Spektroskopische Untersuchungen zu Substituenteneffekten in Silylmethylsilanen

Spectroscopic Investigations on Substituent Effects in Silylmethylsilanes The silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH (n = 1–3), (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH (R = n-Bu, n-Pr, Et, PhCH₂, Ph) and Me₃ElCH₂SiMe₂H (El = Ge, Sn) were prepared. The frequencies of the Si? H stretching vibration, the ²⁹Si? ¹H coupling constants and the ²⁹Si n.m.r. chemical shifts were measured. The ?(SiH) and J(²⁹Si? ¹H) values in the silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH depend on the number of trimethylsilymethyl groups. There is hardly an influence of the substituents R on these values in the silanes (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH. The frequencies of the Si? H stretching vibrations in the silanes Me₃ElCH₂SiMe₂H (El = Si, Ge, Sn) show the order Si?Ge > Sn. The ₂₉Si n.m.r. chemical shifts of the Si(H) signals are approximately equal in the silanes Me_3?n(Me₃SiCH₂)_nSiH and (RMe₂SiCH₂)₃SiH.     

Structural determination of neutral O-linked oligosaccharide alditols by negative ion LC-electrospray-MS<Superscript>n</Superscript>.

Neutral O-linked oligosaccharides released from the salivary mucin MUC5B were separated and detected by negative ion LC-MS and LC-MS(2). The resolution of the chromatography and the information obtained from collision induced dissociation of detected [M - H](-) ions were usually sufficient to identify the sequence of individual oligosaccharides, illustrated by the fact that 50 different oligosaccharides ranging from disaccharides to nonasaccharides could be assigned from the sample. Fragmentation was shown to yield mostly reducing end sequence fragments (Z(i) and Y(i)), enabling primary sequence assignment. Specific fragmentation pathways or patterns were also detected giving specific linkage information. The reducing end core (Gal/GlcNAcbeta1-3GalNAcol or Gal/GlcNAcbeta1-3(GlcNAcbeta1-6)GalNAcol) could be deduced from the pronounced glycosidic C-3 cleavage and A(i) type cleavages of the reducing end GalNAcol, together with the non reducing end fragment from the loss of a single substituted GalNAcol. Substitution patterns on GlcNAc residues were also found, indicative for C-4 substitution ((0,2)A(i) - H(2)O cleavage) and disubstitution of C-3 and C-4 (Z(i)/Z(i) cleavages). This kind of fragmentation can be used for assigning the mode of chain elongation (Galbeta1-3/4GlcNAcbeta1-) and identification of Lewis type antigens like Lewis a/x and Lewis b/y on O-linked oligosaccharides. In essence, negative ion LC-MS(2) was able to generate extensive data for understanding the overall glycosylation pattern of a sample, especially when only a limited amount of material is available.     

Bis(cyclopentadienyl)methan-verbrückte Zweikernkomplexe,V. Heteronukleare Co/Rh-, Co/Ir-, Rh/Ir- und Ti/Ir-Komplexe mit dem Bis(cyclopentadienyl)methan-Dianion als Brückenliganden

Bis(cyclopentadienyl)methane-bridged Dinuclear Complexes, V^[1]. – Heteronuclear Co/Rh-, Co/Ir-, Rh/Ir-, and Ti/Ir Complexes with the Bis(cyclopentadienyl)methane Dianion as Bridging Ligand^* The lithium and sodium salts of the [C₅H₅CH₂C₅H₄]^- anion, 1 and 2 , react with [Co(CO)₄I], [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂, and [Ir(CO)₃Cl]n to give predominantly the mononuclear complexes [(C₅H₅-CH₂C₅H₄)M(CO)₂] ( 3, 5, 7 ) together with small amounts of the dinuclear compounds [CH₂(C₅H₄)₂][M(CO)₂]₂ ( 4, 6, 8 ). The ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra of 3, 5 , and 7 prove that the CH₂C₅H₅ substituent is linked to the π-bonded ring in two isomeric forms. Metalation of 5 and 7 with nBuLi affords the lithiated derivatives 9 and 10 from which on reaction with [Co(CO)₄I], [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂, and [C₅H₅TiCl₃] the heteronuclear complexes [CH₂(C₅H₄)₂][M(CO)₂][M′(CO)₂] ( 11–13 ) and [CH₂(C₅H₄)₂]-[Ir(CO)₂][C₅H₅TiCl₂] ( 17 ) are obtained. Photolysis of 11 and 12 leads almost quantitatively to the formation of the CO-bridged compounds [CH₂(C₅H₄)₂][M(CO)(μ-CO)M′(CO)] ( 14, 15 ). According to an X-ray crystal structure analysis the Co/Rh complex 14 is isostructural to [CH₂(C₅H₄)₂][Rh₂(CO)₂(μ-CO)] ( 16 ).     

