Quantum-chemical approach to the elementary steps of plasma etching

We derive for the first time a mechanism of reactive plasma etching in the system Si/F by the quantum-chemical approach. SiF₂-like species at the surface play an important role. SiF₃ surface complexes also occur. The final etching product SiF₄ is formed with high probability in the gas phase.     

BINAS - synthesis and use of a new ligand for propylene hydroformylation

BINAS is a new, very efficient ligand for propylene hydroformylation. BINAS is made by the sulfonation of NAPHOS. Different synthetic routes to NAPHOS are discussed. A new two step synthesis starting from 2,2′-bis(bromomethyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl is described.     

Intramolekulare Cyclisierung von Aminofluorsilanen

Aminofluorosilanes react with lithiated amines undergoing LiF-elimination and substitution (1). The acyclic silicon-nitrogen-compound2 is isolated in the reaction with a difluorosilane after renewed lithiation.2 is cyclisated in the reaction with butyllithium by butane- and LiF-elimination (3). Aminofluorosilanes with bulky (4) or mesomeric stabilized (5) ligands form stable lithioaminofluorosilanes, which react with fluorosilanes giving substitution products (6, 7).6 and7 react with the lithium salt oftert-butylamin in a molar ratio of 12 to give8 and9 by intramolecular cyclisation.—The mass,¹H and¹⁹F nmr spectra of the compounds are reported.     

Synthesis of Naturally Occurring Pyrazine and Imidazole Alkaloids from Botryllus LeachiRID=”a”ID=”a”?Dedicated to Prof. G. M?rkl on the occasion of his 75th birthday

The synthesis of the naturally occurring and biologically active alkaloids 1 and 2, first isolated from the red ascidian Botryllus leachi by Duran et al. [1], is described and the structure proposed for Botryllazine B (1) is confirmed. The analytical data for 2-(p-hydroxybenzoyl)-4-(p-hydroxyphenyl)imidazole (2) are discussed and compared with the literature. With special emphasis of ¹H NMR data the tautomerism of aroylimidazolemethanones is described.     

Syntheses of (+)-(S,S)-(cis-6-Methyltetrahydropyran-2-yl)acetic acid and of (−)-(R,R)-Didesoxy-pyrenophorine Using a New d5-Reagent. Preliminary communication

The Li/K-derivative 6 is used to synthesize the title compounds ( 3a and 4a ) in enantiomerically pure form from (?)-(S)-propylene epoxide. The C,C bond forming key step leading to the hydroxyketone 7 is followed by cyclization (→, 8 ), Beckmann cleavage (→ 9b ) and hydrolysis to 3a (recently isolated from civet). Base treatment of 3a opens the ring ( 10 ) to give the hydroxyacid 1 which is cyclized to the macrolide 4a . The synthetic usefulness of the highly nucleophilic doubly reduced dienone system 6 as d⁵-reagent (see synthons 2) is thus demonstirated.     

Nucleotide. XV. Synthese und Eigenschaften von 2′-O-t-Butyldimethylsilyl-5′-O-monomethoxytritylribonucleosid-3′-phosphotriestern,Ausgangssubstanzen für Oligonucleotid-Synthesen

Nucleotides. XV. Synthesis and Properties of 2′O-t-Butyldimethylsilyl-5′-O-monomethoxytritylribonucleoside-3′-phosphotriesters, Starting Materials for Oligonucleotide Syntheses The syntheses of two types of fully blocked ribonucleoside 3′-phosphotriesters 6–14 have been achieved in excellent yields from 2′-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl-5′-O-monomethoxytrityl-ribonucleosides 1–5 by phosphorylation with 2-chloro- and 2,5-dichlorophenylphosphorodichloridate respectively and subsequent treatment by cyanoethanol to 6 , 8 , 10 , 12 and 14 and by p-nitrophenylethanol to 7 , 9 , 11 and 13 . These phosphotriesters are valuable starting materials for oligonucleotide syntheses due to the fact that the corresponding phosphotriesters 15–23 with free HO? C(5′) could be obtained by detritylation and the 3′-phosphodiester triethylammonium salts 24–32 by deblocking of the cyanoethyl and the 2,5-dichlorophenyl group respectively. All newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by UV.-and NMR.-spectra as well as C, H, N elementary analyses.     

