Reaction of bis(cycloocta-1,5-diene)platinum(0) with the (alkynyl)phenylsilanes Ph3SiC2But, Ph2Si(C2But)2 and PhSi(C2But)3 gives, respectively, [Pt (Ph3SiC2But)2] (1b), [Pt {Ph2Si(C2But)}]2 (2b), and [Pt {PhSi(C2But)3}]2 (4b), which contain zerovalent platinum atoms coordinated by two alkyne units. Spectroscopic data indicate that (2b) and (4b) contain two PtC4 and two SiC4 tetrahedra joined at the corners. X-Ray crystallography shows that complex (4b) is isostructural and isomorphous with the known nickel analogue, two of the alkyne units being uncoordinated; the central eight-membered ring comprising two silicon, four alkyne carbon and two platinum atoms has an approximate chair conformation. In contrast, the monomer (1b) is isostructural but not isomorphous with the analogous nickel compound (1a); in the crystal there is evidence for a weak intramolecular phenyl-phenyl interaction.

The crystal structure and absolute configuration of koetjapic acid were unambiguously reassigned by X-ray crystallography with strong support from NMR spectroscopic data. The acid contained 9 quaternary carbon atoms existing as an orthorhombic crystal with a space group of P21 21 21 and unit cell parameters of a = 7.6641(2), b = 14.6844(4) and c = 23.9316(6). Ring A adopted a chair conformation, ring B has an envelope conformation, whilst ring C assumed a half-chair and D displayed a chair conformation. The absolute configurations at C1 ( R), C5 ( R), C7 ( S), C10 ( S), C13 ( R), C14 ( R), C17 ( S) and C18 ( S) were assigned for the first time. The X-ray crystal of koetjapic acid was therefore reassigned as 3,4-seco-olean-4(23),12-diene-3,30-dioic acid. A plausible biogenetic synthetic pathway for compound 1 is also proposed.

Three new phenylhydrazones, penoxahydrazones A–C (compounds 1–3), and two new quinazolines, penoxazolones A (compound 4) and B (compound 5), with unique linkages were isolated from the fungus Penicillium oxalicum obtained from the deep sea cold seep. Their structures and relative configurations were assigned by analysis of 1D/2D NMR and mass spectroscopic data, and the absolute configurations of 1, 4, and 5 were established on the basis of X-ray crystallography or ECD calculations. Compound 1 represents the first natural phenylhydrazone-bearing steroid, while compounds 2 and 3 are rarely occurring phenylhydrazone tautomers. Compounds 4 and 5 are enantiomers that feature quinazoline and cinnamic acid units. Some isolates exhibited inhibition of several marine phytoplankton species and marine-derived bacteria.

An alkaloid of Crotalaria leschenaultii DC., previously reported as crispatine and now named crotaleschenine, has been re-investigated and shown to be (7β,8α-H,12α,13α,14α)-12β-hydroxy-1,2-didehydrocrotalane-11,15-dione.1 Spectroscopic data are presented and the stereochemistry determined by X-ray crystallography. The esterifying acid of crotaleschenine is identical with that of retusine , which is thereby determined as (1a,7β,8α-H,12α,13α,14α)-12β- hydroxycrotalane-11,15-dione.

Under basic conditions 4,5,12,13-tetraacetyl[2.2]paracyclophane (9) cyclizes by a double aldol condensation to provide the two aldols 12 and 15 in a 3:7 ratio. The structures of these compounds were obtained from X-ray structural analysis, spectroscopic data, and mechanistic considerations. On acid treatment 12 is dehydrated to a mixture of the condensed five-membered [2.2]paracyclophane derivatives 18–20, whereas 15 yields a mixture of the isomeric cyclopentadienones 21–23. The structures of these elimination products are also deduced from X-ray and spectroscopic data. The sequence presented here constitutes the simplest route so far to cyclophanes carrying an annelated five-membered ring.

