Atmospheric chemistry of 3-pentanol: kinetics, mechanisms, and products of Cl atom and OH radical initiated oxidation in the presence and absence of NOX

Smog chamber/FTIR techniques were used to study the atmospheric chemistry of 3-pentanol and determine rate constants of k(Cl+3-pentanol) = (2.03 +/- 0.23) x 10 (-10) and k(OH+3-pentanol) = (1.32 +/- 0.15) x 10 (-11) cm (3) molecule (-1) s (-1) in 700 Torr of N 2/O 2 diluent at 296 +/- 2 K. The primary products of the Cl atom initiated oxidation of 3-pentanol in the absence of NO were (with molar yields) 3-pentanone (26 +/- 2%), propionaldehyde (12 +/- 2%), acetaldehyde (13 +/- 2%) and formaldehyde (2 +/- 1%). The primary products of the Cl atom initiated oxidation of 3-pentanol in the presence of NO were (with molar yields) 3-pentanone (51 +/- 4%), propionaldehyde (39 +/- 2%), acetaldehyde (44 +/- 4%) and formaldehyde (4 +/- 1%). The primary products of the OH radical initiated oxidation of 3-pentanol in the presence of NO were (with molar yields) 3-pentanone (58 +/- 3%), propionaldehyde (28 +/- 2%), and acetaldehyde (37 +/- 2%). In all cases the product yields were independent of oxygen concentration over the partial pressure range 10-700 Torr. The reactions of Cl atoms and OH radicals with 3-pentanol proceed 26 +/- 2 and 58 +/- 3%, respectively, via attack on the 3-position to give an alpha-hydroxyalkyl radical, which reacts with O 2 to give 3-pentanone. The results are discussed with respect to the literature data and atmospheric chemistry of 3-pentanol.     

原发性脑蛛网膜下腔出血的临床分析

为探讨原发性脑蛛网膜下腔出血的诊断和治疗，对1993～2003年住院的10例原发性脑蛛网膜下腔出血患者进行了回顾性分析。结果表明，10例患者中，5例描述有爆裂样头痛，2例头颅CT检查阴性，经腰穿检查确诊。治愈2例，占20％；好转3例，占30％；死亡5例，占50％。提示爆裂样头痛是主要的、但非特异的特征，所有患者均须行CT扫描，如CT阴性则应行腰穿检查。原发性脑蛛网膜下腔出血的死亡率很高，进一步探讨其诊断和治疗仍有积极的临床意义。

Palladium-mediated N-arylation of heterocyclic diamines: insights into the origin of an unusual chemoselectivity

The chemoselectivity of the palladium-mediated reaction of bromobenzene with various heterocyclic diamines was studied. Whatever the ligand used, 3-aminopyrrolidine underwent arylation of the secondary amine function (>82%), whereas the more flexible 3-aminoazepinine was arylated on its primary function (>70%). The ratio "arylation of primary amine versus arylation of secondary amine" of 3-aminopiperidine with bromobenzene varied from 90:10 (BINAP, electron-enriched and hindered biphenyls L2 or L3) to 32:68 with the Josiphos-type ligand L10. The same trend was observed when 4-aminopiperidine was used (82:18 with L2 and 17:83 with L10). This selectivity can be tuned by the choice of aryl halide partners having different steric and electronic properties. A cooperative effect of both nitrogens of diamines during the reaction was deduced from competitive experiments. Finally, 13C and 31P NMR experiments, carried out with 3-aminopyrrolidine at room temperature, support a fast coordination of the primary amine to the metal. Indeed, a palladium complex resulting from the unusual displacement of one phosphane group of the intermediate ArPdX(BINAP) by the primary amino group was characterized.     

Efficient and selective aerobic oxidation of alcohols into aldehydes and ketones using ruthenium/TEMPO as the catalytic system.

The combination of RuCl2(PPh3)3 and TEMPO affords an efficient catalytic system for the aerobic oxidation of a variety of primary and secondary alcohols, giving the corresponding aldehydes and ketones, in >99% selectivity in all cases. The Ru/TEMPO system displayed a preference for primary vs secondary alcohols. Results from Hammett correlation studies (rho = -0.58) and the primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/kD = 5.1) for the catalytic aerobic benzyl alcohol oxidations are inconsistent with either an oxoruthenium (O=Ru) or an oxoammonium based mechanism. We postulate a hydridometal mechanism, involving a "RuH2(PPh3)3" species as the active catalyst. TEMPO acts as a hydrogen transfer mediator and is either regenerated by oxygen, under catalytic aerobic conditions, or converted to TEMPH under stoichiometric anaerobic conditions.

