四氟乙烯齐聚体的反应 四氟乙烯四、五聚体和芳香胺的反应

前已报道四氟乙烯四聚体(全氟-3,4-甲基己烯-3)(1)、五聚体(全氟-3,4-二甲基-4-乙基己烯-2)(2)和脂肪烷氧以及脂肪胺的亲核反应.本文报道化合物1,2和芳香胺如苯胺、β-萘胺的反应.由于烯烃1、2双键处于分子中间,因而当亲核试剂进攻时,双键容易发生重排,生成的末端基烯烃更具反应性,故导致一取代、二取代、三取代以及环化降解等复杂产物.     

Crystal engineering of photochromic diarylethene single crystals

Photochromic performance of diarylethene single crystals was controlled by crystal engineering using non-covalent aromatic-aromatic interactions as the directional intermolecular force. A diarylethene derivative with two pentafluorophenyl groups, 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-pentafluorophenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a), formed stoichiometric co-crystals with benzene (Bz) and naphthalene (Np) by aryl-perfluoroaryl interactions. Face-to-face pi-stacking interactions between the pentafluorophenyl groups of 1a and the aromatic molecules are responsible for 2:1 and 1:1 stoichiometric compositions in 1a/Bz and 1a/Np co-crystals, respectively. The diarylethene underwent thermally stable and photoreversible photochromic reactions in a homo-crystal of 1a and co-crystals 1a/Bz and 1a/Np. The absorption spectra of the photogenerated closed-ring isomers varied depending on the conformation of the diarylethene molecules packed in the crystals. The diarylethene 1a also formed 1:1 stoichiometric co-crystals with different kinds of diarylethenes, 1,2-bis(2-ethyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (2a) and 1,2-bis[2-methyl-5-(1-naphthyl)-3-thienyl]perfluorocyclopentene (3a). Both co-crystals 1a/2a and 1a/3a showed photochromism. Although 1a, 2a, and 3a underwent efficient photocyclization reactions in their homo-crystals, highly selective photocyclization reactions of 2a or 3a were observed in the co-crystals. The selective reactions were confirmed by HPLC and X-ray crystallography. Excited energy transfers from 1a to 2a and from 1a to 3a are considered to occur and cause the selective reactions.     

Refolding foldamers: triazene-arylene oligomers that change shape with chemical stimuli

We describe the preparation of five triazene-arylene oligomers (3, 4, 7, 8, and 11) and investigations of their folding properties in aqueous solution. These oligomers contain four 2-fold rotors and populate a conformational ensemble comprising at least 10 states. Extensive 1D and 2D NMR studies as well as X-ray crystallography establish that the presence of three members of the cucurbit[n]uril family (CB[n]), CB[10], CB[7], and CB[8], results in the selective population of the (a,a,a,a)-, (a,s,s,a)-, and (a,a,a,s)-conformers. As a result of the high affinity and highly selective binding properties of the CB[n] family, it is possible to fold a single foldamer strand (3) into the CB[8].(a,a,a,s)-3 conformer by the addition of CB[8], then unfold and refold it into the CB[7].(a,s,s,a)-3.CB[7] conformer by addition of CB[7] and 3,5-dimethylaminoadamantane (17), then unfold and refold it again into the CB[10].(a,a,a,a)-3 conformer by addition of CB[10].CB[5] and aminoadamantane (18). The transformation of CB[8].(a,a,a,s)-3 into CB[7].(a,s,s,a)-3.CB[7] proceeds through the intermediacy of CB [8].(a,a,s,a)-3.CB[7], which enhances the rate of dissociation of strand 3 from CB[8].     

Synthesis, properties, and redox behavior of di(1-azulenyl)(2- and 3-thienyl)methyl cations and dications composed of two di(1-azulenyl)methylium units connected with 2,5-thiophenediyl and 2,5-thienothiophenediyl spacers

