Pyryliumverbindungen—XII: Synthesen und eigenschaften von 1,2-benzoxalenen (indeno[2,1-b]pyranen)

Pseudoazulenes of the 1,2-benzoxalene type C (indeno[2,1-b]pyranes) are accessible by two new ways: The title compounds 1–10 were synthesized by acid catalysed cyclodeamination of ketovinylated 2-piperidinoindenes F, the compounds 13–36 by deprotonation of 9H-indeno[2,1-b]pyrylium salts L obtained from indan-2-ones and β-diketones. The aromatic nature of the pseudoazulene system is described in terms of various physical and theoretical results (electronic spectra, resonance energies, HMO calculations).     

Lifetime of 2s2p 23s 3 P in N II and other allowed triplet transitions

Systematic transition calculations have been performed for all triplet decay channels from 2s2p ²3s ³ P of N II. The lifetime of 0.505 ns compares favourably with experiment. Transitions in absorption from the 2s ²2p ^{2 3} P ground state have also been determined along with a number of other triplet transitions. Length and velocity forms of thef-value are in agreement at the 2–3% level for most transitions.     

Alkyl and aryl substituted corroles. 1. Synthesis and characterization of free base and cobalt containing derivatives. x-ray structure of (Me(4)Ph(5)Cor)Co(py)(2)

The synthesis, spectroscopic properties, and electrochemistry of six different alkyl- and aryl-substituted Co(III) corroles are presented. The investigated compounds contain methyl, ethyl, phenyl, or substituted phenyl groups at the eight beta-positions of the corrole macrocycle and four derivatives also contain a phenyl group at the 10-meso position of the macrocycle. Each cobalt corrole undergoes four reversible oxidations in CH(2)Cl(2) containing 0.1 M tetra-n-butylammonium perchlorate and exists as a dimer in its singly and doubly oxidized forms. The difference in potential between the first two oxidations is associated with the degree of interaction between the two corrole units of the dimer and ranges from an upper value of 0.62 V, in the case of (Me(6)Et(2)Cor)Co, to a lower value of about 0.17 V, in the case of four compounds which have a phenyl group located at the 10-meso position of the macrocycle. These Co(III) corroles strongly coordinate two pyridine molecules or one carbon monoxide molecule in CH(2)Cl(2) media, and ligand binding constants were evaluated using spectroscopic and electrochemical methods. The structure of (Me(4)Ph(5)Cor)Co(py)(2) was also determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: (Me(4)Ph(5)Cor)Co(py)(2).3CH(2)Cl(2).H(2)O, orthorhombic, a = 19.5690(4) A, b = 17.1070(6) A, c = 15.9160(6) A, V = 5328.2(5) A(3), space group Pna2(1), Z = 2, 35 460 observations, R(F) = 0.069.     

Die Anwendung von Strontium als innerer Standard und Normalisator zur flammenspektrometrischen Bestimmung von Calcium in Gegenwart von verschiedenen St?rpartnern

Zusammenfassung Die bekannten Störeinflüsse von Al, SiO₂, H₂SO₄, H₃PO₄, Fe und U auf die flammenspektrometrische Ca-Bestimmung und ihre Beeinflussung durch Strontium wurden am Flammenspektrometer Beckman DU untersucht und die Resultate diskutiert.Es wurde gezeigt, da\ Störpartner bei gleichzeitiger Anwesenheit von Strontium innerhalb weiter Bereiche auf dessen Emission dieselbe Depression ausüben, wie auf die des Calciums. Das Strontium kann demnach — über seine Wirkung als Normalisator hinaus — als innerer Standard dienen. Unsere Beobachtungen und Vorstellungen stehen in übereinstimmung mit den von Schuhknecht ^14,15 und Alkemade ^2,3 gegebenen.Es wurde ein Analysenverfahren entwickelt, das unter Anwendung von Strontium als Normalisator und innerem Standard eine schnelle flammenspektrometrische Bestimmung von Calcium neben verschiedenartigen Störpartnern ohne Abtrennung oder empirische Korrektur mit guter Genauigkeit gestattet.Der Bereich der Anwendbarkeit der Methode für GerÄte, die mit Filtern und mit der an sich gegen Störungen durch Partner weniger empfindlichen VorzerstÄubung arbeiten, wurde umrissen.Auszug aus der Dissertation von R. Kropp, UniversitÄt Frankfurt/M., 1960. Ein weiterer Auszug ist in einer Veröffentlichung in den Deutschen Glastechnischen Berichten¹⁰ erschienen.     

