Preparation of Diversely Substituted Triarylmethyl Radicals by the Quenching of Tris(2,3,5,6-tetrathiaaryl)methyl Cations with C-, N-, P-, and S-Nucleophiles.

ABSTRACT: C-, N-, P-, and S-nucleophiles reacted with symmetrical tris(2,3,5,6-tetrathiaaryl)methyl cations, generated from the corresponding triarylmethanols by strong acids, to give a variety of asymmetrical monosubstituted persistent triaryl-methyl (TAM) radicals as the major products. The only byproducts were symmetrical TAMs.

Generation of Trityl Radicals by Nucleophilic Quenching of Tris(2,3,5,6-tetrathiaaryl)methyl Cations and Practical and Convenient Large-Scale Synthesis of Persistent Tris(4-carboxy-2,3,5,6-tetrathiaaryl)methyl Radical.

Project description:Tris(2,3,5,6-tetrathiaaryl)methyl cations, which were generated from the corresponding triarylmethanols in the presence of strong acids, underwent reaction with nucleophiles to give trityl radicals, as the product of a one-electron reduction of the carbocation. Depending on the nature of the nucleophile, the only byproducts were either diamagnetic quinone methides or asymmetrical monosubstituted trityl radicals. Herein, we report a protocol for the large-scale synthesis of the Finland trityl, which has the advantage of high overall yield and reproducibility.

A Guide to Tris(4-Substituted)-triphenylmethyl Radicals.

Project description:Triphenylmethyl (trityl, Ph3C•) radicals have been considered the prototypical carbon-centered radical since their discovery in 1900. Tris(4-substituted)-trityls [(4-R-Ph)3C•] have since been used in many ways due to their stability, persistence, and spectroscopic activity. Despite their widespread use, existing synthetic routes toward tris(4-substituted)-trityl radicals are not reproducible and often lead to impure materials. We report here robust syntheses of six electronically varied (4-RPh)3C•, where R = NMe2, OCH3, tBu, Ph, Cl, and CF3. The characterization reported for the radicals and related compounds includes five X-ray crystal structures, electrochemical potentials, and optical spectra. Each radical is best accessed using a stepwise approach from the trityl halide, (RPh)3CCl or (RPh)3CBr, by controllably removing the halide with subsequent 1e- reduction of the trityl cation, (RPh)3C+. These syntheses afford consistently crystalline trityl radicals of high purity for further studies.

Luminescent Mono-, Di-, and Triradicals: Bridging Polychlorinated Triarylmethyl Radicals by Triarylamines and Triarylboranes.

Project description:Up to three polychlorinated pyridyldiphenylmethyl radicals bridged by a triphenylamine carrying electron withdrawing (CN), neutral (Me), or donating (OMe) groups were synthesized and analogous radicals bridged by tris(2,6-dimethylphenyl)borane were prepared for comparison. All compounds were as stable as common closed-shell organic compounds and showed significant fluorescence upon excitation. Electronic, magnetic, absorption, and emission properties were examined in detail, and experimental results were interpreted using DFT calculations. Oxidation potentials, absorption and emission energies could be tuned depending on the electron density of the bridges. The triphenylamine bridges mediated intramolecular weak antiferromagnetic interactions between the radical spins, and the energy difference between the high spin and low spin states was determined by temperature dependent ESR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The fluorescent properties of all radicals were examined in detail and revealed no difference for high and low spin states which facilitates application of these dyes in two-photon absorption spectroscopy and OLED devices.

A convenient route to diversely substituted icosahedral closomer nanoscaffolds.

Project description:The design and synthesis of icosahedral polyhedral borane closomer motifs based upon carbonate and carbamate anchoring groups for biomedical applications are described. Dodecacarbamate closomers containing easily accessible groups of interest at their linker termini were synthesized via activation of the B-OH vertices as aryl carbonates and their subsequent reaction with primary amines. Novel dodecacarbonate closomers were successfully synthesized for the first time by reacting [closo-B(12)(OH)(12)](2-) with an excess of respective aryl chloroformates, utilizing relatively short reaction times, mild conditions and simple purification strategies, all of which had previously presented difficulties in closomer chemistry. This methodology for the 12-fold degenerate synthesis of carbonate and carbamate closomers will greatly facilitate further exploration of closomers as monodisperse nanomolecular delivery platforms.

Room-Temperature Electron Spin Relaxation of Triarylmethyl Radicals at the X- and Q-Bands.

Project description:Triarylmethyl radicals (trityls, TAMs) represent a relatively new class of spin labels. The long relaxation of trityls at room temperature in liquid solutions makes them a promising alternative for traditional nitroxides. In this work we have synthesized a series of TAMs including perdeuterated Finland trityl (D36 form), mono-, di-, and triester derivatives of Finland-D36 trityl, the deuterated form of OX63, the dodeca-n-butyl homologue of Finland trityl, and triamide derivatives of Finland trityl with primary and secondary amines attached. We have studied room-temperature relaxation properties of these TAMs in liquids using pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) at two microwave frequency bands. We have found the clear dependence of phase memory time (Tm ∼ T2) on the magnetic field: room-temperature Tm values are ∼1.5-2.5 times smaller at the Q-band (34 GHz, 1.2 T) than at the X-band (9 GHz, 0.3 T). This trend is ascribed to the contribution from g-anisotropy that is negligible at lower magnetic fields but comes into play at the Q-band. In agreement with this, the difference between T1 and Tm becomes more pronounced at the Q-band than at the X-band due to increased contributions from incomplete motional averaging of g-anisotropy. Linear dependence of (1/Tm - 1/T1) on viscosity implies that g-anisotropy is modulated by rotational motion of the trityl radical. On the basis of the analysis of previous data and results of the present work, we conclude that, in the general situation where the spin label is at least partly mobile, the X-band is most suitable for application of trityls for room-temperature pulsed EPR distance measurements.

Catalytic and Photochemical Strategies to Stabilized Radicals Based on Anomeric Nucleophiles.

Project description:Carbohydrates, one of the three primary macromolecules of living organisms, play significant roles in various biological processes such as intercellular communication, cell recognition, and immune activity. While the majority of established methods for the installation of carbohydrates through the anomeric carbon rely on nucleophilic displacement, anomeric radicals represent an attractive alternative because of their functional group compatibility and high anomeric selectivities. Herein, we demonstrate that anomeric nucleophiles such as C1 stannanes can be converted into anomeric radicals by merging Cu(I) catalysis with blue light irradiation to achieve highly stereoselective C(sp3)-S cross-coupling reactions. Mechanistic studies and DFT calculations revealed that the C-S bond-forming step occurs via the transfer of the anomeric radical directly to a sulfur electrophile bound to Cu(II) species. This pathway complements a radical chain observed for photochemical metal-free conditions where a disulfide initiator can be activated by a Lewis base additive. Both strategies utilize anomeric nucleophiles as efficient radical donors and achieve a switch from an ionic to a radical pathway. Taken together, the stability of glycosyl nucleophiles, a broad substrate scope, and high anomeric selectivities observed for the thermal and photochemical protocols make this novel C-S cross coupling a practical tool for late-stage glycodiversification of bioactive natural products and drug candidates.

Ionic liquid cations as methylation agent for extremely weak chalcogenido metalate nucleophiles.

Project description:Selective in situ methylation of terminal chalcogenide ligands of molecular chalcogenido metalate anions in ionothermal reactions with alkylimidazolium-based ionic liquids yields a series of organo-functionalized chalcogenido metalate compounds. We present the syntheses and crystal structures of (C4C1C1Im)4+x [Sn10S16O4(SMe)4][An] x (1a-1f), (dmmpH)6[Mn4Sn4Se13(SeMe)4] (2), and (C n C1Im)6[Hg6Te10(TeMe)2] (3a, 3b). The methylation was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy, and the optical absorption properties of the methylated compounds were determined and compared to purely inorganic analogs.

Interaction of triarylmethyl radicals with DNA termini revealed by orientation-selective W-band double electron-electron resonance spectroscopy.

Project description:Spin labels selectively attached to biomolecules allow high-accuracy nanoscale distance measurements using pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), in many cases providing the only access to the structure of complex biosystems. Triarylmethyl (TAM) radicals have recently emerged as a new class of spin labels expanding the applicability of the method to physiological temperatures. Along with other factors, the accuracy of the obtained distances crucially relies on the understanding of interactions between biomolecules and spin labels. In this work, we consider such crucial interactions and their impact on pulsed EPR distance measurements in TAM-labeled DNAs. Using orientation-selective high-frequency (94 GHz) double electron-electron resonance (DEER) we demonstrate strong specific interactions between DNA termini and TAM labels, leading to a significant restriction of their conformational mobility. An understanding of such interactions guides the way to select optimum TAM-labeling strategies, thus refining nanoscale EPR distance measurements in nucleic acids and their complexes under physiological conditions.

Reactivity of (1-methoxycarbonylpentadienyl)iron(1+) cations with hydride, methyl, and nitrogen nucleophiles.

Project description:The reaction of tricarbonyl and (dicarbonyl)triphenylphosphine (1-methoxycarbonyl-pentadientyl)iron(1+) cations 7 and 8 with methyl lithium, NaBH3CN, or potassium phthalimide affords (pentenediyl)iron complexes 9a-c and 11a-b, while reaction with dimethylcuprate, gave (E,Z-diene)iron complexes 10 and 12. Oxidatively induced-reductive elimination of 9a-c gave vinylcyclopropanecarboxylates 17a-c. The optically active vinylcyclopropane (+)-17a, prepared from (1S)-7, undergoes olefin cross-metathesis with excess (+)-18 to yield (+)-19, a C9-C16 synthon for the antifungal agent ambruticin. Alternatively reaction of 7 with methanesulfonamide or trimethylsilylazide gave (E,E-diene)iron complexes 14d and e. Huisgen [3+2] cyclization of the (azidodienyl)iron complex 14e with alkynes afforded triazoles 25a-e.
