Asymmetric synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 3-methylidenedihydroquinolin-2(1H)-ones

A series of enantiomerically pure or highly enriched (R)- or (S)-3-methylidenetetrahydroquinolin-2-ones was readily prepared by highly diastereoselective Michael additions of various Grignard reagents to quinolin-2(1H)-ones, containing an (R,R)- or (S,S)-di(1-phenylethylamino)phosphoryl group as chiral auxiliary, followed by Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination of formaldehyde. An efficient synthesis of the starting (R,R)- and (S,S)-3-({di[(1-phenylethyl)amino]}phosphoryl)-1-alkyl-quinolin-2(1H)-ones is also described. The relative and absolute configurations of the intermediate adducts and final methylidenequinolinones were established by NMR and X-ray analysis.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of a chiral lactam and three amino alcohols as potential protein tyrosine phosphates 1B inhibitors

Chiral lactam 2 and three chiral β-amino alcohols 3–5 have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques. Regioselective ring opening reaction of chiral styrene oxide by an amine nucleophile was confirmed by X-ray diffraction data. Ligand 2–4 crystallizes in the tetragonal, orthorhombic and tetragonal crystal lattice system respectively. Ligands 2–6 have been used as potential inhibitors for protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B enzyme (PTP1B). The potential inhibitor effect of these molecules to the target protein was investigated by Dock and molecular dynamics calculations. Dock score analysis and Lipinski parameters suggested that ligands 1, 2, 4–6 are potential inhibitors towards PTP1B, thus indicating that the residues Arg24, Arg254 and Met258, Asp29 in the second active site of PTP1B are essential for the high selectivity of inhibitors. The results indicate that the polar hydrogen bonding interacts with Asp29, Gln102, and the amino acid residues of PTP1B are responsible for governing inhibitory potency of ligands 1–6.     

Electron spin resonance studies of spin-labelled synthetic polymers part 12. The polymerisation of methyl methacrylate initiated by butyl lithium

It is shown that poly(methyl methacrylate), polymerised at 0° or above by butyl lithium in THF or toluene, contains a number of n-butyl isopropenyl ketone units. The α-methylenic protons on the n-butyl group of these units can be abstracted by the propagating or other reactive carbanion to yield the carbanionic species

This carbanion reacts with the “trap” 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane to form, after hydrolysis and oxidation, the nitroxide label

the e.s.r. spectrum of which comprises a triplet of doublets.

Constitution moleculaire d'α,ω-difluoropolydimethylsiloxanes equilibres obtenus par une reaction de redistribution

α,ω-Difluoropolydimethylsiloxanes F[(CH₃)₂SiO]_n(CH₃)₂SiF have been prepared by reaction of (CH₃)₂SiF₂ with cyclic dimethylsiloxanes [(CH₃)₂SiO]_n (n = 3 or 4). An equilibrium is reached in the redistribution of fluorine vs. oxygen atoms after ca. 24 h at 200°C or 15 days at 150°C when catalysed by AlCl₃. 16 equilibrated samples of varied (R = F/Si) overall compositions have been analysed by ¹H and ¹⁹F NMR and by VPC. The presence of rings has been established for the lower values of R. The molecular constitution of the equilibrated samples is described by a set of constants. The abundance of the end units

is slightly larger than expected from random distribution. The good resolution of the spectra permits the distinguishing of the 9th order of environment of the end units and the 5th order for the middle units and the verification that there is no preferential association among the building units, and thus the proportion of chains of various lengths obeys Flory's random distribution mode. The equilibrium molecular constitution of these α,ω-difluorosiloxanes is close to that of their dichloro analogs; the substitution of chlorine by fluorine atoms at the end of the chains thus appears to cause little perturbation. On the other hand, the kinetic evolution of the reaction appears to be different, since the first species which forms is always the pyro molecule

instead of long chains and large rings as in the case of the chloro analogs.

Application of R.O.P. in polymerization of furanic oligoesters with cyclic esters: Synthesis,characterization and degradation

Furano-Aliphatic copolyesters, such as poly(propylene furanic)-co-(polycaprolactone) (PPF-co-PCL), Poly(propylene furanic)-co-(polylactide) (PPF-co-PLA) and Poly(propylene furanic)-co-(polyglycolide) (PPF-co-PGA) were prepared by ring opening polymerization (R.O.P.) using monomers derived from renewable resources. These copolyesters were characterized by ¹H-NMR, DSC and TGA. The degree of randomness determined by ¹H-NMR is close to 1, reflecting a random distribution, sometimes less than one. This indicates that these polyesters have a character to block. The hydrolytic degradation of polymers was performed at pH 4.35 at 37°C over a period of four weeks. The oxidative degradation proved a mass loss of about 50%.     

