The hydrogen‐bonded adduct 7,16‐diazonia‐18‐crown‐6–4‐aminobenzenesulfonate–water (1/2/2)

In the title hydrated adduct, 1,4,10,13‐tetraoxa‐7,16‐diazo­nia­cyclo­octa­decane bis(4‐amino­benzene­sulfonate) dihydrate, C₁₂H₂₈N₂O₄²⁺·2C₆H₆NO₃S⁻·2H₂O, formed between 7,16‐di­aza‐18‐crown‐6 and the dihydrate of 4‐amino­benzene­sulfonic acid, the macrocyclic cations lie across centres of inversion in the orthorhombic space group Pbca. The anions alone form zigzag chains, and the cations and anions together form sheets that are linked via water mol­ecules and anions to form a three‐dimensional grid.     

Solubility Behavior in Ternary Water-Salt Systems under Sub- and Supercritical Conditions

Summary.  Two main types of binary systems with distinctive solubility behavior under sub- and supercritical conditions were used to subdivide ternary water-salt systems into three classes. Characteristic features of solubility behavior and phase equilibria in ternary water-salt systems of each class at temperatures above 200°C are discussed on the basis of available experimental data and some conclusions obtained as a result of theoretical derivation of fluid and complete phase diagrams.

Sulfonated and sulfoacylated poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) copolymers as packing materials for cation chromatography

Three different types of cation exchangers were produced from four basic poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) substrates with different properties. Porous PS-DVB resin beads were functionalized by sulfonation and sulfoacylation under various conditions to produce sulfonated resins with exchange capacities of 0.03-1.80 mM g(-1). The matrix with 50% of cross-linking is most suitable for updating by the proposed technique. Sulfuric and chlorosulfonic acids were used as the reagents for sulfonation. The sulfonating conditions, capacities, and the technique of the synthesis are given. The effects of parameters of the sulfonation reaction and the composition of the reactionary mixture on ion-exchange capacity of the sorbents were investigated. Selectivity and efficiency of the separation of some inorganic cations and derivatives of amines and hydrazines on the resins obtained are compared by ion chromatography with conductometric detection. As a result, the sulfoacylated resin was proved more efficient for the separation of these analytes. The resolution of the analytes strongly depends on the degree of functionalization. The best performance about 19,000 plates m(-1) was obtained using the sulfopropionylated beads with an ion-exchange capacity of 0.3 mM g(-1). The prepared sulfoacylated cation exchanger was compared with the commercially available Dionex CS-12 packing material. It was found that the separation of alkaline ions and 1,1-dimethylhydrazine (UDMH) were much better that those for the commercial material.     

Catalyst-Free Arylation of Tertiary Phosphines with Diaryliodonium Salts Enabled by Visible Light

The visible-light-induced arylation of tertiary phosphines with aryl(mesityl)iodonium triflates to produce the quaternary phosphonium salts occurs under mild, metal, and catalyst-free conditions. Photo-excited EDA complexes between diaryliodonium salts and phosphines supposedly enable this transformation, which is difficult to achieve through the traditional ground-state reactions. Demonstrating high functional group tolerance, broad scope, and complete selectivity of the aryl group transfer, the method is particularly compatible with sterically congested phosphines, which are challenging under metal-based catalytic methods.     

Synthesis of 1-(4-substituted)benzyl-6-hydroxyisoquinolines with potential activity on NA+,K+-atpase

The synthesis of 1-(4-substituted)benzyl-6-hydroxyisoquinolines, to be evaluated in the displacement of the specific ³H-ouabain binding to Na⁺,K⁺-ATPase, is described. The key step involved a cyclization to the isoquinoline ring under Pictet-Gams conditions which was best performed with the 6-hydroxy group protected as the benzyl ether. When an unsaturated ester group was present in position 4 of the 1-benzyl group, this was best introduced before the cyclization step, since the IIeck reaction on 1-(4-bromobenzyl)-6-hydroxyisoquinoline ( 8 ) with acrylic acid derivatives was not successful in all cases.

Imitation of biomembranes on the basis of cholic acid and endogenic thermostable protein complex in biopartitioning micellar chromatography

The structure of biomembranes was imitated by introducing nonionic surfactant polyoxyethylene (23) dodecylether, cholic acid and endogenic thermostable protein complex (14–65 kDa) into the mobile phase. The influence of concentration of these additives on the retention of the model compounds was studied. The competing interaction of cholic acid and endogenic thermostable protein complex in the lipid bilayer model was revealed on the basis of chromatographic data. The values of efficiency of the chromatographic column regarding solutes were increased by addition of endogenic thermostable protein complex to the mobile phase containing Brij‐35 and cholic acid.

Bis(oxofluorenediyl)oxacyclophanes: synthesis, crystal structure and complexation with paraquat in the gas phase

The first three representatives of the new family of oxacyclophanes incorporating two 2,7-dioxyfluorenone fragments, connected by [-CH(2)CH(2)O-](m) spacers (m=2-4), have been synthesized. The yield of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) is considerably higher with respect to the larger ones (m=3 and m=4), which are formed in comparable yields. Molecular modeling and NMR spectra analysis of the model compounds suggest that an essential difference in oxacyclophanes yields is caused by formation of quasi-cyclic intermediates, which are preorganized for macrocyclization owing to intramolecular pi-pi stacking interactions between the fluorenone units. The solid-state structures of these oxacyclophanes exhibit intra- and intermolecular pi-pi stacking interactions that dictate their rectangular shape in the fluorenone backbone and crystal packing of the molecules with the parallel or T-shape arrangement. The crystal packing in all cases is also sustained by weak C--HO hydrogen bonds. FAB mass spectral analysis of mixtures of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4) and a paraquat moiety revealed peaks corresponding to the loss of one and two PF(6) (-) counterions from the 1:1 complexes formed. However, no signals were observed for complexes of the paraquat moiety with the smaller oxacyclophane (m=2). Computer molecular modeling of complexes revealed a pseudorotaxane-like incorporation of the paraquat unit, sandwiched within a macrocyclic cavity between the almost parallel-aligned fluorenone rings of the larger oxacyclophanes (m=3 and m=4). In contrast to this, only external complexes of the smallest oxacyclophane (m=2) with a paraquat unit have been found in the energy window of 10 kcal mol(-1).
