Convenient syntheses of "heavy fluorous" cyclopentadienes and cyclopentadienyl complexes with three to five ponytails

Reactions of (eta5-C5H(5-x)Brx)M(CO)3(M = Re, Mn; x= 1, 3, 4, 5) and IZn(CH2)2R(f8) in the presence of Cl2PdL2 catalysts give the title complexes (eta5)-C5H(5-x)(CH2)2R(f8)x)M(CO3), accompanied in the case of x= 5 by hydride-transfer byproducts. Extremely high fluorophilicities are realized, and the cyclopentadienyl ligands are readily detached (hnu) from the manganese complexes.     

Facile synthesis of O6-alkyl-, O6-aryl-, and diaminopurine nucleosides from 2'-deoxyguanosine

The 3',5'-bis-O-TBDMS derivative of 2'-deoxyguanosine can be converted to its O6-alkyl and O6-aryl ethers as well as to N6-substituted diaminopurine nucleosides in two simple steps. Also described is a novel, nonaqueous, one-step O6-desulfonylation method that leads to deprotection of the carbonyl moiety of 2'-deoxyguanosine.     

Aza-Diels-Alder reaction in fluorinated alcohols. A one-pot synthesis of tetrahydroquinolines

Hexafluoroisopropanol and trifluoroethanol are found to promote imino-Diels-Alder reactions of the N-aryl aldimine 1 with alkyl vinyl ethers to afford the corresponding tetrahydroquinolines in good yields without Lewis acid under mild and neutral conditions. The reaction is also efficient in a three component process from aldehyde, amine and vinyl ethers.     

Synthesis and spectral characterization of some complexes of platinum(II) containing η-methyleugenol

Several complexes of the formula trans-[Pt(Meug)(Am)Cl₂], Meug: methyleugenol (4-allyl-1,2-dimethoxybenzene), a η²-coordinated olefin, and Am: ammine, methylamine, diethylamine, o-toluidine, m-toluidine, p-toluidine, o-anisidine, m-anisidine and p-anisidine have been prepared. UV, IR, Raman, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and 2D NMR spectra of the complexes were recorded and analyzed.     

Synthesis and Conformational Analysis of the Multidrug Resistance-Reversing Agent Hapalosin and Its Non-N-methyl Analog

Hapalosin was initially synthesized by macrolactonization, and a second synthesis was achieved by cycloamidation. In both syntheses, three of the five stereocenters in hapalosin were established by two Brown allylboration reactions. The synthesis of the non-N-Me analog of hapalosin involved chelation-controlled reduction of a gamma-amino-beta-keto ester and cycloamidation. In CDCl(3) at 25 degrees C, synthetic hapalosin exists as a 2.3:1 mixture of conformers, while its non-N-Me analog exists only as a single conformer. (1)H,(1)H-NOESY and computation reveal that the configuration of the amide bond is responsible for the conformations of the two compounds. The major conformer of hapalosin is found to be an s-cis amide, the minor conformer an s-trans amide, and the non-N-Me analog an s-trans amide. Applying distance constraints to protons that exhibit NOESY correlations, computation shows that the major conformer of hapalosin and the non-N-Me analog have very different conformations. By contrast, the minor conformer of hapalosin and the non-N-Me analog have very similar conformations.

On the Hamming distances of repeated-root constacyclic codes of length 4ps

Let $p$ be an odd prime, $s$, $m$ be positive integers, $\gamma ,\lambda$ be nonzero elements of the finite field ${\mathbb{F}}_{p^m}$ such that ${\gamma }^{p^s}=\lambda$. In this paper, we show that, for any positive integer $\eta$, the Hamming distances of all repeated-root $\lambda$-constacyclic codes of length $\eta p^s$ can be determined by those of certain simple-root $\gamma$-constacyclic codes of length $\eta$. Using this result, Hamming distances of all constacyclic codes of length $4p^s$ are obtained. As an application, we identify all MDS $\lambda$-constacyclic codes of length $4p^s$.
