Reaktionen von MoNCl3 und WNCl3 mit elementarem Fluor. Kristallstrukturen von [MoO2F2(THF)2] und [WF4(NCl)(CH3CN)]

Reactions of MoNCl₃ and WNCl₃ with Elemental Fluorine. Crystal Structures of [MoO₂F₂(THF)₂] and [WF₄(NCl)(CH₃CN)] The nitrido chlorides MoNCl₃ and WNCl₃ as well as WCl₄(NCl) react with elemental fluorine forming the N-chloro imido complexes MoF₄(NCl) and WF₄(NCl), which were characterized by IR spectroscopy. With tetrahydrofurane MoF₄(NCl) reacts to give [MoF₄(NCl)(THF)], which in THF solution slowly converts into [MoO₂F₂(THF)₂]. From WF₄(NCl) with acetonitrile the complex [WF₄(NCl)(CH₃CN)] is obtained. Both donor acceptor complexes were characterized by crystal structure determinations. [MoO₂F₂(THF)₂] : Space group P2₁/n, Z = 4, structure solution with 1823 unique reflections, R = 0.033 for reflections with I > 2σ(I). Lattice dimensions at ?40°C: a = 636.2, b = 1119.5, c = 1625.2 pm; β = 93.92(1)º.

Metallorganische Verbindungen mit N-substituierten 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridon-Liganden: quadratisch-planare Rhodium(I)-, Iridium(I)- und Palladium(II)-Komplexe

Organometallic Compounds with N -substituted 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridone Ligands: square planar Rhodium(I), Iridium(I), and Palladium(II) Complexes Reactions of [(OC)₂MCl]₂ (M = Rh, Ir) or [(cod)RhCl]₂ with the anions of N-Aryl or N-Alkyl substituted 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyridones (O–O′) yield complexes of the general formula [L₂M(O–O′)]. Compounds of this type are also available from reactions of [(OC)₂Rh(acac)] with the corresponding neutral ligands. Substitution of one carbonyl-ligand of the N-phenyl complex [(OC)₂Rh(C₁₂H₁₀NO₂)] ( 2 ) with cyclooctene affords [(OC)(C₈H₁₄)Rh(C₁₂H₁₀NO₂)] ( 8 ). The palladium complexes [(R₃P)Pd(O–O′)Cl] (R = Et, Bu), [(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂) · Pd(O–O′)] and [(Et₃P)₂Pd(O–O′)]BF₄ ( 9 – 12 ) were synthesized from [(R₃P)PdCl₂]₂, [(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂)PdCl]₂ or [(Et₃P)PdCl₂]. The structures of the N-methyl compounds [(OC)₂Rh(C₇H₈NO₂)] ( 1 ) and [(Ph₃P)Pd(C₇H₈NO₂)Cl] ( 9 ) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Novel Carboxyl Esterase Preparations for the Resolution of Linalyl Acetate

 Biocatalytic resolution of the tertiary terpene alcohol (±)-linalool was accomplished via hydrolysis of its corresponding acetate ester using two highly enantiospecific enzymes (E > 100). The latter were identified in a crude cell-free extract of Rhodococcus ruber DSM 43338 and could be separated by (partial) protein purification. Since they showed opposite enantiopreference, they were termed (R)- and (S)-linalyl acetate hydrolase (LAH). The activity and selectivity of the enzyme preparations was markedly dependent on the fermentation conditions.     

Synthesis of 12-aza analogs of epothilones and (E)-9,10-dehydroepothilones

N-Boc-12-aza-epothilone analog (azathilone) 1 is a potent inhibitor of human cancer cell growth and represents a structurally new class of natural product-derived microtubule-stabilizing agents. Compound 1 has been prepared employing a convergent strategy that is based on the consecutive assembly of building blocks 3, 4, and 19 into diene 20 and subsequent RCM-mediated macrocycle formation. The aldol reaction between aldehyde 3 and ketone 4 delivered the required 6R,7S diastereoisomer 5 with good selectivity and provided a reliable entry into the stereoselective synthesis of carboxylic acid 12. RCM with diene 20 was highly E-selective, thus giving efficient access to (E)-9,10-dehydro-1 (2). The latter is a key analog in SAR studies with 1.     