The titled stable monocations, di(1-azulenyl)(2- and 3-thienyl)methyl cations 7a,b and 8a,b and dications composed of two di(1-azulenyl)methylium units connected with 2,5-thiophenediyl and 2,5-thieno[3,2-b]thiophenediyl spacers 9a,b and 10a,b were prepared by hydride abstraction of the corresponding methane derivatives. These mono- and dications 7a,b, 8a,b, 9a,b, and 10a,b showed high stability with large pK(R)+ values. The values of monocations 7a,b and 8a,b were 11.2-11.8 +/- 0.1 and 11.4-12.4 +/- 0.1, respectively. Two cation units in dications 9a,b and 10a,b were neutralized via one step at the pH of 11.1-11.7 +/- 0.1, which corresponds to the average of the pK(R)+ values of the dications and half-neutralized monocations. Electrochemical behavior of 7a,b, 8a,b, 9a,b, and 10a,b was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Formation of the thienoquinoid products 18a,b and 19a,b from 9a,b and 10a,b was characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy under electrochemical reduction conditions. Chemical reduction of 9a,b and 10a,b with Zn powder in acetonitrile afforded 18a,b and 19a,b as deep-colored crystals, which exhibited rather high electron-donating ability.     

Modeling the inhibition of peptide deformylase by hydroxamic acids: influence of the sulfur donor

The first complexes containing both a sulfur atom and a hydroxamate moiety coordinated to a biologically relevant transition metal were synthesized as models for the structure of inhibited peptide deformylases. Two of these [(N(2)S)Zn(hydroxamate)] complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The first contains a thioether and a simple hydroxamate, the second a thiolate and a N-substituted hydroxamate. Isolation of a complex with a thiolate and a simple hydroxamate group was not possible.     

Synthesis of Some Novel Heterocyclic Xylidinyl Amines and Carboxamides

The xylidines 1a , 1b undergo condensation with ethyl cyanoacetate 2 and ethyl benzoyl acetate 15 to afford the cyano acetanilides 3a , 3b and the β‐diketones 16a , 16b , respectively. Compounds 3a , 3b react with hydrazine and phenyl hydrazine to afford the azine‐bis derivatives 5a , 5b and 7a , 7b , whereas 16a , 16b react with the same reagents to afford the pyrazolyl amine derivatives 17a , 17b and 18a , 18b , respectively. Compounds 3a , 3b react also with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal to afford the enaminonitriles 8a , 8b , whereas 16a , 16b react with the same reagent to afford only the enaminone 19b . The enaminonitriles 8a , 8b react with hydrazine and phenyl hydrazine to afford also the azine‐bis derivatives 11a , 11b and 14a , 14b , respectively.     

Fatty acids. II. The synthesis and gas-liquid chromatographic behaviour of five trimethylene-interrupted C18-diunsaturated fatty acids.

Five trimethylene-interrupted methyl octadecadiynoates, C18 delta-2a,-7a; delta-3a,-8a; delta-4a,-9a; delta-5a,-10a and delta-6a,-11a, and the corresponding cis,cis-octadecadienoates were synthesized, and their gas-liquid chromatographic properties were studied on Apiezon L, diethylene glycol succinate polyester and Silac 10C stationary phases. The equivalent chain lengths of these esters have been determined, and the separation of mixtures and the prediction of gas chromatographic behaviour of these isomers are discussed.     

Acyl- und Alkylidenphosphane. XVIII. Monoacetyl- und Diacetylphosphan

Acyl- and Alkylidenephosphines. XVIII. Monoacetyl- and Diacetylphosphine When triacetylphosphine 3a is treated with methanol 4 or benzyl alcohol 6 P? C(O) bonds are cleaved and a mixture of diacetyl- 2a and monoacetylphosphine 1a is formed. The thermally labile phosphine 1a decomposes completely within a few hours at +20°C; but 2a also reacts slowly within days to give triacetylphosphine 3a and further unknown compounds. As it is found by nmr-spectroscopic studies the acidic hydrogen atoms of monoacetylphosphine 1a are both bound to phosphorus. In liquid diacetylphosphine 2a or in solutions of this compound, However, there exists an equilibrium between the keto tautomer K- 2a with a PH and the enol tautomer E- 2a with an O? H? O group; compared with pentane-2,4-dione 8a the keto tautomerpredo minates in 2a . As in 1,3-diketones a low temperature and a small dielectric constant of the solvent increase the amount of enol tautomer E- 2a present. The ¹H-nmr resonance of the enolic hydrogen atom is observed at very low field (δ = 18,3 ppm).     

