Homolytic displacement at carbon: XI. Intramolecular homolytic displacement as a route to cyclopentane and tetrahydrofuran derivatives from hex-5-enyl- andhex-3-oxo-5-enylcobaloximes

5-Methylhex-5-enylcobaloxime reacts with carbon tetrachloride and with fluorotrichloromethane at 80–100°C to give substantially pure 1-methyl-1-(β,β,β-trichloroethyl)- and 1-methyl-1-β-fluoro-β,β-dichloroethyl)-cyclopentane. Hex-5-enylco-baloxime also gives trichloroethylcyclopentane from carbon tetrachloride, but the yield is dependent on the concentration of carbon tetrachloride. Similar cyclisation to give trichloroethyl- or fluorodichloroethyltetrahydrofuran is observed in the reactions of hex-3-oxo-5-enylcobaloxime with carbon tetrachloride and fluorotrichloromethane. However, no cyclisation was observed in the reactions of the ester, hex-2-one-3-oxo-5-enylcobaloxime, with carbon tetrachloride. These reactions are believed to take place by attack of a polyhalogenomethyl radical at the terminal unsaturated carbon of the organic ligand, followed either by an intramolecular homolytic displacement in which the carbon radical at position-5 attacks carbon-1 with displacement of cobaloxime(II), or by a halogen atom abstraction.     

Two new spectrophotometric reagents for copper

Two ferroin-type compounds are proposed as spectrophotometric reagents for copper(I): 6-methyl-2-pyridylhydrazidine, which forms a yellow complex with lambda(max) 426 nm and molar absorptivity 700 l.mole(-1).mm(-1), and 3-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine, which forms a red-orange complex with (lambda)max 492 nm and molar absorptivity of 955 l.mole(-1).mm(-1). These reagents are specific for copper and the complexes can be extracted into isopentanol for increased sensitivity.     

Fluorimetric Analysis of Aluminum in Diluted Hemodialysis Solutions by Using a Novel Schiff Base

A spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for trace amount of aluminum(III) by using a novel Schiff base, N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,4-diaminobuthane (BUTAS), and 4-methyl-2-aminophenol (OAP). Since the aluminum complexes are generally fluorescent, aluminum(III) increases the fluorescence intensity of BUTAS-OAP by formation of Al-BUTAS-OAP complex. The fluorescence of the complex is measured at an excitation wavelength of 410 nm with an emission at 526 nm. Aluminum(III) can be detected within a concentration limit of 0.11–1.62 ppb and the lowest detection limit being 0.07 ppb. The proposed method was applied to diluted hemodialysis solution and spectrofluorimetric data was compared with data of standard pharmacopoeia method.     

A promising class of luminescent derivatives of Silver(I) and Gold(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene

Starting from proligand 1-methyl-2-(phenyl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-2-iumchloride ( 1 .HCl), 1-methyl-2-(phenyl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine silver(I)chloride, ( 2 ) has been prepared. Synthesis, structures and photophysical properties of (2,2^/−bipyridyl)-1-methyl-2-(phenyl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridinesilver(I)hexaflurophosphate, ( 3 ), 1-methyl-2-(phenyl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridinesilver(I)carbazolate, ( 4 ) and 1-methyl-2-(phenyl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridinegold(I)carbazolate, ( 5 ) are focused. Herein we have first reported the NHC-Ag-(bpy/carbazole). All the complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, various spectroscopic studies and finally screened for luminescent properties. All the complexes are strongly emissive. Solid state structures of 2 , 3 , 4 and 5 have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies. Conventionally, complex 2 adopts linear geometry whereas complex 3 embraces triangular planar geometry around Ag; complex 4 and 5 clinches linear geometry around Ag/Au. All the complexes absorb light within 275–343 nm. Complex 3 is luminous at ~407 mn, whereas complex 4 and 5 luminous at ~360 nm having short life time 1.00–6.97 ns. The quantum yield (Φ_em) of the complexes varies 0.106–0.186. It is expected variation of luminescence arises due to change of metal and the chromophore (bpy/carbazole). Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Temparature Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) calculations were performed to verify crystallographically derived parameters and to calculate the UV–Vis properties of the ground state as well as of the first excited state of the complexes.     

