids.

Structural and Spectroscopic Studies on [Cu（DACH）2（H2O）]—Cl2（DACH—1,4—Diazacycloheptane）

A penta-coordinated Cu(Ⅱ） complex with 1,4-diazacycloheptane (DACH),[Cu(DACH)2(H2O)]Cl2(1),has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction,IR spectra,elemental analyses,thermal analyses,UV-Vis and ESR techniques.Complex 1 crystallizes in orthorhombic crystal system,Pbcn space group with a=1.6075(4),b=1.0539(3),c=0.9195(3)nm,V=1.5578(7)nm^3,Mr=352.79,Z=4,Dc=1.487g/cm^3,final R=0.0451 and wR=0.1294.The structure of 1 indicates that the central Cu(Ⅱ） atom is penta-coordinated by four nitrogen aboms of two DACH moieties at the equatorial positions and a water molecule at the axis position.The coordination geometry of Cu(Ⅱ） could be considered as an approximately ideal square-pyramidal environment.Both DACH rings arrange in cis-form and are predominantly in the boat-boat conformation (80%) with some disorder to the chair-chair conformation (20%).The Cl^- anions are hydrogen bonded with the nitrogen donors of the DACH rings and the oxygen donor of the coordinated H2O molecule to form a one-dimensional zigzag linear structure. The solution behaviors of 1 are also discussed in detail by Uvvis and ESR technique.

Guanidine hydrochloride catalyzed efficient one-pot pseudo five-component synthesis of 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) in water

The present methodology describes an efficient, environmentally friendly and simple protocol for the synthesis of some 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ol) derivatives through a one-pot pseudo-five-component reaction of hydrazine hydrate/phenyl hydrazine, ethyl acetoacetate, and various aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by guanidine hydrochloride.
