ChemInform Abstract: Diels-Alder Reactions of Methyl- and π-Acceptor-Substituted 2- Vinylindoles with Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate and Tetracyanoe…
2010
The Diels-Alder reactions of the 2-vinylindoles 1a-1d, which are now readily accessible, with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and tetracyanoethylene give rise to the novel 1,2-dihydro- and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazoles 2, 4, and 5 as well as the fully aromatized carbazoles 3. With regard to the product spectrum, the mechanistic rationale comprises a Diels-Alder step, formal 1,3-hydrogen shift, ene reaction, and dehydrogenation. Conformational aspects of the 1,2-dihydrocarbazoles 2b and 2c are also discussed.
Regiospecific and stereoselective ene reaction of the A-ring methylcyclohexene moiety of polycyclic terpenoid systems with dimethyl acetylenedicarbox…
2001
Polycyclic terpenoid compounds with a methylcyclohexene moiety at the A-ring, such as 1 and 7, give a regio- and stereoselective ene reaction when heated at low temperatures with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. The structure and stereochemistry of the compound formed in the case of 1, e.g. 5, is determined by X-ray analysis.

Theoretical Study of the Reaction of Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate with 1-Methyl-2-(1-substituted vinyl)pyrroles
1995
Abstract A theoretical study of the transition structure for the electrophilic attack step of the 1-methyl-2-vinylpyrrole to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate is reported with analytical gradients at AM1 and PM3 semi-empirical levels and ab initio at 3-21G level. The geometry, electronic structure, and vector components are qualitatively computer level and model independent The competition of the Michael addition reactions and Diels-Alder reactions of 1-methyl-2-(1-substituted vinyl)pyrroles with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate has been studied at the PM3 semi-empirical level.
Synthesis and Chemical Reactivity of 5-Methoxy-2-vinyl-4-azaindoles
1997
Abstract 2-Vinyl-4-azaindoles are less reactive with dienophiles than 2-vinylindoles. 5-Methoxy-2-vinyl-4-azaindole 2a and its 1-methyl derivative 2a reacts with N-phenylmaleimide to yield cycloadducts only under vigorous conditions. 2b produces a cycloadduct with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, while 2a yields a Michael-type adduct. Reactions with more reactive dienophiles gave only polymeric products.
Understanding the mechanisms of [3+2] cycloaddition reactions. The pseudoradical versus the zwitterionic mechanism
2014
Abstract Analysis of 12 three-atom-components (TACs) participating in [3+2] cycloaddition (32CA) reactions towards ethylene and acetylene allows establishing good correlations between the pseudodiradical character, the hardness η, and the nucleophilicity N index of the TAC with the feasibility of these non-polar reaction. These results allow the introduction of the pr index, which comprises the two aforementioned DFT reactivity indices. The increase of the pr index for an allylic-type TAC goes accompanied by a linear decrease of the activation enthalpy of the reaction. The present study makes it possible to establish a useful classification of 32CA reactions into zw-type reactions involving…
Isolated Fe(III)-O Sites Catalyze the Hydrogenation of Acetylene in Ethylene Flows under Front-End Industrial Conditions
2018
[EN] The search for simple, earth-abundant, cheap, and nontoxic metal catalysts able to perform industrial hydrogenations is a topic of interest, transversal to many catalytic processes. Here, we show that isolated FeIII¿O sites on solids are able to dissociate and chemoselectively transfer H2 to acetylene in an industrial process. For that, a novel, robust, and highly crystalline metal¿organic framework (MOF), embedding FeIII¿OH2 single sites within its pores, was prepared in multigram scale and used as an efficient catalyst for the hydrogenation of 1% acetylene in ethylene streams under front-end conditions. Cutting-edge X-ray crystallography allowed the resolution of the crystal structur…
The Important Role of the Nuclearity, Rigidity, and Solubility of Phosphane Ligands in the Biological Activity of Gold(I) Complexes
2018
A series of 4-ethynylaniline gold(I) complexes containing monophosphane (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (pta; 2), 3,7-diacetyl-1,3,7-triaza-5-phosphabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (3), and PR3 , with R=naphthyl (4), phenyl (5), and ethyl (6)) and diphosphane (bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene (dppa; 7), trans-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethene (dppet; 8), 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe; 9), and 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp; 10)) ligands have been synthesized and their efficiency against tumor cells evaluated. The cytotoxicity of complexes 2-10 was evaluated in human colorectal (HCT116) and ovarian (A2780) carcinoma as well as in normal human fibroblasts. All the complexes showed a hi…
Modeling21Ne NMR parameters for carbon nanosystems
2013
The potential of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique in probing the structure of porous systems including carbon nanostructures filled with inert gases is analysed theoretically using accurate calculations of neon ((21) Ne) nuclear magnetic shieldings. The CBS estimates of (21) Ne NMR parameters were performed for single atom, its dimer and neon interacting with acetylene, ethylene and 1,3-cyclopentadiene. Several levels of theory including restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF), Moller-Plesset perturbation theory to the second order (MP2), density functional theory (DFT) with van Voorhis and Scuseria's t-dependent gradient-corrected correlation functional (VSXC), coupled cluster with single …
3D Ruthenium Nanoparticle Covalent Assemblies from Polymantane Ligands for Confined Catalysis
2020
International audience; The synthesis of metal nanoparticle (NP) assemblies stabilized by functional molecules is an important research topic in nanoscience, and the ability to control interparticle distances and positions in NP assemblies is one of the major challenges in designing and understanding functional nanostructures. Here, two series of functionalized adamantanes, bis-adamantanes, and diamantanes, bearing carboxylic acid or amine functional groups, were used as building blocks to produce, via a straightforward method, networks of ruthenium NPs. Both the nature of the ligand and the Ru/ligand ratio affect the interparticle distance in the assemblies. The use of 1,3-adamantanedicarb…
