Syntheses, Structures and Reactivity of New Intramolecularly Coordinated Tin Alkoxides Based on an Enantiopure Ephedrine Derivative
2011
The syntheses of the tin compounds [LSn]2 (2), spiro-L2Sn (3), [LSnW(CO)5]2 (4), [LSnBr2]2 (5), spiro-L2Sn·SnBr4 (6) and LSn[OC(O)Ph]2 (8), where L = MeN(CH2CMe2O)[(S)-CH(Me)-(R)-CH(Ph)O], and (Ph4P)2SnBr6 (7) are reported. The compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, multinuclear NMR spectroscopy including 119Sn cross polarisation–magic angle spinning NMR (CP–MAS) (2, 3–6), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (2–4) and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (2, 2·C7H8, 3a, 3b, 4·C7H8, 5, 6·C7H8, 7).
Unravelling the mechanism of the ketene-imine Staudinger reaction. An ELF quantum topological analysis
2015
The mechanism of the ketene-imine Staudinger (KI-S) reaction between t-butyl-cyano ketene and N-phenyl phenylimine has been studied using DFT methods at the MPWB1K/6-311G(d) computational level. The reaction takes place through a two-step mechanism: (i) the first step is the nucleophilic attack of the imine nitrogen lone pair on the central carbon of the ketene yielding a zwitterionic (ZW) intermediate; (ii) the second step, which is the rate- and stereoselectivity-determining step, is a ring-closure process achieved by a nucleophilic attack of the terminal carbon atom of the ketene on the imine carbon atom. Due to the unfeasibility of a cis/trans and an E/Z stereoisomerisation at the ZW in…
Selective derivatisations of resorcarenes - 2. Multiple regioselective ring closure reactions
1997
Abstract The condensation of the C-pentyl resorcarene 1 with long chain aliphatic diamines 3a-d and excess formaldehyde leads under high dilution conditions to tetrabenzoxazine derivatives 4a-d in which pairs of adjacent oxazine rings are connected by an aliphatic chain. Six new rings are formed per resorcarene molecule during this reaction in a regioselective way. For one example (4a) the chiral cleft-like structure with C2 symmetry was proved by single crystal X-ray analysis. Hydrolysis of the oxazine rings gives the secondary amine derivatives 5a,b with C2v symmetry in high yield.
The surface electronic structure of stoichiometric and defective LiF surfaces studied with MIES and UPS in combination with ab-initio calculations
1997
Abstract UPS (He I) and metastable impact electron spectroscopy (MIES) spectra of the LiF(100) single crystal surface and stoichiometric LiF films are presented. The spectra are interpreted on the basis of ab-initio electronic structure calculations. Defective surfaces, produced by electron dosing, were studied in the same manner. The MIES spectra reveal that the electron dosing produces metallic patches on the surface, but no uniform Li adlayer. The calculation show that the F-center contribution to the electron emission is very close in energy to that from the metallic patches; thus, the two contributions cannot be distinguished by the present experimental techniques.
General occurrence of polar twisted minima in the ionic singlet excited surfaces of polyenes
1982
Except for a few cases, the lowest closed shell SCF solutions for the twisted geometries of polyenes involves delocalized nonpolarized MO’s, and represents a meaningless mixture of radicalar gound state and ionic excited states. Higher (quasi) solutions allow a realistic approach of the polarized ionic states. Orthogonality to the radicalar ground state may be imposed without important loss of energy. Further extensive CI does not modify significantly the situation. These statements are illustrated through ab initio calculations of butadiene and hexatriene. This approach allows us to show that slight distortions stablize polar minima even in ’’homosymmetric’’ molecules such as all‐trans hex…
Determination of single crystal elastic constants in textured polycrystalline materials: inverse approach coupling x-ray diffraction and self consist…
2004
La diffraction des rayons X couplee a l'utilisation d'un modele polycristallin (modele auto-coherent) est utilisee pour determiner les constantes d'elasticite monocristallines d'un materiau polycristallin texture. En effet, la connaissance du tenseur de rigidite elastique cijkl d'un solide est fondamentale pour les etudes s'attachant a la comprehension des proprietes mecaniques de la matiere (approches theoriques ou experimentales). Si, d'autres techniques permettent de determiner le tenseur d'elasticite d'un materiau (ultrasons par exemple), elles necessitent souvent l'utilisation d'un monocristal. Ceci n'est pas toujours realisable, en particulier pour des alliages de concentrations varia…
Photoinduced ultrafast dye-to-semiconductor electron injection from nonthermalized and thermalized donor states.
2001
Electron injection from the transition metal complex Ru(dcbpy)(2)(NCS)(2) (dcbpy = 4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine) into a titanium dioxide nanocrystalline film occurs on the femto- and picosecond time scales. Here we show that the dominating part of the electron transfer proceeds extremely rapidly from the initially populated, vibronically nonthermalized, singlet excited state, prior to electronic and nuclear relaxation of the molecule. The results are especially relevant to the understanding and design of molecular-based photovoltaic devices and artificial photosynthetic assemblies.
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of the first structurally characterized 1,2-dithiocroconato-containing Cu(II) complex, [Cu(bpca)…
1996
Abstract The first crystal and molecular structure of a transition metal complex containing 1,2-dithiocroconate (1,2-dtcr, dianion of 1,2-dimercaptocylopent-1-ene-3,4,5-trione), [Cu(bpca)(H2O)]2[Cu(1,2-dtcr)2]·2H2O (where bpca is the bis(2-pyrdidylcarbonyl)amide anion), has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The compound crystallizesin the monoclinic syste, space group P21/c, with a = 11.661(3), b = 20.255(6), c = 8.265(3) A , s = 107.26(2)° and Z = 2. The structure is formally built of [Cu(1,2-dtcr)2]2− and [Cu(bpca)(H2O)]+ ions and water of hydration. The copper atom of the anion is situated at a crystallographic inversion centre, bonded to four sulfur atoms in a…
Single-crystal EPR study of the bimetallic ferrimagnetic chain MnCu(EDTA)·6H2O
1993
Abstract A single-crystal EPR study of the bimetallic chain compound MnCu(EDTA)·6H2O is reported. The angular dependence of the linewidth is discussed in relation to the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction, manganese zerofield splitting (ZFS) and copper hyperfine coupling. The calculation of the second moments indicates that ZFS is comparable to the dipolar contribution. The EPR data support the one-dimensional character of the compound.
Solvent induced single-crystal to single-crystal structural transformation and concomitant transmetalation in a 3D cationic Zn(II)-framework.
2015
A 3D cationic Zn(II) framework, based on Zn2(CO2)4 paddle-wheel secondary building units (SBUs) and Zn16(CO2)32 polyhedral supramolecular building blocks (SBBs), has been synthesized. At room temperature, the framework undergoes guest solvent triggered reversible structural transformation and concomitant Zn(II) to Cu(II) transmetalation in a single-crystal to single-crystal fashion.
