A study of methylation of inorganic tin by iodomethane in an aquatic environment with 13C carbon isotope tracer technique

The methylation of tin(II) [Sn(II)] by iodomethane (CH₃I) under environmental conditions has been further demonstrated by a ¹³C carbon isotope tracer method. Methylation products are mainly monomethyltin, and very small amounts of dimethyltin. The reaction of Sn(II) and CH₃I was investigated at pH 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and salinity (S) 8, 15, 22, 28, 35%; it has been found the reaction was affected by pH and salinity, the tin methylation activity being highest at about pH 6 and S = 28% . The methylation reaction is first-order for both CH₃I and Sn(II), and the rate equation has been obtained as follows: .

Multiple Reaction Pathways in Rhodium‐Catalyzed Hydrosilylations of Ketones

A detailed density functional theory (DFT) computational study (using the BP86/SV(P) and B3LYP/TZVP//BP86/SV(P) level of theory) of the rhodium‐catalyzed hydrosilylation of ketones has shown three mechanistic pathways to be viable. They all involve the generation of a cationic complex [L_nRh^I]⁺ stabilized by the coordination of two ketone molecules and the subsequent oxidative addition of the silane, which results in the Rh–silyl intermediates [L_nRh^III(H)SiHMe₂]⁺. However, they differ in the following reaction steps: in two of them, insertion of the ketone into the Rh? Si bond occurs, as previously proposed by Ojima et al., or into the Si? H bond, as proposed by Chan et al. for dihydrosilanes. The latter in particular is characterized by a very high activation barrier associated with the insertion of the ketone into the Si? H bond, thereby making a new, third mechanistic pathway that involves the formation of a silylene intermediate more likely. This “silylene mechanism” was found to have the lowest activation barrier for the rate‐determining step, the migration of a rhodium‐bonded hydride to the ketone that is coordinated to the silylene ligand. This explains the previously reported rate enhancement for R₂SiH₂ compared to R₃SiH as well as the inverse kinetic isotope effect (KIE) observed experimentally for the overall catalytic cycle because deuterium prefers to be located in the stronger bond, that is, C? D versus M? D.     

Synthesis,characterization, thermal and redox behavior,and biological activity of Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes containing pyridoxine and imidazole moieties

Several mixed ligand complexes [M(II)(PN)(B)] [M(II) = Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II)] derived from pyridoxine (PN) and imidazoles (B), namely imidazole (him), benzimidazole (bim), histamine (hist), and L-histidine (his), were synthesized. The complexes are characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-Vis ¹H NMR, and ESR spectroscopy. In [M(II)(PN)B], the monovalent anion of PN is bidentate to M(II) (–O, –OH), him, bim monodentate (–N), hist bidentate (–N, –N), and his tridentate (–O, –N, –N). Magnetic moment studies showed that the Ni(II) complexes and Cu(II)–PN–his have octahedral configuration while the other Cu(II) complexes have distorted tetrahedral geometry. The g _∥/A _∥ values calculated from the X-band ESR spectra of Cu(II) complexes in DMSO at 300 and 77 K supports the geometry. The thermal behavior (TG/DTA) of the synthesized complexes indicates the presence of lattice as well as coordinated water in the complexes. The in vitro biological activity of the mixed ligand complexes was tested against common bacteria, yeast, and fungi. The results in comparison with the control indicate that most of the complexes exhibit higher biological activities. The oxidative DNA cleavage studies of the mixed ligand complexes were performed using gel electrophoresis.

Aggregation behavior of block polyethers with branched structure at air/water surface

The block polyethers with various branch structure, such as TEPA[(PO)₃₆(EO)₁₀₀]₇, TEPA[(PO)₃₆(EO)₁₀₀(PO)₃₆]₇, and TEPA[(PO)₃₆(EO)₁₀₀(PO)₅₆]₇ were synthesized. Moreover, the aggregation behavior was investigated via the measurements of equilibrium surface tension, dynamic surface tension, and surface dilational viscoelasticity, in order to probe the effect of the block structure on the property of the branched block polyethers. The surface tension results show that the efficiency and effectiveness of the block polyethers to lower surface tension increase with the increase of the PO group numbers. The maximum surface excess concentration (Γ_max) values and the minimum occupied area per molecule at the air/water interface (A_min) values of the branched block polyethers obtained from Gibbs adsorption equations increase and decrease with the increases of the PO group numbers, respectively. The dynamic parameters n and t^* representing the diffusion speed of the polyether molecules from bulky solution to the subsurface and from the subsurface to the air/water surface are obtained according to the equation proposed by Rosen. The results show that the n values firstly increase and then decrease and t^* values decrease with the increase of the polyether concentrations. The results of surface dilational viscoelasticity show that the dilational modulus of TEPA[(PO)₃₆(EO)₁₀₀(PO)₅₆]₇ is the largest among the three block copolymers at the low concentration (<1 mg L⁻¹) but that of TEPA[(PO)₃₆(EO)₁₀₀]₇ is the largest at the high concentration (>1 mg L⁻¹).

The [Au(CH3SO3)4]– Anion in the Crystal Structures of M[Au(CH3SO3)4] (M = Li,Na, Rb)

The reactions of Au(OH)₃, M₂CO₃ (M = Li, Na, Rb), and methanesulfonic acid at elevated temperatures in sealed glass ampoules lead to single crystals of M[Au(CH₃SO₃)₄] (M = Li, Na, Rb). In the crystal structures of Li[Au(CH₃SO₃)₄] (tetragonal, I$\bar{4}$ , Z = 2,a = 938.64(2) pm, c = 917.01(3) pm, V = 807.93(4) ų) and Rb[Au(CH₃SO₃)₄] (tetragonal, P$\bar{4}$ 2₁c, Z = 2, a = 946.7(1) pm,c = 889.9(1) pm, V = 797.6(2) ų) the complex aurate anions are linked by the M⁺ ions in three dimensions. Contrastingly, in the structure of Na[Au(CH₃SO₃)₄] (triclinic, P$\bar{4}$ , Z = 1, a = 540.04(2) pm,b = 863.75(2) pm, c = 973.29(3) pm, α = 72.694(2)°, β = 75.605(2)°, γ = 77.687(2)°, V = 415.05(2) ų) the complex anions are connected into layers that are further connected by weak hydrogen bonds. The thermal decomposition of Li[Au(CH₃SO₃)₄] was monitored up to 500 °C and leads in a multi‐step process to elemental gold and Li₂SO₄.
