Studies on organophosphorus compounds—XLI : Formation of 3-pyrazoline-5-thione disulfides from 3,5-pyrazolidinediones. C-alkylation of 3,5-pyrazolidinediones

4-Substituted-1,2-diphenyl-3,5-pyrazolidinediones (Phenylbutazone analogous) 1a–d react with 2,4-bi-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane 2,4-difulside (Lawesson Reagent (LR) with formation of the corresponding 3,3′-dithiobis (1,2-dihydro-3H-pyrazole-5-thione)'s 2a–d. When the 4-substituent contains a sulfoxide group this is deoxygenated to the sulfide by LR at room tmeperature. 1-Phthalazinone-4-thione, 1,4-phthalazine-dithione and ethyl aminothioxoacetate have also been prepared from the corresponding carbonyl compounds. Alkylation or acylation of 2a–d yielded 3H-pyrazole-3-thione derivatives 8 and 9. Alkylation of 1 with MeI in the presence of Et₃N at room temp. yielded the C-alkylated products 10 exclusively. X-RAy crystallographic investigations of 2b and 9a are presented.     

The synthesis of imidazole-2-thione nucleosides

Ribosylation of the trimethylsilyl derivative ( 1b ) of imidazole-2-thione ( 1a ) using either stannic chloride or silver perchlorate as catalyst resulted in the formation of the acylated derivatives of 1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazole-2-thione ( 3c ) and 1,3-di-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazole-2-thione ( 4c ) with the latter predominating ( 4c:3c , ca. 2:1 ). The diribosylated nucleoside 4c was shown to be the N,N-disubstituted product rather than the N,S-disubstituted product by ¹H nmr and ¹³C nmr spectroscopy. Employment of the iodine-catalyzed fusion procedure reversed the aforementioned product ratios and provided the monoriboside 3c in excellent yield. When the trimethylsilyl derivative ( 5b ) of 2-methylthioimidazole ( 5a ) was reacted with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranosyl bromide ( 2d ) in acetonitrile, the major product was 1,3-di-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-imidazole-2-thione ( 4b ). The formation of 4b in this reaction is thought to arise via the Hilbert-Johnson mechanism.     

Excess molar enthalpies for binary mixtures of trimethyl phosphate with alkanols {CH3(CH2)nOH, n = 0–3} at 298.15 K

The excess molar enthalpies () for the binary mixtures of trimethyl phosphate (TMP) with alkanols {CH₃(CH₂)_nOH, n = 0–3} have been measured with an isothermal calorimeter at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The values are positive for all the mixtures over the whole composition range. The values increase in the order methanol < ethanol < 1-propanol < 1-butanol. The experimental results have been correlated with the Redlich–Kister equation.     

Chemistry and reactivity of dinuclear manganese oxamate complexes: Aerobic catechol oxidation catalyzed by high-valent bis(oxo)-bridged dimanganese(IV) complexes with a homologous series of binucleating 4,5-disubstituted-o-phenylenedioxamate ligands

The high-valent bis(oxo)-bridged dimanganese(IV) complexes with the series of binucleating 4,5-X₂-o-phenylenebis(oxamate) ligands (opbaX₂; X = H, Cl, Me) (1a–c) have been synthesized and characterized structurally, spectroscopically and magnetically. Complexes 1a–c possess unique Mn₂(μ-O)₂ core structures with two o-phenylenediamidate type additional bridges which lead to exceptionally short Mn–Mn distances (2.63–2.65 Å) and fairly bent Mn–O–Mn angles (94.1°–94.6°). The cyclovoltammograms of 1a–c in acetonitrile (25 °C, 0.1 M Bu₄NPF₆) show an irreversible one-electron oxidation peak at moderately high anodic potentials (E_ap = 0.50–0.85 V versus SCE), while no reductions are observed in the potential range studied (down to −2.0 V versus SCE). These dinuclear manganese oxamate complexes are excellent catalysts for the aerobic oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butylcatechol to the corresponding o-quinone in acetonitrile at 25 °C. The order of increasing catecholase activity (k_obs) with the electron donor character of the ligand substituents as 1b (X = Cl) < 1a (X = H) < 1c (X = Me) correlates with Hammett σ⁺ values (ρ = −0.95). A mechanism involving initial activation of the catechol substrate by coordination to the dimetal center and subsequent oxidation to quinone by O₂ is proposed, which is consistent with the observed saturation kinetics.     

