Iron derivatives

The synthesis of 2,4-dihydroxyacetophenone [89-84-9] (21) by acylation reactions of resorcinol has been extensively studied. The reaction is performed using acetic anhydride (104), acetyl chloride (105), or acetic acid (106). The esterification of resorcinol by acetic anhydride followed by the isomerization of the diacetate intermediate has also been described in the presence of zinc chloride (107). Alkylation of resorcinol can be carried out using ethers (108), olefins (109), or alcohols (110). The catalysts which are generally used include sulfuric acid, phosphoric and polyphosphoric acids, acidic resins, or aluminum and iron derivatives. 2-Chlororesorcinol [6201-65-1] (22) is obtained by a sulfonation—chloration—desulfonation technique (111). 1,2,4-Trihydroxybenzene [533-73-3] (23) is obtained by hydroxylation of resorcinol using hydrogen peroxide (112) or peracids (113). 

Formation of borabenzene ligands requires more forcing conditions. Prolonged irradiation of 45 slowly produces [Fe(CO)2(C5HsBPh)]2 (48) (29), and pyrolysis affords bis(boratabenzene)iron derivatives in all cases (65,67,68). 

Colquhoun and Schumacher [98] have shown that y-linolcnic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, which inhibit Walker tumor growth in vivo, decreased proliferation and apoptotic index in these cells. Development of apoptosis was characterized by the enhancement of the formation of reactive oxygen species and products of lipid peroxidation and was accompanied by a decrease in the activities of mitochondrial complexes I, III, and IV, and the release of cytochrome c and caspase 3-like activation of DNA fragmentation. Earlier, a similar apoptotic mechanism of antitumor activity has been shown for the flavonoid quercetin [99], Kamp et al. [100] suggested that the asbestos-induced apoptosis in alveolar epithelial cells was mediated by iron-derived oxygen species, although authors did not hypothesize about the nature of these species (hydroxyl radicals, hydrogen peroxide, or iron complexes ).

As mentioned earlier, the bulky terphenyl thiolate ligand -SC6H3-2,6-Mes2 has been shown to stabilize nominal two-coordination in transition metal complexes.53,54 Figure 30 represents the X-ray crystal structure of the iron derivative, Fe(SC6H3-2,6-Mes2)2.53... 

In 1991, Park reported123 the first synthesis of iron alkynylcarbene complexes (184), involving the nucleophilic attack of a lithium acetylide on pentacarbonyl iron, followed by electrophilic quench. With such compounds in hand, he proceeded to investigate their reactivity123,124 and found that upon addition of cyclopentadiene to the alkynylcarbene complexes 184, the products formed were 774-vinylketene complexes (185). During column chromatography, some of these products (185.a and 185.b) were transformed into the tricarbonyl(norbornadiene)iron derivatives 186. Others (185.C and 185.d, not shown) were hydrolyzed as part of the workup procedure, to afford pure samples of the norbornadiene complexes 186.C and... 

Heme and iron. Aside from bacterial heme, the host him/herself may contribute to heme- and iron-derived pigmentations. Heme and iron compounds may originate from either the pulp or the oral cavity. Pulp-derived discolorations are known, for example, from traumatic teeth (Stanley et al., 1978). The pulp underlying caries lesions may become... 

The expression of several genes is induced or repressed by hemopexin-mediated heme transport. Most of these are simple responses of the cell to the increased heme (or iron derived from heme) in the cell. For example, HO-1 is induced (15, 88), ferritin levels rise (14, 61, 89), the transferrin receptor is down-regulated (15), and hemopexin mRNA itself is induced (A. Smith, unpublished). However, MT-1 is also induced, apparently to prepare the cell for oxidative stress thus, in addition to sequestering heme in a low-spin, non-oxidatively active form, hemopexin also indirectly exerts antioxidant effects by inducing MT-1 (16, 61, 90). 

In the last decade several reports have appeared concerning the preparation of hydroper-0x0 iron derivatives, which can be in equilibrium with their counterpart °. The... 

The Cso carotenoid decaprenoxanthin [2,2 -bis-(4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl)-e,e-carotene (89)] has been prepared from the functionalized a-irone derivative (95), the synthesis of which is outlined in Scheme 1. In the mixture of (89) isomers formed, those with 2,6-trans end-groups predominated.

Fluorosulfuric acid is a widely used, highly effective reagent808 in electrophilic polyene cyclizations to synthesize fully cyclized compounds in a selective and stereospecific way. Furthermore, an internal nucleophile, most often oxygen, allows the construction of polycyclic skeletons with a heteroatom (vide supra). Snowden and co-workers809 transformed trienone 202 (a mixture of 4 diastereomers) into three isomeric irone derivatives [Eq. (5.293)]. Other acids gave inferior results.

In the case of iron derivatives of corrole the data reported in Table 8 seem to indicate that the presence of absorptions in the low energy region of the spectrum is correlated to axial coordination.

Data relative to the HNMR spectra of iron derivatives of H3OEC are reported in Table 13. The spectra of the mononuclear complexes Fe(OEC)L (L = Cl, Ph, Py) are typical of paramagnetic species with broad unresolved signals distributed over a large spectral width.
