The reaction of (F3C)Cl2SiCl3 with the lithiated hydrazine LiN(Me)NMe2 gives the compound (F3C)Cl2SiN(Me)NMe2 (1) and in traces Cl3SiN(Me)NMe2 (2). The reactions with LiN(SiMe3)NMe2 and LiONMe2 give (F3C)Cl2SiN(SiMe3)NMe2 (4) and (F3C)Cl2SiONMe2 (5), respectively. The compounds were characterised by multinuclear solution NMR, gas-phase IR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Information about conformational preferences of 1 and 4 can be extracted by comparing experimental IR spectra with those calculated by quantum chemical methods (B3LYP/6-311G**). The former show the gas phase of the β -donor-acceptor silanes 1 and 4 to be dominated by the anti conformations, while the calculations show a preference for the gauche conformers. The crystal structure of Cl3SiN(Me)NMe2 (2) has been determined. The solid-state structures of the Ruppert reagent F3C-SiMe3 (1) and its chlorine analogue F3C-SiCl3 (2) have also been determined by X-ray diffraction of single crystals grown by in situ techniques.

The conformational preferences of peptide models have been investigated to understand the protein folding mechanism and to develop the force field. Here, we report the minimum energy conformations for a model peptide, N-acetyl–glycine–glycine–N′-methylamide ( Ac–1Gly–2Gly–NHMe(I) ) at the HF/3-21G, HF/6-31G*, and the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. At the B3LYP/6-31G* level, the 31 minima were identified and the 10 β-turn structures among the minima were observed in gas-phase. The conformational preferences of Gly residue in the model peptide, I depend on its relative position and conformation of neighboring Gly residue. The Gly residue in this model dipeptide has an asymmetric energy profile as one of Gly residue adopts a specific conformation. This study sheds some lights on understanding the unique conformational preferences of Gly residue in protein including two consecutive Gly residues.
