Exploring the potential of diarylacetylenediols as hydrogen bonding catalysts.

ABSTRACT: In the course of a search for new classes of hydrogen bonding catalysts, we have examined diarylacetylenediols as potential catalysts for the Diels-Alder reaction. General and efficient methods have been developed for the preparation of these diols. Their structures were systematically modified, and increased activity was observed for those possessing an electron-withdrawing group on the aryl groups. The electron-deficient diarylacetylenediol catalysts, while more active, undergo spontaneous cyclization to the corresponding benzo[b]furans. A mechanism is postulated to explain this facile transformation. Computational studies performed on 2-ethynylphenol help to explain the effect of the alkyne on the conformation and hydrogen bond donating ability of the adjacent OH group. Finally, the crystal structure of one of the diols is reported, and it displays an intricate network of intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

Exploring Orthogonality between Halogen and Hydrogen Bonding Involving Benzene.

Project description:The concept of orthogonality between halogen and hydrogen bonding, brought out by Ho and coworkers some years ago, has become a widely accepted idea within the chemists' community. While the original work was based on a common carbonyl oxygen as acceptor for both interactions, we explore here, by means of M06-2X, M11, ωB97X, and ωB97XD/aug-cc-PVTZ DFT calculations, the interdependence of halogen and hydrogen bonding with a shared π-electron system of benzene. The donor groups (specifically NCBr and H2O) were placed on either or the same side of the ring, according to a double T-shaped or a perpendicular geometry, respectively. The results demonstrate that the two interactions with benzene are not strictly independent on each other, therefore outlining that the orthogonality between halogen and hydrogen bonding, intended as energetical independence between the two interactions, should be carefully evaluated according to the specific acceptor group.

Rapid quantification of the activating effects of hydrogen-bonding catalysts with a colorimetric sensor.

Project description:A sensor has been developed to quickly and simply assess the relative reactivity of different hydrogen-bonding catalysts. Specifically, blue-shifts seen upon treatment of H-bonding catalysts with the colorimetric compound 7-methyl-2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3(7H)-one correlate well to the K(eq) of binding to the sensor. The blue-shifts also show a high degree of correlation with relative rates in Diels-Alder reactions of methyl vinyl ketone and cyclopentadiene employing the H-bonding catalysts. The relevance of the sensor blue-shifts to the LUMO-lowering abilities of the H-bonding catalysts is discussed.

New hydrogen-bonding organocatalysts: Chiral cyclophosphazanes and phosphorus amides as catalysts for asymmetric Michael additions.

Project description:Ten novel hydrogen-bonding catalysts based on open-chain P(V)-amides of BINOL and chinchona alkaloids as well as three catalysts based on rigid cis-P(V)-cyclodiphosphazane amides of N (1),N (1)-dimethylcyclohexane-1,2-diamine have been developed. Employed in the asymmetric Michael addition of 2-hydroxynaphthoquinone to β-nitrostyrene, the open-chain 9-epi-aminochinchona-based phosphorus amides show a high catalytic activity with almost quantitative yields of up to 98% and enantiomeric excesses of up to 51%. The cyclodiphosphazane catalysts show the same high activity and give improved enantiomeric excesses of up to 75%, thus representing the first successful application of a cyclodiphosphazane in enantioselective organocatalysis. DFT computations reveal high hydrogen-bonding strengths of cyclodiphosphazane P(V)-amides compared to urea-based catalysts. Experimental results and computations on the enantiodetermining step with cis-cyclodiphosphazane 14a suggest a strong bidentate H-bond activation of the nitrostyrene substrate by the catalyst.

Hydrogen-bonding 2D metal-organic solids as highly robust and efficient heterogeneous green catalysts for Biginelli reaction.

Project description:Two new Zn(II) and Cd(II) MOFs have been synthesized. These MOFs have been applied as heterogeneous catalysts for the green synthesis of a variety of dihydropyrimidinone derivatives through the Biginelli reaction and the desired products were obtained in high yields with short reaction time under mild solvent- free conditions. Moreover, the MOF catalysts may be readily recovered after the reaction and reused for many cycles.

Hydrogen bonding sewing interface.

