The (31)P MAS NMR spectrum of solid Li(3)P(7)(monoglyme)(3) has been reinvestigated over a wide temperature range (-70 to +77 degrees C) and under conditions of better resolution (Larmor frequency of 162 MHz and spinning rate of approximately 30 kHz) than previously measured (121 MHz and 13 kHz). At low temperatures three spinning sideband (ssb) manifolds are observed: a singlet (centered at -45 ppm relative to 85% H(3)PO(4)) due to the apical atom (A) of the P(7)-cage trianion; a 1 : 1 : 1 triplet (at -110, -117, and -124.5 ppm) due to the negatively charged equatorial (E) atoms, and a one to two doublet (at -161 and -168.5 ppm) due to the basal (B) atoms. These results are consistent with the P(7) cage having nearly, but not perfect, C(3v) symmetry. The compound appears to be well ordered in the solid state with very little structural dispersity. On heating, the NMR lines broaden and eventually coalesce into a single ssb manifold. This behavior is ascribed to bond-shift rearrangement similar to the Cope rearrangement in bullvalene. A MAS 2D exchange experiment and a quantitative analysis of the 1D NMR lineshapes indicate that, unlike in solution where the rearrangement involves a single bond shift at a time, in the solid the process involves a succession of two bond shifts: The first leads to an intermediate species in which the rearranged P(7) cage is inverted, while in the subsequent step a second bond shift takes place that also restores the original orientation of the cage in the lattice. The overall effect of the double bond shift is equivalent to cyclic permutation of the phosphorus atoms within the five member rings of the P(7)-cage. The quantitative analysis of the dynamic lineshapes shows that this cyclic permutation proceeds at a different rate in one ring (k(d)(1)) than in the other two (k(d)(2,3)). The kinetic parameters for these processes are E(a)(1)=18.7 kJ/mol, E(a)(2,3)=58.0 kJ/mol, k(d)(1)(17 degrees C)=k(d)(2,3)(17 degrees C)=10(4) s(-1). No indications for independent threefold molecular jumps of the P(7) cage were found.

Reaction of [(triphos)Re(CO)(2)(OTf)] (1) [triphos = MeC(CH(2)PPh(2))(3); OTf = OSO(2)CF(3)] with P(4)S(3) and P(4)Se(3) yields pairs of coordination isomers, namely, [(triphos)Re(CO)(2)[eta(1)-P(apical)-P(4)X(3)]](+) (X = S, 2; Se, 5) and [(triphos)Re(CO)(2)[eta(1)-P(basal)-P(4)X(3)]](+) (X = S, 3; Se, 6). The latter represent the first examples of the eta(1)-P(basal) coordination achieved by the P(4)X(3) molecular cage. Further reaction of 2/3 and 5/6 mixtures with 1 affords the dinuclear species [[(triphos)Re(CO)(2)](2)[mu,eta(1:1)-P(apical,)P(basal)-P(4)X(3)]](2+) (X = S, 4; Se, 7) in which the unprecedented M-eta(1)-P(basal)/eta(1)-P(apical)-M' bridging coordination of the P(4)X(3) molecule is accomplished. A theoretical analysis of the bonding properties of the two coordination isomers is also presented. The directionality of apical vs basal phosphorus lone pairs is also discussed in terms of MO arguments.

Reaction of RPCl(2) with tris(2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-methylbenzyl)amine (4) led to the formation of a tricoordinated phosphonite (1) when R = Ph and to a hexacoordinated phosphorane-phosphatrane (2) when R = Et. The X-ray structures showed that the unreacted hydroxyl group in 1 oxidatively added to phosphorus in 2 leading to the formation of three additional bonds, a P[bond]O, a P[bond]H, and a P[bond]N linkage. In solution, (31)P measurements assisted by solid-state (31)P measurements revealed that each of the compounds existed in both structural forms. VT (31)P established equilibria where the solid-state structures predominated in each case. This is the first example of a conversion of three-coordinate to six-coordinate phosphorus on going from the solid to the solution state and the existence of these two disparate geometries in equilibrium with one another in solution. In the absence of steric protection with the use of an analogous amine (5) without tert-butyl groups, a hydrolysis reaction occurred with PhPCl(2). X-ray analysis revealed an anionic phenylphosphinate structure (3) hydrogen bonded in a cage-like arrangement with the protonated amine. Similar hydrolysis reactions take place with 1 and 2 but much more slowly.

