Conformational flexibility of 1,4-dihydroazine carbonyl derivatives

Summary The molecular geometry of 4-oxo derivatives of 1,4-dihydropyridine, 1,4-dihydropyrimidine, 1,4-dihydropyridazine, and 1,4-dihydro-1,3,5-triazine has been calculated by the semi-empirical quantum-chemical AM1 method. It could be shown that the dihydrocycle in these compounds is not conformationally rigid. Changing the angle between the endocyclic double bond planes ±15° causes less than 1 kcal/mol increase of energy.

Konformative Flexibilität von 1,4-Dihydroazin-carbonyl-Derivaten (Kurze Mitt.)

Zusammenfassung Die molekulare Geometrie von 4-Oxo-Derivaten von 1,4-Dihydropyridin, 1,4-Dihydropyrimidin, 1,4-Dihydropyridazin und 1,4-Dihydro-1,3,5-triazin wurde mittels der semiempirischen quantenchemischen AM1-Methode berechnet. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß der zweifach hydrierte Ring in diesen Verbindungen nicht starr ist. Eine Änderung des Winkels zwischen den Ebenen der endocyclischen Doppelbindungen um ±15° bewirkt eine Energieerhöhung von weniger als 1 kcal/mol.

     

Synthesis of new 3,4-di-and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolin-4-one derivatives and X-ray diffraction study of crystal solvates of 3-methylsulfonylamino-2-(2-methylsulfonylaminophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolin-4-one

The reactions of hydrazide, mesyl hydrazide, succinyl hydrazide, and maleyl hydrazide of anthranilic acid with carbonyl compounds were studied, and new di-and tetrahydroquinazolin-4-one derivatives were prepared. The structure of one reaction product, viz., 3-methylsulfonylamino-2-(2-methylsulfonylaminophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazolin-4-one, was established by X-ray diffraction study of two crystal solvates of this compound. The characteristic features of the crystal packings of these solvates are discussed. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1183–1191, July, 2006.     

Electronic structure and conformational flexibility of 1,2-dihydropyridine, 1,2- and 1,6-dihydropyrimidines,and their ylide derivatives

Molecular and electronic structures of 1,2-dihydropyridine, 1,2- and 1,6-dihydropyrimidine, and their oxo, imino, and methylene derivatives were studied by the semiempirical quantum-chemical AM1 method. In all compounds, the heterocycle exhibits a high conformational flexibility. The transition from a planar equilibrium conformation to a distorted sofa conformation with the =C-NH-C-C(N)= torsion angle of ±20° causes an increase in the energy by less than 1.7 kcal mol^–1. All molecules have similar -electronic structures, which, apparently, determines the similarity in their conformational behavior. The bending strain and the nonaromatic character of the cyclic -system are the factors that stabilize the nonplanar conformation of the ring in unsubstituted dihydroazines and ylide derivatives, respectively.Translated fromIzvestiva Akademii Nauk.

Induced Absorption of C60 and a Water-Soluble C60-Derivative in SiO2 Sol-Gel Matrices

Porous sol-gel glasses, either impregnated with pure C₆₀ or doped with a methanofullerene derivative, have been studied and induced absorption or reverse saturable absorption (RSA) has been observed in both types of solid materials. The samples impregnated by pure C₆₀ mainly contain well-dispersed fullerene molecules. Unlike crystalline films of C₆₀, their absorption dynamics can be well described by a 5-level model, developed for non-interacting C₆₀-molecules in solutions. Methanofullerene samples, on the other hand, show signs of micellar aggregation and therefore RSA dynamics that are influenced by solid state effects. We observe an important decrease of transmission at high fluences for both kinds of samples, a shortened singlet-state lifetime to that observed in solution, but nonetheless, a triplet yield, that cannot be considered as negligible. In the case of pure C₆₀ in a sol-gel matrix, we can explain the faster de-excitation dynamics, relative to behavior in solution, mainly by the absence of stabilizing aromatic solvents and also by the interaction of the amorphous environment with the molecules. Concerning the methanofullerene samples, the acceleration of the de-excitation dynamics can be principally attributed to solid-state effects due to the micellar aggregation.     

Chiral Recognition of Phenylacetic Acid Derivatives by Aminated Cyclodextrins

Chiral recognition of mandelic acid ( 1), acetylmandelic acid ( 2), 1-methoxyphenylacetic acid ( 3), phenylsuccinic acid ( 4), 2-phenylpropanoic acid ( 5) and ibuprofen ( 6) in their anionic forms by protonated 6A-amino-6A-deoxy--cyclodextrin (mono-NH3+--CD) and 6A,6D-diamino-6A,6D-dideo xy--cyclodextrin (di-NH3+--CD) has been studied by means of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Both methods show the preferable guests for mono-NH3+--CD to be the (R)-enantiomers of 1, 3 and 5 and the (S)-enantiomers of 2, 4 and 6. Cooperative work of Coulomb interactions and inclusion is essential for chiral recognition of these anionic guests.

Unique stereochemistry of 3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives

The conformational equilibrium in solution was examined by NMR spectroscopy for a series of 7-phenyl-3-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives containing various substituents at the boron atom. The structures of these derivatives were studied in the crystalline state (X-ray diffraction analysis) and by quantum-chemical calculations (B3Pw91/6-31G*). The B...Ph transannular interactions corresponding to charge transfer from the system of the phenyl group to the vacant p-orbital of the B atom were demonstrated to be responsible for unique stability of the chair-chair conformation of these derivatives.Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Heat capacities of aqueous solutions of amino acid and dipeptide derivatives of fullerene

The concentration dependences of heat capacities of aqueous solutions of several amino acid and peptide derivatives of fullerene were measured by scanning differential calorimetry at 298 K. The heat capacities for the arginine, alanylalanine, and glycylvaline derivatives dissolved in water depend slightly on concentration. The concentration dependences of the heat capacities of aqueous solutions of the serine and alanine derivatives display extrema. The calculated contributions of hydration to the heat capacities of the dissolved fullerene derivatives have both positive and negative signs. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