Fluorescence studies of selected 2-alkylaminopyrimidines

The reactions of 2-chloropyrimidine with methylamine, ethylamine and piperidine gave the corresponding 2-N-methylamino-, 2-N-ethylamino- and 2N- piperidinopyrimidines, respectively. The fluorescence properties of these alkylamino derivatives in chloroform, ethyl acetate, carbon tetrachloride, acetone, ether, ethanol and methanol were studied. All the alkylamino derivatives showed the highest fluorescence intensity in polar protic solvents; thus 2-N-methylaminopyrimidine (highest fluorescence intensity at 377 nm when excited at 282 nm) and 2-N-ethylaminopyrimidine (highest fluorescence intensity at 375 nm, when excited at 286 nm) showed the highest fluorescence in methanol. In ethanol, 2-N-piperidinopyrimidine showed a fluorescence peak at 403 nm when excited at 360 nm and in chloroform it fluoresced at 392 nm when excited at 356 nm.     

Solvent extraction of lanthanum(III), europium(III) and lutetium(III) with fluorinated 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazolones into chloroform

A series of chelating reagents, 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-(2-fluorobenzoyl)-5-pyrazolone, 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-(3-fluorobenzoyl)-5-pyrazolone and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-5-pyrazolone, has been synthesized. The extraction of Ln(III), (Ln = La, Eu and Lu) into chloroform with these reagents at 30 +/- 1 degrees has been studied. The composition of the complexes extracted has been determined by the slope method, and the extraction constants K(ex), were measured. The presence of the fluorine atom in the reagents does not make the K(ex), values much different from those obtained with the parent pyrazolone.     

NH2 stretching vibration absorption and association mechanism of methylamine in n-hexane and carbon tetrachloride

Hydrogen bonding of methylamine in n-hexane is studied by recording the NH₂ stretching vibration absorption as a function of temperature and concentration and comparing it to the absorption in carbon tetrachloride. A continuous or quasi-continuous shift of the symmetric NH₂ stretching vibration on association in hexane and a discontinuous shift by about the same total amount together with an intensity change between a monomeric and an associated band in carbon tetrachloride suggest different association mechanisms in the two solvents. These are related to the enhancement of the proton donor or acceptor ability of the amine resulting from complexation with the solvent in carbon tetrachloride and to a similar influence of the added amine molecules, corresponding to the concept of hydrogen bond cooperativity, in hexane. Differences of 3–5 kJ mol⁻¹ between the mean association energy of methylamine in hexane and of methylamine or its homologues in carbon tetrachloride can be attributed to the energy needed for disruption of the complexes with the chlorine solvent and therefore support the assumption of the complex formation. Further results concern the chain-length dependence of the amine association, the association degrees in the two solvents and the intensity behaviour of the symmetric vibration of the neat compound in i.r. and Raman spectra.     

Spectrophotometric determination of vanadium(V) as a mixed thiocyanate-4-pyridone complex

The spectrophotometric determination of vanadium(V) as a mixed thiocyanate-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-4-pyridone (HX) complex and as a mixed thiocyanate-3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-(4-tolyl)-4-pyridone (HY) complex is described. The extracted complexes in chloroform have a maximum absorbance at 450 and 650 nm. The optimal conditions for the extraction and spectrophotometric determination of vanadium(V) are determined. The solutions of the V-SCN-HX and V-SCN-HY complexes in chloroform obey Beer's law in the range 1–10 ppm of vanadium, and are stable for at least 24 hr. The molar absorptivity of the method is 6.8 × 10³ liters mol^?1 cm^?1. The molar ratio V:SCN:HX (HY) of the extracted complex is 1:1:2.     

Formation of π-Allyl Palladium Complexes from Tertiary Alcohols

Reactions of 2-methyl-2-propanol, 2-methyl-2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-pentanol, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexanol, and 1-ethyl-1-cyclohexanol with palladium(II) tetraaqua complex in a perchloric acid medium give carbonyl and aromatic compounds, as well as the corresponding palladium -allyl complexes. The complexes were isolated from the reaction mixtures by way of formation of 2,2'-bipyridine complexes and characterized by the elemental analyses and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra. The main direction of transformation of acyclic alcohols is formation of complexes with no alkyl substituents at the central carbon atom of the allyl ligand; with cyclic alcohols, exocyclic complexes are formed.

Utilization of organogallium and organoindium compounds as alkylation reagents in organic synthesis: the addition of trialkylgallium and trialkylindium to aldehydes catalyzed by Lewis acids

The utilization of organogallium and organoindium compounds as alkylation reagents to aldehydes was realized with titanium tetrachloride as the strong Lewis acid catalyst. Furthermore, the catalytic asymmetric addition of organogallium to aldehydes was investigated with chiral titanium complexes, which were formed from titanium tetrachloride and salan ligands, with mediocre to good chemical yields and enantioselectivities.

