An Expanded 2D Fused Aromatic Network with 90-Ring Hexagons.

ABSTRACT: Two-dimensional fused aromatic networks (2D FANs) have emerged as a highly versatile alternative to holey graphene. The synthesis of 2D FANs with increasingly larger lattice dimensions will enable new application perspectives. However, the synthesis of larger analogues is mostly limited by lack of appropriate monomers and methods. Herein, we describe the synthesis, characterisation and properties of an expanded 2D FAN with 90-ring hexagons, which exceed the largest 2D FAN lattices reported to date.

Evidence for the formation of fused aromatic ring structures in an organic soil profile in the early diagenesis.

Project description:The presence of fused aromatic ring (FAR) structures in soil define the stability of the recalcitrant soil organic matter (RSOM). FAR are important skeletal features in RSOM that contribute to its extended residence time. During the early diagenesis, FAR structures are formed through condensation and polymerization of biomolecules produced during plant residue and microbial product decay. Molecular level characterization of the RSOM extracted from an organic soil profile gives important insights into the formation of FAR. Advanced solid-state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, including recoupled long-range C-H dipolar dephasing experiments on extracted humic acids (HA) showed that they contain diagenetically formed FAR different from charcoal and lignin. Peaks characteristic of FAR are observed at all depths in the soil profile, with a greater prevalence observed in the HA extracts from the clay soil layer at the bottom. In the clay soil layer, 78% of the aromatic carbon was non-protonated, and this was 2.2-fold higher than the topsoil. These data further strengthen our understanding of the humification process that could occur in early diagenesis and help explain the importance of incorporating diagenesis as an important phenomenon for long-term carbon sequestration in soil.

Ring-opening and ring-expansion reactions of carborane-fused borirane.

Project description:Though the reaction chemistry of three-membered ring molecules such as cyclopropanes and their heteroatom-containing analogues has been extensively studied, the chemical properties of their boron analogues, boriranes, are little known thus far. This work describes the diverse reactivity patterns of carborane-fused borirane 2. This borirane engages in ring-opening reactions with different types of Lewis acids, such as BBr3, GeCl2, GaCl3, BH3(SMe2) and HBpin, affording a series of ring-opening products, in which M-X or B-H bonds add across the B-C(cage) bond of the three-membered ring in 2. On the other hand, borirane 2 can undergo ring-expansion reactions with unsaturated molecules such as PhCHO, CO2 and PhCN to give ring-expansion products, five-membered boracycles, via a concerted reaction mechanism as supported by DFT calculations. The results of this work not only enrich the reaction chemistry of boriranes, but also offer new routes to boron-containing compounds and heterocycles.

Dual inhibition of HCV and HIV by ring-expanded nucleosides containing the 5:7-fused imidazo[4,5-e][1,3]diazepine ring system. In vitro results and implications.

Project description:Examples of ring-expanded nucleosides (RENs), represented by general structures 1 and 2, exhibited dual anti-HCV and anti-HIV activities in both cell culture systems and the respective target enzyme assays, including HCV NTPase/helicase and human RNA helicase DDX3. Since HCV is a leading co-infection in late stage HIV AIDS patients, often leading to liver cirrhosis and death, the observed dual inhibition of HCV and HIV by the target nucleoside analogues has potentially beneficial implications in treating HIV patients infected with HCV.

Synthesis and Characterization of Fused-Ring Iridapyrroles.

Project description:Treatment of aromatic nitriles with methyllithium produces N-lithiated imine reagents which, when reacted with (η(2)-cyclooctene)(Cl)Ir(PMe(3))(3), generate fused iridaazacycles via ortho-metallation. Mono-protonation of these iridaazacycles produces fused iridapyrrole derivatives, while di-protonation leads to several different pathways.

Vertical two-dimensional layered fused aromatic ladder structure.

Project description:Planar two-dimensional (2D) layered materials such as graphene, metal-organic frameworks, and covalent-organic frameworks are attracting enormous interest in the scientific community because of their unique properties and potential applications. One common feature of these materials is that their building blocks (monomers) are flat and lie in planar 2D structures, with interlayer ?-? stacking, parallel to the stacking direction. Due to layer-to-layer confinement, their segmental motion is very restricted, which affects their sorption/desorption kinetics when used as sorbent materials. Here, to minimize this confinement, a vertical 2D layered material was designed and synthesized, with a robust fused aromatic ladder (FAL) structure. Because of its unique structural nature, the vertical 2D layered FAL structure has excellent gas uptake performance under both low and high pressures, and also a high iodine (I2) uptake capacity with unusually fast kinetics, the fastest among reported porous organic materials to date.

