RESUMEN
A series of stable iron(II) bis(dicarbollide) derivatives [8,8'-(RNHC(Et)îHN)2-3,3'-Fe(1,2-C2B9H10)2] (R = Pr, R = Ph, (CH2)2OH, (CH2)3OH, (CH2)2NMe2) was prepared starting from FeCl2 or [FeCl2(dppe)] and the corresponding nido-carboranyl amidines [10-RNHC(Et)îHN-7,8-C2B9H11]. In a similar way, the reactions of the oxonium derivatives of nido-carborane with FeCl2 in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of t-BuOK lead to the corresponding stable oxonium derivatives iron(II) bis(dicarbollide) [8,8'-(RR'O)2-3,3'-Fe(1,2-C2B9H10)2] (RR' = (CH2)4, (CH2)2O(CH2)2, (CH2)5; R = R' = Et), which can be alternatively prepared by the reaction of the parent iron(II) bis(dicarbollide) with tetrahydrofuran or 1,4-dioxane in the presence of Me2SO4. The cyclic voltammetry studies of the synthesized iron(II) bis(dicarbollide) derivatives revealed that the introduction of amidinium and oxonium substituents leads to a significant increase in the Fe2+/Fe3+ redox potential relative to the parent iron(II) bis(dicarbollide). The redox potentials of the oxonium derivatives are close to the redox potential of ferrocene and somewhat lower than redox potentials of sulfonium and phosphonium derivatives of iron(II) bis(dicarbollide).
RESUMEN
A series of C- and B-substituted nido-carborane derivatives with a pendant pyridyl group was prepared. The synthesized compounds were used as ligands in the complexation reactions with bis(triphenylphosphine)nickel(II) and palladium(II) chlorides to give six new metallacomplexes with unusual η5:κ1(N)-coordination of the metal center. The single crystal structures of 1-(NC5H4-2'-S)-1,2-C2B10H11, 1-(NC5H4-2'-CH2S)-1,2-C2B10H11, Cs [7-(NC5H4-2'-CH2S)-7,8-C2B9H11] closo- and nido-carboranes and 3-Ph3P-3-(4(7)-NC5H4-2'-S)-closo-3,1,2-NiC2B9H10 and 3-Ph3P-3-(4(7)-NC5H4-2'-CH2S)-closo-3,1,2-NiC2B9H10 metallacarboranes were determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction.

A [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction using dialkyne and diazide comonomers, both bearing explosophoric groups, to synthesize energetic polymers containing furazan and 1,2,3-triazole ring as well as nitramine group in the polymer chain have been described. The developed solvent- and catalyst-free approach is methodologically simple and effective, the comonomers used are easily available, and the resulting polymer does not need any purification. All this makes it a promising tool for the synthesis of energetic polymers. The protocol was utilized to generate multigram quantities of the target polymer, which has been comprehensively investigated. The resulting polymer was fully characterized by spectral and physico-chemical methods. Compatibility with energetic plasticizers, thermochemical characteristics, and combustion features indicate the prospects of this polymer as a binder base for energetic materials. The polymer of this study surpasses the benchmark energetic polymer, nitrocellulose (NC), in a number of properties.

The crystal structures of two isomeric triiodo derivatives of ortho-carborane containing substituents in the three most electron-withdrawing positions of the carborane cage, 1,2,3-I3-1,2-C2B10H9, and the three most electron-donating positions, 8,9,12-I3-1,2-C2B10H9, as well as the crystal structure of 8,9,12-Br3-1,2-C2B10H9, were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the structure of 1,2,3-I3-1,2-C2B10H9, an iodine atom attached to the boron atom (position 3) donates its lone pairs simultaneously to the σ-holes of both iodine atoms attached to the carbon atoms (positions 1 and 2) with the Iâ¯I distance of 3.554(2) Å and the C-Iâ¯I and B-Iâ¯I angles of 169.2(2)° and 92.2(2)°, respectively. The structure is additionally stabilized by a few B-Hâ¯I-shortened contacts. In the structure of 8,9,12-I3-1,2-C2B10H9, the Iâ¯I contacts of type II are very weak (the Iâ¯I distance is 4.268(4) Å, the B8-I8â¯I12 and B12-I12â¯I8 angles are 130.2(3)° and 92.2(3)°) and can only be regarded as dihalogen bonds formally. In comparison with the latter, the structure of 8,9,12-Br3-1,2-C2B10H9 demonstrates both similarities and differences. No Brâ¯Br contacts of type II are observed, while there are two Brâ¯Br halogen bonds of type I.

