Studies on Molecular Recongnition of (a)-Cyclodextrin with Diphenyl compounds

The cyclodextrins(CDs) are a class of cyclic oligosaccharides made up of six(a), seven(a)or more [a-(1,4)-linked] D-glucopyranose units, and shaped like truncated cones with primary and secondary hydroxyl groups crowning the narrower rim and wider rim respectively. As they have a hydrophobic cavity of appropriate dimension, they can bind with various guest moleculars, such as hydrocarbon, cyclohexane, aromatic compounds, to form inclusion complexes. The cyclodextins inclusion complexation has been considered an ideal model mimicking the enzyme-substrate interaction and a lot of effect has been devoted to it. In this paper, we report our investigation on the inclusion complexation behavior of a-cyclodextrin(a-CD) with diphenyl compounds in order to further explore the molecular recongnition mechanism of 2:1 inclusion complexation of a-CD with aromatic compounds.Figure 1: Possible structures of the inclusion compounds.The inclusion complexation behavior of a-CD with sym-diphenyl-urea, sym-diphenyl-thiourea and diphenyl kotone as respective guest moleclars was studied by ultraviolet spectrometric titrations.The absorption spectral changes observed for the compounds in the absence and presence of a-CD are used to draw the corresponding Benesi-Hildebrand plots and caculate the complex stability constant value (Ks) for the inclusion compounds.The 2:1 inclusion complexations show higher binding constants by cooperative binding of one guest molecular in the closely two hydrophobic cyclodextrin cavites as compared with 1:1 inclusion complexations.The highest value observed for sym-diphenyl-urea could be due to the formation of a hydrogen bond between the carbonyl group and the hydrogen in the hydroxyl group of CD and this is not possible with sym-tiphenyl-thiourea. The lowest value observed for diphenyl kotone indicate the hydrophobic interaction is one of the binding force of cyclodextrin inclusion complex.     

Use of epoxidation and epoxide opening reactions for the synthesis of highly functionalized 1-oxaspiro[4.5]decan-2-ones and related compounds

Epoxidation of ethyl 3-(6-hydroxycyclohex-1-en-1-yl)propanoate (11) provided the syn epoxide 12. By invoking chelation controlled epoxide opening the triol derivatives 13 and 14 or the spiro lactone 25 could be obtained. Elimination of HBr from the bromides 26 and 27 produced the spiro cyclohexenones 28 and 29. Epoxidation of the double bond occurred in a diastereoselective manner to give epoxides 30 and 31, respectively. Treatment of the epoxide 31 with LiBr/AcOH gave the bromo hydrin 38. In a ‘merry go round’ fashion 38 was further functionalized on the cyclohexane ring by elimination, epoxidation, and epoxide opening resulting in the bromo hydrin 43. Other cyclohexane derivatives that were produced during these studies include the cyclohexenone 19 and the cyclohexanediol 23. In addition, enolate azidation of the spiro lactone 29 proceeded in a diastereoselective manner providing the α-azido lactone 32.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and IR Spectroscopic Characterization of 1,6-Hexanediammonium Dihydrogendecavanadate

Summary.  Anhydrous 1,6-hexanediammonium dihydrogendecavanadate ((HdaH₂)₂H₂V₁₀O₂₈, 1) was prepared by reaction of V₂O₅ with 1,6-hexanediamine in aqueous solution. The crystal structure of 1 was determined, and the proton positions in the H₂V₁₀O₂₈ ⁴⁻ anion were calculated by the bond length/bond number method. The protons are bound to the centrosymmetrically oriented μ–OV₃ groups of the decavanadate anion. Based on the analysis of IR spectra of 1 prepared from H₂O and D₂O, the absorption band at 871 cm⁻¹ can be attributed to δ(V–O_b–H) vibrations. Received August 3, 2001.

