Marie Curie Symposium 8.-9.12.2011 Helsingissä : tiivistelmät

Suomalaista radiokemiaa esittelevä Marie Curie Symposium järjestetään Helsingissä 8.-9.12.2011 osana Kansainvälistä Kemian Vuotta 2011. Samalla juhlistetaan Marie Curien sata vuotta sitten, 10.12.1911, saamaa kemian Nobel-palkintoa. Marie Curie, maailman ensimmäinen radiokemisti, sai Nobel-palkintonsa luonnossa olevien radioaktiivisten alkuaineiden poloniumin ja radiumin keksimisestä. Tämä raportti sisältää symposiumissa esitettyjen tieteellisten tiedonantojen tiivistelmät

Radical Annulation Strategy to Chiral Pupukeanones: Total Synthesis of (+)-10-ex&l(- Naphthyl)pupukean-9-onea nd (+)-lO-exo-l(- Naphthyl)-5-epipupukean-9-ones1

Intramolecular alkylation reaction of the bromoenone 12, obtained from S-carvone in three steps, furnished the bicyclo[2.2.2]octenone 13. Contrary to the anticipated radical annulation reaction, the bicyclic bromides 14 and 15, obtained from the enone 13, generated exclusively the cyclopropane product 18 via a 3-exo-trig radical cyclization on reaction with nBu3SnH and AIBN, even in the presence of a large excess of a radicophile. On the other hand, bromoenone 24, synthesized from R-carvone via S-naphthylcarvone 21, underwent radical annulation reaction in the presence of radicophiles to furnish the isotwistanes 25-28 in a regio- and stereospecific manner. Hydrogenation of the olefin 34, obtained from the diketone 27 via a regiospecific Wittig reaction, furnished the naphthyl-5-epipupukean-9-one 33, whereas stereoselective hydrogenation of the enone 36, prepared from the keto ester 25 via a Grignard reaction and dehydration sequence, generated the naphthylpupukeanone 32.

Chiral Synthons from Carvone. Part 10. Synthesis of (+)-(1S,3S,4S,7S, 8R)-5,7-Dimethyl-10-oxatetracyclo-(5.3.0.03,5,04,8)decan-9-one.

Degradation of the tolyl group in the tricyclic ketone 1b followed by stereospecific reduction of the resultant ketoester (6) furnishes the title compound (4) containing a new tetracyclic framework, establishing the stereochemistry of the aryl group in 1.

On kuhnels 9-vertex complex projective plane

We present an elementary combinatorial proof of the existence and uniqueness of the 9-vertex triangulation of C P2. The original proof of existence, due to Kuhnel, as well as the original proof of uniqueness, due to Kuhnel and Lassmann, were based on extensive computer search. Recently Arnoux and Marin have used cohomology theory to present a computer-free proof. Our proof has the advantage of displaying a canonical copy of the affine plane over the three-element field inside this complex in terms of which the entire complex has a very neat and short description. This explicates the full automorphism group of the Kuhnel complex as a subgroup of the automorphism group of this affine plane. Our method also brings out the rich combinatorial structure inside this complex.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Possible Diastereomers of Heptadeca-1-ene-4,6-diyne-3,8,9,10-tetrol; Putative Structure of a Conjugated Diyne Natural Product Isolated from Hydrocotyle leucocephala

Enantioselective synthesis of possible diastereomers of heptadeca-1-ene-4,6-diyne-3,8,9,10-tetrol, a structure proposed for the natural product isolated from Hydrocotyle leucocephala is accomplished. The reported spectral data of the natural product did not match those of any of the isomers that were synthesized and established that the structure proposed for the natural product is not correct and requires revision.

Structure of 9[alpha],19-dihydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione

C19H26O4, M(r) = 318.41, orthorhombic, P2(1)2(1)2(1), a = 10.591 (1), b = 11.133 (1), c = 13.657 (2) angstrom, V = 1610.29 angstrom 3, Z = 4, D(m) (flotation in KI) = 1.301, D(x) = 1.313 g cm-3, Mo K-alpha, lambda = 0.7107 angstrom, mu = 0.85 cm-1, F(000) = 688, T = 293 K, R = 0.057 for 1253 significant reflections. The A ring is disordered with atoms C(2) and O(19) occupying two possible sites. The molecules are held together by a hydrogen bond [O(9)...O(17) = 2.89 angstrom].

Intramolecular Reactivity - Keto Participation in the Hydrolysis of N-Methyl-N-(9-Oxobicyclo[3.3.1]Nonan-2-Alpha-YL) Morpholinium Iodide, and A Cannizzaro-Type Reaction of 3-(2-Oxocyclohexyl)Propanal

Mechanistic studies of two intramolecular processes, nucleophilic displacement of N-methylmorpholinium in N-methyl-N-{9-oxobicyclo[3,3,1]nonan-2 alpha-yl}morpholinium iodide, anchimerically assisted by keto carbonyl, and a Cannizzaro-type reaction of 3-(2-oxocyclohexyl)propanal, occurring via axial hydride transfer onto the cyclohexanone, are reported.

NaBH4 reduction of a cage dione proceeds in a stereospecific fashion to give the endo,endo-diol. This reactivity is related to the crystal structure.

LiSr1.65 square 0.35B1.3B ' O-1.7(9) (B = Ti, Zr; B ' = Nb, Ta): New lithium ion conductors based on the perovskite structure

We describe the design and synthesis of new lithium ion conductors with the formula, LiSr(1.65)rectangle(0.35)B(1.3)B'O-1.7(9) (rectangle = vacancy; B = Ti, Zr; B' = Nb, Ta), on the basis of a systematic consideration of the composition-structure-property correlations in the well-known lithium-ion conductor, La-(2/3-x)Li(3x)rectangle((1/3)-2x)TiO3 (I), as well as the perovskite oxides in Li-A-B,B'-O (A = Ca, Sr, Ba; B = Ti, Zr; B' = Nb, Ta) systems. A high lithium-ion conductivity of ca. 0.12 S/cm at 360 degrees C is exhibited by LiSr(1.65)rectangle(0.35)Ti(1.3)Ta(1.7)O(9) (III) and LiSr(1.65)rectangle(0.35)Zr(1.3)Ta(1.7)O(9) (IV), of which the latter containing stable Zr(IV) and Ta(V) oxidation states is likely to be a candidate electrolyte material for all-solid-state lithium battery application. More importantly, we believe the approach described here could be extended to synthesize newer, possibly better, lithium ion conductors.

Structure of 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9-hexadecafluorodecyl 1,10-ditosylate by X-ray crystallography and F-19-NMR spectroscopy

2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9-hexadecafluorodecyl 1,10-ditosylate and its precursors were synthesized and characterized by H-1- and F-19-NMR spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. These compounds are building blocks for the syntheses of the surfactants containing polyperfluoromethylene spacer. The molecule has extended all-trans conformation with molecular symmetry (1) over bar (C-i). There is a reasonably strong C-H ... O interaction in the crystal and there are two F ... F intermolecular contact distances less than the sum of van der Waals radii. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
