- PublicationAccès libreAn Unexpected Tandem Reaction between N-Butadienyl-N-alkylketeneN,0-Trimethylsilylacetals of Propionamide and Activated Dienophiles like N-Phenylmaleimide or Acryloyl Chloride(1993)
;Baak, Marcel ;Rubin, Yves ;Franz, Andreas; ;Bigler, Laurant ;Nachbauer, JürgenStarting from the N-butadienyl-N-alkylpropionamides 1a-1c the corresponding N,0-trimethylsilylacetals could be obtained using the mixture ofLDA and trimethylsilyl chloride in THF. The unexpected reaction sequence Diels-Alder reaction/acylation between the N-butadienyl-N-alkylketene N,0-trimethylsilylacetal ofpropionamide (2a-2b) and N-phenylmaleimide produced tricyclic products rac-5a -rac-5b and bicyclic products rac-6a - rac-6b with high diastereoselectivity. The reaction of the N,0-trimethylsilylacetals 2a and 2c with acryloyl chloride in a similar sequence gave the bicyclic products rac-8a and mc-8c. The stepwise synthesis of bicyclic systems of this general structure could only be successfully executed in 26 yield treating the Diels-Alder product rac-10 with LDA. - PublicationAccès libreCarbonate binding to copper(II) in solution: mixed-ligand complex formation and its application to the isolation and separation of the three isomers of [Cu(bpp)(H2O)][ClO4]2 [bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrrolidin-2-yl)pyridine](2002)
;Bernauer, Klaus ;Godefroy, Isabelle; ;Guicher, Nathalie; The binding of the carbonate anion to [Cu(meso-bpp)(H2O)]2+ and rac-[Cu(bpp)(H2O)]2+ [bpp = 2,6-bis(pyrrolidin-2-yl)pyridine] in aqueous solution has been investigated. Formation constants of the carbonato complexes [Cu(meso-bpp)(CO3)] and rac-[Cu(bpp)(CO3)] (1.02 × 103 M–1 and 1.77 × 103 M–1, respectively, µ= 0.70 M) have been calculated from spectrophotometric measurements. The formation of these Cu2+ complexes can also be used for an improved synthesis and an easy isolation of the three diastereoisomers of bpp. The mixture of [Cu(meso-bpp)(H2O)]2+ and rac-[Cu(bpp)(H2O)]2+ is separated by elution from SP Sephadex C-25, either as hydroxo or carbonato derivatives. rac-[Cu(bpp)(H2O)]2+ is then resolved into the enantiomers [Cu(S,S-bpp)(H2O)]2+ and [Cu(R,R-bpp)(H2O)]2+, again on SP Sephadex C-25, by means of L-(+)-tartrate as chiral eluent. The three stereoisomers, meso-bpp, (S,S)-bpp and (R,R)-bpp are liberated from the corresponding copper(II) complexes by ligand displacement using trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N’,N’-tetraacetic acid (H4cdta). The structure of the meso isomer was solved by a single crystal X-ray analysis using the perchlorate salt [meso-bppH2][ClO4]2•2H2O. - PublicationAccès libreThe Synthesis of a Pyrazol Analogon of Porphobilinogen with the Help of the Mukaiyama Aldol Reaction(2003)
;Chaperon, André ;Bertschy, Hugo ;Franz-Schrumpf, Anne-Laurence ;Hugelet, Bertrand ;Neels, Antonia; The synthesis of a pyrazol analogon of porphobilinogen is described. The Mukaiyama crossed aldol reaction is the key step of our approach. The retrosynthetic analysis follows the mechanism for the biosynthesis of porphobilinogen initially proposed by Shemin. - PublicationAccès libreDinuclear iron, ruthenium and cobalt complexes containing 1,4-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane ligands as well as carboxylato and oxo or hydroxo bridges(2006)
;Romakh, Vladimir B.; ;Labat, Gael; ;Shul’pin, Georgiy B.The reaction of 1,4-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (L–Me2) with FeSO4 • 7H2O in aqueous ethanol gives, in the presence of sodium carboxylates, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide and KPF6, the dinuclear Fe(III)–Fe(III) complex cations [(L–Me2)2Fe2(O)(OOCR) 2]2+ (R = H: 1, R = CH3: 2, R = C6H5: 3), which crystallise as the hexafluorophosphate salts. The corresponding reaction with RuCl3 • nH2O does not work, however, the analogous Ru(III)–Ru(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Ru2 (O)(OOCCH3)2]2+ (5) can be synthesised by reacting Ru(dmso)4Cl2 with L–Me2, HCl and air in refluxing ethanol, followed by addition of sodium acetate, the mononuclear intermediate (L–Me2)RuCl3 • H2O (4) being also isolated and characterised. The reaction of L–Me2, sodium acetate, hydrogen peroxide and triethylamine with CoCl2 • 6H2O in acetonitrile yields, however, the hydroxo-bridged Co(III)–Co(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Co2 (OH)(OOCCH3)2]3+ (6). The molecular structures of 2, 5 and 6, solved by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses of the hexafluorophosphate salts, reveal for the orange crystals of [2][PF6]2 a Fe–Fe distance of 3.104(1) Å, for the purple crystals of [5][PF6]2 a Ru–Ru distance of 3.230(1) Å, and for the violet crystals of [6][PF6]3 • (CH3)2CO a Co–Co distance of 3.358(1) Å. All six complexes show catalytic activity for the oxidation of isopropanol with hydrogen peroxide in water to give acetone in the presence of ascorbic acid as co-catalyst. - PublicationAccès libreFramework Fluxionality of Organometallic Oxides : Synthesis, Crystal Structure, EXAFS, and DFT Studies on [{Ru(η6-arene)}4Mo4O16] Complexes(2003)
;Laurencin, Danielle ;Fidalgo, Eva Garcia ;Villanneau, Richard ;Villain, Françoise ;Herson, Patrick ;Pacifico, Jessica; ;Bénard, Marc ;Rohmer, Marie-Madeleine; Proust, AnnaReactions of the molybdates Na2MoO4•2 H2O and (nBu4N)2[Mo2O7] with [{Ru(arene)Cl2}2] (arene=C6H5CH3, 1,3,5-C6H3(CH3)3, 1,2,4,5-C6H2(CH3)4) in water or organic solvents led to formation of the triple-cubane organometallic oxides [{Ru(η6-arene)}4Mo4O16], whose crystal and molecular structures were determined. Refluxing triple cubane [{Ru(η6-C6H5CH3)}4Mo4O16] in methanol caused partial isomerization to the windmill form. The two isomers of [{Ru(η6-C6H5CH3)}4Mo4O16] were characterized by Raman and Mo K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), both in the solid-state and in solution. This triple-cubane isomer was also used as a spectroscopic model to account for isomerization of the p-cymene windmill [{Ru(η6-1,4-CH3C6H4CH(CH3)2)}4Mo4O16] in solution. Using both Raman and XAS techniques, we were then able to determine the ratio between the windmill and triple-cubane isomers in dichloromethane and in chloroform. Density functional calculations on [{Ru(η6-arene)}4Mo4O16] (arene=C6H6, C6H5CH3, 1,3,5-C6H3(CH3)3, 1,4-CH3C6H4CH(CH3)2, C6(CH3)6) suggest that the windmill form is intrinsically more stable, provided the complexes are assumed to be isolated. Intramolecular electrostatic interactions and steric bulk induced by substituted arenes were found to modulate but not to reverse the energy difference between the isomers. The stability of the triple-cubane isomers should therefore be accounted for by effects of the surroundings that induce a shift in the energy balance between both forms. - PublicationAccès libreOxidative functionalisation of alkanes: synthesis, molecular structure and catalytic implications of anionic vanadium(V) oxo and peroxo complexes containing bidentate N,O ligands(1999)
; ;Stanislas, Sandrine ;Shulpin, Georgiy B. ;Nizova, Galina V.; ;Neels, Antonia; Claude, SaturninA mixture of [NBu4][VO3] and pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (Hpca) in acetonitrile catalysed smoothly the reaction of alkanes RH (R = CH3 or C6H11) with molecular oxygen (from air) and hydrogen peroxide to give the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxide ROOH as the primary product. The oxo and peroxo anions [VO2(pca)2]– and [VO(O2)(pca)2]–, isolated as the tetrabutylammonium or ammonium salts from acetonitrile solution and fully characterised by single crystal structure analyses, are assumed to be involved in the catalytic process. A screening of different N,O ligands showed Hpca to be the best co-catalyst, while anthranilic acid (Hana) proved to be almost inactive. The isolation and crystal structure analysis of the analogous oxo compound [NBu4][VO2(ana)2] showed a fundamental difference in the co-ordination of the bidentate N,O ligands which might explain the different catalytic activities: while in [VO2(pca)2]– the two pca ligands are bonded through a nitrogen and an oxygen atom (N,O co-ordination), in [VO2(ana)2]– the two ana ligands are co-ordinated via two oxygen atoms of the carboxylato group (O,O co-ordination). - PublicationAccès libreAxial versus equatorial coordination of thioether sulfur: Mixed ligand copper(II) complexes of 2-pyridyl-N-(2′-methylthiophenyl)-methyleneimine with bidentate diimine ligands(2006)
