Abstract

The capability of the cholestanic moiety to induce a prevalent screw sense on the tropos unit of biphenyl phosphite was investigated to obtain bile acid-based biphenyl phosphites to be used in asymmetric catalysis. The bile acid moiety is capable of exerting asymmetric induction on the sense of twist of the biphenyl unit of the biphenyl phosphite appendage linked at the position 3 at low temperature (-80 degree Celsius), affording a prevalence (65:35) of one diastereoisomer on the other.

Abstract

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigations on mixtures containing octakis(3-O-butanoyl-2,6-di-O-pentyl)-γ-cyclodextrin (Lipodex E) and each enantiomer of methyl-2-chloropropionate (MCP) ascertained the role of trace amounts of water in the enantiodiscrimination processes. Water is deeply included into the cyclodextrin and favors the formation of the inclusion complex with (S)-MCP, whereas (R)-MCP is only slightly affected, thus causing a significant increase of NMR differentiation. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to shed light on the possible behavior of Lipodex E in different conditions (i.e., solvent, inclusion complexes), providing energetic and atomistic details that are in agreement with NMR observations.

5. Alder-ene addition of maleic anhydride to polyisobutene: Nuclear magnetic resonance evidence for an unconventional mechanism

Abstract

In this work, the thermal Alder-ene functionalization of highly reactive, vinylidene-terminated, polyisobutene (PIB) with stoichiometric amounts of maleic anhydride at 200 °C was investigated by NMR spectroscopy. The thorough interpretation of the complex NMR spectra of PIB derivatives collected at different reaction times (from 4 to 21 h) was based on the combined use of one- and two-dimensional techniques which allowed the precise structure of all the reaction products as well as their relative content to be ascertained. The analysis evidenced the formation of large amounts of derivatives generated by the classic Alder-ene mechanism and involving the more reactive vinylidene 'exo' double bonds of PIB. More interestingly, the investigation also the investigation allowed also to detect the formation of a noteworthy amount of not expected structure generated by the thermal maleination of the less reactive PIB 'endo' ?-form provided by the isomerization of residual PIB 'exo' ?-form during the functionalization reaction. © 2012 Society of Chemical Industry.

11. C11 vs C9 carbamoylation of quinine: a new class of versatile polyfunctional chiral solvating agents

Author

Uccello-Barretta G., Mirabella F., Balzano F., and Salvadori P.

Abstract

Carbamoyl derivatives of quinine obtained by derivatization of its double bond have been prepared and used as chiral solvating agents for NMR spectroscopy: their efficiency reproduces very well that of quinine and its C9 carbamates in enantiodiscriminating underivatized and derivatized chiral substrates, respectively.

Abstract

The ionic complex [PtCl3(C2H4)]-[(S,S)-(PhMeCH)2NH2]+ containing a chiral secondary amine is a new and versatile chiral derivatizing agent (CDA) for the determination of the enantiomeric composition of several unsaturated compounds including simple olefins:  the diastereoisomeric mixtures arising from the exchange of ethylene by the unsaturated analytes are easily detected by 195Pt NMR spectroscopy.