A convenient method to access the above perchlorates has been developed, based on the cyclocondensation of 3-aminofurazans with 1,3-diketones in the presence of HClO4. All compounds were fully characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystal structure determinations. Initial safety testing (impact and friction sensitivity) and thermal stability measurements (DSC/DTA) were also carried out. Energetic performance was calculated by using the PILEM code based on calculated enthalpies of formation and experimental densities at r.t. These salts exhibit excellent burn rates and combustion behavior and are promising ingredients for energetic materials.

Substituted on the benzene ring 4-CF3-2H-chromenes have been prepared from substituted 2-(trifluoroacetyl)phenols and vinyltriphenylphosphonium chloride according to the Schweizer protocol in moderate to excellent yields. The influence of the type and the position of aromatic ring substituents on yields of 4-CF3-2H-chromenes have been investigated. It has been shown that 4-CF3-2H-chromenes are convenient precursors to 4-CF3-coumarins.

A simple and efficient method was developed for the one-pot synthesis of 3-aryl derivatives of ortho-carborane with sensitive functional groups using 3-iodo-ortho-carborane and aryl zinc bromides that were generated in situ. A series of 3-aryl-ortho-carboranes, including those containing nitrile and ester groups, 3-RC6H4-1,2-C2B10H11 (R = p-Me, p-NMe2, p-OCH2OMe, p-OMe, o-CN, p-CN, o-COOEt, m-COOEt, p-COOEt) was synthesized using this approach. The solid-state structures of 3-RC6H4-1,2-C2B10H11 (R = p-OMe, o-CN, and p-CN) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The intramolecular hydrogen bonding involving the ortho-substituents of the aryl ring and the CH and BH groups of carborane was discussed.
RESUMEN
Co-crystallization is an elegant technique to tune the physical properties of crystalline solids. In the field of energetic materials, co-crystallization is currently playing an important role in the engineering of crystals with improved performance. Here, based on an analysis of the structural features of the green primary explosive, tetramethylammonium salt of 7-oxo-5-(trinitromethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrotetrazolo[1,5-a][1,3,5]triazin-5-ide (1), a co-former such as the powerful secondary explosive, benzotrifuroxan (BTF, 2), has been proposed to improve it. Compared to the original 1, its co-crystal with BTF has a higher detonation pressure and velocity, as well as an initiating ability, while the impact sensitivity and thermal stability remained at about the same level. Both co-formers, 1 and 2, and co-crystal 3 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and their crystal packing was analyzed in detail by the set of approaches, including periodic calculations. In the co-crystal 3, all intermolecular interactions were significantly redistributed. However, no new types of intermolecular interactions were formed during co-crystallization. Moreover, the interaction energies of structural units in crystals before and after co-crystallization were approximately the same. A similar trend was observed for the volumes occupied by structural units and their densifications. The similar nature of the organization of the crystals of the co-formers and the co-crystal gives grounds to assert that the selected co-formers are an ideal pair for co-crystallization, and the invariability of the organization of the crystals was probably responsible for the preservation of some of their properties.
RESUMEN
A series of novel cobalt bis(dicarbollide) based amidines were synthesized by the nucleophilic addition of primary and secondary amines to highly activated B-N+≡C-R triple bond of the propionitrilium derivative [8-EtC≡N-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)(1',2'-C2B9H11)]. The reactions with primary amines result in the formation of mixtures of E and Z isomers of amidines, whereas the reactions with secondary amines lead selectively to the E-isomers. The crystal molecular structures of E-[8-EtC(NMe2)=HN-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)(1',2'-C2B9H11)], E-[8-EtC(NEt2)=HN-3,3'-Co(1,2- C2B9H10)(1',2'-C2B9H11)] and E-[8-EtC(NC5H10)=HN-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)(1',2'-C2B9H11)] were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
RESUMEN
9-HC≡CCH2Me2N-nido-7,8-C2B9H11, a previously described carboranyl terminal alkyne, was used for the copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition with azido-3ß-cholesterol to form a novel zwitter-ionic conjugate of nido-carborane with cholesterol, bearing a 1,2,3-triazol fragment. The conjugate of nido-carborane with cholesterol, containing a charge-compensated group in the linker, can be used as a precursor for the preparation of liposomes for BNCT (Boron Neutron Capture Therapy). The solid-state molecular structure of a nido-carborane derivative with the 9-Me2N(CH2)2Me2N-nido-7,8-C2B9H11 terminal dimethylamino group was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Several synthetic approaches (aminomethylation, alkylation, condensation, etc.) have been used to synthesize derivatives based on the sesamol (1), natural phenol. The set of methods, including the study of antioxidant activity (AOA) by the ability to inhibit the initiated oxidation of animal lipids, radical scavenging activity, Fe2+ -chelation ability, as well as a comparative assessment of membrane-protective activity under the conditions of H2 O2 -induced hemolysis of mice red blood cells (RBCs), was used to analyze the antioxidant potential of the synthesized compounds. The synthesized derivatives have demonstrated different activity in the listed test systems, and we have identified compounds which appear to be most promising for a detailed study of their pharmacological properties.

