A Tri-Coordinate-Magnesium Silylamide Complex: {[(CH3)3Si]2N}2MgO(CH2CH2)2OMg{N[Si(CH3)3]2}2

The reaction of diethylmagnesium dioxane adduct solution with 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazan ((CH₃)₃SiNHSi(CH₃)₃) gives {[(CH₃)₃Si]₂N}₂MgO(CH₂CH₂)₂OMg{N[Si(CH₃)₃]₂}₂ (1); this alkoxomagnesium silylamide in the solid state contains unprecedented three-coordinate magnesium and oxygen atoms.     

Rhodium(II)-Catalyzed Decomposition of β,γ-Unsaturated Diazo Compounds

The Rh^II-catalyzed decomposition of β,γ-unsaturated diazo ketones 1 in the presence of MeOH leads via vinylogous Wolff rearrangement to γ,δ-unsaturated esters 6 (Schemes 1 and 2). A modest asymmetric induction is achieved when the reaction is carried out with chiral tetrakis(pyrrolidinecarboxylato)- or tetrakis(oxazolidinonato)dirhodium(II) complexes. Vinyl and phenyl diazoacetates 11 and 20 , respectively, or 1-diazo-3-phenyl-propan-2-one ( 25 ), when subjected to the same reaction conditions, react by OH insertion with MeOH (Schemes 3–5). In the absence of MeOH, phenyl diazoacetates 20 and 25 undergo intramolecular CH insertion to 22 and 26 , respectively. Intramolecular CH insertion occurs with N-aryldiazoamides 23 even in the presence of MeOH (Scheme 5).     

Solvent- and temperature-controlled in situ ligand reactions mediated by Cu(II) and 3'-[(E)-{[(1S,2S)-2-aminocyclohexyl]imino}methyl]-4'-hydroxy-4-biphenylcarboxlic acid

Three new compounds, CuL, CuL', and Cu(2)O(2)L'(2) (H(2)L = 3'-[(E)-{[(1S,2S)-2-aminocyclohexyl]imino}methyl]-4'-hydroxy-4-biphenylcarboxlic acid, H(2)L' = 3'-[(E)-{[(1S,2S)-2-aminocyclohexyl]imino}methyl]-4'-hydroxy-5'-nitro-4-biphenylcarboxlic acid, H(2)L' = 3'-(N,N-dimethylamino methyl)-4'-hydroxy-4-biphenylcarboxlic acid), were selectively synthesized through a controlled in situ ligand reaction system mediated by copper(II) nitrate and H(2)L. Selective nitration was achieved by using different solvent mixtures under relatively mild conditions, and an interesting and economical reductive amination system in DMF/EtOH/H(2) O was also found. All crystal structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Both CuL and CuL' display chiral 1D chain structures, whereas Cu(2)O(2)L'(2) possesses a structure with 13×16?? channels and a free volume of 41.4?%. The possible mechanisms involved in this in situ ligand-controlled reaction system are discussed in detail.     

Synthesis,characterization, and crystal structures of organonickel(II) complexes coordinated to novel 1‐bromo‐2,6‐bis{[(λ5‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}benzene NCN‐pincer ligands

A novel family of four 1‐bromo‐2,6‐bis{[(λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}benzene ligands has been synthesized and characterized. The phosphiniminomethyl substituents are decorated with either three phenyl groups, two phenyl and one cyclohexyl group, one phenyl and two cyclohexyl groups, or three cyclohexyl groups. Each ligand was metallated using zero‐valent nickel through an oxidative addition to form a family of organonickel(II) complexes, namely (2,6‐bis{[(triphenyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}phenyl‐κ³N,C¹,N′)bromidonickel(II) dichloromethane hemisolvate, [NiBr(C₄₄H₃₇N₂P₂)]·0.5CH₂Cl₂, (2,6‐bis{[(cyclohexyldiphenyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}phenyl‐κ³N,C¹,N′)bromidonickel(II) diethyl ether hemisolvate, [NiBr(C₄₄H₄₉N₂P₂)]·0.5C₄H₁₀O, (2,6‐bis{[(dicyclohexylphenyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}phenyl‐κ³N,C¹,N′)bromidonickel(II), [NiBr(C₄₄H₆₁N₂P₂)], and (2,6‐bis{[(tricyclohexyl‐λ⁵‐phosphanylidene)imino]methyl}phenyl‐κ³N,C¹,N′)bromidonickel(II), [NiBr(C₄₄H₇₃N₂P₂)]. This family of complexes represents a useful opportunity to investigate the impact of incrementally changing the steric characteristics of a complex on its structure and reactivity.     

