CoFe2O4@SiO2-PA-CC-guanidine nanoparticles: A novel,efficient, and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted-2,6-dicyanoaniline derivatives

A new and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted-2,6-dicyanoaniline derivatives by CoFe₂O₄@SiO₂-PA-CC-guanidine magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was reported. 3,5-Disubstituted-2,6-dicyanoaniline derivatives were synthesized from malononitrile, aldehydes, and β-nitrostyrene derivatives in good yields. MNPs used for the synthesis of aniline derivatives were easy to recover and reuse. The CoFe₂O₄@SiO₂-PA-CC-guanidine MNPs were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and vibration sample magnetometry techniques.

Theoretical Investigation of the Additivity of Structural Substituent Effects in Benzene Derivatives

The additivity of substituent effects in 1,3- and 1,4-disubstituted C₆H₄X₂, and 1,3,5-trisubstituted C₆H₃X₃ (X=F, Cl, CN, NO₂, CH₃, CF₃, NH₂, OH) benzene derivatives on the ring geometry has been investigated. The analysis is based on ab initio calculations at the MP2/6-31G** level of theory. The substituent impacts on the benzene ring are generally in good agreement with the results reported in earlier experimental and lower level theoretical studies. The impacts determined in the monosubstituted benzenes were used to estimate the ring distortions in the di- and trisubstituted derivatives. The estimated ring CC bond distances agree generally within 0.001 Å and the estimated CCC bond angles within 0.3 degree, with the optimized ones. The best agreement (deviations up to only 0.0003 Å and 0.03 deg.) between the estimated and optimized geometrical parameters was obtained for the CH₃ derivatives. Generally, the para-disubstituted derivatives showed the best compliance with additivity, somewhat poorer agreement characterized the meta derivatives while the trisubstituted derivatives showed angular distortions of up to about 0.4°.

A highly sensitive and fast responsive fluorescent probe for SO2 derivatives and its application in living cell imaging

Abstract

A new fluorescence probe 1 for sulfur dioxide derivatives has been developed which acts through nucleophilic addition of the derivatives and shows high stability, specificity, and sensitivity. In the presence of SO₂ derivatives, the fluorescence intensity of probe 1 significantly decreases within a short time period of 40?s, along with a low detection limit of 0.32?µM. Fluorescence imaging capability of probe 1 was also investigated, showing clear detection of SO₂ derivatives in living cells. The results indicate that this probe has a great potential for the detection of SO₂ derivatives in broad biological and relevant samples.     

Photoelectron spectroscopy study of the triphenyl derivatives of the group IV elements

The photoelectron He(I) spectra of several phenyl derivatives of the Group IV elements are reported, and the first few bands are assigned to the corresponding MO's. A sizable interaction among the π orbitals of the rings has been found for the carbon derivatives HCPh₃, HC(mesityl)₃ and H₂CPh₂, but not for the Si, Ge and Sn triphenyl derivatives. The exceptional behaviour of the carbon compounds has been attributed to the short central atom—ring distance, by analogy with findings for the Group V triphenyl derivatives.The charge transfer from the rings towards the Si atom is substantially reduced compared with that in H₃SiPh.     

Synthesis and Photophysical Properties of Alkoxysilyl Derivatives of Dibenzoylmethanatoboron Difluoride

Alkoxysilyl derivatives of dibenzoylmethanatoboron difluoride (DBMBF₂) are synthesized by the hydrosilylation reaction of the corresponding O‐allyl derivatives of DBMBF₂ with triethoxysilane. The photophysical properties of the synthesized O‐allyl and alkoxysilyl derivatives are investigated. It is found that the absorption and fluorescence spectra of the DBMBF₂ derivatives essentially depend on the position of the O‐allyl or O‐propyl alkoxysilyl substituent. The highest fluorescence quantum yield is obtained for the para‐position, whereas the substitution at the meta‐position gives the largest bathochromic shift in the fluorescence spectrum. Density functional theory calculations of the structures and time‐dependent density functional theory calculations of the gas‐phase excitation and emission energies of alkoxysilyl derivatives are performed at the PBE0/SVP level of theory. Some spectral features of para‐, ortho‐, and meta‐substituted derivatives can be adequately explained by the overlapping of two absorption bands.     

2-Pyridone and 3-oxo-1,2,6-thiadiazine-1,1-dioxide derivatives: a new class of hydrogen bond equivalents of uracil

Hydrogen bond complex stability between adenine (A) and hydrogen bond equivalents of uracil: 2-pyridone derivatives (U^X _X2O) and 3-oxo-1,2,6-thiadiazine-1,1-dioxide derivatives (U^X _SO2) was studied, and as the result, the hydrogen bond energy of U^X _X2O-A and a complex of UX^X _SO2-A, was about 1.5 kcal/mol more stable than that of the corresponding adenine-uracil derivatives complex, respectively. The energy difference between the imide tautomer and enol tautomer was smaller than those of uracil derivatives. U^F _SO2 can form a stable complex with A, and its imide tautomer is stable.     

