Stereochemistry of ketone olefination with methyl trimethylsilylacetate

High (Z)-stereoselectivity of olefination of methyl α-phenylthioalkyl and methyl α-phenylthioalkenyl ketones with methyl trimethylsilylacetate decreases in the case of ketones containing a higher alkyl-substituent in place of the methyl group.

Synthesis and chelation properties of new polymeric ligand derived from 8-hydroxy-5-azoquinoline hydroxy benzene

8-Hydroxy-5-azoquinoline phenyl methacrylate-formaldehyde (8H5AQPMA-F) macromonomer was prepared from methacryloyl chloride with condensation products of 8-hydroxy-5-azoquinoline phenol-formaldehyde, and polymerized in DMF at 70 °C using benzoyl peroxide as free radical initiator. Poly(8H5AQPMA-F) was characterized by infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic techniques. Polychelates were obtained when the DMF solution of the resin containing few drops of ammonia was treated with the aqueous solution of Cu(II)/Ni(II). Elemental analysis of the polychelates indicates that the metal to ligand ratio was about 1:2. The IR spectra of polychelates suggest that the metals were coordinated through the oxygen of the phenolic-OH group and nitrogen of the quinoline ligand. The DRS and magnetic moment data indicate a square planar for Cu(II) complex whereas octahedral for Ni(II) complex. The TGA data revealed the thermal stability of the resin and the polychelates. X-ray diffraction study revealed the incorporation of the metal ions significantly enhanced the degree of crystallinity. The sorption properties of the chelate-forming resin towards various divalent metal ions [Cu(II) and Ni(II)] were studied as a function of pH and electrolyte.     

A convergent synthesis of octadeca-2E, 13Z-dienyl acetate, a pheromone component ofSynanthedon tipuliformis C.

A convergent synthesis of octadeca-2E, 13Z-dienyl acetate, a pheromone component ofSynanthedon tipuliformis C., has been developed. The synthesis is based on cross-coupling of 8-iodooct-2E-en-I-ol THP ether with dec-5Z-enyl bromide catalyzed by CuBr. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Improved third-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory

Based on a partitioning of the total correlation energy into contributions from parallel‐ and antiparallel‐spin pairs of electrons, a modified third‐order Møller–Plesset (MP) perturbation theory is developed. The method, termed SCS–MP3 (SCS for spin‐component‐scaled) continues previous work on an improved version of MP2 (S. Grimme, J Chem Phys 2003, 118, 9095). A benchmark set of 32 isogyric reaction energies, 11 atomization energies, and 11 stretched geometries is used to assess to performance of the model in comparison to the standard quantum chemical approaches MP2, MP3, and QCISD(T). It is found, that the new method performs significantly better than usual MP2/MP3 and even outperforms the more costly QCISD method. Opposite to the usual MP series, the SCS third‐order correction uniformly improves the results. Dramatic enhancements are especially observed for the more difficult atomization energies, some of the stretched geometries, and reaction and ionization energies involving transition metal compounds where the method seems to be competitive or even superior to the widely used density functional approaches. Further tests performed for other complex systems (biradicals, C₂₀ isomers, transition states) demonstrate that the SCS–MP3 model yields often results of QCISD(T) accuracy. The uniformity with which the new approach improves for very different correlation problems indicates significant robustness, and suggests it as a valuable quantum chemical method of general use. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Influence of conjugated nitrogenous bases on the spectra and structure of mixed-ligand nickel(II) chelates containing β-diones

The infrared and electronic excitation spectra of a series of new nickel(II) chelates containing an-diimine (or nitrogenous base, enR) and the anion of a-dione (1,3-ketoenol or 1,3-ketoester,H) were obtained in the solid state and in solution. The composition and the overall structure of the new chelates in the solid state depends on ligand concentration, the substituents within the-dionato moiety and the counterion present. The IR and electronic excitation spectra of [Ni(enR)₂ ]NO₃ and [Ni(enR)(O₂NO)] indicate, in conjunction with other physicochemical measurements, bidentate coordination of the ligands, while the spectral shifts reveal replacement of the (O,O)nitrato group by basic solvents. The existence of the nickel(II) in an octahedral environment is confirmed by an X-ray structure analysis of [Ni(dpamH)₂acac]NO₃ · CH₃OH (monoclinic, space groupP2_l/n, a=17.296(1),b=7.462(1),c=21.604(3) å,=95.65(1),Z=4, R=0.0534,Rw=0.0600), where dpamH denotes the 2,2-dipyridylamine.
