Enantioselective Addition of Phenylacetylene to Aldehydes Catalyzed by Polymer-Supported Sulfonamide

Enantioselective formation of C-C bonds is an area of intense research. Among them, the asymmetric addition of alkynyl reagents to aldehydes is very useful for the synthesis of chiral secondary propargyl alcohols.[1] Recently, many significant homogeneous chiral ligands have been disclosed,[2,3] but very few efficient heterogeneous catalysts have been reported. Herein, we report our research results in the asymmetric addition of phenylacetylene to aldehydes catalyzed by polymer-supported chiral sulfonamide.     

Theoretical Study on the Antioxidant Activity of Curcumin

The computational results for curcumin at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level show that the enol form of curcumin is more stable than the diketo form because of an intramolecular hydrogen bond, which extends the conjugation effect in the enol chain, formed in the enol structure. Cis-diketone form can not be obtained, presumably due to the strong repulsion between the carbonyl dipoles aligned in parallel. According to the phenolic O-H bond dissociation enthalpy, curcumin in its most stable form can be suggested to be a relatively good antioxidant. In order to avoid overcoming H-bond interaction and to improve the antioxidant activity of curcumin, a catechol moiety was incorporated into curcumin for designing a novel antioxidant. It is found that the designed molecule is much more efficient to scavenge radical than curcumin, comparable to vitamin E. Moreover, the ionization potential of the designed molecule is similar to that of curcumin, indicating that the designed molecule can not display the prooxidant effect.

Theoretical Study of the Low-Lying Excited States of Butoxy Radicals and Non-Radiative Decay Routes

The potential energy surfaces for the butoxy radical dissociation into R·＋O on the six low-lying electronic states have been determined with the combined CASSCF and MR-CI methods. The isomerization reactions between the different conformers of 1- and 2-butoxy radicals at the X and B states have been also investigated with the MP2, B3LYP, and CASSCF methods. The non-radiative decay mechanisms of butoxy radicals at the B state have been characterized with the computed potential energy surfaces and intersections. Supported by recent LIF experimental results, it was predicted that the t-butoxy radical would predissociate via the B/C intersection. As to 1- and 2-butoxy radicals, the relative energies of the transition states for the isomerization reactions between conformers at the B state are much lower than those of the B/C intersections, resulting in the predominance of the isomerization in the decay of the B state for 1- and 2-butoxy radicals.     

The solid state reactions of o-aminobenzoic acid with Zn(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Mn(Ⅱ) acetate hydrate at room temperature

The solid-solid state reactions of o-aminobenzoic acid with Zn(OAc)2.2H2O, Cu(OAc)2 .H2O, Ni(OAc)2.4H2O and Mn(OAc)2.4H2O result in the formation of corresponding complexes M(OAB)2 (M = Zn(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Mn(IⅡ)). XRD, IR and elemental analysis methods have been used to characterize the solid products. The activation energies of these reactions, which are calculated from the kinetic data obtained by means of the isothermal electrical conductivity measurement method, have been found to increase in the order: Cu(OAc)2.H2O(37.7 kJ.mol-1)~Mn(OAc)2.4H2O (39.7kJ.mol-1) < Zn(OAc)2.2H2O (56.3 kJ.mol-1) < Ni(OAc)2.4H2O (85.2 kJ.mol-1). The trend is related to their crystal structures.

An organic-inorganic compound [Cu(2,2'-bpy)2][{Cu(2,2'-bpy)2}2W12O4o(H2)]·4H2O (Mr = 4048.00) was prepared from the hydrothermal reaction of Na2WO4·2H2O, CuCl2·2H2O,2,2'-bipyridine (2,2'-bpy) and H2O at 160 ℃ for 4 days. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n with a = 18.9196(8), b = 20.4212(8), c = 21.8129(9)(A), β=96.992(3)°, V= 8365.0(6) (A)3, Dc= 3.214 g/cm3, Z = 4,μ(MoKα) = 17.269 mm-1 and F(000) = 7324.Of the 119837 total reflections, 17315 were unique (Rint = 0.0489). The final R = 0.0385 and wR =0.0770 for 11142 observed reflections with I ＞ 2σ(I). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals that the structure is composed of [{Cu(2,2'-bpy)2}2W12O40(H2)]2- anions, discrete [Cu(2,2'-bpy)2]2 cations and lattice water molecules, and the anion is made up of a {W12O40(H2)}6- α-Keggin core decorated with two {Cu(2,2'-bpy)2}2 groups through bridging oxygen atoms.
