These through-space NMR spectroscopic shielding (TSNMRS) values, which reflect the anisotropic effects, have been broken down into contributions from localized- and canonical molecular orbitals (LMOs and CMOs); these contributions revealed that the proton NMR spectroscopic chemical shifts of nuclei that are spatially close to the C?C double bond or the aromatic ring should not be explained in terms of the conventionally accepted p-electron shielding/deshielding effects. In fact, these effects followed the predictions only for the antiaromatic cyclobutadiene ring.}, language = {en} } @article{StojanovicMarkovicKleinpeteretal.2012, author = {Stojanovic, Milovan and Markovic, Rade and Kleinpeter, Erich and Baranac-Stojanovic, Marija}, title = {Synthesis of thiazolidine-fused heterocycles via exo-mode cyclizations of vinylogous N-acyliminium ions}, series = {Organic \& biomolecular chemistry : an international journal of synthetic, physical and biomolecular organic chemistry}, volume = {10}, journal = {Organic \& biomolecular chemistry : an international journal of synthetic, physical and biomolecular organic chemistry}, number = {3}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemistry}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1477-0520}, doi = {10.1039/c1ob06451g}, pages = {575 -- 589}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Syntheses of thiazolidine-fused heterocycles via exo-mode cyclizations of vinylogous N-acyliminium ions incorporating heteroatom-based nucleophiles have been examined and discussed. The formation of (5,6)-membered systems was feasible with all nucleophiles tried (O, S and N), while the closing of the five-membered ring was restricted to O- and S-nucleophiles. The closure of a four-membered ring failed. Instead, the bicyclic (5,6)-membered acetal derivative and the tricyclic system with an eight-membered central ring were obtained from the substrates containing O and S nucleophilic moieties, respectively. The reaction outcome and stereochemistry are rationalized using quantum chemical calculations at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The exclusive cis-stereoselectivity in the formation of (5,6)- and (5,5)-membered systems results from thermodynamic control, whereas the formation of the eight-membered ring was kinetically controlled.}, language = {en} } @article{BalciYaparAkkayaetal.2012, author = {Balci, Kubilay and Yapar, G. and Akkaya, Y. and Akyuz, S. and Koch, Andreas and Kleinpeter, Erich}, title = {A conformational analysis and vibrational spectroscopic investigation on 1,2-bis(o-carboxyphenoxy) ethane molecule}, series = {Vibrational spectroscopy : an international journal devoted to applications of infrared and raman spectroscopy}, volume = {58}, journal = {Vibrational spectroscopy : an international journal devoted to applications of infrared and raman spectroscopy}, number = {1-2}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0924-2031}, doi = {10.1016/j.vibspec.2011.11.011}, pages = {27 -- 43}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The minima on the potential energy surface of 1,2-bis(o-carboxyphenoxy)ethane (CPE) molecule in its electronic ground state were searched by a molecular dynamics simulation performed with MM2 force field. For each of the found minimum-energy conformers, the corresponding equilibrium geometry, charge distribution, HOMO-LUMO energy gap, force field, vibrational normal modes and associated IR and Raman spectral data were determined by means of the density functional theory (DFT) based electronic structure calculations carried out by using B3LYP method and various Pople-style basis sets. The obtained theoretical data confirmed the significant effects of the intra- and inter-molecular hydrogen bonding interactions on the conformational structure, force field, and group vibrations of the molecule. The same data have also revealed that two of the determined stable conformers, both of which exhibit pseudo-crown structure, are considerably more favorable in energy to the others and accordingly provide the major contribution to the experimental spectra of CPE. In the light of the improved vibrational spectral data obtained within the "SQM FF" methodology and "Dual Scale Factors" approach for the monomer and dimer forms of these two conformers, a reliable assignment of the fundamental bands observed in the experimental room-temperature IR and Raman spectra of the molecule was given, and the sensitivities of its group vibrations to conformation, substitution and dimerization were discussed.