Crystal chemistry and physical properties of the ternary compounds REBC (RE = Ce,Pr, Nd)

The ternary rare-earth metal boride carbides REBC (RE = Ce, Pr, Nd) were prepared by melting mixtures of the elements and subsequent annealing at temperatures between 1270 K and 1570 K. Their crystal structures were refined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data. They crystallize in the LaBC-type structure (space group P2₁2₁2₁, Z = 20); CeBC: a = 8.5021(5) Å, b = 8.5217(7) Å, c = 12.3834(7) Å, R1 = 0.033 (wR2 = 0.059) for 2838 reflections with I_o > 2σ(I_o); PrBC: a = 8.4478(5) Å, b = 8.4719(8) Å, c = 12.325(1) Å, R1 = 0.031 (wR2 = 0.063) for 2564 reflections with I_o > 2σ(I_o); NdBC: a = 8.370(1) Å, b = 8.392(1) Å, c = 12.253(3) Å, R1 = 0.035 (wR2 = 0.086) for 4275 reflections with I_o > 2σ(I_o). The structure consists of a three-dimensional framework of rare-earth metal atoms resulting from the stacking of slightly corrugated two-dimensional square nets, leading to voids filled with B₅C₅ finite chains. The magnetism of the compounds PrBC and NdBC is characterized by the onset of ferromagnetism with Curie temperatures around 10 K and 8 K, respectively. The reduced effective paramagnetic moment μ_eff ≈ 1.8 μ_B as well as the weak magnetization at 6 K, 5 T is discussed.     

Infrared and Raman study of some isonicotinic acid metal(II) halide and tetracyanonickelate complexes

In this study the M(IN)(2)Ni(CN)(4) [where M: Co, Ni, and Cd, and IN: isonicotinic acid, abbreviated to M-Ni-IN] tetracyanonickelate and some metal halide complexes with the following stoichiometries: M(IN)(6)X(2) (M: Co; X: Cl and Br, and M: Ni; X: Cl, Br and I) and Hg(IN)X(2) (X: Cl, Br, and I) were synthesized for the first time. Certain chemical formulas were determined using elemental analysis results. The FT-IR and Raman spectra of the metal halide complexes were reported in the 4000-0 cm(-1) region. The FT-IR spectra of tetracyanonickelate complexes were also reported in the 4000-400 cm(-1) region. Vibrational assignments were given for all the observed bands. For a given series of isomorphous complexes, the sum of the difference between the values of the vibrational modes of the free isonicotinic acid and coordinated ligand was found to increase in the order of the second ionization potentials of metals. The frequency shifts were also found to be depending on the halogen. The proposed structure of tetracyanonickelate complexes consists of polymeric layers of /M-Ni(CN)(4)/(infinity) with the isonicotinic acid molecules bound directly to the metal atom.     

Atomistic simulation of structure and dynamics of columnar phases of hexabenzocoronene derivatives

Using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations we study solid and liquid crystalline columnar discotic phases formed by alkyl-substituted hexabenzocoronene mesogens. Correlations between the molecular structure, packing, and dynamical properties of these materials are established.     

Bacteriophage and impurity carryover and total organic carbon release during extended protein A chromatography

In the biopharmaceutical industry, column chromatography residuals are routinely assessed by the direct measurement of mock eluates. In this study, we evaluated virus and other impurity carryover between protein A cycles and the feasibility of using a total organic carbon (TOC) analyzer to monitor for column impurity leakage as a correlate for actual measured carryover in mock eluates. Commercial process intermediates were used in scaled down studies of two protein A media, ProSep A (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) and MabSelect SuRe (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden). The chromatography system was programmed to run up to 200 normal load/elution cycles with periodic blank cycles to measure protein and phage carryover, and water flush cycles to measure TOC release. Sustained phage carryover was evident in each study. Carryover and TOC release was lowest in the case where cleaning was most stringent (50 mM NaOH/0.5 M Na₂SO₄ with MabSelect SuRe). The TOC analysis at this time does not appear to be a viable practical means of measuring impurity carryover; direct measurements in mock eluates appears to be more predictive of column performance.
