, p. 676 - 684 (2017/11/16)
Seven OH-free and O -permethylated monofunctionalized calix[5]arenes carrying either additional methyl or tert -butyl groups are prepared following fragment condensation protocols. This strategy proves to be superior to previous approaches. Calix[5]arenes with free OH groups all adopt a cone conformation stabilized by a seam of hydrogen bonds at the lower rim. Post-condensation modifications, i.e., methylation of phenolic OH groups or functional group interconversions can also be achieved. Bulky tert -butyl groups are also found to stabilize the cone conformations of O -methylated compounds. These compounds offer versatile functional groups that make these concave molecules interesting building blocks for the synthesis of more sophisticated molecular architectures.

A newly developed stable chlorohydrosilane derived from pinacol is herein described. This was successfully used in the reduction of salicylaldehydes in reasonable to excellent yields (51–97 %). The ability of the hydrosilane to react as a reducing agent is increased upon the in situ formation of a trialkoxyhydrosilane and activation with a Lewis base, as further indicated by density functional theory studies. 1,3-Dimethyl-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone (DMPU) was identified to be a suitable catalyst for this metal-free reduction, promoting the regio- and chemoselective reduction of aldehydes in ortho-position to phenols, despite the presence of vicinal ketones. The performance of pinacol-derived chlorohydrosilane in the reduction of salicylaldehydes was further observed to be superior to that of well-established commercially available chlorohydrosilanes.

Water-promoted ortho-selective monohydroxymethylation of phenols in the NaBO2 system generates salicyl alcohols in 65-97% yields. A remarkable rate-enhancement by water was observed, and NaBO2 appeared to serve the dual role of a suitable base and an efficient chelating reagent. This protocol possesses many advantages such as short reaction times, expanded substrate scope, and high mono- and regio-selectivities. The experimental results were explained by the calculations based on local ionisation energy minima, leading to a possible reaction mechanism.

A series of N2O2 tripodal tetradentate ligands derived from di-/tetra-tert-butyl substituted 2-[bis(2-hydroxybenzyl) aminomethyl]X (X = pyridine and benzimidazole) (H2Ln (n = 1-4)) and 8-[bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzyl)]aminoquinoline (H 2L5) were synthesised through a 4-step reaction scheme involving sequential formylation, reduction, bromination and alkylation. Treatment of H2Ln (n = 1-5) with [WO2Cl 2(dme)] (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) in the presence of triethylamine gave the corresponding cis-dioxotungsten(vi) complexes [WO2(L n)] (n = 1-5). The corresponding molybdenum analogues [MoO 2(Ln)] (n = 1-5) were also prepared from the reaction of [MoO2(acac)2] (acac = acetylacetonate) with H 2Ln (n = 1-3) or [MoO2Cl2(dme)] (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane) with H2Ln (n = 4 and 5). All these compounds were fully characterised by a wide range of spectroscopic methods. The molecular structures of [MoO2(Ln)] (n = 2, 4) and [WO2(L2)] were also confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The catalytic activities of [MO2(L n)] (M = Mo, W; n = 1-4) towards epoxidation of styrene were also examined.
Mononuclear iron(III) complexes supported by tripodal N3O ligands: Synthesis, structure and reactivity towards DNA cleavage
Wong, Yee-Lok,Mak, Chun-Yin,Kwan, Hoi Shan,Lee, Hung Kay
experimental part, p. 1246 - 1253 (2010/07/05)
A new synthetic route to the known tripodal tetradentate N3O ligand L1 (HL1 = [N-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzyl)-N,N-di-(2-pyridylmethyl)]amine) is reported. The related compounds HLn (n = 2, 3) were prepared by a similar procedure. Treatment of HLn (n = 1-3) with FeCl3·6H2O in hot methanol led to the mononuclear iron(III) complexes [Fe(Ln)Cl2] (1: n = 1, 2: n = 2, 3: n = 3). The solid-state structures of complexes 1 and 2 were determined by X-ray crystallography. [Fe(L1)Cl2] (1) showed effective nuclease activity in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, converting supercoiled plasmid DNA to its linear form.
Interaction between biphenols and anions: Selective receptor for dihydrogenphosphate
Ito, Kazuaki,Nishiki, Makoto,Ohba, Yoshihiro
, p. 1352 - 1354 (2007/10/03)
Biphenol was shown to bind dihydrogenphosphate (H2PO 4-) selectively over various other anions (MeCO 2-, Cl-, Br-, I-, NO 3-, HSO4-). The highly selectivity of biphenol toward dihydrogenphosphate is explained in terms of the basicity and shape of the guest anion.
The separation and synthesis of lipidic 1,2- and 1,3-diols from natural phenolic lipids for the complexation and recovery of boron
Tyman, John H.P.,Mehet, Satinderjit K.
, p. 177 - 199 (2007/10/03)
A study has been made of the semi-synthesis of 1,3-diols (anacardic alcohols) from natural phenolic lipid resources from Anacardium occidentale and Anacardium giganteum which have given C15 and C11 derivatives, respectively. An isomeric 1,3-diol (isoanacardic alcohol) has been obtained from cardanol separated from technical cashew nut-shell liquid. Homologous1,3-diols have been synthesised from a range of synthetic 2-alkyl-, 3-alkyl- and 4-alkylphenols and from 6-alkylsalicylic acids. The natural 1,2-diol, urushiol, from Rhus vernicifera has been purified. All these lipidic compounds have been studied for their complexation and the potential recovery of boron as boric acid.
3,5-Di-(tert-Butyl)-6-fluoro-cycloSal-d4TMP - A Pronucleotide with a Considerably Improved Masking Group
Ducho, Christian,Wendicke, Silke,Goerbig, Ulf,Balzarini, Jan,Meier, Chris
, p. 4786 - 4791 (2007/10/03)
A new, considerably improved cycloSal masking group has been developed. This new group combines four desirable properties and has been attached to the anti-HIV drug 2′,3′-dideoxy-2′,3′-didehydrothymidine (d4T, 1) to give 3,5-(di-tert-butyl)-6-fluoro-cycloSal-d4TMP (2i). This phosphate triester has a reasonable chemical half-life, highly selectively released d4TMP, has poor - if any - inhibitory effect on butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and achieved the TK-bypass.
