Starting from (MeO)3SiCH2Cl (10) and Ph2(H)SiCH2OH (16), respectively, the (hydroxymethyl)diphenyl(piperidinoalkyl)silanes (HOCH2)Ph2Si(CH2)2NC5H10 (6) and (HOCH2)Ph2Si(CH2)3NC5H10 (8) have been synthesized [10→Ph2(MeO)SiCH2Cl (11)→Ph2(CH2=CH)SiCH2Cl (12)→Ph2(CH2=CH)SiCH2OAc (13)→Ph2(CH2=CH)SiCH2OH (14)→Ph2(CH2=CH)SiCH2OSiMe3 (15)→6; 16→Ph2(H)SiCH2OSiMe3 (17)→8; NC5H10 = piperidino]. N-Quaternization of 6 and 8 with MeI gave the corresponding methiodides 7 and 9, respectively. As shown by IR-spectroscopic studies, compounds 6 and 8 form intramolecular O-H···N hydrogen bonds in solution (CCl4). In the crystal, 6 (space group Pna21; two crystallographically independent molecules) also forms intramolecular O-H···N hydrogen bonds whereas 8 (space group P1̅) forms intermolecular O-H···N hydrogen bonds leading to the formation of centrosymmetric dimers (single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies). The (hydroxymethyl) silanes 6-9 and the related silanols (HO)Ph2Si(CH2)2NC5H 10 (sila-pridinol; 1), sila-pridinol methiodide (2), (HO)Ph2Si(CH2)3NC5H10 (sila-difenidol; 3) and sila-difenidol methiodide (4) were investigated for their antimuscarinic properties. In functional pharmacological experiments as well as in radioligand competition studies, all compounds behaved as simple competitive antagonists at muscarinic M1-, M2-, M3- and M4-receptors. In general, the silanols 1-4 displayed higher receptor affinities (up to 100-fold) than the corresponding (hydroxymethyl) silanes 6-9 . In the (hydroxymethyl)silane series, compound 7 was found to be the most potent muscarinic antagonist [pA2/pKi= 8,71/8,6 (M1), 8,23/7,8 (M2), 8,19/7,8 (M3); pKi = 8,2 (M4)]. In the silanol series, the related compound 2 showed the most interesting antimuscarinic properties [pA2/pKi = 10,37/9,6 (M1), 8,97/8,8 (M2), 9,08/8,8 (M3); pKi = 9,4 (M4)].
Tetraphenyl-p-benzoquinone, according to its single crystal structure, shows some steric congestion: its quinone ring is distorted by 7° to a chair conformation, and its phenyl substituents are twisted around their CC axes between 46° and 72°. The half-wave reduction potentials of -0.57 and -1.25 V in acetonitrile confirm negligible π interaction of the phenyl substituents. Addition of alkalimetal tetraphenylborate salts lowers the second reduction potential due to contact ion formation, which can be confirmed by UV/VIS spectra recorded under aprotic conditions. Extensive ESR/ENDOR investigations prove the formation of the following species in THF solution: Tetraphenyl-p-benzosemiquinone radical anion contact ion pairs [M·⊖ Me⊕solv]' (Me⊕: Li⊕, Na⊕, Rb⊕, Cs⊕) and contact triple ion radical cations both with identical cations [M·⊖ (Me⊕solv)2]·⊕ (Me⊕: Li⊕, Na⊕, Cs⊕) and different cations [M·⊖ (Li⊕solv)(Me⊕solv)]·⊕ (Me⊕: Na⊕, Cs⊕). Addition of crown ethers can lead to external solvation of the Me⊕ counter cations, whereas cryptands form internal solvation complexes. The radical anion of 2,6-diphenyl-p-benzosemiquinone adds cations at its phenyl-free molecular half. The radical anion salt [tetraphenyl-p-benzosemiquinone·⊖ (Na⊕(tetrahydropyrane) 2)] could be crystallized and its structure determined at 200 K. In agreement with the Hirota sign rules for contact radicals in solution, the Na⊕ ion is found 62 pm above the π plane and 29° outside the axis of the CO bound, which is elongated due to one-electron reduction by 5 pm to 127 pm.
1,4-Bis(trimethylsiloxy)benzene has been crystallized both by vacuum sublimation and from «-heptane solution, which each yielded colourless plates with identical monoclinic unit cell dimensions (P2/n, Z = 4). The conformation of C[ symmetry shows the two (H3C)3SiO-substituents to be conrotationally twisted around the O-( C6H4)-O axis by dihedral angles o f ± 60°. According to the photoelectron spectroscopic ionisation pattern and its Koopmans’ assignment, IEVn = -εJAM 1, by AM 1 eigenvalues, the gas phase structure should also be of C, symmetry. The results of geometry-optimized MNDO , AM 1 or PM 3 calculations for the monosubstituted derivative H5C6-OS i(CH3)3 are compared with respect to the quality of their fit to the measured data.
