Pillaring of Zn2Al Layered Double Hydroxide by Dawson Polyoxometalate Anions

Zn2Al layered double hydroxide pillared with Dawson polyoxometalates, P₂W₁₇ZO₆₁^8-(Z=Mn²⁺, Co ²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺) was prepared. A basal space of ca. 16 nm indicates the intercalated Dawson ions to be oriented with their C₂ axis perpendicular to the double hydroxide layers(with the exception of P₂W₁₇Zn-LDH). The IR and¹³P MASNMR spectral reveal that the Dawson ions retain their integrity in the interlayer space of LDH. A preliminary study shows that these compounds are highly active catalysts for the oxidation of cyclohexene with molecular oxygen.     

激光拉曼光谱研究NiMoP浸渍液活性组分的结构 Ⅱ.不同有机添加剂的影响

采用激光拉曼光谱（LRS）技术对添加有乙二醇和柠檬酸的NiMoP浸渍液和用该浸渍液制备的NiMoP/Al₂O₃催化剂进行了表征,研究了乙二醇和柠檬酸含量对NiMoP浸渍液及浸渍过程中活性相组成、结构的影响。结果表明,乙二醇使NiMoP(0.063)浸渍液中H_{x\[PMo11O39\]⁽7-x)- 或Hx\[PMo9O31\]⁽3-x)-及Hx\[PMo12O40\]⁽3-x)- 杂多阴离子结构转化成Hx\[P2Mo5O23\]⁽6-x)- 结构,而柠檬酸能保持NiMoP(0.063)浸渍液中Hx\[P2Mo5O23\]⁽6-x)-、Hx\[PMo11O39\]⁽7-x)- 或Hx\[PMo9O31\]⁽3-x)-及Hx\[PMo12O40\]⁽3-x)-杂多阴离子结构共存,但导致Hx\[P2Mo5O23\]⁽6-x)-含量降低,Hx\[PMo12O40\]⁽3-x)-含量升高。相对乙二醇而言,柠檬酸有机添加剂能够更有效地阻止浸渍过程中各杂多阴离子结构在载体氧化铝孔道中的分解。}     

Theoretical Studies on Aromaticity of Spiro Metallaaromatics of (C10H10M)2-(M=Ni,Pd, Pt)

Aiming to identify the spiro metallaaromatic systems with potential application value, (C₁₀H₁₀M)^2?(M=Ni, Pd, Pt) derivatives were theoretically investigated. (C₁₀H₁₀M)^2?-Iso1, which has two 6-membered rings(6MRs) connected by the M spiro atom, is a 14π-aromatic as a whole plane. (C₁₀H₁₀M)^2?-Iso2 has one 6π-aromatic 5MR and one 10π-aromatic 7MR connected by the spiro atom. The free (C₁₀H₁₀M)^2? dianions could not exist due to their rather high frontier orbital energies, while the neutral (C₁₀H₁₀M)Li₂ compounds are extremely stable against dissociation. Since (C₁₀H₁₀M)Li₂ coumponds are not fully coordinated, they trend to form (C₁₀H₁₀M)Li₄²⁺ dications, or even[(C₁₀H₁₀M)Li₂]_n polymers. Arguably, (C₁₀H₁₀M)^2? planes are not the only examples for spiro metallaaromaticity, their derivatives are also potential material building blocks.     

Theoretical study of tricyclo[3,3,1,1]decane, tricyclo[3,3,1,1]decsilane molecules and their halogen derivatives, C10H12X4 and Si10H12X4 (X=F, Cl, Br, I)