Fluorescence reaction and complexation equilibria between norfloxacin and aluminium (III) ion in chloride medium

Norfloxacin, 1-ethyl-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-7-(1-piperazinyl)-3-quinoline carboxylic acid (NORH), reacts with aluminium(III) ion forming the strongly fluorescent complex [Al(HNOR)]³⁺, in slightly acidic medium. The complex shows maximum emission at 440 nm with excitation at 320 nm. The fluorescence intensity is enhanced upon addition of 0.5% sodium dodecylsulphate. Fluorescence properties of the Al-NOR complex were used for the direct determination of trace amounts of NOR in serum. The linear dependence of fluorescence intensity on NOR concentration, at a NOR to Al concentration ratio of 1:10, was found in the concentration range 0.001–2 μg/ml NOR with a detection limit of 0.1 ng/ml. The ability of aluminium (III) ion to form complexes with NOR was investigated by titrations in 0.1 M LiCl medium, using a glass electrode, at 298 K, in the concentration range: 2 × 10⁻⁴ ≤ [Al] ≤ 8 × 10⁻⁴; 5 × 10⁻⁴ ≤ [NOR] ≤ 9 × 10⁻⁴ mol/dm³; 2.8 ≤ pH ≤ 8.3. The experimental data were explained by the following complexes and their respective stability constants, log(β ± σ): [Al(HNOR)], (14.60 ± 0.05); [Al(NOR)], (8.83 ± 0.08); [A1(OH)₃(NOR)], (−14.9 ± 0.1), as well as several pure hydrolytic complexes of A1³⁺. The structure of the [Al(HNOR)] complex is discussed, with respect to its fluorescence properties.     

Fluorescence Intensity Enhancement of Green Carbon Dots: Synthesis,Characterization and Cell Imaging

The hydrothermal treatment of green carbon dots (CDs) is an appropriate fluorescent probe synthesis method. CDs are exploited as biological staining agents, especially for cellular detection and imaging. The nitrogen-doped green carbon dots (N-CDs) formation can improve the fluorescence intensity property in a one-step process. Here, we report two N-CDs from lemon and tomato extraction in the presence of hydroxylamine. Lemon and tomato N-CDs showed the blue fluorescence under ultraviolet radiation of about 360 nm. The characterization of CDs and N-CDs showed the presence of N-H and C–N bonds which enhanced the fluorescence efficiency. The mean size of lemon and tomato N-CDs were about 2 and 3 nm with an increased quantum yield (QY) of 5% and 3.38%, respectively. The CDs and N-CDs cytotoxicity assay exhibited high cell viability approximately 85% and 73%, respectively. N-CDs show superior fluorescent intensity in different solvents and significant stability under long-time UV irradiation, different PH and high ionic strength. Our results indicated that the use of N-CDs in cell imaging can lead to fluorescence intensity enhancement as well as proper biocompatibility. Therefore, the safe and high fluorescence intensity of green N-CDs can be utilized for fluorescent probes in biolabeling and bioimaging applications.     

Rhenium(V) complexation with 3-ethyl-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol in 6 M hydrochloric acid

The reversibility of the RSSR/RS redox system, where RS is 3-ethyl-4-methyl-1,2,4-Triazole-5-thiol (3-E-4-MTT) at a platinum electrode was established. The real potentials of the system in the temperature range of 273–338 K were determined. The real potentials of the systems comprising 1,2,4-triazolethiols and their oxidized species depend on the nature, positions, and number of alkyl radicals in the heterocyclic molecule. The stepwise formation constants of rhenium(V) oxochloro-3-ethyl-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazolethiol complexes in 6 M HCl at different temperatures were determined. The thermodynamic functions of complexation in the H₂[ReOCl₅]-3-E-4-MTT-6 M HCl system were estimated.     

