Inclusion complexes of Cethyl-2-methylresorcinarene and pyridine N-oxides: breaking the C–I⋯−O–N+ halogen bond by host–guest complexation

2016

C ethyl-2-Methylresorcinarene forms host–guest complexes with aromatic N-oxides through multiple intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds and C–H⋯π interactions. The host shows conformational flexibility to accommodate 3-methylpyridine N-oxide, while retaining a crown conformation for 2-methyl- and 4-methoxypyridine N-oxides highlighting the substituent effect of the guest. N-Methylmorpholine N-oxide, a 6-membered ring aliphatic N-oxide with a methyl at the N-oxide nitrogen, is bound by the equatorial −N–CH3 group located deep in the cavity. 2-Iodopyridine N-oxide is the only guest that manifests intermolecular N–O⋯I–C halogen bond interactions, which are broken down by the host resulting i…

Two new supramolecular architectures of singly phenoxo-bridged copper(II) and doubly phenoxo-bridged manganese(II) complexes derived from an unusual …

2009

International audience; Two new coordination complexes {[(L)Cu2('-L)(NO3)(CH3OH)0.3(H2O)0.7]·NO3}[Cu(L)(NO3)(CH3OH)] (1) and [Mn2(-L)2(H2O)(1-N3)2(CH3OH)] (2) derived from (E)-N-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)acetohydrazide [LH] have been synthesized. The new potentially tetradentate ONOO donor hydrazone ligand [LH] has shown considerable metal ion selective phenoxo bridging in 1 and 2. It has coordinated copper(II) ions in its tridentate as well as in tetradentate fashion whereas for manganese(II) ions it solely showed its tetradentate character. In 1 the two adjacent pentacoordinate copper(II) centers are connected by a rare single phenoxo linkage of the hydrazone ligand whereas 2 is a d…

The mechanism of hydrolysis of beta-glycerophosphate by kidney alkaline phosphatase.

1975

1. To identify the functional groups that are involved in the conversion of β-glycerophosphate by alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) from pig kidney, the kinetics of alkaline phosphatase were investigated in the pH range 6.6-10.3 at substrate concentrations of 3 μM-30 mM. From the plots of log ṼH+ against pH and log ṼH+/KH+m against pH one functional group with pK = 7.0 and two functional groups with pK = 9.1 were identified. These groups are involved in substrate binding. Another group with pK = 8.8 was found, which in its unprotonated form catalyses substrate conversion. 2. GSH inhibits the alkaline phosphatase reversibly and non-competitively by attacking the bound Zn(II). 3. The influenc…

Chemical model systems for cellular nitros(yl)ation reactions.

2009

S-nitros(yl)ation belongs to the redox-based posttranslational modifications of proteins but the underlying chemistry is controversial. In contrast to current concepts involving the autoxidation of nitric oxide ( • NO, nitrogen monoxide), we and others have proposed the formation of peroxynitrite (oxoperoxonitrate (1-)) as an essential intermediate. This requires low cellular fluxes of 'NO and superoxide ( • O 2 - ), for which model systems have been introduced. We here propose two new systems for nitros(yl)ation that avoid the shortcomings of previous models. Based on the thermal decomposition of 3-morpholinosydnonimine, equal fluxes of • NO and • O 2 - were generated and modulated by the …

Synthesis of bodinieric acids A and B, both C-18 and C-19-functionalized abietane diterpenoids: DFT study of the key aldol reaction

2020

[EN] The first synthesis of C-18- and C-19-bifunctionalized abietane diterpenoids, bodinieric (or callicapoic) acids, via an aldol reaction has been developed. This key aldol reaction was very sensitive to steric hindrance. This fact has been studied by deuterium exchange experiments and DFT methods. Optimization of this reaction led to the synthesis of anti-inflammatory bodinieric acids A and B, starting from abietic acid

Weak intermolecular interactions promote blue luminescence of protonated 2,2′-dipyridylamine salts

2014

In this work we demonstrate that protonation and π-stacking can be exploited to convert non-luminescent 2,2′-dipyridylamine into blue-emitting derivatives. We have synthesized a series of luminescent 2,2′-dipyridylamine (dpa) salts, i.e., (dpaH)X·nSolv (dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamine, X = HF2, n = 0.5, Solv = H2O 1; X = Cl, n = 2, Solv = H2O 2; X = Br, n = 2, Solv = H2O 3; X = I n = 1, Solv = H2O 4a; X = I n = 1, Solv = CHCl34b), (dpaH)2[SiF6]·H2O 5 and (dpaH)X (X = I36; SbF67; BF48) and characterized their emission properties, both in the solid-state and in solution. To rationalize our observations and relate the luminescence properties to the structure in the solid state and in solution, we ha…

Rearrangement products of 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline.

2003

Two isomeric products (C 8 H 10 N 2 O 4 S) of the rearrangement of 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline have been investigated, viz. 3-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-2-nitroaniline, which was the main product of the rearrangement, and 5-methanesulfonyl-N-methyl-2-nitroaniline. In both molecules, the aromatic rings are appreciably deformed towards ortho-quinonoidal geometry by electronic and steric interactions. The crystal structure is stabilized, in both cases, by weak C-H...O hydrogen bonds.

(E)-2-{[1-(3,11-Dimethyl-4-methylene-10-oxo-1-phenyl-4,5,10,11-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]pyrazolo[3,4-f][1,5]diazocin-5-yl)ethylidene]amino}-N-methyl-N-(…

The central eight-membered ring of the title compound, C40H36N8O2, deviates from the ideal boat conformation because the bond between the exo-ethylene group and the adjacent N atom is twisted by 60.0 (4)° due to steric hindrance. Its adjacent benzene and pyrazole rings are oriented almost perpendicular to each other, making a dihedral angle of 85.8 (3)°. In the crystal, the molecules are linked by C(ar)—H...O hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network.

1976

tert-Butoxy radicals were generated by decomposing di-tert-butyl hyponitrite. The relative reactivities of substrates were measured from the ratio of tert-butanol and acetone formed. Polystyrene was found to be less reactive than model compounds. Activation parameters for the hydrogen abstraction reaction for cumene, 3-phenylpentane, and 2,4-diphenylpentane are reported and show small differences for the enthalpy of activation; large negative values for the entropy of activation demonstrate the importance of steric hindrance in the hydrogen abstracting step. 2,3-Diphenylbutane as model compound for head to head links in polystyrene exhibits low reactivity, whereas 2,5-diphenylhexane, a mode…

Tuning the hydrogen bonding strength in 2,6-bis(cycloalkylcarbonylamino)pyridine assemblies by variable flexibility. Association constants measured b…

2011

International audience; The association of 2,6-bis(cycloalkylcarbonyloamino)pyridines with rigid and non-rigid counterparts was studied in chloroform solution by 1H NMR and computational methods. The angles within the cycloalkyl ring and rotation of these substituents determine the strength of the association via triple hydrogen-bonding. The dimerization and methyl-methyl repulsion have been addressed as mechanisms restricting heterocomplexation of diacetamide. The association constants obtained by the shift changes of hydrogen-bonded protons are in agreement with those of methine protons. This "dual shift" method was proposed as an additional verification of association constants obtained …
