Photochemische reaktionen von übergansmetall-olefinkomplexen: III. [4 + 6]-cycloaddition konjugierter diene an hexacarbonyl-μ-η6:6(-1,1′-bi(2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-yl)dichrom(O)

UV irradiation of hexacarbonyl-μ-η^6:6-1,1′-bi(2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-yl)dichromium(O) (I) in THF in the presence of 1,3-butadiene (A), E-1,3-pentadiene (B) and EE-2,4-hexadiene (C) causes preferentially a twofold [4 + 6]-cycloaddition and formation of the hexacarbonyl-μ-2–5 : 8.9-η-2′–5′ : 8′,9′-η-11,11′-bi(bicyclo-[4.4.1]undeca-2,4,8-trien-11-yl)dichromium(O) complexes (IVA–IVC). Partial decomplexation after the first [4 + 6]-cycloaddition yields isomeric tricarbonyl-2–5:8,9-η- (IIA–IIC) and tricarbonyl-2′–7′-η-{11-(2′,4′,6′-cycloheptatrien-1′-yl)bicyclo[4.4.1]undeca-2,4,8-triene}chromium(O) complexes (IIIA–IIIC). With 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene (D) mainly dicarbonyl-2–6 : 2′–4′-η-{1-(2′,3′-dimethyl-3′-buten-1′,2′-diyl)-7-(8″,9″-dimethylbicyclo[4.4.1]undeca-2″, 4″,8″-trien-11″-yl)cyclohepta-3,5-dien-2-yl}chromium(O) (VD) besides small amounts of pentacarbonyl-μ-2–6 : 2′–4′-η-2″–7″-η-{1-(2′,3′-dimethyl-3′-buten-1′,2′-diyl)-7-(2″, 4″,6″-cycloheptatrien-1″-yl)cyclohepta-3,5-dien-2-yl}dichromium(O) (VID) and tricarbonyl-2′-7′-η-{11-(2′,4′,6′-cycloheptatrien-1′-yl)-8,9-dimethyl-bicyclo[4.4.1]undeca-2,4,8-triene}-chromium(O) (IIID) is obtained. VD adds readily CO to yield tricarbonyl-2–5 : 8,9-η-11,11′-bi(8,9-dimethyl-bicyclo[4.4.1]undeca-2,4,8-trien-11-yl)chromium(O) (VIID). Finally D adds to VID under formation of pentacarbonyl-μ-2–6 : 2′–4′-η-2″–5″ : 8″,9″-η-{1-(2′,3′-dimethyl-3′-buten-1′,2′-diyl)-7-(8″,9″-dimethyl-bicyclo[4.4.1]- undeca-2″,4″,8″-trien-11″-yl)cyclohepta-3,5-dien-2-yl}dichromium(O) (VIIID). From IVA–IVC the hydrocarbon ligands (IXA–IXC) can be liberated by P(OCH₃)₃ in good yields. The structures of the compounds IIA–IXC were determined by IR     

Novel Approaches to Synthesis of 4-Alkyl-6-amino-5-cyano-3-methyl(propyl, phenyl)-2H,4H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles

We have obtained 4-alkyl-6-amino-5-cyano-3-methyl(propyl, phenyl)-2H,4H-pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles by reaction of 4-alkylmethylene-3-substituted 5-pyrazolones with malononitrile or cyanothioacetamide.

Bromination of compound 3 furnished bis‐1,3‐{5′‐bromo‐6′‐arylimidazo[2,1‐b][1,3,4]thiadiazol‐2‐yl}‐1,2,2‐trimethylcyclopentane ( 4 ). The structural assignment of these compounds was supported by IR, ¹H NMR and elemental analysis data. The antimicrobial, anti‐inflammatory and antifungal activities of some of the compounds have also been evaluated.     

Synthesis of new functionally substituted hetarylcarbamates from methyl {4-[(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">E</Emphasis>)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-prop-2-enoyl]phenyl}carbamate

Three-component condensation of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl}- carbamate with ninhydrin and L-proline in methanol–water (10: 1) afforded methyl {4-[1,3-dioxo-1′- (4-methoxyphenyl)-1,1′,2′,3,5′,6′,7′,7a′-octahydrospiro[indene-2,3′-pyrrolizin]-2′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate. Heating of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoyl]phenyl}carbamate with isatin and benzylamine in methanol gave methyl {4-[4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxo-5′-phenyl-1,2-dihydrospiro[indole-3,2′-pyrrolidin]-3′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate. The condensation of methyl {4-[(2E)-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2- enoyl]phenyl}carbamate with sarcosine and 11H-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxalin-11-one generated in situ from ninhydrin and o-phenylenediamine in boiling ethanol led to the formation of methyl {4-[4′-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1′-methyl-11,11a-dihydro-5aH-spiro[benzo[b]phenazine-6,2′-pyrrolidin]-3′-ylcarbonyl]phenyl}carbamate.     

