2,6-Bis[1-(2-isopropylÂphenylÂimino)Âethyl]Âpyridine
The title compound, C27H31N3, has E substitution at each imine double bond where the two N atoms adopt a transâtrans relationship. The benzene rings are twisted out of the mean plane of the pyridine ring; the mean planes of the aromatic groups are rotated by 63.0â
(1) and 72.58â
(8)°. The crystal structure is sustained mainly by CâHâŻÏ and hydroÂphobic methylâmethyl interÂactions
(Z)-4-(2,5-Di-tert-butylÂanilino)pent-3-en-2-one
In the crystal structure of the title ketoamine, C19H29NO, the bond lengths from the N atom through the alkene group to the ketone O atom show the presence of an extensively delocalized Ï-system. The dihedral angle between the plane of the phenyl ring and that of the alkene component is 63.45â
(7)° due to steric hindrance exerted by the tert-butyl groups. The molÂecule has a Z-configured alkene function, which is facilitated by an intraÂmolecular NâHâŻO hydrogen bond between the amine and ketone groups. The molÂecules are linked into extended chains, which run parallel to the [010] direction, by a very weak CâHâŻO interÂaction between the methyl substituent of the alkene group and the ketone O atom of a neighbouring molÂecule
(E)-3-(1-NaphthylÂamino)ÂmethylÂene-(+)-camphor
In the crystal structure of the title ketoamine {systematic name: (E)-1,7,7-trimethyl-3-[(1-naphthylÂamino)ÂmethylÂidene]bicycloÂ[2.2.1]heptan-2-one}, C21H23NO, there are two independent molÂecules in the asymmetric unit. Both molÂecules have an E configuration about the alkene function. The main conformational difference between the molÂecules is in the orientation of the plane of the naphthyl rings with respect to the camphor fragment. The torsion angle about the enamine CâN bond is 21.3â
(7)° for molÂecule A, but â24.4â
(8)° for molÂecule B. InterÂmolecular NâHâŻO hydrogen bonds between the amino and ketone groups of adjacent independent molÂecules sustain the crystal, and the resulting extended chains, containing an alternating sequence of the two independent molÂecules, run parallel to the [001] direction and can be described by a graph-set motif of C

(4R)-3-Hydroxy-7-isopropyl-4-methyl-5,6-dihydrobenzofuran-2(4H)-one
In the title compound, alternatively called α-hydroxy-Îł-alkylidenebutenolide, C12H16O3, two independent molecules (A and B) crystallize in the asymmetric unit in each of which the 5,6-dihydrobenzo ring has an envelope conformation. The torsion angle along the butadiene chain in the Îł-alkylidenebutenolide core is â177.9â
(2)° for molecule A and 179.9â
(2)° for molecule B. In the crystal, OâH...O hydrogen bonds between hydroxyl and carbonyl groups of adjacent independent molecules form dimers with R22(10) loops
C2 and C1-Symmetric Camphopyrazole Dioxomolybdenum(VI) Complexes catalyze the Epoxidation of Cyclic Olefins
Dioxomolybdenum(VI) complexes (1â6) were prepared in good yields (â„79â%) using enantiopure C and Câsymmetric bidentate N,Nâligands (LâL) derived from (+)âcamphor. The ligands and complexes were characterized by NMR spectroscopy, IR, and elemental analysis. Single crystal Xâray diffraction analyses of complexes 3, 4 and 6 confirmed the bidentate coordination modes of ligands L, L, and L and revealed distorted octahedral coordination geometries around the metal center. Complexes 3 and 6 form conformational isomers depending on the orientation of the substituents of the ligand aryl groups. Preliminary evaluation of the complexes as catalysts for the epoxidation of cyclohexene (81â93â% conversion) and cisâcyclooctene (66â94â% conversion) with cumyl hydroperoxide and 35â% w/w aqueous hydrogen peroxide (39â73â%) demonstrated their activity for oxygen atom transfer reactions, opening the way for asymmetric epoxidations
Camphopyrazole-based N,N- and N,P-ligands and chiral complexes of Ni, Pd, and Rh: PâN bond activation upon Rh(I) complexation
Enantiomerically pure C1 and C2-symmetric bidentate N,N- and N,P-ligands are accessible from (+)-camphor in good yields (60â90%). Modified syntheses of precursors 1 and 2 are disclosed as well as the crystal structures of three hydroxy-pyrazoline intermediates. Ligands 3, 4, 6, and 11 were fully characterized including an X-ray crystal structure of C2-symmetric 6, which showed an E-configuration in the solid state. These ligands form complexes with Ni(II), Pd(II), and Rh(I) in good yields (84â96%); the X-ray crystal structures of complexes 12, 14, and 16 confirmed the bidentate coordination modes of ligands 4, 6, and 11 and distorted tetrahedral [for Ni(II)] and square planar [for Rh(I)] coordination geometries. Furthermore, the structure of the Rh(I) complex 16 revealed the presence of a Ph2PCl ligand, which, along with spectroscopic data, is proof of an almost quantitative PâN bond cleavage upon coordination of ligand 11 to [RhCl(COD)]2