A study on copper(II)-Schiff base-azide coordination complexes: Synthesis, X-ray structure and luminescence properties of [Cu(L)(N3)]X (L = Schiff bases; X = ClO4, PF6)

Two Schiff bases N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)benzylidene)propane-1,3-diamine (pbpd) and N,N′-(bis(pyridin-2-yl)formylidene)butane-1,4-diamine (pfbd) have been prepared and used to synthesize copper(II) complexes. Four complexes of the type [Cu(L)(N₃)]X (1–4) [L = pbpd; X = ClO₄ (1); L = pbpd; X = PF₆ (2); L = pfbd; X = ClO₄ (3); L = pfbd; X = PF₆ (4)] have been synthesized and characterized on the basis of microanalytical, spectroscopic, magnetic, electrochemical, luminescence and other physicochemical properties. Two representative complexes of the series, 2 and 3, have been characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction measurements which reveal that in each complex the copper(II) ion assumes a distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment through coordination of the metal centre by two pyridine N atoms and two imine N atoms of the Schiff base with the fifth position occupied by a N atom of a terminal . They display intraligand ¹(π–π^*) fluorescence at room temperature and intraligand ³(π–π^*) phosphorescence in glassy solutions (MeOH at 77 K). A band (492 nm) observed for the complexes in their solid-state emission spectra is an excimeric emission arising due to an aromatic π–π interaction. Electrochemical electron transfer study reveals Cu^II–Cu^I reduction in methanolic solutions.     

Three copper(II) complexes constructed from a new 1,3,5-triazine derivative ligand

Three new complexes {[Cu(dpdapt)(Hhbd)] · 6H₂O}_n (1) (dpdapt = N,N′-di(2-pyridyl)-2,4-diamino-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine, Hhbd = 2-hydroxybutanedioicate dianion), [Cu(dpdapt)(SO₄)] · 2H₂O (2) and [Cu(dpdapt)(oxa)] · H₂O (3) (oxa = oxalate dianion) have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The non-covalent interactions of π–π stacking and hydrogen bonding extend complexes 1–3 into supramolecular architectures, where 1 self-assembles into a 1D polymeric chain by dicarboxylate bridges and exhibits a 3D framework with 1D open channels, while complexes 2 and 3 display 2D wavelike networks. Interestingly, in 1, the host framework encapsulates hexameric water clusters that are connected into 1D arrays by supramolecular association along the 1D open channels. The UV/vis, IR spectra, fluorescence and TG analysis for complexes 1, 2 and 3 are also discussed.     

Gaseous nitryl azide N4O2: A joint theoretical and experimental study

Gaseous nitryl azide N₄O₂ is generated by the heterogeneous reaction of gaseous ClNO₂ with freshly prepared AgN₃ at −50 °C. The geometric and electronic structure of the molecule in the gas phase has been characterized by in situ photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and quantum chemical calculations. The experimental first vertical ionization energy of N₄O₂ is 11.39 eV, corresponding to the ionization of an electron on the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) {4a″(π_{nb(N4–N5–N6)})}⁻¹. An apparent vibrational spacing of 1600 ± 60 cm⁻¹ (ν_asO1N2O3) on the second band at 12.52 eV (π_{nb(O1–N2–O3)}) further confirms the preference of energetically stable chain structure in the gas phase. To complement the experimental results, the potential-energy surface of this structurally novel transient molecule is discussed. Both calculations and spectroscopic results suggest that the molecule adopts a trans-planar chain structure, and a five-membered ring decomposition pathway is more favorable.     

Effects of sintering atmospheres on sintering behavior, electrical conductivity and oxygen permeability of mixed-conducting membranes

Effects of sintering atmospheres on properties of SrCo_0.4Fe_0.5Zr_0.1O_3−δ mixed-conducting membranes were in detail studied in terms of sintering behavior, electrical conductivity and oxygen permeability. The sintering atmospheres were 100% N₂, 79% N₂–21% O₂, 60% N₂–40% O₂, 40% N₂–60% O₂, 20% N₂–80% O₂ and 100% O₂ (in vol.%), and the prepared membranes were correspondingly denoted as S-0, S-21, S-40, S-60, S-80 and S-100, respectively. It was found that the properties of membranes were strongly dependent on the sintering atmosphere. As the oxygen partial pressure in the sintering atmosphere (P_O2) increased, sintering ability, electrical conductivity and oxygen permeability decreased at first, which was in the order of S-0 > S-21 > S-40. However, as P_O2 increased further, sintering ability, electrical conductivity and oxygen permeability increased gradually: S-40 < S-60 < S-80 < S-100. And the S-100 membrane had the best sintering ability, electrical conductivity and oxygen permeability in all membranes.     

Spontaneous Nef reaction of 3-aryl-2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-4-nitroalkanoic acids

Spontaneous Nef reaction of primary and secondary 3-aryl-2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-4-nitroalkanoic acids has been observed for the first time. The reaction provides a general and effective, highly diastereoselective synthesis of 3-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-1-hydroxysuccinimides and 2-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-4-oxoalkanoic acids.

