On triazoles XLIX. Synthesis of 5,6‐dihydrothiazolo[3,2‐b]‐[1,2,4]triazol‐2‐yl‐, 6,7‐dihydro‐5H‐[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b][1,3]thiazin‐2‐yl‐, and 5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro[1,2,4]triazolo[5,1‐b] [1,3]thiazepin‐2‐yl‐isoquinolinium salts

5′‐Mercapto‐1′H‐1,2,4‐triazol‐3′‐yl‐isoquinolinium salts (6) were synthesised by the reaction of ortho‐acyl phenylacetones (2) or the corresponding pyrylium salts (3) and 5‐amino‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazole‐3‐thione (5) . Treatment of thioles 6 withα,ω‐dibromoalkanes led to type 15, 16 and 17 isoquinolinium salts condensed with thiazole, thiazine and thiazepine rings. When 6 are reacted with dibromomethane (10) 11 type dimeric structures are obtained.     

Search on ruggedness of fast gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in pesticide residues analysis

In this study, suitability of fast gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) on a narrow-bore column with a programmed temperature vaporizer for the analysis of pesticide residues in non-fatty food was evaluated. The main objectives were ruggedness and stability of chromatographic system with regards to co-extractives injected. The chromatographic matrix induced response enhancement was found to be strongly dependent on the concentration of residues and is reaching up to 700% compared to the pesticides solutions in a neat solvent. However, the responses of pesticides in matrix-matched standards at different concentration levels do not significantly change during 130 injections. Response enhancement/or decrease is influenced by the sample preparation technique. External calibration with matrix-matched calibration standards should, therefore, provide results with good precision also at the concentration level of 0.005 mg kg(-1). Special attention is given to the performance of the chromatographic column and retention gap with regards to peak widths, peak tailing and different sample preparation methods. During approximately 460 matrix sample injections, the performance of the analytical column was acceptable. GC-MS set-up with 0.15 mm i.d. column can be successfully utilized for the pesticide residues analysis.     

Ethylenediaminetetraacetato-monoperoxo complexes of vanadium(V)

Summary The monoperoxo complexes, M₂[VO(HEDTA)(O₂)]· 4H₂O, where M is K⁺ or NH ₄ ⁺ and H₄EDTA is ethylene-diaminetetraacetic acid, were prepared and characterized by Raman and i.r. spectra in the solid state and in aqueous solution. The single crystal X-ray study revealed a pentagonal bipyramidal anion structure with a tetradentate HEDTA(3—) ligand. The decomposition of complexes in aqueous solution to blue vanadium(IV) complexes as end products proceeds via a nonperoxo complex of vanadium.     

Interannular communication in the radical anions of bis-cyclooctatetraene systems

[reaction: see text] The room-temperature potassium reduction of 1,2-bis-cyclooctatetraeneoxypropane yields two different regio-spin isomer anion radicals in equilibrium (COT-O-C(Me)HCH(2)CH(2)-O-COT(*)(-) = (*)(-)COT-O-C(Me)HCH(2)CH(2)-O-COT) that is shifted far to the right. The presence of the unreduced ring perturbs the spin density on the reduced ring. Addition of more electrons generates the diradical dianion ((*)(-)COT-O-C(Me)HCH(2)CH(2)-O-COT(*)(-)), and the anion radical on the secondary side splits the degeneracy of the psuedo-ortho protons of the anion radical on the primary side.     

Organotransition-Metal Metallacarboranes. 46. Multidecker Sandwiches of the Cobalt Group Metals(,)(1)

