Photochemistry of peroxoborates: borate inhibition of the photodecomposition of hydrogen peroxide

The UV absorbance and photochemical decomposition kinetics of hydrogen peroxide in borate/boric acid buffers were investigated as a function of pH, total peroxide concentration, and total boron concentration. At higher pH borate/boric acid inhibits the photodecomposition of hydrogen peroxide (molar absorptivity and quantum yield of H(2)O(2) and HO(2) (-), (19.0+/-0.3) M(-1) cm(-1) and 1, and (237+/-7) M(-1) cm(-1) and 0.8+/-0.1, respectively). The results are consistent with the equilibrium formation of the anions monoperoxoborate, K(BOOH)=[H(+)][HOOB(OH)(3) (-)]/([B(OH)(3)][H(2)O(2)]), 2.0 x 10(-8), R. Pizer, C. Tihal, Inorg. Chem. 1987, 26, 3639-3642, and monoperoxodiborate, K(BOOB)=[BOOB(2-)]/([B(OH)(4) (-)][HOOB(OH)(3) (-)]), 1.0+/-0.3 or 4.3+/-0.9, depending upon the conditions, with molar absorptivity, (19+/-1) M(-1) cm(-1) and (86+/-15) M(-1) cm(-1), respectively, and respective quantum yields, 1.1+/-0.1 and 0.04+/-0.04. The low quantum yield of monoperoxodiborate is discussed in terms of the slower diffusion apart of incipient (.)OB(OH)(3) (-) radicals than may be possible for (.)OH radicals, or a possible oxygen-bridged cyclic structure of the monoperoxodiborate.

四氟乙烯齐聚体的反应 III: 四氟乙烯四聚体与脂族胺以及烷氧亲核试剂的反应

3, 4-Bis (trifluoromethyl)-perfluorohexene-(3) (1) reacted with diethylamine to give the 1-N, N-diethylamino-2-pentafluoroethyl -3-trifluoromethyl-perfluoropentene-(1)(2), which was easily hydrolyzed to the corresponding N, N-diethyl-2-penta-fluoroethyl- 3-trifluoromethyl-perfluoropenteno-(2)-amide (3). When compound 1 was allowed to react with n-butyl amine at 40-50`C, the 2,3,4-tris(trifluoromethyl)-4-pentafluoroethyl-1-n-butyl-aza- cyclobutene-(2) (5) was obtained as the main product and at-30-40`C, 3,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4-n-butylamino-perfluorohexene-(2) (4) as the main product. The isomers 3, 4-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4-allyloxy-perfluoro-hexen-(2) (6) and 2-pentafluoroethyl-3-trifluoromethyl-3-allyloxy-perfluoropentene-(1)(7) were formed when 1 was reacted with sodium allyl alcoholate.

NMR study of hydroxy protons of di- and trimannosides, substructures of Man-9

The chemical shifts, temperature coefficients and inter-residual rotating-frame Overhauser effect (ROE)s for the hydroxy protons of some alpha-(1,2)-, alpha-(1,3)- and alpha-(1,6)-linked di- and trimannosides have been measured for samples in 85% H2O/15% acetone-d6 solution. These mannosides, Manalpha(1-->2)ManalphaOMe (1) Manalpha(1-->3)ManalphaOMe (2), Manalpha(1-->6)ManalphaOMe (3), Manalpha(1-->2)Manalpha(1-->2)ManalphaOMe (4), Manalpha(1-->2)Manalpha(1-->3)ManalphaOMe (5), Manalpha(1-->2)Manalpha(1-->6)ManalphaOMe (6) and Manalpha(1-->3)[Manalpha1-->6]ManalphaOMe (7), are substructures of the N-glycan Man-9.The NMR data show that the hydration of each individual hydroxyl group in the di- and trisaccharides is very similar to the hydration of the corresponding hydroxyl in the monomeric methyl alpha-D-mannoside. No hydrogen-bond interactions were found to stabilize the conformations of the alpha-(1,2)- and alpha-(1,6)-linkages and the chemical shifts for the hydroxy proton resonances of the alpha-(1,6)-linkage indicated high-conformational flexibility. For the alpha-(1,3)-linkage, however, the downfield shift for the signal of O(2)H of the 3-substituted residue together with the ROE between this proton and H5' on the next residue suggest some weak inter-residue interactions.     

