Ylide-Stabilized Phosphenium Cations: Impact of the Substitution Pattern on the Coordination Chemistry.

ABSTRACT: Although N-heterocyclic phosphenium (NHP) cations have received considerable research interest due to their application in organocatalysis, including asymmetric synthesis, phosphenium cations with other substitution patterns have hardly been explored. Herein, the preparation of a series of ylide-substituted cations of type [YPR]⁺ (with Y=Ph₃ PC(Ph), R=Ph, Cy or Y) and their structural and coordination properties are reported. Although the diylide-substituted cation forms spontaneous from the chlorophosphine precursor, the monoylidylphosphenium ions required the addition of a halide-abstraction reagent. The molecular structures of the cations reflected the different degrees of electron donation from the ylide to the phosphorus center depending on the second substituent. Molecular orbital analysis confirmed the stronger donor properties of the ylide systems compared to NHPs with the mono-ylide substituted cations featuring a more pronounced electrophilicity. This was mirrored by the reaction of the cations towards gold chloride, in which only the diylide-substituted cation [Y₂ P]⁺ formed the expected LAuCl]⁺ complex, while the monoylide-substituted compounds reacted to the chlorophosphine ligands by transfer of the chloride from gold to the phosphorus center. These results demonstrate the tunability of ylide-functionalized phosphorus cations, which should allow for further applications in coordination chemistry in the future.

Internal azomethine ylide cycloaddition methodology for access to the substitution pattern of aziridinomitosene A.

Project description:Highly substituted, tethered alkyne dipolarophiles participate in the internal 2 + 3 cycloaddition with azomethine ylides generated by treatment of oxazolium salts with cyanide ion. Starting from oxazole 26, a sequence of N-methylation, cyanide addition, and electrocyclic ring opening of a 4-oxazoline intermediate affords the indoloquinone 31 in a one-pot process. A similar reaction from the protected alkynol derivative 25 affords the sensitive, but isolable, enone 32, and subsequent oxidation affords 31 and the deprotected quinone alcohol 34. Related azomethine cycloaddition methodology via intramolecular oxazolium salt formation from 43 or 46 is also demonstrated and allows the synthesis of quinone 45 and derived structures having the substitution pattern of aziridinomitosene A. Removal of the N-trityl protecting group could not be achieved without aziridine cleavage.

Using Ylide Functionalization to Stabilize Boron Cations.

Project description:The metalated ylide YNa [Y=(Ph3 PCSO2 Tol)- ] was employed as X,L-donor ligand for the preparation of a series of boron cations. Treatment of the bis-ylide functionalized borane Y2 BH with different trityl salts or B(C6 F5 )3 for hydride abstraction readily results in the formation of the bis-ylide functionalized boron cation [Y-B-Y]+ (2). The high donor capacity of the ylide ligands allowed the isolation of the cationic species and its characterization in solution as well as in solid state. DFT calculations demonstrate that the cation is efficiently stabilized through electrostatic effects as well as ?-donation from the ylide ligands, which results in its high stability. Despite the high stability of 2 [Y-B-Y]+ serves as viable source for the preparation of further borenium cations of type Y2 B+ ?LB by addition of Lewis bases such as amines and amides. Primary and secondary amines react to tris(amino)boranes via N-H activation across the B-C bond.

Sequential Electrophilic Substitution Reactions of Tungsten-Coordinated Phosphenium Ions and Phosphine Triflates.

Project description:ion of chloride from [W(CO)5{PPhCl2}] with AgOSO2CF3 leads to the phosphine triflate complex [W(CO)5{PPhCl(OSO2CF3)}] which undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions with N,N-diethylaniline, anisole, N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine, toluene, biphenyl, naphthalene, 2,7,9,9-tetramethyl xanthene, and allyltrimethylsilane to form the chlorophosphine complexes [W(CO)5{PPhClR}], where R = p-diethylanilinyl, p-anisyl, 2-(N,N-dimethyl-4-methylphenyl), p-tolyl, p-phenylphenyl, 1-naphthyl, 4-(2,7,9,9-tetramethylxanthyl), and allyl. Abstraction of the second chloride with AgOSO2CF3 leads, in most cases, to the respective phosphine triflates [W(CO)5{PPhR(OSO2CF3)}], which react with ferrocene to form the ferrocenyl phosphine complexes [W(CO)5{PPhR(C10H9Fe)}]. The W(CO)5 unit can be removed via photolysis in the presence of bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane to form metal-free phosphines.