Magnetic structure of rare-earth dodecaborides

We have investigated the magnetic structure of HoB₁₂, ErB₁₂ and TmB₁₂ by neutron diffraction on isotopically enriched single-crystalline samples. Results in zero field as well as in magnetic field up to 5 T reveal modulated incommensurate magnetic structures in these compounds. The basic reflections can be indexed with q=(1/2±δ, 1/2±δ, 1/2±δ), where δ=0.035 both for HoB₁₂ and TmB₁₂ and with q=(3/2±δ, 1/2±δ, 1/2±δ), where δ=0.035, for ErB₁₂. In an applied magnetic field, new phases are observed. The complex magnetic structure of these materials seems to result from the interplay between the RKKY and dipole-dipole interaction. The role of frustration due to the fcc symmetry of dodecaborides and the crystalline electric field effect is also considered.     

Über die Phasenbreite von V2O5 im Temperaturbereich von 450°C bis 620°C

About the Homogeneity Range of V₂O₅ in the Temperature Range of 450°C to 620°C The influence of the deposition temperature T₁ on the homogeneity range of V₂O₅-crystalls was investigated by using a solid electrolyte cell. The deviation x in V₂O_5–x from the stoichiometric composition was obtained with: x = 0.0066 at T₁ = 450°C up to x = 0.0326 at T₁ = 620°C.     

Structural characterisation of a water-soluble polysaccharide from tissue-cultured Dendrobium huoshanense C.Z. Tang et S.J. Cheng

A water-soluble polysaccharide TC-DHPA4 with a molecular weight of 8.0 × 10⁵ Da was isolated from tissue-cultured Dendrobium huoshanense by anion exchange and gel permeation chromatography. Monosaccharide analysis revealed that the homogeneous polysaccharide was made up of rhamnose, arabinose, mannose, glucose, galactose and glucuronic acid with a molar ratio of 1.28:1:1.67:4.71:10.43:1.42. The sugar residue sequence analysis based on the GC-MS files and NMR spectra indicated that the backbone of TC-DHPA4 consisted of the repeated units:→6)-β-Galp-(1→6)-β-Galp-(1→4)-β-GlcpA-(1→6)-β-Glcp-(1→6)-β-Glcp-(→. The sugar residue sequences β-Glcp-(1→)-α-Rhap-(1→3)-β-Galp-(1→, β-Glcp-(1→4)-α-Rhap-(1→3)-β-Galp-(1→, β-Galp-(1→6)-β-Manp-(1→3)-β-Galp-(1→, and α-l-Araf-(1→2)-β-Manp-(1→3)-β-Galp-(1→ were identified as the branches attached to the C-3 position of (1→6)-linked galactose in the backbone.     

Impact of variation of the acyl group on the efficiency and selectivity of the lipase-mediated resolution of 2-phenylalkanols

By tuning the steric properties of the acyl group to control the efficiency and selectivity of the resolution, 2-phenyl-1-propanol 1a was prepared by lipase-catalysed hydrolysis using a short-chain acyl group, with E-values of up to 66 (ee up to 95%). 2-Phenylbutan-1-ol 1b was similarly resolved (up to 86% ee) using the optimised conditions, while the ester of the more sterically demanding 3-methyl-2-phenylbutan-1-ol 1c proved resistant to enzymatic hydrolysis under these conditions.     

Synthesis of Alkylcyclophosphanes from Red Phosphorus – molecular structure of i-Pr4P4 by gas electron diffraction

A polyphosphide of the type (NaP)_X 1 was obtained from red phosphorus and sodium in presence of small amounts of naphthalene in 1,2-dimethoxyethane as solvent. 1 reacts with alkyl halides in dependence on the kind of alkyl group with formation of different alkylcyclophosphanes. As definite compounds Me₅P₅ 2 , Et₅P₅ 3 (with not definite constitution), i-Pr₄P₄ 4 and t-Bu₄P₄ 5 could be isolated. 1 was identified by X-ray diffraction, 2 – 5 by means of their ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P n.m.r. and mass spectra. The molecular structure of 4 was identified by electron diffraction.     

