Total synthesis of cucurbitoside A using a novel fluorous protecting group

The first total synthesis of cucurbitoside A was achieved using a new fluorous N-phenylcarbamoyl (^FCar) protecting group. The ^FCar group was introduced into carbohydrates in high yield and was selectively removed with Bu₄NNO₂ without damaging other acyl protecting groups. The synthetic intermediates were easily isolated by fluorous solid-phase extraction.     

N1,N3-Diacyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones: neutral acyl group transfer reagents

Readily available N1,N3-diacyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones efficiently acylate ammonia, primary and secondary amines to furnish primary, secondary and tertiary amides in good to excellent yields. The wide applicability of the procedure is demonstrated by running the reactions in a neutral medium, easy isolation of products, recycling of the innocuous by-product and chemoselectivity of the transformation.     

Atom Exchange Versus Reconstruction: (GexAs4−x)x− (x=2, 3) as Building Blocks for the Supertetrahedral Zintl Cluster [Au6(Ge3As)(Ge2As2)3]3−

The Zintl anion (Ge₂As₂)^2? represents an isostructural and isoelectronic binary counterpart of yellow arsenic, yet without being studied with the same intensity so far. Upon introducing [(PPh₃)AuMe] into the 1,2‐diaminoethane (en) solution of (Ge₂As₂)^2?, the heterometallic cluster anion [Au₆(Ge₃As)(Ge₂As₂)₃]^3? is obtained as its salt [K(crypt‐222)]₃[Au₆(Ge₃As)(Ge₂As₂)₃]?en?2 tol ( 1 ). The anion represents a rare example of a superpolyhedral Zintl cluster, and it comprises the largest number of Au atoms relative to main group (semi)metal atoms in such clusters. The overall supertetrahedral structure is based on a (non‐bonding) octahedron of six Au atoms that is face‐capped by four (Ge_xAs_4?x)^x? (x=2, 3) units. The Au atoms bind to four main group atoms in a rectangular manner, and this way hold the four units together to form this unprecedented architecture. The presence of one (Ge₃As)^3? unit besides three (Ge₂As₂)^2? units as a consequence of an exchange reaction in solution was verified by detailed quantum chemical (DFT) calculations, which ruled out all other compositions besides [Au₆(Ge₃As)(Ge₂As₂)₃]^3?. Reactions of the heavier homologues (Tt₂Pn₂)^2? (Tt=Sn, Pb; Pn=Sb, Bi) did not yield clusters corresponding to that in 1 , but dimers of ternary nine‐vertex clusters, {[AuTt₅Pn₃]₂}^4? (in 2 – 4 ; Tt/Pn=Sn/Sb, Sn/Bi, Pb/Sb), since the underlying pseudo‐tetrahedral units comprising heavier atoms do not tend to undergo the said exchange reactions as readily as (Ge₂As₂)^2?, according to the DFT calculations.     

含硅功能化聚烯烃:合成及应用

聚烯烃功能化改性是获得高性价比新材料的有效途径。含硅功能化聚烯烃(SFPO)是聚烯烃分子结构中含有机硅功能基团或有机硅聚合物链段的一类功能化聚烯烃的统称。由于有机硅功能基团及有机硅聚合物特殊的理化性质,SFPO通常具有丰富反应性或优异性能,成为一类有代表性的功能化聚烯烃。SFPO可以作为反应性中间体,用于制备具有复杂拓扑结构的功能化聚烯烃(如星型聚合物、梳型聚合物、接枝共聚物)或聚烯烃共价键接枝改性纳米材料;SFPO还可作为功能性添加剂(如增容剂、加工助剂,表面改性剂),用于开发聚烯烃新材料。近年来,研究人员在含硅功能化聚烯烃研究领域取得了系列进展,本文旨在对相关工作进行系统总结,以期引起同行注意并促进相关研究深入发展。

Substituenteneffekte auf die C–C-Bindungsstärke, 8. Standardbildungsenthalpien und Spannungsenthalpien von 1,1,2,2-Tetraethylethylenglykol-dimethylether und D,L-1,2-Dimethyl-1,2-diphenylethylenglykol-dimethylether

Effects of Substituents on the Strength of C - C Bonds, 8¹. - Heats of Formation and Strain of 1,1,2,2-Tetraethylethylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether and D,L .-1,2-Dimethyl-l,2-diphenylethylene Glycol Dimethyl Ether The heats of combustion of the title compounds 1 and 2 were measured calorimetrically with the result (kcal mol ^-1, s. d. in parentheses) ΔH°_c = − 1880.1 (± 0.6) and − 2373.3 (± 1.4). The heat of vaporisation of 1 ΔH^v = 14.3 (± 0.3) and the heat of sublimation of 2 ΔH^sub = 27.2 (± 0.5) were derived from their temperature dependance of the vapor pressure. The latter were determined between 30 and 80°C using a flow method. The resulting standard heats of formation ΔH°_t(g) = −122.4 (± 0.7) and −43.8 (±1.5) for 1 and 2 correspond to a strain enthalpy (_s) of 15.9 and 8.0 kcal mol^-1, respectively. The steric strain of the dimethoxyethanes 1 and 2 is about one fourth lower than the strain of the corresponding dimethylethanes 3 and 4 bearing the same substituents. Thus, a methoxy group causes less steric stress than a methyl group.     

Effect of alkyl chain length in the terminal ester group on mesomorphic properties of new chiral lactic acid derivatives

Two series of new liquid crystalline lactic acid derivatives with a terminal ester group have been synthesised. The effect of this ester unit and the length of its alkyl chain on the mesomorphic and dielectric properties of the compounds exhibiting a broad temperature range of chiral smectic phases have been studied. We found that the mesomorphic behaviour and phase transition temperatures are strongly affected by the molecular architecture. Depending on the alkyl chain length in the terminal ester unit, the studied materials exhibited paraelectric smectic A*, ferroelectric tilted smectic C* and antiferroelectric smectic C_A* phases over a broad temperature range. The physical properties of the compounds have been studied by optical polarising microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, electro-optic measurements, small-angle X-ray scattering and dielectric spectroscopy. Furthermore, the homologues with short terminal alkyl chains showed a very small layer shrinkage at the transition from the orthogonal SmA* to the tilted SmC* phase, which is a characteristic feature of ‘de Vries-type’ behaviour.

Order,disorder, and geometrical information indices of molecules

Structural features of various molecular systems with symmetry of point groups ranging fromC ₁ to the icosahedral symmetry are analyzed in the framework of the model suggested previously for the evaluation of order and disorder in the arrangement of atoms in a molecule based on the equationQ = I -P/3n (whereQ is the index of order, andP is the number of independent coordinates needed to fix ann-atomic molecule in the Cartesian coordinate system). TheQ value depends on various structural parameters of the molecule: the number of atoms in it, the symmetry, the dimensionality, and the number of structural degrees of freedom. The disorder indexP/3n = 1 -Q correlates with Shannon's entropy of information, andQ correlates with negentropy or excess information; this makes it possible to useP/3n as a new geometrical information molecular index that is obtained by a nonprobabilistic method. Analysis of the relationship between order and chaos in molecular systems, as well as of the specific order indexq =Q/n, makes it possible to identify both general and specific features of molecules.Translated from Izvestiya Akadernii Nauk.