The B3LYP/3-21G* ab initio molecular orbital method from the program package was applied to study tricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decane and tricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decsilane molecules and their halogen derivatives (1,3,5,7-tetrahalotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decane and 1,3,5,7-tetrahalotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decsilane, C₁₀H₁₂X₄ and Si₁₀H₁₂X₄ respectively). The optimized structures of these compounds were obtained. Ionization potentials, HOMO and LUMO energies, energy gaps, heats of formation, atomization energies and vibration frequencies were calculated. The calculations indicate that these molecules are stable and have T_d symmetry. Tricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decsilane and its halogen derivatives (Si₁₀H₁₂X₄) are found to have higher conductivity than tricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decane and its halogen derivatives (C₁₀H₁₂X₄). 1,3,5,7-Tetrafluorotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decane (C₁₀H₁₂F₄) and 1,3,5,7-tetrafluorotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decsilane (Si₁₀H₁₂F₄) were found to be the easiest compounds to form and the most difficult to dissociate of all 1,3,5,7-tetrahalotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decane and 1,3,5,7-tetrahalotricyclo[3,3,1,1^3,7]decsilane compounds, respectively.     

Facile One-pot Transformation of 2,3-Epoxy Alcohols into Allylic Alcohols

Optically-active allylic alcohols have been frequently used as chiral building blocks for the preparation of optically pure compounds.¹ There are at present various methods for the synthesis of optically active allylic alcohols including the kinetic resolution racemic allylic alcohols,² reductive rearrangement of 2,3-epoxy alcohol by metal, halide and telluium-based chemistry.³ To our knowledge, One-pot Transformation of 2,3-epoxy alcohols into allylic alcohols, especially via epoxy iodides,is limited to Dorta's method³ using a Ph₃P,iodine, imidazole,2,6-lutidine and water system. The original Dorta's method can be successfully applied to the formation of tertiary allylic alcohols, but give unsatisfactory results in formation of secondary allylic alcohols.     

First Total Synthesis of (±)-Ponganone Ⅲ

In recent years, the synthesis and pharmacology of pyranoflavanoids have been extensively investigated due to their wide range of pharmacological properties^[1-3]. Ponganone Ⅲ^[4],a new natural pyranoflavanone isolated from the Pongamia pinnala, was identified as (2S)-3',4'-dimethoxy-6',6"-dimethylpyrano-[2",3":7,8]-flavanone (2) on the basis of spectra data. Its precursor,3,4-dimethoxy-2'-hydroxy-6",6"-dimethylchromeno-[2",3":4',3']-chalcone (1) is also a new natural product^[5] isolated from the roots of Lonchocarpus subglaucescent. Their total synthesis have not been reported. Herein, we wish to report the first total synthesis of compounds 1 and 2 in order to confirm the proposed structure and further more to evaluate its biological activities.     

Study on the α-Thiocarbonylthioformamide Ⅰ-Comparison with α-carbonylthioformamide

α-Carbonylthioformamide 1 and α-thiocarbonylthioformamide 1 were synthesized by Adiwidjaja in 1980¹. However, there is no report of these compounds related their properties and reaction activities². Compound 1 has two possible sites for nucleophilic attack. In our previous works., it was used to synthesize a lot of heterocyclic compounds (Scheme l)^3-6.     

Two alkynyl functionalized Co(II)-MOFs as fluorescent sensors exhibiting selectivity and sensitivity for Fe3+ and nitroaromatic compounds

N, C and Sn NMR and other spectroscopic studies of 8-quinolinol, its O- and N-methyl derivatives, and chelate di- and tri-organotin(IV) complexes

The nature of the 8-quinolinato ligand in various forms has been examined by ¹⁵N, ¹³C and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR spectroscopy, with evidence also from electronic spectroscopy. These forms include 8-quinolinol (HQ), 8-quinolinate, the 8-hydroxyquinolinium ion, O- and N-methyl derivatives, 8-methoxyquinoline (MeQ), the zwitterionic N-methylquinolinium-8-olate and the N-methylquinolinium ion, and the chelating ligand in organotin(IV) complexes. The ¹⁵N shift from MeQ to HQ affords a measure of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding in HQ. The ¹⁵N shifts and ²J(¹⁵N¹H) couplings afford criteria of chelation, and the O- and N-methyl compounds provide useful reference points for its assessment. Evidence for chelation is demonstrated in three groups of compounds, [SnR₂Q₂] (R = Me, Et, Buⁿ, Octⁿ or Ph), [SnR₃Q] (R = Me, Et, Buⁿ or Ph) and [SnR₂ClQ] (R = Me, Et, Buⁿ or Octⁿ), the ¹⁵N and ¹¹⁹Sn shielding increasing from the [SnR₃Q] to the [SnR₂Q₂] compounds.     

