The stereochemistry of the dichlorocobalt(III) complexes with (2S,5S,9S)- and (2S,5R,9S)-trimethyltriethylenetetraamines

Dichlorocobalt(III) complexes of (2S,5S,9S)-trimethyltriethylenetetraamine (L₁) and (2S,5R,9S)-trimethyltriethylenetetraamine (L₂) have been prepared. Both L₁ and L₂ coordinate to the cobalt(III) ion to give three isomers: Λ-cis-α, Δ-cis-β, trans isomers for L₁ and Δ-cis-α, Δ-cis-β, trans isomers for L₂. Each of the trans-dichloro complexes of the two ligands have been isomerized stereospecifically to the cis-α-dichloro complex in methanol, and each of the cis-α-dichloro complexes stereospecifically to the trans-diaqua complex in water. Both the geometrical and optical inversions took place at the same time in the observed stereospecific isomerizations.     

Synthesis,structural characterization,oxygen sensitivity,and antimicrobial activity of ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes with thiosemicarbazones

[Ru(CO)(PPh₃)₂(η³-O,N³,S-TSC¹)] (1), [Ru(Cl)(CO)(PPh₃)₂(η²-N³,S-TSC²)] (2), and [Ru(Cl)(CO)(PPh₃)₂(η²-N³,S-TSC³)] (3) have been prepared by reacting [Ru(H)(Cl)(CO)(PPh₃)₃] with the respective thiosemicarbazones TSC¹ (2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone), TSC² (3-hydroxybenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone), and TSC³ (3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone) in a 1?:?1 M ratio in toluene and all of the complexes have been characterized by UV–vis, FT-IR, and ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. The spectroscopic studies showed that TSC¹ is coordinated to the central metal as a tridendate ligand coordinating via the azomethine nitrogen (C=N), phenolic oxygen, and sulfur to ruthenium in 1, whereas TSC² and TSC³ are coordinated to ruthenium as a bidentate ligand through azomethine nitrogen (C=N) and sulfur in 2 and 3. Oxygen sensitivities of 1–3 and [Ru(Cl)(CO)(PPh₃)₂(η²-N³,S-TSC⁴)] (4), and antimicrobial activities of 1–3 have been determined.     

Asymmetric Synthesis of Highly Enantiomerically Enriched (S)(-)-β-Bisabolene

(S)-β-Bisabolene, (S)-1, was synthetized by a synthetic route in which (S)-4-methyl-3-cyclohexene carboxylic acid, (S)-10, which was the key intermediate, was prepared via a highly diastereoselective TiCl₄-catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction between isoprene and the acrylate of commercial (R)-pantolactone, followed by hydrolysis. Compound (S)-10 was then converted into ketone (S)-13 using two different procedures. The best one of these, as regards the degree of stereospecificity, involved the reaction of (S)-10 with 2 equiv of 4-methyl-3-penten-1-yllithium, 14, in the presence of CeCl₃, and gave (S)-13 having ca. 84% ee. The Zr-promoted methylenation of this ketone afforded highly enantiomerically enriched (S)-1.     

Synthesis of (5R)- and (5S)-5-Methyl-5, 6-dihydrouridine Derivatives

The hydrogenation of 2′, 3′-O-isopropylidene-5-methyluridine (1) in water over 5% Rh/Al₂O₃ gave (5 R)- and (5 S)-5-methyl-5, 6-dihydrouridine (2) , separated as 5′-O-(p-tolylsulfonyl)- (3) and 5′-O-benzoyl- (5) derivatives by preparative TLC. on silica gel and ether/hexane developments. The diastereoisomeric differentiation at the C(5) chiral centre depends upon the reaction media and the nature of the protecting group attached to the ribosyl moiety. The synthesis of iodo derivatives (5 R)- and (5 S)- 4 is also described. The diastereoisomers 4 were converted into (5 R)- and (5 S)-2′, 3′,-O-isopropylidene-5-methyl-2, 5′-anhydro-5, 6-dihydrouridine (7) .     

The First C 3-Symmetric P-Stereogenic Diphosphinomethane Trinuclear Palladium Clusters: Synthesis and Characterization

The enantiomeric ligands (R,R)- and (S,S)-bis(o-anisylphenylphosphino)methane (R,R-14 and S,S-14, respectively) were used to prepare the C ₃-point group clusters [Pd₃(dppm*)₃(CO)(O₂CCF₃)](CF₃CO₂) with dppm* = (R,R)-14 or (S,S)-14. The chiral structure of an enantiomeric clusters (with the chiral R,R-ligand (R,R)-14) was unambiguously demonstrated by both X-ray structure determination and by circular dichroism spectroscopy. This paper is dedicated to Professor C.N.R. Rao.     