Asymmetric synthesis of (4R,5R)-cytoxazone and (4R,5S)-epi-cytoxazone

(4R,5R)-Cytoxazone has been prepared in four steps and in 61% overall yield and >98% ee. Conjugate addition of lithium (R)-N-benzyl-N-[small alpha]-methylbenzylamide to tert-butyl (E)-3-(p-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate and subsequent in situ diastereoselective enolate oxidation with (+)-(camphorsulfonyl)oxaziridine gave tert-butyl (2R,3R,[small alpha]R)-2-hydroxy-3-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3-(N-benzyl-N-[small alpha]-methylbenzylamino)propanoate in >98% de. Subsequent N-benzyl deprotection to the primary [small beta]-amino ester via hydrogenolysis, oxazolidinone formation with C(2)-retention by treatment with diphosgene and chemoselective ester reduction furnishes (4R,5R)-cytoxazone. The synthesis of the C(5)-epimer, (4R,5S)-epi-cytoxazone in 44% overall yield, has also been completed via a protocol involving N-Boc protection of the primary [small beta]-amino ester, utilization of the N-Boc group to facilitate simultaneous C(2)-inversion and oxazolidinone formation, and subsequent reduction.     

Solid-phase synthesis of hydroxysteroid derivatives using the diethylsilyloxy linker

Four different types of hydroxysteroids (primary alcohol, secondary alcohols, and phenol), bearing either an oxirane or an azide as a precursor of molecular diversity, were linked in good yields to solid support using the butyldiethylsilane polystyrene (PS-DES) resin. These molecules were then used as scaffolds to generate hydroxysteroid derivatives containing two levels of diversity. The proposed libraries were tested by running steroidal alcohols through a model sequence of reactions (solid-phase coupling, aminolysis of oxirane or reduction of azide, amidation, and final cleavage). As a result, two linked secondary alcohols (17beta-hydroxy-spiro-3(R)-oxirane-5alpha-androstane and 3beta-hydroxy-spiro- 17(S)-oxirane-5alpha-androstane) and a primary alcohol (spiro-17(S)-oxirane-3-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3,5(10)-estratriene) afforded good overall yields (>45%) and high HPLC purities (>90%) of hydroxysteroids derivatized as alkylamides without purification. One limitation was noted for the fourth library: the phenolic steroid linked by the diethylsilyloxy linker gave a poor overall yield of 8% of the desired model compound. Finally, the diethylsilyloxy linker was used successfully for a rapid solid-phase synthesis of a model library of twenty C19-steroid derivatives (3beta-amido-3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-androstane-17-ones), with an average yield of 53% and average HPLC purity of 97% without purification steps.     

(Benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl)tris[phosphine] (C6H3(PH2)3) and (Benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl)tris[phosphonic Acid] (C6H3[P(O)(OH)2]3). Absence of Hydrogen Bonding in Solid Primary Phosphines

The prolonged photo‐Arbuzov reaction (3 weeks, Hg lamp) of 1,3,5‐trichloro‐benzene with a large excess of trimethyl phosphite (as a solvent) at 50° gives moderate yields of dimethyl (3,5‐dichlorophenyl)phosphonate ( 1 ; 14.5%), tetramethyl (5‐chloro‐1,3‐phenylene)bis[phosphonate] ( 2 ; 35.4%), and hexamethyl (benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl)tris[phosphonate] ( 3 ; 30.1%). The products can be separated by fractional distillation. Acid hydrolysis of the esters gives almost quantitative yields of the corresponding phosphonic acids 4 – 6 . Reduction of the esters 1 – 3 by LiAlH₄ in tetrahydrofuran affords the primary phosphines (3,5‐dichlorophenyl)phosphine ( 7 ; 46.5%), (5‐chloro‐1,3‐phenylene)bis[phosphine] ( 8 ; 34.5%) and (benzene‐1,3,5‐triyl)tris[phosphine] ( 9 ; 25.2% yield). In the crude reduction products from 2 (preparation of 8 ) and from 3 (preparation of 9 ), (3‐chlorophenyl)phosphine and (1,3‐phenylene)bis[phosphine], respectively, are observed as by‐products. All compounds are characterized by standard analytical, spectroscopic, and (for 1, 7 , and 8 ) structural techniques. The arrangement of the molecules in the crystal structures of 7 and 8 suggest that H‐bonding between the primary arylphosphines is virtually insignificant for the packing of the components. This is in marked contrast to the importance of H‐bonding for the supramolecular chemistry of arylamines. The new primary polyphosphines and polyphosphonic acids are to be employed in the construction of extended arrays.     

