Chloridionenübergänge in Phenylphosphoroxychlorid, 1. Mitt.: Spektrophotometrische Untersuchungen an Eisen (III)-chlorid-Lösungen

Zusammenfassung FeCl₃ liegt in PhPOCl₂ als roter solvatisierter Komplex, in Gegenwart von polaren Chloriden als gelbes [FeCl₄]^–-Ion vor. BCl₃, SnCl₄, TiCl₄, PCl₅ und wahrscheinlich auch HgCl₂ und SbCl₃ geben an FeCl₃ je 1 Chloridion ab, ZnCl₂ gibt beide Chloridionen und AlCl₃ zwei Chloridionen fast vollständig und ein drittes in geringem Umfang ab. Die Donorstärke nimmt in der Reihe KClEt₄NCl>1/2 AlCl₃>-TiCl₄>PCl₅>1/2 ZnCl₂>BCl₃ SnCl₄[AlCl]⁺⁺>HgCl₂>SbCl₃ ab. Als Chloridionenakzeptor ist nur SbCl₅ dem FeCl₃ ebenbürtig, die oben genannten Chloride sind wesentlich schwächere Akzeptoren.Mit 4 AbbildungenHerrn Professor Dr.L. F. Audrieth zum 60.

Aggregation-free and high stability core–shell polymer nanoparticles with high fullerene loading capacity,variable fullerene type,and compatibility towards biological conditions

Fullerenes have unique structural and electronic properties that make them attractive candidates for diagnostic, therapeutic, and theranostic applications. However, their poor water solubility remains a limiting factor in realizing their full biomedical potential. Here, we present an approach based on a combination of supramolecular and covalent chemistry to access well-defined fullerene-containing polymer nanoparticles with a core–shell structure. In this approach, solvophobic forces and aromatic interactions first come into play to afford a micellar structure with a poly(ethylene glycol) shell and a corannulene-based fullerene-rich core. Covalent stabilization of the supramolecular assembly then affords core-crosslinked polymer nanoparticles. The shell makes these nanoparticles biocompatible and allows them to be dried to a solid and redispersed in water without inducing interparticle aggregation. The core allows a high content of different fullerene types to be encapsulated. Finally, covalent stabilization endows nanostructures with stability against changing environmental conditions.

A polymer nanoparticle approach to biorelevant and robust fullerene nanoparticles is presented.     

Catalytic, asymmetric synthesis of α,α-disubstituted amino acids

Copper(salen) complex 1 has been found to catalyse the asymmetric alkylation of enolates derived from a variety of amino acids. There is a clear relationship between the size of the side chain in the substrate and the enantioselectivity of the process, so that the enantioselectivity decreases in the order alanine>aminobutyric acid>allylglycine>leucine>phenylalanine>valine. A transition state model which accounts for the influence of the size of the side chain on the enantioselectivity of the reactions is presented.     

1-(Organosulfonyloxy)-3(1H)-1,2-benziodoxoles: Preparation and Reactions with Alkynyltrimethylsilanes

Organosulfonyloxy derivatives of 1,2-benziodoxol-3(1H)-one (3a-c) and 3,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-3(1H)-1,2-benziodoxole (5a-c) can be prepared in high yield by the reaction of 1-hydroxybenziodoxoles 1 or 4 and the corresponding sulfonic acids or Me(3)SiOTf in the form of stable, but moderately hygroscopic, microcrystalline solids. Reaction of the triflate derivatives 3a and 5a with alkynyltrimethylsilanes affords either alkynyliodonium triflates 6, or (E)-beta-(trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy)alkenyliodonium triflates 7, while the same reaction in the presence of pyridine selectively gives the respective 1-alkynylbenziodoxoles 8 and 9 in 82-90% yield.     

Über die Extrahierbarkeit des Wolfram(VI)-rhodanids

Zusammenfassung Die Anwendbarkeit des Wolfram(VI)-komplexes mit Rhodanid für die analytische Praxis wurde untersucht; durch seine Löslichkeit in organischen Lösungsmitteln eignet sich der Komplex gut zur Trennung von anderen Elementen.Unter Zuhilfenahme des radioaktiven Wolframisotopes¹⁸⁵W konnten die optimalen Extraktionsbedingungen, wie Säure- und Rhodanidkonzentration, rasch ermittelt werden. Bei der Untersuchung verschiedener organischer Lösungsmittel zeigte Amylalkohol sowohl in reiner Form als auch in Mischungen mit Chloroform die besten Extraktionseigenschaften.Da der Komplex zu den stärksten des Wolframs gehört, stören bei der Durchführung von Analysen nur wenige Anionen, am meisten Fluorid. Von den Kationen werden nach Reduktion des Eisens, wozu Ascorbinsäure empfohlen wird, nur wenige andere mitextrahiert; am störendsten wirkt Molybdän, das mitausgeschüttelt wird und anschließend entfernt werden muß. Zur Bestimmung des Wolframs eignet sich dann am besten die Hydrochinonmethode.

