Electrochemical Generation of Hypervalent Bromine(III) Compounds.

ABSTRACT: In sharp contrast to hypervalent iodine(III) compounds, the isoelectronic bromine(III) counterparts have been little studied to date. This knowledge gap is mainly attributed to the difficult-to-control reactivity of λ³ -bromanes as well as to their challenging preparation from the highly toxic and corrosive BrF₃ precursor. In this context, we present a straightforward and scalable approach to chelation-stabilized λ³ -bromanes by anodic oxidation of parent aryl bromides possessing two coordinating hexafluoro-2-hydroxypropanyl substituents. A series of para-substituted λ³ -bromanes with remarkably high redox potentials spanning a range from 1.86 V to 2.60 V vs. Ag/AgNO₃ was synthesized by the electrochemical method. We demonstrate that the intrinsic reactivity of the bench-stable bromine(III) species can be unlocked by addition of a Lewis or a Brønsted acid. The synthetic utility of the λ³ -bromane activation is exemplified by oxidative C-C, C-N, and C-O bond forming reactions.

Electrochemical Synthesis of Dimeric λ<sup>3</sup>-Bromane: Platform for Hypervalent Bromine(III) Compounds.

Project description:A straightforward and scalable approach to a previously unreported class of cyclic hypervalent Br(III) species capitalizes on the anodic oxidation of aryl bromide to dimeric benzbromoxole that serves as a versatile platform to access a range of structurally diverse Br(III) congeners such as acetoxy-, alkoxy-, and ethynyl-λ3-bromanes as well as diaryl-λ3-bromanes. The synthetic utility of dimeric λ3-bromane is exemplified by photoinduced Minisci-type heteroarylation reactions and benzylic oxidation.

Electrochemistry and Reactivity of Chelation-stabilized Hypervalent Bromine(III) Compounds.

Project description:Hypervalent bromine(III) reagents possess a higher electrophilicity and a stronger oxidizing power compared to their iodine(III) counterparts. Despite the superior reactivity, bromine(III) reagents have a reputation of hard-to-control and difficult-to-synthesize compounds. This is partly due to their low stability, and partly because their synthesis typically relies on the use of the toxic and highly reactive BrF3 as a precursor. Recently, we proposed chelation-stabilized hypervalent bromine(III) compounds as a possible solution to both problems. First, they can be conveniently prepared by electro-oxidation of the corresponding bromoarenes. Second, the chelation endows bromine(III) species with increased stability while retaining sufficient reactivity, comparable to that of iodine(III) counterparts. Finally, their intrinsic reactivity can be unlocked in the presence of acids. Herein, an in-depth mechanistic study of both the electrochemical generation and the reactivity of the bromine(III) compounds is disclosed, with implications for known applications and future developments in the field.

Hypervalent Iodine(III) Compounds as Biaxial Halogen Bond Donors.

Project description:"Hypervalent" iodine(III) derivatives have been established as powerful reagents in organic transformations, but so far only a handful of studies have addressed their potential use as halogen-bonding noncovalent Lewis acids. In contrast to "classical" halogen-bond donors based on iodine(I) compounds, iodine(III) salts feature two directional electrophilic axes perpendicular to each other. Herein we present the first systematic investigation on biaxial binding to such Lewis acids in solution. To this end, hindered and unhindered iodolium species were titrated with various substrates, including diesters and diamides, via 1H NMR spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry. Clear evidence for biaxial binding was obtained in two model systems, and the association strengths increased by 2 orders of magnitude. These findings were corroborated by density functional theory calculations (which reproduced the trend well but underestimated the absolute binding constants) and a cocrystal featuring biaxial coordination of a diamide to the unhindered iodolium compound.

Halogen bonding in hypervalent iodine and bromine derivatives: halonium salts.

Project description:Halogen bonds have been identified in a series of ionic compounds involving bromonium and iodonium cations and several different anions, some also containing hypervalent atoms. The hypervalent bromine and iodine atoms in the examined compounds are found to have positive σ-holes on the extensions of their covalent bonds, while the hypervalent atoms in the anions have negative σ-holes. The positive σ-holes on the halogens of the studied halonium salts determine the linearity of the short contacts between the halogen and neutral or anionic electron donors, as usual in halogen bonds.

The Tetrel Bonds of Hypervalent Halogen Compounds.

Project description:The tetrel bond between PhXF2Y(TF3) (T = C and Si; X = Cl, Br, and I; Y = F and Cl) and the electron donor MCN (M = Li and Na) was investigated at the M06-2X/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory. As the electronegativity of the halogen atom X increases, the strength of the tetrel bond also increases, but as the electronegativity of the halogen atom Y increases, the strength of the tetrel bond decreases. The magnitude of the interaction energy in most -CF3 complexes was found to be less than 10 kcal/mol, but to exceed 11 kcal/mol for PhClF2Cl(CF3)⋯NCNa. The tetrel bond is greatly enhanced when the -SiF3 group interacts with LiCN or NaCN, with the largest interaction energy approaching 100 kcal/mol and displaying a covalent Si⋯N interaction. Along with this enhancement, the Si⋯N distance was found to be less than the X-Si bond length, the -SiF3 group to be closer to the N atom, and in most -SiF3 systems, the X-Si-F angle to be less than 90°; the -SiF3 group therefore undergoes inversion and complete transfer in some systems.