Synthesis and structural characterization of ruthenium complexes with 1-aryl-imidazole-2-thione

Treatment of [RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃] with 2 equiv. Himt^MPh (Himt^MPh?=?1-(4-methyl-phenyl)-imidazole-2-thione) in the presence of MeONa afforded cis-[Ru(κ ²-S,N-imt^MPh)₂(PPh₃)₂] (1), while interaction of [RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃] and 2 equiv. Himt^MPh in tetrahydrofuran (THF) without base gave [RuCl₂(κ ¹-S-Himt^MPh)₂(PPh₃)₂] (2). Treatment of [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₃] with 1 equiv. Himt^MPh in THF gave [RuHCl(κ ¹-S-Himt^MPh)(CO)(PPh₃)₂] (3), whereas reaction of [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₃] with 1 equiv. of the deprotonated [imt^MPh]^? or [imt^NPh]^? (imt^NPh?=?1-(4-nitro-phenyl)-2-mercaptoimidazolyl) gave [RuH(κ ²-S,N-imt^RPh)(CO)(PPh₃)₂] (R?=?M 4a, R?=?N 4b). The ruthenium hydride complexes 4a and 4b easily convert to their corresponding ruthenium chloride complexes [RuCl(κ ²-S,N-imt^MPh)(CO)(PPh₃)₂] (5a) and [RuCl(κ ²-S,N-imt^NPh)(CO)(PPh₃)₂] (5b), respectively, in refluxing CHCl₃ by chloride substitution of the RuH. Photolysis of 5a in CHCl₃ at room temperature afforded an oxidized product [RuCl₂(κ ²-S,N-imt^MPh)(PPh₃)₂] (6). Reaction of 6 with excess [imt^MPh]^? afforded 1. The molecular structures of 1·EtOH, 3·C₆H₁₄, 4b·0.25CH₃COCH₃, and 6·2CH₂Cl₂ have been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography.     

Markierte Vertreter eines möglichen Zwischenprodukts der Biosynthese von Fosfomycin inStreptomyces fradiae: Darstellung von (R,S)-(2-Hydroxypropyl)-, (R,S)-, (R)-, (S)-(2-Hydroxy-[1,1-2H2]propyl)-und (R,S)-(2-[18O]Hydroxypropyl)phosphonsäure

Summary Racemic methyl O-benzyllactate was reduced to the alcohol, transformed into the bromide and reacted with triethylphosphite to give the diethylphosphonate. Removal of protecting groups afforded a phosphonic acid which was purified as its cyclohexylammonium salt. (S)-Ethyl and (R)-isobutyl O-benzyllactate were reduced with LiAlD₄ to the corresponding dideuteriated alcohols, which were transformed in the same way as the racemic compound into the chiral (2-hydroxy-[1,1-²H₂]propyl)phosphonic acids. The optical purity of alcohols (S)- and (R)-6 b was determined by derivatisation with (+)-MTPA-Cl and¹H-NMR-spectroscopy to be 98%. Exchange of the carbonyl-16-oxygen atom of 2-oxopropylphosphonate for oxygen-18 from H₂ ¹⁸O, reduction with NaBH₄, deprotection and addition of cyclohexylamine yielded the salt (±)-18 of (2-[¹⁸O]hydroxypropyl)phosphonic acid.

     

New Synthetic Route to (1S)-4,5-Dimethoxy-1-[(methylamino)methyl] Benzocyclobutane,a Key Intermediate of Ivabradine

An efficient process for the preparation of (1S)-4,5-dimethoxy-1-[(methylamino)methyl] benzocyclobutane (S)-3 as ivabradine intermediate, which was obtained in 56% yield, is described. The salient feature of this process is the racemization of the undesired (1R)-4,5–dimethoxy-1,2-dihydrocyclobutabenzene-1-carboxylic acid (R)-12, and the overall yield of (S)-12 was improved to 70% by three resolutions of the racemized acid with R-(α)-phenylethanamine. The reduction of amide (S)-13 was achieved with NaBH₄-I₂ in refluxing tetrahydrofuran, giving the corresponding amine (S)-3 in 90% yield. The improved synthetic route described herein is cost-efficient, environmentally friendly and feasibile for scale-up production.

Enantioselective fluorescent recognition of mandelate by substituted BINOL in aqueous solutions

The fluorescent photo-induced electron transfer chemosensors (R)-1, (R)-2, (S)-1 and (S)-2 based on the 3,3′-positions of 1,1′-bi-2-naphthol were designed for their recognition of mandelate. The binding properties for mandelate were examined by the fluorescence spectra. The high fluorescence sensitivity and enantioselectivity make compound (R)-2 a practically useful sensor for the recognition of mandelate in CH₃OH/H₂O system (1:1, 0.01 M Tris–HCl buffer, pH 7.4).

Synthesis of 20<Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-protopanaxadiol <Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>-D-galactopyranosides

20S-Protopanaxadiol (3β,12β,20S-trihydroxydammar-24-ene) 3-, 12-, and 20-O-β-D-galactopyranosides were synthesized for the first time. Condensation of 12β-acetoxy-3β,20S-dihydroxydammar-24-ene (1) and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-galactopyranosylbromide (α-acetobromogalactose) (2) under Koenigs–Knorr conditions with subsequent removal of the protecting groups resulted in regio- and stereoselective formation of 20S-protopanaxadiol 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside, an analog of the natural ginsenoside Rh₂. Glycosylation of 12β,20S-dihydroxydammar-24-en-3-one (5) by 2 with subsequent treatment of the reaction products with NaBH₄ in isopropanol and deacetylation with NaOMe gave 20S-protopanaxadiol 12- and 20-O-β-Dgalactopyranosides.     