Recherche d'une description structurale des de´compositions endothermique Solide 1 → Solide 2 + gaz. I. Structure cristalline de l'oxalate de baryum 2BaC2O4, H2O

2BaC₂O₄ · H₂O (M = 468.73) is triclinic, space group P1, with a = 9.312(1) A?, b = 9.649(1) A?, c = 6.188(1) A?, α = 90.13(2)°, β = 95.36(2)°, γ = 125.18(2)°, Z = 2, D_m = 3.48; C_x = 3.51g · cm^?3. The position of the Ba atom was determined from a Patterson function. A subsequent Fourier synthesis clearly revealed the position of all C and O atoms in the structure. Refinement of the MoKα diffractometer data by a least-squares method using full matrix gave R = 0.065. The structure presents two remarkable characteristics: (a) We distinguish two types of (C₂O₄)^2? ions. The first are planar, the second are notably separated from the plane configuration (deviation = 30°); this deformation is of a steric origin. (b) The water molecules are located in channels parallel to [001]. They enter in the coordination of one of the Ba²⁺ ions but do not exchange any strong hydrogen bond with oxygen atoms which surround them.     

A Novel Dimeric Eremophilane from Ligularia virgaurea spp. oligocephala

Spectra and structure of phosphorus-boron compounds : IV. Vibrational spectra of solid trifluorophosphineborane

The Raman spectra of F₃PBH₃ and F₃PBD₃ have been recorded (2500-10 cm⁻¹) of the liquids (−80°C) and solids (−196°C) as well as the infrared spectra (4000-33 cm⁻¹) of the solids. In the spectrum of the solid state many of the ¹⁰B and ¹¹B fundamentals were clearly defined and it was also possible to assign the BH₃ torsional frequency from the infrared and Raman spectra of the solids. A complete vibrational assignment is proposed and a normal coordinate calculation carried out. The force constant of 2.46 mdyn Å⁻¹ for the P-B stretching mode is consistent with the short P-B bond; this constant is compared to the similar quantity for several other phosphorus-boron compounds. All of the E modes for the “free” molecule are shown to be split by the site symmetry which indicates that the molecules occupy C_s or C₁ sites. The large number of observed lattice modes is consistent with two or more molecules per primitive cell. The torsional frequency was observed at 224 cm⁻¹ and 167 cm⁻¹ in hydrogen and deuterium compounds in the solid, respectively. These frequencies gave a periodic barrier of 4.15 kcal mole⁻¹ for F₃PBH₃ and 4.31 kcal mole⁻¹ for F₃PBD₃. CNDO/2 calculations have been carried out for F₃PBH₃ and the isoelectronic F₃SiCH₃ molecule in both the staggered and eclipsed forms and the dipole and barrier origins are discussed.     

Separation system for fractionation of polyacrylamide by gel permeation chromatography

Samples of polyacrylamide were prepared by radical polymerisation of monomer in aqueous solution. Fractions of polyacrylamide were produced by a fractional precipitation technique with methanol as non-solvent. Molecular weights of the polyacrylamides were determined by solution viscometry. Analytical gel permeation chromatography (GPC) of the polyacrylamide samples and fractions was performed with porous silicas having a chemically bonded aminopropyl phase and with an eluent consisting of formamide-water (1:5). The GPC retention results indicated the successful separation of polyacrylamides having molecular weights in the range 10⁴–10⁶. GPC of polyacrylamide with this separation system appeared to be dominated by a steric exclusion mechanism.     

Darstellung und spektroskopische Eigenschaften von Nitridophthalocyaninatorhenium(V)

Preparation and Spectroscopical Properties of Nitridophthalocyaninatorhenium(V) Nitridophthalocyaninatorhenium(V) ([ReNPc^2?]) is prepared by the reaction of dirheniumheptoxide with ammoniumiodide in molten 1,2-dicyano-benzene. The diamagnetic complex is chemically und thermically extremely stable. In the Uv-vis spectra the typical π-π*-transitions of the Pc^2? ligand are observed. Extra bands in the solid state spectrum are due to strong excitonic coupling of ca. 2.8 kK. In the resonance Raman spectra the intensity of the Re≡N stretching vibration (v(Re≡N)) at 969 cm^?1 is selectively enhanced by laser excitations above 19.0 kK. v(Re≡N) is a dominant m.i.r. absorption at 976 cm^?1.