Project description:The strong force that originates from breaking covalent bonds can be easily quantified through various testing platforms, while weak interfacial sliding resistance (ISR), originating from hydrogen bonding or van der Waals (vdW) forces, is very challenging to measure. Facilitated by an in-house nanomechanical testing system, we are able to precisely quantify and clearly distinguish the interfacial interactions between individual carbon fibers and several substrates governed by either hydrogen bonding or vdW forces. The specific ISR of the interface dominated by vdW forces is 3.55 ± 0.50 μN mm-1 and it surprisingly increases to 157.86 ± 44.18 μN mm-1 if the interface is bridged by hydrogen bonding. The ad hoc studies demonstrate that hydrogen bonding rather than vdW forces has great potential in sewing the interface if both surfaces are supportive of the formation of hydrogen bonds. The findings will enlighten the engineering of interfacial interactions and further mediate the entire mechanical performance of structures.

Halogen Bonding versus Hydrogen Bonding: A Molecular Orbital Perspective.

Project description:We have carried out extensive computational analyses of the structure and bonding mechanism in trihalides DX⋅⋅⋅A(-) and the analogous hydrogen-bonded complexes DH⋅⋅⋅A(-) (D, X, A=F, Cl, Br, I) using relativistic density functional theory (DFT) at zeroth-order regular approximation ZORA-BP86/TZ2P. One purpose was to obtain a set of consistent data from which reliable trends in structure and stability can be inferred over a large range of systems. The main objective was to achieve a detailed understanding of the nature of halogen bonds, how they resemble, and also how they differ from, the better understood hydrogen bonds. Thus, we present an accurate physical model of the halogen bond based on quantitative Kohn-Sham molecular orbital (MO) theory, energy decomposition analyses (EDA) and Voronoi deformation density (VDD) analyses of the charge distribution. It appears that the halogen bond in DX⋅⋅⋅A(-) arises not only from classical electrostatic attraction but also receives substantial stabilization from HOMO-LUMO interactions between the lone pair of A(-) and the σ* orbital of D-X.

pH-controlled hydrogen-bonding.

Project description:The pH-dependence of the degree of hydrogen-bonding between a base and its conjugate acid is considered. When only a small proportion of the total base is complexed, the amount complexed is proportional to (1+coshp)(-1) where p=2.303 (pK(a)-pH), pK(a) being the dissociation constant of the conjugate acid. This represents sharp pH-dependence. As the proportion complexed increases, the curve broadens, eventually becoming flat-topped, with more than half the base complexed over the range of pH values pK(a)+/-logKC, approximately. (K is the complex association constant and C is the formal base concentration, including all forms.) There are similarities to the extent of mono-protonation of a dibasic acid.

Hydrogen Bonding in Amorphous Indomethacin.

Project description:Amorphous Indomethacin has enhanced bioavailability over its crystalline forms, yet amorphous forms can still possess a wide variety of structures. Here, Empirical Potential Structure Refinement (EPSR) has been used to provide accurate molecular models on the structure of five different amorphous Indomethacin samples, that are consistent with their high-energy X-ray diffraction patterns. It is found that the majority of molecules in amorphous Indomethacin are non-bonded or bonded to one neighboring molecule via a single hydrogen bond, in contrast to the doubly bonded dimers found in the crystalline state. The EPSR models further indicate a substantial variation in hydrogen bonding between different amorphous forms, leading to a diversity of chain structures not found in any known crystal structures. The majority of hydrogen bonds are associated with the carboxylic acid group, although a significant number of amide hydrogen bonding interactions are also found in the models. Evidence of some dipole-dipole interactions are also observed in the more structurally ordered models. The results are consistent with a distribution of Z-isomer intramolecular type conformations in the more disordered structures, that distort when stronger intermolecular hydrogen bonding occurs. The findings are supported by 1H and 2H NMR studies of the hydrogen bond dynamics in amorphous Indomethacin.

Hydrogen bonding <i>vs.</i> halogen bonding: the solvent decides.

Project description:Control of intermolecular interactions is integral to harnessing self-assembly in nature. Here we demonstrate that control of the competition between hydrogen bonds and halogen bonds, the two most highly studied directional intermolecular interactions, can be exerted by choice of solvent (polarity) to direct the self-assembly of co-crystals. Competitive co-crystal formation has been investigated for three pairs of hydrogen bond and halogen bond donors, which can compete for a common acceptor group. These competitions have been examined in seven different solvents. Product formation has been determined and phase purity has been examined by analysis of powder X-ray diffraction patterns. Formation of hydrogen-bonded co-crystals is favoured from less polar solvents and halogen-bonded co-crystals from more polar solvents. The solvent polarity at which the crystal formation switches from hydrogen-bond to halogen-bond dominance depends on the relative strengths of the interactions, but is not a function of the solution-phase interactions alone. The results clearly establish that an appreciation of solvent effects is critical to obtain control of the intermolecular interactions.
