Catalytic Enantioselective α-Oxysulfonylation of Ketones Mediated by Iodoarenes
2008
The alpha-oxysulfonylation of ketones catalysed by enantioenriched iodoarenes using mCPBA as stoichiometric oxidant is reported to give useful synthetic intermediates in good yield and modest enantioselectivity. We believe this to be the first report of an enantioselective organocatalytic reaction involving hypervalent iodine reagents which should open up a new field for enantioselective organocatalysis of oxidation reactions.
Squarate and croconate in designing one- and two-dimensional oxamidato-bridged copper(II) complexes: synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic prope…
2001
Abstract The reaction of squarate (C4O42–, dianion of 3,4-dihydroxycyclobut-3-ene-1,2-dione) and croconate (C5O52–, dianion of 4,5-dihydroxycyclopent-4-ene-1,2,3-trione) with the dinuclear 〚Cu2(apox)〛2+ copper(II) complex 〚H2apox = N,N’-bis(3-aminopropyl)oxamide〛 in aqueous solution affords the compounds of formula 〚Cu2(apox)(C4O4)(H2O)2〛n·n H2O (1) and 〚Cu4(apox)2(C5O5)2〛·6 H2O (2). Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, space group C2/c, with a = 12.5527(9), b = 7.4161(6), c = 18.5198(12) A, β = 100.578(6)° and Z = 4.

The structure of polymeric diaquo-di-μ-hydroxo-bis-μ-(nicotinato-N-oxide)-bis-μ-(nicotinato-N-oxide)tricopper(II)
1981
Abstract The new unusual polymeric copper(II) complex with nicotinate N-oxide (N-nicO), [Cu3(N-nicO)4(OH)2(H2O)2]n was prepared and its crystal and molecular structure was determined from three-dimensional X-ray diffraction data. The crystals belong to the triclinic space group P 1 (No. 2). The cell parameters are a = 7.881(9), b = 9.658(11), c = 10.368(12) A, α = 97.32(9), β = 110.38(9), γ = 109.53(9)°, V = 670(1) A3, dobs = 1.94 (dcalc = 2.02) and Z = 1. The structure was refined to a final R-value of 4.13%. The complex is a polymeric, linear chain along the c-axis, and its structure units are connected with each other through two N-oxide oxygen atoms. There are three copper atoms (Cu1, C…
Antimony-121 Mössbauer and infrared spectral studies on 1,10-phenanthroline adducts of antimony(III) halides
1983
Abstract The syntheses of the mono-adducts of 1,10-phenanthroline with SbX 3 (X = F, Cl, Br) and PhSbI 2 are described. These compounds and the 1:1 adduct between 2,2′-bipyridine and PhSbI 2 have been characterized mainly in the solid state by infrared and Mossbauer spectroscopic techniques. The structures of the antimony trihalide complexes appear to be based on halogen bridged polymers in which the stereochemical activity of the lone pair of electrons varies with the halogen, the highest p-character of the lone pair being observed with the trifluoride adduct. Mossbauer results for the PhSbI 2 complexes suggest a ψ-octahedral stereochemistry with the lone pair and the Ph group in trans pos…
Raman and theoretical study of the solvent effects on the sizable intramolecular charge transfer in the push-pull 5-(dimethylamino)-5'-nitro-2,2'-bit…
2006
In this paper, we analyze the degree of intramolecular charge transfer in a push-pull π-conjugated system, 5-(dimethylamino)-5'-nitro-2,2'-bithiophene, from changes in frequencies and relative intensities of its strongestRaman scatterings in a bunch of solvents with different polarities. Density functional theory (DFT) was used as a support of the experimental study. Solvent effects on the molecular and electronic structures and on the vibrational properties were estimated by performing B3LYP/6-31G** calculations within the framework of the polarized continuum model (PCM) developed by Tomasi. Calculations reveal that the molecule is highly polarized in the ground state and behaves as a very…
Photoinduced phenomena in corona poled polar organic films.
2005
Abstract Organic materials have received considerable attention because of their large dipole moments and optical nonlinearities. The optically induced switching of material properties is important for studying the optoelectronic effects including second harmonic generation. Organic materials for photonic applications contain chromophore dipole which consist of acceptor and donor groups bridged by a delocalized π-electron system. Both theoretical and experimental data show a reversible highly dipolar photoinduced intra molecular charge transfer in betaine type molecules accompanied by change of the sign and the value of the dipole moment. The arrangement of polar molecules in films is studi…
Dissociative charge transfer from highly excited Na Rydberg atoms to vibrationally excited Na2 molecules
2001
Abstract We report the observation of the vibrational dependence of dissociative charge transfer (DCT), Na2(X1Σg+, v″) + Na∗∗(nl) → Na− + Na + Na+, in a single Na/Na2 supersonic beam at low intrabeam collision energies (1.6 meV) using the STIRAP technique for selective vibrational excitation of Na2 in the electronic ground state and time-of-flight mass analysis of the ions. The efficiency of this process increases by about an order of magnitude in the range 13 ≤ v″ ≤ 22. Some perspectives are discussed regarding the implementation of a field-free ion-imaging technique for the detection of ions that will allow the direct determination of the kinetic energy distributions of product negative i…
Raman spectroscopy and crystal-field split rotational states of photoproducts CO and H2 after dissociation of formaldehyde in solid argon.
2012
Raman signal is monitored after 248 nm photodissociation of formaldehyde in solid Ar at temperatures of 9-30 K. Rotational transitions J = 2 ← 0 for para-H(2) fragments and J = 3 ← 1 for ortho-H(2) are observed as sharp peaks at 347.2 cm(-1) and 578.3 cm(-1), respectively, which both are accompanied by a broader shoulder band that shows a split structure. The rovibrational spectrum of CO fragments has transitions at 2136.5 cm(-1), 2138.3 cm(-1), 2139.9 cm(-1), and 2149 cm(-1). To explain the observations, we performed adiabatic rotational potential calculations to simulate the Raman spectrum. The simulations indicate that the splitting of rotational transitions is a site effect, where H(2) …
Localized excitation effect on dipole moments of oligophenylenevinylenes in their excited Franck–Condon state
2010
Abstract The results from electrooptical absorption measurements (EOAM) on the ground and excited Franck–Condon state dipole moments of oligophenylenevinylenes in 1,4-dioxane and cyclohexane are presented. The dipole moments of quadrupolar dyes in the ground state are not equal zero. This means that one of the functional end groups of these molecules is not on the axis or on the plane with the central part of the molecule. Such a conclusion is confirmed by the quantum-chemical and semi-empirical recalculations. Owing to disorder in the ground-state geometry of the dyes the π–π conjugated system is located on mostly the plane part of the molecule and in the main this part absorbs the light. …
Second harmonic generation in SiO2 sol-gel films functionalized with Ethyl-[4-(4-nitro-phenylazo)-phenyl]-(2-oxiranylmethoxy-ethyl)-amine (ENPMA) mol…
2010
Abstract High concentrations of Ethyl-[4-(4-nitro-phenylazo)-phenyl]-(2-oxiranylmethoxy-ethyl)-amine (ENPMA) chromophores were linked covalently to two different kinds of SiO 2 matrices prepared by the sol–gel method. The matrices differed in their reticulation level, determined by the organometallic precursor used during the synthesis. The materials were deposited as films by spin-coating. The chromophores in the films were oriented in a non-centrosymmetric way by a modified Corona poling set-up, and the nonresonant second order non-linear optical coefficient d 33 (0) of the films was determined by means of the Maker fringe technique. It was found that there is an optimum concentration of …