Synthese von diastereo- und enantio-selektiv deuterierten β,ε-, β,β-, β,γ- und γ,γ-Carotinen

Synthesis of Diastereo- and Enantioselectively Deuterated β,ε-, β,β-, β,γ- and γ,γ-Carotenes We describe the synthesis of (1′R, 6′S)-[16′, 16′, 16′-²H₃]-β, εcarotene, (1R, 1′R)-[16, 16, 16, 16′, 16′, 16′-²H₆]-β, β-carotene, (1′R, 6′S)-[16′, 16′, 16′-²H₃]-γ, γ-carotene and (1R, 1′R, 6S, 6′S)-[16, 16, 16, 16′, 16′, 16′-²H₆]-γ, γ-carotene by a multistep degradation of (4R, 5S, 10S)-[18, 18, 18-²H₃]-didehydroabietane to optically active deuterated β-, ε- and γ-C₁₁-endgroups and subsequent building up according to schemes \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}${\rm C}_{11} \to {\rm C}_{14}^{C_{\mathop {26}\limits_ \to }} \to {\rm C}_{40} $\end{document} and C₁₁ → C₁₄; C₁₄+C₁₂+C₁₄→C₄₀. NMR.- and chiroptical data allow the identification of the geminal methyl groups in all these compounds. The optical activity of all-(E)-[²H₆]-β,β-carotene, which is solely due to the isotopically different substituent not directly attached to the chiral centres, is demonstrated by a significant CD.-effect at low temperature. Therefore, if an enzymatic cyclization of [17, 17, 17, 17′, 17′, 17′-²H₆]lycopine can be achieved, the steric course of the cyclization step would be derivable from NMR.- and CD.-spectra with very small samples of the isolated cyclic carotenes. A general scheme for the possible course of the cyclization steps is presented.     

Conformation and ortho steric effects in a series of 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)quinolines

Nine 2-(pyrazol-1-yl)-4-methylquinolines bearing substituents on the pyrazole 3- or 5-positions (H, Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu) were regioselectively synthesized either using the direct condensation of 2-chloro-4-methylquinoline and sodium salt of 3(5)-substituted pyrazoles or by treatment of 2-hydrazino-4-methylquinoline with an appropriate β-ketoaldehyde. The ¹H and ¹³C chemical shifts were discussed taking into account the preferred conformation about the C-2-N-1′ bond as calculated by the AM1 Hamiltonian. It appears that 5-ethyl and 5-isopropyl substituted derivatives present short C-H-N-1 interactions. Ortho steric effects appear to be responsible for these conformations.     

A Theoretical Study on the Tautomerism of C-Carboxylic and Methoxycarbonyl Substituted Azoles

DFT calculations (B3LYP/6-31+G^**) have been carried out on 106 tautomers and conformers of NH-azoles bearing CO₂H and CO₂CH₃ groups. The following azoles systems have been studied: 2-substituted pyrroles, 2-substituted indoles, 2-substituted imidazoles, 2-substituted benzimidazoles, 4(5)-substituted imidazoles, 3(5)-substituted pyrazoles, 3-substituted indazoles (1H and 2H), 3,4(5)-substituted-1,2,3(5)-triazoles, 2,3(5)-substituted-1,2(3),4-triazoles, 4(5)-1,2,3,4(5)-tetrazoles. In the case of pyrazole, 3,5-disubstituted derivatives have also been computed, including four dimers.Dedicated to our friend Professor Vladimir I. Minkin on his 70th anniversary.     