Bis(carboranyl)amides 1,1'-µ-(CH2NH(O)C(CH2)n-1,2-C2B10H11)2 (n = 0, 1) were prepared by the reactions of the corresponding carboranyl acyl chlorides with ethylenediamine. Crystal molecular structure of 1,1'-µ-(CH2NH(O)C-1,2-C2B10H11)2 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Treatment of bis(carboranyl)amides 1,1'-µ-(CH2NH(O)C(CH2)n-1,2-C2B10H11)2 with ammonium or cesium fluoride results in partial deboronation of the ortho-carborane cages to the nido-carborane ones with formation of [7,7'(8')-µ-(CH2NH(O)C(CH2)n-7,8-C2B9H11)2]2-. The attempted reaction of [7,7'(8')-µ-(CH2NH(O)CCH2-7,8-C2B9H11)2]2- with GdCl3 in 1,2-dimethoxy- ethane did not give the expected metallacarborane. The stability of different conformations of Gd-containing metallacarboranes has been estimated by quantum-chemical calculations using [3,3-µ-DME-3,3'-Gd(1,2-C2B9H11)2]- as a model. It was found that in the most stable conformation the CH groups of the dicarbollide ligands are in anti,anti-orientation with respect to the DME ligand, while any rotation of the dicarbollide ligand reduces the stability of the system. This makes it possible to rationalize the design of carborane ligands for the synthesis of gadolinium metallacarboranes on their base.

An unusual reactivity of 9-iodo-nido-carborane [9-I-7,8-C2B9H11]- towards nucleophiles under strong basic conditions was revealed. The nucleophilic substitution of iodine with O- and N-nucleophiles results in [9-RO-7,8-C2B9H11]- (R = H, CH2CH2OMe) and [9-L-7,8-C2B9H11] (L = Py, NEt3, Me2NCH2CH2NMe2), respectively. Reaction of [9-I-7,8-C2B9H11]- with CoCl2 in 1,2-dimethoxyethane in the presence of t-BuOK, depending on the order of addition of the reagents, leads either to a diastereomeric mixture of diiodo derivatives cobalt bis(dicarbollide) rac-[4,4'-I2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2]- and meso-[4,7'-I2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2]- or to the corresponding mixture of 2-methoxyethoxy derivatives rac-[4,4'-(MeOCH2CH2O)2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2]- and meso-[4,7'-(MeOCH2CH2O)2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2]-. In the presence of accidental admixture of sodium thiosulfate, the reactions of 9-iodo-nido-carborane and 9-(2'-methoxyethoxy)-nido-carborane with CoCl2 in 1,2-dimethoxyethane were found to produce additionally unprecedented tricobalt tris(dicarbollide) cluster Na[4,4',4''-(MeOCH2CH2O)3-3,3',3''-Co3(µ3-O)(µ3-S)(1,2-C2B9H10)3], the central fragment of which is a trigonal bipyramid with apical oxygen and sulfur atoms, and the base is formed by the Co3 triangle flanked by three dicarbollide ligands. In addition, the 2-methoxyethoxy substituents of the dicarbollide ligands chelate the sodium cation in such a way that they form a helix whose rotation direction depends on the enantiomer of the parent ligand. Thus, in this case, induction of the helical chirality of the complex occurs due to the point chirality of the initial inorganic ligand. It is worth noting that in the case of symmetrically substituted 2-methoxyethoxy derivative of nido-carborane [10-MeOCH2CH2O-7,8-C2B9H11]- only formation of the corresponding cobalt bis(dicarbollide) complex [8,8'-(MeOCH2CH2O)2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2]- was observed.
RESUMEN
The monoamine oxidase (MAO) enzymes are key metabolic enzymes of neurotransmitter and other bioactive amines, and represent important drug targets for the treatment of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Inhibitors of MAO are established medications for the treatment of depression and Parkinson's disease, and may have future roles in other disease states such as the therapy of prostate cancer, cardiovascular disease and inflammatory diseases. Based on these considerations, the present study synthesizes a series of 22 pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4-one derivatives and evaluated them as potential inhibitors of human MAO-A and MAO-B. The results show that 8 derivatives inhibit MAO-A, and 3 derivatives inhibit MAO-B with IC50 values in the submicromolar range (<1 µM). The most potent MAO-A inhibitor, N-[5-(acetyloxy)-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-7-yl]acetamide (7c), exhibit an IC50 value of 0.028 µM and displays 50-fold selectivity for MAO-A over MAO-B. The most potent MAO-B inhibitor, 2-(4-methylphenyl)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydropyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxaline-7-carbonitrile (4f), exhibit an IC50 value of 0.617 µM and displays 8-fold selectivity for MAO-B. This is the first report of MAO inhibition by pyrazolo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4-one derivatives, and this study concludes that these compounds are suitable leads for the future development of MAO inhibitors, particularly of the MAO-A isoform.