Substitution pattern reverses the fluorescence response of coumarin glycoligands upon coordination with silver (I).

Project description:Development of sugar-based fluorescence (FL) chemo-probes is of much interest since sugars are biocompatible, water-soluble and structurally rigid natural starting materials. We report here that fluorescent glycoligands with two triazolyl coumarin moieties installed onto the different positions of an identical glucosyl nucleus exert completely reversed optical response to a metal ion. C3,4-, C2,3- and C4,6-di-substituted coumarin glucosides synthesized by a click reaction similarly showed a selective FL variation in the presence of silver (I) among a range of metal cations in an aqueous solution. However, the variation was determined to be converse: the FL of the C3,4-ligand was quenched whereas that of the C2,3/C4,6-ligand tangibly enhanced. FL and NMR titrations suggested that this divergence was due to the distinct complexation modes of the conformationally constrained ligands with the ion. The optimal motifs of the ligand-ion complexation were predicted by a computational simulation. Finally, the C2,3-ligand was determined to be of low cytotoxicity and applicable in the FL imaging of silver ions internalized by live cells.

Weakly stabilized primary borenium cations and their dicationic dimers.

Project description:Hydride abstraction from monocationic hydride bridged salts [H(H2B-L)2](+) [B(C6F5)4]¯ (L = Lewis base) generates an observable primary borenium cation for L = iPr2NEt, but with L = Me3N, Me2NPr, or several N-heterocyclic carbenes, highly reactive dicationic dimers are formed.

Reactive p-block cations stabilized by weakly coordinating anions.

Project description:The chemistry of the p-block elements is a huge playground for fundamental and applied work. With their bonding from electron deficient to hypercoordinate and formally hypervalent, the p-block elements represent an area to find terra incognita. Often, the formation of cations that contain p-block elements as central ingredient is desired, for example to make a compound more Lewis acidic for an application or simply to prove an idea. This review has collected the reactive p-block cations (rPBC) with a comprehensive focus on those that have been published since the year 2000, but including the milestones and key citations of earlier work. We include an overview on the weakly coordinating anions (WCAs) used to stabilize the rPBC and give an overview to WCA selection, ionization strategies for rPBC-formation and finally list the rPBC ordered in their respective group from 13 to 18. However, typical, often more organic ion classes that constitute for example ionic liquids (imidazolium, ammonium, etc.) were omitted, as were those that do not fulfill the - naturally subjective -"reactive"-criterion of the rPBC. As a rule, we only included rPBC with crystal structure and only rarely refer to important cations published without crystal structure. This collection is intended for those who are simply interested what has been done or what is possible, as well as those who seek advice on preparative issues, up to people having a certain application in mind, where the knowledge on the existence of a rPBC that might play a role as an intermediate or active center may be useful.

Polyether macrocycles from intramolecular cyclopropanation and ylide formation. Effect of catalyst and coordination.

Project description:The use of catalytic metal carbene methodology with diazoacetates for the construction in high yield of polyether macrocycles having ring sizes greater than 25 has been achieved by preventing access to gamma-C-H positions for intramolecular insertion. Cyclopropanation is the exclusive outcome of reactions performed with dirhodium(II) catalysts, and product yields of greater than 70% are obtained without resorting to high dilution with solvents. With copper(I) catalysts having multiple sites for polyether coordination, intramolecular oxonium ylide formation occurs at the terminal oxygen, followed by [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the pendant allyl group, in competition with cyclopropanation. Sodium ion coordination with the reactant diazo compound inhibits oxonium ylide formation in copper-catalyzed reactions. The composite results are consistent with copper serving as a template for the substrate as well as the site in the ether complex for diazo decomposition and subsequent metal carbene reactions.

