Decisive influence of substitution positions in molecular self-assembly
2014
Molecular self-assembly provides a versatile tool for creating functional molecular structures at surfaces. A rational design of molecular structure formation requires not only an in-depth understanding of the subtle balance between intermolecular and molecule-surface interactions, but might also involve considering chemical changes of the molecules, such as deprotonation. Here, we present a systematic investigation of a comparatively simple class of molecules, namely dihydroxybenzoic acid, which, nevertheless, enables creating a rich variety of structures when deposited onto calcite (10.4) held at room temperature. Based on non-contact atomic force microscopy measurements in ultra-high vac…
Process analysis of a biomass-based quad-generation plant for combined power, heat, cooling, and synthetic natural gas production
2015
Abstract A new concept for upgrading distributed co-generation plants to quad-generation plants, which combine the production of power, heating, cooling and synthetic natural gas (SNG), is designed and analyzed. Five cases with SNG production ranging from 0% to 100% of total energy outputs are designed to simulate different modes of operation. The quad-generation system is simulated using ASPEN PLUS and described by simulating different portions of the system. This paper also describes the new process, which is of particular interest for improving the total first law efficiency. With this system, it is possible to increase the efficiency of natural resource utilization, minimize the environ…
A new mechanism for internal nucleophilic substitution reactions
2018
A new mechanism for the classic internal nucleophilic substitution reactions SNi by means of computational studies in the gas-phase, DCM and acetonitrile is reported. Despite the importance of the SNi mechanism, since the mid-1990s this mechanism has remained unexplored. This study focused mainly on the comparison between the mechanisms postulated to date for the SNi reactions and a new mechanism suggested by us that fits better the experimental observations. This comparative study has been applied to the conversion of ethyl, neopentyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl chlorosulfites into the corresponding alkyl chlorides. This new mechanism occurs through two transition structures. For primary and…
Ligand substitution in cis-bis(acetonitrile)tetrachlororhenium(IV) complex with N,N-dimethylformamide and N,N-dimethylacetamide
2018
Abstract The preparation, crystal structures, and magnetic properties of two novel mononuclear ReIV complexes of formula cis-[ReIVCl4(dmf)2] (1) and cis-[ReIVCl4(dma)2] (2) (dmf = N,N-dimethylformamide and dma = N,N-dimethylacetamide) have been studied. Both ReIV systems were synthesized through ligand substitution reactions from the cis-[ReIVCl4(MeCN)2] precursor, upon heating in the employed solvent. 1 and 2 crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system with space group C2/c. Each ReIV ion exhibits a distorted octahedral environment, being bonded by two oxygen atoms from two dmf (1) and dma (2) molecules and four chloride ions. In the crystal lattice of 1 and 2, the mononuclear ReIV comple…
Synthesis and Topological Determination of Hexakis-Substituted 1,4-Ditritylbenzene and Nonakis-Substituted 1,3,5-Tritritylbenzene Derivatives: Buildi…
2012
Based on trityl moieties, novel organic building blocks have been prepared and structurally investigated. Substituted hexaphenyl-p-xylene (1,4-ditritylbenzene) as well as extended analogues thereof were prepared. Furthermore, a new family based on a 1,3,5-tritritylbenzene motif, connecting three trityl groups through a formal mesitylene unit, was developed. Both families were further converted through six- and nine-fold substitution reactions, respectively, to yield potent molecular building blocks for supramolecular assemblies.
Cu(I) complexes with diethoxyphosphoryl-1,10-phenanthrolines in catalysis of C–C and C–heteroatom bonds formation
2015
Abstract Diethoxyphosphoryl substituted 1,10-phenanthroline copper(I) complexes were tested as catalysts in the Sonogashira-type reaction, α-arylation of phosphoryl-stabilized C–H acids, C–N, C–P bond forming reactions (substitution reactions) and in the reaction of phenylacetylene and bis(pinacolato)diboron (addition reaction). The complexes demonstrate fairly high catalytic activity and in some cases their efficiency is superior to that of the parent Cu(phen)(PPh 3 )Br (phen = phenanthroline).
Use of a bulky phosphine of weak σ-donicity with palladium as a versatile and highly-active catalytic system: allylation and arylation coupling react…
2005
Abstract Carbon–carbon(sp2–sp2 and sp1–sp2) and carbon–nitrogen (nucleophilic allylation) coupling processes are promoted by a catalytic system containing [PdCl(η3–C3H5)]2 with the new ferrocenyl bis(difurylphosphine) 1,1′-bis[di(5-methyl-2-furyl)phosphino]ferrocene, Fc[P(FuMe)2]2. Starting from aryl bromides or allylic acetates this versatile catalyst system may be used at low palladium loadings (10−1–10−4 mol%) in some Heck, Suzuki, Sonogashira and allylic amination reactions to give cross-coupled products in excellent yield. Remarkably high activity is obtained in allylic substitution reactions, providing a significant impetus for the development of bulky phosphines possessing weak σ-don…
N1-Functionalized Indole-Phosphane Oxazoline (IndPHOX) Ligands in Asymmetric Allylic Substitution Reactions
2012
N-Functionalized IndPHOX ligands bearing various groups have been synthesized and the effects of the N1-substituent on the reaction rate, yield, and asymmetric induction in a palladium-catalyzed allylic substitution reaction are reported. The presence of an oxygen atom in the ligands, namely an N-MOM or N-THP group, led to enhancement of the enantioselectivity in the allylic amination reaction. In addition, a ligand with a chiral oxazoline ring at C-1 and a phosphane substituent at C-2 provided high enantioselectivity in good yield in an asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction.

Rate Effects of AOT-Stabilized Microemulsions on Reactions of Ligand Substitution in Cationic Palladium(II) Complexes
1998
Rate data for the substitution reactions of the coordinated ligand X (=2,2‘-bipyridine or 4,4‘-dimethyl-2,2‘-bipyridine) of the palladium(II) complex [Pd(en)X]2+, where en = ethylenediamine, by en or N,N-dimethylethylenediamine in heptane−AOT−water microemulsions have been obtained at 25.0 °C as a function of the AOT concentration at the constant R (=[H2O]/[AOT]) values of 3, 8, and 20 or 30. The overall second-order rate constants are higher in microemulsions than in bulk water and decrease significantly as both the AOT concentration (at constant R) and the molar ratio R (at a given [AOT]) increase. The quantitative analysis of the kinetic data, made by applying the pseudophase model, lead…
