Umsetzungen von Ferrocenol und 1,1′-Ferrocendiol mit Cyclotriphosphazenen,P3N3F6 und P3N3Cl6

Reactions of Ferrocenol and 1,1′-Ferrocendiol with Cyclotriphosphazenes, P₃N₃F₆ and P₃N₃Cl₆ The hexahalogeno-cyclotriphosphazenes, P₃N₃X₆ (X ? F ( 1 a ), Cl ( 1 b )), react with ferrocenol (FcOH) in a molar ratio 1 : 1 to give the ferrocenoxy derivatives, FcO[P₃N₃X₅] (X ? F ( 3 a ), Cl ( 3 b )); in an analogous manner the tetrameric ring P₄N₄Cl₈ ( 2 b ) is converted to FcO[P₄N₄Cl₇] ( 4 b ).

1 Abkürzungen: Fc = Ferrocenyl, (C₅H₅)Fe(C₅H_4?); fc = 1,1′-ferrocendiyl, Fe(C₅H_4?)₂; rc = 1,1′-ruthenocendiyl, Ru(C₅H_4?)₂. Fluorphosphazene werden mit a , Chlorphosphazene mit b gekennzeichnet.

With 1,1′-ferrocenediol, (fc(OH) ₂ ), the cyclo triphosphazenes react in a molar ratio 1 : 1 to produce fcO ₂ [P ₃ N ₃ X ₄ ] (X ? F ( 5 a ), Cl ( 5 b )). According to the x-ray structure analysis, the 1,1′-ferrocenediolato group in 5 a , b is bound to two different phosphorus atoms. On the contrary, the 1,1′-ferrocenedithiolato- and 1,1′-ferrocenediselenolato units in fcS ₂ [P ₃ N ₃ X ₅ ] (X ? F ( 6 a ), Cl ( 6 b )) and fcSe ₂ [P ₃ N ₃ X ₅ ] (X ? F ( 7 a ), Cl ( 7 b )) are attached to only one phosphorus atom, and spirocyclic 1,3-dichalcogena-2-phospha-[3]ferrocenophanes are formed. All new products have been characterized on the basis of their ¹ H, ¹³ C and ³¹ P NMR as well as EI mass spectra. The molecular structures of 5 a , b and 6 a have been determined by x-ray structure analyses.

Crystals of CuNb(pyz)₂OF₅ · (pyz)(H₂O) ( 1 ) and [Cu(pyz)_2.5]⁺ [NbF₆]^? · (pyz) ( 2 ) were grown (150°C and autogeneous pressures) from CuO, 1/2(Nb₂O₅), (HF)_x · pyridine, and H₂O in excess pyrazine.

Orange crystals of ( 2 ) are monoclinic, crystallizing in space group C2/c (No. 15), with a = 11.792(8) Å, b = 17.123(3) Å, c = 17.051(5) Å, β = 90.04(4)°, and Z = 8.

De novo design, synthesis, and function of semiartificial myoglobin conjugated with coiled-coil two-alpha-helix peptides

The introduction of a flavin chromophore on the myoglobin (Mb) surface and an effective electron-transfer (ET) reaction through the flavin were successfully achieved by utilizing the self-assembly of heterostranded coiled-coil peptides. We have prepared a semiartificial Mb, named Mb-1alphaK, in which an amphiphilic and cationic alpha-helix peptide is conjugated at the heme propionate (Heme-1alphaK). Heme-1alphaK has a covalently bound iron-protoporphyrin IX (heme) at the N terminus of a 1alphaK peptide sequence. This sequence was designed to form a heterostranded coiled-coil in the presence of a counterpart amphiphilic and anionic 1alphaE peptide sequence in a parallel orientation. Two peptides, Fla(1)-1alphaE and Fla(31)-1alphaE, both incorporating a 10-methylisoalloxazine moiety as an artificial flavin molecule, were also prepared (Fla=2-[7-(10-methyl)isoalloxazinyl]-2-oxoethyl). Heme-1alphaK was successfully inserted into apomyoglobin to give Mb-1alphaK. Mb-1alphaK recognized the flavin-modified peptides and a two-alpha-helix structure was formed. In addition, an efficient ET from reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide to the heme center through the flavin unit was observed. The ET rate was faster in the presence of Fla(1)-1alphaE than in the presence of Fla(31)-1alphaE or the equivalent molecule that has no peptide chain. These results demonstrate that the introduction of a functional chromophore on the Mb surface can be achieved by using specific peptide-peptide interactions. Moreover, the dependence of the ET rate on the position of the flavin indicated that the distance between the heme active site and the flavin chromophore was regulated by the three-dimensional structure of the designed polypeptide.     