Synthesis, structure, and properties of a binuclear Fe(III) complex with N-(1-propanol)-N,N-bis(3-tert-butyl-5-methyl-2-hydroxybenxyl)amine

Mannich reaction of 2-Amino propanol, 2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol, and formaldehyde in the ratio of 1:2:2 provides a new compound, N-(1-propanol)-N,N-bis(3-tert-butyl-5-methyl-2-hydroxybenxyl)amine (H₃L), which has been characterized by X-ray crystallography and elemental analysis. In the presence of Et₃N, the reaction of H₃L and FeCl₃·6H₂O gives a dinuclear Fe(III) complex [Fe₂L₂] 1, which has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, magnetic measurement, and cyclic voltammetry. The value of μ_eff at room temperature (5.97 μ_B) is much less than the expected spin-only value (8.37 μ_B) of two high spin (hs) Fe³⁺ (S = 5/2) ions [μ = g[∑ZS(S + 1)]^1/2], indicating there are strong coupling interactions between Fe³⁺ ions. The magnetic behavior of 1 denotes the occurrence of intramolecular antiferromagnetic interactions (J = −13.35 cm⁻¹ ). CV of 1 reveals two reversible waves at 0.433 and 1.227 V versus AgCl/Ag, which can be ascribed to the successive redox coupling of Fe^IIFe^II/Fe^IIIFe^II and Fe^IIIFe^II/Fe^IIIFe^III, respectively.     

贫电子环丙烷衍生物与2-巯基苯骈噻唑的反应研究

贫电子环丙烷衍生物1以精制四氢呋喃为溶剂, 与2-巯基苯骈噻唑(2)封管加热反应, 得到产物3和4. 产物3经IR, MS, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR和元素分析等数据确定其结构为: (R)-β-取代-(R)-γ-(2-巯基)苯骈噻唑基-γ-对位取代苯基丁酸或(S)-β-取代-(S)-γ-(2-巯基)苯骈噻唑基-γ-对位取代苯基丁酸(3); 产物4通过IR, MS, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, 2D-NOESY谱和元素分析等数据确定其结构为: 反式-β-取代-γ-对位取代苯基-3-丁烯酸(4). 对生成产物的机理也进行了推测.     

Synthesis of (+)-1,3:2,5-dianhydroviburnitol ((+)-(1R,2R,3S,5R,6S)-4,7-dioxatricyclo[3.2.1.03,6]octan-2-ol)

Epoxidation of (?)-(1R,2R,4R)-2-endo-cyano-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-2-exo-yl acetate ((?)-5) followed by saponification afforded (+)-(1R,4R,5R,6R)-5,6-exo-epoxy-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one ((+)-7). Reduction of (+)-7 with diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAH) gave (+)-1,3:2,5-dianhydroviburnitol ( = (+)-(1R,2R,3S,4R,6S)-4,7-dioxatricyclo[3.2.1.0^3,6]octan-2-ol; (+)-3). Hydride reductions of (±)-7 were less exo-face selective than reductions of bicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one and its derivatives with NaBH₄, AlH₃, and LiAlH₄ probably because of smaller steric hindrance to endo-face hydride attack when C(5) and C(6) of the bicyclo-[2.2.1]heptan-2-one are part of an exo oxirane ring.     

Zinc(II) complexes derived from imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-ylacetic acid (HIP-2-ac): [Zn(IP-2-ac)2(H2O)] and unexpectedly, [Zn3(IP-2-ac)6(H2O)]·11H2O

Two zinc(II) complexes based on imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-2-ylacetate (IP-2-ac), [Zn(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O)] (1) and [Zn₃(IP-2-ac)₆(H₂O)]·11H₂O (2), were synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In both 1 and 2, zinc(II) ions are five-coordinate with N₂O₃ donor set, best described as a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. In 1, two IP-2-ac ligands chelate zinc(II) through a N,O donor set, whereas in 2, both bidentate and μ-bridging binding modes of IP-2-ac are observed. The crystal of 1 comprises discrete Zn(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O) coordination entities combined into layers by hydrogen bonds. Inter-layer stabilization of the 3-D crystal lattice is provided by weak C–H?O contacts and π?π interactions. The structure of 2 consists of discrete trinuclear Zn₃(IP-2-ac)₆(H₂O) coordination entities joined into crystal lattice by multiple water molecules.

Compound 1 was characterized by FTIR and FT-Raman spectroscopy, and in terms of thermal stability. Furthermore, its antibacterial activity was tested against selected gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria, and Candida albicans yeast and compared with activity of previously reported [M(IP-2-ac)₂(H₂O)₂]·2H₂O (M = Co, Ni, Mn, Cd) complexes.
