Structure of bottle-brush polymers in solution: A Monte Carlo test of models for the scattering function

2008

Extensive Monte Carlo results are presented for a lattice model of a bottle-brush polymer under good solvent or Theta solvent conditions. Varying the side chain length, backbone length, and the grafting density for a rigid straight backbone, both radial density profiles of monomers and side chain ends are obtained, as well as structure factors describing the scattering from a single side chain and from the total bottle-brush polymer. To describe the structure in the interior of a very long bottle-brush, a periodic boundary condition in the direction along the backbone is used, and to describe effects due to the finiteness of the backbone length, a second set of simulations with free ends of…

O-Ribosyl-phosphate purine as a constant modified nucleotide located at position 64 in cytoplasmic initiator tRNAsMetof yeasts

1991

The unknown modified nucleotide G*, isolated from both Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Torulopsis utilis initiator tRNAs(Met), has been identified as an O-ribosyl-(1"----2')-guanosine-5"-phosphate, called Gr(p), by means of HPLC, UV-absorption, mass spectrometry and periodate oxidation procedures. By comparison with the previously published structure of Ar(p) isolated from Saccharomyces cerevisiae initiator tRNA(Met), the (1"----2')-glycosidic bond in Gr(p) has been postulated to have a beta-spatial conformation. The modified nucleotide Gr(p) is located at position 64 in the tRNA(Met) molecules, i.e. at the same position as Ar(p). Since we have also characterized Gr(p) in Candida albicans ini…

Theoretical study of the OH addition to the endocyclic and exocyclic double bonds of the d-limonene

2005

Abstract The initial step of the d-limonene + OH gas-phase reaction mechanism was investigated by means of ab initio calculations. We have considered eight different possibilities for the OH addition, corresponding to the two C–C double bonds, the two C atoms of each double bond, and the syn or anti orientation, with respect to the isopropenyl group (endocyclic attack) or the ring cycle (exocyclic attack). Activation energies calculated at the QCISD(T)/6-31G(d)//UMP2/6-31G(d) level, show that there are preferred orientations for the OH addition under atmospheric conditions of temperature and pressure.

The reaction of LiR with M(η5:η1:η1-C5Me4SiMe2NCH2CH2OMe)Cl2 (1, M = Zr (a), Hf (b)) gives the isolable, thermally stable complexes M(η5:η1:η1-C5Me4SiMe2NCH2CH2OMe)R2 (R = Et (2), nPr (3), nBu(4)), which contain two alkyl ligands with β-hydrogen atoms.

A New Building Block for Organometallic–Inorganic Hybrid Polymers: The Mixed Group 15/16 Element Ligand Complex [Cp* 2 Mo 2 (μ,η 2:2 ‐PSe) 2 (μ‐Se)] …

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of [Cp*2Mo2P2Se3] (1; Cp* = C5Me5) and its use as a molecular building block in the formation of copper(I) halide polymers is described. The reaction of 1 in CH2Cl2 with 2 equiv. of CuBr and CuI in CH3CN under diffusion conditions gave [(Cp*2Mo2P2Se3)2(CuBr)2] (2) and [(Cp*2Mo2P2Se3)(CuX)3(CH3CN)]n (X = I; 3/4), respectively. The structure of 2 is distinguished by a central Cu2Br2 ring coordinated on each side by a tripledecker complex through one of its P atoms. A 2D network is formed by weak interactions between Se atoms of neighboring molecules. Compound [(Cp*2Mo2P2Se3)(CuI)3(CH3CN)]n exists in two isomeric forms 3 and 4. The crystal struc…

The role of the transfer group in the intramolecular [5+2] cycloadditions of substituted β-hydroxy-γ-pyrones: a DFT analysis

2005

The intramolecular [5+2] cycloaddition reactions of a series of 3-OR (R=SiMe3, H, CHO, Me) substituted β-hydroxy-γ-pyrones bearing tethered alkenes were studied using DFT methods at the B3LYP/6–31G* level. The role of the transfer R group was analyzed considering two alternative channels: (i) in channel a the process is initialized by the transfer of the R group with formation of an oxidopyrylium ylide intermediate, which is followed of an intramolecular [5+2] cycloaddition; (ii) in channel b, the process is initialized by the intramolecular [5+2] cycloaddition on the γ-pyrone followed by the transfer of the R group.

(1aR,2aS,5aS,5bS)-Perhydro-4H-oxireno[3,4]cyclopenta[1,2-b]furan-4-one

2007

The structure of the title compound, C7H8O3, was determined in the course of our studies of the synthesis of cyclopenta[1,2-b]furan-4-one derivatives. The molecule has four chiral C atoms. The X-ray crystal structure analysis shows the compound to possess an epoxide group with an endo orientation with respect to the lactone group.

Methyl 3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate

2018

The title compound, C10H12O3, crystallizes in the orthorhombicP212121space group. The structure contains a phenolic group with the OH being coplanar with the phenyl ring. The structure exhibits significant hydrogen bonding between the O—H group of one molecule and the CO group of an adjacent one. These O—H...O=C interactions form chains of molecules parallel to thebaxis. No π–π or C—H...π intermolecular interactions are observed.
