Electrochemical Synthesis of 2-Hydroxy-para-terphenyls by Dehydrogenative Anodic C–C Cross-Coupling Reaction
2019
The anodic C–C cross-coupling reaction provides fast access to a wide range of bi- and terarylic scaffolds by electrochemically mediated arylation reactions. Herein, a metal- and reagent-free electrosynthetic protocol for the synthesis of nonsymmetrical 2-hydroxy-para-teraryl derivatives is presented for the first time. It is scalable, easy to conduct, and allows the use of a broad variety of different functional groups.

Synthese substituierter 1,4-Divinylbenzole durch doppelte Heck-Reaktion mit Ethen unter Druck
1999
Substituted 1,4-divinylbenzenes 3a–i were synthesized by twofold Heck coupling from the corresponding 1,4-dibromo) (electron withdrawing substituents) or 1,4-di-iododialkoxybenzenes 1a–i and ethene. Oligomerizations could be suppressed by increasing the pressure of ethene to 30 bar, simultaneously improving the yields of the title compounds.

Linking Electrostatic Effects and Protein Motions in Enzymatic Catalysis. A Theoretical Analysis of Catechol O-Methyltransferase
2014
The role of protein motions in enzymatic catalysis is the subject of a hot scientific debate. We here propose the use of an explicit solvent coordinate to analyze the impact of environmental motions during the reaction process. The example analyzed here is the reaction catalyzed by catechol O-methyltransferase, a methyl transfer reaction from S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to the nucleophilic oxygen atom of catecholate. This reaction proceeds from a charged reactant to a neutral product, and then a large electrostatic coupling with the environment could be expected. By means of a two-dimensional free energy surface, we show that a large fraction of the environmental motions needed to attain the…
Vibronic Relaxation Pathways in Molecular Spin Qubit Na9[Ho(W5O18)2]·35H2O under Pressure
2023
In order to explore how spectral sparsity and vibronic decoherence pathways can be controlled in a model qubit system with atomic clock transitions, we combined diamond anvil cell techniques with synchrotron-based far infrared spectroscopy and first-principles calculations to reveal the vibrational response of Na9[Ho(W5O18)2]·35H2O under compression. Because the hole in the phonon density of states acts to reduce the overlap between the phonons and f manifold excitations in this system, we postulated that pressure might move the HoO4 rocking, bending, and asymmetric stretching modes that couple with the MJ = ±5, ±2, and ±7 levels out of resonance, reducing their …
Unique direct synthesis of cyanide-bridged Fe2Cu2 molecular squares by destruction of sodium nitroprusside
2009
Abstract The one-pot reaction of copper powder, sodium nitroprusside, ammonium thiocyanate and 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) in acetonitrile solution at ambient conditions of air and water yields the novel heterometallic [Fe2Cu2(bpy)6(μ-CN)4(NCS)2]2[Fe(CN)5(NO)](NCS)2·5H2O complex 1, which has been structurally and magnetically characterized. The most prominent feature of this complex is the unique tetranuclear Fe 2 II Cu 2 II squares comprised [Cu(bpy)NCS]+ and [Fe(bpy)2]2+ corners with CN edges. The Cu⋯Cu and Fe⋯Fe separations are ∼6.72 and ∼7.73 A, respectively. The variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility study revealed that a very weak antiferromagnetic coupling is active between Cu(II) ce…
SBA-15/POSS-Imidazolium Hybrid as Catalytic Nanoreactor
2019
Supported imidazolium modified polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) on SBA-15 have been used as platform for Pd(II) species. The so-obtained material was firstly characterized by means of TGA, solid state NMR, TEM, XPS, SAXS, porosimetry and ICP-OES and it was successfully tested as pre-catalyst in C−C cross couplings, namely Suzuki-Miyaura and Heck reactions. In both cases, the solid proved to be highly efficient and easily recoverable from the reaction mixture. The recyclability was verified for up to seven cycles without showing any activity decrease. Interestingly, only Pd(II) was detected in the reused catalyst in the Heck reaction. Therefore, the versatility of the material w…
A dihydrogen arsenate-mediated supramolecular network: crystal structure and magnetic properties of {[(bipy)Cu(μ-H2AsO4)(H2AsO4)]2}n
2002
Treatment of an aqueous suspension of Cu(OH)2 and 2,2′-bipyridine (bipy) with either Na2HAsO4·7H2O (1∶1∶2) or As2O5 (1∶1∶1) yields single crystals of {[(bipy)Cu(μ-H2AsO4)(H2AsO4)]2}n, 1, on standing. The solid-state structure of 1 consists of a three dimensional supramolecular network, supported by a combination of coordination covalent, hydrogen bonding and face-to-face π–π interactions. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal very weak antiferromagnetic coupling between Cu(II) centres across the dihydrogen arsenate bridges (J = −0.58 cm−1).
