Chiral separations of transition metal complexes using capillary zone electrophoresis.

Several buffer additives that may facilitate chiral separation for optically active transition metal (TM) systems are investigated using capillary zone electrophoresis. The TM complexes evaluated exhibit considerable heterogeneity with respect to total complex charge (0 to 4+), ligand type, and identity of the central metal including Ru2+, Ni2+, Cr3+, and Co3+, threo-D[+]-Isocitrate, potassium antimonyl-d-tartrate and dibenzoyl-L-tartrate are identified as the most efficient chiral selectors. Interestingly, TM complexes exhibiting a (3+) total complex charge exhibit a reversal of enantiomer elution order versus all other complexes when separated using the tartrate additives. Operating parameters including pH, temperature, and capillary length are discussed, and chiral separations of complex mixtures are demonstrated.

Structural and magnetic properties of size-controlled Mn<Subscript>0.5</Subscript>Zn<Subscript>0.5</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>4</Subscript> nanoparticles and magnetic fluids

Mn_0.5Zn_0.5Fe₂O₄ ferrite nanoparticles with tunable Curie temperature and saturation magnetization are synthesized using hydrothermal co-precipitation method. Particle size is controlled in the range of 54 to 135 Å by pH and incubation time of the reaction. All the particles exhibit super-paramagnetic behaviour at room temperature. Langevin’s theory incorporating the interparticle interaction was used to fit the virgin curve of particle magnetization. The low-temperature magnetization follows Bloch spin wave theory. Curie temperature derived from magnetic thermogravimetric analysis shows that Curie temperature increases with increasing particle size. Using these particles magnetic fluid is synthesized and magnetic characterization is reported. The monolayer coating of surfactant on particle surface is confirmed using thermogravimetric measurement. The same technique can be extended to study the magnetic phase transition. The Curie temperature derived using this measurement complies with the low-temperature magnetic measurement. The room-temperature and high-temperature magnetization measurements are also studied for magnetic fluid systems. The magnetic parameters derived for fluid are in good agreement with those obtained for the particle system.     

Kinetics of osmium(VIII) catalyzed oxidation of allyl alcohol by potassium bromate in aqueous acidic medium‐autocatalysis in catalysis

The kinetics of oxidation of allyl alcohol with potassium bromate in the presence of osmium(VIII) catalyst in aqueous acid medium has been studied under varying conditions. The active species of oxidant and catalyst in the reaction were understood to be Bro₃⁻ and H₂OsO₅, respectively. The autocatalysis exhibited by one of the products, that is, Br⁻, was attributed to complex formation between bromide and osmium(VIII). A composite scheme and rate law were possible. Some reaction constants involved in the mechanism have been evaluated. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 31: 583–589, 1999     

Catalytic Asymmetric Epoxidation of Aldehydes with Two VANOL‐Derived Chiral Borate Catalysts

A highly diastereo‐ and enantioselective method for the epoxidation of aldehydes with α‐diazoacetamides has been developed with two different borate ester catalysts of VANOL. Both catalytic systems are general for aromatic, aliphatic, and acetylenic aldehydes, giving high yields and inductions for nearly all cases. One borate ester catalyst has two molecules of VANOL and the other only one VANOL. Catalysts generated from BINOL and VAPOL are ineffective catalysts. An application is shown for access to the side‐chain of taxol.     

Thiacalixarene Appended Azo-based Supramolecular Systems: Self-assembly and Photo Tuning Reversible Liquid Crystalline Properties

Four new azo-based supramolecular materials containing thiacalixarene core substituted by variable alkoxy groups ( TFA₁ – TFA₄ ) have been designed and synthesized for the mesomorphic and photoswitching properties. The liquid crystalline behavior were accomplished by using DSC, POM, and XRD studies. All azo-based thiacalixarene based materials with short and higher chain length display columnar hexagonal mesophase with broad temperature range. The thermal behavior of all the materials was investigated by DSC and TGA study. The structural and conformational study of the lower rim functionalized materials was confirmed by using different techniques. These thiacalixarene moulded liquid crystalline compounds shows columnar self-assembly type behavior and higher thermal stability. The introduction of bi-substituted azo-ester network towards the lower rim of thiacalixarene core has impact on the electron delocalization and liquid crystalline properties. The photoswitching properties suggested cis and trans azo-isomerization under radiation of UV light and higher thermal back relaxation time. The mesogenic behaviour of compound TFA₂ and TFA₄ were demolished by the influence of cis and trans isomerization. The structure-property correlation is studied to understand the variation in mesogenic properties with the substitution of variable alkoxy side chain.     

Growth and etching of calcite crystals

Single crystals of calcite (CaCO₃) have been grown by the method employed by GRUZENSKY , using an aquoeus solution of CaCl₂ and a solid (NH₄)₂SO₃, The chemical reaction takes place according to the following equation: CaCl₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₃ CaCO₃ + 2 NH₄Cl The crystals grown by this method are about 0.2 to 0.8 mm in edge dimensions. Synthetic calcite crystals have been cleaved along (100) planes and the cleavage surfaces have been studied by multiple beam interferometry. The interferograms have revealed that the cleavages are quite flat. The cleavage faces have also been chemically etched and the etch patterns studied optically. By etching a cleavage successively for three different periods it was found that the bottoms of the point-bottomed pits follow a linear etch path. By etching a cleavage pair, one face in one etchant and the other face in a different etchant and by comparing the etch patterns produced, before and after polishing a cleavage face it has been shown that the etch pits nucleate at the sites of dislocations in the crystal. The etch patterns have also been compared with those produced on the cleavage faces of natural crystals. The density of dislocations in the syntheitc calctie crystals was generally less than the density of dislocations in the natural calcite crystals. The implications have been discussed.     

Growth of single crystals of potassium chloride from gels

The growth of single crystals of potassium chloride (KCl) in silica gels upto 3 × 3 × 3 mm³ in size is described. To crystallize KCl incorporated in the gel, hydrochloric acid has been used to crystallize the KCl in the gel media. The crystalline perfection has been studied by the chemical etch pit technique.
