A new oxovanadium(IV)–cucurbit[6]uril complex: Properties and potential for confined heterogeneous catalytic oxidation reactions

This work presents a new oxovanadium(IV)–cucurbit[6]uril complex, which combines the catalytic properties of the metal ion with the size-excluding properties of the macrocycle cavity. In this coordination compound, the VO²⁺${\text{VO}}^{2+}$ ions are coordinated to the oxygen atoms located at the rim of the macrocycle in slightly distorted square-pyramidal configurations, which are in fact _C2v$C_{2v}$ symmetries. This combination results in a size-selective heterogeneous catalyst, which is able to oxidize linear alkanes like n-pentane at room temperature, but not styrene, cyclohexane or z-cyclooctene, which are too big to enter the cucurbit[6]uril cavity. The results presented here contribute to understanding the mechanism of alkane catalytic oxidation by oxovanadium(IV) complexes.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic enantioseparation of β-amino acids using a long-tethered (+)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid-based chiral stationary phase

Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic methods were developed for the separation of enantiomers of eleven unnatural β²-amino acids on a new chiral stationary phase, using the 11-methylene-unit spacer of aminoundecylsilica gel for the bonding of (+)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxylic acid as selector. The nature and concentration of the acidic and organic modifiers, the pH, the mobile phase composition, and the structures of the analytes substantially influenced the retention and resolution. Separations were carried out at constant mobile phase compositions in the temperature range 7–40 °C and the changes in enthalpy, Δ(ΔH°), entropy, Δ(ΔS°), and free energy, Δ(ΔG°) were calculated. The elution sequence was determined in some cases: the S enantiomers eluted before the R enantiomers.     

A New Diiminopyridyl Cobalt Complex [CoCl_2L]（L=2,6-Bis（N,N＇-bis（2,6-diisopropyl-4-（2,3-dimethyoxylbenzoylamide）phenylimino））pyridine）

The reaction of CoCl2·6H2O with 2,6-bis(N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropyl-4-(2,3-dimethy-oxyl-benzoylamide)phenylimino))pyridine(L) afforded the complex [CoCl2L],which was fully characterized by elemental analysis,UV-vis,IR spectroscopy,fluorescence,and X-ray diffraction analysis.The compound is of triclinic system,space group P1 with a = 13.058(3),b = 13.798(3),c = 16.695(3) ,α = 98.191(3),β = 102.792(3),γ = 101.820(3)°,V = 2815.0(9) 3,Z = 2,F(000) = 1122,μ = 0.45 mm-1,R = 0.061 and wR = 0.1349 for 9842 observed reflections(Ⅰ 2σ(Ⅰ)).The Co(Ⅱ) center adopts a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry.The extended structure shows a one-dimensional zigzag double chain linked by hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions.     

15N and 13C NMR chemical shifts of 6‐(fluoro,chloro, bromo,and iodo)purine 2′‐deoxynucleosides: measurements and calculations

The ¹⁵N and ¹³C chemical shifts of 6‐(fluoro, chloro, bromo, and iodo)purine 2′‐deoxynucleoside derivatives in deuterated chloroform were measured. The ¹⁵N chemical shifts were determined by the ¹H? ¹⁵N HMBC method, and complete ¹⁵N chemical‐shift assignments were made with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Inclusion of solvation effects significantly improved the precision of the calculations of ¹⁵N chemical shifts. Halogen‐substitution effects on the ¹⁵N and ¹³C chemical shifts of purine rings are discussed in the context of DFT results. The experimental coupling constants for ¹⁹F interacting with ¹⁵N and ¹³C of the 6‐fluoropurine 2‐deoxynuleoside are compared with those from DFT calculations.