Synthesis of phthalide derivatives using nickel-catalyzed cyclization of o-haloesters with aldehydes

The reaction of o-bromobenzoate (1 b) with benzaldehyde (2 a) in the presence of [NiBr(2)(dppe)] (dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) and zinc powder in THF (24 hours, reflux temperature), afforded 3-phenyl-3H-isobenzofuran-1-one (3 a) in an 86 % yield. Similarly, o-iodobenzoate reacts with 2 a to give 3 a, but in a lower yield (50 %). A series of substituted aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes (2 b, 4-MeC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 c, 4-MeOC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 d, 3-MeOC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 e, 2-MeOC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 f, 4-CNC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 g, 4-(Me)(3)CC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 h, 4-C(6)H(5)C(6)H(4)CHO; 2 i, 4-ClC(6)H(4)CHO; 2 j, 4-CF(3)C(6)H(4)CHO; 2 k, CH(3)(CH(2))(5)CHO; 2 l, CH(3)(CH(2))(2)CHO) also underwent cyclization with o-bromobenzoate (1 b) producing the corresponding phthalide derivatives in moderate to excellent yields and with high chemoselectivity. Like 1 b, methyl 2-bromo-4,5-dimethoxybenzoate (1 c) reacts with tolualdehyde (2 b) to give the corresponding substituted phthalide 3 m in a 71 % yield. The methodology can be further applied to the synthesis of six-membered lactones. The reaction of methyl 2-(2-bromophenyl)acetate (1 d) with benzaldehyde under similar reaction conditions afforded six-membered lactone 3 o in a 68 % yield. A possible catalytic mechanism for this cyclization is also proposed.

Enthalpies of formation of monoderivatives of hydrocarbons: Interaction of polar groups with an alkyl group

Energies of hydrocarbon monoderivatives CH(3)X, C(2)H(5)X, n-C(4)H(9)X, and n-C(5)H(11)X with 16 different substituents X were calculated at the levels B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) and B3LYP/AUG-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p). The results were used to test the validity of the additive rule that has served commonly for estimating the enthalpies of formation Delta(f)H(T). The exact additivity corresponds to zero reaction energy DeltaE of the isodesmic reaction, in which the substituent X is transferred from one alkyl group R to another. Additivity is approximately fulfilled for butyl and pentyl derivatives with the differences less than 0.3 kJ mol(-1) (except charged groups X). Methyl derivatives deviated from the additive rule up to 22 kJ mol(-1) for dipolar groups X and 45 kJ mol(-1) for charged group, in agreement with the available experiments and with the anticipation of all suggested empirical schemes. In addition, smaller deviations of ethyl derivatives (3 or 20 kJ mol(-1), respectively) were observed here for the first time. There is no correlation between the deviations of methyl and ethyl derivatives; they are also not related to steric effects, and only partly to polarization. Deviations of methyl derivatives are proportional to the electronegativity of the first atom of the substituent; even when the definition of electronegativity is somewhat questionable, one can say in any case that it is controlled by the first atom.

Quantitative comparison of kinetic stabilities of metallomacrocycle-based rotaxanes

Four mononuclear metallomacrocycles with identical cavities but different transition metals (Os(VI), Pd(II), Pt(II), and Re(I)) were prepared. With these metallomacrocycles, the corresponding rotaxanes 2-Os, 2-Pd, 2-Pt, and 2-Re were self-assembled by hydrogen-bonding interactions. The kinetic stabilities of the rotaxanes were determined quantitatively and compared with each other by (1)H NMR spectroscopic techniques, including two-dimensional exchange spectroscopy (2D-EXSY) experiments. The activation free energies (DeltaG( not equal )) for the exchange between the rotaxanes 2-Os, 2-Pd and 2-Pt and their free components were determined to be 15.5, 16.0, and 16.4 kcal mol(-1), respectively. These magnitudes imply that the rotaxanes 2-Os, 2-Pd and 2-Pt are kinetically labile at room temperature and exist only as equilibrium mixtures with free components in solution. In contrast, the rotaxane 2-Re is kinetically stable enough to be isolated in pure form by silica gel chromatography under ordinary laboratory conditions. However, at higher temperatures (>60 degrees C) 2-Re was slowly disassembled into its components until the equilibrium was established. The rate constants were measured at three different temperatures, and the Eyring plot yielded the activation enthalpy DeltaH(not equal)=35 kcal mol(-1) and the activation entropy DeltaS(not equal)=27 eu for the disassembly of the rotaxane 2-Re in Cl(2)CDCDCl(2). These thermodynamic parameters gave the activation free energy DeltaG(not equal)(off)=27.1 kcal mol(-1) at 25 degrees C. Consequently, 2-Re is one example of a novel metallomacrocycle-based rotaxane that contains a coordination bond with enough strength to allow both for isolation in pure form around room temperature and for self-assembly at higher temperatures.     

