Developments in the dehydrogenative electrochemical synthesis of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-2,2′-biphenol
2021
Abstract The symmetric biphenol 3,3′,5,5′‐tetramethyl‐2,2′‐biphenol is a well‐known ligand building block and is used in transition‐metal catalysis. In the literature, there are several synthetic routes for the preparation of this exceptional molecule. Herein, the focus is on the sustainable electrochemical synthesis of 3,3′,5,5′‐tetramethyl‐2,2′‐biphenol. A brief overview of the developmental history of this inconspicuous molecule, which is of great interest for technical applications, but has many challenges for its synthesis, is provided. The electro‐organic method is a powerful, sustainable, and efficient alternative to conventional synthesis to obtain this symmetric biphenol up to the …
Oligophenyls with Multiple Disulfide Bridges as Higher Homologues of Dibenzo[c,e][1,2]dithiin: Synthesis and Application in Lithium-Ion Batteries.
2020
Abstract Higher homologues of dibenzo[c,e][1,2]dithiin were synthesized from oligophenyls bearing multiple methylthio groups. Single‐crystal X‐ray analyses revealed their nonplanar structures and helical enantiomers of higher meta‐congener 6. Such dibenzo[1,2]dithiin homologues are demonstrated to be applicable to lithium‐ion batteries as cathode, displaying a high capacity of 118 mAh g−1 at a current density of 50 mA g−1.
Annelated pyrrolo-pyrimidines from amino-cyanopyrroles and BMMAs as leads for new DNA-interactive ring systems.
2005
The efficient one-pot synthesis of several new tricyclic systems of type 1 and 2, obtained from the reaction of substituted 2-amino-3-cyanopyrroles and 3-amino-4-cyanopyrroles with BMMAs, is reported. The duration and yields of the reaction strongly depend on the reactivity of the starting pyrrole and on the size of the ring to be formed. Mechanist features of the reaction were investigated and proposed by studying also the reactivity of a 3-aminopyrrole-2,4-dicyano substituted. The method reported represents the first example of the use of BMMA reagents in combination with pyrrole derivatives and allows an easy and versatile entry to a large number of hitherto unknown pyrrolo-pyrimidines f…
