Diastereomeric Excess (diastereomeric + excess)
Selected AbstractsStructural, Photophysical and Chiro-Optical Properties of Lanthanide Complexes with a Bis(benzimidazole)pyridine-Based Chiral LigandEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 22 2003Gilles Muller Abstract The neutral LnIII 1:1 nitrato complexes with the chiral ligand 2,6-bis(1- S -neopentylbenzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine (L11) have been synthesised and their stability constants measured in acetonitrile (log K1 = 4.0,6.4). The crystal and molecular structure of [Eu(NO3)3(L11)(MeCN)] shows the typical meridional planar coordination of L11 to the metal ion and low symmetry of the coordination polyhedron. The influence of the steric hindrance generated by the substituent at R2 on the crystal packing and bond lengths is discussed. Photophysical measurements show that ligand L11 induces a 3,,*-to-Ln energy-transfer process in the EuIII complex, while the TbIII compound is ten times less luminescent. Addition of a second molecule of L11 to give [Ln(ClO4)2(L11)2]+ leads to a large quenching of the EuIII luminescence (140-fold) due to several factors: a less efficient 1,,*,3,,* transfer (ca. fourfold), a smaller intrinsic quantum yield QEu (ca. threefold), and a substantially less efficient ligand-to-metal transfer (ca. 12-fold). In the case of the TbIII complex, the decrease in the energy of the triplet state reduces further the TbIII emission through increased back transfer. The specific rotary dispersion of the 1:1 and 1:2 complexes points to the chirality of the complexes arising mainly from the ligand, while the circularly polarized luminescence of these complexes with EuIII and TbIII displays a weak effect, pointing to a small diastereomeric excess in solution. Altogether, this study demonstrates that electronic, thermodynamic and photophysical properties of lanthanide complexes with aromatic terdentate ligands can be tuned by modifying the number and the arrangement of the ligands, as well as their substituents, particularly those in the R2 and R3 positions.

As versatile synthons chiral ,-amino imines 3 could be transformed into enantiomeric ,-amino ketone and chiral syn - or anti -1,3-diamines with high diastereomeric excess by hydrolysis or reduction, respectively. Moreover, the nucleophilic addition of organometallicreagents to chiral ,-amino imines 3 could provide 1,1,3-trisubstituted 1,3-diamines with high diastereoselectivities.

Reactions of 9 with diazomethane (10) and 2,4,6-trimethoxy-benzonitrile oxide (11), carried out under neutral conditions, gave the corresponding optically active spiro compounds 16-18 with low diastereoselectivity (20-30% diastereomeric excess). On the other hand, reactions of 9 with nitrile oxide 11 and nitrile imines 14, 15, carried out in the presence of a base, afforded racemic pyrazolo and isoxazolo fused 2-pyrrolidinones 21-23 in 82-86% diastereomeric excess. Optically active dipolarophile 9 was isomerized in the presence of basic alumina to give methyl (RS)-1- tert -butoxy-carbonyl-3-cyanomethyl-1,2-dihydro-2-oxo-5H -pyrrole-5-carboxylate (19). Treatment of the racemic dipolarophile 19 with dipoles 11 and 14, afforded fused 2-pyrrolidinones 23 and 21. These observations support compound 19 as the key-intermediate in the formation of racemic cycloadducts 21- 23.

