Electron spin resonance study on the vanadium adsorption by persimmon tannin gel

The persimmon tannin gel can adsorb vanadium highly effectively from aqueous solutions containing VOCl(2) and NH(4)VO(3), respectively. The adsorption of vanadium from the VOCl(2) solution had a broad maximum at around pH 5-6, while that from the NH(4)VO(3) solution, a sharp maximum at around pH 3.75 and a broad one at around pH 5-6. The adsorption of vanadium by the gel from both VOCl(2) and NH(4)VO(3) solutions was rapid, and was obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The ESR spectrum of VO(2+) in the persimmon tannin gel showed a typical powder pattern with g-anisotropy and anisotropic hyperfine structure (I=7/2), with g(//)=1.937, g( perpendicular)=2.005, mid R:A(//)mid R:=552 MHz, and mid R:A( perpendicular)mid R:=168 MHz, suggesting a square pyramidal coordination structure of VO(2+)-persimmon tannin complex. The ESR analysis of vanadium adsorption from the NH(4)VO(3) solution (pH 6) indicated the reduction of VO(3)(-) to VO(2+). The high vanadium-adsorption ability of the persimmon tannin gel from the VOCl(2) solution was attributed to the stable complex formation of VO(2+) with catechol and pyrogallol groups in the gel, while the vanadium adsorption from the NH(4)VO(3) solution can be explained as the combination of H(3)VO(4) and VO(2+) adsorptions.

Puckered-boat conformation hexameric water clusters stabilized in a 2D metal-organic framework structure built from CuII and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid

1,2,4,5-Benzenetetracarboxylic acid (btcH(4)) reacts with Cu(NO(3))(2).6H(2)O to form 2D coordination polymeric structure [[Cu(2)(btc)(Py)(4).2H(2)O].4H(2)O](n), 1, in the presence of pyridine from water at room temperature. Puckered-boat-shaped hexameric water clusters resulting from four free water molecules and two water molecules coordinating to metal ions join these sheets to make a 3D network. These water clusters behave as pillars to join those sheets which is the key factor stabilizing the 3D network. Thermal analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, and X-ray structure analysis have been used to characterize this compound. Crystal data for 1 follow: triclinic space group P1, a = 8.905(3) A, b = 11.137(4) A, c = 17.484(2) A, alpha = 82.342(6) degrees, beta = 81.312(3) degrees, gamma = 82.361(4) degrees V= 1687.5(1)A(3), Z = 2, R1 = 0.0331, wR2 = 0.0886, S =1.066.     

Self-assembly of dialkyltin moieties and mercaptobenzoic acid into macrocyclic complexes with hydrophobic "pseudo-cage" or double-cavity structures: supramolecular infrastructures involving intermolecular C-H...S weak hydrogen bonds and pi-pi interactions

Four novel organotin complexes of two types--[R2Sn(o-SC6H4CO2)]6 (R = Me, 1 x H2O; nBu, 2) and {[R2Sn(m-CO2C6H4S)R2Sn(m-SC6H4CO2)SnR2]O}2 (R = Me, 3; nBu, 4)--have been prepared by treatment of o- or m-mercaptobenzoic acid and the corresponding R2SnCl2 (R = Me, nBu) with sodium ethoxide in ethanol (95%). All the complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR and NMR (1H, (3C, 119Sn) spectroscopy, TGA, and X-ray crystallography diffraction analysis. The molecular structure analyses reveal that both 1 and 2 are hexanuclear macrocycles with hydrophobic "pseudo-cage" structures, while 3 and 4 are hexanuclear macrocycles with double-cavity structures. Furthermore, the supramolecular structure analyses show that looser and more intriguing supramolecular infrastructures were also found in complexes 1-4, which exist either as one-dimensional chains of rings or as two-dimensional networks assembled from the organometallic subunits through intermolecular C-H...S weak hydrogen bonds (WHBs) and pi-pi interactions.

The NH---FC dipole orientation effect for pendant exocyclic CH(2)F

[structure: see text] DFT and MMFF force field calculations for 2 (R = H) predict that two conformers dominate in water (>/=95%) and both sustain a geometry in which the C-F and H-N dipoles align oppositely in a near-planar arrangement. The (1)H NMR spectra (D(2)O and DMSO-d(6)) and X-ray structure for 2 (R = SO(2)NHEt) confirm the predictions in all essentials. A novel single-conformer system is proposed.     

Metal-organic framework H-bonded like a polycatenane: coexistence of acyclic water trimer and nonamer

Pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid and 1,2-di-4-pyridylethylene react hydrothermally with nickel(II) nitrate, forming a metal-organic framework that forms a polycatenane-like structure through H-bonding interactions between water molecules and carboxylate O atoms with void spaces. Discrete acyclic trimeric and nonameric water clusters occupy the voids in the structures. X-ray powder diffraction and X-ray structure analysis have been used to characterize this compound. Crystal data for 1 {(3dpeH(2))[Ni(pdc)(2)](3).15H(2)O}: monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, a = 24.730(5) Angstroms, b = 19.895(2) Angstroms, c = 17.257(4) Angstroms, beta = 104.832(5) degrees, V = 8208(4) Angstroms(3), Z = 4, R1 = 0.0429, wR2 = 0.1072, and S = 1.051.     

"Heavy fluorous" cyclopentadienes and cyclopentadienyl complexes with three to five ponytails: facile syntheses from polybromocyclopentadienyl complexes, phase properties, and electronic effects

The reactions between [(eta5-C5H(5-x)Br(x))M(CO)3] (M = Re, Mn; x = 1, 3, 4, 5) and [IZn[(CH2)(n)R(f8)]] (n = 2, 3; R(f8) = (CF2)7CF3) in the presence of [Cl2PdL2] catalysts give the title complexes [[eta5-C5H(5-x)[(CH2)(n)R(f8)]x]M(CO)3]. In the case of x = 5, the major product is actually [[eta5-C5H[(CH2)(n)R(f8)]4]M(CO)3], in which one of the bromides has been substituted by hydride. Minor amounts of multiple hydride substitution products are formed, all of them readily separable on fluorous silica gel. Irradiation of the manganese complexes in CF3C6H5/MeOH/ether gives uncoordinated cyclopentadienes, which can be deprotonated and reattached to other metals. Partition coefficients have been measured (CF3C6F11/toluene): complexes with three or more ponytails are highly fluorophilic, with values of > 99.8: < 0.2. The IR [symbol: see text]CO bands have been used to probe the inductive effects of the ponytails at the metal centers.     

Isolation and purification of oridonin from Rabdosia rubescens using upright counter-current chromatography

A preparative counter-current chromatography (CCC) method for isolation and purification of oridonin, a new cancer chemoprevention agent, from the Chinese medicinal plant Rabdosia rubescens was successfully established. The crude oridonin was obtained by elution with a light petroleum/acetone solvent mixture from ethanol extracts of R. rubescens using column chromatography on silica gel. With a two-phase solvent system composed of n-hexane/ethyl acetate/methanol/water (1:2:1:2, v/v), 120 mg of oridonin at the purity of 97.8% was obtained from 200 mg of the crude sample in a single-step CCC separation. The structure of oridonin was identified by ESI-MS, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR.

Cobalt-catalyzed highly regio- and stereoselective intermolecular reductive coupling of alkynes with conjugated alkenes

In the presence of Co(PPh3)2I2, PPh3, water, and zinc powder, the reaction of alkynes (R1CCR2: R1 = Ph, R2 = Me (1a); R1 = Ph, R2 = Ph (1b); R1 = Et, R2 = Et (1c); R1 = Ph, R2 = (CH2)3OH (1d); R1 = CO2Et, R2 = Ph (1e); R1 = CO2Me, R2 = (CH2)4CH3 (1f); R1 = CO2Et, R2 = SiMe3 (1g)) with alkenes having an electron-withdrawing substituent (CH2=CHR: R = CO2Bu (2a), CN (2b), SO2Ph (2c) and CO2Me (2d)) proceeded smoothly in acetonitrile to give the corresponding reductive coupling products (R1HC=CR2CH2CH2R, 3a-j) in fair to excellent yields. This reductive coupling is highly regio- and stereoselective; only one isomer was observed for each reaction. The results of an isotope-labeling experiment using D2O (99%) to replace normal water for the reductive coupling of vinyl phenyl sulfone 2c with alkyne 1a revealed that the product is E-Ph(D)C=CMeCH2CH(D)SO2Ph deuterated at the olefinic proton and one of the protons of the alpha-methylene group in 84 and 96%, respectively. Possible mechanisms for this highly regio- and stereoselective ene-yne catalytic reaction are proposed.

