Experimental and theoretical studies of Diels-Alder dimerization of 1,2,3,4,5-pentachlorocyclopentadiene and of Diels-Alder cycloaddition of polychlorinated cyclopentadienes to norbornadiene

Diels-Alder cyclodimerization of 1,2,3,4,5-pentachlorocyclopentadiene (1) affords 2a as the exclusive reaction product. Diels-Alder cycloaddition of 1 to norbornadiene also proceeds stereoselectively to produce a single [4+2] cycloadduct, 4c. The structures of 2a and 4c were established unequivocally via application of single crystal X-ray crystallographic techniques. The origins of the observed diastereofacial selectivity in each of these cycloaddition processes have been investigated by application of semiempirical (AM1 Hamiltonian) and ab initio (Hartree-Fock 3-21G*) calculations. The computational results thereby obtained, which are based upon consideration of the kinetically favored transition state for each of the two cycloaddition reactions studied, are consistent with experiment. These semiempirical and ab initio methods also have been used to investigate the mechanisms of the Diels-Alder reactions that have been used to prepare aldrin and isodrin (7 and 8, respectively). The results thereby obtained suggest that isodrin formation via Diels-Alder cycloaddition of cyclopentadiene to 1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloronorbornadiene proceeds with kinetic control of product stereochemistry.

Gas chromatographic properties of two thermotropic Poly(L-glutamates) with long alkyl side chains

Summary Comparative gas chromatographic properties of two thermotropic Poly(L-glutamates) with long alkyl side chains (10 and 16 carbons called Poly 10 and Poly 16 respectively) are studied.Their thermal properties were established with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and gas chromatography. They present a cholesteric liquid crystal in a large temperature range.The chromatographic separation abilities of the two polymers in the liquid crystal state were studied using capillary glass columns. Interesting analytical performances were obtained in different fields: isomeric separation of alkanes, aromatics, polyaromatics, volatile aroma compounds and cis and trans isomers. Some differences were noticed in their behaviours; 2 and 3-methyloctane and xylene isomers are separated only on Poly 10 while limonene and eucalyptol are separated only on Poly 16.     

Transannular reactions of two parallel 1,3-butadiynes: syntheses,structures, and reactions of 1-azacyclotetradeca-3,5,10,12-tetrayne derivatives

The synthesis of 1-alkyl and 1-aryl-1-azacyclotetradeca-3,5,10,12-tetraynes was achieved in a stepwise approach. The key intermediate was 1,13-dibromotrideca-2,4,9,11-tetrayne (18). Reaction with methyl- (19 a), ethyl- (19 b), isopropyl- (19 c), n-butyl- (19 d), and tert-butylamine (19 e) as well as aniline (19 f) and p-methoxyaniline (19 g) gave the corresponding 14-membered tetraynes 20 a-20 g. The ring inversion process of 20 b was studied by variable temperature (1)H NMR spectroscopy. From these measurements a value of 10.6 kcal mol(-1) was calculated for DeltaG(not equal). X-ray investigations on single crystals of 20 b, 20 c, and 20 f revealed the axial position for the substituent at each nitrogen atom. For 20 b we encountered the chair conformation, for 20 c both chair and boat conformations, and for 20 f the boat conformation in the solid state. The reaction of 20 c with concentrated HCl in ethanol yielded 2,10-dichloro-6-isopropyl-6-azatricyclo[9.3.0.0(4,8)]tetradeca-1(11),2,4(8),9-tetraene (25 c). Compound 25 c was oxidized by 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to 27 c. The structure of the latter was confirmed by X-ray investigations. The reaction of 20 c in aqueous HCl lead to the formation of 10-chloro-2-isopropyl-1,3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-2H-benzo[g]isoquinolin-9-one (37 c). The structure of 37 c was verified by X-ray studies on single crystals.

Ein neues Erdalkalimetall-Oxoplatinat-Cuprat Ca3,5Cu0,5PtO6

A new Alkaline-Earth Platinum Copper Oxide: Ca_3.5Cu_0.5PtO₆ Ca_3.5Cu_0.5PtO₆ was prepared and investigated by single crystal X-ray work. (Space group C? C12/m1; a = 9.0743; b = 9.2527; c = 6.4840 Å; β = 91.448°; Z = 4). The crystal structure of the previously unknown compound is closely related to the structure of Sr₃PtCuO₆ and Sr₃IrCuO₆ as well as the rhombohedral phases M₄PtO₆ (M = Ba, Sr, Ca). Typical features of the crystal chemistry are isolated chains of PtO₆ octahedra, alternately allyed by square CuO₄ polygones and trigonal prisms of O^2? around Ca²⁺.     

