THE KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF THE REACTION OF ONIUM CYCLOPENTADIENYLIDES WITH TETRAHALO-p-BENZOQUINONES
1989
Abstract The reaction of triphenylphosphonium cyclopentadienylide (1) with halogen-substituted p-benzoquinones (4) is shown to give a new class of dipolar (zwitterionic) dyes (5) containing phosphorus. The general structure of these molecules has been investigated by a combination of mass spectrometry and multinuclear (7H, 13C and 31P) nmr using the specialist techniques of DEFT spectroscopy, homonuclear (COSY) and heteronuclear 2-D nmr. In addition, stopped-flow (uv/visible) techniques have been used to study the kinetics of the reactions and hence demonstrate that the rate-limiting step is nucleophilic addition of the ylid nucleophile to the quinone, followed by a rapid loss of halide ion…
Di-n-butyltin oxide as a chemical carbon dioxide capturer
2010
Abstract Several synthetic routes to the decakis(di-n-butyltin(IV)) oxocluster, (n-Bu2SnO)6[(n-Bu2SnOCH3)2(CO3)]2 (1), a diorganotin compound previously shown to belong to the class of organotins able to store carbon dioxide, as well as its reactivity toward dimethyl carbonate (DMC), are described. The synthetic route from n-Bu2SnO and DMC was applied for the preparation of the ethoxy analogue of 1, oxocluster 2, using diethyl carbonate. The structural relationship connecting cluster 1, with its precursor PRE-1 isolated from recycling experiments and n-Bu2SnO is discussed. For this purpose, the reactivity of PRE-1 with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid was investigated in order to trace structu…
New heteronuclear gold(I)-platinum(II) complexes with cytotoxic properties: are two metals better than one?
2014
A series of mono- and heterodinuclear gold(I) and platinum(II) complexes with a new bipyridylamine-phosphine ligand have been synthesized and characterized. The X-ray structures of the ligand precursor 4-iodo-N,N-di(pyridin-2-yl)benzamide, and of one gold derivative are reported. All the complexes display antiproliferative properties in vitro in human cancer cells in the range of cisplatin or higher, which appear to correlate with compounds' uptake. Interestingly, studies of the interactions of the compounds with models of DNA indicate different mechanisms of actions with respect to cisplatin. The biological activity study of these complexes provides useful information about the interest of…
Chapter 23. Singlet Order in Heteronuclear Spin Systems
2020
The concept of heteronuclear Long-Lived spin States (LLSs) is introduced. In the simplest case of a pair of heteronuclei, such states are given by the singlet order of the spin pair, which can be efficiently sustained under Zero or Ultra-Low Field (ZULF) conditions. Here we describe two possible ways of detecting long-lived singlet order of heteronuclei: detection at ZULF conditions and NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) detection at high field utilising fast field-cycling. A theoretical description of the underlying spin dynamics is presented for both cases; the discussion is supported by experimental examples of LLSs in 13CH groups. The generality of these phenomena is discussed, as well as…
Linear Dichroism in Photoemission from Oriented Molecules
1993
It is shown that oriented molecules reveal both Linear Dichroism (LD) and Linear Dichroism in the Angular Distribution (LDAD) of photoelectrons, which means a difference between photoelectron currents ejected at a definite angle by linearly polarized light of two mutually perpendicular polarizations. Measurements of LD and LDAD enable one to investigate the orientation of molecules and to make an essential step towards the complete quantummechanical experiment. As an example, LDAD in a model case of oriented heteronuclear diatomic molecules is presented.
Application of 29Si Homonuclear and 1H−29Si Heteronuclear NMR Correlation to Structural Studies of Calcium Silicate Hydrates
2004
Structural characterization of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) is of major importance, as it is the main constituent of Portland cement and is responsible for its principal cohesion and durability...
Water‐Soluble Heteronuclear [NaCu II 6 ] Metallomacrocyclic Sandwich Complexes: Synthesis, Structure, Properties and In Vitro Biological Studies
2014
The water-soluble heteronuclear metallomacrocyclic sandwich clusters [NaCu6(hpnbpda)3(OH)3(OH2)3](NO3)·4H2O (1), [NaCu6(hpnbpda)3(OH)3(OH2)3](ClO4) (2), and [NaCu6(hpnbpda)3(OH)3(OH2)3](PF6) (3) [H3hpnbpda = N,N′-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)-2-hydroxy-1,3-propanediamine-N,N′-diacetic acid] have been synthesized in methanol at room temperature and fully characterized using several analytical techniques including single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecular architecture of complex 1 is built from the template assembly of three dinuclear [Cu2(hpnbpda)]+ fragments through their weak oxophillic interactions with a central sodium(I) cation. A close analysis of the single-crystal X-ray structure reveal…
Six-coordinate CoIII and four-coordinate MII (M = Co, Zn) mixed-valence dimers supported by a deprotonated pyridine amide ligand: magnetism of a CoII…
2009
Using a pyridine amide ligand 4-methyl-2-{N-(2-pyridyl)carbamoyl}pyridine (HL), in its deprotonated form, binuclear mixed-valence homonuclear bimetallic complexes [CoIII,II2(L)3(X)]X·S [X = Cl (1); X = Br, S = CH3OH (2)] and heteronuclear bimetallic complex [CoIIIZnII(L)3(Cl)]Cl·CH3OH·5H2O (3) have been synthesized. Structural analysis revealed that trivalent cobalt is in distorted octahedral and bivalent cobalt/zinc is in distorted tetrahedral environment. Three L(−) ligands provide six-coordination by utilizing three pyridine amide units (pyridine N and amide N donor set) in a facial mode, which in turn places three 4-methylpyridine nitrogens to coordinate to another metal center, which c…
A New Major Triterpene Saponin from the Roots of Cucurbita foetidissima
2000
Foetidissimoside B (1), a novel triterpene saponin, was isolated from the roots of Cucurbita foetidissima. Based on spectroscopic data, especially direct and long-range heteronuclear 2D NMR analysis and on chemical transformations, the structure of 1 was elucidated as 3-O-beta-D-glucuronopyranosyl-echinocystic acid 28-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-beta-D-xylopyranosyl(1-->3)-[beta- D-xylopyranosyl (1-->4)]-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->2)-alpha-L-arabinopyranoside . Compound 1 did not show any ability to potentiate in vitro cisplatin cytotoxicity in a human colon cancer cell line.
