Total Synthesis of Crenulatan Diterpenes: Strategy and stereocontrolled construction of a bicyclic keto-lactone building block

The bicyclic keto lactone 26 was synthesized for the purpose of developing a viable route to marine diterpenes of the crenulatan type. Following the efficient conversion of (S)-citronellol ( 5 ) to the allylated alcohol 9a (Scheme 2), the αβ-unsaturated lactone 12 was efficiently accessed in preparation for stereocontrolled conjugate addition. The hydroxymethyl equivalent most suited to this task was (i-PrO)Me₂SiCH₂MgCl, which gave 13 predominantly in the presence of CuI and Me₃SiCl. Once the OH group was deprotected (→ 14 ), it proved an easy matter to implement acid-catalyzed isomerization to lactone 15 , oxidation of which gave the pivotal aldehyde 16 . Condensation of 16 with PhSeCH₂Li led via 21 to 22 (Scheme 3). Once the OH group was protected (→ 22b ), it proved possible to effect aldolization with crotonaldehyde (→ 23 ). Exposure of 23 to acid gave the sub-target compound 25 . Its subsequent oxidation and thermal activation resulted in sequential selenoxide elimination with Claisen rearrangement (→ 26 ). The structural features of 26 require that a chair-like transition state be adopted during the [3.3]sigmatropic event. With the clarification of these issues, a highly serviceable and more advanced assault on the crenulatans should prove capable of being mounted.     

Reaction of triphenylphosphine with phenylethanethiolate-protected Au38 nanoparticles

The replacement of phenylethanethiolate (SC2Ph) ligands on 1.1 nm (core diameter) Au38(SC2Ph)24 monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs) with varied amounts of triphenylphosphine (PPh3) is investigated in methylene chloride. UV-vis spectra suggest that changes in the MPC Au core size occur when large amounts (> 10 equiv moles per cluster) of PPh3 are reacted with Au38(SC2Ph)24. 1H and 31P NMR spectra following the addition of smaller amounts (< 5 equiv moles) of PPh3 indicate that the reaction liberates a AuISC2Ph complex, as opposed to a SC2Ph thiol, disulfide, or anion. A 1H NMR kinetic study shows that the exchange is surprisingly rapid, even faster than exchanges of thiolates with other thiolates, at room temperature and in air. The reaction is slowed when cooled or conducted under Ar. The difference in potentials of the initial one-electron voltammetric reduction and oxidation of Au38(SC2Ph)24 decreases slightly upon reaction with small amounts of PPh3.     

Waugh-型镍钼杂多酸的量子化学计算

采用半经验INDO法，完成了Waugh-型镍钼杂多酸（NH44）6〔NIMO9O32〕·6H2O的量子化学计算，得到146个成键轨道和78个反键轨道，轨道能级，电荷和键序等数据。通过对这些数据的分析，表明杂多酸分子中端氧和Ni都可能为化学活性中心，各原子轨道在分子轨道中都占有一定比例，其HOMO和LUMO能级皆为负值，其体系具有进一步接受电子的能力。这些结论与实验事实一致。

Fluorous Synthesis of Biaryl-Substituted Proline Analogs by 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition and Suzuki Coupling Reactions

A solution-phase synthesis of bicyclic prolines containing four points of diversity has been developed by a two-step synthesis involving 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of perfluoroalkylsulfonyl-protected hydroxybenzaldehydes followed by Pd-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction of fluorous sulfonates with boronic acids. Both reactions are conducted under microwave irradiation and reaction mixtures are purified by solid-phase extractions without performing chromatography.     

Determination of mercury in human urine by neutron activation analysis,with lead diethyldithiocarbamate as a preconcentration agent

Lead diethyldithiocarbamate is an effective reagent for preconcentration of mercury in urine for neutron activation analysis. Sodium and bromine are removed from the sample by this procedure. As lead diethyldithiocarbamate is insensitive to neutron activation, radiochemical separation is not needed after neutron irradiation. Results from the analysis of urine collected from workers in caustic soda manufacturing plants are discussed.

Determination of the atmospheric neutrino spectra with the Fréjus detector

The combined analysis of the final event set of data on neutrino interactions inside the detector, upward going stopping muons and horizontal muons recorded in the Fréjus experiment is presented. The absolute atmospheric neutrino spectra in the energy range for electron neutrinos and for muon neutrinos are determined. Based on the parameterization of Volkova for thev ^µ a spectral index of =2.66±0.05 is obtained from the ratio of horizontal muons over upward going stopping muons and from the measurement of the energy loss of horizontal muons inside the detector. The neutrino spectra are compared with various flux calculations. They do not show any evidence for neutrino oscillations in agreement with earlier analyses of the Fréjus data.Now atUniversity of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA
