Formation of simple organic molecules in the interstellar medium

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF QUANTUM CHEMISTRY, Issue 3 2008
Abraham F. Jalbout
Abstract In this work we present a methodology for the synthesis of simple molecules from basic formaldehyde (H2CO) precursors. We have approached this challenging problem by considering a basic dimerization scheme that eventually leads to diose and methyl formate, using an HCO+ proton source. This species was chosen due to its ample abundance in the atmosphere. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2008 [source]


Pentacyclic Compounds by Samarium Diiodide-Induced Cascade Cyclizations of Naphthyl-Substituted 1,3-Diones

ADVANCED SYNTHESIS & CATALYSIS (PREVIOUSLY: JOURNAL FUER PRAKTISCHE CHEMIE), Issue 1 2008
Ulrike
Abstract Treatment of naphthyl-substituted cyclopentane-1,3-diones with the samarium diiodide- hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) complex in the presence of tert -butyl alcohol provided the expected tetracyclic diols with steroid-like structures. Surprisingly, reactions without the proton source led to the efficient formation of a new pentacyclic diol. In this case the toxic additive HMPA could be substituted by a combination of lithium bromide (in situ generation of samarium dibromide) and N,N -dimethylimidazolidone. The styrene-like alkene moiety of this product was used to prepare an ensemble of highly substituted pentacyclic steroid-like compounds. [source]


Applications of silver nanoparticles capped with different functional groups as the matrix and affinity probes in surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight and atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization ion trap mass spectrometry for rapid analysis of sulfur drugs and biothiols in human urine

RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY, Issue 18 2008

A strategy is presented for the analysis of sulfur drugs and biothiols using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) capped with different functional groups as the matrix and affinity probes in surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF MS) and atmospheric pressure-matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization ion trap mass spectrometry (AP-MALDI-ITMS). Biothiols adsorbed on the surface of AgNPs through covalent bonding were subjected to ultraviolet (UV) radiation that enabled desorption and ionization due to the excellent photochemical property of NPs. The proposed method has been successfully applied for the determination of cysteine and homocysteine in human urine samples using an internal standard. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) for cysteine and homocysteine in urine sample are 7 and 22,nM, respectively, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of <10%. The advantages of the present method compared with the methods reported in the literature for biothiol analysis are simplicity, rapidity and sensitivity without the need for time-consuming separation and tedious preconcentration processes. Additionally, we also found that the bare AgNPs can be directly used as the matrix in MALDI-TOF MS for the analysis of sulfur drugs without the addition of an extra proton source.

Why Platinum Catalysts Involving Ligands with Large Bite Angle Are so Efficient in the Allylation of Amines: Design of a Highly Active Catalyst and Comprehensive Experimental and DFT Study

CHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 32 2008
Guilhem Mora
Abstract The platinum-catalyzed allylation of amines with allyl alcohols was studied experimentally and theoretically. The complexes [Pt(,3 -allyl)(dppe)]OTf (2) and [Pt(,3 -allyl)(DPP-Xantphos)]PF6 (5) were synthesized and structurally characterized, and their reactivity toward amines was explored. The bicyclic aminopropyl complex [Pt(CH2CH2CH2NHBn- , - C,N)(dppe)]OTf (3) was obtained from the reaction of complex 2 with an excess of benzylamine, and this complex was shown to be a deactivated form of catalyst 2. On the other hand, reaction of complex 5 with benzylamine and allyl alcohol led to formation of the 16-VE platinum(0) complex [Pt(,2 -C3H5OH)(DPP-Xantphos)] (7), which was structurally characterized and appears to be a catalytic intermediate. A DFT study showed that the mechanism of the platinum-catalyzed allylation of amines with allyl alcohols differs from the palladium-catalyzed process, since it involves an associative ligand-exchange step involving formation of a tetracoordinate 18-VE complex. This DFT study also revealed that ligands with large bite angles disfavor the formation of platinum hydride complexes and therefore the formation of a bicyclic aminopropyl complex, which is a thermodynamic sink. Finally, a combination of 5 and a proton source was shown to efficiently catalyze the allylation of a broad variety of amines with allyl alcohols under mild conditions. [source]
