Phenylene-bridged bis(benzimidazolium) (BBIm²⁺): a dicationic organic photoredox catalyst.

ABSTRACT: A dicationic photoredox catalyst composed of phenylene-bridged bis(benzimidazolium) (BBIm²⁺) was designed, synthesised and demonstrated to promote the photochemical decarboxylative hydroxylation and dimerisation of carboxylic acids. The catalytic activity of BBIm²⁺ was higher than that for a monocation analogue, suggesting that the dicationic nature of BBIm²⁺ plays a key role in these decarboxylative reactions. The rate constant for the decay of the triplet-triplet absorption of the excited BBIm²⁺ increased with increasing concentration of the carboxylate anion with a saturated dependence, suggesting that photoinduced electron transfer occurs within the ion pair complex composed of the triplet excited state of BBIm²⁺ and a carboxylate anion.

Bis-Cyclometalated Indazole Chiral-at-Rhodium Catalyst for Asymmetric Photoredox Cyanoalkylations.

Project description:A new class of bis-cyclometalated rhodium(III) catalysts containing two inert cyclometalated 6-tert-butyl-2-phenyl-2H-indazole ligands and two labile acetonitriles is introduced. Single enantiomers (>99?%?ee) were obtained through a chiral-auxiliary-mediated approach using a monofluorinated salicyloxazoline. The new chiral-at-metal complex is capable of catalyzing the visible-light-induced enantioselective ?-cyanoalkylation of 2-acyl imidazoles in which it serves a dual function as the chiral Lewis acid catalyst for the asymmetric radical chemistry and at the same time as the photoredox catalyst for the visible-light-induced redox chemistry (up to 80?% yield, 4:1?d.r., and 95?%?ee, 12?examples).

Phenylene-Bridged Perylene Monoimides as Acceptors for Organic Solar Cells: A Study on the Structure-Property Relationship.

Project description:A series of non-fullerene acceptors based on perylene monoimides coupled in the peri position through phenylene linkers were synthesized via Suzuki-coupling reactions. Various substitution patterns were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations in combination with experimental data to elucidate the geometry and their optical and electrochemical properties. Further investigations of the bulk properties with grazing incidence wide angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS) gave insight into the stacking behavior of the acceptor thin films. Electrochemical and morphological properties correlate with the photovoltaic performance of devices with the polymeric donor PBDB-T and a maximum efficiency of 3.17 % was reached. The study gives detailed information about structure-property relationships of perylene-linker-perylene compounds.

Computational and theoretical chemistry of newly synthesized and characterized 2,2'-(5,5'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole-5,1-diyl))bis-N-acetamides.

Project description:Energetic heterocycles, including pyridines, triazoles, and tetrazoles, exhibit greater density, heats of formation, and oxygen balance compared to their carbocyclic counterparts, making them a promising approach for synthesizing novel bis-tetrazole acetamides. Synthesized compounds A-F, some of which feature a chlorine atom attached to the phenyl ring, serve as valuable synthons for aryl coupling reactions. Analysis via 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, as well as density functional considerations through B3LYP functional correlation with 6-311 + + G(d) and 6-31G(d) basis set, revealed the observed LUMO/HOMO energies and charge transfer within the molecule. Additionally, the dipole moment, chemical hardness, softness, ionization potential, local reactivity potential via Fukui indices and thermodynamic properties (entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy) of the molecule were calculated through density functional theory studies. In addition, Molecular Docking studies were conducted to investigate the anti-cancer potential of synthesized heterocyclic compounds against caspase 3, NF-KAPPA-B and P53 protein. Molecular docking analysis demonstrated a potent interaction between 2,2'-(5,5'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole-5,1-diyl))bis-N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) acetamides (6d) and TP53 and NF-KAPPA-B with binding energies of - 11.8 kJ/mol and - 10.9 kJ/mol for TP53 and NF-KAPPA-B, respectively. Similarly, 2,2'-(5,5'-(1,4-phenylene)bis(1H-tetrazole-5,1-diyl))bis-N-(2-chlorophenyl) acetamides (6f) exhibited a strong interaction with caspase-3 with binding energy of -10.0 kJ/mol, indicating their potential as therapeutic agents against these proteins. Furthermore, the findings of current study was further strengthen by 100 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Finally, theoretical studies of oxygen balance and nitrogen percentage suggest that these molecules can be utilized as energetic materials.

Alkyl Radical Addition to Aliphatic and Aromatic N-Acylhydrazones Using an Organic Photoredox Catalyst.

Project description:Increased versatility of intermolecular radical addition to imino acceptors via photoredox catalysis is reported. Primary and secondary radicals, generated via visible-light photocatalysis from alkyl biscatecholatosilicates with organocatalyst 4CzIPN, add successfully to both aromatic and aliphatic N-acylhydrazones in the presence of MgCl2. With N-benzoylhydrazones, a simple reductive cleavage of the N-N bond of the hydrazine adduct furnishes the free amine. Synthetic utility is exemplified in a synthetic application toward repaglinide, a clinically important hypoglycemic agent.

Site-selective remote C(sp3)-H heteroarylation of amides via organic photoredox catalysis.

Project description:Radical translocation processes triggered by nitrogen-centered radicals (NCRs), such as 1,5-hydrogen atom transfers (1,5-HAT), demonstrated by the well-established Hofmann-Löffler-Freytag (HLF) reaction, provide an attractive approach for the controllable and selective functionalization of remote inert C(sp3)-H bonds. Here we report an amidyl radical-triggered site-selective remote C(sp3)-H heteroarylation of amides under organic photoredox conditions. This approach provides a mild and highly regioselective reaction affording remote C(sp3)-H heteroarylated amides at room temperature under transition-metal free, weakly basic, and redox-neutral conditions. Non-prefunctionalized heteroarenes, such as purines, thiazolopyridines, benzoxazole, benzothiazoles, benzothiophene, benzofuran, thiazoles and quinoxalines, can be alkylated directly. Sequential and orthogonal C-H functionalization of different heteroarenes by taking advantage pH value or polarity of radicals has also been achieved. DFT calculations explain and can predict the site-selectivity and reactivity of this reaction. This strategy expands the scope of the Minisci reaction and serves as its alternative and potential complement.

One-Step Synthesis of [18F]Aromatic Electrophile Prosthetic Groups via Organic Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:To avoid the harsh conditions that are oftentimes adopted in direct radiofluorination reactions, conjugation of bioactive ligands with 18F-labeled prosthetic groups has become an important strategy to construct novel PET agents under mild conditions when the ligands are structurally sensitive. Prosthetic groups with [18F]fluoroarene motifs are especially appealing because of their stability in physiological environments. However, their preparation can be intricate, often requiring multistep radiosynthesis with functional group conversions to prevent the decomposition of unprotected reactive prosthetic groups during the harsh radiofluorination. Here, we report a general and simple method to generate a variety of highly reactive 18F-labeled electrophiles via one-step organophotoredox-mediated radiofluorination. The method benefits from high step-economy, reaction efficiency, functional group tolerance, and easily accessible precursors. The obtained prosthetic groups have been successfully applied in PET agent construction and subsequent imaging studies, thereby demonstrating the feasibility of this synthetic method in promoting imaging and biomedical research.