Crystals of lemon yellow dipotassium nitranilate and of yellow disodium nitranilate dihydrate have been grown and their structures determined at 290 and 200 K. The six-member- ed, O2N-disubstituted rings show a pronounced cyanine distortion with all four CO bonds identical and the two (OCC(NO2)CO)⊖ chains connected by single CC bonds of each 156 pm length. In the anhydrous K⊕ salt, the ring is planar, but in the Na⊕ hydrate salt it exhibits a twist conformation. Quantum chemical calculations allow to reproduce the structure in every detail, demonstrate strong charge alternation along the cyanine chains with considerable delocalization into the O2N acceptor substituents, and suggest that the rather long connecting CC bonds contain positively charged carbon centers on both ends. In addition, metal ion coordination effects as well as the rather high pKa value of nitranilic acid are rationalized.
Bis(N,N-diethyl-N′-benzoylselenoureato)lead(II) has been prepared and characterized by single-crystal structure analysis. Pb(C12H15N2OSe)2 crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Iba2. The cell parameters are a = 13.206(3), b = 20.542(4), c = 10.089(2) A and Z = 4. R = 0.025. The direction of the polar axis was determined unambig uously. Pb(II) is bidentally coordinated to two N,N-diethyl-N′-benzoylselenourea molecules. The coordination polyhedron is a distorted pseudo-trigonal bi-pyramid with one equatorial position occupied by an electron lone-pair. The Pb-Se and Pb-O bond lengths are 2.876(1) and 2.444(4) Å, respectively. In the crystal lattice, each Pb atom also shows interactions with two Se atoms of a neighboring molecule. The Pb-Se distance of that interaction is 3.643 Å.
The one-electron transfer to large π-delocalized hydrocarbons provides an interesting possibility to crystallize solvent-separated ion-pair salts containing optimally solvated cations. Accordingly, the reduction of 9.9′-bianthryl in aprotic 1.2-dimethoxyethane (DME) solution at a sodium metal mirror allows to grow dark blue, brick-like crystals of its radical anion and threefold DME-solvated sodium cation. The structure of the radical anion is very similar to that recently published for the neutral molecule. According to AM 1 enthalpy hypersurface calculations based on the structural data, the torsion angle between 60° and 120° is determined by the lattice packing and the negative charge is -π-delocalized predominantly within only one anthracene subunit. The counter cation [Na⊕(DME)3], reported only three times so far, shows a sixfold propeller-like coordination of approximate D3 skeletal symmetry with contact distances Na⊕···O between 232 and 243 pm and angles ≮ONa⊕O varying between 69° and 159°. Due to the small repulsion between the chelating DME molecules, the isodesmically calculated Na⊕ solvation enthalpy is more negative than that of the analogous tetrahydrofuran complex [Na⊕(THF)6] - as confirmed by the laboratory experience that salts of less stable anions are preferentially crystallized from a strongly cation solvating DME solution.
The sodium salt of the most simple polynitro-substituted hydrocarbon anion. Na⊕⊖C(NO2)3, (for a hazard warning cf. [***]) crystallizes from ether solutions without and with addition of 18-crown-6 either in a polymer band. [(Na⊕⊖C(NO2)3)dioxane]∞, or as a solvent- separated ion pair, [(Na⊕/18-crown-6)(THF2]⊕[(Na⊕/18-crown-6)(O2N-C⊖(NO2)2)2]⊖. The Na⊕ cations are each 8-fold coordinated in hexagonal bipyramidal arrangement. According to extensive quantum-chemical calculations based on the structure coordinates, the formation of these novel salts can be traced back to the charge distribution in the anions ⊖C(NO2)3. which due to negatively charged oxygen centers are favorable complex ligands. The structure determining effects of solvation are discussed.
The isobaric melting and boiling diagrams for the systems: dimethyldichlorosilane/pyridine and 2,2-dichloropropane/pyridine are reproduced. The existence of the incongruently melting addition compounds (CH3)2SiCl2 · (Pyridine)2 and [(CH3)2CCl2]3 · Pyridine could be proved. Some measurements of the molar volume of mixtures of pyridine and dimethyldichlorosilane, and pyridine and 2,2-dichloropropane are reported. For both systems the molar excess volume has been calculated as a function of the mole fractions.
