Synthesis and characterization of Di-π-cyclopentadienyl- metal pentasulfides of titanium(IV) and vanadium (IV):an operational test of the influence of an unpaired electron on the molecular geometry

Our preparation of Ti(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂ S₅ by the reaction of elemental sulfur with Ti(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂(CO)₂ in hexane and of V(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅?$\text{1}\text{2}$ H₂O by the reacti of V(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂ Cl₂ with Na₂S₅ in THF and structural analyses by single crystal X-ray diffraction (together with infrared, solution EPR, and temperaturedependent magnetic susceptibility measurements) represent an extension of our previous work on M(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂ (SC₆H₅)₂ (M = Ti, V). The crystallographic results provide further support of our previous conclusions that the Ballhausen—Dahl model is not valid for M(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂L₂ systems. The structuralfeatures of the chair-like titanium and vanadium pentasulfide molecules are compared to the corresponding phenylmercapto analogs and to the chair-like cyclohexasulfur molecule in rhombohedral sulfur. Ti(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅ was isolated as a mixture of monoclinic and orthorhombic Crystalline phases-which were both characterized by preliminary X-ray data. A complete Structural determination and refinement of the monoclinic phase, which contains two independent molecules in a cell of dimensions a 22.843(2), b 7.958(1), c 14.465(1) Å, β 90.074(4)° and symmetry P2₁/c, yielded R₁ 5.3 % and R₂ 5.9 % for 2168 independent diffractometry-collected data with I≥ 2.5o(I). V(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅-$\text{1}\text{2}$ H₂O contains four V(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅ molecules and two water molecules of hydration (of crystallographic site symmetry C₂-2) in onorthorhombic unit cell of symmetry P2₁2₁2 and of dimensions a 13.491(1), b 12.748(1), c 7.715(1) Å. Least-squares refinement of 750 diffractometry data with I≥2.0σ(I) gave R₁ 2.4% and R₂ 3.0% Both of these compounds were independently synthesized and Spectroscopically characterized by Köpf and co-workers, and-a Complete X-ray diffraction study was performed by Epstein and Bernal on a different monoclinic phase of Ti(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅ (isolated by-Köpf). An extraction of V(h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅ with re fluxing benzene under nitrogen atmosphere in a Soxhlet apparatus led to the formation of the previously reported [V₂ (h⁵?C₅H₅)₂S₅]_n compound which was characterized by physical measurements including a preliminary X-ray diffraction study.     

Der A2+-Mechanismus der säurekatalytischen Hydrolyse von Epoxiden und anderen cyklischen Oxa- Verbindungen

It is suggested that the acid catalyzed hydrolyses of isobutene oxide and propene oxide proceed via rate-determining bimolecular reaction between a carbonium ion and solvent water (A2⁺ mechanism). The carbonium ion is formed by ring opening of the protonated epoxide, in a relatively fast preceding step. This mechanism is in agreement with all experimental facts known today. There is evidence for a similar mechanism in the acid catalyzed hydrolyses of cyclic acetals.     

Pyrolysis studies of aromatic polyesters

The products of pyrolysis, at 400°C in vacuo (1 Pa), of poly(ethyleneterephthalate) (PET) and poly(butyleneterephthalate) (PBT) were studied. The products were identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry technique. The highly volatile products of PET contained acetaldehyde, benzene, toluene, styrene and ethylbenzene and in the case of PBT, butadiene, tetrahydrofuran, vinylcyclohexene and ethylbenzene were the major products. A qualitative analysis of the products of low volatility revealed that the main components were benzoic acid, terephthalic acid, monovinyl esters of terephthalic acid and higher oligomers in the case of PET, whereas benzoic acid, monobutenyl esters of terephthalic acid and higher oligomers were the main products from PBT. The results obtained were in good agreement with those obtained from pyrolysis experiments, carried out directly in the mass spectrometer. Mechanisms to explain the occurrence of the different products are proposed.     

Impact of prefractionation using Gradiflow on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and protein identification by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry

Prefractionation of protein samples prior to two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) has the potential to increase the dynamic detection range for proteomic analysis. We evaluated a membrane-based electrophoretic separation technique (Gradiflow) for its ability to fractionate an exoproteome sample from the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei. The sample was separated on the basis of size and charge. Buffer optimization was found to be necessary for successful size fractionation. Fractionation by charge was used to resolve the sample into four fractions that were subjected to analysis by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). Enhanced detection of low-abundance proteins with selective removal of high-abundance species was achieved. Fractionated and unfractionated samples were examined for differences in the ability to identify proteins following 2-DE using trypsin in-gel digestion followed by peptide mass fingerprinting using matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Fractionated samples showed marked improvement in protein identification ability and sequence coverage. This study demonstrates the utility of the Gradiflow for fractionation, resulting in an enhancement of resolution and characterization of a moderately complex proteome.     