Reactions of 3 with diazomethane (4) and nitrile oxides 5a-c afforded spirolactones 6,8 in 24-34% diastereomeric excess, while with diazomethane (4) in the presence of triethylamine, methyl 3-cyanomethyl-2-methoxyfuran-5-carboxylate (12) was obtained. [source] Synthesis of 14C-labelled EM-800 (SCH 57050) and EM-652·HCl (SCH 57068·HCl, acolbifene), pure selective estrogen receptor modulatorsJOURNAL OF LABELLED COMPOUNDS AND RADIOPHARMACEUTICALS, Issue 11 2004Jean-Yves Sancéau Abstract EM-800 (SCH 57050) and EM-652·HCl (SCH 57068·HCl, acolbifene) are orally active pure selective estrogen receptor modulators. The corresponding 14C2 -radiolabelled compounds 1 and 2 were synthesized for metabolic studies with uniform labelling of two carbons within the benzene ring of the 2H-1-benzopyran moiety by optical resolution of racemic (±)-[14C2]EM-343 4. This pivotal intermediate amine was prepared in 6 steps with 38% yield from commercially available [U- 14C2]resorcinol (3). Resolution by selective crystallization of the diastereomeric mixture of (S)-(+)-camphorsulfonates salts gave the desired (+)-[14C2]EM-652·(+)-CSA 13. Moreover, the racemic amine 4 was recovered from mother liquors by basic treatment, and resolved again. We obtained salt 13, at a 52% yield with 97% diastereomeric excess by repeating the resolution,racemization process. Finally, the corresponding dipivaloate (+)-[14C2]EM-800 1 and hydrochloride salt (+)-[14C2]EM-652·HCl 2 were prepared at respective specific activities of 19.7 and 24.5 µCi/mg with 96.3% radiochemical purity.

[source] Prediction of solvent effect on the reaction rate and endo/exo selectivity of a Diels,Alder reaction using molecular surface electrostatic potentialJOURNAL OF PHYSICAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 7 2003M. R. Gholami Abstract Molecular surface electrostatic potential was used to predict the solvent effect on the reaction rate, endo/exo selectivity and diastereomeric excess of a Diels,Alder reaction. It is shown that these quantities can be expressed in terms of molecular surface electrostatic potentials of solvents which are obtained computationally by the HF/6,31++G* procedure. Regression analyses and an experimental database are used to obtain analytical representation of rate constant, endo/exo selectivity and diastereomeric excess. The models obtained show that the hydrogen bond donor ability of solvents on the above mentioned properties is substantial, whereas solvophobicity only affects the reaction rate and endo/exo selectivity of the reaction.

[source] Hydrophobic Chemistry in Aqueous Solution: Stabilization and Stereoselective Encapsulation of Phosphonium Guests in a Supramolecular HostEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 22 2004Julia L. Brumaghim Abstract Encapsulation of guest molecules inside supramolecular host assemblies provides a way to stabilize reactive species in aqueous solution. The stabilization of reactive phosphonium/ketone adducts of the general formula [R1MeC(OH)PR3]+ by encapsulation as guest molecules within a [Ga4L6]12, tetrahedral metal,ligand assembly is reported; although these cations decompose in aqueous solution, encapsulation inside the hydrophobic cavity of the assembly lengthens their lifetimes considerably, in some cases up to weeks. By varying the phosphane (PMe3, PEt3, PPhMe2, and PPh2Me) and ketone (acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, 1,1,1-trifluoroacetone, and fluoroacetone) which form these adducts, as well as the pD of the solutions, it was determined that the pH of the solution as well as the size and shape of the guest cations play an important role in the stability of these host,guest complexes. Encapsulation of chiral guests in the chiral [Ga4L6]12, assembly results in the formation of diastereomers, as characterized by 1H, 19F, and 31P NMR spectroscopy. Although the [Ga4L6]12, assembly is formed from non-chiral ligands, the assembly itself has ,,,, or ,,,, chirality around the metal centers. Due to the chirality of this assembly, diastereomeric selectivity is observed upon initial guest encapsulation (typical diastereomeric excesses are 30,50%). This initial diastereomeric selectivity decreases over time to reach an equilibrium but does not become 1:1, indicating both kinetic and thermodynamic processes promote selective guest encapsulation. These experiments demonstrate further the applications of nanoscale reaction vessels, self-assembled by design from non-chiral ligands, in providing a chiral and hydrophobic environment for guest molecules in aqueous solution.