The aim of this experiment was to identify the location of the biochemical changes associated with depressed mineralization during space flight. We carried out biochemical analysis of 4 sections of the femoral diaphyses from 107 day old male rats flown aboard Cosmos 2044 Biosatellite for 16 days. Control femurs were preflight, vivarium, synchronous for feed, cage and temperature exposure, and a flight simulation model. Distal sections in both the flight and synchronous femurs showed mineral deficits associated with reduced levels of the reducible cross-link product of type I collagen, dehydro-dihydroxylysinonorleucine (deH-DHLNL) (p<.05). Unloaded bones in the ground based flight simulation model showed changes in cross-links similar to flight and synchronous controls, but were not associated with the mineral deficit. Mean values of elements measured in each section of all groups revealed significant associations (p<.005) between the non-collagenous protein, osteocalcin and calcium (r=0.774), phosphorus (r=-.624) and deH-DHLNL/deH-HLNL (r=.883). The ratio of the nonreducible cross-link, pyridinoline, to its lysl analogue, deoxypyridinoline, was consistently lower in the distal than proximal sections of the groups tested. None of the changes during space flight were unique to flight bone. The most significant and extensive changes in bone composition, i.e. mineral deficits associated with changes in both osteocalcin and reducible cross-links, were located in the distal section of the diaphysis of the femur.

Three hundred, day-old broiler chicks, with an average initial weight of 41.8 +/- 1.79 g, were used in a 15-day study (10 birds per battery cage) to characterize their performance and fluorine status when dicalcium phosphate (DCP) was replaced by Busumbu rock phosphate (BRP) as the source of phosphorus in the chicks' ration. The treatments comprised a standard ration with BRP replacing 0, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% of DCP. Replacing DCP with BRP significantly reduced the final weight of the chicks (p < 0.01), feed intake (p < 0.01), weight gains (p < 0.01) and dry matter digestibility (p < 0.05) but increased (p < 0.05) the feed-to-gain ratio. True phosphorus absorption and the percentage of phosphorus in the tibia were not affected by increasing amounts of BRP in the diet. Increasing levels of BRP in the diet linearly reduced (p < 0.01) the percentage bone ash, calcium, Ca:P ratio, ultimate breaking force, bending moment, stress, and modulus of elasticity. Leg stiffness, lameness, reduced feed intake, and a decline in general health were recorded in 10-40% of the chicks on 75% and 100% BRP, respectively. These results suggest that excessive ingestion of fluorine from the BRP caused the reduction in the chicks' performance.

Several independent synthetic routes are described leading to the formation of a novel unsaturated tetracyclic phosphorus carbon cage compound tBu4C4P6 (1), which undergoes a light-induced valence isomerization to produce the first hexaphosphapentaprismane cage tBu4C4P6 (2). A second unsaturated isomer tBu4C4P6 (9) of 1 and the bis-[W(CO)5] complex 13 of 1 are stable towards similar isomerization reactions. Another starting material for the synthesis of the hexaphosphapentaprismane cage tBu4C4P6 (2) is the trimeric mercury complex [(tBu4C4P6)Hg]3 (11), which undergoes elimination of mercury to afford the title compound 2. Single-crystal X-ray structural determinations have been carried out on compounds 1, 2, 9, 11, and 13.

