<p>The masked Ti(II) synthon (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(<i>η</i><sup>6</sup>-Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti (<b>1</b>) oxidatively adds across thiophene to give ring-opened (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti[<i>κ</i><sup>2</sup>-<i>S</i>(CH)<sub>3</sub><i>C</i>H] (<b>2</b>). Complex <b>2</b> is photosensitive, and upon exposure to light, reductively eliminates thiophene to regenerate <b>1</b> – a rare example of early-metal mediated oxidative-addition/reductive-elimination chemistry. DFT calculations indicate strong titanium π-backdonation to the thiophene π*-orbitals leads to the observed thiophene ring opening across titanium, while a proposed photoinduced LMCT promotes the reverse thiophene elimination from <b>2</b>. Finally, pressurizing solutions of <b>2 </b>with H<sub>2</sub> (150 psi) at 80 °C leads to the hydrodesulfurization of thiophene to give the Ti(IV) sulfide (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti(S) (<b>3</b>) and butane. </p>

An attempt has been made to assess the validity of applying the frictional and viscous coefficients of bulk water to the movement of water and solutes through the urinary bladder of the toad. The temperature dependence of diffusion of THO, C14-urea, C14-thiourea, and net water transfer across the bladder was determined in the presence and absence of vasopressin. The activation energy for diffusion of THO was 9.8 kcal per mole in the absence of vasopressin and 4.1 kcal per mole with the hormone present. Activation energies simultaneously determined following vasopressin for diffusion and net transfers of water were similar, and in the same range as known activation energies for diffusion and viscous flow in water. Urea had activation energies for diffusion of 4.1 and 3.9 kcal per mole in the absence and presence of vasopressin, respectively. Thiourea had a high activation energy for diffusion of 6.3 kcal per mole, which was unchanged, 6.6 kcal per mole, following hormone. These findings suggest that in its rate-limiting permeability barrier, water is present in a structured state, offering a high resistance to penetration by water. Vasopressin enlarges the aqueous channels so that the core of water they contain possesses the physical properties of ordinary bulk water. Urea penetrates the tissue via these aqueous channels while thiourea is limited by some other permeability barrier.

AbstractStimulated by a report from (R. Köster, G. Benedikt, M. A. Grassberger, Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1968, 719, 187.) on a carbaborane, for which the structure of 2,3,4,5,-tetraethlyl-1-methyl-2,5-μ-(ethyl-1′,1′-diyl)-1-carba-arachno-pentaborane(10) 1 was proposed, an independent synthesis was developed. Diethyl(ethynyl)borane was generated in situ in the presence of a large excess of “Et2B–H” (hydride bath) by ethynyl/H exchange, using ethynyl(trioctyl)tin to react in a mixture with diethyl(vinyl)borane at low temperature. Hydroboration and Et2B–H-catalysed condensation afforded 1, as shown by 11B, 13C NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. Thermal degradation of 1 gave 2,3,4-triethyl-1,5-dimethyl-1,5-dicarba-closo-pentaborane(5), whereas the pentaethyl-1,5-dicarba-closo-pentaborane(5) resulted from thermally induced decomposition of other suitably substituted arachno carbaboranes.

The Nicholas-type macrocyclization through NH-tosyl functional group has been found to be an efficient technique for the synthesis of a 10-membered azaenediyne system annulated with a benzothiophene. To compare the activity of azaenediyne synthesized with similar oxa- and carbocyclic enediynes the Bergman cyclization activation energies and the ability of enediynes to cleave DNA (pBR322 plasmid) were investigated. The order of reactivity predicted by DFT calculations (N-enediyne < C-enediyne < O-enediyne) was confirmed by DSC analysis data. Surprisingly azaenediyne was found to be more active in the DNA cleavage assay than the C-analogue.

AbstractIn a search for stable phosphinonitrenes generated by thermally induced decomposition of the azidophosphines 8a, b, different cyclodiphosp(V)azene products were generated. While in the case of 8a the expected phosphinonitrene dimer 10 could be obtained, from 8b, which has the sterically more demanding TMP substituents, product 11, was obtained and characterized. DFT calculations have revealed that the primarily formed phosphinonitrene 9b is unstable against loss of TMP˙, and the resulting radical dimerizes to the biradicaloid 1,3-diaza-2,4-diphosphetane-2,4-diyl 13. Compound 13 then dimerizes after ring opening, yielding in the ring system, which provides the final product upon reaction with the starting azidophosphine.
