Tin(IV) catalyzed D-galacturonic acid anomerization
2008
A comparative kinetic study of anomerization between the four main forms (alpha/beta-pyranosides and alpha/beta-furanosides) of D-galacturonic acid (GalAH(2), 1) and tin(IV) complexed D-galacturonate ([Sn(CH(3))(2)(GalA)(H(2)O)(2)], 2) in D(2)O, is reported. Important differences are shown by pD vs. mutarotation rate profiles of 1 and 2. Coordination, in fact, causes: i) a spectacular increase of the rate due to kinetic template assistance of the carboxylic tail holding the metal in close proximity to the reactive centre and ii) a change in the dependence of the rate on the pD. Entropic and enthalpic factors contribute to the huge activation energy decrease in 2. Anomerization rates of the …
Chemical and Spectroscopical Properties of Medium Sizedtrans- andcis-Bicyclo[n.1.0]alk-2-ynes
1997
Chemical and spectroscopical properties of cis- and trans-cyclopropano-anellated cycloalkynes of medium ring size are investigated and compared with results from force field calculations. IR and 13C-NMR data of the alkynes reflect the deformation of the triple bond due to ring strain. Parallel to bending the reactivity increases with decreasing ring size, the trans fused alkynes prove to be nearly as reactive as the cis fused with a two carbon smaller ring size. The bicycloalkynes are complexed with silver triflate. 13C NMR reveals that the triple bond as well as the cyclopropane serve as ligands.
Fourier transform nmr investigations of organotin compounds
1980
Abstract NMR spectra have been obtained for fiteen title compounds, mainly with R = Me. Tin chemical shifts were found to lie within the expected ranges, but to vary little with R or, apparently, with change in ring size. While the magnitute of 1 (SnSe) was as predicted, the of 1 (SnTe) was more than twice as large as that previously observed for (Me 3 Sn) 2 Te. In compounds Me 6 Sn( 3 X 3 , 2 J(SnMSn) varied systematically with variations in x, but within relatively narrow limits (195-250 Hz); a much more drastic variation was observed for Me 6 Sn 3 X 2 , possibly due to bond angle changes at Sn and X.
Unravelling the strain-promoted [3+2] cycloaddition reactions of phenyl azide with cycloalkynes from the molecular electron density theory perspective
2020
The strain-promoted [3+2] cycloaddition (SP-32CA) reactions of phenyl azide with a series of five strained cycloalkynes C5–C9 have been studied within molecular electron density theory (MEDT) at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d,p) computational level. These zwitterionic type SP-32CA reactions take place through a one-step mechanism, with activation enthalpies in acetonitrile between −4.2 and 19.9 kcal mol−1. An excellent linear correlation between the decrease in activation enthalpies and the ring size of this series of cycloalkynes can be established. The present study shows that the highly strained cycloalkynes C5 and C6 experience a different chemical reactivity than less strained cycloalkynes C7–C9,…
Ring size control in diorganotin sulphides by intramolecular SnN coordination
1992
Abstract The synthesis of intramolecularly coordinated organotin sulphides, [(Me2N CH2CH2CH2)2SnS]n (1) and [Me2NCH2CH2CH2Sn(Ph)S]n (2), is described. Compounds 1 and 2 are dimers in chloroform solution (n = 2). Compound 1 forms a centrosymmetric dimer with a planar rectangular Sn2S2 four-membered ring in its centre. The tin atoms show a distorted trans-cis-cis octahedral coordination by 2C, 2N and 2S. The tin-nitrogen distances are 2.810(3) and 3.158(5) A. Compound 1 can be regarded as a model substance for nucleophilic attack at penta-coordinate tin centres. Although the degree of intramolecular coordination of nitrogen to tin is temperature dependent, the four-membered Sn2Sn2 ring remain…
N‑Oxide Polyethers as Kinetic Hydrate Inhibitors: Side Chain Ring Size Makes the Difference
2021
The formation of gas hydrates in flow lines is one of the most severe problems for flow assurance in the gas and oil industry. Developing effective kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) to avoid the problem of gas hydrate formation has attracted widespread attention. In this study, a series of poly(glycidyl amine N-oxide)s (PGAOs) with 5–7-membered rings as side chains, poly(pyrrolidine glycidyl amine N-oxide)s (PPyrGAOs), poly(piperidine glycidyl amine N-oxide)s (PPiGAOs), and poly(azepane glycidyl amine N-oxide)s (PAzGAOs), with varying molecular weights, have been synthesized. The KHI performance of these glycidyl amine N-oxide polyethers has been evaluated in high-pressure rocking cells wit…
Topological effects in ring polymers. II. Influence of persistence length
1999
The interplay of topological constraints and persistence length of ring polymers in their own melt is investigated by means of dynamical Monte Carlo simulations of a three dimensional lattice model. We ask if the results are consistent with an asymptotically regime where the rings behave like (compact) {\em lattice animals} in a self-consistent network of topological constraints imposed by neighbouring rings. Tuning the persistence length provides an efficient route to increase the ring overlap required for this mean-field picture to hold: The {\em effective} Flory exponent for the ring size decreases down to $\nu \stackrel{<}{\sim} 1/3$ with increasing persistence length. Evidence is provi…

Mono- and Bimetallic Zwitterionic Chromium(0) and Tungsten(0) Allenyls
2015
A series of stable chiral (racemic), formally neutral, zwitterionic mono- and bimetallic M(CO)5[C(OEt)═C═CR(NHC)] (M = Cr, W) σ-allenyls are ready available by the addition of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) to Cr(0) and W(0) alkynyl Fischer carbene complexes. Different classes of NHCs, (e.g., 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene, 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene, and their six- and seven-membered analogues and 1,3-bis(dimethyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) were employed as nucleophiles in these C-C bond-forming reactions yielding the novel complexes in essentially quantitative yields. A systematic experimental and computational study of the electronic properties of the C…
Potential ATPase mimics by polyammonium macrocycles: Criteria for catalytic activity
1992
Abstract A series of polyammonium macrocycles, ranging in size from the 18-membered ring [18]aneN6 to the 36-membered [36]aneN12 were examined as potential ATPase mimics. The rates of hydrolysis of ATP were followed at pH 3.0 and 7.0 using 31P NMR and HPLC techniques. Stability constants as a function of degree of protonation, distribution curves for the ligands as a function of pH, and distribution curves for the mixed species of nucleotides, inorganic phosphate, and macrocycle were also determined. All of the macrocycles catalyzed the hydrolysis of ATP to some extent compared to noncatalyzed hydrolysis. A critical dependence on macrocyclic ring size was observed, with [21]aneN7 being the …
