Strong N−X···O−N Halogen Bonds: Comprehensive Study on N‐Halosaccharin Pyridine N‐oxide Complexes
2019
A detailed study of the strong N−X⋯−O−N+ (X = I, Br) halogen bonding interactions in solution and in the solid‐state reports 2×27 donor×acceptor complexes of N‐halosaccharins and pyridine N‐oxides (PyNO). Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations were used to investigate the X···O halogen bond (XB) interaction energies in 54 complexes. The XB interaction energies were found to vary from –47.5 to –120.3 kJ mol–1, with the strongest N−I⋯−O−N+ XBs approaching those of 3‐center‐4‐electron [N–I–N]+ halogen‐bonded systems (∼160 kJ mol–1). Using a subset of 32 complexes, stabilized only through N−X···−O−N+ XB interactions, a simplified, computationally fast, electrostatic model to predict the X…
Reversible O-H bond activation by an intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair
2019
The interactions of the O–H bonds in alcohols, water and phenol with dimethylxanthene-derived frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) have been probed. Within the constraints of this backbone framework, the preference for adduct formation or O–H bond cleavage to give the corresponding zwitterion is largely determined by pKa considerations. In the case of the PPh2/B(C6F5)2 system and p-tBuC6H4OH, an equilibrium is established between the two isomeric forms which allows the thermodynamic parameters associated with zwitterion formation via O–H bond cleavage to be probed. peerReviewed
5-Imino-3,4-diphenyl-1H-pyrrol-2-one
2014
The title compound, C16H12N2O, exists in the crystalline state as the 5-imino-3,4-diphenyl-1H-pyrrol-2-one tautomer. The dihedral angles between the pyrrole and phenyl rings are 35.3 (2) and 55.3 (2)°. In the crystal, inversion dimers linked by pairs of N—H...N hydrogen bonds generate a graph-set motif ofR22(8)viaN—H...N hydrogen bonds.
2,3-Diphenylmaleimide 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one monosolvate
2014
In the title compound, C16H11NO2·C5H9NO, the dihedral angles between the maleimide and phenyl rings are 34.7 (2) and 64.8 (2)°. In the crystal, the 2,3-diphenylmaleimide and 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one molecules form centrosymmetrical dimersviapairs of strong N—H...O hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions between the two neighboring maleimide rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.495 (2) Å]. The dimers are further linked by weak C—H...O and C—H...π hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional framework.
Structural analysis of two foldamer-type oligoamides – the effect of hydrogen bonding on solvate formation, crystal structures and molecular conforma…
2012
Author's Final draft The crystal structures and molecular conformations of two foldamer-type oligoamides were analyzed. One polymorphic form and seven solvates were found for N¹,N³-bis(2-benzamidophenyl)benzene-1,3-dicarboxamide (the benzene variant), and two polymorphic forms and six solvates for N²,N⁶-bis(2-benzamidophenyl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (the pyridine variant). Three crystal structures of the benzene variant and seven structures of the pyridine variant were solved using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structures showed that the different modes of intramolecular hydrogen bonding strongly affect the conformation and folding of the molecules, which is most evidently…
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding in isostructural pincer complexes [OH-(t-BuPOCOPt-Bu)MCl] (M = Pd and Pt)
2019
In the crystal structure of the isostructural title compounds, namely {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridopalladium(II), [Pd(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 1, and {2,6-bis[(di-tert-butylphosphanyl)oxy]-4-hydroxyphenyl}chloridoplatinum(II), [Pt(C22H39O3P2)Cl], 2, the metal centres are coordinated in a distorted square-planar fashion by the POCOP pincer fragment and the chloride ligand. Both complexes form strong hydrogen-bonded chain structures through an interaction of the OH group in the 4-position of the aromatic POCOP backbone with the halide ligand. © 2019.
New Insights into the complexation of lead(II) by 1,4,7,10-tetrakis(carbamoylmethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (DOTAM): structural, thermodynami…
2007
The lead(II) coordination properties of the tetrapodal ligand DOTAM [1,4,7,10-tetrakis(carbamoylmethyl)-1,4,7,10-tetraaza-cyclododecane] have been investigated both in the solid state and in solution in order to ascertain the stereoactivity of the lone pair and to rationalize the structural effects of a cyclen-based scaffold on the metal uptake kinetics. The crystal structure of the free base shows that the pendant acetamide groups are not equivalent: two are folded over the macrocycle and maintained by an intramolecular hydrogen bond involving an amide hydrogen atom and a neighboring tertiary amine of the cyclen ring, while the other two are extended and point away from the macrocyclic cav…
Palladium-Catalyzed Direct Arylation of Heteroaromatics with Activated Aryl Chlorides Using a Sterically Relieved Ferrocenyl-Diphosphane
2012
International audience; The palladium-catalyzed direct arylations at C3 or C4 positions of heteroaromatics are known to be more challenging than at C2 or C5 positions. Aryl chlorides are also challenging substrates for direct arylation of heteroaromatics. We observed that in the presence of a palladium-catalyst combining only 0.5 mol % of Pd(OAc)2 with the sterically relieved new ferrocenyl diphosphane Sylphos, the direct arylation at C3 or C4 of oxazoles, a benzofuran, an indole, and a pyrazole was found to proceed in moderate to high yields using a variety of electron deficient aryl chlorides. Turnover numbers up to 176 have been obtained with this catalyst. Assessment of the electron-don…
Probing the Extremes of Covalency in M-Al bonds: Lithium and Zinc Aluminyl Compounds.
2022
Synthetic routes to lithium, magnesium, and zinc aluminyl complexes are reported, allowing for the first structural characterization of an unsupported lithium-aluminium bond. Crystallographic and quantum-chemical studies are consistent with the presence of a highly polar Li-Al interaction, characterized by a low bond order and relatively little charge transfer from Al to Li. Comparison with magnesium and zinc aluminyl systems reveals changes to both the M-Al bond and the (NON)Al fragment (where NON=4,5-bis(2,6-diisopropylanilido)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethylxanthene), consistent with a more covalent character, with the latter complex being shown to react with CO<sub>2</sub> vi…
The Role of Orbital Symmetries in Enforcing Ferromagnetic Ground State in Mixed Radical Dimers
2018
One of the first steps in designing ferromagnetic (FM) molecular materials of p-block radicals is the suppression of covalent radical-radical interactions that stabilize a diamagnetic ground state. In this contribution, we demonstrate that FM coupling between p-block radicals can be achieved by constructing mixed dimers from different radicals with differing symmetries of their singly occupied molecular orbitals. The applicability of this approach is demonstrated by studying magnetic interactions in organic radical dimers built from different derivatives of the well-known phenalenyl radical. The calculated enthalpies of dimerization for different homo- and heterodimers show that the formati…
