Cobalt(II) and nickel(II) thiolates, M(SR)2, can be prepared in high yield by the electrochemical oxidation of a metal anode in an acetonitrile or acetone solution of RSH (R = C6H5, o-CH3C6H4, 2-C10H7, 2,3,4,5-C6F4H; not all combinations). When 2,2-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline (=L) is added to the electrolyte phase, the products are the adducts M(SR)2L2. In the case of Co(SC6H5)2(phen)2, aerial oxidation leads to the formation of the cobalt(III) cation [Co(SC6H5)2(phen)2]+, isolated as the perchlorate salt. X-ray crystallographic analysis showed that this cation has a cis-CoS2(N2)2 kernel.

The electrochemical oxidation of a sacrificial metal anode (M = Zn, Cd, Cu) in an acetonitrile solution of 2-hydroxy-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone, lapachol, C15H14O3 (=HL) gives ML2. The results are in keeping with earlier work on direct electrochemical synthesis in related systems. Adducts with 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethanediamine (tmen) have also been prepared. The structure of the 2,2′-bipyridine adduct of Cu(lapacholate)2 has been established by X-ray crystallography. The parameters are triclinic, space group [Formula: see text], a = 12.748(59) Å, b = 13.859(49) Å, c = 11.770(59) Å, α = 108.30(4)°, β = 108.08(3)°, γ = 68.94(3)°, Z = 2, R = 0.059 for 2256 unique reflections. The copper atom is in a distorted CuN2O2O2′ environment. The mechanism of the formation of this Cu(lapacholate)2 is discussed. Keywords: electrochemical synthesis, lapachol, X-ray crystallography, copper(II) complex.

The electrochemical oxidation of anodic copper or silver (= M) into non-aqueous solutions of RSH (R = alkyl, axyl) gives MISR as insoluble materials in high yield. In the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline (= L), the products are MISR•phen for M = Cu, but not Ag. Gold resists oxidation under such conditions, and AuISR (R = n-C4H9, C6H5) was obtained in only poor yield. The crystal structure of the solvated dimeric adduct [Cu(SC6H4CH3-o)•phen]2•CH3CN is triclinic, with a = 10.682(3) Å, b = 11.729(4) Å, c = 15.608(5) Å, α = 76.87(2)°, β = 76.35(2)°, γ = 68.07(2)°, V = 1742(1) Å3, Z = 2 and space group [Formula: see text]. The structure is based on a folded Cu2S2 ring with an unusually short Cu—Cu distance of 2.613(3) Å Each copper atom has CuS2N2 pseudo-tetrahedral stereochemistry, with Cu—S = 2.337 Å(av) and Cu—N = 2.10 Å(av).

The electrochemical oxidation of Cd in acetonitrile solution of 1-hydroxy-2-pyridinethione (HPT) and 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) affords [Cd(PT)2(bipy)] · H2O and [Cd(PT)(bipy)2]ClO4· 1/4(bipy). The crystal structure of the perchlorate salt shows the molecule to have a distorted octahedral CdN4OS skeleton.

The heterocyclic derivatives, 8,9-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1-phenyl-3,4,5,6- tetrahydro-1H-2,3-benzoxazocine(3a) and 9,10-dimethoxy-3-methyl-1- phenyl-1,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-2,3-benzoxazonine (3b),examples of two new ring systems, have been prepared by Meisenheimer rearrangement of the corresponding 2-benzazepine and 2-benzazocine N-oxide derivatives (2a) and (2b). The Bischler-Napieralski-type cyclization reaction was used in the preparation of the tertiary amine precursors of these N-oxides reaction conditions for the cyclization were critical and phosphorus oxychloride in refluxing butanenitrile was found to give the best yields of the seven- or eight-membered cyclic imine intermediates. Reductive cleavage of the benzoxazocine derivative (3a) with zinc in acetic acid followed by N-methylation gave the expected product, [2-{3- (dimethylamino)propyl}-4,5-di-methoxyphenyl]phenylmethanol (12). The crystal and molecular structure of (3a) has been determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

The title compound was isolated from the treatment of Tp*Sn(Cl)2Bu (1) with a large excess of sodium hydroxide in a mixture of acetone-water at room temperature. [(Me2CO)3(NaTp*)2] (2) crystallizes at 4 °C as prismatic colorless crystals, in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 4, a = 12.2837(6), b = 24.3197(12), c = 16.9547(8) Å, β = 110.017(1)°, and V = 4759.0(4) Å3. The X-ray crystallographic analysis revealed a dinuclear unit in which two Tp*Na moieties are held together by three bridging acetone molecules acting as oxygen-based donors.

The title compound formed the major component in a rearrangement of an analogue of 4-amino-4-deoxychorismic acid (1), an intermediate in the chorismate-p-aminobenzoic acid biotransformation. X-Ray crystallographic analysis has defined the relative stereochemistry at the four chiral centres in the tricyclic molecule.

AbstractA simple and high-yield preparation of the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl vanadium(IV) trihalides Cp*VX3 (X = CL, Br, I) from Cp*V(CO)4 as well as their conversion into the oxo-vanadium(V) compounds Cp*VOX2 (X = CL, Br) and [Cp*VOX]2(μ-O) (X = CL, Br, I) are described. The equilibrium between the two fluoride species Cp*VOF2 and [Cp*VOF]2(μ-O) has also been investigated. The complexes are characterized by their NMR (51V, l3C, 1H), IR, and mass spectra. The crystal structure of the binuclear chloro-oxo complex [Cp*VOCl]2(μ-O) has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The molecules contain two [Cp*VOCl] units combined via a bent oxo bridge (V-O-V angle of 142.2(2)°). The vanadium-oxygen bond lengths are 157.6(8) and 179.4(1) pm for the terminal and the bridging oxo ligands, respectively, corresponding to double and single bonds.

Wastewater minimization in phenylacetaldehyde production by using indirect electrochemical oxidation of phenylethane instead of the seriously polluting traditional chemical process is described in this paper. Results show that high current efficiency of Mn(III) and high yield of phenylacetaldehyde can be obtained at the same sulfuric acid concentration (60%). The electrolytic mediator can be recycled and there will be no waste discharged.

Reaction of allyltribromogermane (2), readily available from dibromo(1,4-dioxane)germanium(II) (1) and allylbromide, with tris(2-tributylstannoxyethyl)-amine (4) gives 1-allylgermatrane (3) in almost quantitative yield. 3 crystallizes from n-pentane as a colourless crystalline solid which was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and by an X-ray crystal structure study. The “atrane” skeleton shows a strong conformational disorder; the Ge-N distance of 2.208(3) Å suggests the presence of a coordinative Ge-N bond. Treatment of 1-allylgermatrane (3) with CH2N2 in the presence of catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 affords 1-cyclopropylmethylgermatrane (5) in high yield
