Cyclodextrin Complexation of the Stilbene 4-(2-(4-Tert-butylphenyl)ethen-1-yl)- benzoate and the Self-assembly of Molecular Devices

E-4-(2-(4- tert - butylphenyl) ethen-1- yl)benzoate, E-1^–, photoisomerizes to the Z-1^– isomer and vice versa in the free state and in the binary complexes 2·E-1^–, 2·Z-1^–, 3·E-1^– and 3·Z-1^– where 2 is the urea-linked cyclodextrin N-(6 ^A -deoxy--cyclodextrin-6 ^A - yl)-N-(6 ^A -deoxy--cyclodextrin-6 ^A - yl)urea and 3 is N,N- bis(6 ^A -deoxy--cyclodextrin-6 ^A - yl)urea. In 2·E-1^–and 3·E-1^– the stilbene occupies both cyclodextrin (CD) components of 2 and 3, whereas in 2·Z-1^– and 3·Z-1^– it only occupies one CD component while the other CD component is unoccupied. 4- tert - Butylphenolate, 4^–, and its carboxylate, 5^–, and sulfonate, 6^–, analogues form the ternary complex 2·Z-1^–·4^– and its analogues and also 3·Z-1^–·4^– and its analogues. These photoisomerize to 2·E-1^–and 3·E-1^– and either free 4^–, 57^– or 6^– and thereby function as molecular devices.     

Enantioselective synthesis of axially chiral 1-(1-naphthyl)isoquinolines and 2-(1-naphthyl)pyridines through sulfoxide ligand coupling reactions

Racemic 1-(1′-isoquinolinyl)-2-naphthalenemethanol rac-12 was prepared through a ligand coupling reaction of racemic 1-(tert-butylsulfinyl)isoquinoline rac-7 with the 1-naphthyl Grignard reagent 10. Resolution of rac-12 was achieved through chromatographic separation of the Noe-lactol derivatives 14 and 15, providing (R)-(−)-12 of >99% ee and (S)-(+)-12 of 90% ee. The ligand coupling reaction of optically enriched sulfoxide (S)-(−)-7 (62% ee) with Grignard reagent 10 furnished rac-12, with the absence of stereoinduction resulting from competing rapid racemisation of the sulfoxide 7. Reaction of optically enriched (S)-(−)-7 with 2-methoxy-1-naphthylmagnesium bromide was also accompanied by racemisation of the sulfoxide 7, and furnished optically active (+)-1-(2′-methoxy-1′-naphthyl)isoquinoline (+)-3b in low enantiomeric purity (14% ee). The absolute configuration of (+)-3b was assigned as R using circular dichroism spectroscopy, correcting an earlier assignment based on the Bijvoet method, but in the absence of heavy atoms. Optically active 2-pyridyl sulfoxides were found not to undergo racemisation analogous to the 1-isoquinolinyl sulfoxide 7, with the ligand coupling reactions of (R)-(+)- and (S)-(−)-2-[(4′-methylphenyl)sulfinyl]-3-methylpyridines, (R)-(+)-17 and (S)-(−)-17, with 2-methoxy-1-naphthylmagnesium bromide providing (−)- and (+)-2-(2′-methoxy-1′-naphthyl)-3-methylpyridines, (−)-18 and (+)-18, in 53 and 60% ee, respectively. The free energy barriers to internal rotation in 3b and 18 have been determined, and the isoquinoline (R)-(−)-12 examined as a ligand in the enantioselectively catalysed addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde; (R)-(−)-12 was also converted to (R)-(−)-N,N-dimethyl-1-(1′-isoquinolinyl)-2-naphthalenemethanamine (R)-(−)-19, and this examined as a ligand in the enantioselective Pd-catalysed allylic substitution of 1,3-diphenylprop-2-enyl acetate with dimethyl malonate.