Summary A study was made of the use of tungsten(VI) complex with thiocyanate in analytical practice. Because of its solubility in organic liquids the complex is well suited for separation from other elements.By using the radioactive isotope¹⁸⁵W, the optimal extraction conditions, such as the acid- and thiocyanate concentration, could be rapidly determined. When various organic solvents were tried, it was found that amyl alcohol, either by itself or mixed with chloroform, had the best extraction characteristics.Since the complex is one of the most stable formed by tungsten, only a few anions interfere in the analysis; fluoride causes the most trouble. Among the cations, only a few interfere after the iron has been reduced (ascorbic acid is recommended for this purpose). The greatest interference comes from molybdenum, which is co-extracted and has to be removed subsequently. The hydroquinone method is then the best procedure for determining the tungsten.

Résumé On a cherché à appliquer le complexe tungstène-VI-thiocyanate à l'analyse. Grâce à sa solubilité dans les solvants organiques, le complexe se prête bien à la séparation d'avec les autres éléments.Au moyen de l'isotope radioactif du tungstène¹⁸⁵W, on a pu trouver rapidement les conditions optimales d'extraction, ainsi que la concentration en acide et en thiocyanate. Après essai de divers agents de dissolution organiques, l'alcool amylique a montré les meilleures propriétés extractives, aussi bien sous sa forme pure qu'en mélange avec le chloroforme.Etant donné que le complexe est l'un des plus robustes du tungstène, seuls quelques anions gênent pour effectuer les analyses, et surtout les fluorures. Parmi les cations, après réduction du fer pour laquelle l'acide ascorbique est recommandé, seuls quelques autres sont extraits avec lui; le molybdène présente l'action la plus gênante, il doit être masqué et séparé complètement. Pour le dosage du tungstène, la méthode à l'hydroquinone convient alors le mieux.

     

Tröger's base scaffold in racemic and chiral fashion as a spacer for bisdistamycin formation. Synthesis and DNA binding study

‘Head-to-head’ oligo-N-methylpyrrole peptide dimers linked by a methano[1,5]diazocin scaffold are presented in racemic as well as chiral fashion. Their DNA binding activities were assayed on calf thymus DNA, poly(dA-dT)₂, and poly(dC-dG)₂ by NMR and ECD spectroscopies, and fluorescence probe displacement assay. The presented dimers prefer AT sequences, but show higher affinity to poly(dC-dG)₂ than distamycin A. The (4R,9R) configuration of methanodiazocin bridge was found to be better suited for interaction with ct-DNA and poly(dA-dT)₂ than (4S,9S) configuration.     

Lösungsmitteleinfluß auf das Redoxverhalten von Bistriphenylphosphinquecksilber(II)-perchlorat

The influence of solvents on the redox behaviour of bistriphenylphosphinomercury perchlorate has been investigated by polarographic, voltammetric and potentiometric methods. The electrode process was found to be reversible in acetonitrile, propylene carbonate, N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide. An irreversible process was observed in nitromethane employing the dropping mercury electrode as well as in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone employing the rotating platinum electrode. Half wave potentials and diffusion coefficients have been measured. A linear relationship between theE _1/2 and the donor number (DN) of the solvent has been found for the reversible electrode reactions. Ligand replacement occurs in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone.

Spin-transition behaviour of transition metal complexes with 2,6-bis-(benzimidazol-2′-yl)-pyridine induced by deprotonation of the complex

Summary 2,6-bis-(Benzimidazol-2-yl)-pyridine (bzimpy = H₂ L) acts as a bidentate ligand when combining with transition metal ions. The complexes [M(bzimpy)₂](ClO₄)₂ (M = Fe²⁺, Mn²⁺, Zn²⁺, Co²⁺, and Ni²⁺) were obtained as solids. The protonation constants (logK) for the ligand and the complexes were evaluated in 30:70 (v/v) H₂O:EtOH at 293 K and at constant ionic strength of 0.12M KCl. Coordination of the ligand to the metal ions leads to an increase of acidity of the imino-hydrogen of the benzimidazole group of the ligand as a function of the complex stability. Deprotonation leads to a spin-state transition (intermediate spin-state low-spin) of the iron(II)-complex, followed by a shift of the metal-to-ligandcharge transfer band (MLCT) to lower energies (_max=563 to 580 nm). The d-d absorption bands are found to shift to higher energies and the low-spin isomer is favoured at room temperature. An opposite shift of theMLCT band (_max=563 to 557 nm) is observed when HClO₄ is added to the complex solution, rendering the high-spin state of the complex more favourable.On leave from the Chemistry Department, Jahangirnagar University, Dhaka, Bangladesh
