B-B Bond Nucleophilicity in a Tetraaryl ?-Hydridodiborane(4) Anion.

ABSTRACT: The tetraaryl ?-hydridodiborane(4) anion [2H]- possesses nucleophilic B-B and B-H bonds. Treatment of K[2H] with the electrophilic 9-H-9-borafluorene (HBFlu) furnishes the B3 cluster K[3], with a triangular boron core linked through two BHB two-electron, three-center bonds and one electron-precise B-B bond, reminiscent of the prominent [B3 H8 ]- anion. Upon heating or prolonged stirring at room temperature, K[3] rearranges to a slightly more stable isomer K[3?a]. The reaction of M[2H] (M+ =Li+ , K+ ) with MeI or Me3 SiCl leads to equimolar amounts of 9-R-9-borafluorene and HBFlu (R=Me or Me3 Si). Thus, [2H]- behaves as a masked [:BFlu]- nucleophile. The HBFlu by-product was used in?situ to establish a tandem substitution-hydroboration reaction: a 1:1 mixture of M[2H] and allyl bromide gave the 1,3-propylene-linked ditopic 9-borafluorene 5 as sole product. M[2H] also participates in unprecedented [4+1] cycloadditions with dienes to furnish dialkyl diaryl spiroborates, M[R2 BFlu].

Examining the Influence of Anion Nucleophilicity on the Polymerisation Initiation Mechanism of Phenyl Glycidyl Ether.

Project description:The reaction of phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetateand 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate to initiate the polyetherification reaction wasexamined using thermal and spectral analysis techniques. The influence of the nucleophilicity of theanions on the deprotonation of the 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation determined the reactionpathway. The thermal degradation of the ionic liquid liberated the acetate ion and led, subsequently,to the deprotonation of the acidic proton in the imidazole ring. Thus, polymerisation of PGEoccurred via a carbene intermediate. The more nucleophilic thiocyanate anion was not sufficientlybasic to deprotonate the 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation, and thus proceeded through directreaction with the PGE, unless the temperature was elevated and a competing carbene mechanismensued.

Anion-π Catalysis Enabled by the Mechanical Bond.

Project description:We report a series of rotaxane-based anion-π catalysts in which the mechanical bond between a bipyridine macrocycle and an axle containing an NDI unit is intrinsic to the activity observed, including a [3]rotaxane that catalyses an otherwise disfavoured Michael addition in >60 fold selectivity over a competing decarboxylation pathway that dominates under Brønsted base conditions. The results are rationalized by detailed experimental investigations, electrochemical and computational analysis.

A Chemiluminescent Tetraaryl Diborane(4) Tetraanion.

Project description:Two subvalent, redox-active diborane(4) anions, [3]4- and [3]2- , carrying exceptionally high negative charge densities are reported: Reduction of 9-methoxy-9-borafluorene with Li granules without stirring leads to the crystallization of the B(sp3 )-B(sp2 ) diborane(5) anion salt Li[5]. [5]- contains a 2,2'-biphenyldiyl-bridged B-B core, a chelating 2,2'-biphenyldiyl moiety, and a MeO substituent. Reduction of Li[5] with Na metal gives the Na+ salt of the tetraanion [3]4- in which two doubly reduced 9-borafluorenyl fragments are linked via a B-B single bond. Comproportionation of Li[5] and Na4 [3] quantitatively furnishes the diborane(4) dianion salt Na2 [3], the doubly boron-doped congener of 9,9'-bis(fluorenylidene). Under acid catalysis, Na2 [3] undergoes a formal Stone-Wales rearrangement to yield a dibenzo[g,p]chrysene derivative with B=B core. Na2 [3] shows boron-centered nucleophilicity toward n-butyl chloride. Na4 [3] produces bright blue chemiluminescence when exposed to air.

Anion receptors containing thiazine-1,1-dioxide heterocycles as hydrogen bond donors.

Project description:The synthesis, X-ray crystal structures and anion recognition properties of two receptors containing thiazine-1,1-dioxide heterocycles as hydrogen bond donating subunits are reported. The newly synthesized receptors display much different anion selectivities in acetone-d? than N,N'-diphenyl-1,3-disulfonamidobenzene that was used as a comparison. The selectivity exhibited by one of the new receptors for chloride anions can be attributed to greater steric demand in the cleft formed, in part, by its terminal phenyl rings; an effect that is absent in the comparison receptor.

