Synthesis of azoxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanones based on diastereoselective reactions of 1,1-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)ketene acetals with isoquinolines and quinolines

Densely functionalized azoxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanones were prepared by regio- and diastereoselective condensation of 1,1-bis(silyloxy)ketene acetals with isoquinolinium and quinolinium salts and subsequent regioselective and stereospecific iodolactonization.     

Preparation and Synthetic Utility of 1-Trimethylsiloxyalkyl-bis(trimethylsilyl)silanes, (Me3Si)2SiH–C(OSiMe3)R1R2

1-Trimethylsiloxyalkyl-bis(trimethylsilyl)silanes ( 5 ), obtained by a base induced isomerization of easily accessable 1-hydroxyalkyl-tris(trimethylsilyl)silanes ( 1 ) were hydrolized to give 1-hydroxyalkyl-bis(trimethylsilyl)silanes ( 6 ), which in presence of sodium hydride underwent a further 1,3-Si,O-trimethylsilyl migration resulting in the formation of 1-trimethylsiloxyalkyl-disilanes Me₃SiSiH₂–C(OSiMe₃)R¹R² ( 7 ). Under acidic conditions, the alkoxysilanes 5 isomerized in a Me₃Si/OSiMe₃ exchange under formation of the 1-trimethylsilylalkyldisiloxanes 10 , which were hydrolyzed affording the silanols 11 . Chlorination of the H-silanes 5 with CCl₄ gave the chlorosilanes 12 , which underwent rapid thermal isomerizations to give via the 1-chloroalkyldisiloxanes 13 the 1-trimethylsilylalkyl-chlorodisiloxanes 15 . Hydrolysis of 12 or 15 , resp., finally afforded the 1-trimethylsilylalkyl-silanediols 18 . Possible mechanisms of the various isomerization processes are discussed. The structures of the products described were elucidated by full spectral analyses. For 18 a the results of an X-ray structural analysis are given.     

Kristallstruktur eines Lithiumsilylamidbutanids

Crystal Structure of a Lithiumsilylamidebutanide Colorless single crystals of {Li₆[Me₂(H)Si—N—Si(H)—(CHMe₂)₂]₂[n‐C₄H₉]₄} ( 1 ) were obtained from a solution of Me₂(H)SiN(Li)Si(H)(CHMe₂)₂ and n‐C₄H₉Li in n‐hexane. The X‐ray analysis showed that the core of 1 is a distorted octahedron of lithium atoms with ten long and with two short LiÄLi distances. Four of the eight triangular Li₃ faces are capped by an n‐butyl group. The nitrogen atoms of the amide groups are situated about opposite edges of adjacent unoccupied Li₃ faces. (Si)H····Li interactions exist between the hydridic H atom of each Me₂(H)Si group and one Li atom.     

Der erste röntgenstrukturanalytisch charakterisierte Cs+ – „in cavity”︁ – Komplex eines einundzwanziggliedrigen Coronanden: (Maleonitril-Dithio[21]krone-7)caesium-hexachloroantimonat

First X-ray Crystallographic Characterized Cs⁺ ‘‘in cavity”︁”︁ Complex of a Twenty-one Membered Coronand: (Maleonitrile-Dithio[21]crown-7)caesium Hexachloroantimonate A new maleonitrile-crown dithioether, the maleonitrile-dithio[21]crown-7 (mn–21 S₂O₅), was synthesized by high dilution cyclization of (Z)-1,2-disodium-1,2-dicyanoethene-1,2-dithiolate ( 1 ) with 1,17-dichloro-3,6,9,12,15-pentaoxaheptadecane ( 2 ) in ethanol/water mixtures. Mn–21 S₂O₅ forms with CsSbCl₆ in MeCN/MeNO₂ a 1 : 1 complex [Cs(mn–21 S₂O₅)]SbCl₆. X-ray crystal analysis revealed that the complex cation [Cs(mn–21 S₂O₅)]⁺ is an ‘‘in cavity”︁”︁ complex in which the Cs⁺ ion is coordinated by seven donor atoms (five O and two S atoms). This is the first X-ray crystallographic evidence of Cs⁺ coordination by seven donors in a hole of a twenty-one membered coronand.     

First synthesis of functionalized 5-aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenols by regioselective [3+3] cyclocondensations of 1,3-bis(silyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 3-aryl-3-silyloxy-1-trifluoromethyl-2-en-1-ones

A variety of functionalized 5-aryl-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenols were prepared by the first TiCl₄-mediated [3+3] cyclocondensation of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with 3-aryl-3-trimethylsilyloxy-1-trifluoromethyl-2-en-1-ones.

Chemical probes that selectively recognize the earliest Aβ oligomers in complex mixtures

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by the self-assembly of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides. Recent models implicate some of the earliest Aβ oligomers, such as trimers and tetramers, in disease. However, the roles of these structures remain uncertain, in part, because selective probes of their formation are not available. Toward that goal, we generated bivalent versions of the known Aβ ligand, the pentapeptide KLVFF. We found that compounds containing sufficiently long linkers (～19 to 24 ?) recognized primarily Aβ trimers and tetramers, with little binding to either monomer or higher order structures. These compounds might be useful probes for early Aβ oligomers.     

Infrared spectroscopic and thermal analytical investigations on the polymorphism of N-arylsulphonyl isothioureas

34 compounds containing the SO₂-N-C-N-moiety are investigated by means of infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry to study problems of polymorphic species. There are arguments for different crystalline solids of 16 sulphonyl derivatives. The phenomenon of polymorphism can be discussed both in terms of different hydrogen bonding and conformational effects. Although two tautomers are thinkable for the compounds being investigated the sulphonylimino structure is assumed to yield the most stable state.     

One-pot cyclization of dilithiated nitriles with isothiocyanates and epibromohydrin. Synthesis of 2-cyano-1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopropanes and 2-cyanomethylidene-4-(hydroxymethyl)thiazolidines

The cyclization of dilithiated nitriles with epibromohydrin afforded 2-cyano-1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopropanes. 2-Cyanomethylidene-(4-hydroxymethyl)thiazolidines were prepared by one-pot cyclization of dilithiated nitriles with isothiocyanates and epibromohydrin.