Photoinduced release of nitroxyl and nitric oxide from diazeniumdiolates

Aqueous photochemistry of diazen-1-ium-1,2,2-triolate (Angeli's anion) and (Z)-1[N-(3-aminopropyl)-N-(3-aminopropyl)amino]diazen-1-ium-1,2-diolate (DPTA NONOate) has been investigated by laser kinetic spectroscopy. In neutral aqueous solutions, 266 nm photolysis of these diazeniumdiolates generates a unique spectrum of primary products including the ground-state triplet (3NO-) and singlet (1HNO) nitroxyl species and nitric oxide (NO*). Formation of these spectrophotometrically invisible products is revealed and quantitatively assayed by analyzing a complex set of their cross-reactions leading to the formation of colored intermediates, the N2O2*- radical and N3O3- anion. The experimental design employed takes advantage of the extremely slow spin-forbidden protic equilibration between 3NO- and 1HNO and the vast difference in their reactivity toward NO*. To account for the kinetic data, a novel combination reaction, 3NO-+1HNO, is introduced, and its rate constant of 6.6x10(9) M-1 s-1 is measured by competition with the reduction of methyl viologen by 3NO-. The latter reaction occurring with 2.1x10(9) M-1 s-1 rate constant and leading to the stable, colored methyl viologen radical cation is useful for detection of 3NO-. The distributions of the primary photolysis products (Angeli's anion: 22% 3NO-, 58% 1HNO, and 20% NO*; DPTA NONOate: 3% 3NO-, 12% 1HNO, and 85% NO*) show that neither diazeniumdiolate is a highly selective photochemical generator of nitroxyl species or nitric oxide, although the selectivity of DPTA NONOate for NO* generation is clearly greater.     

Atmospheric chemistry of CF3CH2CH2OH: kinetics, mechanisms and products of Cl atom and OH radical initiated oxidation in the presence and absence of NOX

Relative rate techniques were used to study the kinetics of the reactions of Cl atoms and OH radicals with CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H and CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH in 700 Torr of N(2) or air diluent at 296 +/- 2 K. The rate constants determined were k(Cl+CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H) = (1.81 +/- 0.27) x 10(-11), k(OH+CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H) = (2.57 +/- 0.44) x 10(-12), k(Cl+CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH) = (1.59 +/- 0.20) x 10(-11), and k(OH+CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH) = (6.91 +/- 0.91) x 10(-13) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). Product studies of the chlorine initiated oxidation of CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH in the absence of NO show the sole primary product to be CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H. Product studies of the chlorine initiated oxidation of CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH in the presence of NO show the primary products to be CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H (81%), HC(O)OH (10%), and CF(3)C(O)H. Product studies of the chlorine initiated oxidation of CF(3)CH(2)C(O)H in the absence of NO show the primary products to be CF(3)C(O)H (76%), CF(3)CH(2)C(O)OH (14%), and CF(3)CH(2)C(O)OOH (< or =10%). As part of this work, an upper limit of k(O(3)+CF(3)CH(2)CH(2)OH) < 2 x 10(-21) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) was established. Results are discussed with respect to the atmospheric chemistry of fluorinated alcohols.     

A complete look at the multi-channel dissociation of propenal photoexcited at 193 nm: branching ratios and distributions of kinetic energy

