2009

Abstract Reactions of nBu2SnCl(L1) (1), where L1 = acid residue of 5-[(E)-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-diazenyl]quinolin-8-ol, with various substituted benzoic acids in refluxing toluene, in the presence of triethylamine, yielded dimeric mixed ligand di-n-butyltin(IV) complexes of composition [nBu2Sn(L1)(L2–6)]2 where L2 = benzene carboxylate (2), L3 = 2-[(E)-2-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-1-diazenyl]benzoate (3), L4 = 5-[(E)-2-(4-methylphenyl)-1-diazenyl]-2-hydroxybenzoate (4), L5 = 2-{(E)-4-hydroxy-3-[(E)-4-chlorophenyliminomethyl]-phenyldiazenyl}benzoate (5) and L6 = 2-[(E)-(3-formyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-diazenyl]benzoate (6). All complexes (1–6) have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, 1H,…

Desulfurization and ring opening of thiirane induced by tantalocene trihydride complexes: Synthesis, reactivity and X-ray structure of Cp′2Ta(=S)(S-i…

1999

The reaction of the tantalocene trihydride complexes Cp′ 2 TaH 3 1 (Cp′= η 5 -C 5 H 4 t Bu) or Cp″CpTaH 3 1′ (Cp″= η 5 -C 5 H 2 -1,2-Me 2 -4- t Bu) with propylene sulfide was found to proceed via an unprecedented sulfur transfer and regioselective ring opening reaction at once to yield sulfido-thiolato tantalocene complexes Cp′ 2 Ta(S)(S- i Pr) 2a whose structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography or Cp″CpTa(S)(S- i Pr) 2′a . Complex 1 reacts with ethylene sulfide to give Cp′ 2 Ta(S)(S–Et) 2b . The reactivity of 2a towards a variety of electrophilic moities has been investigated: protonation (with HBF 4 ) and alkylation (with MeI) reactions occur at the terminal sulfur ligand, …

Synthesis and stereochemical studies of 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives

2000

A series of new 2-substituted thiazolidine-4-carboxamide derivatives which have potentially useful immunological properties, have been synthesized in a stereoselective manner by coupling 2-subsituted thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acids with amines or amino esters. The structure of these compounds was established by combination of NMR methods and by X-ray analysis.

Intermolecular oxidative dehydrogenative 3,3′-coupling of benzo[b]furans and benzo[b]thiophenes promoted by DDQ/H+: total synthesis of shandougenine B

2016

With an excess of a strong acid, 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-quinone (DDQ) is shown to promote metal-free intermolecular oxidative dehydrogenative (ODH) 3,3'-coupling of 2-aryl-benzo[b]furans and 2-aryl-benzo[b]thiophenes up to 92% yield as demonstrated with 9 substrates. Based on the analysis of oxidation potentials and molecular orbitals combined with EPR, NMR and UV-Vis observations, the studied reaction is initiated by a DDQ-substrate charge transfer complex and presumably proceeds via oxidation of the substrate into an electrophilic radical cation that further reacts with another molecule of a neutral substrate. The coupling reactivity can easily be predicted from the oxidation potent…

Stereochemical features of the hydrolysis of 9,10-epoxystearic acid catalysed by plant and mammalian epoxide hydrolases

2002

cis-9,10-Epoxystearic acid was used as a tool to probe the active sites of epoxide hydrolases (EHs) of mammalian and plant origin. We have compared the stereochemical features of the hydrolysis of this substrate catalysed by soluble and membrane-bound rat liver EHs, by soluble EH (purified to apparent homogeneity) obtained from maize seedlings or celeriac roots, and by recombinant soybean EH expressed in yeast. Plant EHs were found to differ in their enantioselectivity, i.e. their ability to discriminate between the two enantiomers of 9,10-epoxystearic acid. For example, while the maize enzyme hydrated both enantiomers at the same rate, the EH from soybean exhibited very high enantioselecti…

1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition Reactions of Indan-1-one Enamines across Arylnitrile Oxides Leading to Novel Cyclic Isoxazoline Derivatives

2013

Synthesis of a series of cyclic fused-isoxazolines has been accomplished by regioselective and diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 3-methylindan-1-one enamines (1a, 1b, 1c) and 3-phenylindan-1-one enamines (2a, 2b, 2c) to arylnitrile oxides (3d, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3h). The structure of the cycloadducts was elucidated by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The proposed regio- and stereochemistry of fused-compounds (4) and (5) has also been corroborated by two single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies carried out on 4-methyl-8b-morpholinyl-3-(p-tolyl)-4H-3a,8b-dihydroindeno[2,3-d]isoxazoline (4be) and 3-(p-anisyl)-4-phenyl-8b-pyrrolidinyl-4H-3a,8b-dihydroindeno[2,3-d]isoxazoline (5af) and by mea…

Il caracol quadrato in Sicilia (XVI secolo)

2022

Square spiral staircases appear in Sicily during the 16th century in different contexts and for different purposes. This contribution focuses on two case studies at the “opposite poles” of a casuistry that shares the common characteristics of suspended ramps revolving within a square masonry box around a central void. By analysing these cases we find a probable link with models from Spain. At the same time, they demonstrate a common descent from a constructive culture rooted in the Spanish and Mediterranean stereotomic experience of the early modern age.

The first synthesis of strapped cyclam porphyrins is described ; these will be studied as dioxygen carriers as well as cytochrome C oxidase models. The original derivatives are characterized by mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The cofacial conformation of the two different macrocycles is confirmed by 1H NMR data.
