Dihypoiodites stabilised by 4-ethylpyridine through O–I–N halogen bonds
2021
Four bis(O–I–N) compounds have been synthesised from various dihypoiodites and 4-ethylpyridine. The compounds were characterised in both the solution and solid states by NMR spectroscopy (1H, 15N), X-ray diffraction, and computational calculations. peerReviewed
Utility of Three-Coordinate Silver Complexes Toward the Formation of Iodonium Ions
2021
The work herein describes the synthesis of five three-coordinate silver(I) complexes comprising a bidentate ligand L1, either bpy (2,2′-bipyridyl) or bpyMe2 (4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-dipyridyl), and a monodentate ligand L2, either mtz (1-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole), 4-Etpy (4-ethylpyridine), or 4-DMAP (N,N-dimethylpyridin-4-amine). Upon reaction of the three-coordinate silver(I) complexes with 0.5 equiv of I2, the reactions quantitatively produce a 1:1 pair of complexes of a four-coordinate silver(I) complex [Ag(L1)2]PF6 and a two-coordinate iodonium complex [I(L2)2]PF6. The combination of [Ag(bpyMe2)2]PF6 and [I(4-DMAP)2]PF6 gave rise to an I+···Ag+ interaction where the I+ acts as a nucleophile, …
De novo Synthesis of Chemical Defenses in an Aposematic Moth
2018
Many animals protect themselves from predation with chemicals, both self-made or sequestered from their diet. The potential drivers of the diversity of these chemicals have been long studied, but our knowledge of these chemicals and their acquisition mode is heavily based on specialist herbivores that sequester their defenses. The wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis, Linnaeus, 1758) is a well-studied aposematic species, but the nature of its chemical defenses has not been fully described . Here, we report the presence of two methoxypyrazines, 2-sec-butyl-3-methoxypyrazine and 2-isobutyl-3-methoxypyrazine, in the moths’ defensive secretions. By raising larvae on an artificial diet, we confir…
Effect of Mg2+ ions on competitive metal ions adsorption/desorption on magnesium ferrite : mechanism, reusability and stability studies
2021
The adsorption behavior of magnesium ferrite in single- and multicomponent metal ions solutions in the presence of Mg2+ ions were studied. A dramatic decrease in the adsorption capacity of magnesium ferrite towards Mn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ ions for comparison study of single- and multicomponent solutions was established. The affinity of the sorbent in accordance with the maximum sorption capacities increases in the following order Cu2+ > Co2+ > Ni2+ > Mn2+. High efficiency of magnesium ferrite regeneration (~100%) with aqueous solutions of magnesium chloride in the concentration range of 0.001-0.1 M was shown. The low degree of toxic metal ions desorption combined with XRD, IR spectroscopy, and…
Iodine(i) complexes incorporating sterically bulky 2-substituted pyridines
2022
The silver(I) and iodine(I) complexes of the 2-substituted pyridines 2-(diphenylmethyl)pyridine (1) and 2-(1,1-diphenylethyl)pyridine (2), along with their potential protonated side products, were synthesised to investigate the steric limitations of iodine(I) complex formation. The complexes were characterised by 1H and 1H–15N HMBC NMR, X-ray crystallography, and DFT calculations. The solid-state structures for the silver(I) and iodine(I) complexes were extensively compared to the literature and analysed by DFT to examine the influence of the sterically bulky pyridines and their anions. peerReviewed
Do 2-coordinate iodine(I) and silver(I) complexes form Nucleophilic Iodonium Interactions (NIIs) in solution?
2022
The interaction of a [bis(pyridine)iodine(I)]+ cation with a [bis(pyridine)silver(I)]+ cation, in which an iodonium ion acts as nucleophile by transferring electron density to the silver(I) cation, is reinvestigated herein. No measurable interaction is observed between the cationic species in solution by NMR; DFT reveals that if there is an attractive interaction between this complexes in solution, it is dominantly the π-π interaction of pyridines peerReviewed
Iron(III) chloride as mild catalyst for the dearomatizing cyclization of N-acylindoles
2020
A catalytic approach for the preparation of indolines by dearomatizing cyclization is presented. FeCl3 acts as a catalyst to afford tetracyclic 5a,6-dihydro-12H-indolo[2,1-b][1,3]benzoxazin-12-ones in good yields. The cyclization also proceeds with tosylamides forming C-N bonds in 53 % yield. peerReviewed
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…
A Monomeric Aluminum Imide (Iminoalane) with Al–N Triple-Bonding: Bonding Analysis and Dispersion Energy Stabilization
2021
The reaction of :AlAriPr8 (AriPr8 = C6H-2,6-(C6H2-2,4,6-iPr3)2-3,5-iPr2) with ArMe6N3 (ArMe6 = C6H3-2,6-(C6H2-2,4,6-Me3)2) in hexanes at ambient temperature gave the aluminum imide AriPr8AlNArMe6 (1). Its crystal structure displayed short Al–N distances of 1.625(4) and 1.628(3) Å with linear (C–Al–N–C = 180°) or almost linear (C–Al–N = 172.4(2)°; Al–N–C = 172.5(3)°) geometries. DFT calculations confirm linear geometry with an Al–N distance of 1.635 Å. According to energy decomposition analysis, the Al–N bond has three orbital components totaling −1350 kJ mol–1 and instantaneous interaction energy of −551 kJ mol–1 with respect to :AlAriPr8 and ArMe6N̈:. Dispersion accounts for −89 kJ mol–1, …
Bis[cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene] isomers : Stable trans-bis(CAAC) versus facile olefin formation for cis-bis(CAAC)
2022
Isomeric bis(aldiminium) salts with a 1,4-cyclohexylene framework were synthesized. The first isolable bis(CAAC) was prepared from the trans-stereoisomer and its ditopic ligand competency was proven by conversion to iridium(I) and rhodium(I) complexes. Upon deprotonation, the cis-isomer yielded an electron rich olefin via a classic, proton-catalyzed pathway. The C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bond formation from the desired cis-bis(CAAC) was shown to be thermodynamically very favorable and to involve a small activation barrier. Compounds that can be described as insertion products of the cis-bis(CAAC) into the E–H bonds of NH3, CH3CN and H2O were also identified. peerReviewed