Parametric study of factors affecting melamine-resorcinol-formaldehyde xerogels properties

Resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) xerogels are organic materials have been widely studied due to their industrially relevant characteristics, through which, RF gels have significant potential to be tailored to specific applications. Xerogel properties have been tailored, within this study, by altering the synthesis procedure with a focus on monomer concentrations, catalyst to monomer ratio, and the introduction of a nitrogen-rich precursor, thereby incorporating nitrogen into the structure to additionally affect the chemical properties of the final gel. Melamine (M) is used as the source of nitrogen, partially replacing the resorcinol (R) typically used, and resulting in a melamine-resorcinol-formaldehyde (MRF) gel; synthesis was facilitated by a sodium carbonate catalyst (C), as often used in RF gel production. R/C and R/F molar ratios, and M concentration ([M]), were chosen as parameters to study in-depth, as they have previously been shown to markedly influence sol-gel formation. The MRF gels produced were subsequently characterized to determine porous structure and chemical functionality. The results indicate that, texturally, increasing [M] produces a similar effect as increasing R/C values: increasing pore size, while decreasing surface area. Pore volume tends to increase when R/C or M increase individually but pore volume and surface area decrease drastically when both variables increase concurrently. Microporosity also tends to increase as R/C decreases, and as the concentration of M is decreased. Altering the gel matrix, by replacing M for R, results in a weakening of the gel structure, as the bridges formed during curing are reduced in quantity, which indicates a maximum level of substitution that can occur within these materials. Combined, these results suggest that nitrogen can be successfully incorporated into organic gel structures but that the interplay between process variables is crucial in determining final gel characteristics for specific applications.     

Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Inhibition of the K562 Cell Proliferation of N＇-Tertbutylaminocarbonyl-N-2-chlorophenoxyacetylthiourea

The title compound N'-tert-butylaminocarbonyl-N-2-chlorophenoxyacetylthiou- rea has been synthesized for the first time. Complete assignments were achieved by IR, 1H NHR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. The inhibitory rate of the cellular growth of K562 cells (chronic myeloid 1eukemic cells) was measured using MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazo-2-y1)-2,5-di- phenyltetra-zolium bromide] assay. The cell apoptosis was assessed by agarose gel electrophoresis to find that the title compound has antiproliferation and apoptosis inducing effects on K562 cells. In order to investigate the relationship between structure and activity of the target compound, we report its crystal structure and biological behavior in the present paper. Crystallographic data: C14H18- ClN3O3S, Mr = 343.82, orthorhombic, space group Pnma, a = 19.786(6), b = 6.789(2), c = 12.938(4) , V = 1738.0(9) 3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.314 g/cm3, F(000) = 720, μ(MoKα) = 0.354 mm-1, R = 0.0378 and wR = 0.0941.

The dehydration of SrTeO3(H2O)--a topotactic reaction for preparation of the new metastable strontium oxotellurate(IV) phase ε-SrTeO3

Microcrystalline single-phase strontium oxotellurate(IV) monohydrate, SrTeO(3)(H(2)O), was obtained by microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis under alkaline conditions at 180 °C for 30 min. A temperature of 220 °C and longer reaction times led to single crystal growth of this material. The crystal structure of SrTeO(3)(H(2)O) was determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data: P2(1)/c, Z = 4, a = 7.7669(5), b = 7.1739(4), c = 8.3311(5) ?, β = 107.210(1)°, V = 443.42(5) ?(3), 1403 structure factors, 63 parameters, R[F(2)>2σ(F(2))] = 0.0208, wR(F(2) all) = 0.0516, S = 1.031. SrTeO(3)(H(2)O) is isotypic with the homologous BaTeO(3)(H(2)O) and is characterised by a layered assembly parallel to (100) of edge-sharing [SrO(6)(H(2)O)] polyhedra capped on each side of the layer by trigonal-prismatic [TeO(3)] units. The cohesion of the structure is accomplished by moderate O-H···O hydrogen bonding interactions between donor water molecules and acceptor O atoms of adjacent layers. In a topochemical reaction, SrTeO(3)(H(2)O) condensates above 150 °C to the metastable phase ε-SrTeO(3) and transforms upon further heating to δ-SrTeO(3). The crystal structure of ε-SrTeO(3), the fifth known polymorph of this composition, was determined from combined electron microscopy and laboratory X-ray powder diffraction studies: P2(1)/c, Z = 4, a = 6.7759(1), b = 7.2188(1), c = 8.6773(2) ?, β = 126.4980(7)°, V = 341.20(18) ?(3), R(Fobs) = 0.0166, R(Bobs) = 0.0318, Rwp = 0.0733, Goof = 1.38. The structure of ε-SrTeO(3) shows the same basic set-up as SrTeO(3)(H(2)O), but the layered arrangement of the hydrous phase transforms into a framework structure after elimination of water. The structural studies of SrTeO(3)(H(2)O) and ε-SrTeO(3) are complemented by thermal analysis and vibrational spectroscopic measurements.     