;Balamurugan, Ramalingam ;Palaniandavar, Mallayan; Neuburger, MarkusThe synthesis, structure and spectral and redox properties of the copper(II) complexes [Cu(pmtpm)Cl2] (1) and [Cu(pmtpm)2](ClO4)2 (6), where pmtpm is the linear tridentate ligand 2-pyridyl-N-(2′-methylthiophenyl)methyleneimine containing a thioether and two pyridine donors, are described. Also, the mixed ligand complexes [Cu(pmtpm)(diimine)](ClO4)2 (2–5), where the diimine is 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) (2), 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) (3), 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (2,9-dmp) (4) or dipyrido-[3,2-d:2′,3′-f]-quinoxaline (dpq) (5), have been isolated and studied. The X-ray crystal structures of the complexes 1, [Cu(pmtpm)(2,9-dmp)](ClO4)2 4 and 6 have been successfully determined. The complex 1 possesses a trigonal bipyramidal distorted square based pyramidal (TBDSBP) coordination geometry in which three corners of the square plane are occupied by two nitrogens and thioether s of pmtpm ligand and the remaining equatorial and the axial positions by two chloride ions. The complex 4 contains a CuN4S chromophore also with a TBDSBP coordination geometry in which two nitrogens and the thioether sulfur of pmtpm ligand occupy three corners of the square plane. One of the two nitrogens of 2,9-dmp ligand is equatorially coordinated and the other axially to copper. On the other hand, the complex 6 is found to possess a square based pyramidal distorted trigonal bipyramidal (SPDTBP) coordination geometry. The CuN2S trigonal plane in it is comprised of the pyridine and imine nitrogens and the thioether sulfur of the pmtpm ligand. The pyridine nitrogens of the ligand occupy the axial positions and the second thioether sulfur remains uncoordinated. On long standing in acetonitrile solution the mixed ligand complexes 2 and 3 undergo ligand disproportionation to provide the corresponding bis-complexes of bpy and phen, respectively, and 6. The electronic and EPR spectral parameters and the positive redox potential of complex 4 are consistent with the equatorial location of the thioether sulfur in the square-based coordination geometry around copper(II). On the other hand, the higher g and lower A values and lower E1/2 values for the complexes 2, 3 and 5 are consistent with the axial coordination of the thioether sulfur. Also, the Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox potentials increase with increase in number of aromatic rings of the diimine ligand. The steric and electronic effects of the bidentate diimine ligands in orienting the thioether coordination to axial or equatorial position are discussed. - PublicationAccès libreAn efficient one-pot synthesis of strongly fluorescent (hetero)arenes polysubstituted with amino and cyano groups(2008)
;Yi, Chenyi ;Blum, Carmen ;Liu, Shi-Xia ;Frei, Gabriela ;Neels, Antonia; ;Leutwyler, SamuelDecurtins, SilvioAn efficient one-pot synthesis simultaneously results in three types of densely substituted mono-, di- and tetracyclic π-systems, which can easily be isolated. Each chromophore presents a strong fluorescence emission, either in the red, green or blue part of the spectrum. - PublicationAccès libreThe gas-solid interface The Interaction of Argon, Xenon and Sulfur Hexafluoride with Rhombic Sulfur(1975)
; Further theoretical calculations have been carried out for the adsorption potentials of Ar on the (011) face of rhombic sulfur, and for Xe and SF6 on the (011) and (111) faces. By using the same sites for the three molecules and pair-potentials of the Lennard-Jones type, specific scaling factors were found. These are constant within 5-10%, for each adsorbate, and therefore the distribution curves of the adsorption potentials of simple molecules on crystalline sulfur are related in a simple way. The influence of the size of the molecule and the local geometry of the surface is also discussed. - PublicationAccès libreSynthesis, crystal structures and spectra of Hg(II)-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane monoxide complexes: Monomer and polymer formation(2007)
;Ebrahim, Mothi Mohamed ;Neels, Antonia; Panchanatheswaran, KrishnaswamyThe reaction of mercury(II) halides with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane monoxide (dppeO) in 1:1 molar ratio yielded P,O-coordinated polymers having the empirical formula [HgX2 (dppeO)]n [X = Cl (1), Br (2), I (3)]. In contrast, the reaction between the same reactants in a 1:2 molar ratio yielded the P, P-coordinated monomeric complexes, HgX2 (dppeO)2[X = Cl (4), Br (5), I (6)]. The structures of 2, 3, 4 and 5 have been characterized crystallographically. The results indicate that the geometry around the mercury atom in each of these molecules is tetrahedral with considerable distortion. The 31P NMR spectra of the 1:1 complexes indicate the dissociation of the Hg–O bond in solution.