Preparation of tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indoloquinones

The nitration of N-acyl-7-methyl-1,3a,4,8b-tetrahydrocyclopenta[b]indole with a mixture NH₄NO₃-(CF₃CO)₂O afforded 5-nitro derivatives whose reduction with Fe(OH)₂ in H₂O led to the formation of 5-amino derivatives. The oxidation of the 5-amino derivatives with Fremy’s salt gave the corresponding indoloquinones.     

Discotic Liquid Crystals of Transition Metal Complexes, 19: Discotic Mesomorphism and Double Clearing Behavior of Octakis(dialkoxyphenyl)phthalocyanine Derivatives

Eight novel octakis(3,4-dialkoxyphenyl)- phthalocyanine derivatives, Cn-M (2, M=2H; 3, M=Ni; 4, M=Cu; a, decyloxy; b, undecyloxy; c, dodecyloxy), have been synthesized and characterized. It was found that each of the derivatives exhibits discotic liquid crystalline properties, and that each of the Cn–Cu (4) derivatives has two kinds of D_rd2( P 2₁/ a ) mesophases. These Cn–Cu (4a,b,c) and C₁₂–2H (2c) derivatives exhibit a unique double clearing behavior.     

Photobase generation from amineimide derivatives and their use for curing an epoxide/thiol system

The structural effects of amineimide derivatives on photobase generation and the use of the resultant base for thermal curing of an epoxide/thiol system are investigated. The results of UV spectral change and gas chromatographic‐mass spectrometric analysis indicated that amineimide derivatives undergo photolysis by UV irradiation and generate bases. The order of conversion of the photolysis for the functional groups introduced to amineimide derivatives was NO₂ > N(CH₃)₂ > CN > OCH₃ > H. By using aminimide derivatives with NO₂ and N(CH₃)₂ groups, the curing of the epoxide/thiol system was shifted to lower temperature after UV irradiation. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Highly selective hydroarylation of propiolic acid derivatives using a PtCl2/AgOTf catalytic system

Hydroarylation of propiolic acid derivatives with arenes in trifluoroacetic acid efficiently proceeded in the presence of PtCl₂/AgOTf catalyst to give cis-cinnamic acid derivatives in good to high yields. This PtCl₂/AgOTf-catalyzed reaction did not afford any 4-arylbuta-1,3-diene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid derivatives formed by Pd(OAc)₂-catalyzed hydroarylation. The specific optimization of the catalytic hydroarylation and application to electron-rich arenes are reported.     

Synthesis of fullerene building blocks bearing alkyne or azide groups and their subsequent functionalization by the copper mediated Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition

C₆₀ derivatives bearing either terminal alkyne or azide functional groups have been prepared and used as building blocks under the copper mediated Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition conditions. In general, the reactivity of C₆₀ toward azides does not significantly compete with the cycloaddition leading to the desired 1,2,3-triazole derivatives and good yields can be obtained when fullerene derivatives with reasonable solubility are used as starting materials. The electrochemical properties of the new fullerene derivatives have also been investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and Osteryoung Square Wave Voltammetry (OSWV).     

Electrochemical properties of palladium(0) complexes coordinated by quinone derivatives

The polagrophic and cyclic voltammetric behavior of quinone derivatives (Q) and their palladium(0) complexes, (Q)₁ or ²Pd(PPh₃)₂, has been studied. All free quinone derivatives except 5,8,9,10-tetrahydro-1,4-naphthoquinone (THNQ) showed two reversible waves, and all palladium(0) complexes showed irreversible waves. The reduction half-wave potentials for free quinone derivatives lie in the following order:7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) ? p-benzoquinone (BQ) ? 5,8-dihydro-1,4-naphthoquinone (DHNQ) ? 1,4-naphthoquinone (NQ) ? THNQ. The reduction potentials for quinone derivatives shifted toward the negative or coordination to palladium(0). The extents of the shifts depended on the electron-withdrawing ability of the free quinone derivatives. On the other hand, the oxidation potentials for the central palladium(0) in their complexes showed more positive values in comparison with the potential for Pd(PPh₃)₄. However, the oxidation potentials were almost constant for all complexes of the quinone derivatives. On the basis of these facts, the phenomena of charge transfer in the complexes are discussed.     