Triorganotin cations stabilized by intramolecular SnN coordination; synthesis and characterization of {C,N,N′-2,6-bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenyl}diorganotin bromides

The synthesis of {2,6-bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]phenyl}diorganotin bromides, 2,6-(Me₂NCH₂)₂C₆H₃SnRR′⁺ Br^? is described. The compounds in which R = R′ = Me or Et and R = Me, R′ = Ph are extremely soluble in water and other polar solvents and insoluble or slightly soluble (R = R′ = Et) in apolar solvents. The diphenyl compounds shows the opposite solubility behaviour. The dimethyl compound is completely dissociated in water in to a triorganotin of 84.8 ohm^?1 cm^?1 (1/1 electrolyte). NMR spectroscopy reveals that the triorganotin cation has a TBP structure in which the N atoms occupy axial sites. Dynamic NMR spectra of the methylphenyl compound show that above ?90°C ratedetermining SnN dissociation occurs and that above 5°C second process, involving rate-determining rotation of the substituted aryl group around the (N₂)CSn bond begins.An X-ray investigation of single crystals of the dimethyl compound, which is unstable towards X-rays, establishes the ionic structure of the triorganotin halide in the solid (shortest SnBr 4.99 Å) as well as the molecular geometry of the triorganotin cation. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/n with Z = 4 in a unit cell of dimensions: a = 11.13(1), b = 16.73(2), c =10.10(1) Å, and β 114.2(1)°.     

Solvent-free Synthesis, Crystal Structure and Thermal Stability of Ionic Liquid 1-Hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium Bromide

Ionic liquid 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide [C16mim]Br was synthesized by solvent-free alkylation of N-methylimidzole with hexadecyl bromide. A large transparent single crystal of 1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide monohydrate （[C16mim]Br·H2O）, 4 mm in length, was firstly obtained in the water-trichloromethane-toluene growth system （Vwater＇Vtrichloromethane＇Vtoluene = 0.1：1：2）. The crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. It crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, with a = 5.4962（15）, b = 7.839（2）, c = 27.279（8） A, α = 94.375, β = 91.500, γ = 101.999°, Z = 2, V = 1145.2（5） A3, C20H41BrN2O, Mr = 405.46, Dc = 1.176 Mg/m3, μ = 1.804 mm^-1, F（000） = 436, the final R = 0.0523 and wR = 0.1345. The 3D supramolecular structure is constructed through weak interactions between imidazolium cations, Br- anions and lattice water molecules. The long alkyl chain to the imidazolium ring and lattice water molecules play an important role in the self-assembly process. Moreover, it is proposed that [C16mim]Br in water has aggregation behavior and the possible self-assembled structure is the interdigitated pattern. Finally, thermal stability of [C16mim][Br]·H2O was also studied by DSC and TGA analysis.     

Nucleophilic de-coordination and electrophilic regeneration of "hemilabile" pincer-type complexes: formation of anionic dialkyl, diaryl, and dihydride Pt(II) complexes bearing no stabilizing pi-acceptors

Novel anionic dialkyl, diaryl, and dihydride platinum(II) complexes based on the new "long-arm" hemilabile PCN-type ligand C6H4[CH2P(tBu)2](CH2)2N(CH3)2 with the general formula Li+[Pt(PCN)(R)2]- (R=Me (4), Ph (6) and H (9)) were prepared by reaction of [Pt(PCN)(R)] complexes (obtained from the corresponding chlorides) with an equivalent of RLi, as a result of the opening of the chelate ring. Alkylating agents based on other metals produce less stable products. These anionic d8 complexes are thermally stable although they bear no stabilizing pi acceptors. They were characterized by 1H, 31P[1H], 13C, and 7Li NMR spectroscopy; complex 9 was also characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography, showing that the Li+ ion is coordinated to the nitrogen atom of the open amine arm and to the hydride ligand (trans to the P atom) of a neighboring molecule (H--Li=2.15 A), resulting in a dimeric structure. Complexes 4 and 9 exhibit high nucleophilic reactivity, upon which the pincer complex is regenerated. Reaction of 4 with water, methyl iodide, and iodobenzene resulted in the neutral complex [Pt(PCN)(CH3)] (3) and methane, ethane, or toluene, respectively. Labeling studies indicate that the reaction proceeds by direct electrophilic attack on the metal center, rather than attack on the alkyl ligand. The anionic dihydride complex 9 reacted with water and methyl iodide to yield [Pt(PCN)(H)] (8) and H2 or methane, respectively.