Flow injection analysis methods for determination of diffusion coefficients

Two flow injection analyses (FIA) methods for the determination of diffusion coefficients in a straight single tube FIA system were developed. Based on the analytical solution of the convection-diffusion equation, linear relationships of the logarithmic values of the dispersion coefficient (D) and the half-peak width (W_1/2) with the diffusion coefficient (D_m) were obtained. Experiments were designed to verify these methods. For example, for potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) a D_m value of 0.72 × 10⁵ cm² s⁻¹ was found versus a literature value of 0.76 × 10⁵ cm² s⁻¹ (error, 5%). For potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) a D_m value of 0.67 × 10⁵ cm² s⁻¹ was obtained versus a literature value of 0.63 × 10⁵ cm² s⁻¹ (error, 6%). The diffusion coefficients of some important biomedical compounds, such as dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine and ascorbic acid, were then determined. The values of 10⁵ D_m/cm² s⁻¹ are 0.60 ± 0.03, 0.44 ± 0.02, 0.60 ± 0.01 and 0.68 ± 0.06, respectively.     

Synthesis of bimetallic[Sn,A]-μ-oxoisopropoxyacetate and -μ-oxoisopropoxide and their acetylacetone and benzoylacetone derivatives

Bimetallic [Sn^IV,Al^III-μ-oxoisopropoxyacetate (Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAl(OⁱPr)₂] and bimetallic [Sn^IV,Al^III]-μ- oxoisopropoxide [Bu₂SnO₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₄] have been synthesized by thermal condensation of dibutyltin diacetate with aluminium isopropoxide in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, respectively. Reactions of these compounds with acetylacetone and benzoylacetone in these molar ratios yielded compounds of the type [Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAl(OⁱPr)L], [Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAlL₂], [Bu₂SnO₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₃L] and [Bu₂SnO ₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₂L₂] (where L = acetylacetonate or benzoylacetonate anion). The μ-oxo compounds and their derivatives have been characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques (IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ²⁷Al NMR and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR).     

Matrixreaktionen von AlF und AlCl mit o-atomen: IR-spektren von OAlF und OAlCl

It is possible to synthesize OAlF and OAlCl in an argon matrix by co-condensation of AlF and AlCl with oxygen atoms. The stretching vibrations of these compounds are found at 1148 and 740 cm⁻¹ (¹⁶OAlF), respectively 1094 and 490.5 cm⁻¹ (¹⁶OAlCl). As ¹⁶O/¹⁸O isotopic splitting of all frequencies can be observed, an exact calculation of the force constants f(AlF), f(AlO) and f(AlCl) is possible. The force constant f(AlO) is 6.6 [10² Nm⁻¹] for both compounds. This is the first time, that structural data of molecules, containing aluminium with the formal charge 3+ with an AlO bond, have been obtained.     

Symmetrization of methylmercury(II) and phenylmercury(II) salts induced by the tripodal ligand N(CH2CH2PPh2)3

Both ionic [HgR(DMSO)][CF₃SO₃] (R = Me or Ph) and covalent HgMeI organomercury(II) compounds react with the tripodal ligand N(CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₃ (np₃) to yield as ultimate products Hg(II) complexes, the new five-coordinated [Hg(OSO₂CF₃)(np₃)]⁺ or the known tetrahedral [HgI(np₃)]⁺ and symmetric diorganomercurials respectively. Monitoring of the reactions by ¹H, ³¹P and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy has shown that the mechanistic pathways depend on the nature of the reagents.

