Trifluoromethylated amino alcohols as chiral ligands for highly enantioselective Reformatsky reaction

The enantioselective Reformatsky reaction of PhCHO was achieved by the use of trifluoromethylated amino alcohols as chiral ligands to afford the corresponding optically active β-hydroxy ester with up to 90% ee.     

Competing reaction pathways from α-halo-α-protioalkyl aryl sulfoxides initiated by organometallic reagents

The reactions of syn-1-haloethyl p-chlorophenyl sulfoxides (halogen = Cl, Br) with main-group organometallic reagents (n-BuMgCl, MeLi, n-BuLi, s-BuLi, and t-BuLi) in THF and PhMe solvents were examined. Product distributions were analyzed to determine the extent of competing sulfoxide ligand exchange, halogen-metal exchange, and deprotonation reaction pathways. A combination of t-BuLi in PhMe was optimal for initiation of sulfoxide ligand exchange from syn-1-chloroethyl p-chlorophenyl sulfoxide.     

New methods for data analysis of isothermal titration calorimetry

Heat divided by ligand concentration vs. heat, similar to the Scatchard plot, was introduced to obtain the equilibrium constant (K) and the enthalpy of binding (DH) using isothermal titration calorimetry data. Values of K and DH obtained by this linear pseudo-Scatchard plot for a system with a set of independent binding sites (such as binding fluoride ions on urease and monosaccharide methyl a-D-mannopyranoside on concavalin A) were remarkably like that obtained from a normal fitting Wiseman method and other our technical methods. On applying this graphical method to study the binding of copper ion on myelin basic protein (MBP), a concave downward curve obtained was consistent with the positive cooperativity in the binding. A graphical fitting by simple method for determination of thermodynamic parameters was also introduced. This method is general, without any assumption and restriction made in previous method. This general method was applied to the product inhibition study of adenosine deaminase. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthesis of the new chiral tridentate ligand bis(pyrid-2-ylethyl) menthylphosphine and its use in the palladium-catalyzed allylic alkylations

We describe the synthesis of a new asymmetric P,N,N′-tridentate ligand (bis(pyrid-2-ylethyl) menthylphosphine, BPEMP), containing two pyridyl rings and (1S,2R,5S)-menthylphosphino group. The ligand is obtained in five steps from natural abundant l-menthol. The coordination behavior of the ligand toward cationic (allylic)Pd(II) moiety and its first application in palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation are presented. Crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses reveal that [(η³-allylic)Pd(BPEMP)]⁺ complex forms only one isomer in the solid state as well as in solution.     

Stabilization of p-block organoelement terminal hydroxides, thiols, and selenols requires newer synthetic strategies

Metal hydroxides represent a very interesting and highly useful class of compounds that have been known to chemists for a very long time. While alkali and alkaline earth metal hydroxides (s‐block) are commonplace chemicals in terms of their abundance and their use in a chemical laboratory as bases, the interest in Brønsted acidic molecular terminal hydroxides of p‐block elements, such as aluminum and silicon, has been of recent origin, with respect to the variety of applications these compounds can offer both in materials science and catalysis. Moreover, these systems are environmentally friendly, relative to the metal halides, owing to their ‐OH functionality (resembling that of water). Design and conceptualization of the corresponding terminal thiols, selenols, and tellurols (M? SH, M? SeH, and M? TeH) offer even more challenging problems to synthetic inorganic chemists. This concept summarizes some of the recent strategies developed to stabilize these otherwise very unstable species. The successful preparation of a number of silicon trihydroxides a few years back resulted in the generation of several model compounds for metal–silicates. The recent synthesis of unusual aluminum compounds such as RAl(OH)₂, RAl(SH)₂, and RAl(SeH)₂ with terminal EH (E=O, Se, or Se) groups is likely to change the ways in which some of the well‐known catalytic conversions are being carried out. The need for very flexible and innovative synthetic strategies to achieve these unusual compounds is emphasized in this concept.     

Phasentransferkatalysatoren auf Basis von Saccharose-Ethylenoxid-Addukten

Sucrose ethyleneoxide adducts have been prepared by reaction of sucrose with various amounts of ethyleneoxide inDMSO. The resulting polypode molecules were found to be efficient phase transfer catalysts in nucleophilic substitutions, oxidation and dichlorcarbene generation. Polymerisable polypodes have been obtained by reaction of sucrose ethyleneoxide adducts with methacrylic anhydride or methacryloylchloride in pyridine. Free radical polymerisation of the resulting mixtures of mono- and polyfunctional methacrylic esters of sucrose ethyleneoxide adducts yielded crosslinked gels. These polymer-supported octopus-molecules were found to be efficient triphase catalysts.

     

Phospha-adamantanes as ligands for organopalladium chemistry: aminations of aryl halides

The use of Pd₂dba₃·CHCl₃ and 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,4,8-trioxa-6-phenyl-6-phospha-adamantane has been shown to facilitate the effective amination of aryl halides with aromatic or aliphatic amines in high yields.     

Chelating Behaviour of Substituted 1-Benzoyl-4-Phenylthiosemicarbazide

The preparation and characterization of a series of new coordination compounds of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) containing o-methyl- or o-chlorobenzoyl-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazide (HMBPT, HCBPT=HL) are reported. The reaction products were investigated by analyses, electrolytic conductance, magnetic susceptibility, reflectance and IR spectral studies. The IR spectra show that HMBPT and HCBPT coordinate with the metal ions via different coordination sites (NS and/or NO). The spectral data support the suggestion that the ligands form his-chelates with Ni(II) and Cu(II) of square planar stereochemistry and of general formulae ML₂·H₂O, where L is the uninegatively charged bidentate ligand. The Co(II) ion forms octahedral and tetrahedral structures with HMBPT and HCBPT, respectively. The ligand field parameters (D₄, B and β) for the Co(II) chelates were calculated using the averaged-ligand-field approximation. The influence of the benzene ring substituents (o-chloro or o-methyl) on the stereochemistry are discussed. Also, the formation of the complexes in solution was tested by the pH-metric method.
