Electron transfer from dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene dianion: Attempted synthesis of dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene

When dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene dianion (3) was allowed to react with either iron (III) chloride or ethylene bromide, a one-electron transfer from3 took place readily to give the radical anion11. Further electron transfer from11 did not occur presumably due to the antiaromatic character of dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalene (1) that would have resulted. The radical anion11 underwent further transformation by hydrogen abstraction from the solvent to give 5,10-dihydroindeno[1,2-b]indole (2) and by dimerization to themeso and (R,S) isomers of 5,5,10,10-tetrahydro-10,10-biindeno[1,2-b]indole (4 a and4 b) respectively.

Elektronentransfer von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen-Dianion: Ein Versuch zur Synthese von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen

Zusammenfassung Die Reaktion von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen-Dianion (3) mit Eisen (III) oder Ethylenbromid ergab einen Ein-Elektronentransfer zum Radikalanion11. Ein weiterer Elektronentransfer fand nicht statt, vermutlich wegen des antiaromatischen Charakters von Dibenzo[b,f]-1-azapentalen (1), das dabei entstehen müßte. Das Radikalanion11 ergab unter Wasserstoffentzug aus dem Lösungsmittel 5,10-Dihydroindeno[1,2-b]indol (2), das weiter zummeso- bzw. (R,S)-5,5,10,10-tetrahydro-10,10-biindeno[1,2-b]indol (4 a bzw.4 b) dimerisierte.

     

About a minimax theorem of Matthies,Strang and Christiansen

We give a new minisup theorem for noncompact strategy sets. Our result is of the type of the Matthies-Strang-Christiansen minimax theorem where the hyperplane should be replaced by any closed convex set. As an application, we derive a slight generalization of the Matthies-Strang-Christiansen minimax theorem.     

Triiron and Triruthenium Carbonyl Clusters Bearing Bridging Long Chain Diphosphine and Capping Chalcogenido Ligands

Treatment of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with dpphSe₂ (dpph = 1,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)hexane) in refluxing toluene in the presence of Me₃NO afforded two new compounds, Ru₃(CO)₇(-CO)(₃-Se)(-dpph) (1) and Ru₃(CO)₇(₃-Se)₂(-dpph) (2). A similar reaction of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with dpppeSe₂ (dpppe = 1,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)pentane) gave exclusively Ru₃(CO)₇(₃-Se)₂(-dpppe) (3). Treatment of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with dpphS₂ and dpppeS₂ at 110°C in the presence of Me₃NO afforded Ru₃(CO)₇(₃-S)₂(-dpph) (4) and Ru₃(CO)₇(₃-S)₂(-dpppe) (5), respectively. Reactions of Fe₃(CO)₁₂ with dpphSe₂ and dpppeSe₂, under identical conditions, afforded Fe₃(CO)₇(₃-Se)₂(-dpph) (6) and Fe₃(CO)₇(₃-Se)₂(-dpppe) (7), respectively. Compounds 1–7 were characterized spectroscopically and the molecular structures of compounds 1–4 were determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. The core of 1 contains an equilateral triangle of ruthenium atoms with one capping selenium, one bridging dpph, one doubly bridging carbonyl and seven terminal carbonyl ligands. Complexes 2–4 have a square-pyramidal structure with two metal and two chalcogenide atoms alternating in the basal plane and the third metal atom at the apex of the pyramid, and belong to the family of well-known nido clusters with seven skeletal electron pairs.

Reaktive E = C(p-p)π-Systeme. XLII [1]. Neue Koordinationsverbindungen des 2-(Diisopropylamino)-1-phosphaethins: [{η4-(iPr2NCP)2}Ni{η2-(iPr2NCP)}], [(Ph3P)2Pt{η2-(iPr2NCP)}] und [Co2(CO)6{η2-η2-(iPr2NCP)}]

