Comparison between the symmetry-correlation examination and the perturbation method

A comparison between the construction of symmetry-correlation diagrams and the perturbation method for studying chemical reactions is carried out. The perturbation method consists of decomposing the system Hamiltonian H into a sum, H = H₀ + H′. Various symmetry correlation schemes appearing in the literature may be explained by the nonuniqueness of the decomposition scheme. All symmetry selection rules may be viewed as the varieties. By examining the symmetry-correlation diagrams, processes under investigation may be called “forbidden” or “allowed,” depending on the topological feature. Of particular importance is the topology associated with the “avoided crossing.” By making the comparison, we can establish the correspondence of the two methods and conclude that the perturbation order furnishes the origin of the “forbiddenness” of a process.     

Avoided crossing and intermediate states in certain photochemical reactions

An attempt to classify various types of avoided surface crossings originally discussed by Salem and co-workers is presented. From the present scheme, an order-of-forbiddenness criterion regarding reactivity is established from a consideration of electron and orbital counting. Since the new classification is qualitatively related to the energy gap created in the avoided crossing, the classification appears to be more systematic and informative. Energy transfer processes involved in electronically excited states may also be rationalized by such an application. Three major mechanistic types are distinguished: concerted two-electron process, concerted one-electron process, and stepwise one-electron process involving an ionic-pair intermediate.     

Application of AM SURE™ resin to solid-phase peptide synthesis

A core-shell structure was found in AM SURE™ resin, in which most amino groups were located at the skin layer. The AM SURE™ resin revealed better synthetic efficiency, compared to the noncore-shell type resin in the synthesis of the fragment 65-74 of acyl carrier protein, the fragment 27-35 of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) fusion inhibitor (T-20) and the Jung-Redemann 10-mer.     

Synthesis of four diastereomeric 3,5-dialkoxy-2,4-dimethylalkanals by a simple extension of the non-aldol aldol process to bis(propionates)

[formula: see text] The synthesis of all four diastereomers of bis(propionates), 3,5-dialkoxy-2,4-dimethylalkanals, by non-aldol aldol chemistry is described. The epoxy alcohols (3, 4) were converted into the mesylates (9, 11) which were cleanly rearranged to the desired 3,5-bis(oxygenated)-2,4-dimethylalkanals (10, 12) in high yield. The epoxy mesylates (13, 16) gave the desired products (14, 17) in good yield on treatment with TMSOTf and a hindered base.     

The photoelectron spectrum of HCP and comments on the first photoelectron band of HCN

The photoelectron spectrum of HCP has been obtained, Ionization potentials are found at 10.79 ± 0.01 eV (X² Π) and 12.86 ± 0.01 eV (A ² Σ). By comparison with HCP, a new interpretation of the first photoelectron band of HCN has been proposed which involves a Renner-Teller interaction in the Σ⁺ vibronic states of the molecular ion.     

Construction of a 2,6-difunctionalized 2-methyl-2H-1-benzopyran library by using a solid-phase synthesis protocol

[reaction: see text] A library containing 1200 analogues of 2,6-difunctionalized 2-methyl-2H-1-benzopyran was constructed by using a solid-phase synthesis protocol. Polymer-bound 6-amido-, 6-sulfonamido-, and 6-uredo-functionalized 2-hydroxymethyl-2-methylbenzopyrans 10 were prepared as part of a first-generation diversification step by employing reactions of respective acid halides, sulfonyl chlorides, and isocyanates with the amine precursor 7. Transformations of the resin-bound intermediates 10 by reactions with alkyl and acid halides were then used to produce a diverse series of 2,6-difunctionalized 2-methyl-2H-1-benzopyran analogues 12 and 14.

A trinickel dipyridylamido complex with metal-metal bonding interaction: prelude to polynickel molecular wires and devices?

The molecule Ni(3)(dpa)(4)Cl(2) (1) can be oxidized by AgPF(6) to give crystalline Ni(3)(dpa)(4)(PF(6))(3) (2) (dpa is the anion of di(2-pyridyl)amine). This reversible oxidation occurs at a potential of 0.908 V vs Ag/AgCl electrochemically. The X-ray structure of 2 shows that the oxidation causes a major structural change (even though it is reversible), namely, a contraction of the Ni-Ni distances from ca. 2.43 A to 2.284[1] A. In addition, the electronic structure changes so that from four unpaired electrons in 1 there is only one in 2. From these remarkable results, it is inferred that while 1, and all higher homologues with 5, 7, 9,... nickel atoms are poor electronic conductors, the cations obtainable from them may be much better ones. This in turn means that by controlling the oxidation state electrochemically, these molecules may be able to function as nanoscale diodes.     

Characterization of polystyrene and polyisoprene by normal-phase temperature gradient interaction chromatography

Temperature gradient interaction chromatography (TGIC) is applied to the characterization of polyisoprene (PI) and polystyrene (PS) using normal-phase (NP) stationary phase--bare silica or diol bonded silica. Tetrahydrofuran-isooctane mixtures are used as a mobile phase. PI and linear and star shaped PS samples are successfully fractionated in terms of the molecular mass with a high resolution comparable to that of reversed-phase (RP) HPLC. Temperature dependence of the retention shows that the enthalpy of adsorption of PS to the stationary phase is exothermic. In addition, some characteristic features of the NP-TGIC system relative to those of RP-TGIC are presented, which include a high sensitivity on the polar end group and the simultaneous size-exclusion chromatographic and TGIC characterization of PS and PI mixtures.