Coordination compounds of copper(II) with substituted 3-{[(2-hydroxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}propane-1,2-diols

3-{[(2-Hydroxyphenyl)methylidene]amino}propane-1,2-diol, its 5-chloro-,5-bromo-, 5-nitro-, 3-methoxy derivatives, and 3-{[(2-hydroxynaphthyl-1)methylidene]amino}propane-1,2-diol react with hydrates of copper(II) chloride, bromide and nitrate in ethanol to form coordination compounds Cu(L)X·nH₂O. Template condensation reaction between 3-aminopropane-1,2-diol and 2,3-, 2,4- or 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehyde in the presence of copper(II) nitrate trihydrate results in similar compounds Cu(L)NO₃·nH₂O. Structure of some of the condensation products was identified by X-ray analysis. Thermolysis of the substances obtained occurs through the dehydration step (70–90°C) and complete thermal decomposition (290–560°C).     

4-{[(2-Hydroxyphenyl)imino]methyl}-1,2-benzenediol (HIMB) anchored Amberlite XAD-16: Preparation and applications as metal extractants

Amberlite XAD-16 was loaded with 4-{[(2-hydroxyphenyl)imino]methyl}-1,2-benzenediol (HIMB) via azo linker and the resulting resin AXAD-16-HIMB explored for enrichment of Zn(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Fe(III) and Co(II) in the pH range 5.0-8.0. The sorption capacity was found between 56 and 415 μmol g⁻¹ and the preconcentration factors from 150 to 300. Tolerance limits for foreign species are reported. The kinetics of sorption is not slow, as t_1/2 is ≤15 min. The chelating resin can be reused for seventy cycles of sorption-desorption without any significant change (<2.0%) in the sorption capacity. The limit of detection values (blank + 3 s) are 1.72, 1.30, 2.56, 2.10, 0.44, 2.93, 2.45 and 3.23 μg l⁻¹ for Zn, Mn, Ni, Pb, Cd, Cu, Fe and Co, respectively. The enrichment on AXAD-16-HIMB coupled with flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) monitoring is used to determine the metal ion ions in river and synthetic water samples, Co in vitamin tablets and Zn in powdered milk samples.

2‐{[(4‐Methylphenyl)sulfonyl]amino}phenyl 4‐methylbenzenesulfonate

The title compound, C₂₀H₁₉NO₅S₂, crystallizes as an almost 2:1 mixture of two molecular orientations (described as Orient‐A and Orient‐B). The consequences of these two orientations is the formation of three types of N—H...O hydrogen‐bonded dimers in which the (Orient‐A + Orient‐A) dimers are likely to be the most stable, while the mixed (Orient‐A + Orient‐B) dimers are more frequent. Extra interactions in the form of C—H...O and C—H...π interactions act to further stabilize these dimers and probably allow the less energetically favourable (Orient‐A + Orient‐B) and (Orient‐B + Orient‐B) hydrogen‐bonded dimers to exist by preventing their conversion to (Orient‐A + Orient‐A)‐only hydrogen‐bonded dimers during the crystal‐growth process.     

Rhodium(I)-Catalyzed ‘Metallo-Ene’ Cyclizations/β-Eliminations

Octadienyl carbonates 5 provide cyclic 1,4-dienes 6 when treated with Rh¹ complexes (1–10 mol-%) at 80°. Similar cyclization of cyclohexenyl acetate 8 affords cis- fused hexahydroindene 9 . Analogous ring closures of nonadienyl carbonate 10 yield preferably the cis-divinypyrrolidine 11 with Rh¹ catalysis but the trans-isomer 12 when catalyzed by Pd⁰. Azaoctadienyl carbonate 5a undergoes elimination with [RhH(PPh₃)₄] (5 mol-%, 80°) in MeCN giving acyclic triene. 7 .     

X‐ray investigations of sulfur‐containing fungicides. IV. 4′‐{[Benzoyl(4‐chlorophenylhydrazono)methyl]sulfonyl}acetanilide and 4′‐{[benzoyl(4‐methoxyphenylhydrazono)methyl]sulfonyl}acetanilide

The conformations of the two approximately isomorphous structures 4′‐{[benzoyl(4‐chloro­phenyl­hydrazono)­methyl]­sul­fonyl}acetanilide, C₂₂H₁₈ClN₃O₄S, and 4′‐{[benzoyl(4‐meth­oxy­phenyl­hydrazono)­methyl]­sulfonyl}acetanilide, C₂₃H₂₁N₃­O₅S, are stabilized by resonance‐assisted intramolecular hydrogen bonds linking the hydrazone moieties and sulfonyl groups. The stronger bond is observed in the former compound. The difference in electronic properties between the Cl atom and the methoxy group is too small to significantly alter the non‐bonding interactions of the sulfonyl and β‐­carbonyl groups.