Reactive E = C(pp)π-Systems. XLII [1]. Novel Coordination Compounds of 2-(Diisopropylamino)-1-phosphaethyne: [{η⁴-(iPr₂NCP)₂}Ni{η²-(iPr₂NCP)}], [(Ph₃P)₂Pt{η²-(iPr₂NCP)}], and [Co₂(CO)₆{η²-μ²-(iPr₂NCP)}] 2-(Diisopropylamino)-phosphaethyne iPr₂N? C?P ( 2 ) reacts with the Ni(0)-complexes [Ni(1,5-cyclooctadiene)₂] and [Ni(CO)₃(1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)], respectively, to give the novel complex [{η⁴-(iPr₂NCP)₂}Ni{η²-(iPr₂NCP)}] ( 5 ), with the 1,3-diphosphacyclobutadiene derivative and 2 (side-on) as π-ligands. The molecular structure of 5 determined by X-ray diffraction on single crystals proves the spin systems and rotational barriers deduced from NMR-data (¹H, ¹³C-, ³¹P). The PC distances of the four-membered ring of 1.817(2) and 1.818(2) Å – as expected – are considerably longer than the PC bond of the η²-coordinated phosphaalkyne 2 [1.671(2) Å]. – In the reactions of 2 with [(Ph₃P)₂Pt(C₂H₄)] or [Co₂(CO)₈] the ligand properties of 2 resemble those of alkynes affording the complexes [(Ph₃P)₂Pt{η²-(iPr₂NCP)}] ( 7 ) with side-on coordinated 2 and [Co₂(CO)₆{η²-μ²-(iPr₂NCP)}] with 2 acting as a 4e donor bridge in quantitative yield. In attempts to prepare copper(I) complexes of the aminophosphaalkyne 2 by reaction with CuCl or CuI the only isolable product formed in reasonable amounts under the influence of air and moisture is the 1 λ³, 3 λ⁵-diphosphetene (iPr₂N) ( 10 ) (isolated yield: ca. 20%). The crystal structure analysis of 10 indicates a strong structural relationship to the diamino-2-phosphaallyl cation [Me(iPr₂N)]⁺ ( 12 ), the 1,3-diphosphacyclobutadiene ligand (iPr₂NCP)₂ in the binuclear complex [{η¹, μ²-(iPr₂NCP)₂}Ni₂(CO)₆] ( 3a ) as well as to the heterocycles (dme)₂LiOE₂′ (E′ = S, 11a ; E′ = Se, 11b ) prepared by Becker et al. [11b, 35].     

RE(CCl_3COO)_3(Phen)_2·nH_2O混配配合物的合成、性质及晶体结构

利用水和乙醇混合溶剂合成了稀土三氯醋酸盐与2份1,10-邻菲绕啉(phen)配合物RE(CCl_3COO)_3(phen)_2·nH_2O(RE=Nd,Sm,n=0;RE=Eu,n=2)的单晶.结构测定表明,Nd(CCl_3COO)_3(phen)_2为三斜晶系,每个三氯醋酸盐均以双齿配位,2个phen亦为双齿配位,故配位单元中钕为10配位;Eu(CCl_3COO)_3(phen)_2·2H_2O为单斜晶系,1个三氯醋酸根在外界,2个三氯醋酸根为单齿配位,2个phen为双齿配位,另有2分配位水,故配位单元中Eu为8配位.     

KINETICS OF MESOPHASE FORMATION OF A LYOTROPIC AROMATIC POLYAMIDE

The kinetics of mesophase formation of a lyotropic aromatic polyamide from isotropic state has been studied by means of depolarized light intensity. Avrami type analysis of the data gives an exponent close to 1, which suggests the nucleation followed by one-dimensional growth. No influence of blending flexible chain from nylon 6 to the aromatic polyamide on the kinetics of mesophase formation was observed.     

Quantum-mechanical exploration of the properties of the sugar rings

Theab initio SCF method is used for computing the main electronic properties of the ribose unit of the nucleic acids. The present study is devoted to the ribose in the C₃-endo,gg conformation. The properties investigated include the distribution of the electronic charges, the electrostatic molecular potential around the four oxygens of the unit, the hydration and the Na⁺ binding schemes studied in the supermolecule approximation. The possibilities of through-water binding of the cation to the sugar are also explored. The predictions of the computation in particular with regard to cation binding to the ribose ring are correlated with recent experimental results.
