A novel synthetic approach to pyran-2,4-dione scaffold production : microwave-assisted dimerization, cyclization, and expeditious regioselective conv…
2020
Here, we report a novel, green, simple, low-cost, and rapid methodology for the high-yield production of pyran-2,4-dione scaffolds under microwave irradiation. Regio- and stereoselective conversions of β-diketone systems into β-enaminones were achieved using 18 primary amines and four amino acid esters. Microwave-assisted further cyclization of 3-(β-substitutedvinyl)-6-phenyl-pyran-2,4-dione into 3-benzoyl-4,7-diphenyl-2H,5H-pyrano[4,3-b]pyran-2,5-dione via reaction with ethyl benzoyl acetate. peerReviewed
Synthesis of silacyclopent-2-en-4-ols via intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of benzoyl(allyl)silanes
2019
Organosilicon compounds are versatile units with a wide range of uses from medicinal chemistry to the field of organic electronics. An unprecedented method for the synthesis of novel diaryl-substituted silacyclopentenols via blue-light promoted intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition of acyl silanes is herein disclosed. Additionally, the present findings demonstrate the influence of the olefin substituents in controlling the regioselectivity of the intramolecular Paternò–Büchi reaction, providing silacycles different from previously reported ones. The high degree of functionalization of these compounds makes them attractive precursors to other synthetically challenging silacyclopentanes. …
Experimental and computational studies of unconventional main group compounds : stable radicals and reactive intermediates
2017
Ever since their discovery, radicals have intrigued the minds of experimental and theoretical chemists alike. While the vast majority of radicals are transient species, a large number of stable and persistent radicals are also known. This has enabled the use of radicals in different applications. For example, radicals are highly useful in chemical synthesis due to their selectivity and functional group tolerance. Detailed knowledge of the electronic structure of synthetic intermediates, both radical and non-radical, enables chemists to improve existing synthesis routes and to design completely new ones. This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part begins with an introduction to the…
Experimental and computational studies of transition metal complexes with polydentate amino- and amidophenolate ligands : synthesis, structure, react…
2013
Chelating polydentate ligands play a key role in several areas of modern coordination chemistry. They can be exploited, for example, in catalysis, bioinorganic chemistry, heavy metal abstraction and molecular magnetism. Furthermore, compounds of this type can be found in natural chemicals, commercial products and industrial applications. In this dissertation, several 3d, 4d and 5d transition metal complexes with polydentate amino- and amidophenolate ligands were prepared and their structure, reactivity and magnetic properties were studied with experimental and computational techniques. In the first part of the dissertation, the solid-state structure, reactivity and magnetic properties of 12…
Synthesis, Characterization, and Cytotoxicity of New Spirooxindoles Engrafted Furan Structural Motif as a Potential Anticancer Agent
2022
A new series of spirooxindoles based on ethylene derivatives having furan aryl moiety are reported. The new hybrids were achieved via [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction as an economic one-step efficient approach. The final constructed spirooxindoles have four contiguous asymmetric carbon centers. The structure of 3a is exclusively confirmed using X-ray single crystal diffraction. The supramolecular structure of 3a is controlled by O···H, H···H, and C···C intermolecular contacts. It includes layered molecules interconnected weak C–H···O (2.675 Å), H···H (2.269 Å), and relatively short Cl···Br interhalogen interactions [3.4500(11)Å]. Using Hirshfeld analysis, the percentages of these intermolecul…
Tetracyclic silaheterocycle formed through a pericyclic reaction cascade including a two-fold intramolecular C–C bond activation
2022
Reductive debromination of the tribromoamidosilane 2 gave the tetracyclic silaheterocycle 3 through a unique reaction cascade involving unprecedented two-fold intramolecular cycloaddition by transient silylenes. Experimental and computational analyses of the reaction mechanism allowed the identification of the key intermediates that lead to the silaheterocycle 3 or, alternatively, to the cyclotrisilene 19. peerReviewed
Halogen Bonding between Thiocarbonyl Compounds and 1,2- and 1,4-Diiodotetrafluorobenzenes
2021
The halogen bonding (XB) between 1,2-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,2-DITFB) or 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene (1,4-DITFB) and the selection of different thiocarbonyl acceptors was studied by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. Diiodotetrafluorobenzenes (DITFBs) were found to form C-I···S halogen-bonded 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2 (donor/acceptor ratio) complexes with thiocarbonyls. Lengths of contacts were found to be clearly shorter than the sum of van der Waals radii of iodine and sulfur as well as the contact angles showed values close to linear, so the XB interactions could be verified. One sulfur atom showed the ability to accept one, two, or four XB interactions, and the acceptor angle can…
Anion Responsive Molecular Switch Based on a Doubly‐Strapped Calix[4]pyrrole
2022
A calix[4]pyrrole receptor bearing two proximally meso - meso linking isophthaloyl straps displays open and closed states depending on the calix[4]pyrrole conformation. In the crystal structures and in non-polar solvent, the calix[4]pyrrole adopts open 1,3-alternate conformation with straps on the sides. Anion binding triggers a closed state of the receptor providing two types of interactions with an aromatic benzoate guest: hydrogen bonds from the pyrrolic groups and π ··· π interactions from the phenyl groups of the straps. Slow exchange dynamics was observed on the NMR timescale indicating that benzoate, acetate and chloride anions, which bind with relatively low affinity get kinetically…
Halogen bonds in 2,5-dihalopyridine-copper(II) chloride complexes
2018
Ten coordination complexes obtained through a facile reaction between 2,5-dihalopyridines and copperIJII) chloride (CuCl2) are characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. Two series of dihalopyridine complexes based on 2-chloro-5-X-pyridine and 2-bromo-5-X-pyridine (X = F, Cl, Br and I) were prepared to analyze the C–X2/X5⋯Cl–Cu halogen bonds (XB). The influence of X2- and X5-substituents on the respective interactions was examined by comparing them to the X2/X3⋯Cl–Cu XBs found in mono-substituted halopyridine complexes, (n-X-pyridine)2·CuCl2 (n = 2, 3 and X = Cl, Br and I). Varying the X5-halogens in (2,5-dihalopyridine)2·CuCl2, the C5–X5⋯Cl–Cu XBs follow the order F5 1 and they c…
Extended Assemblies of Ru(bpy)(CO)2X2 (X = Cl, Br, I) Molecules Linked by 1,4-Diiodotetrafluoro-Benzene (DITFB) Halogen Bond Donors
2019
The ruthenium carbonyl compounds, Ru(bpy)(CO)2X2 (X = Cl, Br or I) act as neutral halogen bond (XB) acceptors when co-crystallized with 1,4-diiodotetrafluoro-benzene (DITFB). The halogen bonding strength of the Ru-X&sdot
