Supramolecular hydrogen-bonding tautomeric sulfonamido-phosphinamides: a perfect P-chirogenic memory

2011

P-chirogenic, supramolecular hydrogen-bonding C1-symmetrical sulfonamido–phosphinamides (METAMORPhos) have been successfully prepared. They were all found to possess a characteristic prototropic equilibrium between the PIII and the PV tautomers that is slow on the NMR spectroscopic timescale. Despite the dynamic and reversible protonation of the P centre, the P-chirogenic information was found to be retained in the tautomerization process, even in a protic solvent environment. Several strategies to access the corresponding enantiopure compounds were investigated, such as diastereoselective crystallization, or enantioselective synthesis. It was possible to resolve such a class of chiral liga…

First synthesis of the chiral mixed O/S ligands, 1,2-sulfinyl thiols: application as chiral proton sources in enantioselective protonations of enolat…

2000

Abstract A suitable method for the preparation of the chiral mixed O/S ligands 1,2-sulfinyl thiols is described. These compounds have then been used as a chiral proton source in the enantioselective protonation of 2-methyl tetralone enolate and the results are compared with those obtained from the analogous alcohols. A theoretical model is proposed to explain the different behaviors exhibited in the protonation reaction for each of these proton sources. Configurational assignments for the new chiral thiols have been carried out by means of X-ray analysis.

Asymmetric synthesis of (−)-pseudoephedrine from (2S,3S)-3-phenyloxiran-2-ylmethanol. Stereospecific interchange of amino and alcohol functions

2001

Abstract A ring-opening reaction of N -methylaziridines with Boc 2 O/NaI has been applied to the asymmetric synthesis of pseudoephedrine. 3-Methylamino-3-phenyl-1,2-propanediol 1 , derived from (2 S ,3 S )-3-phenyloxiran-2-ylmethanol, was converted into the oxazolidin-2-one 4 , a precursor of pseudoephedrine. The reaction occurs with a stereospecific interchange of amino and alcohol functions.

Repetitive‐Synthesis of Bulky Dendrimers – A Reversibly Photoactive Dendrimer with Six Azobenzene Side Chains

1993

Dendrimers with bulky repeating units containing up to 43 benzene rings (in 9) have been obtained by using a repetitive divergent synthetic strategy (three generations). The new functional dendrimer 13 containing six azobenzene units at the periphery was synthesized allowing a reversible switching of the shape and size of the molecule upon irradiation. An X-ray structure analysis of the dendritic molecule 3a shows the inclusion of acetonitrile.

Copper(I) Complexes of Bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl) Ether:  Synthesis, Reactivity, and Theoretical Calculations

2007

The tricoordinated cationic Cu-I complex [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(kappa(1)-P-DPEphos)][BF4] (1) (DPEphos = bis(2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl) ether) containing a dangling phosphorus center was synthesized from the reaction of [Cu(CH3CN)(4)][BF4] with DPEphos in a 1:2 molar ratio in dichloromethane. When complex 1 is treated with MnO2, elemental sulfur, or selenium, the uncoordinated phosphorus atom undergoes oxidation to form a PE bond resulting in the formation of complexes of the type [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(kappa(2)-P,E-DPEphos-E)][BF4] (2, E = O; 3, E = S; 4, E = Se) containing a Cu-E bond. The zigzag polymeric Cu-I complex [Cu(kappa(2)-P,P'-DPEphos)(mu-4,4'-bpy)](n)[BF4](n) (5) was …

Versatile wet-chemical synthesis of non-agglomerated CaCO3 vaterite nanoparticles.

2011

Calcium carbonate (vaterite) nanoparticles of 20-60 nm size were obtained without stabilizing tensides by heating a dispersion of calcium bicarbonate (CaHCO(3)) in ethylene glycol for 30 minutes at 40 to 100 °C.

A novel putative insect chitinase with multiple catalytic domains: hormonal regulation during metamorphosis

2002

0264-6021 (Print) Journal Article Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't; We have used differential display to identify genes that are regulated by juvenile hormone in the epidermis of the beetle Tenebrio molitor. One of the genes encodes T. molitor chitinase 5 (TmChit5), a chitinase possessing an unusual structure. Sequence analysis of TmChit5 identified five 'chitinase units' of approx. 480 amino acids with similarity to chitinase family 18. These units are separated by less conserved regions containing putative PEST (rich in proline, glutamic acid, serine and threonine) sequences, putative chitin-binding domains and mucin domains. Northern-blot analysis identified a single transcript of approx…

3D integral imaging display by smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion (SPOC).

2010

Previously, we reported a digital technique for formation of real, non-distorted, orthoscopic integral images by direct pickup. However the technique was constrained to the case of symmetric image capture and display systems. Here, we report a more general algorithm which allows the pseudoscopic to orthoscopic transformation with full control over the display parameters so that one can generate a set of synthetic elemental images that suits the characteristics of the Integral-Imaging monitor and permits control over the depth and size of the reconstructed 3D scene.

Organocatalytic Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Hydroxyketones through a Friedel−Crafts Reaction of Naphthols and Activated Phenols with Aryl- and Al…

2016

[EN] An efficient organocatalytic asymmetric synthesis of alpha-hydroxyketones has been developed. Quinine-derived thiourea catalyzed the enantioselective Friedel Crafts alkylation of naphthols and activated phenols with aryl- and alkylglyoxal hydrates, providing the corresponding chiral alpha-hydroxyketones with high yields (up to 97%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee).