Thioureato-verbrückte zweikernige Komplexe der Lanthanoide Darstellung und Struktur von [{PhC(NPh)NC(S)NEt2}{Et2NC(S)NH}LnBr(thf)]2 (Ln = Gd,Sm)

Thioureato Brigded Binuclear Complexes of the Lanthanides Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [{PhC(NPh)NC(S)NEt₂}{Et₂NC(S)NH}LnBr(thf)]₂ (Ln = Gd, Sm) The reaction of potassium-N-(diethylaminothiocarbonyl)-N′-phenyl-benzamidinat with LnBr₃ (Ln = Gd, Sm) leads to the formation of the binuclear complexes [{PhC(NPh)NC(S)NEt₂}{Et₂NC(S)N}LnBr(thf)]₂} (Ln = Gd 1 , Sm 2 ). The two bridging thiureatoligands are probably built during the reaction of potassium with the starting ligand. Coordination by one N-(diethylaminothiocarbonyl)-N′-phenylbenzamidinato-ligand, one Br-ion and one THF-ligand leads to square antiprismatic coordination of the lanthanoids. The structures of both compounds were characterized by X-ray analysis ( 1 : P1 (Nr.2), Z = 1, a = 12,006(4) Å, b = 12,245(4) Å, c = 13,612(3) Å, α = 70,55(3)°, β = 68,21(3)°, γ = 81,31(3)° 2 : P1 (Nr.2), Z = 1, a = 11,803(3) Å, b = 12,344(5) Å, c = 12,797(8) Å, α = 103,07(5)°, β = 101,76(3)°, γ = 114,13(3)°)     

十二钼磷酸及其盐在氢气中热分解过程的研究

本文以气相色谱为主要手段,配合红外光谱、X—射线粉末衍射分析及电子顺磁共振技术,研究了十二钼磷酸及其盐在氢气中的还原热稳定性。从对上述化合物在氢气中热解过程的气相产物和各中间固相产物的分析可知,在实验的温度范围内(40～640℃),这些化合物的热分解过程通常分为三或四个阶段。实验发现,Keggin阴离子热解以及Mo~(6 )被还原的难易程度,取决于与Keggin阴离子结合的阳离子的种类。在同一实验条件下,如果阳离子本身难以还原,那么,Keggin阴离子的破坏以及Keggin阴离子中Mo~(6 )还原为金属相的过程,都将变得困难。     

Conformational Studies on Polytripeptides as a Model of Collagen

To study the role of glycine residues in stabilizing the collagen triple helix, the glycine residues in the polytripeptide (Pro-Ala-Gly)_n were partially replaced by alanine. The proline content was kept constant. The stability of the helical conformation of these polypeptides was studied by IR- and X-ray measurements in the solid state and by ORD, CD and viscometry in solution. The renaturation was followed as a function of time. All the polytripeptides studied, with the exception of (-Pro-Ala-Ala-)_n attained the polyproline II conformation. However the stability decreased with increasing alanine content. Obviously the molecules of (-Pro-Ala-Gly-) are highly associated by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and one may therefore suppose that a triple-stranded helix aggregation occurs. The results of the refolding process show that the stability of the helices seems to also affect the refolding rate in terms of the optical rotation, Two transitions appeared: the first one is responsible for a rapid reversible change in conformation and the second one for a further slow and irreversible change in the hydrodynamic shape. The latter seems to be due to the partial helical nature, leading to higher chain mobility.     

Synthesis, crystal structure of bis(arylamido)lanthanide methyl complexes and their catalytic behavior for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate

Reactions of [N(C₆H₃i-Pr₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)]₂LnCl(THF) (Ln=Nd, Yb) with two equivalents of MeLi in a mixture solution of toluene and Et₂O gave [N(C₆H₃i-Pr₂-2,6)(SiMe₃)]₂LnCH₃(μ-CH₃)Li(THF)₃·PhCH₃ (Ln=Nd (1), Yb (2)) in good isolated yields as crystalline solids. The single-crystal structural analysis of 2 revealed that the coordination geometry of ytterbium ion is best described as a distorted pseudo-tetrahedron. Both 1 and 2 are active for the polymerization of methyl methacrylate to give syndiotactic-rich and high molecular weight polymers (M_n>10⁴) with relatively narrow molecular weight distributions (M_w/M_n<2).