Comparison of structure and reactivity of phosphine-amido and hemilabile phosphine-amine chelates of rhodium

A series of mono- and binuclear rhodium(I) complexes bearing ortho-phosphinoanilido and ortho-phosphinoaniline ligands has been synthesized. Reactions of the protic monophosphinoanilines, Ph(2)PAr or PhPAr(2) (Ar = o-C(6)H(4)NHMe), with 0.5 equiv of [Rh(μ-OMe)(COD)](2) result in the formation of the neutral amido complexes, [Rh(COD)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))] or [Rh(COD)(P,N-PhP(Ar(-))Ar)] (Ar(-) = o-C(6)H(4)NMe(-)), respectively, through stoichiometrically controlled deprotonation of an amine by the internal methoxide ion. Similarly, the binuclear complex, [Rh(2)(COD)(2)(μ-P,N,P',N'-mapm(2-))] (mapm(2-) = Ar(Ar(-))PCH(2)P(Ar(-))Ar), can be prepared by reaction of the protic diphosphinoaniline, mapm (Ar(2)PCH(2)PAr(2)), with 1 equiv of [Rh(μ-OMe)(COD)](2). An analogous series of hemilabile phosphine-amine compounds can be generated by reactions of monophosphinoanilines, Ph(2)PAr' or PhPAr'(2) (Ar' = o-C(6)H(4)NMe(2)), with 1 equiv of [Rh(NBD)(2)][BF(4)] to generate [Rh(NBD)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr')][BF(4)] or [Rh(NBD)(P,N-PhPAr'(2))][BF(4)], respectively, or by reactions of diphosphinoanilines, mapm or dmapm (Ar'(2)PCH(2)PAr'(2)), with 2 equiv of the rhodium precursor to generate [Rh(2)(NBD)(2)(μ-P,N,P',N'-mapm)][BF(4)](2) or [Rh(2)(NBD)(2)(μ-P,N,P',N'-dmapm)][BF(4)](2), respectively. Displacement of the diolefin from [Rh(COD)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))] by 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe) yields [Rh(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))] which, while unreactive to H(2), reacts readily and irreversibly with oxygen to form the peroxo complex, [RhO(2)(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))], and with iodomethane to yield [RhI(CH(3))(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))]. Hemilabile phosphine-amine compounds can also be prepared by reactions of [Rh(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr(-))] with Me(3)OBF(4) or HBF(4)·Et(2)O, resulting in (thermodynamic) additions at nitrogen to form [Rh(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr')][BF(4)] or [Rh(P,P'-dppe)(P,N-Ph(2)PAr)][BF(4)], respectively. The nonlabile phosphine-amido and hemilabile phosphine-amine complexes were tested as catalysts for the silylation of styrene. The amido species do not require the use of solvents in reaction media, can be easily removed from product mixtures by protonation, and appear to be more active than their hemilabile, cationic congeners. Reactions catalyzed by either amido or amine complexes favor dehydrogenative silylation in the presence of excess olefin, showing modest selectivities for a single vinylsilane product. The binuclear complexes, which were prepared in an effort to explore possible catalytic enhancements of reactivity due to metal-metal cooperativity, are in fact somewhat less active than mononuclear species, discounting this possibility.     

