Synthesis of a Counteranion-Stabilized Bis(silylium) Ion.

ABSTRACT: The preparation of a molecule with two alkyl-tethered silylium-ion sites from the corresponding bis(hydrosilanes) by two-fold hydride abstraction is reported. The length of the conformationally flexible alkyl bridge is crucial as otherwise the hydride abstraction stops at the stage of a cyclic bissilylated hydronium ion. With an ethylene tether, the open form of the hydronium-ion intermediate is energetically accessible and engages in another hydride abstraction. The resulting bis(silylium) ion has been NMR spectroscopically and structurally characterized. Related systems based on rigid naphthalen-n,m-diyl platforms can only be converted into the dications when the positively charged silylium-ion units are remote from each other (1,8 versus 1,5 and 2,6).

Competition for Hydride Between Silicon and Boron: Synthesis and Characterization of a Hydroborane-Stabilized Silylium Ion.

Project description:Potent main-group Lewis acids are capable of activating element-hydrogen bonds. To probe the rivalry for hydride between silylium- and borenium-ion centers, a neutral precursor with the hydrosilane and hydroborane units in close proximity on a naphthalene-1,8-diyl platform was designed. Abstraction of one hydride leads to a hydroborane-stabilized silylium ion rather than a hydrosilane-coordinated borenium ion paired with [B(C6 F5 )4 ]- or [HCB11 Cl11 ]- as counteranions. Characterization by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction supported by DFT calculations reveals a cationic, unsymmetrical open three-center, two-electron (3c2e) Si-H-B linkage.

Thermodynamic <i>versus</i> kinetic control in substituent redistribution reactions of silylium ions steered by the counteranion.

Project description:An in-depth experimental and theoretical study of the substituent exchange reaction of silylium ions is presented. Apart from the substitution pattern at the silicon atom, the selectivity of this process is predominantly influenced by the counteranion, which is introduced with the trityl salt in the silylium ion generation. In contrast to Müller's protocol for the synthesis of triarylsilylium ions under kinetic control, the use of Reed's carborane anions leads to contact ion pairs, allowing selective formation of trialkylsilylium ions under thermodynamic control. DFT calculations finally revealed an unexpected mechanism for the rate-determining alkyl exchange step, which is initiated by an unusual 1,2-silyl migration in the intermediate ipso-disilylated arenium ion. The resulting ortho-disilylated arenium ion can then undergo an alkyl transfer via a low-barrier five-centered transition state.

Facile Access to Stable Silylium Ions Stabilized by N-Heterocyclic Imines.

Project description:Novel silylium ions with N-heterocyclic imines were successfully synthesized. The reaction of trimethylsilyl imidazolin-2-imine Me?SiNIPr (NIPr = bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-imino) with B(C?F?)? leads to dimeric imino-substituted silylium ions through a methyl group abstraction on the silicon atom. Meanwhile, the intermolecular imino-coordinated silylium ion is formed by using the less sterically crowded imine Me?SiNItBu (NItBu = bis(tert-butyl)-imidazolin-2-imino). Furthermore, the treatment of dimethylchlorosilane Me?(Cl)SiNIPr with AgOTf affords the contact ion pair Me?(OTf)SiNIPr by substitution of the chloride. A novel complex with the formula [Me?(DMAP)SiNIPr][OTf] was prepared by coordination with 4-dimethylamino-pyridine (DMAP). In the solid state, the DMAP adduct [Me?(DMAP)SiNIPr][OTf] contains a distinct [Me?(DMAP)SiNIPr]? moiety.

Bis(silylene)-Stabilized Monovalent Nitrogen Complexes.

Project description:The first series of bis(silylene)-stabilized nitrogen(I) compounds is described. Starting from the 1,2-bis(N-heterocyclic silylenyl) 1,2-dicarba-closo-dedocaborane(12) scaffold 1, [1,2-(LSi)2 C2 B10 H10 ; L=PhC(Nt Bu)2 ], reaction with adamantyl azide (AdN3 ) affords the terminal N-?2 -bridged zwitterionic carborane-1,2-bis(silylium) AdN3 adduct 2 with an open-cage dianionic nido-C2 B10 cluster core. Remarkably, upon one-electron reduction of 2 with C8 K and liberation of N2 and adamantane, the two silylene subunits are regenerated to furnish the isolable bis(silylene)-stabilized NI complex as an anion of 3 with the nido-C2 B10 cluster cage. On the other hand, one-electron oxidation of 2 with silver(I) yields the monocationic bis(silylene) NI complex 4 with the closo-C2 B10 cluster core. Moreover, the corresponding neutral NI radical complex 5 results from single-electron transfer from 3 to 4.

