Crystal structure of the dimeric beta-cyclodextrin complex with 1,12-dodecanediol.

Abstract

The structure of the complex of beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) with 1,12-dodecanediol has been determined at 173 K and refined to a final R=0.0615 based on 22,386 independent reflections. The complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1; with a=17.926(4), b=15.399(3), c=15.416(3) A, alpha=103.425(4), beta=113.404(4), gamma=98.858(4) degrees, D(c)=1.362 Mg cm(-3) and V=3651.4(13) A(3) for Z=1. One molecule of the diol is located as a guest in the hydrophobic cavity of a beta-CD-dimer, forming a [3]pseudorotaxane. The guest molecule shows a disorder over two positions. The hydroxyl groups of the diol emerge from the primary faces of the beta-CD dimer and form several hydrogen bonds with water molecules lying in the interstitial space, similarly to dimeric complexes of beta-CD with other alpha,omega-bifunctional guests.

Intermolecular electrophilic O-amination of alcohols.

We report the first examples of an intermolecular electrophilic O-amination of aliphatic alcohols. Thus, the new reagents, fluorenone oxime tosylate, 5a, or mesylate, 5b, permit O-amination of diverse alcohols in the presence of NaH under mild conditions. By following the formation of the resulting oxime ethers, 6, the reaction was shown to be sensitive to steric effects in the alcohol. Furthermore, the presence of an aromatic ring or of a double bond in the alcohol molecule (benzyl, allyl) was found to increase the reaction rate.

Asymmetric amplification in catalysis by trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane bistriflamide.

A strong asymmetric amplification is observed in the addition of diethylzinc on aromatic aldehydes in the presence of the bistriflamide of trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane 3a. The asymmetric amplification originates from the insolubility of the catalyst precursor 3a of low enantiomeric excess (ee), with a concomitant large increase of ee for the minor soluble part of 3a. Controlled mono-N-acetylation of 3a (20% ee) at -78 degrees C allowed isolation of 4 possessing 90% ee. [reaction: see text].

Anionic four-electron donor-based palladacycles as catalysts for addition reactions of arylboronic acids with alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones, aldehydes, and alpha-ketoesters.

Anionic four-electron donor-based palladacycle-catalyzed 1,4-additions of arylboronic acids with alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones and 1,2-additions of arylboronic acids with aldehydes and alpha-ketoesters are described. Our study demonstrated that palladacycles were highly efficient, practical catalysts for these addition reactions. The work described here not only opened a new paradigm for the application of palladacycles, but may also pave the road for other metalacycles as practically useful catalysts for such addition reactions including asymmetric ones.