Adsorptive stripping voltammetric measurements of trace amounts of platinum(II) and ruthenium(III) in the presence of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol

An extremely sensitive stripping voltammetric procedure for low level measurements of platinum (II, IV) or ruthenium (III, IV) is reported. The method is based on the interfacial accumulation of the platinum (II) or ruthenium (III)-1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol complex on the surface of a hanging mercury drop electrode, followed by the reduction of the adsorbed complex during the cathodic scan. The peak potential was found to be –0.8 V vs. Ag/AgCl electrode and the reduction current of the adsorbed complex ions of platinum (II) or ruthenium (III) was measured by differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry. The optimum experimental conditions were: 1.5×10^–7 mol/l of 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol solution of pH 9.3, preconcentration potential of –0.2 V, accumulation time of 3 min and pulse amplitude of 50 mV with 4 mV s^–1 scan rate in the presence of ethanol-water (30% v/v) — sodium sulphate (0.5 mol/l). Linear response up to 6.4 × 10^–8 and 5.1 × 10^–8 mol/l and a relative standard deviation (at 1.2×10^–8 mol/l) of 2.4 and 1.6% (n=5) for platinum (II) and ruthenium (III) respectively were obtained. The detection limits of platinum and ruthenium were 3.2×10^–10 and 4.1×10^–10 mol/l, respectively. The electronic spectra of the Pt(II) — PAN and Ru(III) — PAN complexes were measured at pH 9.3 and the stoichiometric ratios of the complexes formed were obtained by the molar ratio method. The effects of some interfering ions on the proposed procedure were critically investigated. The method was found suitable for the sub-microdetermination of ruthenium (IV) and platinum (IV) after their reduction to ruthenium (III) and platinum (II) with sulphur dioxide in acid media. The applicability of the method for the analysis of binary mixtures of ruthenium (III) and (IV) or platinum (II) and (IV) has also been carried out successfully. The method is simple, rapid, precise, and promising for the determination of the tested metal ions at micro-molar concentration level.     

Enantioselective syntheses of no-carrier-added (n.c.a.) (s)-4-chloro-2-[f] fluorophenylalanine and (s)-(α-methyl) -4-chloro-2-[f]fluorophenylalanine

(S)-4-Chloro-2-fluorophenylalanine and (S)-(α-methy)-4-chloro-2-fluorophenylalanine were synthesized and labeled with no carrier added (n.c.a.) fluorine-18 through a radiochemical synthesis relying on the highly enantioselective reaction between 4-chloro-2-[¹⁸F]fluorobenzyl iodide and the lithium enolate of (2S)-1-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-2-(tert-butyl)-3-methyl-1,3-imidazolidine-4-one for (S)-4-chloro-2-[¹⁸F]fluorophenylalanine and (2S,5S)-1-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)-2-(tert-butyl)-3,5-dimethyl-1,3-imidazolidine-4-one for (S)-(α-methyl) -4-chloro-2-[¹⁸F] fluorophenylalanine. Quantities of about 20–25 mCi were obtained at the end of sy nthesi s, ready for injection after hydrolysis and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purification, with a radiochemical yield of 17%–20% corrected to the end of bombardment after a total synthesis time of 90–105 min from [¹⁸F] fluoride. The enantiomeric excesses were shown to be 97% or more for both molecules without chiral separation and the radiochemical and chemical purities were 98% or better.     

Synthesis of 1-(alkylamino)- and 1-(dialkylamino)benzimidazoline-2-thiones

Unlike 1-aminobenzimidazoles, 1-alkylaminobenzimidazoles are thiolated on fusing with sulfur without elimination of theN-amino group, yielding the previously unknown 1-(alkylamino)benzimidazoline-2-thiones. These compounds can be more conveniently obtained on a preparative scale by thiolation of 1-alkylacetamidobenzimidazoles with subsequent hydrolytic elimination of the acetyl group. When 1-(dialkylamino)benzimidazoles are fused with sulfur, they are converted into 1-(dialkylamino)benzimidazoline-2-thiones. By alkylation of 1-(methylamino)- and 1-(diethylamino)benzimidazoline-2-thiones with methyl iodide in alkaline media the corresponding 2-(methylthio)benzimidazoles were prepared.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