The spectrophotometry and solvent-extraction behaviour of iron(III), vanadium(IV and V) and titanium(IV) chelates of 1-(o-carboxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-3-methyltriazene

l-(o-Carboxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-3-methyltriazene is proposed as an excellent reagent for the spectrophotometric determination of iron(III) and titanium(IV), and also for the separation of titanium from a large quantity of iron as well as other cations and anions. Iron(III) forms an anionic violet 1:2 complex at pH 4.0–9.4, and a cationic green 1:1 complex at pH 1.5–2.0, with absorption maxima at 570 nm and 660 nm, respectively. The violet complex is quantitatively extracted in chloroform containing n-octylamine at pH 3.0–9.0. The green and the violet iron(III) complexes obey Beer's law, the respective optimal ranges being 8.9–35.8 and 3.9–11.2 p.p.m. The yellow titanium chelate extracted into chloroform (absorption maximum at 410 nm) between pH 1.0 and 3.5, can be re-extracted into concentrated sulphuric acid a violet colour being produced with absorption maximum at 530 nm. Beer's law is obeyed in the ranges 0.8–5.7 p.p.m. for the titanium complex in chloroform and 3.4–19.2 p.p.m. when extracted in concentrated sulphuric acid. Interferences from diverse ions are not severe. Procedures for the separation and determination of titanium in the presence of a large quantity of iron are given. The isolation of the iron(III) and vanadium(IV and V) complexes, and their properties, are described.

Photometric determination of osmium with thiourea after extraction of the tetroxide

A general method for the determination of 5–1000 γ of osmium involves extraction of osmium tetroxide with chloroform or carbon tetrachloride, followed by shaking the organic solvent with a sulfuric acid solution, of thiourea to form red Os(NH₂CSNH₂)₆⁺³, whose color intensity is measured photometrically. A sharp separation of osmium from ruthenium can be obtained by reducing Os(VIII) and Ru(VIII) with ferrous sulfate and then oxidizing Os(IV) to Os(VIII) with nitric acid; ruthenium remains reduced and is not extracted by chloroform or carbon tetrachloride.     

SUBSTITUENT EFFECTS OF PHOSPHORUS-CONTAINING GROUPS. THE ELECTRONIC EFFECTS IN ANILIDES AND PHENYL ESTERS

Abstract

¹³C NMR shielding parameters have been determined for the N-phosphorylated aniline and O-phosphorylated phenol derivatives, Ph–Y–P(O)Z₂ (Y=NH, O), and for their complexes with titanium tetrachloride. Inductive and resonance substituent constants were calculated using the dsp approach for the neutral and charged substituents. The results are compared with those for the corresponding neutral and charged acetyl derivatives. Shielding effects and substituent constants are discussed in terms of the interactions of the lone pair at Y with the aromatic ring and with the acyl center. It is concluded that no significant p _π-d _π back-donation from Y to the phosphorus atom operates in the systems studied.     

Mercury ions complexation with a series of heterocyclic derivatives of 3-hydroxychromone: spectral effects and prospects for ultrasensitive Hg2+ probing

Complexation of three 3-hydroxychromone derivatives bearing a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic moiety in the position 2 of the chromone bicycle - benzimidazole, quinoline, and 2,5-diphenyloxazole, with mercury(II) ions is reported. Formation of chelate complexes with the metal cations coordinated with the cavity formed by 3-OH and 4-C═O groups was shown, as well as the possibility of side moiety heteroatom participation in binding of metal ions. High sensitivity to mercury of 2,5-diphenyloxazole-substituted 3-hydroxychromone was elucidated, allowing to detect Hg(2+) below the maximum permissible concentration for drinking water. This makes the above-mentioned compound a prospective basis for development of sensors for ultralow mercury concentration detection in water. Unusual fluorescence ignition of 2-(quinolin-2-yl)-3-hydroxychromone at low Hg(2+) concentrations, rarely observed for heavy metals ions complexation with organic fluorescent ligands, was discussed.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and optoelectronic properties of a new unsymmetrical photochromic diarylethene

A new unsymmetrical photochromic diarylethene, 1-(2-methyl-5-phenyl-3-thienyl)-2-[2-methyl-5-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)-3-thienyl]perfluorocyclopentene (1a), was synthesized and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Its optical and electrochemical properties, including photochromic reactivity both in solution and in the solid state (PMMA film and the single-crystalline phase), fluorescence and electrochemical properties were investigated in detail. The compound showed excellent photochromism even in the single-crystalline phase by photo-irradiation. In acetonitrile, the open-ring isomer of diarylethene 1 exhibited relatively strong fluorescence at 470nm when excited at 300nm, and its emission intensity decreased along with the photochromism upon irradiation with 313nm light. Its closed-ring isomer showed almost no fluorescence. The electrochemical properties of diarylethene were investigated by performing cyclic voltammetry experiment and its HOMO and LUMO energy level were calculated.