Graft polymers with macromonomers. II. Copolymerization kinetics of methacrylate-terminated polystyrene and predicted graft copolymer structures

Copolymerization studies of methacrylate-terminated polystyrene macromonomers (M₁) with several comonomers (M₂) verified the modified kinetic scheme and permitted prediction of graft polymer compositions and structures. Instantaneous and cumulative copolymer compositions, average graft distributions, and grafts per molecule are predicted from FORTRAN IV or BASIC programs. The r₂ relative reactivity ratios determined from styrene copolymerization (0.61) or from low conversion acrylic monomer in aqueous suspension (～0.4) had good agreement with literature values (about 0.6 and 0.4, respectively). Decreased macromonomer reactivity determined at high acrylic monomer conversions was attributed to phase separation phenomena. The Macromers also exhibited lower reactivity than predicted when copolymerized with acrylic monomers in DMSO/benzene solutions (r₂ ～ 0.8).

Das Reaktionsverhalten von Cp2NbCl2 gegenüber WF6—Struktur von [Cp2NbCl2]4[WF6]2[WCl6]

The oxidation of Cp₂NbCl₂ with pure WF₆ in SO₂ solution yielded the cationic metallocene species [Cp₂NbCl₂]⁺[WF₆]⁻ essentially in quantitative yield. The same reaction carried out in the presence of either equimolar amounts or a two-fold excess of HCN led to the preparation of the new niobocenium salt [Cp₂NbCl₂]₄⁺[WF₆]²⁻ which was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction. This compound represents the first example of a structurally characterized metallocene-WF₆⁻ complex, and crystallizes in the tetragonal system: space group, P4₁2₁2(No. 92), a = 11.083(8) Å, c = 48.285 (9) Å; Z = 8; R = 0.0759, R_W = 0.0841. ab]Die Oxidation von Cp₂NbCl₂ mit reinem WF₆ führt in SO₂-Lösung zur Synthese von [Cp₂NbCl₂ ]⁺[WF₆]⁻ in nahezu quantitativer Ausbeute. Die analoge Reaktion führt unter Anwesenheit der äquimolaren Menge oder eines zweifachen Überschusses an HCN zur Ausbildung des Niobocenium-Komplexsalzes [Cp₂NbCl₂]₄⁺ [WF₆]₂⁻[WCl₆]²⁻, von dem eine Röntgenstrukturanalyse angefertigt wurde.

Die Präparation von GaAs-Substraten,untersucht mit Reflexionselektroneninterferenzen

The RHEED-method is used for the examination and characterization of gallium arsenide substrates. It is shown the use of both beam focussing at the object and at the photoplate in studying this subject. It was found that the samples after abrasive cutting and machine lapping give interference patterns of mechanical damaged surfaces with characteristical features. Lap polished surfaces give Kikuchi pattern and a rel-rod pattern of perfect single crystal which is nearly smooth in the atomic level. Critical remarks are given on the Kikuchi pattern as a feature of perfection of the crystal. Results on the penetration depth of rough defects due to machine lapping are in good agreement with data from literature.     

Expanding the hydride chemistry: antiperovskites A3MO4H (A = Rb,Cs; M = Mo,W) introducing the transition oxometalate hydrides

The four compounds A₃MO₄H (A = Rb, Cs; M = Mo, W) are introduced as the first members of the new material class of the transition oxometalate hydrides. The compounds are accessible via a thermal synthesis route with carefully controlled conditions. Their crystal structures were solved by neutron diffraction of the deuterated analogues. Rb₃MoO₄D, Cs₃MoO₄D and Cs₃WO₄D crystallize in the antiperovskite-like K₃SO₄F-structure type, while Rb₃WO₄D adopts a different orthorhombic structure. ²H MAS NMR, Raman spectroscopy and elemental analysis prove the abundance of hydride ions next to oxometalate ions and experimental findings are supported by quantum chemical calculations. The tetragonal phases are direct and wide band gap semiconductors arising from hydride states, whereas Rb₃WO₄H shows a unique, peculiar valence band structure dominated by hydride states.

The synthesis, structures and electronic properties of the first four heteroanionic compounds containing both hydride and transition oxometalate ions are reported.     

Fibrous Networks with Incorporated Macrocycles: A Chiral Stimuli‐Responsive Supramolecular Supergelator and Its Application to Biocatalysis in Organic Media

A new and versatile, crown ether appended, chiral supergelator has been designed and synthesized based on the bis‐urea motif. The introduction of a stereogenic center improved its gelation ability significantly relative to its achiral analogue. This low‐molecular‐weight gelator forms supramolecular gels in a variety of organic solvents. It is sensitive to multiple chemical stimuli and the sol–gel phase transitions can be reversibly triggered by host–guest interactions. The gel can be used to trap enzymes and release them on demand by chemical stimuli. It stabilizes the microparticles in Pickering emulsions so that enzyme‐catalyzed organic reactions can take place in the polar phase inside the microparticles, the organic reactants diffusing through the biphasic interface from the surrounding organic phase. Because of the higher interface area between the organic and polar phases, enzyme activity is enhanced in comparison with simple biphasic systems.
