Mono‐ and Bis(imidazolidinium ethynyl) Cations and Reduction of the Latter To Give an Extended Bis‐1,4‐([3]Cumulene)‐ p ‐carboquinoid System

2018

An extended π-system containing two [3]cumulene fragments separated by a p-carboquinoid and stabilized by two capping N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) has been prepared. Mono- and bis(imidazolidinium ethynyl) cations have also been synthesized from the reaction of an NHC with phenylethynyl bromide or 1,4-bis(bromoethynyl)benzene. Cyclic voltammetry coupled with synthetic and structural studies showed that the dication is readily reduced to a neutral, singlet bis-1,4-([3]cumulene)-p-carboquinoid as a result of the π-accepting properties of the capping NHCs.

Functionalised diimidazolium salts: the anion effect on the catalytic ability

2016

The catalytic ability of some functionalised diimidazolium ionic liquids was tested using the Michael addition of malononitrile to t-chalcone as probe reaction. Diimidazolium salts characterized by the presence of 1-(1-imidazolylmethyl)-3,5-di-[1-(3-octylimidazolylmethyl)]benzene cation and differing in the anion structure were used. Both mono- and dianions were employed and among these some chiral anions generally used as organocatalysts were taken into account. Data collected were analysed both as function of ionic liquids structure and basicity, evaluated using the Hammett basicity function. Although the use of chiral anions did not allow performing a stereochemical control of the reacti…

The title compound, C12H9BrN2O3, was prepared in two steps from 2-chloro-3-nitropyridine. The nitrobiaryl unit is twisted, with dihedral angles of 35.4 (5)° between the nitro substituent and the pyridine ring to which it is bound, and 51.0 (5)° between the nitro group and the benzene ring. In the crystal, the molecules are connectedviaC—H...O hydrogen bonds, forming strands along theb-axis direction.

Modulation of the ordering temperature in anilato-based magnets

2019

Abstract Four new 2D honeycomb anilato-based ferrimagnets with Mn(II) and Cr(III) have been prepared and characterized. These compounds, formulated as (NBu4)[MnCr(C6O4X2)3(PhCHO)]·PhY (X/Y = Cl/H (1), Br/H (2), Cl/CHO (3) and Br/CHO (4) show that it is possible to include benzaldehyde as a co-ligand coordinated to the Mn(II) metal atom in these 2D ferrimagnets. This inclusion increases the coordination number of Mn(II) to seven resulting in a change in the ordering temperatures of these 2D ferrimagnets (from ca. 10–11 K to ca. 7 K). Here we show the role played by the additional benzaldehyde ligand and by the crystallization solvent molecules (benzene in 1 and 2 and benzaldehyde in 3 and 4)…

Combination of magnetic susceptibility and electron paramagnetic resonance to monitor the 1D to 2D solid state transformation in flexible metal-organ…

2012

Two families of coordination polymers, {[M(btix)(2)(OH(2))(2)]·2NO(3)·2H(2)O}(n) [M = Co (1), Zn (2), Co-Zn (3); btix = 1,4-bis(triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene] and {[M(btix)(2)(NO(3))(2)]}(n) [M = Co (4), Zn (5), Co-Zn (6)], have been synthesized and characterized. The two conformations of the ligand, syn and anti, lead to one-dimensional (1D) cationic chains or two-dimensional (2D) neutral grids. Extrusion of the water molecules of the 1D compounds results in an irreversible transformation into the 2D compounds, which involves a change in conformation of the btix ligands and a rearrangement in the metal environment with cleavage and reformation of covalent bonds. This structural transformation…

Synthesis of 1,3-bis(trimethylcyclam) and 1,3-bis(trimethylcyclen) substituted benzenes

2009

Pd-catalyzed amination of 1,3-dibromobenzene with N,N',N''-trimethylcyclam and N,N',N''-trimethylcyclen provided corresponding 1,3-bis(tetraazamacrocyclic) derivatives of benzene in 25-32% yields. The dependence of the products yields on the phosphine ligand applied (BINAP, DavePHOS) as well as on the stoichiometry of starting compounds was established. Scope and limitations for the synthesis of N-phenyl and N-(3-bromophenyl) derivatives of trimethylcyclam and trimethylcyclen were demonstrated.

Synthesis and solid state structure for a series of poly(1-pyrrolylmethyl)benzene derivatives. Control of the interplaying π–π and C–H⋯π interactions?

2006

The syntheses of new hexa- and 1,2,4,5-tetra-1-pyrrolylmethyl-benzene (1 and 2, respectively) compounds and their crystal structures, along with those for the related disubstituted o-, m- and p-di-1-pyrrolylmethyl-benzene (3–5) derivatives are reported. The arrangements of molecules in the 1-D structure for 2–5 are controlled by the interplay of two different weak interactions: π–π and C–H⋯π (Ph) interactions. The absence of such interactions in the packing of 1 seems to be related to the arrangement of the pyrrolylmethyl arms with respect to the benzene core, which prevents the π cloud of the aromatic ring to be part of any intermolecular interaction. In addition, C–H⋯π (pyrrolyl) interact…

2016

The title compound, C32H48O8P2S2, was prepared by the nickel-catalyzed reaction of bis(5-bromothienyl)dipropoxybenzene and triisopropyl phosphite. The thiophene rings are inclined to the benzene ring by 14.6 (2) and 25.3 (3)°. One propyloxy group is disordered. Four hydrogen bonds connect the molecules, which are arranged in ribbons parallel to thebcplane.

Substituent effect on the σ- and π-electron structure of the nitro group and the ring in meta- and para-substituted nitrobenzenes

2017

An application of quantum chemical modeling allowed us to investigate a substituent effect on a σ and π electron structure of a ring and the nitro group in a series of meta- and para-X-substituted nitrobenzene derivatives (X = NMe2, NHMe, NH2, OH, OMe, Me, H, F, Cl, CF3, CN, CHO, COMe, CONH2, COOH, NO2, and NO). The obtained pEDA and sEDA parameters (the π- and σ-electron structure characteristics of a given planar fragment of the system obtained by the summation of π- and σ-orbital occupancies, respectively) of the NO2 group and the benzene ring allowed us to reveal the impact of the substituents on their mutual relations as well as to analyze them from the viewpoint of substituent charact…

DFT Study on the Interaction of Tris(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum Complex with Water. A Hydrolysis Mechanism Involving a Feasible Seven-Coordina…

2016

In the present work, the reactivity of the tris(benzene-1,2-dithiolato)molybdenum complex ([Mo(bdt)3]) toward water is studied by means of the density functional theory (DFT). DFT calculations were performed using the M06, B3P86, and B3PW91 hybrid functionals for comparison purposes. The M06 method was employed to elucidate the reaction pathway, relative stability of the intermediate products, nature of the Mo–S bond cleavage, and electronic structure of the involved molybdenum species. This functional was also used to study the transference of electrons from the molybdenum center toward the ligands. The reaction pathway confirms that [Mo(bdt)3] undergoes hydrolysis, yielding dihydroxo-bis(…
