Combinatorial solid-phase synthesis and screening of a diverse tripodal triazacyclophane (TAC)-based synthetic receptor library showing a remarkable selectivity towards a d-Ala-d-Ala containing ligand

A large and diverse library of a TAC-based tripodal synthetic receptor library (6) has been prepared by split-mix synthesis on the solid phase. Each receptor of the 46,656-member TAC-based library (6) is attached to a solid support bead and contains three different dipeptide arms. On-bead screening for binding of a d-Ala-d-Ala containing ligand (7) by the TAC-based library (6) was performed in phosphate buffer (0.2 N, pH=7.0). Remarkable selectivity for particular library members was observed. The best binding members from the screening were manually selected using fluorescence microscopy and subjected to structural analysis by sequencing. The thus determined binding sequences showed a high consensus.     

Concerning the Reaction of the Betain‐Like Compound O2CC(PPh3)2 with Tungsten‐Carbonyl Derivatives; Preparation and Crystal Structures of [(CO)5W{η1‐O2C2(PPh3)2}] and [(CO)4W{η2‐O2C2(PPh3)2}]

The carbodiphosphorane CO₂ adduct O₂CC(PPh₃)₂ ( 1a ) reacts with [(CO)₅W(THF)] and [(CO)₃W(NCEt)₃] to produce the complexes [(CO)₅W{η¹‐O₂CC(PPh₃)₂}] ( 2 ) and [(CO)₄W{η²‐O₂CC(PPh₃)₂}] ( 3 ), respectively. Whereas in 2 the betain‐like ligand is coordinated at the tungsten atom in a monodentate manner, in 3 it acts as a chelating ligand with formation of a WO₂C four‐membered ring. As a by‐product during the reaction with the acetonitrile adduct also some crystals of the hydrolysis product [HC(PPh₃)₂]₂[W₆O₁₉] · 3C₂H₄Cl₂ (4 · 3C₂H₄Cl₂) were isolated. All compounds could be characterized by X‐ray analyses and the usual spectroscopic methods.     

Iron and ruthenium triple-decker complexes with a central pentaphospholyl ligand

Thirty-electron triple-decker complexes with a central pentaphospholyl ligand [(η-C₅Me₅)Fe(μ-η:η-P₅)M(η-C₅R₅)]BF₄ (M=Fe, R=Me or M=Ru, R=H, Me) were synthesized by a stacking reaction of cationic 12-electron fragments [(η-C₅R₅)M]⁺ with (η-C₅Me₅)Fe(η-P₅).

Syntheses and structural characterizations of Fe4S4 cubane-like cluster compounds containing cycloalkylthiolate ligands

In a reaction system consisting of FeCl₂, tetrathiometallate and cycloalkylthiolate, two Fe₄S₄ cubanelike cluster compounds were obtained with the following crystallographic data: (PhCH₂NMe₃)₂ [ Fe₄S₄ (SC₅H₉)₄] (I), monoclinic space groupP2₁/c,a = 1.632 7(4),b=1.122 9(3),c = 2. 802 5(10) nm, β= 94.63(2)°, Z=4, andR= 0.074; (Et₄N)₂[F₄S4(SC₆H_lI)₄] (II), tetragod space group ,a = l.167 05(9),b = 1.167 06(2),c = 2.063 26(5) nm,Z = 2, D_obs = 1. 28 g/cm³, andR = 0. 078. The participation of cycloalkylthiolate ligand does not obviously arouse the change of the Fe₄S₄ core structure. Meanwhile, the influence of the cation on the structural symmetry of the Fe₄S₄ cluster dianion is also discussed.

Direct functionalization of the cyclometalated 2-(2′-pyridyl)phenyl ligand bound to iridium(III)

Treatment of [Ir(ppy)₂(μ-Cl)]₂ and [Ir(ppy)₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (ppy = 2-(2′-pyridyl)phenyl; dtbpy = 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine; OTf = triflate) with pyridinium tribromide in the presence of Fe powder led to isolation of [Ir(4-Br-ppy)(μ-Br)]₂ (1) and [Ir(4-Br-ppy)₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (2), respectively. Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling of 2 with RB(OH)₂ afforded [Ir(4-R-ppy)₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (R = 4′-FC₆H₄ (3)), 4′-PhC₆H₄ (4), 2′-thienyl (5), 4′-C₆H₄CH₂OH (6). Treatment of 4 with B₂(pin)₂ (pin = pinacolate) afforded [Ir{4-(pin)B-ppy}₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (7). The alkynyl complexes [Ir(4-PhCC-ppy)₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (8) and [Ir{4-Me₂(OH)CC-ppy}(4-Br-ppy)(dtbpy)][OTf] (9) were prepared by cross-coupling of 2 with PhCCSnMe₃ and Me₂C(OH)CCH, respectively. Ethynylation of [Ir(fppy)₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (fppy = 5-formyl-2-(2′-pyridyl)phenyl) with Ohira’s reagent MeCOC(N₂)P(O)(OEt)₂ afforded [Ir{5-HCC-ppy}₂(dtbpy)][OTf] (10). The solid-state structures of 2, 5, 7, and 10 have been determined.     

Synthesis, linear, and quadratic-nonlinear optical properties of octupolar D3 and D2d bipyridyl metal complexes

A series of D3 (Fe(II), Ru(II), Zn(II), Hg(II)) and D2d (Cu(I), Ag(I), Zn(II)) octupolar metal complexes featuring different functionalized bipyridyl ligands has been synthesized, and their thermal, linear (absorption and emission), and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties were determined. Their quadratic NLO susceptibilities were determined by harmonic light scattering at 1.91 microm, and the molecular hyperpolarizability (beta0) values are in the range of 200-657 x 10(-30) esu for octahedral complexes and 70-157 x 10(-30) esu for tetrahedral complexes. The octahedral zinc(II) complex 1 e, which contains a 4,4'-oligophenylenevinylene-functionalized 2,2'-bipyridine, exhibits the highest quadratic hyperpolarizability ever reported for an octupolar derivative (lambdamax=482 nm, beta1.91(1 e)=870 x 10(-30) esu, beta0(1 e)=657 x 10(-30) esu). Herein, we demonstrate that the optical and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties are strongly influenced by the symmetry of the complexes, the nature of the ligands (donor endgroups and pi linkers), and the nature of the metallic centers. For example, the length of the pi-conjugated backbone, the Lewis acidity of the metal ion, and the increase of ligand-to-metal ratio result in a substantial enhancement of beta. The contribution of the metal-to-ligand (MLCT) transition to the molecular hyperpolarizability is also discussed with respect to octahedral d6 complexes (M=Fe, Ru).
