Journal ArticleDOI

Alison T. Ung,Karl Schafer,Karl B. Lindsay,Stephen G. Pyne,Kitti Amornraksa,Ria Wouters,Ilse Van Der Linden,Ilse Biesmans,Anne Simone Josephine Lesage,Brian W. Skelton,Allan H. White +10 more
TL;DR: An efficient method for preparing conformationally restricted cyclopentenyl-glutamate analogues in a regioselective and diastereoselectives manner has been developed using a formal [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of dehydroamino acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactions between ruthenium cluster carbonyls and 1,4-diphenylbuta-1,3-diyne
TL;DR: In this article, the molecular structures of complexes 1, 2, 3 and 5 have been determined from single-crystal X-ray studies, and all complexes have precedents in similar products obtained from reactions involving mono-ynes; in the present cases, each alkyne fragment retains a phenylethynyl group as a non-coordinated substituent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organometallic complexes for nonlinear optics VI: syntheses of rigid-rod ruthenium σ-acetylide complexes bearing strong acceptor ligands; X-ray crystal structures of trans-[Ru(C CC6H4NO2-4)2(dppm)2] and trans-[Ru(CCC6H4C6H4NO2-4,4′)2(dpppm)2]
Andrew M. McDonagh,Ian R. Whittall,Mark G. Humphrey,David C. R. Hockless,Brian W. Skelton,Allan H. White +5 more
TL;DR: A series of systematically-varied octahedral ruthenium acetylide complexes, bearing the strong acceptor substituent -NO 2, of general formula rans has been synthesized as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models for Arginine-Metal Binding. Synthesis of Guanidine and Urea Ligands through Amination and Hydration of a Cyanamide Ligand Bound to Platinum(II), Osmium(III), and Cobalt(III).
David P. Fairlie,William G. Jackson,Brian W. Skelton,[No Value] Huo Wen,Allan H. White,W. A. Wickramasinghe,Tai Chin Woon,Henry Taube +7 more
TL;DR: Amination with liquid ammonia gave a rare coordinated guanidine (N,N-dimethylguanidine) ligand, which NMR spectra and X-ray crystal structures show to be charge neutral rather than anionic, indicating high affinity of Guanidine ligands for metal ions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mixed Transition Metal/Lanthanide Complexes: Structural Characterization of Solids Containing Cage Amine Chromium(III) Cations and Tris(dipicolinato)lanthanide Anions
TL;DR: In this article, a series of complexes of stoichiometry [Cr((NH2)2sar)]- [Ln ( dipic )3] has been synthesized and structurally characterized by room-temperature single-crystal X-ray studies.