Multiple bonds between main group elements and transition metals, 155. (Hexamethylphosphoramide) methyl(oxo) bis(η-peroxo)rhenium(VII), the first example of an anhydrous rhenium peroxo complex: crystal structure and catalytic properties

Methyl(oxo)bis(η²-peroxo)rhenium(VII)1, the active species of the system CH₃ReO₃/H₂O₂ in the catalytic oxidation of different organic and organometallic compounds, is stabilized by a water molecule attached to the rhenium center. This water molecule can be removed and substituted by hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) to yield (hexamethylphosphoramide)methyl(oxo)bis(η²-peroxo rhenium(VII) (3). The synthesis, crystal structure (X-ray difraction study), and catalytic properties of which compound are reported. Crystal data are as follows: monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, A = 900.76(7) pm, B = 1229.80(11) pm, C = 1318.57(11) pm, β = 90.251(7)°, R_w = 0.034 for 1878 reflections. The catalytic properties of compound 3 in the oxidation of olefins with H₂O₂ are similar to those of 1.     

Electrochemical behaviour of some neuroleptics: Haloperidol and its derivatives

The electrochemical characteristics of Haloperidol and related compounds, representative neuroleptics of the butyrophenone family, have been investigated as a function of pH and concentration by direct-current, alternating-current and differential-pulse polarography and cyclic voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. A single cathodic wave representing an irreversible two-electron reduction is obtained, and its half-wave potential differs from that characteristic of aromatic ketone reduction. Adsorption processes disturb the wave behaviour and an adsorption prewave is observed at high concentrations. Quantitative measurements were successful in the concentration range 1 x 10(-4)-1 x 10(-6)M (0.4 mg/l.), the lower concentration representing the detection limit by differential-pulse polarography.     

f-Element disiloxanediolates: novel Si-O-based inorganic heterocycles

The preparation and structural characterization of scandium and f-element complexes derived from the disiloxanediolate dianion, [(Ph2SiO)2O]2-, are reported. Reactions of in situ prepared Ln[N(SiMe3)2]3 (Ln = Eu, Sm, Gd) with (Ph2SiOH)2O in different stoichiometries afforded the lanthanide disiloxanediolates [Eu[[(Ph2SiO)2O]Li(Et2O)]3] (1), [[[(Ph2SiO)2O]Li(dme)]2SmCl(dme)] (2), and [[[((Ph2SiO)2O]Li(thf)2]2GdN(SiMe3)2] (3). In situ formed (Ph2SiOLi)2O reacted with anhydrous NdBr3 (molar ratio 3:1) to give polymeric [[Nd[(Ph2SiO)2O]3[mu-Li(thf)]2[mu2LiBrLi(thf)(Et2O)]]n] (4). Treatment of 3 with Ph2Si(OH)2 in the presence of acetonitrile yielded the dilithium trisiloxanediolate derivative [[Ph2Si(OSiPh2O)2][Li(MeCN)]2]2 (5), which according to an X-ray analysis displays an Li4O4 heterocubane structure. The trinuclear scandium complex [[[(Ph2SiO)2O]Sc(acac)2]2Sc(acac)] (6) was obtained by reaction of [(C5Me5)Sc(acac)2] (C5Me5 = eta5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) with (Ph2SiOH)2O in a 3:2 molar ratio. Selective formation of the colorless uranium(VI) derivative [U[Ph2Si(OSiPh20)2]2[(Ph2SiO)2O]] (7) was observed when uranocene, U(eta8-C8H8)2, was allowed to react with (Ph2SiOH)2O. An X-ray diffraction study of the solvated derivative [U[Ph2Si(OSiPh2O)2]2[(Ph2SiO)2O]].Et2O.TMEDA (TMEDA= N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-ethylenediamine) (7a) revealed the presence of both the original [(Ph2SiO)2O]2- dianion as well as the ring-enlarged [Ph2Si(OSiPh2O)2]2- ligand in the same molecule.

Propene polymerization using homogeneous MAO-activated metallocene catalysts: Me2Si(Benz[e]Indenyl)2ZrCl2/MAO vs. Me2Si(2-Me-Benz[e]Indenyl)2ZrCl2/MAO

Propene was polymerized at 40°C and 2-bar propene in toluene using methylalumoxane (MAO) activated rac-Me₂Si(Benz[e]Indenyl)₂ZrCl₂ ( BI ) and rac-Me₂Si(2-Me-Benz[e]Indenyl)₂ZrCl₂ ( MBI ). Catalyst BI /MAO polymerizes propene with high activity to afford low molecular weight polypropylene, whereas MBI /MAO is less active and produces high molecular weight polypropylene. Variation of reaction conditions such as propene concentration, temperature, concentration of catalyst components, and addition of hydrogen reveals that the lower molecular weight polypropylene produced with BI /MAO results from chain transfer to propene monomer following a 2,1-insertion. A large fraction of both metallocene catalyst systems is deactivated upon 2,1-insertion. Such dormant sites can be reactivated by H₂-addition, which affords active metallocene hydrides. This effect of H₂-addition is reflected by a decreasing content of head-to-head enchainment and the formation of polypropylene with n-butyl end groups. Both catalysts show a strong dependence of activity on propene concentration that indicates a formal reaction order of 1.7 with respect to propene. MBI /MAO shows a much higher dependence of the activity on temperature than BI /MAO. At elevated temperatures, MBI /MAO polymerizes propene faster than BI /MAO. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