Complexation of the 8,8'-bis(methylsulfanyl) derivatives of cobalt and iron bis(dicarbollides) [8,8'-(MeS)2-3,3'-M(1,2-C2B9H10)2]- (M = Co, Fe) with copper, silver, palladium and rhodium leads to the formation of the corresponding chelate complexes, which is accompanied by a transition from the transoid to the cisoid conformation of the bis(dicarbollide) complex. This transition is reversible and can be used in design of coordination-driven molecular switches based on transition metal bis(dicarbollide) complexes. The solid-state structures of {(Ph3P)ClPd[8,8'- (MeS)2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2-κ2-S,S']} and {(COD)Rh[8,8'-(MeS)2-3,3'-Co(1,2-C2B9H10)2-κ2-S,S']} were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

The first nickelacarborane with closo-nido structure [10',11'-(Py)2-3,9'-Ni(1,2-C2B9H11)(7',8'-C2B8H8)] was isolated from the reaction of nickel(IV) bis(dicarbollide) with pyridine. The molecular structure of this complex was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The nickel atom is a common vertex for the closo-NiC2B9 cluster and the nido-NC2B8 cluster where it is located together with carbon atoms in the open NiC2B2 pentagonal face. It is assumed that its formation proceeds through the nucleophile-induced removal of the B(6)H vertex followed by rearrangement of the forming 11-vertex cluster, which most likely proceeds through a sequence of closing and opening reactions.

Symmetrically and unsymmetrically substituted methylsulfanyl derivatives of nickel(III) bis(dicarbollide) (Bu4N)[8,8'-(MeS)2-3,3'-Ni(1,2-C2B9H10)2], (Bu4N)[4,4'-(MeS)2-3,3'-Ni(1,2-C2B9H10)2], and (Bu4N)[4,7'-(MeS)2-3,3'-Ni(1,2-C2B9H10)2] were synthesized, starting from [Ni(acac)2]3 and the corresponding methylsulfanyl derivatives of nido-carborane (Bu4N)[10-MeS-7,8-C2B9H11] and (Bu4N)[10-MeS-7,8-C2B9H11]. Structures of the synthesized metallacarboranes were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and quantum chemical calculations. The symmetrically substituted 8,8'-isomer adopts transoid conformation stabilized by two pairs of intramolecular C-H···S hydrogen bonds between the dicarbollide ligands. The unsymmetrically substituted 4,7'-isomer adopts gauche conformation, which is stabilized by two nonequivalent C-H···S hydrogen bonds and one short chalcogen B-H···S bond (2.53 Å, -1.4 kcal/mol). The gauche conformation was found to be also preferred for the 4,7'-isomer.

The synthesis of a new energetic 1,2,4-triazole compound bearing nitrofurazanyl and fluorodinitromethyl units, which may find use as a component for rocket ramjet engines (RRE), is described. The target product was prepared in a four-step process applying oxidation/nitration/decarboxylation/fluorination reactions and is fully characterized. Its density and structural features were uniquely determined by X-ray analysis. It is shown that replacing HMX with the compound of this study in boron-based fuels gives an increase in energy.
RESUMEN
Diastereoselective synthesis of triterpenoid 1,2,4-trioxolanes by Griesbaum co-ozonolysis was shown for the first time. Ozonolysis of 2-methoxyoximes (syn-anti-isomers mixture) of allobetulin or methyl oleanoate with CF3-ketones resulted in asymmetrical spiro-1,2,4-trioxolanes as mixtures of diastereomers in yields up to 80-85%. The configuration of the spiro-C-2 center of individual ozonides was determined by 2D NMR spectra and X-ray crystallographic analysis. The products of ozonolysis of triterpenoid 3-methoxyoximes were mixtures of regioisomeric N-methoxylactams. Thus, the fundamental differences in the oxidation of homologous triterpenoid 2- or 3-methoxyoximes with ozone have been established. These results may afford a new stage in the development of the Griesbaum method as applied to natural compounds and biologically active peroxides.
