Efficient syntheses of the cis and trans isomers of [OsCl2(Me2SO)4] are reported. While a structural study of thetrans isomer confirms the spectroscopically assigned all-S-bound Me2SO configuration, a crystallographic determination of the cis isomer reveals a previously unheralded all-S-bound Me2SO geometry, in contrast to the spectroscopically inferred configuration predominant in solution which has one O-bound ligand. Fortrans-[OsCl2(Me2SO)4], crystals are tetragonal, space group I 4/m, with a 9·092(2), c 11·212(3) Å, Z 2, 566 unique reflections (34 parameters), converging at R 0·026 and Rw 0·032. For cis-[OsCl2(Me2SO)4], crystals are triclinic, space group P-1, with a 8·193(2), b 8·941(3), c 13·837(3) Å, α 79·77(2), β 79·91(2), γ 65·03(2)°, Z 2, 4152 unique reflections (173 parameters), converging at R 0·021 and Rw 0·018.

Reaction of the chloromethylchlorophosphines R(Cl)P-CH2-Cl (R = Cl, tBu, C6H11, NEt2, NPh2) (L) with C7H8Mo(CO)4 or (CO)5W(Py), (CO)6W and (CO5W(THF) yields the complexes cis-Mo(CO)4L2(2a - 2e) or (CO)5 WL (3a - 3c), respectively, in high yields. The palladium(II) complexes PdCl2L2 (4a - 4c) are obtained on treatment of 1a, 1b and 1e with 1,5-cyclooctadiene palladium(II) chloride or anhydrous palladium(II) chloride in a homogeneous or heterogeneous reaction, respectively. 4a - 4c are formed as a mixture of cis- and trans-isomers. The 13C {1H} NMR and 1H NMR spectra of 2a - 4c have been analysed, the trans-structure of 4c could be assigned to the predominant isomer. The X-ray structural analysis of 4c (triclinic, space group Pl̅) reveals a trans-square planar coordination at palladium with an antiperiplanar arrangement of the bulky tBu substituents at the phosphorus atoms. Electronic (ƩXiMo) and steric ligand parameters (θ) are given for the chloromethylchlorophosphines R(Cl)P-CH2-Cl (R = Cl, tBu, C6H11, NEt2, NPh2).

Dibromo- and diiodo[(2-pyridyl)phosphine]palladium(II) complexes are prepared by metathesis of cis-PdCl2(PPh3−npyn)2 species (n = 1–3) using the appropriate sodium halide; py = 2-pyridyl. NMR spectroscopy, particularly,13C{1H}, is used to distinguish cis and trans isomers. The dinuclear complexes Pd2X2(μ-PPh3−npyn)2, X = halide, are synthesized via a conproportionation reaction using PdX2(PPh3−npyn)2 and Pd2(dba)3; dba = dibenzylideneacetone. Both Pd2l2(μ-PPh2py)2 and a dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate A-frame complex Pd2Cl2(μ-Ppy3)2(μ-MeO2C•C=C•CO2Me) are characterized crystallographically as head-to-tail isomers. The former crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with a = 30.992(3), b = 18.764(1), c = 13.100(1) Å, β = 100.676(5)°, and Z = 8; the data were refined to R = 0.035 for 5874 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The A-frame compound is triclinic of space group [Formula: see text] with a = 13.545(2), b = 15.064(2), c = 11.991(2) Å, α = 111.56(1), β = 95.36(1), γ = 97.63(1)°, and Z = 2; R = 0.033 from 7128 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I). The Pd2X2(μ-PPhpy2)2 complexes exist as a mixture of diastereomers because of chirality induced at the phosphorus atoms. The Pd2X2(μ-Ppy3)2 complexes in water generate the [Pd2(H2O)2(μ-Ppy3)2]2+ dication, which is isolated as various salts. The mononuclear complexes in water generate aquo and hydroxo species. Keywords: dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate adducts, palladium complexes (dinuclear), pyridylphosphines.

The reactivities of various N,N'- diacetylated piperazine-2,5-diones towards radical bromination reactions are reported. The studies show that glycyl centres of piperazine-2,5-diones are more reactive towards radical bromination reactions compared to α-substituted amino acid centres. In addition, large differences in reactivities were observed for the cis and trans isomers of N,N'-diacetylated alanine anhydride. Single-crystal structure determination of each isomer revealed that conformational effects may account for the difference in chemical reactivity.

Abstract A method for the determination of diethylstibestrol in feeds, which is based on official first action method 38.048–38.051, is proposed. Interfering feed extractives are removed by using a tripotassium phosphate-Celite column prior to measurement at 415 nm before and after irradiation. Recoveries of equilibrated standards added to Soxhlet extracts of several samples averaged 94.3% compared to 86.3% by the official method. The background absorbance at 415 nm obtained by using the proposed method was approximately 6% of the background by the official method for solutions containing equivalent amounts of sample. A thin layer chromatographic method is also included for the confirmation and identification of the cis and trans isomers of the drug. The proposed method has been found satisfactory for the quantitative determination of 0.55–44 ppm diethylstilbestrol and the thin layer chromatographic procedure can detect as little as 0.07 ppm.

The reaction of (THT)AuCl with (TMEDA)Na[N(TePR2)2] (R = Ph, i-Pr, t-Bu) produces a series of gold (III) complexes of the type [{R2PNP(Te)R2}Au(µ-Te)]2 (4a, R = i-Pr; 4b, R = Ph; 4c, R = t-Bu) rather than the expected homoleptic Au(I) complexes of the ditelluridoimidodiphosphinate ligands. A combination of solution- and solid-state NMR studies shows that both cis and trans isomers of 4a–4c are formed in these reactions. X-ray structural determinations of the trans isomers of 4a–4c reveal a centrosymmetric arrangement with a central four-membered Au2Te2 ring formed by the formal insertion of gold into a P–Te bond; this insertion process was shown to be reversible upon addition of PPh3 to 4a to give the monomeric gold(I) complex Ph3PAu[N{TeP(i-Pr)2}2]. The X-ray structure of cis-4b is also described.Key words: gold, tellurium, redox, X-ray structures, imidodiphosphinate.

The reduction of some polymethyl-2,3-dihydro phenalen-1-ones by lithium aluminum hydride yields a mixture of cis and trans isomers; the percentage of each isomer depends to a considerable extent on its structure. Indeed, for some, the trans isomer predominates while for others the cis isomer is obtained in up to 88% yields. Moreover, in the particular case in which the trans isomer is formed in low yields, its preferred conformation is trans diaxial.The steric constraints which render certain transition states unfavourable during the attack of the hydride are discussed with the aid of spectroscopic data on the alcohols obtained.