Photochromism of mixed crystals containing bisthienyl-, bisthiazolyl-, and bisoxazolylethene derivatives

Single crystals composed of two or three different kinds of diarylethenes, having similar geometrical structures but different colors in the closed-ring isomers, 1,2-bis(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1a), 1,2-bis(5-methyl-2-phenyl- 4-thiazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (2a), and 1,2-bis(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)perfluorocyclopentene (3a) have been prepared in an attempt to form single crystals which exhibit different colors, depending on illumination wavelengths. When 1a and 2a are mixed in ethanol and the content of 2a in the feed is higher than that of 1a, only a needle-shaped crystal is obtained. The crystal shape is similar to that of 2a. On the other hand, high content of 1a in the feed leads to formation of a block-shaped crystal, of which the shape is similar to that of 1a. At a feed ratio of 1:1 for 1a and 2a, two types of crystals such as needle- and block-shapes are obtained from the same batch. Mixed crystals composed of three kinds of derivatives 1a/2a/3a have also been prepared. A crystal composed of the three derivatives in the molar ratio of 32 (1a):53 (2a):15 (3a) was obtained. X-ray analysis proved that 1a and 3a are packed in the crystal lattice of 2a. The mixed crystal 1a/2a/3a changed color from colorless to yellow, red, and blue upon irradiation with light of appropriate wavelengths.     

Production of a positron microprobe using a transmission remoderator.

A production method for a positron microprobe using a beta+-decay radioisotope (22Na) source has been investigated. When a magnetically guided positron beam was extracted from the magnetic field, the combination of an extraction coil and a magnetic lens enabled us to focus the positron beam by a factor of 10 and to achieve a high transport efficiency (71%). A 150-nm-thick Ni(100) thin film was mounted at the focal point of the magnetic lens and was used as a remoderator for brightness enhancement in a transmission geometry. The remoderated positrons were accelerated by an electrostatic lens and focused on the target by an objective magnetic lens. As a result, a 4-mm-diameter positron beam could be transformed into a microprobe of 60 microm or less with 4.2% total efficiency. The S parameter profile obtained by a single-line scan of a test specimen coincided well with the defect distribution. This technique for a positron microprobe is available to an accelerator-based high-intensity positron source and allows 3-dimensional vacancy-type defect analysis and a positron source for a transmission positron microscope.     

PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF QUINOLYLMETHYLISOTHIORONIUM SALTS. GUANINE SELECTIVE DNA PHOTOCLEAVAGE REAGENTS

Quinolylmethylisothioronium salts (1a and 4a) cleave DNA upon irradiation. The cleavage is more than 10-fold enhanced by piperidine treatment and subsequently shows a high preference for guanines. Photolysis of 1a, 2a and 4a in water at lambda greater than 300 nm resulted in photoheterolysis. Irradiation of 1a in 2-propanol gave only products from photohomolysis, irradiation of 1a in methanol and 2a and 4a in 2-propanol resulted in products from both photoheterolysis and photohomolysis. Quantum yields for the disappearance of 1a in water and 2-propanol were determined. The presence or absence of oxygen had no effect in water, whereas oxidation products were observed upon irradiation in methanol and 2-propanol in the presence of oxygen. The guanine specific DNA photoreaction is proposed to take place by alkylation at N7 via the quinolylmethyl carbocation and thus to represent a photoalkylation.     

A cyclodextrin-based molecular shuttle containing energetically favored and disfavored portions in its dumbbell component

A molecular shuttle containing dodecamethylene units, 4, 4'-bipyridinium units, and alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD) has been prepared. Shuttling behavior is solvent- and temperature-sensitive and could be controlled by double interactions: hydrophobic interaction between a CD ring and a station and a repulsive interaction between a CD ring and a linker. This is a novel method to control the mobility of a bead in a molecular shuttle.     

Photochromic reactions of diarylethenes in single crystals with intermolecular O--H...N hydrogen-bonding networks

The crystal structures and photochromic performance of a single crystal of a diarylethene derivative possessing carboxyl groups, 1,2-bis(5-carboxyl-2-methyl-3-thienyl)perfluorocyclopentene (1 a), and cocrystals of 1 a with 4,4'-, 2,4'-, and 2,2'-bipyridines were examined. In crystal 1 a, a discrete cyclic structure was observed, in which four 1 a molecules are linked through hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl groups. In the homocrystal, photoreactive and photoinactive conformers of 1 a exist in the ratio of 1:1. In the cocrystals of 1 a with bipyridines, O--HN-type hydrogen bonds between 1 a and pyridyl groups were formed, and all 1 a molecules are fixed in a photoreactive conformation. Both the homocrystal 1 a and the cocrystals showed photochromic performances, and color variation from bluish-violet to cyan was observed, depending on the conformation of the packed diarylethene molecules.     