The pH-dependent role of superoxide in riboflavin-catalyzed photooxidation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine

[reaction: see text]. The riboflavin-catalyzed photooxidation of 2',3',5'-tri-O-acetyl-8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine generates a radical intermediate that is competitively trapped by H(2)O, O2(-)(*), or O(2). The products of H(2)O trapping have been previously described as the spiroiminodihydantoin (pH >or= 7) and iminoallantoin/guanidinohydantoin (pH < 7) nucleosides. Trapping by O2(-)(*) leads to the oxaluric acid (pH or= 8.6) pathways (R' ', R' ' = H or 2,3,5-tri-O-Ac-ribofuranosyl). The pH-dependent role of superoxide was probed using Mn-SOD and compared to guanosine and 8-methoxyguanosine photooxidation.     

Notiz zur Synthese von Alkyl-, Cycloalkyl- und Aryl-3-aminophenylsulfonen

Syntheses of Some Alkyl, Cycloalkyl and Aryl 3-Aminophenyl Sulfones Syntheses of alkyl ( 1a – 1i, 1m ), cycloalkyl ( 1j, 1k ) and aryl ( 1l ) 3-aminophenyl sulfones were achieved by ethanolic Béchamp-reduction of the appropriate 3-nitrophenyl sulfones ( 3a – 3m ). The alkyl ( 3a – 3i ) and cycloalkyl ( 3j, 3k ) 3-nitrophenyl sulfones were prepared via nitration of their respective sulfones ( 2a – 2k ). Methyl (3-nitrophenyl) sulfone ( 3a ) was also prepared by condensation of 3-nitrobenzenesulfinic acid ( 4 ) with bromoacetic acid to 3-nitrophenylsulfonyl-acetic acid ( 5 ) followed by decarboxylation.     

One-dimensional magnetism and crystal structure ofcatena-di-bromobis(3,5-dimethylpyridine)copper(II)

Summary Crystals ofcatena-di--bromobis(3,5-dimethylpyridine)copper(II) are monoclinic, space group P2₁/a. The unit cell constants area=13.900(2),b=14.416(2),c=4.097(1) Å,=93.49(2)°, V=819.4 ų and Z=2. The structure was determined from powder data using a Guinier-Johansson focussing powder camera. The structure was solved using a simplex method for function minimization to a conventional R-value of 0.13.The structure consists of infinite linear chains parallel toc in which the copper coordination is distorted elongated octahedral. Cu-Br distances were found to be 2.449(7) and 3.286(7) Å, whereas the Cu-N bond length is 2.02(2) Å. All distances are in the range usually observed for this type of compounds.The antiferromagnetic superexchange interactions between adjacent Cu^II ions (J = –21 cm^–1) has been compared with those observed in structural similar CuBr₂L₂ compounds. The differences in observed J-values are discussed briefly, in relation to the structural variations. It appears that very small changes in structural parameters strongly affect the magnetic exchange.     

Purification and analysis of partially alkylated cyclodextrins by liquid and gas chromatography

Complex mixtures of partially alkylated cyclodextrins can be analyzed by both HPLC and high temperature capillary GC. Because of the limited efficiency of LC, suitable analytical and preparative separations can be achieved only with systems of carefully optimized selectivity. Using LC it has been possible to isolate and purify single cyclodextrin species from very complex mixtures of components which contain unreacted hydroxyl groups in addition to the alkoxy groups. Analysis of the reaction mixtures and of fractions taken from LC separations can be performed with advantage by high resolution capillary GC at high temperatures between 300 and 400 °C. The thermal stability of partially alkylated cyclodextrins in high temperature GC is considerably increased by trimethylsilylation of the free hydroxyl groups. Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry and proton NMR were used to identify species isolated from the preparative LC separations.     

Beiträge zur Chemie der Pyrrolpigmente, 20. Mitt.: Untersuchungen über das Deprotonierungsgleichgewicht und die Bildung von Metallkomplexen von Gallenpigment-Partialstrukturen

By spectrophotometric measurements in the systemDMSO/H₂O/Me ₄NOH pK _a-values for several model compounds representing bile pigment partial structures were established. The acidic protons of pyrrole and lactame type nitrogen atoms are removed by bases governed by the electronic properties of the substituents on these ring systems. The pK _a-values for both types lie in the same region. In the pyrromethenones the lower one corresponds to the lactame type NH as was deduced by comparison with specifically methylated derivatives.The complexation of these ligands is determined by the possibility of removing an acidic proton and achieving a chelate structure by means of an adjacent pyrrolinone type nitrogen atom. Complexes are favoured in the series pyrromethenes > lactim ethers > pyrromethenones. With the latter there are two possibilities: one observed with BF₂-chelation where the lactime form becomes stabilized, the other one with zink where both acidic centers are involved in the bonding.