Nickel(II) complexes stabilized by bis[N-(6-pivalamido-2-pyridylmethyl)]benzylamine: Synthesis and characterization of complexes stabilized by a hydrogen bonding network.

Project description:Hydrogen bonds in metalloproteins are key in directing reactivity yet to be achieved in synthetic systems. We have been developing a synthetic system that uses hydrogen-bonding interactions to modulate the secondary coordination around a transition metal ion. This was accomplished with the ligand bis[N-(6-pivalamido-2-pyridylmethyl)]benzylamine (H(2)pmb), which contains two carboxyamido units appended from pyridine rings. Several nickel complexes were prepared and structurally characterized. In particular, we found that the appended carboxyamido groups either provide intramolecular H-bond donors or can be converted to bind directly to a metal center. We established that the complex Ni(II)H(2)pmb(Cl)(2) can be sequentially deprotonated with potassium tert-butoxide, causing coordination of the carboxyamido oxygen atoms and concomitant loss of the chloro ligands. The chloro ligands were also removed with silver(I) salts-in the presence of acetate ions, the complex Ni(II)H(2)pmb(?(2)-OAc)(?(1)-OAc) was isolated, in which an intramolecular H-bonding network occurs between the H(2)pmb ligand and the coordinate acetato ligands.

Donor-Stabilized Monocarba-Bridged Bis(cyclopentadienyl)alanes.

Project description:Five monocarba-bridged bis(cyclopentadienyl)aluminum halide NHC and thione complexes and one monocarba-bridged bis(cyclopentadienyl)phosphanylalane NHC complex are reported. The former were synthesized by transmetalation of a C[1]magnesocenophane with the corresponding aluminum(III) chloride and aluminum(III) bromide donor adducts. The phosphanylalane complex was obtained by a subsequent functionalization of the corresponding bromoalane with lithium diphenylphosphide. All complexes were characterized in solution by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and in the solid state by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Bonding energies of the NHC and thione ligands to the aluminum centres were estimated by DFT calculations.

Nitrenium ion-mediated alkene bis-cyclofunctionalization: total synthesis of (-)-swainsonine.

Project description:The total synthesis of (-)-swainsonine from 2,3-O-isopropylidene-D-erythrose in 12 steps and an overall yield of 28% is reported. The pivotal transformation in our route to this indolizidine alkaloid is the formation of the pyrrolidine ring and C-8a/8 stereodiad through the diastereoselective, bis-cyclofunctionalization of an ?,?-unsaturated O-alkyl hydroxamate. This transformation is believed to proceed via the intramolecular capture of an N-acyl-N-alkoxyaziridinium ion generated by the diastereoselective addition of a singlet acylnitrenium ion to the pendant alkene.

A counteranion triggered arylation strategy using diaryliodonium fluorides.

Project description:A mild and transition metal-free counteranion triggered arylation strategy has been developed using diaryliodonium fluorides. The fluoride counteranion within the hypervalent iodonium species displays unusual reactivity that activates a phenolic O-H bond leading to electrophilic O-arylation. A wide range of phenols and diaryliodonium salts are compatible with this transformation under remarkably mild conditions. Furthermore, we pre-empt the wider implications of this strategy by demonstrating the compatibility of the arylation tactic with latent carbon nucleophiles.

Intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation with a silylium-ion-activated cyclopropyl group: formation of tricyclic ring systems from benzyl-substituted vinylcyclopropanes and hydrosilanes.

Project description:A trityl-cation-initiated annulation of benzyl-substituted vinylcyclopropanes (VCPs) with hydrosilanes is reported. Two Si-C(sp3) bonds and one C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond are formed in this process where an intramolecular 6-endo-tet Friedel-Crafts alkylation of a silylium-ion-activated cyclopropane ring is the rate-determining key step. The reaction mechanism is proposed based on computations and is in agreement with experimental observations. The new reaction leads to an unprecedented silicon-containing 6/6/5-fused ring system. A phenethyl-substituted VCP derivative yields another unknown tricycle having 6/6/6 ring fusion by reacting in a related but different way involving a 6-exo-tet ring closure.
