Chemistry and reactivity of dinuclear iron oxamate complexes: alkane oxidation with hydrogen peroxide catalysed by an oxo-bridged diiron(III) complex…
2004
[EN] A new dinuclear iron(III) complex with the tetradentate ligand N,N'-o-phenylenebis(oxamate) (opba) has been synthesised, and structurally, magnetically and electrochemically characterised. It possesses an unprecedented triply bridged Fe-2(mu-O)(mu-RCO2...H2O...O2CR)(2) core, whereby two N-amides from the opba ligand complete the square-pyramidal coordination sphere of the O-carboxylate rich iron site (Fe-N = 2.053 Angstrom and Fe-O = 2.015 Angstrom), The antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between the two high-spin Fe-III ions through the oxo bridge (J = -190 cm(-1); H = -JS(1)(.)S(2)) is weaker than that found in related mu-oxo singly bridged diiron(III) complexes. The lessened ant…
A Facile Synthesis of Deaza-Analogues of the Bisindole Marine Alkaloid Topsentin
2013
A series of substituted ethyl 1-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-2-methyl-5- (1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-4-[(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)carbonyl]-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates were prepared in excellent yields (82-98%) by one-pot reactions between β-dicarbonyl compounds 12a-e and 1,2-diaza-1,3-diene (DD) 13. Derivatives 10a,c-e, deazaanalogues of the bis-indole alkaloid topsentin, screened by the National Cancer Institute (Bethesda, MD, USA) in the in vitro one dose primary anticancer assay against a panel of about 60 human tumor cell lines, showed no significant activity, with the exception of compound 9e, which showed moderate activity against the HOP-92 cell line of the non small cell lung cancer sub-p…
Evaluation of the sequestering ability of different complexones towards Ag+ ion
2014
Abstract The interaction between Ag+ cation and different ligands was evaluated as a function of temperature and ionic strength by means of potentiometric techniques. Six aminopolycarboxylic (APCs) and aminopolyphosphonic (APPs) ligands were chosen, namely four APCs: nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), ethylene-glycol-bis(2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N’,N’-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), ethylenediamine-N,N,N’,N’-tetraacetate (EDTA) and diethylenetriamine-N,N,N’,N”,N”-pentaacetic acid (DTPA)] and two APPs: [(1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) (HEDP) and [[(Phosphonomethyl)imino]bis[2,1-ethanediylnitrilobis(methylene)]] tetrakis-phosphonic acid (DTPP). Different mononuclear species with general formu…
High-valent bis(oxo)-bridged dinuclear manganese oxamates: Synthesis, crystal structures, magnetic properties, and electronic structure calculations …
2007
[EN] Two novel bis(oxo)-bridged dinuclear manganese(IV) complexes with the binucleating ligand o-phenylenebis(oxamate) (opba), formulated as (Me4N)(4)[Mn2O2(opba)(2)] (1a) and (Me4N)(2)(Ph4P)(2)[Mn2O2(opba)(2)] (.) 8H(2)O (1b), have been synthesized and characterized structurally and magnetically. Like the parent complex (Ph4P)(4)[Mn2O2(opba)(2)] (.) 4H(2)O (1c), they possess unique Mn-2(mu-O)(2) bridging cores with two additional o-phenylenediamidate bridges which lead to exceptionally short Mn-Mn distances (2.63-2.67 angstrom) and fairly bent Mn-O-Mn angles (93.8-95.5 degrees). Complexes 1a-c show a moderate to strong antiferromagnetic coupling between the two high-spin Mn-IV ions through…
1-n-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium-2-carboxylate: a versatile precatalyst for the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone and rac-lactide under solv…
2013
The ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL) and rac-lactide (rac-LA) under solvent-free conditions and using 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-2-carboxylate (BMIM-2-CO2) as precatalyst is described. Linear and star-branched polyesters were synthesized by successive use of benzyl alcohol, ethylene glycol, glycerol and pentaerythritol as initiator alcohols, and the products were fully characterized by 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). BMIM-2-CO2 acts as an N-heterocyclic carbene precursor, resulting from in situ decarboxylation, either by heating under vacuo (method A) or by addition of NaBPh4 (method B)…

A salt-induced mechanism for the swelling of black liquor droplet during devolatilization
2017
Abstract Black liquor (BL) from the pulp and paper industry is a significant bioenergy source. Swelling of BL droplet during the pyrolysis stage of combustion and gasification is a profound phenomenon affecting various boiler processes. However, the mechanism for droplet swelling has remains a puzzle due to an insufficient understanding of the formation of the plastic droplet at the pyrolysis stage of the thermal conversion. Thermogravimetric studies with model aliphatic carboxylates unraveled the melting and decomposition behavior of the complex mixture of BL salts during pyrolysis, indicating that the melting of salts forming a liquid state may be the primary cause for the development of …
Identification of hexanuclear Actinide(IV) carboxylates with Thorium, Uranium and Neptunium by EXAFS spectroscopy
2012
International audience; Hydrated actinide(IV) ions undergo hydrolysis and further polymerization and precipitation with increasing pH. The resulting amorphous and partly crystalline oxydydroxides AnO(n)(OH)(4-2n)center dot xH(2)O can usually be observed as colloids above the An(IV) solubility limit. The aging process of such colloids results in crystalline AnO(2). The presence of carboxylates in the solution prevents the occurrence of such colloids by formation of polynuclear complexes through a competing reaction between hydrolysis and ligation. The majority of recently described carboxylates reveals a hexanuclear core of [An(6)(mu(3)-O)(4)(mu(3)-OH)(4)](12+) terminated by 12 carboxylate l…
Astrocytes and hypothalamic glucose sensing: metabolic role and involvement of astroglial connexins
2012
The hypothalamus plays a pivotal role in the nervous control of glucose homeostasis. This area contains gluco-sensitive neurons. Some of them detect increases in glucose levels and regulate glucose homeostasis by stimulating insulin secretion or inhibiting food intake. It is widely accepted that astrocytes are metabolically coupled to neurons. Lactate, resulting from the metabolism of glucose by astrocytes, is transported via the monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs). In addition, gap junctions (GJ), that form networks within astrocytes, are essential to transfer glucose from the bloodstream to the active neurons. These astroglial GJ mainly consist of connexins 43 and 30 (Cxs).The aims of my …
A novel and selective fluoride opening of aziridines by XtalFluor-E. synthesis of fluorinated diamino acid derivatives.
2015
The selective introduction of fluorine onto the skeleton of an aminocyclopentane or cyclohexane carboxylate has been developed through a novel and efficient fluoride opening of an activated aziridine ring with XtalFluor-E. The reaction proceeded through a stereoselective aziridination of the olefinic bond of a bicyclic lactam and regioselective aziridine ring opening with difluorosulfiliminium tetrafluoroborate with the neighboring group assistance of the sulfonamide moiety to yield fluorinated diamino acid derivatives. The method based on the selective aziridine opening by fluoride has been generalized to afford access to mono- or bicyclic fluorinated substances.
