Transition metal nitrosyls as nitrosylation agents : II.Photo-nitrosylation of η5-C5H5V(CO)3L(L = CO,Pz3) by [Co(NO)2Br]2

η⁵-C₅H₅V(NO)₂CO is prepared in 40% yield by the photo-reaction between η⁵-C₅H₅V(CO)₄ and [Co(NO)₂Br]₂.η⁵-C₅H₅V(NO)₂CO reacts by an S_N1 mechanism with various phosphines PZ₃ to yield η⁵-C₅-H₅V(NO)₂PZ₃. The phosphine complexes are also obtained by photo-induced ligand interchange between η⁵-C₅H₅V(CO)₃PZ₃ and [Co(NO)₂Br]₂, or η⁵-C₅H₅V(CO)₄ and Co(NO)₂Br(PZ₃). In all cases, the main cobalt species formed is Co(NO)(CO)₃. While the one-bond vanadiumphosphorus coupling constants of most of the phosphine complexes are virtually the same (ca 410 Hz),the chemical shift values δ(⁵¹V) (?1328 to ?973 ppm rel. VOCl₃) decrease in the order PF₃ > CO > P(OR)₃ > P(alkyl)₃ > PPh₃ > PPh(NEt₂)₂, reflecting the decreasing π-acceptor ability of the ligands. δ(⁵¹V) also decreases in the series of alkylphosphines PR₃ (R = Me, Et, Prⁿ, Buⁱ, Prⁱ, BU^t) as the cone angle of PR₃increases.

Alstonia scholaris: Struktur des Indolalkaloides Narelin

Alstonia scholaris: The structure of the indole alkaloid nareline Besides the known akuammidine, picralinal, picrinine and pseudoakuammigine a new indole alkaloid called nareline (M=352) was isolated from Alstonia scholaris R. BR. , which belongs to the plant family of Apocynaceae. Its structure 2 was deduced by single crystal X-ray diffraction. 2 represents the absolute configuration. The spectroscopic data of 2 and its derivatives (Scheme 1) as well as their chemical behavior support this structure. In biogenetic sense nareline is related to the bases akuammiline ( 4 ) and picraline ( 5 ) (Scheme 2). In contrast to those the C-atom 5 is exocyclic and represents an aldehyde group which forms together with the oxygen atom of the N (4)-hydroxylamine group a cyclic half acetale. - By oxidation (CrO₃/CH₃COOH) of 2 the oxindol derivative 19 (oxonareline) is formed which contains a cyclic acetal as a partial structure element (Scheme 4).     

Untersuchungen über ternäre Chalkogenide. XXIV. Zur Struktur des TlGaSe2

On Ternary Chalcogenides. XXIV. The Structure of TlGaSe₂ TlGaSe₂ is monoclinic with a = 10.772(3), b = 10.771(5), c = 15.636(8) Å, ß = 100.6(3)°, Z = 16, space group Cc. The refinement yielded an R value of 0.082 for 1366 unique observed reflections (MoKα). The compound crystallizes with a layer structure with two anion layers perpendicular to c* in the unit cell. The structural motive of the layers are large corner-linked Ga₄Se₁₀- tetraeder consisting of four corner-linked GaSe₄ tetrahedra. Two adjacent layers are turned relative to each other by 90°. They are kept together by Tl¹⁺ ions, which are situated on straight lines parallel to the edges of the Ga₄Se₁₀ groups. They are surrounded by six selenium atoms forming trigonal-prismatic TlSe₆ polyhedra. 4₂ screw-axes within the layers are the reason for a strongly pronounced pseudo tetragonal symmetry. Different possibilities of stacking cause a onedimensional disorder along the c* direction. The relations between the TlGaSe₂ type and the TlSe type and also the high-pressure modifications of some compounds with the TlGaSe₂ structure are discussed.     

