The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by full matrix least-squares methods to a finalR=0.047 for 1763 independent reflections withF ₀>3 (F ₀) The molecule is based on a tetracyclic structure consisting of two five-membered, one six-membered, and one seven-membered ring with various conformations.     

An analysis of the complex molecular orbitals method

Numerical results for the ground state of the HN ₂ ⁺ and HCO⁺ molecular ions at their near equilibrium geometry, obtained by the complex molecular orbitals (CMO) method in the extended basis set, are reported. The CMO wavefunction of the HN ₂ ⁺ ion is compared with the CI wavefunction obtained in the same basis set. This reveals the nature of approximations inherent in the CMO method. A peculiar feature of the occupation numbers of the CMO natural orbitals is also explained.Alexander von Humboldt Fellow. On leave from the Institute Rudjer Bokovi, Zagreb, Croatia, Yugoslavia.

Biocatalysis and biorecognition in nonaqueous media. Some perspectives in analytical biochemistry

Biocatalysis and, to a lesser extent, biorecognition in non-aqueous media (including organic solvents as well as supercritical fluids and gases) constitute at present an exciting research area which has already demonstrated its biotechnological potential in numerous, varied applications. Less attention, however, has been paid to its analytical possibilities, even though many advantages have been postulated and a wide range of poorly water-soluble analytes are present in samples (or waste materials) from food and drink, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, military and other industries. The main approaches, developed in recent years to exploit the use of enzymes, antibodies or antibody mimics in water-restricted environments for analytical purposes, as well as possible future directions are briefly discussed.     

Structure of palladium quinoline-8-selenolate Pd(C9H6NSe)2

The molecular and crystal structure of palladium quinoline-8-selenolate Pd(C₉H₆NSe)₂ has been determined by X-ray structural analysis. The structures of the five-membered metallocycles of palladium 8-hydroxy-, 8-mercapto-, and 8-hydroselenoquinolinates of one type are compared. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 396–402, March, 2006.     

Direct calculation of ionization potentials of closed-shell atoms and molecules

Vertical ionization potentials, electron affinities and information about quasi-particles can be obtained by using the technique of the single-particle propagator. The expansion of the self-energy part up to third order perturbation theory can be evaluated numerically, but does not lead, in most cases, to satisfying results. A theoretical and numerical analysis of the diagrammatic expansion of the self-energy part requires the introduction of a renormalized interaction and renormalized hole and particle lines.     

Reaction of cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide with azobenzene. Synthesis and molecular and crystal structure of the binuclear complex [C5H5(THF)Lu(μ−η2:η2−PhN—NPh)]2(THF)2 and its dynamic behavior in solution

The reaction of the cyclopentadienyllutetium anthracenide, C₅H₅Lu(C₁₄H₁₀)²⁻(THF)₂ (1), with azobenzene yielded the [C₅H₅(THF)Lu(μ−η²:η²−PhN—NPh)]₂(THF)₂ (2) binuclear complex. The structure of the reaction product was established by X-ray structural analysis. The dynamic behavior of complex2 in a THF-d₈ solution was studied by¹H NMR spectroscopy in the temperature range of 265–330 K. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Conformational analysis of 5,6-dihydropyrimidine and its derivatives

The equilibrium geometry and inversion barriers of 5,6-dihydropyrimidine, 6,7-dihydroazolopyrimidines with node nitrogen atoms and their alkyl (Me, Et, Prⁱ, Bu^t) and phenyl derivatives were calculated using a molecular mechanics approach. Annelation with azole cycles and the introduction of substituents have a slight effect on the equilibrium conformation of the dihydrocycle (distorted sofa). Alkyl substutuents at saturated carbons have an essentially equatorial orientation in 5,6-dihydropyridimine derivatives and are axial in the annelated analogs. On the other hand, the equatorial conformers are more stable in phenyl derivatives of dihydroazolopyrimidines. Factors determining the relative stability of conformers were analyzed.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 487–491, March, 1995.
