Tertiary phosphine induced migratory carbonyl insertion in cyclopentadienyl complexes of iron(II)

Cyclopentadienyldicarbonylmethyliron, [CpFe(CO)₂Me] (1), undergoes migratory carbonyl insertion under the influence of isosteric phosphine ligands P(4-FC₆H₄)₃ and P(4-MeC₆H₄)₃. The products of the reaction, [CpFe(CO)(COMe)P(4-FC₆H₄)₃] (2a) and [CpFe(CO)(COMe)P(4-MeC₆H₄)₃] (2b), were characterised by X-ray crystallography. In both structures, the iron atom adopts a pseudo octahedral coordination geometry. Fe-P bond distances are the same at 2.1932(8) Å in 2a and 2b, respectively. Thus, contrary to what was expected, X-ray data could not be used to quantitatively differentiate between the two phosphine ligands in 2a and 2b. Therefore, additional spectroscopic techniques such as IR and NMR were employed. Similarly, the Fe-C bond lengths of the carbonyl (Fe-CO) and acetyl (Fe-COMe) are 1.748(3) and 1.955(3) in 2a, and 1.744(3) and 1.951(3) Å in 2b, respectively.The migratory carbonyl insertion was studied by NMR, IR, and UV-vis spectroscopies to determine the mechanism and the rate law. Results from NMR spectroscopy show that the formation of the product is accompanied by oxidation of the corresponding phosphine ligand. An increase in the reactivity of migratory carbonyl insertion for P(4-MeC₆H₄)₃ was observed when the solvent was changed from CH₂Cl₂ to MeCN. The kinetic data showed that P(4-MeC₆H₄)₃ reacts faster than P(4-FC₆H₄)₃.

Zwei neue Metatitanate mit fünffach koordiniertem Titan: CsNaTiO3 und RbNaTiO3

Two New Metatitanates with Five-coordinated Titanium: CsNaTiO₃ and RbNaTiO₃ [1] The new oxides CsNaTiO₃ (I) and RbNaTiO₃ (II) are obtained by heating well grounded mixtures of the binary oxides in Ni-tubes as colourless platelike crystals. I: CsO_0.56, NaO_0.48 and TiO₂, Cs:Na:Ti = 1.1:1.1:1.0; 600°C, 61 d as well as CsO_0.97, NaO_0.48 and Ti₂O₃, Cs:Na:Ti = 1.5:3.0:1.0; 760°C, 27 d. II: RbO_0.52, NaO_0.48 and TiO₂, Rb:Na:Ti = 1.1:1.1:1.0; 750°C, 14 d as well as RbO_0.98, NaO_0.48 and Ti₂O₃, Rb:Na:Ti = 1.5:3.1:1.0; 760°C, 27 d. CsNaTiO₃ (orthorhombic, Cmcm) is nearly isostructural with KNaTiO₃ [2]; a = 601.4(1) pm, b = 1 120.3(1) pm, c = 563.4(1) pm (Guinier-Simon-Data, Z = 4). RbNaTiO₃ (monoclinic, C2/c) is isostructural with KNaTiO₃; a = 590.3(1) pm, b = 1 098.4(1) pm, c = 555.1(0) pm, β = 92.15° (Guinier-Simon-Data, Z = 4). Both structures are determined by using four-circle diffractometer data (CsNaTiO₃: Siemens AED2, 2 896I_o(hkl), MoKα , R = 2.4%, R_w = 2.3%; RbNaTiO₃: Philips PW 1 100, 2 743I_o(hkl), AgKα , R = 9.9%, R_w = 8.9%; additional data see text).

Solvent effects in a carbenoid N-H insertion route to triarylamines via 2-diazo-1,3-cyclohexanedione

The Rh-carbenoid derived from 2-diazo-1,3-cyclohexanedione inserts into the N-H bond of arylalkylamines and diarylamines. A solvent for this reactive carbenoid is suggested. The insertion products undergo a Pd-mediated aromatization to afford alkyldiarylamines and triarylamines.     

Surface structures of adsorption layers of sodium hyaluronate and bovine serum albumin complexes on poly(γ-methyl-l-glutamate) film and their surface properties

Two-dimensional structures and characteristics of the complexes between sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by using a quartz crystal microbalance method and an atomic force microscope (AFM). NaHA did not adsorb on poly(-methyl-l-glutamate) (PMLG) film. On the other hand, the complexes adsorbed on it and the adsorption behaviors were found to be Langmuir types. With increasing weight ratio of BSA to NaHA, W _BSA, the adsorption constants K decreased and the saturated adsorption masses increased. The adsorbed complexes were spherical particles and at saturated adsorption states they covered compactly on the PMLG film. The mean diameters d _AFM estimated from the topographic images decreased from 70 to 54 nm with increasing W _BSA. The adhesion force F _ad and the frictional force F _f between the complex layers and the AFM tip were obtained by using the contact mode of the AFM. With increasing W _BSA, the values of F _ad decreased and the values of F _f increased. Compared with the frictional coefficient of the NaHA adsorption layer on the BSA monolayer, the values for the NaHA–BSA complex layer were found to be much higher.     

Synthesis of sodium-polystyrenesulfonate-grafted nanoparticles by core-cross-linking of block copolymer micelles

Sodium poly(styrenesulfonate)(polySSNa)-grafted polymer nanoparticles were synthesized by core-cross-linking of block copolymer micelles and subsequent chemical transformation. Block copolymers, poly(p-((1-methyl)silacyclobutyl)styrene-block-poly(neopentyl p-styrenesulfonate)s, polySBS-b-polySSPen, were synthesized by nitroxy-mediated living radical polymerization. The block copolymers formed micelles (R_h=15-23 nm, where R_h represents the hydrodynamic radius) with a polySBS core and polySSPen shell in acetone. The micelle core was cross-linked by ring-opening polymerization of silacyclobutyl groups in polySBS. Hydrolysis of the neopentyl groups provided polySSNa-grafted nanoparticles. The R_h of the particles before the hydrolysis ranged from 12 to 21 nm in acetone, while they varied to the range from 50 to 110 nm in water after the hydrolysis.     

Indirect Determination of Captopril with Sodium Nitrate and Thiocyanate by Floatation Separation of Copper

A new method for indirect determination of captopril (CPT) with NaNO₃ and NH₄SCN by floatation and separation of copper has been studied. In the weak acid, a small amount of Cu(II) can be reduced to Cu(I) by CPT, then Cu(I) reacted with the SCN, which can float on the surface of the liquid phase with NaNO₃. A good linear relationship is observed between the floatation yield (E%) of Cu(II) and the amount of captopril. The linear range is 2?32 mg/L. On the ground, captopril can be indirectly determined by determining E(%) of Cu(II). The method is simple, rapid, reliable and has good selectivity. The developed method can be applied to indirect determination of captopril with satisfactory results.
