Syntheses and crystal structures of four new organotin complexes with Schiff bases containing triazole

Four new organotin complexes, namely [(Bu2Sn)(2)O(EtO)(L1)](2) (1), [(Bu2Sn)(2)O(EtO)(L2)](2) (2), [(Bu2Sn)(2)O(EtO)(L-3)](2) (3) and [Ph3Sn(L4)]center dot 0.5H(2)O (4), were obtained by reactions of Bu2SnO and Ph3SnOH with 4-phenylideneamino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (HL1), 4-furfuralideneamino-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (HL2), 4-(2-thienylideneamino)-3-ethyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (HL3) and 4-(3,5-di-t-butylsalicylideneamino)-3-ethyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thione (HL4). Compounds 1-4 were characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Complexes 1-3 show similar structures containing a Sn4O4 ladder skeleton in which each of the exo tin atoms is bonded to the N atom of a corresponding thione-form deprotonated ligand. Complex 4 shows a mononuclear structure in which the tin atom of triphenyltin group is coordinated by the S atom of a thiol-form L4(-) anion.

稀土氯化物催化合成降冰片烯衍生物

将稀土氯化物作为Diels-Alder环加成反应的催化剂,在缓和条件下制得了几种降冰片烯衍生物。稀土氯化物不仅提高了反应速度,而且还改变了产物的构型比(endo/exo)。由试验的几种稀土氯化物的结果,可以看出催化活性有随稀土元素原子序数递增而增加的趋势。降低反应温度有利于内型产物的生成。比较了催化与非催化反应的活化能和级数。

Purification and characterization of two types of chitosanase from a Microbacterium sp.

Two extracellular chitosanases (ChiX and ChiN) were extracted from Microbacterium sp. OU01 with Mr values of 81 kDa (ChiX) and 30 kDa (ChiN). ChiN was optimally active at pH 6.2 and 50 degrees C and ChiX at pH 6.6 and 60 degrees C (assayed over 15 min). Both the activities increased with the degree of deacetylation (DDA) of chitosan. ChiN hydrolyzed oligomers of glucosamine (GlcN) larger than chitopentaose, and chitosan with 62-100% DDA; but ChiX acted on chitosan and released GlcN. Hydrolysis of chitosan with 99% DDA by ChiN released chitobiose, chitotriose and chitotetraose as the major products.