Ein Dreikomponenten-Zweiphasensystem für die schnelle Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie

Zusammenfassung Für die Hochdruck-Flüssigkeits-Chromatographie wird ein Dreikomponenten-Zweiphasensystem beschrieben. Die Mischungslücke besteht zwischen dem wenig polaren Methylenchlorid und dem stark polaren Wasser und kann durch Zugabe von Äthanol als Lösungsvermittler geschlossen werden. Durch den Anteil der stark polaren Komponente in den jeweils koexistenten Phasen ist die Polarität von stationärer und mobiler Phase als stationäre gebunden und aus der mobilen immer wieder regeneriert. Durch Verteilungs-Chromatographie in der Mischungslücke ist eine Vielzahl von Stoffklassen der Trennung zugänglich, so z.B. Corticosteroide, Östrogene, Phenole, Phenolcarbonsäuren usw.

A three-component two-phase system for high speed liquid chromatography

Summary High pressure liquid chromatography with a three-component two-phase system is described. For the less polar methylenechloride and the highly polar water a wide range of incomplete miscibility exists which can be decreased with ethanol. The water content of the coexistent phases determines the polarity of the stationary and the mobile phases. The more polar phase is adsorbed on silicagel as the column support material and serves as the stationary phase. Numerous compounds can be separated by partition chromatography between the coexistent phases, for instance; corticosteroids, estrogens, phenols, phenol-carboxylic acids and so on

     

Beitrag zur Massenspektrometrie substituierter α, ω-Alkandiamine. 29. Mitteilung über massenspektrometrische Untersuchungen

Contribution to the mass spectrometry of substituted α,ω-alkane diamines The main mass spectral fragmentation pattern of compounds of types 1 to 4 is discussed. After loss of C₆H₅ · CH₂ · from the molecular ion the acid correspondin to the N,N-disubstituted residue is splitted off. The mechanism of this fragmentation reaction depends on the member of CH₂-groups between the two nitrogen atoms (Schemes 1 and 3) and on the substitution pattern of both nitrogens (Scheme 2).     

Enantioselektive Synthese von Allyl-, Propargyl- und 4-En-2-inyl-aminen durch 1,2-Addition von Organocer-Reagenzien an chirale Aldimine

Enantioselective Synthesis of Allyl-, Propargyl-, and 4-En-2-ynyl-amines via 1,2-Addition of Organocerium Reagents to Chiral Aldehyde Imines (E)- and (Z)-Allyl-, propargyl-, and 4-en-2-ynyl-amines 5 and 14 , useful bifunctional building blocks and of pharmaceutical interest, are synthesized in high enantiomeric purity (e.e. ≥ 97%). Key step is the diastereoselective 1,2-addition (d.e. 86 to ≥ 98%) of organocerium reagents to chiral α,β-unsaturated aldehyde imines 3 or 8 to produce adduct amines 4 and 9 (Schemes 1 and 4, resp.). The propargylamine 9 is a substrate for Pd-catalyzed coupling with alkenyl halides to produce the enynylamine 11a and the thienyl-substituted alkynylamine 11b . The chiral auxiliary (S,S)- 2 is removed from 4 and 11 in 3 steps affording the title compounds 5 and 14 . Diastereoisomer enrichment of the hydrochloride of 6 by crystallization is possible.     

The phenolic oxidation of a β-methylchalcone

The phenolic oxidation of 2',4-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-β-methylchalcone using alkaline potassium ferricyanide gives an aurone rather than an isoflavone. This result is discussed in the context of current theories regarding the biosynthesis of flavonoid and isoflavonoid compounds.     

Cover Picture

The cover picture shows a model of the "progenitor-TADDOLs" in front of a panorama of the Fünffingersstocks and the Wenden Glacier in the Titlisgebiet (Switzerland). The model is flanked by a stylized view of the general mechanistic model for the preferred stereochemical pathway of the Ti-TADDOLate-catalyzed reaction of chelating substrates (left) and a blackboard (right) showing formulae of compounds that can be prepared with high enantioselectivity by nucleophilic addition in the presence of titanium TADDOLates. From TADDOL, introduced in 1982, a genuine auxiliary system for the "introduction of chirality" (not only by reaction) has been developed, which, in the final sprint against the competition has a good chance of securing a place on the winning podium. The photograph of the mountain landscape was taken by Dr. J. Frackenpohl, the cover picture was generated by one of the authors (A.H.) of the comprehensive review of TADDOLs in this issue (p. 92 ff.) with the help of the program Povray.