Controlling oxygen coordination and valence of network forming cations.

Project description:Understanding the structure-property relationship of glass material is still challenging due to a lack of periodicity in disordered materials. Here, we report the properties and atomic structure of vanadium phosphate glasses characterized by reverse Monte Carlo modelling based on neutron/synchrotron X-ray diffraction and EXAFS data, supplemented by Raman and NMR spectroscopy. In vanadium-rich glass, the water durability, thermal stability and hardness improve as the amount of P2O5 increases, and the network former of the glass changes from VOx polyhedra to the interplay between VOx polyhedra and PO4 tetrahedra. We find for the first time that the coordination number of oxygen atoms around a V4+ is four, which is an unusually small coordination number, and plays an important role for water durability, thermal stability and hardness. Furthermore, we show that the similarity between glass and crystal beyond the nearest neighbour distance is important for glass properties. These results demonstrate that controlling the oxygen coordination and valence of the network-forming cation is necessary for designing the properties of glass.

Planar Cyclopenten-4-yl Cations: Highly Delocalized ? Aromatics Stabilized by Hyperconjugation.

Project description:Theoretical studies predicted the planar cyclopenten-4-yl cation to be a classical carbocation, and the highest-energy isomer of C5 H7 + . Hence, its existence has not been verified experimentally so far. We were now able to isolate two stable derivatives of the cyclopenten-4-yl cation by reaction of bulky alanes CpR AlBr2 with AlBr3 . Elucidation of their (electronic) structures by X-ray diffraction and quantum chemistry studies revealed planar geometries and strong hyperconjugation interactions primarily from the C-Al ? bonds to the empty p orbital of the cationic sp2 carbon center. A close inspection of the molecular orbitals (MOs) and of the anisotropy of current (induced) density (ACID), as well as the evaluation of various aromaticity descriptors indicated distinct aromaticity for these cyclopenten-4-yl derivatives, which strongly contrasts the classical description of this system. Here, strong delocalization of ? electrons spanning the whole carbocycle has been verified, thus providing rare examples of ? aromaticity involving saturated sp3 carbon atoms.

Impact of Backbone Pattern and Residue Substitution on Helicity in α/β/γ-Peptides.

Project description:We have evaluated the impact of changes in the chemical structure of peptidic oligomers containing α-, β-, and γ-amino acid residues (α/β/γ-peptides) on the propensities of these oligomers to adopt helical conformations in aqueous and alcoholic solutions. These studies were inspired by our previous discovery that α/β/γ-peptides containing a regular αγααβα hexad repeat adopt an α-helix-like conformation in which the β and γ residues are aligned in a stripe along one side, and the remainder of the helix surface is defined by the α residues. This helix was found to be most stable when the β and γ residues were rigidified with specific cyclic constraints. Relaxation of the β residue constraints caused profound conformational destabilization, but relaxation of the γ residue constraints led to only a moderate drop in helicity. The new work more broadly characterizes the effect of γ residue substitution on helix stability, based on circular dichroism and two-dimensional NMR measurements. We find that even a fully unsubstituted γ residue (derived from γ-aminobutyric acid) supports a moderate helical propensity, which is surprising in light of the strong destabilizing effect of glycine residues on α-helix stability. Additional studies examine the effects of altering sequence in terms of amino acid type, by comparing a prototype with the αγααβα hexad pattern to isomers with irregular arrangements of the α, β, and γ residues along the backbone. The data indicate that the strong helix-forming propensity previously discovered for α/β/γ-peptide 12-mers is retained when sequence is varied, with small variations detected across diverse α-β-γ placements. These structural findings suggest that α/β/γ-peptide scaffolds represent versatile scaffolds for the design of peptidic foldamers that display specific functions.
