Preparation of peptide-like bicyclic lactams via a sequential Ugi reaction--olefin metathesis approach

Bicyclic lactams, suitable for incorporation into conformationally restricted peptide mimics, can be synthesized by using olefinic starting materials for the Ugi multicomponent reaction, setting up an olefin metathesis reaction, that is easily carried out with the Grubbs catalyst. The influence of the different starting materials is evaluated. In addition, the utilization of chiral, nonracemic amines is described.     

Complex formation of isocytosine tautomers with PdII and PtII

Isocytosine (ICH) exists in solution as two major tautomers, the keto form with N1 carrying a proton (1a) and the keto form with N3 being protonated (1b). In water, 1a and 1b exist in equilibrium with almost equal amounts of both forms present. Reactions with a series of Pd(II) and Pt(II) am(m)ine species such as (dien)Pd(II), (dien)Pt(II), and trans-(NH(3))(2)Pt(II) reveal, however, a distinct preference of these metals for the N3 site, as determined by (1)H NMR spectroscopy. Individual species have been identified by the pD dependence of the ICH resonances. pK(a) values (calculated for H(2)O) for deprotonation of the individual tautomers complexes are 6.5 and 6.4 for the N3 linkage isomers of dienPd(II) and dienPt(II), respectively, as well as 6.2 and 6.0 for the N1 linkage isomers. The dimetalated species [(dienM)(2)(IC-N1,N3)](3+) (M = Pd(II) or Pt(II)) are insensitive over a wide range of pD. The crystal structure analysis of [(dien)Pd(ICH-N3)](NO(3))(2) is reported. Ab initio calculations have been performed for tautomer compounds of composition [(NH(3))(3)Pt(ICH)](2+), cis- and trans-[(NH(3))(2)PtCl(ICH)](+), as well as trans-[(NH(3))(2)Pt(ICH)(2)](2+). Without exception, N3 linkage isomers are more stable, in agreement with experimental findings. As to the reasons for this binding preference, an NBO (natural bond orbital) analysis for [(NH(3))(3)Pt(ICH-N3)](2+)strongly suggests that intramolecular hydrogen bonding between trans-positioned NH(3) ligands and the two exocyclic groups of the ICH is of prime importance. The calculations furthermore show a marked pyramidalization of the NH(2) group of ICH in the complex once the heterocyclic ligand forms a dihedral angle <90 degrees with the Pt coordination plane.     

Proton magnetic shielding and susceptibility effects in single crystals of ferrocene

The proton NMR in single crystals of ferrocene has been studied by multiple pulse techniques at room temperature. In crystals of natural shape with plane faces the angular dependence of the resonance frequency due to the anisotropy of the shielding and due to the bulk susceptibility was found to be of about equal size, making analysis of the data practically impossible. By using a single crystal sphere the shape dependent part of the susceptibility contribution could be eliminated. In addition, the resolution obtained by the multiple pulse technique is considerably higher for spheres than for non-spherical crystals. As the ferrocene molecules rotate rapidly about their fivefold axes at room temperature, the shielding tensor σ must be axially symmetric. Having this in mind, the data could be analyzed to yield both the shielding tensor with Δσ = σ₆ - σ_⊥ = ?6.5 ± 0.1 ppm, σ_iso = ?4.2 ± 0.5 ppm from a spherical sample of TMS and the anisotropy of the susceptibility Δ _x = 30 × 10^?6 cgs units.     

Evidence for N2N3N45 super coster kronig processes in metallic Nb,Mo, Ru and Rh

The 4p photoelectron spectra of metallic Nb, Mo, Ru and Rh have been recorded. By use of a deconvolution procedure it is shown that the 4p_{$\text{1}\text{2}$} spin-orbit component has a linewidth which significantly exceeds that of the 4p_{$\text{3}\text{2}$} component. This suggests that N₂N₃N₄₅ super Coster Kronig processes give a considerable contribution to the decay rata of the 4p_{$\text{1}\text{2}$} hole state.