A green metal-free fused-ring initiating substance.

Project description:Over the past century, the search for lead-free, environmentally friendly initiating substances has been a highly challenging task in the field of energetic materials. Here, an organic primary explosive featuring a fused-ring structure, 6-nitro-7-azido-pyrazol[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazine-2-oxide, was designed and synthesized through a facile two-step reaction from commercially available reagents. This organic initiating substance meets nearly all of the stringent criteria of environmentally friendly primary explosives for commercial applications: it is free of toxic metals and perchlorate, has a high density, high priming ability, unusual sensitivities towards non-explosive stimuli, excellent environmental resistance, decent thermal stability, high detonation performance, satisfactory flowability and pressure durability, and is low-cost and easy to scale-up. These combined properties and performance measures surpass the current and widely used organic primary explosive, DDNP. The fused-ring organic primary explosive reported herein may find real-world application as an initiating explosive device in the near future.

Synthesis of fused-ring and attached-ring bis-tetrahydrofurans via Pd-catalyzed carboetherification.

Project description:A five step-synthesis of fused bis-tetrahydrofurans and attached bis-tetrahydrofurans from butadiene diepoxide is described. Two sequential Pd-catalyzed carboetherification reactions between protected 1,2-diols and aryl/alkenyl bromides, each of which form both a C-O bond and a C-C bond, are used to generate the heterocyclic rings with >20:1 dr. Installation of different R(1) and R(2) groups is achieved in a straightforward fashion through use of different aryl or alkenyl bromide coupling partners.

Copper-catalyzed intramolecular alkene carboetherification: synthesis of fused-ring and bridged-ring tetrahydrofurans.

Project description:Fused-ring and bridged-ring tetrahydrofuran scaffolds are found in a number of natural products and biologically active compounds. A new copper-catalyzed intramolecular carboetherification of alkenes for the synthesis of bicyclic tetrahydrofurans is reported herein. The reaction involves Cu-catalyzed intramolecular addition of alcohols to unactivated alkenes and subsequent aryl C-H functionalization provides the C-C bond. Mechanistic studies indicate a primary carbon radical intermediate is involved and radical addition to the aryl ring is the likely C-C bond-forming mechanism. Preliminary catalytic enantioselective reactions are promising (up to 75% ee) and provide evidence that copper is involved in the alkene addition step, likely through a cis-oxycupration mechanism. Catalytic enantioselective alkene carboetherification reactions are rare and future development of this new method into a highly enantioselective process is promising. During the course of the mechanistic studies a protocol for alkene hydroetherification was also developed.

Functional robustness of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolic network examined in a nidA aromatic ring-hydroxylating oxygenase mutant of Mycobacterium vanbaalenii PYR-1.

Project description:In this study, we obtained over 4,000 transposon mutants of Mycobacterium vanbaalenii PYR-1 and analyzed one of the mutants, 8F7, which appeared to lose its ability to degrade pyrene while still being able to degrade fluoranthene. This mutant was identified to be defective in nidA, encoding an aromatic ring-hydroxylating oxygenase (RHO), known to be involved in the initial oxidation step of pyrene degradation. When cultured with pyrene as a sole source of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis revealed that the nidA mutant showed a significant decrease in the rate of pyrene degradation compared to the wild-type PYR-1, although pyrene was still being degraded. However, when incubated with PAH mixtures including pyrene, phenanthrene, and fluoranthene, the pyrene degradation rate of the mutant was higher than that of the mutant previously incubated with pyrene as a sole source of PAH. There was no significant difference between wild-type PYR-1 and the mutant in the rates of phenanthrene and fluoranthene degradation. From the whole-cell proteome analysis of mutant 8F7 induced by pyrene, we identified expression of a number of RHO enzymes which are suspected to be responsible for pyrene degradation in the nidA mutant, which had no expression of NidA. Taken together, results in this study provide direct evidence for the in vivo functional role of nidA in pyrene degradation at the level of the ring-cleavage-process (RCP) functional module but also for the robustness of the PAH metabolic network (MN) to such a genetic perturbation.