Sediment oxygen consumption, TCO2 production and nutrient fluxes across the sediment-water interface were measured in sediments within and along a transect from four fish pens with production of milkfish (Chanos chanos) in the Bolinao area, The Philippines. The four fish pens were each representing a specific period in the production cycling. There was a positive linear relationship between the rates of sedimentation inside the fish pens and the sediment oxygen consumption indicating that the benthic processes were controlled by the input of organic matter from fish production. The nutrient fluxes were generally higher inside the fish pens, and nitrate was taken up (1.7-5.8 mmol m(-2) d(-1)) whereas ammonium (1-22 mmol m(-2) d(-1)) and phosphate (0.2-4.7 mmol m(-2) d(-1)) were released from the sediments. The sediments were enriched in organic matter with up to a factor 4 compared to outside. A mass balance for one crop of milkfish was constructed based on production data and on measured fluxes of nutrients in the fish pens to assess the loss of carbon and nutrients to the environment. There was a loss to the surroundings of carbon and nitrogen of 51-68% of the total input, whereas phosphorus was buried in the sediments inside the fish pens which acted as net sinks of phosphorus. The results obtained suggest that fish pen culture as practiced in the Bolinao area, leads to even greater impacts on benthic carbon and nutrient cycling than those found in suspended cage cultures.

(CuI)(3)P(4)S(4) is obtained by reaction of stoichiometric amounts of CuI, P, and S in evacuated silica ampoules. The yellow compound consists of monomeric beta-P(4)S(4) cage molecules that are separated by hexagonal columns of CuI. (CuI)(3)P(4)S(4) crystallizes isotypic to (CuI)(3)P(4)Se(4) in the hexagonal system, space group P6(3)cm (no. 185) with a=19.082(3), c=6.691(1) A, V=2109.9(6) A(3), and Z=6. Three of the four phosphorus atoms are bonded to copper, whereas no bonds between copper and sulfur are observed. The two crystallographically distinct copper sites are clearly differentiated by (65)Cu magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, an unequivocal assignment of the (31)P MAS-NMR spectra is possible on the basis of homo- and heteronuclear dipole-dipole and scalar interactions. Dipolar coupling to the adjacent quadrupolar spins (63, 65)Cu generates a clear multiplet structure of the peaks attributable to P1 and P2, respectively. Furthermore, the utility of a newly developed two-dimensional NMR technique is illustrated to reveal direct connectivity between P atoms based on ((31)P-(31)P) scalar interactions.