Stability Study of Hypervalent Tellurium Compounds in Aqueous Solutions.

Project description:Hypervalent tellurium compounds (telluranes) are promising therapeutical agents with negligible toxicities for some diseases in animal models. The C-Te bond of organotellurium compounds is commonly considered unstable, disfavoring their applicability in biological studies. In this study, the stability of a set of telluranes composed of an inorganic derivative and noncharged and charged organic derivatives was monitored in aqueous media with 1H, 13C, and 125Te NMR spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry. Organic telluranes were found to be remarkably resistant and stable to hydrolysis, whereas the inorganic tellurane AS101 is totally converted to the hydrolysis product, trichlorooxytellurate, [TeOCl 3 ]-, which was also observed in the hydrolysis of TeCl 4 . The noteworthy stability of organotelluranes in aqueous media makes them prone to further structure-activity relationship studies and to be considered for broad biological investigations.

Monitor application of multi-electrochemical sensor in extracting bromine from seawater.

Project description:In this paper, a set of online measurement devices of multi-electrochemical sensor was investigated. Combined with industrial distributed control system, it was first applied in extracting bromine from seawater to realize the real-time adjustment of production process parameters. In the process of extracting bromine from seawater, the pH value of acidified raw brine, the addition amount of Cl2 in the oxidation stage and the addition amount of SO2 in the absorption stage are key parameters to control the whole production process. The multi-electrochemical sensor realized a rapid and high-throughput detection of the above parameters by integrating an all-solid-stage bromide ion selective electrode (Br-ISE), Eh electrode and pH electrode. The Br-ISE and the pH electrode were self-developed electrodes and the Pt electrode was Eh electrode. The pH electrode was used to control the addition amount of H2SO4 during the acidification of the brine. The Eh electrode was used to control the addition amount of Cl2 during the oxidation stage and the addition amount of SO2 during the absorption stage. The Br-ISE was used to monitor the Br- concentration change in the raw brine. Results showed the optimum range of Eh in the oxidation stage and absorption stage of brine were 950-1000 mV and 580-610 mV, respectively. The application of multi-electrochemical sensor in industrial bromine production can realize real-time control of material addition and save the cost of production.

Hypervalent Iodine(III)-Catalysed Enantioselective α-Acetoxylation of Ketones.

Project description:An enantioselective catalytic synthesis of α-acetoxylated ketones through I(I)/I(III) catalysis using a resorcinol/lactamide-based chiral iodoarene is reported. Catalyst turnover by in situ generation of the active iodine(III) derivative is achieved by oxidation with mCPBA in the presence of acetic acid. The prior transformation of ketones to easily accessible acetyl enol ethers is beneficial and yields up to 97 % with enantioselectivities up to 88 % ee are obtained using only low catalyst loadings of only 5 mol % under mild reaction conditions.

Organic bromine compounds produced in sea ice in Antarctic winter.

Project description:During polar springtime, active bromine drives ozone, a greenhouse gas, to near-zero levels. Bromine production and emission in the polar regions have so far been assumed to require sunlight. Here, we report measurements of bromocarbons in sea ice, snow, and air during the Antarctic winter that reveal an unexpected new source of organic bromine to the atmosphere during periods of no sunlight. The results show that Antarctic winter sea ice provides 10 times more bromocarbons to the atmosphere than Southern Ocean waters, and substantially more than summer sea ice. The inclusion of these measurements in a global climate model indicates that the emitted bromocarbons will disperse throughout the troposphere in the southern hemisphere and through photochemical degradation to bromine atoms, contribute ~ 10% to the tropospheric reactive bromine budget. Combined together, our results suggest that winter sea ice could potentially be an important source of atmospheric bromine with implications for atmospheric chemistry and climate at a hemispheric scale.

Synthesis and properties of hypervalent electron-rich pentacoordinate nitrogen compounds.

Project description:Isolation and structural characterization of hypervalent electron-rich pentacoordinate nitrogen species have not been achieved despite continuous attempts for over a century. Herein we report the first synthesis and isolation of air stable hypervalent electron-rich pentacoordinate nitrogen cationic radical (11-N-5) species from oxidation of their corresponding neutral (12-N-5) species. In the cationic radical species, the nitrogen centers adopt a trigonal bipyramidal geometry featuring a 3-center-5-electron hypervalent attractive interaction. The combination of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and computational studies revealed weak N-O interactions between the central nitrogen cation and oxygen atoms. This successful design strategy and isolation of air-stable pentacoordinate hypervalent nitrogen species allow further investigations on reactivity and properties resulting from these unusually weakly coordinating interactions in nitrogen compounds.