A novel heterocyclization of 1-acetylenyl-9,10-anthraquinones

I-Acetylenyl-9,10-anthraquinones react with an excess of NH₂NH₂ at 80–115°C to give a mixture of substituted 7H-dibenzo[de,h]quinolin-7-ones and anthra[9,1-cd]-1,2-diazepin-8-ones. The latter compounds undergo reductive contraction of the sevenmembered ring to give the corresponding 7H-dibenzo[de,h]quinolin-7-ones. Bulky substituents in position 2 of the initial acetylenylanthraquinones prevent the formation of the sevenmembered heterocycle. A scheme of the cyclocondensation was proposed.

1H-NMR Investigation of the Binding of 2-Methylnaphthalene to α-Cyclodextrin in D2O Solutions

As -cyclodextrin (-CD) was added to D₂Osolutions of 2-methylnaphthalene, its proton signals shifted to lower fieldsat low concentrations of -CD. At 2.0 × 10^-2 moldm^-3 of -CD, however, a reverse, higher-field shift wasobserved for the H-8 signal, indicating the formation of 1 : 1 and 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. Intrinsic chemicalshift differences of all the protons in 2-methylnaphthalene have beenevaluated for both the 1 : 1 and the 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. These intrinsicchemical shift differences suggest that the first -CD molecule has noselectivity in accommodating one end of uncomplexed 2-methylnaphthalene;-CD binds to a methyl group, as well as a naphthalene ring-end havingno methyl group, to form the 1 : 1 inclusion complex, resulting in theformation of two kinds of 1 : 1 complexes.     

Fluorescent Molecular Recognition and Sensing System of Bis-Dansyl Modified γ-Cyclodextrins

Flexible hosts, 6A,6B-; 6A,6C-; 6A,6D-; and 6A,6E-bis dansylglycine-modified -cyclodextrins (-1, -2, -3, and -4, respectively) have been synthesized as a sensing molecule for organic guests including terpenoids and bile acids. These host compounds show a pure monomer fluorescence whose intensity is decreased or enhanced upon addition of guest species. The value I/I₀, where I and I₀ are fluorescence intensities in the presence and absence of a guest and I is I₀- I, was used as a parameter of sensitivity. These hosts exhibit highly sensitive and selective molecular recognition ability, particularly, for lithochoic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and ursodeoxycholic acid. The behaviors of the appended moieties of these hosts when host–guest complexation occurs are studied by induced circular dichroism (ICD) spectra and fluorescence spectral change on accommodation of a guest. The ICD pattern of these hosts alone or on accommodation of a guest is very similar, indicating that the behavior of the appended moieties are very similar. The guest-induced variations in the fluorescence or ICD intensity suggest that the appended moieties act as a hydrophobic cap that enables the cyclodextrin to form 1 : 1 host–guest complexes.

H, C NMR spectral and single crystal structural studies of toxaphene congeners. Quantum chemical calculations for preferred conformers of 2,5-endo,6-exo,8,9,9,10,10-octachloro-2-bornene and their DFT/GIAO C chemical shifts

The ¹H and ¹³C NMR chemical shifts for six toxaphene congeners: 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10-hexachloro- (1), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,9,9,10,10-heptachloro- (2), 2-exo,3-endo,6-exo,8,9,10,10-heptachloro- (3), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,10-heptachloro- (4), 2-exo,3-endo,5-exo,6-endo,8,9,9,10-octachlorobornane (5) and 2,5-endo,6-exo,8,9,9,10,10-octachloro-2-bornene (6) are reported. Their chemical shift assignments have been obtained by means of Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) Double Quantum Filtered (DQF) ¹H,¹H correlation spectroscopy (COSY), PFG ¹H,¹³C Heteronuclear Multiple Quantum Coherence (HMQC) and PFG ¹H,¹³C Heteronuclear Multiple Bond Correlation (HMBC) experiments. A single crystal X-ray structural analysis was made for compounds 1, 3, 4 and 6. The prevalences of two octachlorobornene rotamers (6a,6b) were elucidated by ab initio MO method and single point DFT/GIAO calculations for ¹³C chemical shifts. Theoretical calculations proved that the single crystal structure of 6 corresponds its most stable conformer in solution.
