Efficient Resolution of Menthylamine with Inexpensive (R,R)-Tartaric Acid by Dielectrically Controlled Resolution (DCR)

2013

A practical procedure for the resolution of menthylamine 2 with (R,R)-tartaric acid [(R,R)-3] as resolving agent is presented. Variation of the solvent system allows both enantiomers of 2 to be selectively crystallized. Performing the resolution in methanol containing 6 % water leads to (–)-2·(R,R)-3·MeOH. The other, less-soluble diastereomeric salt is obtained by applying a solvent system consisting of methanol with 19 % water with a yield of 14 %. Subsequent basic workup with aqueous sodium hydroxide gave the free menthylamine compounds. Further workup of the mother liquors and an additional recrystallization step allowed the (–)-2·(R,R)-3·MeOH salt to be obtained in an overall yield of 2…

Covariant Operator Formalism for Quantized Superfields

1988

The Takahashi-Umezawa method of deriving the free covariant quantization relations from the linear equations of motion is extended to superfields. The Cauchy problem for free superfields is solved, and an expression for the time independent scalar product is given. For the case of interacting fields, we give the general Kallen-Lehmann spectral representation for the two-point superfield Green functions and, after the introduction of the asymptotic condition for superfields, we give the superfield extension of the Yang-Feldman equation. The case of the D = 2 real scalar superfield and the case of the D = 4 chiral superfield are discussed in detail.

Enantioselective Guest Effect on the Spin State of a Chiral Coordination Framework

2015

The diversity of spin crossover (SCO) complexes that, on the one hand, display variable temperature, abruptness and hysteresis of the spin transition, and on the other hand, are spin-sensitive to the various guest molecules, makes these materials unique for the detection of different organic and inorganic compounds. We have developed a homochiral SCO coordination polymer with a spin transition sensitive to the inclusion of the guest 2-butanol, and these solvates with (R)- and (S)-alcohols demonstrate different SCO behaviours depending on the chirality of the organic analyte. A stereoselective response to the guest inclusion is detected as a shift in the temperature of the transition both fr…

Syntheses of Four Enantiomers of 2,3-Diendo- and 3-Endo-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2-exo-carboxylic Acid and Their Saturated Analogues

2013

Abstract: Ethyl 2,3- diendo -3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct- 5-ene-2-carboxylate ((±)- 1 ) was resolved with O , O '-dibenzoyltartaric acid via diastere omeric salt formation. The efficient synthesis of the enantiomers of 2,3- diendo -3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct- 5-ene-2-carboxylic acid ((+)- 7 and (–)- 7 ), 3- endo -aminobicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene-2- exo -carboxylic acid ((+)- 5 and (–)- 5 ), cis - and trans -3-aminobicyclo[2.2.2]octa ne-2-carboxylic acid ((+)- 6 , (–)- 6 , (+)- 8 and (–)- 8 ) was achieved via isomerization, hydrogenation and hydrolysis of the corresponding esters (–)- 1 and (+)- 1 . The stereochemistry and relative configurations of the synthesized compounds were determined by NMR sp…

Ferromagnetism and Chirality in Two-Dimensional Cyanide-Bridged Bimetallic Compounds

2002

The combination of hexacyanoferrate(III) anions, [Fe(CN)(6)](3)(-), with nickel(II) complexes derived from the chiral ligand trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine (trans-chxn) affords the enantiopure layered compounds [Ni(trans-(1S,2S)-chxn)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2).2H(2)O (1) and [Ni(trans-(1R,2R)-chxn)(2)](3)[Fe(CN)(6)](2).2H(2)O (2). These chiral systems behave as ferromagnets (T(c) = 13.8 K) with a relatively high coercive field (H(c) = 0.17 T) at 2 K. They also exhibit an unusual magnetic behavior at low temperatures that has been attributed to the dynamics of the magnetic domains in the ordered phase.

Single chain magnet behaviour in an enantiopure chiral cobalt(II)–copper(II) one-dimensional compound

2010

The self-assembly of an enantiomerically pure, chiral dianionic oxamatocopper(II) complex with cobalt(II) ions leads to neutral oxamato-bridged heterobimetallic chains that combine chirality and slow magnetic relaxation, providing thus the first example of ‘‘chiral single chain magnets (CSCMs).

Diastereoselective Intramolecular Additions of Allyl- and Propargylsilanes to Iminium Ions: Synthesis of Cyclic and Bicyclic Quaternary Amino Acids

2010

Chiral imino lactones derived from (R)-phenylglycinol containing an allyl- or propargyltrimethylsilyl group in the side chain readily cyclized in the presence of acidic reagents to afford spirocyclic compounds with high diastereoselectivity. Removal of the chiral auxiliary produced 2-substituted 1-aminocycloalkanecarboxylic acids, whereas further cyclizations by means of metathesis or hydroamination reactions led to bicyclic derivatives of pipecolic acid and proline.

Synthesis of a technetium-99m labelledL-tyrosine derivative with thefac-99mTc(I)(CO)3-core using a simple kit-procedure

2004

Summary The synthesis of a novel technetium-99m labelled derivative of l-tyrosine as a potential tumour imaging agent for nuclear medicine diagnosis is reported. The synthesis involved the labelling precursor fac-[ 99m Tc(OH2)(CO)3] + which was synthesized using the commercially available Isolink 1 -labelling kit and the tyrosine derivative O-(N,Nbis(carboxymethyl)aminoethyl)-l-tyrosine trifluoroacetate. The labelled compound O( 99m Tc(I)-tricarbonyl-N,N-bis(carboxymethyl)aminoethyl)-l-tyrosine was obtained in a radiochemical yield of 70–80% within 60 min with a radiochemical purity greater than 98% without any HPLC purification step. Purification was achieved merely by solid phase extracti…

Joziknipholones A and B: The First Dimeric Phenylanthraquinones, from the Roots ofBulbine frutescens

2007

From the roots of the African plant Bulbine frutescens (Asphodelaceae), two unprecedented novel dimeric phenylanthraquinones, named joziknipholones A and B, possessing axial and centrochirality, were isolated, together with six known compounds. Structural elucidation of the new metabolites was achieved by spectroscopic and chiroptical methods, by reductive cleavage of the central bond between the monomeric phenylanthraquinone and -anthrone portions with sodium dithionite, and by quantum chemical CD calculations. Based on the recently revised absolute axial configuration of the parent phenylanthraquinones, knipholone and knipholone anthrone, the new dimers were attributed to possess the P-co…
