Azulene Functionalization by Iron-Mediated Addition to a Cyclohexadiene Scaffold.

ABSTRACT: The functionalization of azulenes via reaction with cationic ?5-iron carbonyl diene complexes under mild reaction conditions is demonstrated. A range of azulenes, including derivatives of naturally occurring guaiazulene, were investigated in reactions with three electrophilic iron complexes of varying electronic properties, affording the desired coupling products in 43-98% yield. The products were examined with UV-vis/fluorescence spectroscopy and showed interesting halochromic properties. Decomplexation and further derivatization of the products provide access to several different classes of 1-substituted azulenes, including a conjugated ketone and a fused tetracycle.

N2 functionalization at iron metallaboratranes.

Project description:The reactivity of the anionic dinitrogen complex [(TPB)Fe(N(2))](-) (TPB = tris[2-(diisopropylphosphino)phenyl]borane) toward silicon electrophiles has been examined. [(TPB)Fe(N(2))](-) reacts with trimethylsilyl chloride to yield the silyldiazenido complex (TPB)Fe(NNSiMe(3)), which is reduced by Na/Hg in THF to yield the corresponding sodium-bound anion [(TPB)Fe(NNSiMe(3))]Na(THF). The use of 1,2-bis(chlorodimethylsilyl)ethane in the presence of excess Na/Hg results in the disilylation of the bound N(2) molecule to yield the disilylhydrazido(2-) complex (TPB)Fe?NR (R = 2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-1-aza-2,5-disilacyclopentyl). One of the phosphine arms of TPB in (TPB)Fe?NR can be substituted by CO or (t)BuNC to yield crystalline adducts (TPB)(L)Fe?NR (L = CO, (t)BuNC). The N-N bond in (TPB)((t)BuNC)Fe?NR is cleaved upon standing at room temperature to yield a phosphoraniminato/disilylamido iron(II) complex. The flexibility of the Fe-B linkage is thought to play a key role in these transformations of Fe-bound dinitrogen.

Iridium-catalyzed C-C coupling via transfer hydrogenation: carbonyl addition from the alcohol or aldehyde oxidation level employing 1,3-cyclohexadiene.

Project description:Under hydrogen autotransfer conditions employing a catalyst derived from [Ir(cod)Cl]2 and BIPHEP, 1,3-cyclohexadiene (CHD) couples to benzylic alcohols 1a-9a to furnish carbonyl addition products 1c-9c, which appear as single diastereomers with variable quantities of regioisomeric adducts 1d-9d. Under related transfer hydrogenation conditions employing isopropanol as terminal reductant, identical carbonyl adducts 1c-9c are obtained from the aldehyde oxidation level. Isotopic labeling studies corroborate a mechanism involving hydrogen donation from the reactant alcohol or sacrificial alcohol (i-PrOH).

Ligand functionalization as a deactivation pathway in a fac-Ir(ppy)3-mediated radical addition.

Project description:Knowledge of the kinetic behavior of catalysts under synthetically relevant conditions is vital for the efficient use of compounds that mediate important transformations regardless of their composition or driving force. In particular, these data are of great importance to add perspective to the growing number of applications of photoactive transition metal complexes. Here we present kinetic, synthetic, and spectroscopic evidence of the mechanistic behavior of fac-Ir(ppy)3 in a visible light-mediated radical addition to 3-methylindole, demonstrating the instability of fac-Ir(ppy)3 under these conditions. During the reaction, rapid in situ functionalization of the photocatalyst occurs, eventually leading to deactivation. These findings demonstrate a conceivable deactivation process for catalytic single electron reactions in the presence of radicophilic ligands. Attempts to inhibit photocatalyst deactivation through structural modification provide further insight into catalyst selection for a given system of interest.

Phospha-Michael Addition as a New Click Reaction for Protein Functionalization.

Project description:A new type of click reaction between an alkyl phosphine and acrylamide was developed and applied for site-specific protein labeling in vitro and in live cells. Acrylamide is a small electrophilic olefin that readily undergoes phospha-Michael addition with an alkyl phosphine. Our kinetic study indicated a second-order rate constant of 0.07?m(-1) ?s(-1) for the reaction between tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine and acrylamide at pH?7.4. To demonstrate its application in protein functionalization, we used a dansyl-phosphine conjugate to successfully label proteins that were site-specifically installed with N(?) -acryloyl-l-lysine and employed a biotin-phosphine conjugate to selectively probe human proteins that were metabolically labeled with N-acryloyl-galactosamine.

Noncovalent functionalization of carbon nanotubes as a scaffold for tissue engineering.

Project description:Tissue engineering is one of the hot topics in recent research that needs special requirements. It depends on the development of scaffolds that allow tissue formation with certain characteristics, carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-collagen composite attracted the attention of the researchers with this respect. However, CNTs suffer from low water dispersibility, which hampered their utilization. Therefore, we aim to functionalize CNTs non-covalently with pyrene moiety using an appropriate hydrophilic linker derivatized from polyethylene glycol (PEG) terminated with hydroxyl or carboxyl group to disperse them in water. The functionalization of the CNTs is successfully confirmed by TEM, absorption spectroscopy, TGA, and zeta potential analysis. 3T3 cells-based engineered connective tissues (ECTs) are generated with different concentrations of the functionalized CNTs (f-CNTs). These tissues show a significant enhancement in electrical conductivity at a concentration of 0.025%, however, the cell viability is reduced by about 10 to 20%. All ECTs containing f-CNTs show a significant reduction in tissue fibrosis and matrix porosity relative to the control tissues. Taken together, the developed constructs show great potential for further in vivo studies as engineered tissue.

2-(Naphthalen-2-yl)azulene.

Project description:In the title compound, C(20)H(14), a naphthalene ring system is linked at the 2-position to the 2-C atom of the five-membered ring of an azulene unit. The compound crystallizes with two reasonably similar mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. Neither mol-ecule is perfectly planar: the r.m.s. deviations from the best fit planes through all non-H atoms are 0.092 and 0.091?Å for the two mol-ecules. The dihedral angle between the mol-ecular planes is 49.60?(4)°. The naphthalene and azulene ring systems are inclined at dihedral angles of 6.54?(12) and 5.68?(12)° in the two mol-ecules. The crystal structure exhibits two sets of parallel layers, a typical edge-to-face herringbone packing arrangement. The structure is stabilized by an extensive series of weak C-H?? inter-actions.

Silver-mediated oxidative functionalization of alkylsilanes.

Project description:A general approach to the functionalization of aliphatic C-Si bonds in the presence of silver salts and oxidants has been reported. This strategy encompasses a range of valuable C-Si transformations, including the direct conversions of a C-Si bond to C-OCF3, C-OBz, C-OCOCF3, C-SCF3, C-SCN, and C-N3 bonds. Among them, trifluoromethoxylation of alkylsilanes is reported for the first time. In addition, mechanistic studies indicate that this reaction may proceed through a radical mechanism.

Determining addition pathways and stable isomers for CF3 functionalization of endohedral Gd@C60.

Project description:Using density functional theory approaches, we follow the sequential addition of CF3 functional groups to the surface of the metallic endofullerene species Gd@C60. The presence of gadolinium in the interior of the cage strongly influences the addition sequence. The calculations are able to successfully identify end points in the addition sequence at Gd@C60(CF3) n , n = 3 and two isomers at n = 5, in predictive agreement with experiment. Inverting the algorithm to determine the most labile groups also identifies the correct positively charged Gd@C60(CF3)4+ isomer, as confirmed by experimental mass spectra. The importance of surface mobility, notably at later stage addition, is discussed.