Inner-sphere oxidation of a ternary dipicolinatochromium(III) complex involving a malonic acid co-ligand

The oxidation of a ternary complex of chromium(III), [Cr^III(DPA)(Mal)(H₂O)₂]^?, involving dipicolinic acid (DPA) as primary ligand and malonic acid (Mal) as co-ligand, was investigated in aqueous acidic medium. The periodate oxidation kinetics of [Cr^III(DPA)(Mal)(H₂O)₂]^? to give Cr(VI) under pseudo-first-order conditions were studied at various pH, ionic strength and temperature values. The kinetic equation was found to be as follows: \( {\text{Rate}} = {{\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]\left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} } \right]_{\text{T}} \left( {{{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]\left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} } \right]_{\text{T}} \left( {{{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{k_{5} K_{5} + k_{6} K_{4} K_{6} } {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right]}}} \right)} {\left\{ {\left( {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{4} } \right) + \left( {K_{5} \left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{6} K_{4} } \right)\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]} \right\}}}} \right. \kern-0pt} {\left\{ {\left( {\left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{4} } \right) + \left( {K_{5} \left[ {{\text{H}}^{ + } } \right] + K_{6} K_{4} } \right)\left[ {{\text{IO}}_{4}^{ - } } \right]} \right\}}} \) where k ₆ (3.65 × 10^?3 s^?1) represents the electron transfer reaction rate constant and K ₄ (4.60 × 10^?4 mol dm^?3) represents the dissociation constant for the reaction \( \left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} \left( {\text{DPA}} \right)\left( {\text{Mal}} \right)\left( {{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right)_{2} } \right]^{ - } \rightleftharpoons \left[ {{\text{Cr}}^{\text{III}} \left( {\text{DPA}} \right)\left( {\text{Mal}} \right)\left( {{\text{H}}_{2} {\text{O}}} \right)\left( {\text{OH}} \right)} \right]^{2 - } + {\text{H}}^{ + } \) and K ₅ (1.87 mol^?1 dm³) and K ₆ (22.83 mol^?1 dm³) represent the pre-equilibrium formation constants at 30 °C and I = 0.2 mol dm^?3. Hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was found to enhance the reaction rate, whereas sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) had no effect. The thermodynamic activation parameters were estimated, and the oxidation is proposed to proceed via an inner-sphere mechanism involving the coordination of IO₄ ^? to Cr(III).     

Investigation of routes to indeno[2,1-f] -2H-1,2,4-triazepinediones

The synthesis of a number of 3-(substituted thiosemiearbazido)-2-(a]koxycarbonyl)indones (1) from 2-alkoxycarbonyl-1, 3-indandiones and substituted thiosemicarbazides is described. Cyeliza-tion of compounds 1 in the presence of a variety of catalysts gave substituted Δ²-1,2,4-triazoline-5-thiones (³) and (⁴), instead of the expected substituted 3(4H)-thioxoindeno[2,1-f]-2H-1,2,4-triazepine-5(5aH),6-diones (2). The preparation of 4-(2-methyl-1,3-dioxo-2-indanylmethyl)semi-carbazide ( 9 ) is reported. Cyelization of 9 gave 5,5a-dihydro-5a-methylindeno[2,1-f]-2H-1,2,4-triazepine-3(4H),6-dione ( 10 ). Structure assignments of these compounds are discussed.     

Polyfluoroethers from 2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluoropentanediol and bis(chloromethyl) ether and bishalomethyl-substituted aromatic compounds

The polyfluoroethers \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ {\rm \rlap{--}[OCH}_{\rm 2} {\rm XCH}_{\rm 2} {\rm OCH}_{\rm 2} ({\rm CF}_{\rm 2} )_3 {\rm CH}_{\rm 2} \rlap{--} ]_n $\end{document} (X = O, 1,3-C₆H₄, 1,4-C₆H₄ or 4,4′-C₆H₄OC₆H₄) and copolymers (X = 1,3- and 1,4-C₆H₄) having inherent viscosities in acetone >0.5 dl/g were prepared in good yields by treatment of the mixture of sodium salts obtained from 2,2,3,3,4,4-hexafluoropentanediol and an excess of sodium hydride in tetramethylene sulfone (TMS)-tetrahydrofuran or TMS-petroleum ether with the appropriate bishalomethyl compound. The polymers varied from highly extensile elastomeric gums when X = O or 1,3-C₆H₄ to a leathery material when X = 4,4′-C₆H_4?OC₆H₄. Glass transition temperatures ranged from -43°C when X = 0 to 6°C when X = 4,4′-C₆H₄OC₆H₄. The polymers started to lose weight (by thermogravimetry) at 220–250°C in oxygen and at 250–290°C in nitrogen. However, the xylylene polymers underwent structural changes even at room temperature, as reflected by changes in solution viscosity. Attempts to cure the polymer when X = O with peroxides were unsuccessful.

