N-Alkyl ammonium resorcinarene salts: multivalent halogen-bonded deep-cavity cavitands
2015
N-Cyclohexyl ammonium resorcinarene halides, stabilized by an intricate array of hydrogen bonds in a cavitand-like assembly, form multivalent halogen-bonded deep-cavity cavitands with perfluoroiodobenzenes. As observed from the macromolar to infinite concentration range through crystal growth and single crystal X-ray analyses, four 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzenes form moderate halogen bonds with the bromides of the N-cyclohexyl ammonium resorcinarene bromides leading to a deep-cavity cavitand-like structure. In this assembly, the N-cyclohexyl ammonium resorcinarene bromide also acts as a guest and sits in the upper cavity of the assembly interacting with the 1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene throu…
A study of the atmospherically important reactions between dimethyl selenide (DMSe) and molecular halogens (X2 = Cl2, Br2, and I2) with ab initio cal…
2012
The atmospherically relevant reactions between dimethyl selenide (DMSe) and the molecular halogens (X(2) = Cl(2), Br(2), and I(2)) have been studied with ab initio calculations at the MP2/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory. Geometry optimization calculations showed that the reactions proceed from the reagents to the products (CH(3)SeCH(2)X + HX) via three minima, a van der Waals adduct (DMSe:X(2)), a covalently bound intermediate (DMSeX(2)), and a product-like complex (CH(3)SeCH(2)X:HX). The computed potential energy surfaces are used to predict what molecular species are likely to be observed in spectroscopic experiments such as gas-phase photoelectron spectroscopy and infrared matrix isolation s…
Guest-Induced Folding of the N-Benzyl Substituents in an Ammonium Resorcinarene Chloride and the Formation of a Halogen-Bonded Dimer of Capsules
2016
In methanol, N-benzyl ammonium resorcinarene chloride (Bn-NARCl) crystallizes as a solvate with the benzyl groups oriented in an open flower-like manner parallel to the cation–anion seam. 1,4-Dioxane as guest triggers a “semi-closed” single-molecule capsule with two benzyl “arms” enclosing the guest. The introduction of halogen bond (XB) donor 1,4-diiodoperfluorobutane (1,4-DIOFB) additionally folds the remaining two benzyl arms thus resulting in a fully closed capsule. Two 1,4-DIOFB molecules bridge two such Bn-NARCl capsules, forming a 2:2:2 XB held dimeric assembly of single-molecule capsules. The peculiar behavior was not observed in the bromide analog under similar experimental conditi…
Poly-iodinated closo 1,2-C 2 B 10 and nido [7,8-C 2 B 9 ] − carborane frameworks: Synthesis and consequences
2015
Abstract The preparation of Cc-monosubstituted closo and nido carborane derivatives, mono-, di and tetraiodinated is reported. Some of these mono-to poly-iodinated nido carboranes are studied in terms of the acidity of the open face bridging proton, their chemical shift position in the 1H NMR, and the lesser tendency to η5-coordination in parallel to a larger number of iodo groups.
Concerted Halogen-Bonded Networks with N-Alkyl Ammonium Resorcinarene Bromides: From Dimeric Dumbbell to Capsular Architectures
2015
N-Alkyl ammonium resorcinarene bromides and 1,4-diiodooctafluorobutane via multiple intermolecular halogen bonds (XB) form different exotic supramolecular architectures through subtle changes of the upper rim substituents. Dimeric dumbbell-like assembly with encapsulated guest molecules is generated with N-benzyl substituents. The N-hexyl groups engender an XB-induced polymeric pseudocapsule and an XB-induced dimeric capsule with entrapped 1,4-dioxane guest molecules. The N-propyl and N-cyclohexyl groups generate deep cavity cavitands. The deep cavity cavitands possess cavities for self-inclusion leading to polymeric herringbone arrangement in one direction and that pack into 3D polymeric a…
Photochemical versus aluminium chloride-catalyzed fries rearrangement of aryl hydrogen succinates. synthesis of 2(3H)-furanones
1989
The photochemical and aluminium chloride-catalyzed Fries rearrangement of a series of aryl hydrogen succinates3 a–f to the corresponding 4-oxoacids1 a–f are compared. Both approaches are complementary: the photochemical process is more general and becomes the method of choice for the succinoylation of phenols supporting alkoxy or hydroxy substituents, while the classical rearrangement is superior in the presence of alkyl or halogen substituents. These results are applied to the preparation of the 2(3H)-furanones2 a–f.
Determination of halogen species of humic substances using HPLC/ICP-MS coupling
1997
A mass spectrometric method for the determination of chlorine, bromine and iodine species of humic substances (HS) has been developed by coupling a HPLC system with ICP-MS. Using size exclusion chromatography, the method was applied to the characterization of natural water samples (ground water, seepage water from soil, brown water) and a sewage water sample. Quantification of iodine/HS species was carried out by the on-line isotope dilution technique, which was not possible for bromine and chlorine species because of mass spectroscopic interferences by using a quadrupole ICP-MS. Characteristic fingerprints of the halogen/HS species, correlated with the corresponding UV chromatogram, were o…
High-Performance Electron-Transporting Polymers Derived from a Heteroaryl Bis(trifluoroborate)
2011
In this communication, we report that dipotassium aryl bis(trifluoroborate)s make stable and easy-to-purify yet reactive monomers under Suzuki polycondensation reactions. A bis(trifluoroborate) of 2-alkylbenzotriazole was prepared successfully and copolymerized with dibromobenzothiadiazole in the presence of a Pd catalyst and LiOH, yielding high molecular weight conjugated polymers. This polymer (P1) composed of all electron-accepting units shows excellent electron-transport properties (μ(e) = 0.02 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)), which proves the value of the aryl bis(trifluoroborate) monomers and suggests that many other types of semiconducting polymers that could not be accessed previously can be syn…
2,2′:6′,2″-Terpyridine Trimethylplatinum(IV) Iodide Complexes as Bifunctional Halogen Bond Acceptors
2016
Three new organometallic trimethylplatinum(IV) iodide complexes of 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridines have been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The X-ray crystal structures of PtMe3I(L) complexes 1–3 {L for 1 = 4′-chloro-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine, 2 = 4′-(4-cyanophenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine, and 3 = 4′-(4-tolyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine} reveal distorted octahedral coordination geometry of the platinum(IV) metal centers with bidentate coordination of the terpyridine ligands. Complexation of 1–3 with iodopentafluorobenzene (IPFB) afforded single-crystal structures of halogen bond (XB) complexes 1a–3…
Supramolecular Assembly of Metal Complexes by (Aryl)I⋅⋅⋅d[PtII] Halogen Bonds
2020
The theoretical data for the half-lantern complexes [{Pt( CN^ )(μ- SN^ )}2 ] [1-3; CN^ is cyclometalated 2-Ph-benzothiazole; SN^ is 2-SH-pyridine (1), 2-SH-benzoxazole (2), 2-SH-tetrafluorobenzothiazole (3)] indicate that the Pt⋅⋅⋅Pt orbital interaction increases the nucleophilicity of the outer d z2 orbitals to provide assembly with electrophilic species. Complexes 1-3 were co-crystallized with bifunctional halogen bonding (XB) donors to give adducts (1-3)2 ⋅(1,4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene) and infinite polymeric [1⋅1,1'-diiodoperfluorodiphenyl]n . X-ray crystallography revealed that the supramolecular assembly is achieved through (Aryl)I⋅⋅⋅d z2 [PtII ] XBs between iodine σ-holes and lone pa…