We observed fifteen photofragments upon photolysis of propenal (acrolein, CH(2)CHCHO) at 193 nm using photofragment translational spectroscopy and selective vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization. All the photoproducts arise from nine primary and two secondary dissociation pathways. We measured distributions of kinetic energy of products and determined branching ratios of dissociation channels. Dissociation to CH(2)CHCO + H and CH(2)CH + HCO are two major primary channels with equivalent branching ratios of 33%. The CH(2)CHCO fragment spontaneously decomposes to CH(2)CH + CO. A proportion of primary products CH(2)CH from the fission of bond C-C of propenal further decompose to CHCH + H but secondary dissociation HCO → H + CO is negligibly small. Binary dissociation to CH(2)CH(2) (or CH(3)CH) + CO and concerted three-body dissociation to C(2)H(2) + CO + H(2) have equivalent branching ratios of 14%-15%. The other channels have individual branching ratios of ～1%. The production of HCCO + CH(3) indicates the formation of intermediate methyl ketene (CH(3)CHCO) and the production of CH(2)CCH + OH and CH(2)CC + H(2)O indicate the formation of intermediate hydroxyl propadiene (CH(2)CCHOH) from isomerization of propenal. Distributions of kinetic energy release and dissociation mechanisms are discussed. This work provides a complete look and profound insight into the multi-channel dissociation mechanisms of propenal. The combination of a molecular beam apparatus and synchrotron VUV ionization allowed us to untangle the complex mechanisms of nine primary and two secondary dissociation channels.     

An investigation of secondary ion yield enhancement using Bi n 2+ (n=1, 3, 5) primary ions

We have investigated secondary ion yield enhancement using Bin2+ (n=1, 3, 5) primary ions impacting phenylalanine, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE), cholesterol, Irganox 1010, and polymer films adsorbed on silicon and aluminum. Secondary ion yields are increased using Bi2+and Bi3(2+) primary ions for the molecular layers and polymers that can undergo allyl cation rearrangements. For Irganox 1010, the deprotonated molecular ion yields (m/z 1175; [M-H]-) are one to two times larger for Bi2+ and Bi(3)2+ primary ions than for Bi+ and Bi3+ at the same primary ion velocities. In the positive ion mode, the largest fragment ion yield (m/z 899) is 1.5 times larger for Bi2+ ions than for Bi+. For Bi3(2+) the largest fragment ion yield is only 70% of the ion yield using Bi3+, but the secondary ion yields of the fragment ions at m/z 57 and 219 are enhanced. For polymers that can undergo allyl cation rearrangement reactions the secondary ion yield enhancements of the monomer ions range from 1.3 to 4.3. For Bi(5)2+ primary ions, secondary ion yields were the same or slightly larger than for Bi5+ in the negative ion mass spectra for Irganox 1010, but lower in the positive ion mode. No secondary ion yield enhancements were measured on polymer samples for Bi5(2+). For all polymer films studied, secondary ion intensities from the oligomer regions are substantially decreased using Bin2+ (n=1, 3, 5). We discuss differences in the ionization mechanisms for doubly and singly-charged Bi primary ion bombardment.

Esterification and Chemoselective Synthesis of R-Tetrahydrothiazo-2- thione-4-carboxylic Esters Catalyzed by TiCl4

A series of esters of R-tetrahydrothiazo-2-thione-4-carboxylic acid[R-TTCA] was synthesized by direct esterification of R-TTCA with alcohols(CH3OH,C2H5OH,n-C3H7OH,i-C3H7OH,n-C4H9OH,sec-C4H9OH)in the presence of TiCl4 as the catalyst at room temperature without using any other solvent or dehydrant in high yields,91.6%-99.1% for primary alcohols and 55%- 80% for secondary alcohols.The catalyst has a strong chemoselective activity for the esterification of primary alcohols with R-TTCA in the presence of secondary alcohols.Owing to high yield,high chemoselectivity,and mild conditions used,this is an efficient method for the esterification of primary alcohols with R-TTCA.     

An efficient synthesis of cyclodextrin-based carbohydrate cluster compounds

[formula: see text] The photoaddition of the thiol 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-1-thioglucopyranose to the allyl ether functions of per-2-allyl-, per-6-allyl-, and per-2,6-diallyl-beta-cyclodextrin derivatives provides a remarkably simple and efficient way for attaching glucopyranose units onto (1) the secondary face, as well as (2) the primary face, of beta-cyclodextrin--not to mention (3) both the primary and secondary faces, simultaneously--in yields of up to 70%.     

Lanthanum(III) isopropoxide catalyzed chemoselective transesterification of dimethyl carbonate and methyl carbamates

A practical transesterification of less reactive dimethyl carbonate and much less reactive methyl carbamates with primary (1°), secondary (2°), and tertiary (3°) alcohols was established with the use of a lanthanum(III) complex, which was prepared in situ from lanthanum(III) isopropoxide (3 mol %) and 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethanol (6 mol %). In particular, corresponding carbonates and carbamates obtained were of synthetic utility from the viewpoint of the selective protection and/or deprotection of 1°-, 2°-, and 3°-alcohols.