Ruthenium(II/IV) complexes with potentially tridentate Schiff base chelates containing the uracil moiety

Herein we report the synthesis and characterization of trans-[Ru^IICl₂(PPh₃)₃] with potentially tridentate Schiff bases derived from 5,6-diamino-1,3-dimethyl uracil (H₂ddd) and two 2-substituted aromatic aldehydes. In the diamagnetic ruthenium(II) complexes, trans-[RuCl(PPh₃)₂(Htdp)] (1) {H₂tdp = 5-((thiophen-3-yl)methyleneamino)-6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil} and trans-[RuCl(PPh₃)₂(Hsdp)] (2) {H₂sdp = 5-(2-(methylthio)benzylideneamino)-6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil}, the Schiff base ligands (i.e. Htdp and Hsdp) act as mono-anionic tridentate chelators. Upon reacting 5-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)-6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil (H₃hdp) with the metal precursor, the paramagnetic complex, trans-[Ru^IVCl₂(ddd)(PPh₃)₂] (3), was isolated, in which the bidentate dianionic ddd co-ligand was formed by hydrolysis. The metal complexes were fully characterized via multinuclear NMR-, IR-, and UV–Vis spectroscopy, single crystal XRD analysis and conductivity measurements. The redox properties were probed via cyclic voltammetry with all complexes exhibiting comparable electrochemical behavior with half-wave potentials (E_½) at 0.70 V (for 1), 0.725 V (for 2), and 0.68 V (for 3) versus Ag|AgCl, respectively. The presence of the paramagnetic metal center for 3 was confirmed by ESR spectroscopy.

Lanthanide Complexes of Polyacid Ligands derived from 2, 6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine,pyrazine, and 6, 6′-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)-2, 2′-bipyridine: Synthesis and luminescence properties

The synthesis of three novel pyrazole-containing complexing acids, N,N,N′,N′-{2, 6-bis[3-(aminomethyl)pyrazol-1-yl]-4-methoxypyridine}tetrakis(acetic acid)( 1 ), N,N,N′,N′-{2, 6-bis[3-(aminomethyl)pyrazol-1-yl]pyrazine}-tetrakis(acetic acid) ( 2 ), and N,N,N′,N′-{6, 6′-bis[3-(aminomethyl)pyrazol-1-yl]-2, 2′-bipyridine}tetrakis(acetic acid) ( 3 ) is described. Ligands 1–3 formed stable complexes with Eu^III, Tb^III, Sm^III, and Dy^III in H₂O whose relative luminescence yields, triplet-state energies, and emission decay lifetimes were measured. The number of H₂O molecules in the first coordination sphere of the lanthanide ion were also determined. Comparison of data from the Eu^III and Tb^III complexes of 1–3 and those of the parent trisheterocycle N,N,N′,N′-{2, 6-bis[3-(aminomethyl)pyrazol-l-yl]pyridine}tetrakis(acetic acid) showed that the modification of the pyridine ring for pyrazine or 2, 2′-bipyridine strongly modify the luminescence properties of the complexes. MeO Substitution at C(4) of 1 maintain the excellent properties described for the parent compound and give an additional functional group that will serve for attaching the label to biomolecules in bioaffinity applications.     

Stereoselective synthesis of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine α- and β-D-ribonucleosides from anomerically pure D-ribofuranosyl chlorides: Solid-Liquid Phase-Transfer Glycosylation and 15N-NMR Spectra

Solid-liquid phase-transfer glycosylation (KOH, tris[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethye]amine ( = TDA-1), MeCN) of pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines such as 3a and 3b with an equimolar amount of 5-O-[(1,1 -dimethylethyl)dimethylsilyl]-2,3-O-(1-methylethylidene)-α-D -ribofuranosyl chloride (1) [6] gave the protected β-D -nucleosides 4a and 4b , respectively, stereoselectively (Scheme). The β-D -anomer 2 [6] yielded the corresponding α-D -nucleosides 5a and 5b with traces of the β-D -compounds. The 6-substituted 7-deazapurine nucleosides 6a , 7a , and 8 were converted into tubercidin (10) or its α-D -anomer (11) . Spin-lattice relaxation measurements of anomeric ribonucleosides revealed that T₁ values of H? C(8) in the α-D -series are significantly increased compared to H? C(8) in the β-D -series while the opposite is true for T₁ of H? C(1′). ¹⁵N-NMR data of 6-substituted 7-deazapurine D -ribofuranosides were assigned and compared with those of 2′-deoxy compounds. Furthermore, it was shown that 7-deaza-2′deoxyadenosine ( = 2′-deoxytubercidin; 12 ) is protonated at N(1), whereas the protonation site of 7-deaza-2′-deoxyguanosine ( 20 ) is N(3).     