The double-decker sandwich complex CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(4)H(4)) (1a) was prepared via deprotonation of nido-2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(4)H(6) to its mono- or dianion and reaction with (CpIrCl(2))(2) in THF and isolated as a colorless air-stable solid; the B(4)-chloro derivative 1b was also obtained. Decapitation of 1a and 1b with TMEDA afforded colorless nido-CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(5)) (2a) and its 4-chloro derivative 2b. Chlorination of 1a by Cl(2) or N-chlorosuccinimide gave the symmetrical species CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(4)H(3)-5-Cl) (1c), which was decapped to yield nido-CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(4)-5-Cl) (2c). The triple-decker complexes CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)-4[6]-Cl)IrCp (3), an orange solid, and dark green CpIr(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)-4[6]-Cl)CoCp (5) were prepared from 2a and nido-CpCo(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(5)) (4a), respectively, by deprotonation and reaction with (CpIrCl(2))(2) in THF. Reaction of the 2c(-) anion with Rh(MeCN)(3)Cl(3) gave the dark green tetradecker complex [CpIr(Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)-5-Cl)](2)RhH (6). In an attempt to prepare a heterotrimetallic Co-Rh-Ir tetradecker sandwich, a three-way reaction involving the deprotonated anions derived from CpCo(2,3-Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(4)-5-Cl) (4b) and 2c with Rh(MeCN)(3)Cl(3) was conducted. The desired species CpCo(Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)Cl)RhH(Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)Cl)IrCp (7) and the tetradeckers [CpCo(Et(2)C(2)B(3)H(2)Cl)](2)RhH (8) and 6 were isolated in small quantities from the product mixture; many other apparent triple-decker and tetradecker products were detected via mass spectroscopy but were not characterized. All new compounds were isolated via column or plate chromatography and characterized via NMR, UV-visible, and mass spectroscopy and by X-ray crystal structure determinations of 1a and 3. Crystal data for 1a: space group C2/c; a = 28.890(5) ?, b = 8.511(2) ?, c = 15.698(4) ?, beta = 107.61(2) degrees; Z = 8; R = 0.049 for 1404 independent reflections having I > 3sigma(I). Crystal data for 3: space group P2(1)/c; a = 11.775(4) ?, b = 15.546(5) ?, c = 15.500(5) ?, beta = 103.16(3) degrees; Z = 4; R = 0.066 for 2635 independent reflections having I > 3sigma(I).

Synthesis and Characterization of Aquapentachloroplatinates(IV) – Structure of [K(18-crown-6)][PtCl₅(H₂O)] The crown ether complex of the aquapentachloroplatinic acid of the composition [H₁₃O₆][PtCl₅(H₄O₂)] · 2(18-cr-6) ( 2 ) reacts with K₂CO₃ and [NⁿBu₄]OH in aqueous solution to give [K(18-cr-6)][PtCl₅(H₂O)] ( 5 a ) and [NⁿBu₄][PtCl₅(H₂O)] · ¹/₂ (18-cr-6) · H₂O ( 5 b ), respectively. Both compounds were characterized by microanalysis, vibrational (IR, Raman) and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁹⁵Pt) spectroscopy. The X-ray structure analysis of 5 a (orthorhombic, pnma; a = 16,550(4), b = 18,044(3), c = 7,415(1) Å; Z = 4; R1 = 0,0183; wR2 = 0,0414) reveals that the crystal is threaded by chains built up of [PtCl₅(H₂O)]^? and [K(18-cr-6)]⁺ units. There are tight K …? Cl contacts (d(K? Cl1)) = 3,0881(9) Å and O_W? H? O_cr hydrogen bridges (d(O1 …? O2) = 2,806(3) Å) between these units. The coordination polyhedron [PtCl₅O] has approximately C_4v symmetry.

Structural analysis of 2,6-[bis(alkyloxy)methyl]-phenyltin derivatives using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry was applied to the structural analysis of 23 2,6-[bis(alkyloxy)methyl]phenyltin(IV) derivatives. The mass spectra were measured in both polarity modes and multistage tandem mass spectrometric (MS(n)) measurements were performed on the ion trap analyser for positively charged tin-containing ions. The sum of complementary ions observed in the positive-ion mode (i.e. [M-R(3)](+) ion) and in the negative-ion mode (i.e. [R(3)](-) ion) permits molecular mass determination in spite of the fact that the molecular adducts were often missing even in the first-order mass spectra. The subsequent fragmentation of [M-R(3)](+) ions studied by MS(n) and the correlation of observed fragment ions with the expected structures of synthesized organotin(IV) compounds allowed us to understand the fragmentation behaviour and the mechanism of the ion formation for studied compounds. The typical neutral losses are alkenes, alcohols and aldehydes. The fragmentation pattern of one selected compound was supported by MS(n) measurements of an isotopically labelled analogue to confirm unusual ion-molecule reactions of some fragment ions with water in the ion trap.