A case of highly diastereoselective addition to unsymmetrical ketones: lk-addition of (2-alkenyl)triphenoxytitanium derivatives

(2-Butenyl)-, (4-methyl-2-pentenyl)-, and (2-heptenyl)triphenoxytitanium ( 2a – c ) add to dialkyl, alkyl aryl-, and alkinyl aryl ketones to give high yields of tertiary homoallylic alcohols ( 5 – 12 ), which are diastereomerically enriched up to 98%. Configurational assignment by degradation of two of the products to olefins 15 and 18 - through β-hydroxy acids 13 and 16 and β-lactones 14 and 17 - leads to the proposal of a general mechanism and of a specification of the relative topicity lk of the process (Scheme 5). The allylic Ti-compounds 2 can serve as d²-reagents (see the d²-synthon II and the aldol-type structures 1 ).     

A convenient synthesis of 4-aminoaryl substituted cyclic imides

An efficient one-step synthesis of 4-nitro-N-aryl substituted glutarimides, succinimides and maleimides in polyphosphoric acid is described together with the subsequent reduction to the corresponding anilines. The scope and limitation of this cyclocondensation are presented.     

Farbe und Konstitution bei anorganischen Feststoffen, 12. Mitt.: Die Lichtabsorption des zweiwertigen Kobalts in oxidischen Koordinationsgittern vom Ilmenittyp

Zusammenfassung Die Systeme Co _x Mg _1-x TiO₃ (I) und Co _x Cd _1-x TiO₃ (II) wurden röntgenographisch und spektralphotometrisch untersucht. I stellt eine lückenlose Mischkristallreihe dar. Mit wachsendemx nehmen bei I die Gitterkonstantena ₀undc ₀geringfügig zu und die drei Hauptabsorptionsbanden verschieben sich ein wenig in Richtung IR. In II liegt keine lückenlose Mischkristallreihe vor. Sowohl röntgenographisch als auch spektralphotometrisch wurde für die an CoTiO₃ gesättigte CdTiO₃-Phase die Zusammensetzung Co_0,3Cd_0,7TiO₃ (II a) und für die an CdTiO₃ gesättigte CoTiO₃-Phase die Zusammensetzung Co_0,8Cd_0,2TiO₃ (II b) gefunden.Beim Übergang III (x=0,1) wird eine beträchtliche IR-Verschiebung beobachtet. Die IR-Verschiebung ist die Folge der Gitteraufweitung bei der Substitution von Mg²⁺ durch Cd²⁺. Hierbei nimmt derRacah-Parameter geringfügig zu infolge Verminderung der covalenten Anteile der Bindung Co-O.

The systems Co _x Mg _1-x TiO₃ (I) and Co _x Cd _1-x TiO₃ (II) had been investigated spectrophotometrically and by X-ray diffraction. I represents mixed crystals without any miscibility gap. An increase ofx causes a small enhancement of the lattice unitsa ₀andc ₀of I and the three main absorption bands will be shifted slightly towards IR. II are mixed crystals with a broad miscibility gap. Spectrophotometrically and by X-ray diffraction it could be found that the CdTiO₃-phase saturated with CoTiO₃ and the CoTiO₃-phase saturated with CdTiO₃ have the compositions Co_0,3Cd_0,7TiO₃ (II a) and Co_0,8Cd_0,2TiO₃ (II b), respectively. The transition III (x=0,1) produces a considerable shift of the main absorption bands towards IR as a consequence of the expansion of the lattice caused by the substitution of Cd²⁺ for Mg²⁺. This shift is accompanied by a small increase of theRacah-Parameter owing to a decrease of covalency of the bonding Co-O.
