Source of Selectivity in Oxidative Cross-Coupling of Aryls by Solvent Effect of 1,1,1,3,3,3-Hexafluoropropan-2-ol
2015
Abstract Solvents such as 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) with a high capacity for donating hydrogen bonds generate solvates that enter into selective cross-coupling reactions of aryls upon oxidation. When electric current is employed for oxidation, reagent effects can be excluded and a decoupling of nucleophilicity from oxidation potential can be achieved. The addition of water or methanol to the electrolyte allows a shift of oxidation potentials in a specific range, creating suitable systems for selective anodic cross-coupling reactions. The shift in the redox potentials depends on the substitution pattern of the substrate employed. The concept has been expanded from arene-phenol…

THE KINETICS AND MECHANISM OF THE REACTION OF ONIUM CYCLOPENTADIENYLIDES WITH TETRAHALO-p-BENZOQUINONES
1989
Abstract The reaction of triphenylphosphonium cyclopentadienylide (1) with halogen-substituted p-benzoquinones (4) is shown to give a new class of dipolar (zwitterionic) dyes (5) containing phosphorus. The general structure of these molecules has been investigated by a combination of mass spectrometry and multinuclear (7H, 13C and 31P) nmr using the specialist techniques of DEFT spectroscopy, homonuclear (COSY) and heteronuclear 2-D nmr. In addition, stopped-flow (uv/visible) techniques have been used to study the kinetics of the reactions and hence demonstrate that the rate-limiting step is nucleophilic addition of the ylid nucleophile to the quinone, followed by a rapid loss of halide ion…
Coupling of Azomethine Ylides with Nitrilium Derivatives ofcloso-Decaborate Clusters: A Synthetic and Theoretical Study
2012
The azomethine ylides p-R3C5H4N+CH−COC6H4R2-p (3 a: R3=H, R2=H, X=Br; 3 b: R3=H, R2=Me, X=I; 3 c: R3=H, R2=OMe, X=I; 3 d: R3=H, R2=F, X=I; 3 e: R3=Me, R2=Me, X=Br) react with the nitrile functionality of the closo-decaborate clusters [Bun4N][B10H9(NCR1)] (1 a: R1=Me; 1 b: R1=Et; 1 c: R1=Ph) in a CH3NO2 solution under mild conditions (20–25 °C, 2 min) to afford selectively products of the nucleophilic addition (ca. quantitative yields based on NMR analysis in [D6]DMSO, 71–87 % yield of isolated products). These products are the borylated enamino ketones as the salts bearing exclusively a tetrabutylammonium cation [Bun4N][B10H9{NCR1=C(N+C5H4R3-p)COC6H4R2-p}] (4 a–h,k–n) or the mixed salts [Bu…
Photoaffinity cross-linking of F1ATPase from spinach chloroplasts by 3'-arylazido-beta-alanyl-8-azido ATP.
1994
UV irradiation of the ATPase (CF1) from spinach chloroplasts in the presence of 3'-arylazido-beta-alanyl-8-azido ATP (8,3'-DiN3ATP) results in a nucleotide-dependent inactivation of the enzyme and in a nucleotide-dependent formation of alpha-beta cross-links. The results demonstrate an interfacial localization of the nucleotide binding sites on CF1.
Photoelectrochemical and EPR features of polymeric C 3 N 4 and O-modified C 3 N 4 employed for selective photocatalytic oxidation of alcohols to alde…
2019
Four different C 3 N 4 specimens have been prepared, a bulk one (MCN), a thermally etched (MCN-TE), a solid prepared by hydrothermally treating MCN with H 2 O 2 (MCN-H 2 O 2 ) and a polymeric carbon nitride-hydrogen peroxide adduct (MCN-TE-H 2 O 2 ). The principal aim of this work was to correlate the capability of the prepared material to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), under irradiation, with their photocatalytic activities in terms of conversion and selectivity for partial oxidation reactions. Photoelectrochemical studies revealed that MCN-TE represented the best material in terms of photoconductivity, whereas MCN-H 2 O 2 was defective and evidenced a poor mobility of carriers. E…
Photocyclization of a bichromophoric phenol/olefi system substituted at the methylene spacer - Zwitterions versus H-bridged intermediates in the exci…
2002
Photolysis of (E)- and (Z)-2-(1-ethyl-3-phenylpropenyl)phenol (1 and 2) under a variety of conditions produces a mixture of dihydrobenzopyrans 3 and 4, dihydrobenzofuran 5, cyclopropanes 6 and 7, and rearranged olefin 8. Acidic treatment of 1 and 2 gives a mixture of the six-membered ring products 3 and 4. Remarkable differences, associated with the nature of the precursor and the reaction conditions, are observed in the regiochemistry of cyclization and in the stereochemistry of the dihydrobenzopyrans (3/4 ratio). This points in favour of an H-bridged intermediate, rather than a fully zwitterionic species, as the direct precursor of the photocyclized products.
Evolution of the optimal catalytic systems for the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane: The role of adsorption in the catalytic performance
2022
Three samples that correspond to the evolution of optimal catalytic systems for the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane have been synthesized and compared in terms of catalytic behavior and adsorption properties: (i) vanadium oxide supported on alumina, (ii) Sn-promoted NiO, and (iii) multicomponent MoVTeNbO with the M1 structure. The main difference in catalytic performance lies in the extent of the overoxidation of the ethylene formed, following the order VOx/Al2O3 > NiSnOx > MoVTeNb-M1. Accordingly, the selectivity to ethylene at medium and high ethane conversion follows the order MoVTeNb-M1 > NiSnOx > VOx/Al2O3. These results are confirmed by the relative reaction rates observed for the…
Pulse radiolysis and theoretical investigation on the initial mechanism of the e-beam polymerization of epoxy resins. The results obtained on (phenox…
2007
Abstract The radical cation of (phenoxymethyl)oxirane ( PGE ⋅ + ) is generated by pulse radiolysis in dichloromethane solution and by direct action of radiation on the title compound. In the pure system its UV–vis spectrum is characterized by two bands at 340 and 430 nm, such that the electronic structure corresponds to a dipole bearing the positive charge on the phenoxy side. At the same time, the phenoxy-oxirane bridge is weakened. Then, the radical cation fragments into a phenoxonium ion and an oxyranylmethyl radical ( k PGE - fragm = 1.16 × 10 7 s - 1 ) . The latter immediately rearranges to an allyloxyl radical by ring opening. It is then conceived that the action of onium salts, as ra…
Synthesis and radical coupling of pyridine-bridged π-extended tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-type donors and push–pull analogues
2007
A new family of pi-extended TTF analogues (3a-c) and D-pi-A chromophores (5a-c), in which the electroactive units (1,3-dithiole rings and 2,2-dicyanovinyl groups) are connected through a pyridine bridge with a meta substitution pattern, is reported. The redox behavior of these compounds has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and theoretical calculations performed at the B3P86/6-31G** level. Unlike many pi-extended TTF derivatives, the 1,3-dithiole rings in compounds 3a-c do not behave independently and two oxidation processes are observed with an anodic separation ranging from 50 to 150 mV. Calculations show that electrons are equally extracted from both dithiole rings. A biradical str…