Through-bond/through-space anion relay chemistry exploiting vinylepoxides as bifunctional linchpins.

Project description:The development of new bifunctional linchpins that permit the union of diverse building blocks is essential for the synthetic utility of anion relay chemistry (ARC). The design, synthesis, and validation of three vinylepoxide linchpins for through-bond/through-space ARC are now reported. For negative charge migration, this class of bifunctional linchpins employs initial through-bond ARC by an SN 2' reaction, followed by through-space ARC exploiting a 1,4-Brook rearrangement. The trans-disubstituted vinylepoxide linchpin yields a mixture of E/Z isomers, whereas the cis-disubstituted and the trans-trisubstituted vinylepoxide linchpins proceed to deliver three-component adducts with excellent E selectivity.

Anion-Bridged Dual Hydrogen Bond Enabled Concerted Addition of Phenol to Glycal.

Project description:A noncovalent organocatalytic concerted addition of phenol to glycal is developed for the stereoselective and regioselective construction of biologically important phenolic 2-deoxyglycosides, featuring wide substrate tolerance. The method relies on an anion-bridged dual hydrogen bond interaction which is experimentally proved by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Ultraviolet and visible (UV-vis), and fluorescence analysis. Experimental evidence including kinetic analysis, Kinetic Isotope Effect (KIE) studies, linear free energy relationship, Hammett plot, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations is provided for a concerted mechanism where a high-energy oxocarbenium ion is not formed. In addition, the potential utility of this method is further demonstrated by the synthesis of biologically active glycosylated flavones. The benchmarking studies demonstrate significant advances in this newly developed method compared to previous approaches.

Aluminum-Boron Bond Formation by Boron Ester Oxidative Addition at an Alumanyl Anion.

Project description:The potassium diamidoalumanyl, [K{Al(SiNDipp)}]2 (SiNDipp = {CH2SiMe2NDipp}2), reacts with the terminal B-O bonds of pinacolato boron esters, ROBpin (R = Me, i-Pr), and B(OMe)3 to provide potsassium (alkoxy)borylaluminate derivatives, [K{Al(SiNDipp)(OR)(Bpin)}]n (R = Me, n = 2; R = i-Pr, n = ∞) and [K{Al(SiNDipp)(OMe)(B(OMe)2)}]∞, comprising Al-B σ bonds. An initial assay of the reactivity of these species with the heteroallene molecules, N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide and CO2, highlights the kinetic inaccessibility of their Al-B bonds; only decomposition at high temperature is observed with the carbodiimide, whereas CO2 preferentially inserts into the Al-O bond of [K{Al(SiNDipp)(OMe)(Bpin)}]2 to provide a dimeric methyl carbonate species. Treatment of the acyclic dimethoxyboryl species, however, successfully liberates a terminal alumaboronic ester featuring trigonal N2Al-BO2 coordination environments at both boron and aluminum.

Reversible O-O bond cleavage in copper-dioxygen isomers: impact of anion basicity.

Project description:Low-temperature oxygenation of copper(I) complexes of N,N,N',N'-tetraethylpropane-1,3-diamine yields solutions containing both mu-eta2:eta2-peroxodicopper(II) (P) and bis(mu-oxo)dicopper(III) (O) valence isomers. The P/O equilibrium position depends on the nature of the counteranion; P is favored with more basic anions. Titration and EXAFS experiments as well as DFT calculations suggest that axial donation from a sulfonate anion to the copper centers imparts an electronic/electrostatic bias toward the P isomer.

Single-Molecule Force Spectroscopy of a Tetraaryl Succinonitrile Mechanophore.

Project description:Fluorescent damage reporters that use mechanochemical activation of a covalent bond to elicit an optical signal are emerging tools in material mechanics as a means to access the nanoscale distribution of forces inside materials under stress. A promising class of damage reporters are tetraaryl succinonitriles (TASN), whose mechanical activation results in stable fluorescent radical species. However, in-depth insights into the molecular mechanics of TASN activation are absent, precluding their use as quantitative mechanoprobes. Here we perform single-molecule force spectroscopy experiments to provide these insights. We use a bridged version of the TASN unit, embedded in multi-mechanophore polymer, to enable multiplexed mechanochemical measurements at the single-molecule level. Our experiments reveal that TASN activates at surprisingly low forces and short time scales compared to other covalent mechanophores. These results establish TASN as a promising candidate for reporting the lower end of relevant forces in material mechanics.