When thienyl Schiff base 1, derived from 2-formylthiophene and hydrazine, reacted with Fe₂(CO)₉ in n-hexane, three major complexes were obtained: (1) a diironhexacarbonyl complex with two 2-thienylmethylideneamido bridging ligands 2, which resulted from the =N---N= bond cleavage of ligand 1; (2) a doubly cyclometalated di-μ-di-(η¹:η²-thienyl; η¹:η¹(N))bis(hexacarbonyldiiron) complex (3); and (3) a cyclometalated (μ-η¹:η²-thienyl; η¹:η¹(N))hexacarbonyldiiron complex (4). Molecular structures of compounds 1a, 1c, and 2a have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

二苯并噻吩及其氧化物与离子液体相互作用的理论研究

采用密度泛函理论方法比较了DBT/DBTO₂和[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^-/[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^-的相互作用。对最稳定的[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^-、[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^--DBT、[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^--DBTO₂、[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^-、[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^--DBT、[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^--DBTO₂进行了NBO和AIM分析。结果表明,DBT和[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^-/[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^-中的咪唑环彼此相互平行,NBO和AIM分析表明它们之间发生了π-π相互作用。H1'和H9'形成的F…H氢键有利于π-π堆积作用的形成。DBTO₂倾向于趋近C2-H2和甲基基团形成O…H相互作用;DBTO₂优先吸附在[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^-/[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^-。在模拟油中,[BMIM]⁺[PF₆]^-和[BMIM]⁺[BF₄]^-离子液体对DBTO₂的萃取能力大于DBT,其原因是可能是DBTO₂具有较大的极性和O…H与F…H的氢键作用。     

尖吻蝮蛇毒抗凝血因子Ⅱ的稀土离子荧光探针研究

尖吻蝮蛇毒抗凝血因子(ACF)分子中有两个钙离子结合位点,钙离子对ACF的内源荧光有增强作用,稀土离子(Nd³⁺,Sm³⁺,Eu³⁺,Gd³⁺和Tb³⁺)能取代ACF分子中的钙离子,并对ACF的内源荧光有不同程度的猝灭作用,其中Tb³⁺接受ACF分子中Trp残基传递的能量后,特征荧光增强.稀土离子与ACF荧光滴定表明,ACF分子中有两个稀土离子结合位点,稀土离子和钙离子在ACF分子中两个结合部位是共同的竞争结合部位.ACF与不同稀土离子之间有相近的表观结合常数K₁或K₂.Tb³⁺与RE³⁺(RE=Nd,Sm,Eu或Gd)间线性自由能关系表明,稀土离子与ACF结合时,没有明显的空间效应.ACF分子中的两个结合位点在结构上都有较大的柔性,这种结构柔性为钙离子在ACF与活化凝血因子X的结合反应中起到的促进作用提供了结构基础.

The Synthesis of Ferrocenyl Compounds with Nonlinear Optical Properties

There is currently considerable interest in the synthesis of new material with large second-order optical nonlinearities^[1-2]. Ferrocenyl derivatives that we synthesized should offer the nonlinear optical properties because they possess (-donor acceptor interactions and non-centrosymmetry. In these compounds, ferrocenyl moiety is strong donor and pyridinium moiety can provide low-lying (^* acceptor orbitals. Furthermore, these ferrocenyl compounds may also be used in preparation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs)^[3] due to their long alkyl chain that can be anchored on metal oxide by carboxylic group. The synthesis of ferrocenyl derivatives is shown in Scheme 1.     

Synthesis and resonance raman study of conductive iodinated materials derived from [M(dmit)(phen)] complexes [M = Pd(II), Pt(II)]

The synthesis and characterization of the [M(dmit)(phen)] complexes [M = Pd(II), Pt(II); H₂dmit = 4,5-dimercapto-1,3-dithiole-2-thione; PHEN = 1,10-phenanthroline) and of the iodinated [M(dmit)(phen)]I compounds are described. The conductivity of [M(admit)(phen)] increases upon oxidation by a factor of 10⁶, and is ca. 5 × 10⁻³ ohm⁻ cm⁻ for the [M(admit)(phen)]I compounds. The nature of the iodine species in these solids is determined by UV-visible and resonance Raman spectroscopies. The only polyiodide present is I⁻₃ and, thus, the charge distribution can be expressed as [M(dmit) (phen)^0.33+[I⁻₃]_0.33.
