Observing ligand 1H NMR signals while conditions (e.g., analytical concentrations, pH) are changed in an aqueous metal–proton–ligand system is one of the most potent methods of elucidating the precise details of speciation in such systems. Typically this is performed by changing the conditions in a solution reservoir, while withdrawing a sample for NMR analysis at each stage. However, such sample preparation is tedious and time-consuming. We report here studies, using a Mitsubishi RM-101 laboratory robot, of the feasibility of completely automating such a procedure. A simple acid–base study is used to evaluate performance.

Glucosylation of the cis- and trans-isomers of 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)cyclohexan-1-ol (1a/1b, 2a/2b, 1a or 2a) was performed to prepare the corresponding alkyl β-D-glucopyranosides, mainly to get analytical data of pure enantiomers of the glucosides (3a-6b), required for subsequent investigations of related compounds with biological activity. One of the employed modifications of the Koenigs-Knorr synthesis resulted in achieving 85-95% yields of pure β-anomers 3a/3b, 4a/4b, 3a or 4a of protected intermediates, with several promoters and toluene as solvent, yielding finally the deprotected products 5a/5b, 6a/6b, 5a or 6a as pure β-anomers. To obtain enantiomerically pure β-anomers of the target structure (3a, 4a, 5a and 6a) for unambiguous structure assignment, an enzymic reduction of 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)cyclohexan-1-one by Saccharomyces cerevisiae whole cells was performed to get (1S,2S)- and (1S,2R)-enantiomers (1a and 2a) of 2-(4-methoxybenzyl)cyclohexan-1-ol. The opposite enantiomers of alkyl β-D-glucopyranosides (5b and 6b) were obtained by separation of the diastereoisomeric mixtures 5a/5b and 6a/6b by chiral HPLC. All stereoisomers of the products (3a-6b) were subjected to a detailed 1H NMR and 13C NMR analysis.

N,O-Carboxymethyl chitosans were synthesized by the reaction between shrimp, crab and squid chitosans with monochloroacetic acid under basic conditions at 50°C. The mole ratio of reactants was obtained from various reaction conditions of shrimp chitosan polymer and oligomer types. The mole ratio 1:12:6 of chitosan:sodium hydroxide:monochloroacetic acid was used for preparing carboxymethyl of chitosan polymer types while carboxymethyl of chitosan oligomer types were used the mole ratio 1:6:3 of chitosan:sodium hydroxide:monochloroacetic acid. The chemical structure was analyzed by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and proton nuclear magnatic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR). The FT-IR was used for confirm the insertion of carboxymethyl group on chitosan molecules. The 1H-NMR was used for determining the degree of substitution (DS) of carboxymethylation at hydroxyl and amino sites of chitosans. Carboxymethyl chitosan samples had the total DS of carboxymethylation ranging from 1.0-2.2. The highest of DS of carboxymethylation was from shrimp chitosan oligomer type.

Antiaromatic molecules have recently been proven to display unique properties such as small HOMO–LUMO gaps, ambipolar carrier transporting and [Formula: see text]-stack-induced aromatic stabilizations. These intriguing properties have been demonstrated by stable antiaromatic molecules that exhibit a distinct antiaromatic character. Di-peri-dinaphthoporphyrins are peripherally [Formula: see text]-extended porphyrinoids that exhibit a planar structure and a distinct antiaromatic character stemming from their 24[Formula: see text] electron circuit. Herein, we report an alkyl-substituted di-peri-dinaphthoporphyrin Ni(II) complex 5Ni bearing less peripheral bulkiness as compared with phenyl-substituted ones. 5Ni displayed upfield-shifted [Formula: see text]H NMR signals due to [Formula: see text]-protons, indicating its distinct antiaromaticity, and a slightly shorter intermolecular packing distance (ca. 3.402 Å) in the solid state. Cyclic voltammetry shows a larger potential difference between the first and second oxidation waves, implying that this molecule tends to stack favorably in its oxidized state.
