The (n,n)-graphs with the first three extremal Wiener indices

Let G = (V, E) be a simple connected graph with vertex set V and edge set E. The Wiener index W(G) of G is the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices in G, i.e., , where d _G (u, v) is the distance between vertices u and v in G. In this paper, we first give a new formula for calculating the Wiener index of an (n,n)-graph according its structure, and then characterize the (n,n)-graphs with the first three smallest and largest Wiener indices by this formula.

Selective Ortho Chlorination of Phenols with n,n-Dichloro-t-Butylamine in Various Solvents

Chlorination of phenol with N,N-dichlororo-t-butylamine (DCB) in appropriate solvents affording o- and p-chlorophenols exhibits high ortho/para ratio up to >10. Solvents associate with phenolic OH group and interfere with the hydrogen bonding between phenol and DCB tend to decrease both rate of reaction and ortho/para ratio; e.g., <1.1 in acetonitrile. The reaction shows autocatalysis exerted by a product, t-butylamine, which would accelerate the reaction by abstracting a proton from the benzene site on which C1 of DCB attacks. Anhydrous sodium phenoxide is little chlorinated. These facts imply a transition state in which phenol and DCB is hydrogen-bonded for the ortho chlorination. This type of chlorination is applicable to the ortho chlorination of other phenols.     

Self-Assembly of Chiral Cyclohexanohemicucurbit[n]urils with Bis(Zn Porphyrin): Size,Shape, and Time-Dependent Binding

In order to investigate the ability of bis(zinc octaethylporphyrin) (bis–ZnOEP) to discriminate cyclohexanohemicucurbit[n]urils (cycHC[n]) of different shapes and sizes, the self-assembly of barrel-shaped chiral cycHC[n] with bis–ZnOEP was studied by various spectroscopic methods (absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD), and NMR). While the binding of 6-membered cycHC[6] induced a tweezer-like conformation followed by the formation of anti-form of bis–ZnOEP upon further addition of cycHC[6], the interaction of 8-membered cycHC[8] is more complex and proceeds through the featured syn-to-anti conformational change of bis–ZnOEP and further intermolecular self-assembly via multiple noncovalent associations between cycHC[8] and bis–ZnOEP. Whilst bis–porphyrins are known to be effective chemical sensors able to differentiate various guests based on their chirality via induced CD, their ability to sense small differences in the shape and size of relatively large macrocycles, such as chiral cycHC[6] and cycHC[8], is scarcely examined. Both studied complexes exhibited characteristic induced CD signals in the region of porphyrin absorption upon complexation.

Chelating properties of n,n,n,n-tetrakis-(phosphonomethyl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine

The octasodium salt of N,N,N',N'-tetrakis-(phosphonomethyl)-1,2-cyclohoxanediamine, Na₈-CDTMP, can be prepared in 45% yield from chloromethylphosphonic acid and 1,2-cyclohexanediamine. The titration curve resulting from the titration of the acid, CDTMP, with sodium hydroxide at 25° and μ = 0.1 was used to estimate the eight pK values for the free acid. The stability constants of metal chelatles of CDTMP were measured at 25° and μ = 0.1 potentiometrically.
