2003
A series of potentially biologically active fluorinated uracil derivatives has been prepared in three steps from oxazolines and fluorinated nitriles with good chemical yields.
Racemattrennung, Kristallstruktur und histaminartige Wirkung von 4-[1-(2-Aminoethylthio)ethyl]-5-methylimidazol
1983
Es wird die Racemattrennung von 4-[1-(2-Aminoethylthio)ethyl]-5-methylimidazol (1) mittels optisch aktiver Di-O-(p-toluoyl)weinsaure sowie die histaminartige Wirksamkeit der Enantiomeren beschrieben. Von (+)-1 · 2HCl · H2O wurde die Kristallstruktur bestimmt und bis zu einem R-Wert von 0.0483 verfeinert. Danach ist (+)-1R-konfiguriert. Von den beiden Enantiomeren besitzt nur (S)-(−)-1 H1-agonistische Aktivitat. Resolution, Crystal Structure, and Histamine-like Activity of 4-[1-(2-Aminoethylthio)ethyl]-5-methylimidazole The resolution of racemic 4-[1-(2-aminoethylthio)ethyl]-5-methylimidazole (1) using optically active Di-O-(P-toluoyl)tartaric acid as well as the histamine-like activity of t…
Diaryldistyrylpyrazines: Solvatochromic and Acidochromic Fluorophores
2013
Diaryldimethylpyrazines are the starting materials for the synthesis of C2-symmetric donor- or acceptor-substituted distyrylpyrazines. The optical properties of these cruciform-shaped dyes are dominated by the distyrylpyrazine units; the photophysics is controlled by the styryl substitution, the diaryl substituents on the central pyrazine only having a small effect. Protonation occurs on the pyrazine and/or lateral amines or azines, thereby altering the absorption and emission properties. Hypso- and bathochromism as well as fluorescence quenching depend on the nature of the terminal substituent. This, and a significant positive solvatochromism of the fluorescence, allow optical sensing of t…
New Optically Active 4-Alkoxyprolinol Ethers Derived from trans-4-Hydroxy-L-proline
2011
(2S,4R)-trans-4-Hydroxy-L-proline has been used as thechiral-pool source in the efficient syntheses of optically active protected 4-hydroxyprolinols. After N-acyl protection andester formation, the first ether moiety was introduced maintaining the chiral centre adjacent to the ester. Then, reduction of the ester delivered the corresponding carbinol, which had to be alkylated selectively to avoid side reactions with the N-protecting group. Finally, the N-acyl function was removed to generate the target methyl and tert-butyl ethers displaying defined substitution patterns. The so-formed optically active 4-alkoxyprolinol ethers can be used as core fragments in biologically active compounds or …
Uranium( iv ) cyclobutadienyl sandwich compounds: synthesis, structure and chemical bonding
2019
The 1 : 1 reactions of uranium(IV) tetrakis(borohydride) with the sodium and potassium salts of the cyclobutadienyl anion [C4(SiMe3)4]2− (Cb′′′′) produce the half-sandwich complexes [Na(12-crown-4)2][U(η4-Cb′′′′)(BH4)3] and [U(η4-Cb′′′′)(μ-BH4)3{K(THF)2}]2. In the 1 : 2 reaction of U(BH4)4 with Na2Cb′′′′, formation of [U(η4-Cb′′′′)(η3-C4H(SiMe3)3-κ-(CH2SiMe2)(BH4))]− reveals that a Cb′′′′ ligand undergoes an intramolecular deprotonation, resulting in an allyl/tuck-in bonding mode. A computational study reveals that the uranium–Cb′′′′ bonding has an appreciable covalent component with contributions from the uranium 5f and 6d orbitals. peerReviewed
Non-covalent graphene nanobuds from mono- and tripodal binding motifs.
2017
Graphene nanobuds were prepared via the non-covalent anchoring of C60-based molecules endowed with one or three pyrene units, respectively. TGA, FTIR, UV-Vis and TEM investigations confirmed the formation of nanohybrids. For the two molecular derivatives, striking differences were determined in their interaction with graphene or carbon surfaces by Raman, cyclic voltammetry and molecular mechanics calculations, revealing the important role of pyrene adsorption in modulating the electronic properties of the nanohybrids.
Temperature-Induced Structural Transitions in the Gallium-Based MIL-53 Metal–Organic Framework
2013
We report a structural and thermodynamic investigation of the phase behavior of Ga(OH,F)-MIL-53, a gallium-based metal–organic framework (MOF) having the MIL-53 topology containing 0.7 wt % fluorine bonded to the metal. Despite some small structural differences, especially for the hydrated form, the overall physical chemistry behavior of Ga(OH,F)-MIL-53 is very similar to standard fluorine free Ga-MIL-53 material. A combination of in situ X-ray diffraction, in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and heat capacity measurements allowed us to establish that Ga(OH,F)-MIL-53 under vacuum (i.e., the empty material) exhibits two stable phases: a nonporo…
l-Arabinose Conformers Adsorption on Ruthenium Surfaces: A DFT Study
2012
Adsorption of 5 L-arabinose tautomers – one acyclic and four cyclic (α and β, pyranose and furanose) species – on a ruthenium surface was studied as a precursor-process of the, nowadays more and more, industrially important sugar catalytic hydrogenation on metal surfaces in water medium. The study was mostly referred to a 37-atom metal catalyst fragment, even though border-effects on the adsorption processes were also checked employing a 61-atom metal fragment. In order to figure out conformational effects on the title process the tautomer flexibility was, at first, investigated by the genetic-algorithm based code Balloon, considering the conformational spaces of the different aquo tautomer…
Rhodium catalyzed oxidative coupling of salicylaldehydes with diazabicyclic olefins: a one pot strategy involving aldehyde C–H cleavage and π-allyl c…
2013
An efficient one pot strategy for the synthesis of cyclopentene fused chromanone derivatives through the direct oxidative coupling of salicylaldehydes with bicyclic olefins in the presence of a rhodium-copper catalyst system is described. This is the first report on the ring opening-ring closing of bicyclic hydrazines via metal catalyzed oxidative coupling reaction.
Orientation-Dependent Handedness of Chiral Plasmons on Nanosphere Dimers: How to Turn a Right Hand into a Left Hand
2016
Optical activity, which is used as a discriminator of chiral enantiomers, is demonstrated to be orientation dependent on individual, and nominally achiral, plasmonic nanosphere dimers. Through measurements of their giant Raman optical activity, we demonstrate that L/R-handed enantiomers can be continuously turned into their R/L-handed mirror images without passing through an achiral state. The primitive uniaxial multipolar response, with demonstrable broken parity and time reversal symmetry, reproduces the observations as resonant Raman scattering on plasmons that carry angular momentum. The analysis underscores that chirality does not have a quantitative continuous measure and recognizes t…