A comparative,vapor-phase (G.L.C.-M.S.) study of various derivatives of prostaglandins A and B

The isomeric prostaglandins, A and B, can be readily distinguished by differences in the mass spectra of their derivatives. The mass spectra of the PGA₁- or PGA₂-methyl ester (ME)-trimethyl silyl (TMS) ether derivatives have a prominent ion at [M ? 71]⁺ or [M ? C₅H₁₁]⁺ while those of the PGB₁- or PGB₂-ME-TMS derivatives have a predominant ion at [M ? 99]⁺ or [M ? C₆H₁₁O]⁺ in addition to that at [M ? 71]⁺. Ions of similar origin characterize the spectra of the PGA₁- or PGA₂-TMS ether-TMS ester and PGB₁- or PGB₁-TMS-TMS derivatives, respectively. The fragmentation of other derivatives of PGA₁, PGA₂, PGB₁ and PGB₂ such as the ME-t-Bu-DMS (t-butyl-dimethylsilyl ether); ME-MO (methoxime)-TMS; ME-MO-Ac (acetate), and ME-Ac are also described comparatively. The composition of important ions was confirmed by deuterium labeling and/or high resolution mass spectroscopy, where appropriate. The potential advantages and limitations of the derivatives for quantitative analysis of prostaglandins by the specialized technique of multiple ion detection (MID) are described.     

Synthesis and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Some Novel S-Pyridyl Glycosides Derivatives

A series of some new acetylated S-glycosides of pyridine-2-thione derivatives, including D-glucose, D-galactose, D-xylose and L-arabinose derivatives were synthesized. Oxidation of some formed S-glycosides derivatives with H₂O₂ afforded the corresponding sulfones. S-Alkylation of pyridine-2-thione derivatives was performed to furnish the S-acyclo deazauridine derivatives. The entire tested compound showed potent anti-inflammatory activity were potent against edema and in the same time inhibited the prostaglandine formation. It is work mention that all the tested compounds showed high safety margin. The structures of the new synthesized compounds have been proved by IR, ¹ HNMR, mass spectra and elemental analysis.     

Synthesis of [60]fullerene-glycopyranosylaminopyrimidin-4-one conjugates

The synthesis of several C₆₀ derivatives containing a 6-(β-d-glycopyranosylamino)pyrimidin-4-one unit and a C₆₀-uridine conjugate is described. The fullerene derivatives bearing a 4-(β-d-glycopyranosylamino)pyrimidin-4-one moiety were synthesised by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of C₆₀ with azomethine ylides generated in situ from the corresponding 5-formylpyrimidin-4-one derivatives and N-methylglycine. The synthesis of the C₆₀-uridine conjugate involved the selective protection of the 2′- and 3′-hydroxyl groups of uridine, esterification, cyclopropanation of C₆₀ and, finally, the deprotection of the hydroxyl groups. One of the fullerene-glycopyranosylaminopyrimidin-4-one conjugates was characterised by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. Differentiation between pairs of diastereoisomers, for several fullerene derivatives, was achieved through the study of their gas-phase fragmentations.     

Theoretical studies on heats of formation,detonation properties,and bond dissociation energies of monofurazan derivatives

The heats of formation (HOFs) for a series of monofurazan derivatives were calculated by using density functional theory. It is found that the ? CN or ? N₃ group plays a very important role in increasing the HOF values of the furazan derivatives. The detonation velocities and detonation pressures of the furazan derivatives are evaluated at two different levels. The results show that the ? NF₂ group is very helpful for enhancing the detonation performance for the furazan derivatives, but the case is quite the contrary for the ? CH₃ group. An analysis of the bond dissociation energies and bond orders for the weakest bonds indicate that the substitutions of ? CN group are favorable and enhances the thermal stability of the furazan derivatives, but the ? NO₂ groups produce opposite effects. These results provide basic information for the molecular design of novel high‐energy density materials. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2010     

Study on the properties of dextran-linked adenine nucleotide derivatives

A simple method is described for the preparation of dextran-linked coenzyme derivatives. Several different 8-(6-aminohexyl)amino-adenine nucleotide coenzymes and their derivatives were covalently attached to dextran by incubation with bromohydroxypropyl derivatives of dextran at room temperature in an alkaline medium. The polymer-linked adenine nucleotide derivatives were separated from the free coenzyme derivatives by a Sephadex G-50 column. The prepared dextran derivatives have ligand densities ranging from 20 to 100 μmol/g of dextran derivatives depending on the conditions of coupling and derivatives. NMR studies revealed that proton resonances of the polymer-linked coenzymes exhibit short transverse relaxation times (T₂) but long longitudinal relaxation times (T₁) This phenomenon was interpreted in terms of the anisotropic motions of the dextran-bound coenzyme derivatives in which the fast axial motions and slow restricted transverse motions of the bound coenzyme derivatives are postulated. These observations could properly explain why the polymer-linked coenzymes exhibit lower biological activity, but similar binding affinity to most enzymes.     

13C NMR study of polarizations and polarization ranges of vinylene groups in seven series of related compounds

Polarizations, polarization ranges and ratios of polarization ranges for vinylene groups in seven series, namely chalcone derivatives, ferrocene analogues of chalcone, stilbene derivatives, ferrocene analogues of stilbene, and styrene derivatives, were studied. The polarization ranges spanning the intervals between ¹³C NMR chemical shifts of the derivatives substituted by p-NO₂ and p-NMe₂ groups are compared in these related compounds. The influence of the side-chain groups in the vinylene moiety and of the sign of the polarization on the substituent-effect are discussed.