Density functional theory and RRKM calculations of decompositions of the metastable E‐2,4‐pentadienal molecular ions

The potential energy profiles for the fragmentations that lead to [C₅H₅O]⁺ and [C₄H₆]^+? ions from the molecular ions [C₅H₆O]^+? of E‐2,4‐pentadienal were obtained from calculations at the UB3LYP/6‐311G + + (3df,3pd)//UB3LYP/6‐31G(d,p) level of theory. Kinetic barriers and harmonic frequencies obtained by the density functional method were then employed in Rice–Ramsperger–Kassel–Marcus calculations of individual rate coefficients for a large number of reaction steps. The pre‐equilibrium and rate‐controlling step approximations were applied to different regions of the complex potential energy surface, allowing the overall rate of decomposition to be calculated and discriminated between three rival pathways: C? H bond cleavage, decarbonylation and cyclization. These processes should have to compete for an equilibrated mixture of four conformers of the E‐2,4‐pentadienal ions. The direct dissociation, however, can only become important in the high‐energy regime. In contrast, loss of CO and cyclization are observable processes in the metastable kinetic window. The former involves a slow 1,2‐hydrogen shift from the carbonyl group that is immediately followed by the formation of an ion‐neutral complex which, in turn, decomposes rapidly to the s‐trans‐1,3‐butadiene ion [C₄H₆]^+?. The predominating metastable channel is the second one, that is, a multi‐step ring closure which starts with a rate‐limiting cis—trans isomerization. This process yields a mixture of interconverting pyran ions that dissociates to the pyrylium ions [C₅H₅O]⁺. These results can be used to rationalize the CID mass spectrum of E‐2,4‐pentadienal in a low‐energy regime. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

ACE applied to the quantitative characterization of benzo‐18‐crown‐6‐ether binding with alkali metal ions in a methanol–water solvent system

ACE was applied to the quantitative evaluation of noncovalent binding interactions between benzo‐18‐crown‐6‐ether (B18C6) and several alkali metal ions, Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺ and Cs⁺, in a mixed binary solvent system, methanol–water (50/50 v/v). The apparent binding (stability) constants (K_b) of B18C6–alkali metal ion complexes in the hydro‐organic medium above were determined from the dependence of the effective electrophoretic mobility of B18C6 on the concentration of alkali metal ions in the BGE using a nonlinear regression analysis. Before regression analysis, the mobilities measured by ACE at ambient temperature and variable ionic strength of the BGE were corrected by a new procedure to the reference temperature, 25°C, and the constant ionic strength, 10 mM . In the 50% v/v methanol–water solvent system, like in pure methanol, B18C6 formed the strongest complex with potassium ion (log K_b=2.89±0.17), the weakest complex with cesium ion (log K_b=2.04±0.20), and no complexation was observed between B18C6 and the lithium ion. In the mixed methanol–water solvent system, the binding constants of the complexes above were found to be about two orders lower than in methanol and about one order higher than in water.     

A Novel and Efficient One‐Pot Synthesis of 2‐Aminopyrimidinones and Their Self‐Assembly

A three‐component reaction of benzaldehyde derivatives, methyl cyanoacetate, and guanidinium carbonate affords 2‐amino‐4‐aryl‐1,6‐dihydro‐6‐oxopyrimidine‐5‐carbonitriles and the four‐component reaction of benzaldehyde derivatives, methyl cyanoacetate, and guanidinium hydrochloride in the presence of piperidine leads to piperidinium salts of pyrimidinones. X‐ray crystallography data confirm self‐assembly and H‐bonding in these compounds.     

Quantum control implemented as combinatorial optimization

Optimal control theory provides a general means for designing controls to manipulate quantum phenomena. Traditional implementation requires solving coupled nonlinear equations to obtain the optimal control solution, whereas this work introduces a combinatorial quantum control (CQC) algorithm to avoid this complexity. The CQC technique uses a predetermined toolkit of small time step propagators in conjunction with combinatorial optimization to identify a proper sequence for the toolkit members. Results indicate that the CQC technique exhibits invariance of search effort to the number of system states and very favorable scaling upon comparison to a standard gradient algorithm, taking into consideration that CQC is easily parallelizable. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A new force field for simulating phosphatidylcholine bilayers

A new force field for the simulation of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) in the liquid‐crystalline, fluid phase at zero surface tension is presented. The structure of the bilayer with the area per lipid (0.629 nm²; experiment 0.629–0.64 nm²), the volume per lipid (1.226 nm³; experiment 1.229–1.232 nm³), and the ordering of the palmitoyl chains (order parameters) are all in very good agreement with experiment. Experimental electron density profiles are well reproduced in particular with regard to the penetration of water into the bilayer. The force field was further validated by simulating the spontaneous assembly of DPPC into a bilayer in water. Notably, the timescale on which membrane sealing was observed using this model appears closer to the timescales for membrane resealing suggested by electroporation experiments than previous simulations using existing models. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
