Structure and properties of some nitro derivatives of N -methyl- N -phenylnitramine
2000
Abstract Ten mono-, di- and tri-nitro derivatives of N-methyl-N-phenylnitramine were prepared and investigated using spectral and electrooptical methods. Three of them, viz. N-(2, 5-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/c, a=8.248(2), b=11.655(2), c=10.404(2) A , β=102.57(2)°), N-(2,3-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/c, a=9.224(2), b=7.222(2), c=15.458(4) A , β=101.08(2)°)) and N-(3,5-dinitrophenyl)-N-methylnitramine (monoclinic, P21/n, a=9.814(2), b=12.000(2), c=8.865(2) A , β=114.94(2)°) were examined by the X-ray diffraction method. The nitramino group is nearly planar with the short N(7)–N(8) bond and strongly electron deficient N(8) atom. The nitramino grou…
Dynamic formation of hybrid peptidic capsules by chiral self-sorting and self-assembly.
2014
Owing to their versatility and biocompatibility, peptide-based self-assembled structures constitute valuable targets for complex functional designs. It is now shown that artificial capsules based on β-barrel binding motifs can be obtained by means of dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) and self-assembly. Short peptides (up to tetrapeptides) are reversibly attached to resorcinarene scaffolds. Peptidic capsules are thus selectively formed in either a heterochiral or a homochiral way by simultaneous and spontaneous processes, involving chiral sorting, tautomerization, diastereoselective induction of inherent chirality, and chiral self-assembly. Self-assembly is shown to direct the regioselectivit…
A supramolecular heteropolyoxopalladate {Pd15} cluster host encapsulating a {Pd2} dinuclear guest: [Pd(II)2⊂{H7Pd(II)15O10(PO4)10}](9-).
2011
A high-nuclearity polyoxopalladate compound, [Pd(II)(2)⊂{H(7)Pd(II)(15)O(10)(PO(4))(10)}](9-) {Pd(II)(17)}, comprising a {Pd(15)} host occupied by a {Pd(2)} guest and the parent pristine "empty" [H(7)Pd(II)(15)O(10)(P(V)O(4))(10)](13-) {Pd(15)} cluster have both been prepared and characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, (31)P NMR, CSI-MS, and XPS. The encapsulated {Pd(2)} has a short Pd(II)-Pd(II) distance within the {Pd(15)} host. Solution studies indicate that the empty host and filled guest complex are in equilibrium with each other, and UV titrations revealed a binding constant of ca. 10(3) for the guest Pd(II) ions, with a binding stoichiometry of almost 2.
Ferrocenyl-functionalized tetranuclear gold(I) and gold(I)-copper(I) complexes based on tridentate phosphanes
2013
Tetranuclear AuI–FeII dimetallic and AuI–CuI–FeII trimetallic complexes bearing ferrocenyl (Fc) groups have been assembled by using two triphosphane ligands, namely, (PPh2CH2)2PPh (dpmp) and (PPh2)3CH (tppm). The compositions and structural type of the clusters are dependent on the stereochemistry of the P donor ligands. The complexes [tppmAu3Cu(C2R)3]PF6 [R = Fc (1) and 4-C6H4-Fc (2)] adopt a trigonal pyramidal {Au3Cu} arrangement of the coordinating metal core, whereas for the compounds with the linear triphosphane [Au4(dpmp)2(C2R)2](PF6)2 [R = Fc (3) and 4-C6H4-Fc (4)], a planar rhomboidal {Au4} framework was found. Clusters 1–4 were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS measureme…
Antioxidative succinobucol–sterol conjugates: Crystal structures and pseudosymmetry in the crystals
2012
Abstract An extensive study to attach succinobucol to sterols has provided conjugates which comprise two pharmaceutically important compounds into one entity where the components are expected to have a synergistic effect. The motivation to design these novel conjugates was the need to broaden the armamentarium of current agents used in the treatment of atherosclerotic diseases and type 2 diabetes. In desire for detailed information of these compounds in solid state, which also have an influence to their physiological activity, systematic crystallization experiments were performed and as a result, X-ray quality single crystals were obtained from four succinobucol–sterol conjugates. All of th…
Organoelement derivatives of steroids: synthesis and structural characterization of diorganotin chloride adducts of hormones
1986
Abstract Ten new diorganotin dichloride adducts of hormones of the type R 2 SnCl 2 ·2L [where R = Me, Et, n-Bu, Oct and Ph; L = 4-androsten-17s-ol-3-one ( A ); 5-androsten-3s-ol-17-one ( B ); 4-androsten-17α- methyl-17s-ol-3-one ( C ) and 3,17-dihydroxy-5- pregnene-20-one ( D )] have been prepared and characterized at 297 K and 223 K. Spectroscopic measurements (IR; Raman; 1 H, 13 C, 119 Sn NMR) suggest the dissociation or fast ligand exchange in solution at 297 K. Hexa-coordinated adducts with bonding through carbonyl oxygen and trans -R groups in octahedral geometry are formulated at 223 K.

Abstract A Montecarlo calculation of the structure of liquid acetonitrile, based on a Lonnard-Jones ab initio potential, has been performed. Pair correlation functions between all the heavy atoms are obtained for distances within 8 A°. The features of the obtained structure are discussed.
Evaluation of adhesion forces for the manipulation of micro-objects in submerged environment through deposition of pH responsive polyelectrolyte laye…
2016
Optimization of surface treatment for reversible adhesion of micro-objects in liquid environment for the need in microassembly processes is presented. A spherical borosilicate probe and planar oxidized silicon wafer substrates were modified by deposition of pH sensitive polyelectrolyte films through layer-by-layer technique. Branched polyethylenimine (b-PEI) and poly(sodium styrenesulfonate) (PSS) were deposited in alternating manner on surfaces, and the influence of polyelectrolyte concentration, pH of deposition, and number of layers on the adhesion were successively examined. The multilayer buildup was followed by optical reflectometry (OR) and dissipative quartz crystal microbalance (QC…
Confinement of Water in Hydrophobic Nanopores: Effect of the Geometry on the Energy of Intrusion
2013
International audience; Water confinement in the hydrophobic nanopores of highly siliceous zeolite having MFI and CHA topology is investigated by high pressure manometry coupled to differential calorimetry. Surprisingly, the intrusion of water is endothermic for MFI but exothermic for CHA. This phase transition depends on the geometry of the environment in which water is confined: channels (MFI) or cavities (CHA). The energy of intrusion is mainly governed by the change in the coordination of water molecules when they are forced to enter the nanopores and to adopt a weaker, hydrogen-bonded structure. At such a nanoscale, the properties of the molecules are governed strongly by geometrical r…
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.
