Palladium-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cocyclotrimerization of benzynes with bicyclic alkenes: an efficient route to anellated 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene derivatives and polyaromatic compounds

An efficient method for the cocyclotrimerization of bicyclic alkenes and benzynes catalyzed by palladium phosphine complexes to give the corresponding norbornane anellated 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene derivatives is described. Bicyclic alkenes 1a-i undergo [2 + 2 + 2] cocyclotrimerization with benzynes generated from precursors 2a-d [2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl triflate (2a), 4,5-dimethyl-2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl triflate (2b), 6-(trimethylsilyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-5-indenyl triflate (2c), 4-methyl-2-(trimethylsilyl)phenyl triflate (2d)] in the presence of PdCl(2)(PPh(3))(2) in acetonitrile at ambient temperature to yield anellated 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene products 3a-r in moderate to excellent yields. The [2 + 2 + 2] cocyclotrimerization products from oxa- and azabicyclic alkenes can be applied for the synthesis of polyaromatics, substituted benzo[b]triphenylenes (8a-f), via a simple Lewis acid mediated deoxyaromatization in good yields. In addition the [2 + 2 + 2] products undergo retro Diels-Alder reaction readily, providing a new method for the synthesis of substituted phenanthrenes and for generating isobenzofurans. A plausible mechanism is proposed to account for the catalytic [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction.     

An approach to comparative analysis of chromatographic fingerprints for assuring the quality of botanical drugs

The present study was focused on developing the chemometric methods for analysis of the chromatographic fingerprint to control the quality of botanical drugs, which has gained attention in Asia and other countries. We developed a novel approach to generate a set of fingerprint features, called Fisher components (FCs) that were extracted from the chromatographic fingerprint. The method greatly reduces the dimensionality of the fingerprint vector, and the resulting FCs still retain most discriminatory information of the original fingerprint. Choosing an example of relevance to contemporary botanical drugs, we applied the FCs to a set of Shenmai injection samples. We successfully identified the manufacturers of the samples using two classifiers, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) based on the FCs. We also applied a similarity assessment together with the visual analysis using the FCs to exam the products from different manufacturers. We found that the lot-to-lot consistency of products can be accurately determined using the FCs. Finally, we demonstrated that the application of chemometric methods for chromatographic fingerprinting offers reliability to detect suspected fraud samples. In summary, we demonstrated that the presented approaches could be useful to determine the identity, consistency, and authenticity of Shenmai injection through chromatographic fingerprinting. The methods are equally applicable to other botanical drugs.     

Calculations on the octupolar molecules with enhanced two-photon absorption cross sections based on the Zn (II) and Cu (I) as centers

The equilibrium geometries, electronic structures, as well as one- and two-photon absorption cross sections of a series of octupolar chromophores with Zn(2+) or Cu(+) as coordinate centers and 4,4'-bis(dibutylaminostyryl)-[2,2']-bis(bipyridyl) as ligands have been determined by using B3LYP/6-31G and ZINDO methods. These molecules are designed by controlled combination of two or three bipyridyl ligands with the metal centers. The results show that Zn(2+) is an effective template for the design of octupolar structures which enable it to form tetrahedral and octahedral coordinated complexes; while Cu(+) only exists in a tetrahedral coordinated complex, comparing the tetrahedral complex with Zn(2+) as the center with that of Cu(+) as the center, it is found that the complex with the Cu(+) center is a better two-photon absorption material than the former as far as the transparency/nonlinearity is concerned. Furthermore, for the same metal center of Zn(2+), both one- and two-photon absorptions of the tetrahedral complex are redshifted relative to those of the octahedral complex, is attributed to the spiroconjugation effect in the tetrahedral complex. Our theoretical findings are consistent with recent experimental observations and provide an important foundation for the design of improved transparency-nonlinearity two-photon absorption materials.

Reaction dynamics of Cl+CH3SH: rotational and vibrational distributions of HCl probed with time-resolved Fourier-transform spectroscopy

Rotationally resolved infrared emission spectra of HCl(v=1-3) in the reaction of Cl+CH3SH, initiated with radiation from a laser at 308 nm, are detected with a step-scan Fourier-transform spectrometer. Observed rotational temperature of HCl(v=1-3) decreases with duration of reaction due to collisional quenching; a short extrapolation to time zero based on data in the range 0.25-4.25 micros yields a nascent rotational temperature of 1150+/-80 K. The rotational energy averaged for HCl(v=1-3) is 8.2+/-0.9 kJ mol(-1), yielding a fraction of available energy going into rotation of HCl, fr=0.10+/-0.01, nearly identical to that of the reaction Cl+H(2)S. Observed temporal profiles of the vibrational population of HCl(v=1-3) are fitted with a kinetic model of formation and quenching of HCl(v=1-3) to yield a branching ratio (68+/-5):(25+/-4):(7+/-1) for formation of HCl(v=1):(v=2):(v=3) from the title reaction and its thermal rate coefficient k(2a)=(2.9+/-0.7)x10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1). Considering possible estimates of the vibrational population of HCl(v=0) based on various surprisal analyses, we report an average vibrational energy 36+/-6 kJ mol(-1) for HCl. The fraction of available energy going into vibration of HCl is f(v)=0.45+/-0.08, significantly greater than a value fv=0.33+/-0.06 determined previously for Cl+H2S. Reaction dynamics of Cl+H(2)S and Cl+CH3SH are compared; the adduct CH3S(Cl)H is likely more transitory than the adduct H(2)SCl.     

Vinyl sulfones in solid-phase synthesis: preparation of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoindole derivatives

The preparation of functionalized 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoindole via a traceless solid-phase sulfone linker strategy is described. Thermolytic extrusion of SO(2) from polymer-bound 3-(phenylsulfonyl)-3-sulfolene (7) generated polymer-bound 2-(phenylsulfonyl)-1,3-butadiene (9) in situ which underwent Diels--Alder cycloaddition with various dienophiles to furnish vinyl sulfone resins 10-14. To complete a traceless linker cleavage strategy, (p-tolysulfonyl)methyl isocyanide or ethyl isocyanoacetate was employed to react with the vinyl sulfone moiety to liberate functionalized 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoindole products from the resin. Using this chemistry, nine tetrahydroisoindole derivatives (6, 15-22) were prepared in 32-41% overall yields from polystyrene/divinylbenzene sulfinate 1.