Synthesis of dihydrofuro[2,3‐b]pyridines by the reaction of 2‐amino‐4,5‐dihydro‐3‐furancarbonitriles with α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds

The reactions of 2‐amino‐4,5‐dihydro‐3‐furancarbonitriles 1a‐d with α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds in the presence of sodium ethoxide (0.1 equivalent) gave the corresponding Michael adducts 2a‐d , 3a‐d and 4a‐d. Compounds 2a‐d and 3a‐c reacted with sodium alkoxide (1 equivalent) to yield the corresponding 7a‐alkoxyhexahydrofuro[2,3‐b]pyridines 5a‐d, 6a‐d, 7a‐c and 8a‐c . Treatment of 5a‐d, 6a‐d, 7a‐c and 8a‐c with potassium tert‐butoxide produced the corresponding dihydrofuro[2,3‐b]pyridines 9a‐d and 10a‐c . The reaction of 4a‐c with sodium ethoxide (1 equivalent) afforded the corresponding dihydro‐furo[2,3‐b]pyridines 11a‐c .     

Reversible intramolecular C-C bond formation/breaking and color switching mediated by a N,C-chelate in (2-ph-py)BMes2 and (5-BMes2-2-ph-py)BMes2

A diboron compound with both 3-coordinate boron and 4-coordinate boron centers, (5-BMes2-2-ph-py)BMes2 (1) and its monoboron analogue, (2-ph-py)BMes2 (2) have been synthesized. Both compounds are luminescent but have a high sensitivity toward light. UV and ambient light cause both compounds to isomerize to 1a and 2a, respectively, via the formation of a C-C bond between a mesityl and the phenyl group, accompanied by a drastic color change from yellow or colorless to dark olive green or dark blue. The structures of 1a and 2a were established by 2D NMR experiments and geometry optimization by DFT calculations. Both 1a and 2a can thermally reverse back to 1 and 2 via the breaking of a C-C bond, with the activation barrier being 107 and 110 kJ/mol, respectively. The N,C-chelate ligands in 1 and 2 were found to play a key role in promoting this unusual and reversible photo-thermal isomerization process on a tetrahedral boron center. Reactions with oxygen molecules convert 1a and 2a to 5-BMes2-2-[(2-Mes)-ph]-pyridine (1b) and 2-(2-Mes)-ph-pyridine (2b), respectively.     

Electrophoresis of a rigid sphere in a Carreau fluid normal to a large charged disk

The electrophoresis of a rigid sphere in a Carreau fluid normal to a large disk is analyzed theoretically under the conditions of low surface potential and weak applied electric field. Previous analyses are extended to the case where a disk can be charged, and a more realistic electrostatic force formula is applied. We show that the qualitative behavior of a sphere depends largely on its distance from a disk, the thickness of double layer, and the nature of a fluid. In general, the presence of a disk has the effect of increasing the conventional hydrodynamic drag on a sphere, and a decrease in the thickness of the double layer surrounding a sphere has the effect of enhancing the shear-thinning effect. However, this might not be the case if a sphere is uncharged and a disk is charged, where the osmotic pressure field and the induced charge on the sphere surface can be significant. The shear-thinning effect is important only if the thickness of double layer is sufficiently thick. This result can play a significant role in practice such as in electrophoretic deposition, where the deposition electrode is charged and the fluid medium is usually of shearing-thinning nature.     