1,3-Oxathiole and Thiirane Derivatives from the Reactions of Azibenzil and α-diazo amides with thiocarbonyl compounds

The reactions of α-diazo ketones 1a,b with 9H-fluorene-9-thione ( 2f ) in THF at room temperature yielded the symmetrical 1,3-dithiolanes 7a,b , whereas 1b and 2,2,4,4-tetramethylcyclobutane-1,3-dithione ( 2d ) in THF at 60° led to a mixture of two stereoisomeric 1,3-oxathiole derivatives cis- and trans- 9a (Scheme 2). With 2-diazo-1,2-diphenylethanone ( 1c ), thio ketones 2a–d as well as 1,3-thiazole-5(4H)-thione 2g reacted to give 1,3-oxathiole derivatives exclusively (Schemes 3 and 4). As the reactions with 1c were more sluggish than those with 1a,b , they were catalyzed either by the addition of LiClO₄ or by Rh₂(OAc)₄. In the case of 2d in THF/LiClO₄ at room temperature, a mixture of the monoadduct 4d and the stereoisomeric bis-adducts cis- and trans- 9b was formed. Monoadduct 4d could be transformed to cis- and trans- 9b by treatment with 1c in the presence of Rh₂(OAc)₄ (Scheme 4). Xanthione ( 2e ) and 1c in THF at room temperature reacted only when catalyzed with Rh₂(OAc)₄, and, in contrast to the previous reactions, the benzoyl-substituted thiirane derivative 5a was the sole product (Scheme 4). Both types of reaction were observed with α-diazo amides 1d,e (Schemes 5–7). It is worth mentioning that formation of 1,3-oxathiole or thiirane is not only dependent on the type of the carbonyl compound 2 but also on the α-diazo amide. In the case of 1d and thioxocyclobutanone 2c in THF at room temperature, the primary cycloadduct 12 was the main product. Heating the mixture to 60°, 1,3-oxathiole 10d as well as the spirocyclic thiirane-carboxamide 11b were formed. Thiirane-carboxamides 11d–g were desulfurized with (Me₂N)₃P in THF at 60°, yielding the corresponding acrylamide derivatives (Scheme 7). All reactions are rationalized by a mechanism via initial formation of acyl-substituted thiocarbonyl ylides which undergo either a 1,5-dipolar electrocyclization to give 1,3-oxathiole derivatives or a 1,3-dipolar electrocyclization to yield thiiranes. Only in the case of the most reactive 9H-fluorene-9-thione ( 2f ) is the thiocarbonyl ylide trapped by a second molecule of 2f to give 1,3-dithiolane derivatives by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition.     

Asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of ferrocenyl ketones: a new simple route to chiral ferrocenyl alcohols

The asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of ferrocenyl ketones, such as FcC(O)CH₂Y [Fc = ferrocenyl, Y = H (1a), CH₃ (1b), Cl (1c) or N₃ (1d)] has been carried out using the Noyori/Ikariya catalysts [(−)-(1R,2S)-ephedrine] or N-tosyl-(1R,2R)-diphenylethylenediamine [(R,R)-TsDPEN] as chiral ligands combined with [RuCl₂(η⁶-benzene)]₂ and 2-PrOH or HCO₂H–Et₃N as the hydrogen sources, respectively. The best results were achieved with the [(R,R)-TsDPEN–Ru^IIHCO₂H–Et₃N] catalytic system, which produced the ferrocenylalcohols (R)-2a, (R)-2c, and (R)-2d in good yields and excellent enantiomeric excesses (>98% ee).

Syntheses, crystal structures and electronic properties of a series of copper(II) complexes with 3,5-halogen-substituted Schiff base ligands and their solutions

We have systematically investigated the structural features, electronic properties, thermally-induced structural phase transitions and absorption spectra depending on the solvent for ten Cu(II) complexes with 3,5-halogen-substituted Schiff base ligands. Structural characterization of two new complexes, bis(N-R-1-phenylethyl- and N-R,S-2-butyl-5-bromosalicydenaminato-κ²N,O)copper(II), reveals that they afford a compressed tetrahedral trans-[CuN₂O₂] coordination geometry with trans-N–Cu–N = 159.4(2)° and trans-O–Cu–O = 151.7(3)° for the 1-phenylethyl complex and trans-N–Cu–N = 157.9(3)° and trans-O–Cu–O = 151.0(3)° for the 2-butyl one. All the complexes exhibit a structural phase transition by heating in the solid state regardless of their structures at room temperature. The absorption spectra of a series of ten complexes exhibit a slight shift of the d–d band at 16 000–20 000 cm⁻¹ and remarkable shift of the π–π* band at 24 000–28 000 cm⁻¹, which suggests that the dipole moment of the solvents presumably affects the conformation of the π-conjugated moieties of the ligands rather than the coordination environment. We have also attempted ‘photochromic solute-induced solvatochromism’ by a system of bis(N-R-1-phenylethyl-3,5-dichlorosalicydenaminato-κ²N,O)copper(II) and photochromic 4-hydroxyazobenzene in chloroform solution. We successfully observed a change of the d–d and π–π* bands of the complex in the absorption spectra caused by cis–trans photoisomerization of 4-hydroxyazobenzene.     

