    Double Ring-Closing Metathesis Reaction of Nitrogen-Containing Tetraenes: Efficient Construction of Bicyclic Alkaloid Skeletons and Synthetic Application to Four Stereoisomers of Lupinine and Their Derivatives

    CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 13 2004
    Shengming Ma Prof.
    Abstract The double ring-closing metathesis reaction of nitrogen-containing tetraenes was studied. The selectivity of the fused/dumbbell-type products can be controlled by the electronic/steric effects of the substituents attached to the CC bonds and the s - cis/s - trans conformational ratios of the substrates. This methodology has also been successfully applied to the enantioselective synthesis of four stereoisomers of lupinine and their derivatives. [source]


    Indenylidene-Ruthenium Complexes Bearing Saturated N-Heterocyclic Carbenes: Synthesis and Catalytic Investigation in Olefin Metathesis Reactions

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 3 2008
    Stijn Monsaert
    Abstract The synthesis of complexes of the general formula Cl2Ru(SIMes)(L)(3-phenylinden-1-ylidene) (5, L = PCy3; 6, L = py; and 7, L = PPh3) from Cl2Ru(PR3)2(3-phenylinden-1-ylidene) (2a, R = Ph; 2b, R = Cy) is reported. This family of olefin metathesis catalysts was fully characterized (1H, 13C and 31P NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis) and provided excellent activity in the ring-opening metathesis polymerization of 1,5-cyclooctadiene and the ring-closing metathesis of diethyl diallylmalonate. Comparison with the corresponding benzylidene-containing catalysts, 1a,c and 8b, established the decisive role of the carbene ligand on the procedure of the reaction and led to the observation of an unusual catalytic phenomenon, here called "self-inhibition".(© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    Synthesis of a Hexadentate Hexameric Aluminum Imide and Its Metathesis Reactions

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 3 2003
    N. Dastagiri Reddy
    Abstract The reaction of AlH3·NMe3 with one equivalent of 2-cyanothiophene in toluene afforded [HAlNCH2(C4H3S)]6 (2) in good yield. Treatment of 2 with SiMe3Br and SiMe3Cl in toluene under refluxing conditions resulted in the formation of compounds [BrAlNCH2(C4H3S)]6 (3) and [ClAlNCH2(C4H3S)]6 (4), respectively. In a similar way [PhC,CAlNCH2(C4H3S)]6 (5) was readily obtained from the reaction between 2 and PhC,CH. When 2 was treated with PhSH the Al-N cluster core dissociated and a four-membered ring compound [(PhS)2AlNHCH2(C4H3S)]2 (6) was formed. In contrast, a similar hexameric aluminum imide (HAlNCH2Ph)6 (1) retains its Al-N network when treated with PhSH to yield (PhSAlNCH2Ph)6 (7). An exchange of ethyl groups and hydrides occurred when 2 was treated with excess of ZnEt2, forming [EtAlNCH2(C4H3S)]68. Compounds 2,4 and 6,8 were characterized by X-ray single-crystal analysis.

    Phenylphosphoric Acid as a New Additive to Inhibit Olefin Isomerisation in Ruthenium-Catalysed Metathesis Reactions

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 6 2007
    Nélida Gimeno
    Abstract A systematic study of the ruthenium-catalysed metathesis of alkenes containing hydrogen-bonding substituents (namely urea and thiourea groups) is presented. Under standard metathesis conditions, several of the substrates under study undergo alkene isomerisation instead of the targeted metathesis. However, in the course of these investigations it has been established that this unwanted isomerisation process can be suppressed by addition of phenylphosphoric acid to the reaction mixture. Some other potential isomerisation inhibitors (e.g. benzoic acid and salts of phosphoric acid) have been studied and their performance compared to that of phenylphosphoric acid. To extend the scope of phenylphosphoric acid, we also studied the metathesis of 1,3-diallylurea. Interestingly, not only did we observe the complete suppression of the isomerisation process, but also that it is possible to obtain instead of the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) product,ADMET oligomers resulting from the cross-metathesis of diallylurea at higher concentrations.

    Straightforward Synthesis of Labeled and Unlabeled Pyrimidine d4Ns via 2,,3, - Diyne seco Analogues through Olefin Metathesis Reactions

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2003
    Isabelle Gillaizeau
    Abstract The synthesis of dideoxynucleosides (ddNs) or didehydro-dideoxynucleosides (d4Ns) from nucleosides has been extensively reviewed. While previously described methods are based on the modification of the 2,- and/or 3,-OH group of the intact ribose moiety, the use of a ring-closing metathesis (RCM) for the formation of the unsaturated cyclic system of nucleosides could be a straightforward approach to the d4Ns. Thus, as part of our drug labeling program, this paper reports a straightforward synthesis of 2,,3,-didehydro-2,,3,-dideoxyuridine (d4U) and [1,,2,,3,,4,,5,- 13C5,6- 13C,1,3- 15N2]d4T using the RCM protocol. This paper discusses the preparation of nucleoside dienes and the activity of ruthenium-based metathesis catalysts. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2003) [source]


    Mixed Isobutylphobane/N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ruthenium- Indenylidene Complexes: Synthesis and Catalytic Evaluation in Olefin Metathesis Reactions

    ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 11-12 2010
    Xavier Sauvage
    Abstract Two new second generation ruthenium(II) dichloride-indenylidene complexes [RuCl2(9-isobutylphosphabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane)(NHC)(3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)], where NHC=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene (SIMes) or its unsaturated imidazol-2-ylidene analogue (IMes), were isolated in high yields upon heating a tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution of the diphosphane complex [RuCl2(isobutylphobane)2(3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)] with a two-fold excess of the corresponding imidazol(in)ium-2-carboxylate zwitterions. Both products were characterized by 1H, 13C, and 31P,NMR spectroscopy, and the molecular structure of [RuCl2(isobutylphobane)(SIMes)(3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)] was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. A close inspection of the packing structure revealed the presence of different types of intra- and intermolecular interactions that enhanced the global stability of the crystals, while low temperature NMR experiments showed the existence of two distinct rotational isomers due to the unsymmetrical nature of the phobane ligand. The catalytic activity of both compounds was assessed in olefin metathesis using benchmark ring-opening metathesis polymerization, ring-closing metathesis (RCM), and cross-metathesis reactions, and compared with those of related first and second generation ruthenium-benzylidene and indenylidene catalyst precursors. Kinetic studies confirmed the high thermal stability of the mixed isobutylphobane/N-heterocyclic carbene complexes, which suffered from a slow initiation efficiency compared to other catalytic systems based on the tricyclohexylphosphane ligand. However, the remarkable robustness of [RuCl2(isobutylphobane)(SIMes)(3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)] was beneficial for performing the RCM of diethyl 2,2-bis(2-methylallyl)malonate. Monitoring the formation of the ruthenium-methylidene active species [RuCl2(isobutylphobane)(SIMes)(CH2)] derived from this precursor further demonstrated its ability to sustain long reaction times and high temperatures required to carry out the RCM of tetrasubstituted olefins.

    Surface-Grafted Multiporphyrin Arrays as Light-Harvesting Antennae to Amplify Photocurrent Generation

    CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 19 2005
    Mitsuhiko Morisue Dr.
    Abstract Organized multiporphyrin arrays were developed on the conductive surface by a novel coordination-directed molecular architecture aiming at efficient photoelectric conversion. The basic strategy employs the mutual coordination of two imidazolylporphyrinatozinc(II) units to form a cofacial dimer. Thus, meso,meso -linked bis(imidazolylporphyrinatozinc) (Zn2(ImP)2) was organized onto imidazolylporphyrinatozinc on the gold substrate as a self-assembled monolayer. The organized Zn2(ImP)2 bearing allyl side chains was covalently linked by ring-closing olefin metathesis catalyzed with Grubbs catalyst. Alternating coordination/metathesis reactions allow the stepwise accumulation of multiporphyrin arrays on the gold electrode. A successive increase in absorption over a wide wavelength range occurred after each accumulation step of Zn2(ImP)2 on the gold electrode, and cathodic photocurrent generation was enhanced in the aqueous electrolyte system, containing viologen as an electron carrier. The significant increase of the photocurrent indicates that the multiporphyrin array works as a "light-harvesting antenna" on the gold electrode. [source]


    Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Tetrakis(arylamidine)nickel(II) Chloride and Bis[2,4-dipyridyl-1,3,5-triazapentadienato]nickel(II)

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 2 2004
    Jianping Guo
    Abstract The reaction of LiN(SiMe3)2 with arylnitrile, followed by the addition of anhydrous NiCl2 gives ionic complexes of the general formula [Ni{H2NC(Ar)=NH}4]Cl2 (Ar = Ph 1, p -tolyl 2). When the above reaction is carried out with cyanopyridine instead of arylnitrile under the same reaction conditions, neutral complexes of the general formula [{HN=C(Py)N=C(Py)NH}2Ni] (Py = 4-pyridyl, 3; 3-pyridyl, 4] are obtained. Compound 1 undergoes a metathesis reaction with sodium benzoate to give the neutral complex [(PhCO2)2Ni {H2NC(Ph)=NH}4] (5). Magnetic susceptibility measurements show that 1,4 are diamagnetic and that 5 is paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons. These results suggest that 1,4 are d8 square-planar complexes and 5 is an octahedral complex. The solid state structures of compounds 1,5 were determined by X-ray crystallography. Structural analyses reveal that 1 and 2 form a one-dimensional network through charge-assisted hydrogen bonds; whereas 5 forms a one-dimensional network through hydrogen bonds only. In complexes 3 and 4, the 2,4-dipyridyl-1,3,5-triazapentadienyl ligand behaves as a bidentate ligand forming a six-membered ring with the metal ion. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

    A Metathesis Approach for the Preparation of Polyhydroxylated Compounds as Head Groups in Surfactant Synthesis

    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 4 2006
    Kristina Neimert-Andersson
    Abstract Starting from methyl-,- D -glucopyranoside, an efficient protocol for the preparation of polyhydroxylated surfactant head-groups is demonstrated and applied in the synthesis of a typical surfactant. The key transformation is a metathesis reaction between two monosaccharide residues to afford an octahydroxydecen. The importance of a strategic protecting-group constellation for a successful metathesis reaction is also investigated. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006) [source]