PX(4) (+)[Al(OR)(4)](-) (X=I: 1 a, X=Br: 1 b) was prepared from X(2), PX(3), and Ag[Al(OR)(4)] [R=C(CF(3))(3)] in CH(2)Cl(2) at -30 degrees C in 69-86 % yield. P(2)X(5) (+) salts were prepared from 2 PX(3) and Ag[Al(OR)(4)] in CH(2)Cl(2) at -30 degrees C yielding almost quantitatively P(2)X(5) (+)[Al(OR)(4)](-) (X=I: 3 a, X=Br: 3 b). The phosphorus-rich P(5)X(2) (+) salts arose from the reaction of cold (-78 degrees C) mixtures of PX(3), P(4), and Ag[Al(OR)(4)] giving P(5)X(2) (+)[Al(OR)(4)](-) (X=I: 4 a, X=Br: 4 b) with a C(2v)-symmetric P(5) cage. Silver salt metathesis presumably generated unstable PX(2) (+) cations from PX(3) and Ag[Al(OR)(4)] (X=Br, I) that acted as electrophilic carbene analogues and inserted into the Xbond;X (Pbond;X/Pbond;P) bond of X(2) (PX(3)/P(4)) leading to the highly electrophilic and CH(2)Cl(2)-soluble PX(4) (+) (P(2)X(5) (+)/P(5)X(2) (+)) salts. Reactions that aimed to synthesize P(2)I(3) (+) from P(2)I(4) and Ag[Al(OR)(4)] instead led to anion decomposition and the formation of P(2)I(5)(CS(2))(+)[(RO)(3)Al-F-Al(OR)(3)](-) (5). All salts were characterized by variable-temperature solution NMR studies (3 b also by (31)P MAS NMR), Raman and/or IR spectroscopy as well as X-ray crystallography (with the exception of 4 a). The thermochemical volumes of the Pbond;X cations are 121 (PBr(4) (+)), 161 (PI(4) (+)), 194 (P(2)Br(5) (+)), 271 (P(2)I(5) (+)), and 180 A(3) (P(5)Br(2) (+)). The observed reactions were fully accounted for by thermochemical calculations based on (RI-)MP2/TZVPP ab initio results and COSMO solvation enthalpy calculations (CH(2)Cl(2) solution). The enthalpies of formation of the gaseous Pbond;X cations were derived as +764 (PI(4) (+)), +617 (PBr(4) (+)), +749 (P(2)I(5) (+)), +579 (P(2)Br(5) (+)), +762 (P(5)I(2) (+)), and +705 kJ mol(-1) (P(5)Br(2) (+)). The insertion of the intermediately prepared carbene analogue PX(2) (+) cations into the respective bonds were calculated, at the (RI-)MP2/TZVPP level, to be exergonic at 298 K in CH(2)Cl(2) by Delta(r)G(CH(2)Cl(2))=-133.5 (PI(4) (+)), -183.9 (PBr(4) (+)), -106.5 (P(2)I(5) (+)), -81.5 (P(2)Br(5) (+)), -113.2 (P(5)I(2) (+)), and -114.5 kJ mol(-1) (P(5)Br(2) (+)).

The deep-red, air-stable complexes [Pt(2)Hg(2)(P(2)phen)(3)](PF(6))(2), 1, or [Pd(2)Hg(2)(P(2)phen)(3)](PF(6))(2), 2, (P(2)phen is 2,9-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,10-phenanthroline) are most conveniently prepared by the stoichiometric reaction of either Pt(dba)(2) or Pd(2)(dba)(3).CHCl(3) (dba is dibenzylideneacetone) with P(2)phen and a single drop of elemental mercury in refluxing dichloromethane under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The (31)P[(1)H] NMR spectrum (CD(3)CN) of 1 shows a single sharp resonance at 43.1 ppm for the phosphorus atoms of the P(2)phen ligand with both (195)Pt ((1)J(P-Pt) = 4350 Hz) and (199)Hg ((2)J(P-Hg) = 620 Hz) satellites indicating the Hg(2)(2+) unit is dynamic. Compound 2 has a similar resonance at 44.9 ppm with (199)Hg satellites ((2)J(P-Hg) = 638 Hz). The (199)Hg NMR (CD(2)Cl(2), vs Hg(OAc)(2)) spectrum of 2 shows a heptet pattern at 833 ppm while for 1 a heptet superimposed on a doublet of heptets is observed at 770.8 ppm. The (195)Pt NMR spectrum of 1 displays a quartet at -3071 ppm with (199)Hg satellites and a (1)J(Pt-Hg) value of 1602 Hz. Characterization of 1 and of 2(BF(4)(2) by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies confirms the metallocryptand structure consisting of three phosphine-imine ligands forming a D(3) symmetric cage with a Hg(2)(2+) ion in its center coordinated to two phenanthroline rings with the Hg-Hg bond (1, 2.7362(6); 2(BF(4)(2), 2.6881(4) A) oriented perpendicular to the vector between the trigonally coordinated Pt(0) or Pd(0) atoms on each end. The Pt-Hg separations in 1 average 2.8143(6) A while in 2(BF(4)(2) the average Pd-Hg separation is 2.7698(5) A. Excitation into the low energy excitation bands of 1 (475 nm) and 2 (430 nm) produces weak emissions centered at 593 nm with shoulders at 530 and 654 nm in 1 and centered at 524 nm with a shoulder at 545 nm in 2.