Theoretical studies on the band structures of superconducting solid compounds: Nb3X (X=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb)

The band structures of several analogous superconducting A-15 type solid compounds, Nb3X (X=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb), have been calculated by use of the tight-binding method within the Extended Huckel approximation (EHT). By analysis of their energy bands, densities of states and crystal orbital overlap populations, the dependence of the superconducting transition temperatures (Tc) on the electronic structures and bondings is qualitatively elucidated.     

Examination of the statistical method in the conjugated circuit theory

Summary The recently proposed statistical method for the calculation of resonance energies in the conjugated circuit theory is tested on the example of polyacenes. It is found that for the estimation of the resonance energy with a 10% average error, the method requires a sample consisting of about 20 (randomly chosen) Kekulé structures. Further increase of the sample size gives no significant gain in the accuracy of the method.

Überprüfung der statistischen Methode in der Konjugierten-Ring-Theorie

Zusammenfassung Die unlängst vorgeschlagene statistische Methode in der Konjugierten-Ring-Theorie (conjugated circuit theory) wird am Beispiel der Polyacene getestet. Es wurde festgestellt, daß für die Abschätzung der Resonanzenergien bei einem mittleren Fehler von 10% für diese Methode ungefähr 20 (willkürlich gewählte) Kekulé-Strukturen nötig sind. Weitere Erhöhung dieser Anzahl bringt keine signifikante Verbesserung der Genauigkeit der Methode.

     

Cyanidverbrückte Koordinationspolymere aus cis‐ oder trans‐[Ru(tBuNC)4(CN)2] und MnCl2: Zum Einfluß unterschiedlicher Topologien auf die magnetischen Eigenschaften von Materialien

Cyanide Bridged Coordination Polymers from cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] and MnCl₂: About the Influence of Different Topologies on the Magnetic Properties of Materials The reaction of cis‐ or trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] with MnCl₂ as an additional transition metal fragment yields the one dimensional coordination polymers {cis‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄] MnCl₂}_n, ( 1 ), and {trans‐[Ru(CN)₂(^tBuNC)₄]MnCl₂}_n, ( 2 ), with a different arrangement of the metal centers caused by the different stereochemistry of the starting compounds. The variation of the Ru‐C‐N‐Mn geometry nevertheless leads to significant differences in the magnetic properties of 1 and 2 . The coordination polymer derived from trans‐[Ru(^tBuNC)₄(CN)₂] shows a more efficient antiferromagnetic intrachain interaction between the manganese centers compared to the cis‐derivative.

Coordination Chemistry of Acrylamide 4. Crystal Structures and IR Spectroscopic Properties of Acrylamide Complexes with CoII,NiII, and ZnII nitrates

Acrylamide complexes of metal nitrates: [M(O‐OC(NH₂)CHCH₂)_n(H₂O)_m][NO₃]₂ (M = Co( 1 ), Ni( 2 ) (n = 6 and m = 0) and Zn( 3 ) (n = 4 and m = 2)) have been determined by using single crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis. All complexes crystallize in the triclinic space group . The structures of 1 and 2 represent octahedral species [M(AAm)₆]²⁺ (AAm = O‐OC(NH₂)CHCH₂ and M = Co or Ni) and uncoordinated nitrate ions. The structure of 3 involves the octahedral cation [Zn(AAm)₄(H₂O)₂]²⁺ in which the Zn²⁺ environment includes oxygen atoms of four acrylamide and two water molecules that are stabilized using ionic nitrate ions. The observations of the solid‐state IR spectroscopic vibrational frequencies of these acrylamide complexes are in agreement with the crystal structures.