Dynamic 1H NMR spectroscopy of η2-ethylene transition metal complexes

The low-temperature ¹H NMR spectra of bis(ethylene)trimethylphosphinenickel (1), η⁵-cyclopentadienyl(ethylene)methylnickel (2a), bis(ethylene)-η⁵-cyclopentadienylcobalt (2b), [bis(1-ethyl-2,4,6-triphenylphosphorinyl)nickel]P,P′-nickel(ethylene) (3) and η⁵-cyclopentadienyl(ethylene)hydrido(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium (4) exhibit {AA′B′B} (1) {ABB′A} (2a and 2b), {ABA′B′} (3) or {ABCD} (4) spin patterns, respectively, for the complexed ethylene. A full line shape analysis including all the proton couplings was performed for the ethylene rotation in 1, 2a and 2b. In addition to olefin rotation, a reversible intramolecular β-H-elimination was confirmed for 4 by magnetization transfer experiments.     

Thermochemical properties of the coordination complex of 8-hydroxyquinolinato-bis-(salicylato) praseodymium (III)

The product, [Pr(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₉H₆NO)], which was formed by praseodymium nitrate hexahydrate, salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃), and 8-hydroxyquinoline (C₉H₇NO), was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, UV spectra, IR spectra, molar conductance, and thermogravimetric analysis. In an optimalizing calorimetric solvent, the dissolution enthalpies of [Pr(NO₃)₃·6H₂O(s)], [2 C₇H₆O₃(s) + C₉H₇NO(s)], [Pr(C₇H₅O₃)₂(C₉H₆NO)(s)], and [solution D (aq)] were measured to be, by means of a solution-reaction isoperibol microcalorimeter, $ \begin{gathered}\Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta}\left[ {{ \Pr }\left( {{\text{NO}}_{ 3} } \right)_{ 3} \cdot 6{\text{H}}_{ 2} {\text{O}}\left( {\text{s}} \right), 2 9 8. 1 5{\text{ K}}} \right] \, = - ( 20. 6 6 { } \pm \, 0. 29)\,{\text{kJ}}\,{\text{mol}}^{ - 1} , \\\Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } \left[ { 2 {\text{C}}_{7} {\text{H}}_{ 6} {\text{O}}_{ 3} \left( {\text{s}} \right) +{\text{ C}}_{ 9} {\text{H}}_{ 7} {\text{NO}}\left( {\text{s}}\right),{ 298}. 1 5 {\text{ K}}} \right] \, = \, ( 4 2. 2 7 { }\pm \, 0. 3 1)\,{\text{kJ}}\,{\text{mol}}^{ - 1} , \\\Updelta_{\text{s}} H_{\text{m}}^{\theta } \left[ {{\text{solutionD }}\left( {\text{aq}} \right), 2 9 8. 1 5 {\text{ K}}} \right] \,= - \left( { 8 9. 1 5 { } \pm \, 0. 4 3}\right)\,{\text{kJ}}\,{\text{mol}}^{ - 1} , \\\end{gathered} $ Δ s H m θ [ Pr ( NO 3 ) 3 · 6 H 2 O ( s ) , 2 9 8.1 5 K ] = ?

The Radical Anions of 5,5′- and 6,6′-Biazulenyl

ESR. and, in part, ENDOR. studies are reported on the radical anions of 5,5′-and 6,6′-biazulenyl ( 1 and 2 , resp.), as well as on their 1, 1′, 3, 3′-tetradeuterioderivatives ( 1 -d₄ and 2 -d₄). The reduction processes of 1 and 2 leading to these radical anions (\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ 1^{\ominus \atop \dot{}}$\end{document} and \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ 2^{\ominus \atop \dot{}}$\end{document}) and the dianions ( ) have been investigated by polarography and cyclic voltammetry. The half-wave reduction potential of 1 and the π-spin distribution in \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ 1^{\ominus \atop \dot{}}$\end{document} are consistent with the model of two weakly interacting azulene π-systems, whereas the analogous findings for 2 and \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ 2^{\ominus \atop \dot{}}$\end{document} point to a strong interaction between two such systems. This difference can be traced to the distinct inequality ∥c₆₅ ∥ « ∥ c₆₆ ∥ in the LCAO coefficients c_6μ at the centres μ=5 and 6 for the LUMO Ψ₆ of azulene.