Hydrogenmaleato bridged supramolecular double chains via π–π stacking interactions: syntheses, crystal structures and magnetic properties of ∞[Cu(phen)X(HL)2/2] with X=Cl (1), NO3 (2) and H2L=maleic acid

Two novel hydrogen maleato (HL) bridged Cu(II) complexes _∞¹[Cu(phen)Cl(HL)_2/2] 1 and _∞¹[Cu(phen)(NO₃)(HL)_2/2] 2 were obtained from reactions of 1,10-phenanthroline, maleic acid with CuCl₂·2H₂O and Cu(NO₃)₂·3H₂O, respectively, in CH₃OH/H₂O (1:1 v/v) at pH=2.0 and the crystal structures were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Both complexes crystallize isostructurally in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with cell dimensions: 1 a=8.639(2) Å, b=15.614(3) Å, c=11.326(2) Å, β=94.67(3)°, Z=4, D_calc=1.720 g/cm³ and 2 a=8.544(1) Å, b=15.517(2) Å, c=12.160(1) Å, β=90.84(8)°, Z=4, D_calc=1.734 g/cm³. In both complexes, the square pyramidally coordinated Cu atoms are bridged by hydrogen maleato ligands into 1D chains with the coordinating phen ligands parallel on one side. Interdigitation of the chelating phen ligands of two neighbouring chains via π–π stacking interactions forms supramolecular double chains, which are then arranged in the crystal structures according to pseudo 1D close packing patterns. Both complexes exhibit similar paramagnetic behavior obeying Curie–Weiss laws χ_m(T−θ)=0.414 cm³ mol⁻¹ K with the Weiss constants θ=−1.45, −1.0 K for 1 and 2, respectively.     

Phase equilibria and crystal structure of the solid solution LaFe1−xNixO3−δ (0 ≤ x ≤ 1)

Phase equilibria in the LaFeO₃–“LaNiO₃” were studied at 1100 °C in air. The samples were synthesized by standard ceramic and/or solution route via nitrate or citrate precursors. According to the results of XRD it was found that the homogeneity ranges of LaFe_1−xNi_xO_3−δ solid solution lay within 0.0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4 (sp.gr. Pbnm) and 0.6 ≤ x ≤ 0.8 (sp.gr. ). The structural parameters (bond lengths, atom coordinates) for the single-phase samples were refined using Rietveld analysis. The unit cell parameters versus LaFe_1−xNi_xO_3−δ composition are presented.     

Synthesis, structural investigation and thermal stability of aqua magnesium(II) phthalocyanine bis(diethylamine) solvate

Aqua magnesium phthalocyanine bis(diethylamine) complex was obtained in the crystalline form and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Mg atom is 4 + 1 coordinated by four N isoindole atoms and one O atom. The MgPc moiety is non-planar, the Mg(II) is deviated by 0.492(2) Å from the N₄-isoindole plane towards the oxygen atom of water molecule. The arrangement of MgPc(H₂O) and diethylamine molecules is determined by O–HN hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions. The complex is stable up to 140 °C. At this temperature the complex loses diethylamine molecules and next at 200 °C loses the water molecule and finally converts into β-MgPc.     

Supramolecular architecture of cadmium(II)–terephthalate complexes having a tridentate or tetradentate Schiff base as blocking coligand

Two new cadmium(II)–terephthalate complexes, _∞¹{[Cd₂(μ-terephthalate)₂(L¹)₂]·9H₂O} (1) and [{Cd(H₂O)(L²)}₂(μ-terephthalate)](terephthalate) · 10H₂O (2), where L¹ = (E)-N¹,N¹-diethyl-N²-(1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine; L² = N,N′-bis-(1-pyridin-2-yl-ethylidene)-ethane-1,2-diamine; have been synthesized by a conventional solution method. Characterization by single crystal X-ray crystallography shows that compound 1 is composed of 1-D polymeric zig-zag chains with distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal cadmium centers. Compound 2 consists of centrosymmetric dinuclear complexes with a distorted pentagonal-bipyramidal cadmium center in which one terephthalate ligand bridges the metal centres and another terephthalate anion with water of crystallization forms a H-bonding network.
