1,3-Bis(tricyanoborane)imidazoline-2-ylidenate Anion-A Ditopic Dianionic N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand.

ABSTRACT: The 1,3-bis(tricyanoborane)imidazolate anion 1 was obtained in high yield from lithium imidazolate and B(CN)₃ -pyridine adduct. Anion 1 is chemically very robust and thus allowed the isolation of the corresponding H₅ O₂ ⁺ salt. Furthermore, monoanion 1 served as starting species for the novel dianionic N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC), 1,3-bis(tricyanoborane)imidazoline-2-ylidenate anion 3 that acts as ditopic ligand via the carbene center and the cyano groups at boron. First reactions of this new NHC 3 with methyl iodide, elemental selenium, and [Ni(CO)₄ ] led to the methylated imidazolate ion 4, the dianionic selenium adduct 5, and the dianionic nickel tricarbonyl complex 6. These NHC derivatives provide a first insight into the electronic and steric properties of the dianionic NHC 3. Especially the combination of properties, such as double negative charge, different coordination sites, large buried volume and good σ-donor and π-acceptor ability, make NHC 3 a unique and promising ligand and building block.

A Redox-Active Heterobimetallic N-Heterocyclic Carbene Based on a Bis(imino)pyrazine Ligand Scaffold.

Project description:A new redox-active N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) architecture is obtained using N-methylated pyrazinediimine iron complexes as precursors. The new species exhibit strong π-accepting/σ-donating properties and are able to ligate two metal centres simultaneously. The redox activity was demonstrated by the reversible chemical oxidation of a heterobimetallic Fe0 /RhI example, which affords an isolable ligand-based radical cation. The reversible redox process was then applied in the catalytic hydrosilylation of 4,4'-difluorobenzophenone, where the reaction rate could be reversibly controlled as a function of the catalyst oxidation state. The new NHC exhibits high electrophilicity and nucleophilicity, which was demonstrated in the reversible activation of alcohols and amines. The electronic structure of the resulting complexes was investigated through various spectroscopic and computational methods.

A Simple and Practical Bis-N-Heterocyclic Carbene as an Efficient Ligand in Cu-Catalyzed Glaser Reaction.

Project description:Conjugated diyne derivatives are important scaffolds in modern organic synthetic chemistry. Using the Glaser reaction involves the coupling of terminal alkynes which can efficiently produce conjugated diyne derivatives, while the use of a stoichiometric amount of copper salts, strong inorganic base, and excess oxidants is generally needed. Developing an environmentally friendly and effective method for the construction of symmetrical 1,3-diynes compounds by Glaser coupling is still highly desirable. In this study, we present an economical method for the production of symmetric diynes starting from various terminal acetylenes in a Glaser reaction. A simple and practical bis-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has been introduced as efficient ligands for the Cu-catalyzed Glaser reaction. High product yields were obtained at 100 °C for a variety of substrates including aliphatic and aromatic terminal alkynes and differently substituted terminal alkynes including the highly sterically hindered substrate 2-methoxy ethynylbenzene or 2-trifluoromethyl ethynylbenzene and a series of functional groups, such as trifluoromethyl group, ester group, carboxyl group, and nitrile group. The established protocol is carried out in air under base-free condition and is operationally simple. These research work suggest that bis-N-heterocyclic carbene could also an appealing ligand for Glaser reaction and provide a reference for the preparation of symmetric 1,3-diynes in industrial filed.

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand-Controlled Chemodivergent Suzuki-Miyaura Cross Coupling.

Project description:Two N-heterocyclic carbene ligands provide orthogonal chemoselectivity during the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura (SM) cross-coupling of chloroaryl triflates. The use of SIPr [SIPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-4,5-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene] leads to selective cross-coupling at chloride, while the use of SIMes [SIMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-4,5-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene] provides selective coupling at triflate. With most chloroaryl triflates and arylboronic acids, ligand-controlled selectivity is high (?10:1). The scope of this methodology is significantly more general than previously reported methods for selective SM coupling of chloroaryl triflates using phosphine ligands. Density functional theory studies suggest that palladium's ligation state during oxidative addition is different with SIMes compared to SIPr.

N-heterocyclic carbene-initiated alpha-acylvinyl anion reactivity: additions of alpha-hydroxypropargylsilanes to aldehydes.

Project description:Highly substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones are prepared by the N-heterocyclic carbene-initiated addition of alpha-hydroxypropargylsilanes to aldehydes. This strategy serves as a highly efficient alternative to the standard Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) approaches for these types of compounds. In contrast to the MBH reaction, different substitution in the beta-position of the product (R1) can be accommodated in moderate to excellent yields with a high degree of control over the resulting alkene.

<i>N</i>-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligand Stability on Gold Nanoparticles in Biological Media.

Project description:The ability to functionalize gold nanoparticle surfaces with target ligands is integral to developing effective nanosystems for biomedical applications, ranging from point-of-care diagnostic devices to site-specific cancer therapies. By forming strong covalent bonds with gold, thiol functionalities can easily link molecules of interest to nanoparticle surfaces. Unfortunately, thiols are inherently prone to oxidative degradation in many biologically relevant conditions, which limits their broader use as surface ligands in commercial assays. Recently, N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands emerged as a promising alternative to thiols since initial reports demonstrated their remarkable stability against ligand displacement and stronger metal-ligand bonds. This work explores the long-term stability of NHC-functionalized gold nanoparticles suspended in five common biological media: phosphate-buffered saline, tris-glycine potassium buffer, tris-glycine potassium magnesium buffer, cell culture media, and human serum. The NHCs on gold nanoparticles were probed with surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). SERS is useful for monitoring the degradation of surface-bound species because the resulting vibrational modes are highly sensitive to changes in ligand adsorption. Our measurements indicate that imidazole-based NHCs remain stable on gold nanoparticles over the 21 days of examination in all tested environments, with no observed change in the molecule's SERS signature, XPS response, or UV-vis plasmon band.

Synthesis and Mechanochemical Activity of Peptide-Based Cu(I) Bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) Complexes.

Project description:With the class of shock-absorbing proteins, nature created some of the most robust materials combining both mechanical strength and elasticity. Their excellent ability to dissipate energy to prevent surrounding cells from damage is an interesting property that regularly is exploited for applications in biomimetic materials. Similar to biomaterials, where mechanical stimuli are transmitted into a (bio)chemical response, mechanophoric catalysts transform mechanical energy into a chemical reaction. Force transmission is realized commonly by polymeric handles directing the applied force to the mechanophoric bond, which in turn leads to stress-induced activation of the catalyst. Therefore, shock-absorbing proteins able to take up and store mechanical energy elastically for subsequent force transduction to the labile bond seem to be perfect candidates to fulfill this task. Here, we report on the synthesis of two different latent mechanophoric copper(I) bis(N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes bearing either two carboxyl groups or two amino groups which allow conjugation reactions with either the N- or the C-terminus of amino acids or peptides. The chosen catalysts can be activated, for instance, by applying external mechanical force via ultrasound, removing one N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand. Post-modification of the mechanophoric catalysts via peptide coupling (Gly, Val) and first reactions showed that the mechanoresponsive behavior was still present after the coupling. Subsequent polycondensation of both catalysts lead to a polyamide including the Cu(I) moiety. Mechanochemical activation by ultrasound showed conversions in the copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide "click" reaction (CuAAC) up to 9.9% proving the potential application for the time and spatial controlled CuAAC.
