Mechanism of anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of aluminium alkyls
1995
Methyl methacrylate was polymerized with tert-butyl lithium in the presence of triethylaluminium or triisobutylaluminium at 78°C in toluene. As indicated by GPC and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, the polymerization is accompanied by side reactions. The lower oligomers were fractionated by distillation and characterised by NMR, FT-IR, UV and electron impact (EI) mass spectrometry. All these data show that part of the polymer chains are carrying exactly one tert-butyl isoprenyl ketone unit. In order to avoid the formation of tert-butyl isoprenyl ketone a molar ratio of Al/Li>2 is necessary.
Solution and solid-state studies on the halide binding affinity of perfluorophenyl-armed uranyl–salophen receptors enhanced by anion–π Interactions
2016
The enhancement of the binding between halide anions and a Lewis acidic uranyl-salophen receptor has been achieved by the introduction of pendant electron- deficient arene units into the receptor skeleton. The association and the occurrence of the elusive anion-p interaction with halide anions (as tetrabutylammonium salts) have been demonstrated in solution and in the solid state, providing unambiguous evidence on the interplay of the concerted interactions responsible for the anion binding.
Exploring reactivity of a bis-sulfonium zirconocene-ate dimer: synthesis of various zwitterionic phosphonium anionic zirconocene complexes
2007
Abstract Formal [3+2] cycloaddition reactions between the bis-sulfonium zirconocene-ate dimer 1a and methylpropiolate, benzaldehyde and carbon disulfide afforded stable zwitterionic phosphonium zirconocene-ate complexes 2–4, respectively, with two orthocondensed five-membered heterocycles. X-ray crystal structure of 4 has been determined. Elemental chalcogens (S, Se, Te) gave rise also to a new variety of five-coordinate zirconium(IV) complexes (5–7) by a formal [3+1] cycloaddition reaction. In these bicyclic zirconates, sulfur is included in a five-membered ring while the second chalcogen is in a four-membered one.
"Comment on ""Non-symmetric substituted ureas locked in an (E,Z) conformation: an unusual anion binding via supramolecular assembly"" by M. Olivari, …
2014
We propose another point of view on the type of hydrogen bonded complexes that were described in this journal (M. Olivari et al., New J. Chem., 2013, 37, 663). The main difference is the molecular geometry and breakage of the intramolecular hydrogen bond during association. The current comment is to highlight mentioned aspects and to point out that in some cases the interpretation may not be straightforward due to the simultaneous effects associated with complexation.
Crystal structure of [tris(4,4-bipyridine)]diium bis(1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide) trihydrate
2016
In the title hydrated salt, which was obtained from the hydrothermal reaction between between potassium 1,1,3,3-tetracyano-2-ethoxypropenide and 4,4′-bipyridine in the presence of iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate, the ionic components are linked into a three-dimensional network by C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds.
Nucleophilic benzoylation using lithiated methyl mandelate as a synthetic equivalent of the benzoyl carbanion. Oxidative decarboxylation of α-hydroxy…
2001
Abstract The synthesis of alkyl aryl ketones using lithiated methyl mandelate as a synthetic equivalent of the benzoyl carbanion is reported (Umpolung). The methodology involves alkylation of methyl mandelate, hydrolysis of the ester group and oxidative decarboxylation of the resulting α-hydroxyacids. The last step is carried out in a catalytic aerobic way using a Co(III) complex in the presence of pivalaldehyde under very mild and advantageous conditions. The procedure is also applied to methyl mandelates substituted on the aromatic ring.
Computational investigations of 18-electron triatomic sulfur–nitrogen anions
2018
MRCI-SD/def2-QZVP and PBE0/def2-QZVP calculations have been employed for the analysis of geometries, stabilities, and bonding of isomers of the 18-electron anions N2S2−, NS2−, and NSO−. Isomers of the isoelectronic neutral molecules SO2, S2O, S3, and O3 are included for comparison. The sulfur-centered acyclic NSN2−, NSS−, and NSO− anions are the most stable isomers of their respective molecular compositions. However, the nitrogen-centered isomers SNS− and SNO− lie close enough in energy to their more stable counterparts to allow their occurrence. The experimental structural information, where available, is in good agreement with the optimized bond parameters. The bonding in all investigate…
Polyether Core-Shell Cylinder-Polymerization of Polyglycidol Macromonomers
2005
The synthesis and polymerization of macromonomers containing a polymerizable styrene head group and a tail of ethylene oxide derivatives of different character were investigated. The synthesis of macromonomers was based on living anionic polymerization of oxiranes. Two monomers were used: 1-ethoxyethyl glycidyl ether (glycidol acetal), which after hydrolysis forms hydrophilic glycidol blocks and glycidyl phenyl ether forming hydrophobic blocks. Polymerizable double bonds were introduced by terminating the living chain with p-(chloromethyl)styrene. The radical polymerization of the macromonomers was carried out in water with addition of a non-polar solvent (benzene) and AIBN as initiator. Co…
Isolation of Free Phenylide-like Carbanions with N-Heterocyclic Carbene Frameworks
2009
A series of 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-5-methyl-1,3-diaza-4,6-diborabenzenes with methyl, phenyl, and dimethylamino substituents on the ring boron atoms were prepared using the cyclocondensation reaction between N,N′-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)trimethylsilylformamidine and the appropriately substituted 1,1-bis(organochloroboryl)ethane, followed by deprotonation of the cationic ring intermediate. The planar, heterocyclic benzene analogues could be further deprotonated at the other ring carbon using an additional equivalent of potassium hexamethyldisilazide to yield organometallic derivatives akin to the potassium phenylide. The potassium cations could be efficiently sequestered in both so…
ChemInform Abstract: Multifunctional Poly(ethylene glycol)s
2011
In the rapidly evolving multidisciplinary field of polymer therapeutics, tailored polymer structures represent the key constituent to explore and harvest the potential of bioactive macromolecular hybrid structures. In light of the recent developments for anticancer drug conjugates, multifunctional polymers are becoming ever more relevant as drug carriers. However, the potentially best suited polymer, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), is unfavorable owing to its limited functionality. Therefore, multifunctional linear copolymers (mf-PEGs) based on ethylene oxide (EO) and appropriate epoxide comonomers are attracting increased attention. Precisely engineered via living anionic polymerization and d…
