The anticancer ruthenium-arene compd. [Ru(η6-C6H5CF3)(pta)Cl2] (pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo[3.3.1.1]decane), termed RAPTA-CF3, with the electron-withdrawing α,α,α-trifluorotoluene ligand, is one of the most cytotoxic RAPTA compds. known. To ration ...
N-[2-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]pyrrole was found to be amenable to selective a-metalation. Trapping with a variety of electrophilic reagents afforded the expected products with moderate to high yields. Derivs. formed by treatment of the organometallic intermed ...
An improved synthesis of pincer ligand bis[(2-dimethylamino)phenyl]amine (MeN2NH) was reported. Reaction of the Li complex of MeN2N with suitable Pd, Pt, and Ru precursors gave the corresponding metal complexes. The structures of the Pd, Pt, and Ru complex ...
Glycoproteins and glycolipids are major components of the outer surface of mammalian cells. Their carbohydrate moieties, which are directed into the outer environment, serve as ligands for receptor proteins, such as lectins, pathogen proteins and antibodie ...
Eight ethers, nine esters and one ketone were submitted to a systematic structural variation by replacing a hydrogen atom in the vicinity of the oxo function by fluorine and Me. As long as steric factors dominate, a fluorine substituent alters the olfactor ...
Enantiomerically pure (-)-(1R,4R,5R,6S)- and (+)-(1S,4S,5S,6R)-7-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-5,6-exo-isopropylidenedioxy-7- azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-one ((-)-3 and (+)-3) have been obtained from the Diels-Alder adduct of N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)pyrrole and 2-bromo ...
Silyl enol ethers of esters, ketones, as well as allylstannane and allylsilanes react with sulfur dioxide activated with t-BuMe2SiOSO2CF3 to give silyl sulfinates that can be reacted in the same pot with a variety of electrophiles generating the correspond ...
A dimeric composition of the formula: wherein L', L'', L''', and L'''' are each a bidentate ligand having at least one functional substituent, the ligand selected from bipyridine, phenanthroline, 2-phenylpyridine, bipyrimidine, and bipyrazyl and th ...
The title compound 4a, a purple transient whose main UV-vis absorption band occurs near 490 nm (epsilon = 5000 M-1 cm-1), has been generated by irradiation of 2,3,5,6-tetramethylene-7-oxonorbornane (5a). It has been observed directly by immobilization in f ...