Modeling of the pseudo-colloids migration for multi-member decay chains with a arbitrary flux boundary condition in a fractured porous medium

A deep geologic disposal is the prime option for the long-term isolation of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) in many countries. For deeply located repositories, a radionuclide released from a failed waste container moves through the engineered and natural barriers before it reaches a biosphere. The pseudo-colloid which a radionuclide is adsorbed on a moving natural humic or fulvic colloid can be generated in a fractured porous medium. The size of a colloid is in general in the order of a hundred nanometer so that its migration velocity in a fracture is higher than that of a radionuclide due to the hydrochromatic effect. A large colloid cannot diffuse easily into a surrounding rock. Also, there are many kinds of actinides and these actinides have decay chains. In this analysis, the canonical form solution is derived for a pseudo-colloid and a solute in a fracture and a surrounding rock with a realistic inlet boundary condition with multi-member decay chains. It is used the Fortran based a computational code which uses a special subroutine for the inversion of Laplace transform. Consequently, the role of the pseudo-colloid in the fractured porous medium is important and also their decay chains aren’t neglected in the performance assessment of the HLW.     

Excitation dynamics in the LHCII complex of higher plants: modeling based on the 2.72 Angstrom crystal structure

We have modeled steady-state spectra and energy-transfer dynamics in the peripheral plant light-harvesting complex LHCII using new structural data. The dynamics of the chlorophyll (Chl) b-->Chl a transfer and decay of selectively excited "bottleneck" Chl a and b states have been studied by femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. We propose an exciton model of the LHCII trimer (with specific site energies) which allows a simultaneous quantitative fit of the absorption, linear-dichroism, steady-state fluorescence spectra, and transient absorption kinetics upon excitation at different wavelengths. In the modeling we use the experimental exciton-phonon spectral density and modified Redfield theory. We have found that fast b-->a transfer is determined by a good connection of the Chls b to strongly coupled Chl a clusters, i.e., a610-a611-a612 trimer and a602-a603 and a613-a614 dimers. Long-lived components of the energy-transfer kinetics are determined by a quick population of red-shifted Chl b605 and blue-shifted Chl a604 followed by a very slow (3 ps for b605 and 12 ps for a604) flow of energy from these monomeric bottleneck sites to the Chl a clusters. The dynamics within the Chl a region is determined by fast (with time constants down to sub-100 fs) exciton relaxation within the a610-a611-a612 trimer, slower 200-300 fs relaxation within the a602-a603 and a613-a614 dimers, even slower 300-800 fs migration between these clusters, and very slow transfer from a604 to the quasi-equilibrated a sites. The final equilibrium is characterized by predominant population of the a610-a611-a612 cluster (mostly the a610 site). The location of this cluster on the outer side of the LHCII trimer probably provides a good connection with the other subunits of PSII.     

Functionalized chloroenamines in aminocyclopropane synthesis - VI. Chlorotetrahydropyridines as a basis for the synthesis of 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0.]hexane derivatives

Enamines 8a-e could be chlorinated by equimolar amounts of N-chlorosuccinimide (9) generating monochloroenamines 10a-e; 10a and 10d were isolated as pure substances. Two equivalents of 9 afforded the dichloroenamines 12a,c from 8a,c. Interaction of the chlorinated enamines 10a-e and 12a,c with cyanide gave morpholino-azabicyclohexane derivatives. 10a-d, thereby, led to exo-cyano-isomers lla-c; 12a,c generated endo-cyano compounds 13a,c. In the case of the ethoxycarbonylated chloroenamine 10e a mixture of diastereomeric products 11e and 14e resulted from the analogous reaction. Reduction of 11a and 14e with lithium aluminum hydride produced a pair of diastereomeric triamines 15 and 16. A tricyclic diazasystem 19 was formed from the reaction of cyanide with the carbamoylated chloroenamine 18. Monochloroenamine 10a and dichloroenamine 12a showed a significant mutagenic behaviour in the Ames test.     

Re-entrant and induced mesophases: Mixed systems showing re-entrant TGBA and re-entrant cholesteric phases

We have investigated the behaviour of chiral carbohydrate-based trioxadecalines with a cyano group in mixed systems. The mixture of a trioxadecaline having a Ch phase and a trioxadecaline having a Ch, S_A and a S*_Cphase sequence induces a re-entrant TGB_A and Ch phase. Below the stabilized S*_C phase, a re-entrant Ch phase is observed. In the mixture of the cholesteric trioxadecaline with CCH7, itself only showing a nematic phase, a TGB_A phase and a broad range S_A phase are induced from two non-smectic compounds. Both mixtures show a blue phase with a pitch ranging from the UV to red depending on the molar fraction.
