RESUMO
The synthesis of a series of ferrocenylvinylketenes as stable η4-[Fe(CO)3] complexes (3a-f) was successfully accomplished through the reaction of η2-[Fe(CO)4] complexes under mild carbonylation conditions. The reactivity of 3a-f under thermal conditions afforded the unexpected formation of a novel family of (µ2,η3-allyl-η5-oxapentadienyl)diiron pentacarbonyl complexes 5a-f proposed to be formed by a sequence metathesis-haptotropic rearrangement between the starting η4-vinylketene iron(0) complex 3 and a η4-vinylcarbene iron(0) complex trapped in situ after a reversible carbonylation process favored by the thermal conditions. An electron density distribution analysis (EDD) of 5e using high-resolution X-ray diffraction data in combination with the DFT framework was performed to understand the electronic communication between the two iron fragments.
RESUMO
Three new lupane-type triterpenes, lippiolide (1), lippiolidolic acid (2), and lippiolic acid (3), were isolated from aerial parts of Lippia mexicana. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited a δ-lactone at ring E. The known cycloartane triterpene 5 was also isolated. The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic data and chemical reactions, and the structure of compound 1 was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. Anti-inflammatory activity of compounds 1, 3, and 5 was evaluated in the TPA-induced ear mouse edema model. Lupanes 1 and 3 were more active than cycloartane 5.

New lanthanide complexes with 4,5-bis(diphenyl)phosphoranyl-1,2,3-triazolate (L(-)), LnL(3).nH(2)O (1-8) and LnL(3)(phen).nH(2)O (9-16) (Ln = La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Er), have been prepared and spectroscopically characterized. The structures of LnL(3).nH(2)O (Ln = La, Ce, Nd, Sm and Gd) were determined by X-ray crystallography. The metal centers exhibit a distorted trigonal dodecahedron coordination environment with two symmetrically O,O-bidentate ligands and one unsymmetrically O,N- ligand attached to the metal; two oxygen atoms from neighboring dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) molecules complete the coordination sphere. This unsymmetrical ligand coordination behavior was also identified in solution through (31)P{(1)H} NMR studies. Photoluminescence spectroscopy experiments in CH(2)Cl(2) for both types of complexes containing Eu(III) (6, 14) and Tb(III) (7, 15) exhibit strong characteristic red and green emission bands for Eu(III) and Tb(III), respectively. Furthermore, NdL(3) (phen).5H (2)O (11) displays emission in the near-infrared spectral region ((4)F(3/2) --> (4)F(9/2) at 872 nm and (4)F(3/2) --> (4)F(11/2) at 1073 nm). The complexes containing 1,10-phenantroline exhibit higher quantum yields upon excitation at 267 nm, indicating that this auxiliary ligand promotes the luminescence of the complexes; however, luminescence lifetimes (tau) in this case are shorter than those of the LnL(3).nH(2)O series.
