Baker''''s yeast mediated reduction of substituted acenaphthenequinones: Regio-and enantioselective preparation of mono-hydroxyacenaphthenones

Baker's yeast mediated reduction of acenaphthenequinone within 4-10 h afforded mono-hydroxyacenaphthenone mainly with low enantioselectivity, the substrate and mono-hydroxyacenaphthenone product almost converted to dihydroxyacenaphthene after 48 h. By control of the reaction time and in the presence of DMF as co-solvent, the reduction of 6-substituted acenaphthenequinones under vigorous agitation afforded the corresponding 2-hydroxyacenaphthenones in 24-84% yields with 10-93% ee.     

Preparation and characterization of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)2-intercalated layered double hydroxides

trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ (TPPTS=tris(m-sulfonatophenyl)phosphine) has been intercalated into Zn-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) by the method of ion exchange. The structure, composition and thermal stability of the composite material have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared and ³¹P solid-state magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetry, and differential thermal analysis. The geometry of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ was fully optimized using the PM3 semiempirical molecular orbital method, and a schematic model for the intercalated species has been proposed. The thermal stability of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ is significantly enhanced by intercalation, which suggests that such materials may have prospective application as the basis of a supported catalyst system for the hydroformylation of higher olefins.     

How can enzymes be so efficient?

Dudley Williams and his colleagues discuss how ligands can gain binding energy to their receptors, and substrate transition states to their enzymes, by tightening the protein structures, with a decrease in their dynamic behaviour.     

Anionic templating: synthesis,structure, and characterization of novel three-dimensional mixed-metal oxychlorides Te(4)M(3)O(15).Cl (M = Nb(5+) or Ta(5+))

Two new three-dimensional oxychlorides are reported, Te(4)M(3)O(15).Cl (M = Nb(5+) or Ta(5+)). The isostructural materials were synthesized by chemical transport reactions utilizing TeO(2), M(2)O(5), and MCl(5) (M = Nb(5+) or Ta(5+)) as reagents. The compounds exhibit a three-dimensional cationic tunnel framework, with Cl(-) anions occupying the tunnels. Crystal data: monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 18.9944(7) A, b = 7.8314(3) A, c = 21.1658(8) A, beta = 116.6400(10) degrees, Z = 8 (T = 295 K).

An organic-phase optical phenol biosensor coupling enzymatic oxidation with chemical reduction

This paper presents a recycle amplification optical biosensor to monitor phenol in hydrophobic organic solvents. Tyrosinase was first immobilised by entrapping it in a copolymer membrane of poly(vinyl alcohol)-hydroxyethyl carboxymethylcellulose doped with octadecylsilica particles. The biosensor was then constructed by co-mixing small particles of the immobilised tyrosinase with the adduct of L-ascorbic acid-poly(vinyl alcohol) (AsA-PVA) in conjunction with an optical oxygen transducer. The biosensor was characterised by its amplifying response to phenol, stable biocatalytic activity of entrapped-tyrosinase, free of interference from o-quinone polymerisation, and large water buffer capacity in hydrophobic organic solvents. The working range of the biosensor to phenol was 0.08-40 mmol dm(-3) in the flow mode. The response times (95%) of the biosensor were 4-7 min for phenol. The operational lifetime was more than 40 assays and the shelf lifetime of the biosensor was longer than 3 months. The biosensor has been successfully applied to quantify the phenol contents in some commercial ointment samples.

Anomalies in the asymmetric hydroboration of olefins with the 11 adduct of (+)-α-pinene and BH3 · THF

The hydroboration of cis-2-butene and cis-3-hexene with pure diisopinocampheylborane (IPC₂BH) and monoisopinocampheylborane (IPCBH₂), both prepared from (+)-α-pinene, were studied. In contrast to IPC₂BH, which yielded R-(?)-2-butanol and R-(?)-3-hexanol in 98.4 and 94.5% optical purities, IPCBH₂ yielded S-(+)-2-butanol and S-(+)-3-hexanol in 23.6 and 19.7% optical purifies respectively. PMR examination of the methanolyzed products were utilized to establish the species present in the freshly prepared and aged $\text{1}\text{1}$ adduct from (+)-α-pinene and BH₃ · THF. The results confirm the interpretation previously advanced for the major differences realized in asymmetric hydroboration with the fresh and aged $\text{1}\text{1}$ adducts.
