Catalytic Hydrogenation of α,β-Epoxyketones to β-Hydroxyketones with Two Sulfinyl Analogues of Coenzyme NADH Models

An efficient method for the selective hydrogenation of a series of α,β-epoxyketones to β-hydroxyketones using catalytic amount of two sulfinyl analogues of NAD^＋ model compounds is reported. The lack of any diastereoselectivity for the formation of β-hydroxyketones with optically pure sulfinyl analogue of NAD^＋ model supports the radical mechanism proposed previously.     

手性噁唑硼烷催化α-和β-氨基酮不对称还原反应立体选择性的AM1过渡态模型研究

AM1 transition state (TS) models were developed for the enanfioselecfivifies in the reductions of α-and β-aminoketones catalyzed by (S)-4-benzyl-5,5-diphenyl-1,3,2-oxazaborolidine. The result showed that β-aminoketone gave better enanfioselectivity than its α-analog. Different chiralifies of the final products were obtained, R for the former and S for the latter. These semiempirical TS models are consistent with the experimental data.

Theoretical Study on Enol-keto Tautomerism of α-Fluorine-β-diketones

1 INTRODUCTION β-diketones are a class of high functional com- pounds with outstanding optical, electric and magne- tic properties[1], and the negative ion may act as an excellent chelating agent. Hall[2] have studied β-di- ketone/metal ion complexes and indicated that the ability of combination correlates with the keto-enol distribution in solution. The enol-keto equilibrium existing in β-diketones has been extensively studied over several decades[3~9]. Burdett[10] have investiga- ted…

Design and Synthesis of p/m-[p-（un）Substituted Phenylsulfonamido]phenyl β-Diketo Acids and Quinoxalone Derivatives

Diketo acid derivatives are potent and selective HIV-1 integrase inhibitors. To investigate the detailed synthesis of those derivatives, a series of p/m-[p-（un）substituted phenylsulfonamido]phenyl β-diketo acid derivatives have been designed and synthesized. The quinoxalone derivatives as the potential bioisosteres of the biologically labile β-diketoacid pharmacophores have also been synthesized from reactions of the corresponding diketo acids with o-phenylenediamine. The structures of all diketo acid （ester） and quinoxalone derivatives were confirmed by 1^H NMR, 13^C NMR, IR, HRMS and/or MS （ESI）. X-ray crystallographic analysis of 11b demonstrates a similar arrangement of the side chain of quinoxalone derivatives with the parent diketoacids due to the intramolecular hydrogen bond （O…H-N） and the sp^2 hybridization configuration of the two nitrogen atoms of the quinoxalone ring.     

Using PVP/SDS Complex as a Probe to Study the Inclusion Complex of β-cyclodextrin with SDS in Aqueous Solution

PVP/SDS complex was applied as a probe to study the interaction between β-cyclodextrin （β-CD） and sodium dodecyl sulfate （SDS） in aqueous solution. It has been found that a critical concentration, namely cs, exists in the relative viscosity of solution containing PVP/SDS complex versus β-CD concentration plot. As the β-CD concentration is less than cs, the relative viscosity of solution decreases sharply by adding β-CD into solution successively. On the other hand, as the β-CD concentration is greater than cs, the relative viscosity of solution increases gradually by adding β-CD into solution. The decrease of the relative viscosity of solution containing PVP/SDS in the presence of β-CD is just due to the inclusion complex of β-CD with the guest molecule SDS. And, this inclusion interaction takes down SDS from the PVP chains in solution. The ratio of the host molecule β-CD to the guest molecule SDS can be calculated from Cs. In our experiment the inclusion ratio of β-CD to SDS is 1/1. The further experimental results indicate that cs is associated with SDS but free from PVP in PVP/SDS complex. However, the inclusion ratio of β-CD to SDS has proved to be independent of either SDS or PVP in PVP/SDS complex.

Study of H2O and HOCH2CH2OH Adsorption on the Relaxation Surface of β-Si3N4（0001） by Density Functional Theory

Density functional theory （DFT） B3LYP method is used to theoretically investigate the adsorption conformations of H2O and glycol on the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4（0001） with cluster models. For H2O, the most stable structure is that adsorbed through the H atom lying above a N（3） site of the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4（0001）; while for glycol, it is the one adsorbed via the H atom lying above the center of Si（2） and N（3） of the same relaxation surface. The adsorption energy, adsorption bond and transfer electrons of the two adsorbed substances prove that glycol is easy to be adsorbed on the relaxation surface of β-Si3N4（0001）.

Enamine Configuration of 5-Methyl-2-phenyl-4-[（Z）-3-tolylamino-phenylmethylene]pyrazol-3（2H）-one

1 INTRODUCTION In contrast to the old-line academic and practical studies of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazo- lone (PMBP) on the metal coordination chemistry[1], the complexes of β-ketoamines derivated from PMBP received little attention due to its complicated com- plexation. However, in recent years, there has a sudden growth of this area as a result of its timely interest in biological activities[2]. Recently, a series of β-ketoamines[3] containing PMBP have been prepared fro…

An Environmentally Benign System for Synthesis of β-Hydroxylketones： L-Histidine Asymmetrically Catalyzed Direct Aldol Reactions in Aqueous Micelle and Water-like Media

The first histidine catalyzed direct aldol reactions of ketones with nitrobenzaldehydes in water and in poly（ethylene glycol） （PEG） were reported. It reveals that histidine is a good aldol catalyst for synthesis of β-hydroxylketones in water and in PEG, giving good to excellent yields of the respective products. Better enantioand regioselectivity were achieved using low molecular weight PEG as the media. The results show that histidine and PEG-200 or -300 may constitute a promising environmentally benign system for asymmetric synthesis of β-hydroxylketones.

Molecular dynamics studies of the inhibitory mechanism of copper（Ⅱ） on aggregation of amyloid β-peptide

The inhibitory mechanism of copper（Ⅱ） on the aggegation of amyloid β-peptide （Aβ） was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The binding mode ofcopper（Ⅱ） with Aβ is characterized by the imidazole nitrogen atom, Nπ, of the histidine residue H 13, acting as the anchoring site, and the backbone＇s deprotoned amide nitogen atoms as the main binding sites. Drove by the coordination bonds and their induced hydrogen bond net, the conformations of Aβ converted from β-sheet non-β-sheet conformations, which destabilized the aggregation of Aβ into fibrils.
