Unique Reactivity of a Diphenyldisilane Unit Incorporated into the Bicyclic Ring System: Generation of a Disilanyllithium via Silicon-Phenyl Bond Cleavage with Lithium

A bicyclic diphenyldisilane bearing two tetramethylene tethers reacts with lithium to form predominantly the disilanyllithium as a result of Si-C_Ph bond fission, while the pentamethylene homolog undergoes ordinary Si-Si bond cleavage to afford the expected phenylsilyllithium. The compressed Si-Si bond incorporated in the bicyclic ring system may be kinetically stabilized (compression effect), resulting in the unusual Si-C bond fission. When the reaction is carried out in the presence of chlorotrimethylsilane, a Calas-type reaction takes place on the phenyl rings. This result suggests that electron transfer to the phenyl group is the primary process in these bicyclic disilanes, followed by Si-Si or Si-C bond cleavage to afford the corresponding silyllithium species.     

Dynamic molecular recognition in the generation of a new crystal-engineering motif: a unique case study of a dicarboxylic acid with a ditopic receptor favouring a polymeric over a dimeric hydrogen-bonded supramolecular complex

A new crystal-engineering motif has been developed where a ditopic receptor 1 shows a novel syn-syn hydrogen-bonded polymeric supramolecular complex (Fig. 4b) (instead of a 1:1 dimeric syn-syn or polymeric syn-anti complex) giving rise to a hydrogen-bonded stair-like polymeric ribbon structure between the binding groups of the receptor pyridine amide and the carboxyl groups of the guest substrate.

Nanostructural Approach to Proton Ordering in Gas Hydrate Cages

A nanostructural approach to analysis of proton ordering in gas hydrate cages has been worked out within the framework of the topological model of strong and weak H-bonds. The approach involves rejection of the periodic boundary conditions, decomposition of the H-bond net into spherical layers, and two-dimensional drawing of the structure of spherical (spheroidal) fragments in the form of conjugate Schlegel diagrams. To analyze proton ordering in the spherical fragments composed of gas hydrate voids, we used the simulated annealing procedure and the correlation extension method proposed earlier.     

Experimental and computational studies of intracomplex reactions in Mg+(primary, secondary alkylamine) complexes induced by photoexcitation of Mg+

We report herein a comprehensive study of photoinduced reactions in complexes of Mg+ with primary (n-propyl- and isopropylamine) and secondary amines (dipropyl- and diisopropylamine) in the spectral range of 230-440 nm. Similar to the methyl- and ethylamine complexes studied previously, N-H bond activation of these complexes is very unfavorable. Instead, the C(alpha)-C, C-N, and C(alpha)-H bond-cleavage photoproducts are observed after photoexcitation of the Mg+ complexes (3(2)P<--3(2)S). For Mg+(primary amine) complexes, for example, Mg+-NH2CH2CH2CH3, and Mg+-NH2CH(CH3)2, the photoproducts resulting from C(alpha)--C rupture prevail after P(z) and charge-transfer excitations, whereas the Mg+ photofragment is predominant upon P(x,y) excitation. However, with further N-alkyl substitution, as in Mg+(secondary amine) complexes, for example, Mg+-NH(CH2CH2CH3)2 and Mg+-NH[CH(CH3)2]2, a novel intracomplex C-C coupling photoreaction dominates on P(x,y) excitation of Mg+, which is believed to arise from Mg+* insertion into the C-N bond. With P(z) and charge-transfer excitation, the Mg-R elimination photoproducts, arising from C(alpha)-C bond cleavage, predominate. The energetics and possible mechanisms of the intracomplex photoreactions are analyzed in detail with the help of extensive quantum mechanics calculations.     

烷基锂分子中化学键的 ab initio 研究

本文用6-13G基函对3-12G基优化构型进行单点ab initio (从头计算法) 计算, 并根据轨道的组合系数、电荷密度图和键强参数等详尽地分析了烷基锂分子的成键情况。烷基锂的易挥发、易聚合、聚合物易溶于烃类溶剂中等物理、化学性质主要是其C－Li键具有显著的共价性缘故。由于烷基锂的C-Li键比C－H和C－C键的强度要小,故C-Li键易于断裂,使烷基锂表现有高的化学反应活性。     

New tridentate cyclometalated platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes of N,2-diphenyl-8-quinolinamine: syntheses, crystal structures, and photophysical properties

A new tridentate cyclometalated platinum(II) complex derived from N,2-diphenyl-8-quinolinamine, which consists of two crystallographic independent molecules with two intermolecular N-H-Cl-Pt hydrogen bonds forming a dimer, exhibited a low-energy luminescence at ca. 740 nm in a 1 × 10⁻³ M dichloromethane solution and a strong emission centered at 670 nm in a solid state, but the analogous palladium(II) complex was nonemissive at room temperature.
