Untersuchungen über ternäre Chalkogenide. XXIV. Zur Struktur des TlGaSe2

On Ternary Chalcogenides. XXIV. The Structure of TlGaSe₂ TlGaSe₂ is monoclinic with a = 10.772(3), b = 10.771(5), c = 15.636(8) Å, ß = 100.6(3)°, Z = 16, space group Cc. The refinement yielded an R value of 0.082 for 1366 unique observed reflections (MoKα). The compound crystallizes with a layer structure with two anion layers perpendicular to c* in the unit cell. The structural motive of the layers are large corner-linked Ga₄Se₁₀- tetraeder consisting of four corner-linked GaSe₄ tetrahedra. Two adjacent layers are turned relative to each other by 90°. They are kept together by Tl¹⁺ ions, which are situated on straight lines parallel to the edges of the Ga₄Se₁₀ groups. They are surrounded by six selenium atoms forming trigonal-prismatic TlSe₆ polyhedra. 4₂ screw-axes within the layers are the reason for a strongly pronounced pseudo tetragonal symmetry. Different possibilities of stacking cause a onedimensional disorder along the c* direction. The relations between the TlGaSe₂ type and the TlSe type and also the high-pressure modifications of some compounds with the TlGaSe₂ structure are discussed.     

Enantioselektive Synthese von Allyl-, Propargyl- und 4-En-2-inyl-aminen durch 1,2-Addition von Organocer-Reagenzien an chirale Aldimine

Enantioselective Synthesis of Allyl-, Propargyl-, and 4-En-2-ynyl-amines via 1,2-Addition of Organocerium Reagents to Chiral Aldehyde Imines (E)- and (Z)-Allyl-, propargyl-, and 4-en-2-ynyl-amines 5 and 14 , useful bifunctional building blocks and of pharmaceutical interest, are synthesized in high enantiomeric purity (e.e. ≥ 97%). Key step is the diastereoselective 1,2-addition (d.e. 86 to ≥ 98%) of organocerium reagents to chiral α,β-unsaturated aldehyde imines 3 or 8 to produce adduct amines 4 and 9 (Schemes 1 and 4, resp.). The propargylamine 9 is a substrate for Pd-catalyzed coupling with alkenyl halides to produce the enynylamine 11a and the thienyl-substituted alkynylamine 11b . The chiral auxiliary (S,S)- 2 is removed from 4 and 11 in 3 steps affording the title compounds 5 and 14 . Diastereoisomer enrichment of the hydrochloride of 6 by crystallization is possible.     

The phenolic oxidation of a β-methylchalcone

The phenolic oxidation of 2',4-dihydroxy-4'-methoxy-β-methylchalcone using alkaline potassium ferricyanide gives an aurone rather than an isoflavone. This result is discussed in the context of current theories regarding the biosynthesis of flavonoid and isoflavonoid compounds.     

Beitrag zur Analyse von Stibin

Zusammenfassung Es wird ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Stibin beschrieben, das sich sowohl zur Analyse von SbH₃ in organischen Lösungsmitteln als auch zur Bestimmung von flüssigem oder festem SbH₃ eignet. Hierbei wird das Stibin mit überschüssigem Brom zu Sb^V oxydiert, danach mit SO₂ zu Sb^III reduziert und dieses oxydimetrisch mit Jod oder Bromat titriert.

Summary A method is proposed for the determination of stibine, applicable to its solutions in organic solvents and also to the solvent-free liquid or solid substance. The procedure involves oxidation of SbH₃ with an excess of bromine to Sb^V, reduction to Sb^III with SO₂, and oxidimetric titration of the trivalent antimony with iodine or bromate.

Cover Picture

The cover picture shows a model of the "progenitor-TADDOLs" in front of a panorama of the Fünffingersstocks and the Wenden Glacier in the Titlisgebiet (Switzerland). The model is flanked by a stylized view of the general mechanistic model for the preferred stereochemical pathway of the Ti-TADDOLate-catalyzed reaction of chelating substrates (left) and a blackboard (right) showing formulae of compounds that can be prepared with high enantioselectivity by nucleophilic addition in the presence of titanium TADDOLates. From TADDOL, introduced in 1982, a genuine auxiliary system for the "introduction of chirality" (not only by reaction) has been developed, which, in the final sprint against the competition has a good chance of securing a place on the winning podium. The photograph of the mountain landscape was taken by Dr. J. Frackenpohl, the cover picture was generated by one of the authors (A.H.) of the comprehensive review of TADDOLs in this issue (p. 92 ff.) with the help of the program Povray.

Der “thermo-stat” — eine ergänzung der verfahren zur bestimmung katalytisch wirksamer substanzen

The “Thermo-Stat” — a new device for the determination of catalyticaily active substancesA device for the determination of catalytically active substances, called a “ThermoStat”, is described. An additional heater is used to keep constant an arbitrarily preset temperature gradient between the reaction mixture and a cooling coil. Any heat produced by the catalysed reaction induces a deviation from the preset parameter and thus cuts out the additional heater. These breaks are plotted versus time by an integrating recorder. The slope of the reaction curve obtained is a measure of the concentration of the catalyst. As examples, determinations of copper in the range 0.1–2.0μg and molybdenum in the range 5–50 μg are discussed.     

Beiträge zur Chemie der Pyrrolpigmente, 70. Mitt.: Zum aktiven Transport mit tripyrrinoiden Liganden

The tripyrrin carboxylic acid6 exhibits a pronounced efficiency for carrier mediated proton driven secondary active transport (counter transport) for a series of toxic or valuable cations in a bulk chloroform membrane. In case of Zn⁺⁺ ions the mechanism including complete concentration profiles forNerst diffusion layers and bulk phase have been established. This compound might be used for detoxification or enrichment of precious metals using membrane separation systems.

Die Fehlordnung des Natriumazides und deren Einfluß auf die thermische Zersetzung, 4. Mitt.: Über die Programmierung von Zersetzungsreaktionen mit Hilfe von Korngrößenverteilungen

It is shown that in the case of thermal decomposition of sodium azide the overall kinetics can be predicted by defined particle size of the decomposed sodium azide crystals. This is always the case if the rate constant is a function of the particle size. Hence this special example can be generalized for similar decomposition reactions. It is necessary that the particles decompose independently which could be proved experimentally with sodium azide. If for this reason we state for true that the pressure/time-function of each particle size add together it is possible to set up a formula for the pressure/time-function of any particle size distribution. With the pressure/time function holding for sodium azide of uniform particle size, the total function for a Gauß distribution can be calculated exactly. Moreover, the trivial case of one single particle size and the case of two different particle sizes are discussed. Furthermore an approximation method for any arbitrary pressure/time-functions and distribution by means of “Schwerpunktdeutung” are discussed which can be carried out graphically as well as numerically. The numerical approximation is illustrated by an example. Pressure/time-functions then loose their characteristic form because of their dependence on the particle size distributions under consideration. In this case, reaction mechanism cannot be derived from pressure/time functions.