Control of helix sense by composition of chiral-achiral copolymers of N-propargylbenzamides

N-Propargylbenzamides 1-7 were polymerized with (nbd)Rh(+)[eta(6)-C(6)H(5)B(-)(C(6)H(5))(3)] to afford polymers with moderate molecular weights (M(n) = 26,000-51,000) in good yields. The (1)H NMR spectra demonstrated that the polymers have fairly stereoregular structures (81-88 % cis). The optically active polymers, poly(1) and poly(2), were proven by their intense CD signals and large optical rotations to adopt a stable helical conformation with an excess of one-handed screw sense when heated in CHCl(3) or toluene. The sign of Cotton effect could be controlled by varying the content in the copolymers of either chiral bulky 1 and achiral nonbulky 3, or chiral nonbulky 2 and achiral bulky 7. The smaller the pendant group in the copolymerization of achiral monomers with 1, the more easily did the preferential helical sense change with the copolymer composition. However, the copolymers of chiral nonbulky 2 and achiral nonbulky 3 did not change the helical sense, irrespective of the composition. The free energy differences between the plus and minus helical states, as well as the excess free energy of the helix reversal, of those chiral-achiral random copolymers were estimated by applying a modified Ising model.     

Fractional sublimation of some metal chelates of thenoyltrifluoroacetone

Studies on the fractional sublimation of various metal β-diketone chelates have been extended to include the chelates of thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTA). Many of the common metal chelates were found to be stable, to sublime readily, and to form well-defined zones in the vacuum fractional sublimator. Of the 17 chelates reported only those of manganese (II) and iron(II) were not volatile. The chelates of UO₂(II), Zr(IV), Pb(II), and Cr(III) partially decomposed during sublimation and their recovery was incomplete. The recovery of the sublimed chelates of Ni(II), Mg(II), Al(III), Pd(II), Co(II), Cu(II). Fe(III), Tl(III), Zn(II) and Be(II) ranged from 87 to 100%, with most recoveries being quantitative. The sublimation recrystallization zone temperatures of the various chelates are compared to those of the metal acetylacetonates and the benzoyltrifluoroacetonates; in general, the metal chelates of TTA sublime more readily than those of benzoyltrifluoroacetone but are potentially less useful for fractional sublimation separations than the corresponding metal acetylacetonates. Even so, a quantitative separation of iron(III) from Ni(II), Al(III), Mn(II), and Fe(II) is proposed that depends upon the fractional sublimation of the TTA chelates.

Study of hydration of two cements of different strengths

Main hydration products of two cement pastes, i.e. CSH-gel, portlandite (P) (and specific surface S) were studied by static heating, and by SEM, TEM and XRD, as a function of cement strength (C-33 and C-43) hydration time (th) and subsequent hydration in water vapour.Total change in mass on hydration and air drying, M_o, increased with strength of cement paste and with hydration time. Content of water escaping at 110 to 220°C, defined as water bound with low energy, mainly interlayer and hydrate water, was independent on cement strength but its content increased with (th). Content of chemically bound (zeolitic) water in CSH-gel, escaping at 220-400°C, was slightly dependent on strength and increased with (th). It was possibly derived from the dehydroxylation of CSH-gel and AFm phase. Portlandite water, escaping at 400-500°C, was independent on cement strength and was higher on longer hydration. Large P crystals were formed in the weaker cement paste C-33. Smaller crystals were formed in C-43 but they increased with (th). Carbonate formated on contact with air (calcite, vaterite and aragonite), decomposed in cement at 600-700^oC. It was high in pastes C-33(1 month) and C-43(1 month), i.e. 5.7 and 3.3%, respectively; it was less than 1% after 6 hydration months (low sensitivity to carbonation) in agreement with the XRD study showing carbonates in the air dry paste (1month), and its absence on prolonged hydration (6 months) and on acetone treatment. Water vapour treatment of (6 months) pastes or wetting-drying increased this sensitivity.Nanosized P-crystals, detected by TEM, could contribute to the cement strength; carbonate was observed on the rims of gel clusters.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthesis of trimethylammoniumphenylthio-substituted phthalocyanines with different pattern of substitution

The base-catalyzed cyclotetramerization of 3-, 4- and 4,5-dimethylaminophenylthio phthalonitriles with zinc(II)acetate afforded 1(4),8(11),15(18),22(25)- and 2(3),9(10),16(17),23(24)-tetrasubstituted and 2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octasubstituted Zn(II)phthalocyanines, respectively. The statistical mixed condensation of the same phthalonitriles with 1,2-dicyanobenzene gave the corresponding mono- and disubstituted derivatives. Methylation of such products afforded a series of cationic Zn(II)phthalocyanines with different pattern of substitution, with potential use as photodynamic agents in microbial infections.