}, language = {en} } @article{KammerStarkePietruchaetal.2012, author = {Kammer, Stefan and Starke, Ines and Pietrucha, Andreas and Kelling, Alexandra and Mickler, Wulfhard and Schilde, Uwe and Dosche, Carsten and Kleinpeter, Erich and Holdt, Hans-J{\"u}rgen}, title = {1,12-Diazaperylene and 2,11-dialkylated-1,12-diazaperylene iridium(III) complexes [Ir((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)((NN)-N-boolean AND)]PF6: new supramolecular assemblies}, series = {Dalton transactions : a journal of inorganic chemistry, including bioinorganic, organometallic, and solid-state chemistry}, volume = {41}, journal = {Dalton transactions : a journal of inorganic chemistry, including bioinorganic, organometallic, and solid-state chemistry}, number = {34}, publisher = {Royal Society of Chemistry}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1477-9226}, doi = {10.1039/c2dt30412k}, pages = {10219 -- 10227}, year = {2012}, abstract = {A series of new monocationic iridium(III) complexes [Ir((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)((NN)-N-boolean AND)]PF6 with "large-surface" alpha,alpha'-diimin ligands (NN)-N-boolean AND (dap = 1,12-diazaperylene, dmedap = 2,11-dimethyl-1,12-diazaperylene, dipdap = 2,11-diisopropyl-1,12-diazaperylene) and different cyclometalating ligands (CN)-N-boolean AND (piq = 1-phenylisoquinoline, bzq = benzo[h]quinoline, ppz = 1-phenylpyrazole, thpy = 2-(2-thienyl)pyridine, ppy = 2-phenylpyridine, meppy = 2-(4-methylphenyl)pyridine, dfppy = 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine) were synthesized. The solid structures of the complexes [Ir(piq)(2)(dap)]PF6, [Ir(bzq)(2)(dap)]PF6, [Ir(ppy)(2)(dipdap)]PF6, [Ir(piq)(2)(dmedap)]PF6, [Ir(ppy)(2)(dap)]PF6 and [Ir(ppz)(2)(dap)]PF6 are reported. In [Ir(piq)(2)(dap)]PF6, the dap ligand and one of the piq ligands of each cationic complex are involved in pi-pi stacking interactions forming supramolecular channels running along the crystallographic c axis. In the crystalline [Ir(bzq)(2)(dap)]PF6 pi-pi stacking interactions between the metal complexes lead to the formation of a 2D layer structure. In addition, CH-pi interactions were found in all compounds, which are what stabilizes the solid structure. In particular, a significant number of them were found in [Ir(piq)(2)(dap)]PF6 and [Ir(bzq)(2)(dap)]PF6. The crystal structures of [Ir(ppy)(2)(dipdap)]PF6 and [Ir(ppy)(2)(dmedap)]PF6 are also presented, being the first examples of bis-cyclometalated iridium(III) complexes with phenanthroline-type alpha,alpha'-diimin ligands bearing bulky alkyl groups in the neighbourhood of the N-donor atoms. These ligands implicate a distorted octahedral coordination geometry that in turn destabilized the Ir-N-N boolean AND N bonds. The new iridium (III) complexes are not luminescent. All compounds show an electrochemically irreversible anodic peak between 1.15 and 1.58 V, which is influenced by the different cyclometalated ligands. All of the new complexes show two reversible successive one-electron "large-surface" ligand-centred reductions around -0.70 V and -1.30 V. Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and collision induced decomposition (CID) measurements were used to investigate the stability of the new complexes. Thereby, the stability agreed well with the order of the Ir-N-N boolean AND N bond lengths.}, language = {en} } @article{KleinpeterCsuetoertoekiSzatmarietal.2012, author = {Kleinpeter, Erich and Cs{\"u}t{\"o}rt{\"o}ki, Ren{\´a}ta and Szatm{\´a}ri, Istv{\´a}n and Koch, Andreas and Fulop, Ferenc}, title = {Syntheses and conformational analyses of new naphth[1,2-e][1,3]oxazino[3,2-c]quinazolin-13-ones}, year = {2012}, abstract = {The syntheses of naphth[1,2-e][1,3]oxazino[3,2-c]quinazolin-13-one derivatives (3a-f) were achieved by the solvent-free heating of benzyloxycarbonyl-protected intermediates (2a-f) with MeONa.