AbstractThe reaction of R3M (M=Ga, In) with HESiR′3 (E=O, S; R′3=Ph3, iPr3, Et3, tBuMe2) leads to the formation of (Me2GaOSiPh3)2(1); (Me2GaOSitBuMe2)2(2); (Me2GaOSiEt3)2(3); (Me2InOSiPh3)2(4); (Me2InOSitBuMe2)2(5); (Me2InOSiEt3)2(6); (Me2GaSSiPh3)2(7); (Et2GaSSiPh3)2(8); (Me2GaSSiiPr3)2(9); (Et2GaSSiiPr3)2(10); (Me2InSSiPh3)3(11); (Me2InSSiiPr3)n(12), in high yields at room temperature. The compounds have been characterized by multinuclear NMR and in most cases by X-ray crystallography. The molecular structures of (1), (4), (7) and (8) have been determined. Compounds (3), (6) and (10) are liquids at room temperature. In the solid state, (1), (4), (7) and (9) are dimers with central core of the dimer being composed of a M2E2 four-membered ring. VT-NMR studies of (7) show facile redistribution between four- and six-membered rings in solution. The thermal decomposition of (1)–(12) was examined by TGA and range from 200 to 350°C. Bulk pyrolysis of (1) and (2) led to the formation of Ga2O3; (4) and (5) In metal; (7)–(10) GaS and (11)–(12) InS powders, respectively.

Inula oculus-christi L. (Compositae) extract was chromatographed and three sesquiterpene lactones ergolide, gaillardin and pulchellin C were isolated. The structures of these compounds were determined by analysis of their spectroscopic data, and their crystal structures were defined using X-ray crystallography; the isolation of ergolide and pulchellin C is reported for the first time from this species. These three compounds were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity against MDBK, MCF7 and WEHI164 cells; ergolide and gaillardin exhibited lower and significantly different IC50 values compared with pulchellin C ( p<0.001).

The thermolysis of arachno-1 [(Cp*Ru)2(B3H8)(CS2H)] in the presence of tellurium powder yielded a series of ruthenium trithia-borinane complexes: [(Cp*Ru)2(η1-S)(η1-CS){(CH2)2S3BH}] 2, [(Cp*Ru)2(η1-S)(η1-CS){(CH2)2S3B(SMe)}] 3, and [(Cp*Ru)2(η1-S)(η1-CS){(CH2)2S3BH}] 4. Compounds 2–4 were considered as ruthenium trithia-borinane complexes, where the central six-membered ring {C2BS3} adopted a boat conformation. Compounds 2–4 were similar to our recently reported ruthenium diborinane complex [(Cp*Ru){(η2-SCHS)CH2S2(BH2)2}]. Unlike diborinane, where the central six-membered ring {CB2S3} adopted a chair conformation, compounds 2–4 adopted a boat conformation. In an attempt to convert arachno-1 into a closo or nido cluster, we pyrolyzed it in toluene. Interestingly, the reaction led to the isolation of a capped butterfly cluster, [(Cp*Ru)2(B3H5)(CS2H2)] 5. All the compounds were characterized by 1H, 11B{1H}, and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The molecular structures of complexes 2, 3, and 5 were also determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

The hexacarbonyl compounds of chromium, molybdenum and tungsten react with the highly nucleophilic agent Li NiPr2 and in a subsequent alkylation with (Et3O)BF4 to give the carbene complexes (CO)5M[C(N′Pr2)OEt] (1, 3, 4). In case of W(CO)6 and Mo(CO)6 the novel biscarbene complexes cis(CO)4M[C(NiPr2)OEt]2 (2, 5) are additionally obtained. Reaction conditions, properties and spectroscopic data of the new compounds are reported. The molecular structure of cis(CO)4W[C(NiPr2)OEt]2 (4) was determined by X-ray crystallography

The outer-membrane decahaem cytochrome MtrC is part of the transmembrane MtrCAB complex required for mineral respiration by Shewanella oneidensis. MtrC has significant sequence similarity to the paralogous decahaem cytochrome MtrF, which has been structurally solved through X-ray crystallography. This now allows for homology-based models of MtrC to be generated. The structure of these MtrC homology models contain ten bis-histidine-co-ordinated c-type haems arranged in a staggered cross through a four-domain structure. This model is consistent with current spectroscopic data and shows that the areas around haem 5 and haem 10, at the termini of an octahaem chain, are likely to have functions similar to those of the corresponding haems in MtrF. The electrostatic surfaces around haem 7, close to the β-barrels, are different in MtrF and MtrC, indicating that these haems may have different potentials and interact with substrates differently.
