Synthesis of Novel Thioethers from Polyhalobutadienes and Thiols

Abstract

Substituted perchlorobutadienes were synthesized from the reactions of hexachloro-1,3-butadiene with some thiols in ethanol in the presence of sodium hydroxide. The oxidation products were obtained from the reactions of thioethers with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The structures of the new compounds were characterized by microanalysis and spectroscopic data.

Gold nanoparticles stabilized by thioether dendrimers

Ligand-stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are promising materials for nanotechnology with applications in electronics, catalysis, and sensors. These applications depend on the ability to synthesize stable and monodisperse NPs. Herein, the design and synthesis of two series of dendritic thioether ligands and their ability to stabilize Au NPs is presented. The dendrimers have 1,3,5-trisubstituted benzene branching units bridged by either meta-xylene or ethylene moieties. A comparison between the two ligands shows how both size control and the stability of the NPs are influenced by the nature of the ligand-NP wrapping interaction. The meta-xylene-bridged ligands provided NPs with a narrow size distribution centered around a diameter of 1.2 nm, whereas the NPs formed with ethylene-bridged dendrimers lack long-term stability with NP aggregation detected by UV/Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The bulkier tert-butyl-functionalized meta-xylene bridges form larger ligand shells that inhibit further growth of the NPs and thus provide a simple route to stable and monodisperse Au NPs that may find use as functional components in nanoelectronic devices.

Covalently Binding Atomically Designed Au9 Clusters to Chemically Modified Graphene

Atomic‐resolution transmission electron microscopy was used to identify individual Au₉ clusters on a sulfur‐functionalized graphene surface. The clusters were preformed in solution and covalently attached to the surface without any dispersion or aggregation. Comparison of the experimental images with simulations allowed the rotational motion, without lateral displacement, of individual clusters to be discerned, thereby demonstrating a robust covalent attachment of intact clusters to the graphene surface.

Sulfur‐Functionalized Graphene Oxide by Epoxide Ring‐Opening

The treatment of graphene oxide (GO) with potassium thioacetate followed by an aqueous work‐up yields a new material via the ring‐opening of the epoxide groups. The new material is a thiol‐functionalized GO (GO‐SH) which is able to undergo further functionalization. Reaction with butyl bromide gives another new material, GO‐SBu, which shows significantly enhanced thermal stability compared to both GO and GO‐SH. The thiol‐functionalized GO material showed a high affinity for gold, as demonstrated by the selective deposition of a high density of gold nanoparticles.

Au108S24(PPh3)16: A Highly Symmetric Nanoscale Gold Cluster Confirms the General Concept of Metalloid Clusters

The reduction of (Ph₃P)AuCl with NaBH₄ in the presence of HSC(SiMe₃)₃, leads to one of the largest metalloid gold clusters: Au₁₀₈S₂₄(PPh₃)₁₆ ( 1 ). Within 1 an octahedral Au₄₄ core of gold atoms arranged as in Au metal is surrounded by 48 oxidized Au atoms of an Au₄₈S₂₄ shell, a novel building block in gold chemistry. The protecting Au₄₈S₂₄ shell is completed by additional 16 Au(PPh₃) units, leading to a complete protection of the gold core. Within 1 the Au–Au distances get more molecular on going from the center to the ligand shell. Cluster 1 represents novel structural motives in the field of metalloid gold clusters which also are partly typical for metal atoms in metalloid clusters: M_n R_m (n >m ).     

Parametric Study of Gold Nanoparticles Synthesis under Micro-Continuous Flow Conditions

The synthesis of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) using chemical reduction in batch and microreactor methods has been reported. A parametric study of the effect of several parameters on the size of gold nanoparticles was performed in batch synthesis mode using the modified Martin method. The best-obtained conditions were used to synthesize gold nanoparticles using a glass chip microreactor, and the size of the resulting GNPs from both methods was compared. The presence of polyvinyl alcohol (SC) was used as a capping agent, and sodium borohydride (SB) was used as a reducing agent. Several parameters were studied, including HAuCl₄, SC, SB concentrations, the volumetric ratio of SB to gold precursor, pH, temperature, and mixing speed. Various techniques were used to characterize the resulting nanoparticles, including Atomic Absorbance spectroscopy (AAS), Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), and dynamic light scratching (DLS). Optimum conditions were obtained for the synthesis of gold nanoparticles. Under similar reaction conditions, the microreactor consistently produced smaller nanoparticles in the range of 10.42–11.31 nm with a reaction time of less than 1 min.

The Regiospecific Synthesis of Some New 3,5‐Disubstituted Isoxazoles

The compounds with isoxazole moiety have many pharmacological, biological and industrial applications, specifically their antiviral activity. In this research work, seven new compounds of 3,5‐disubstituted isoxazoles were synthesized. Propargyl alcohol ( 1 ) reacted with benzoyl chloride to give propargylphenylcarboxylate ( 2 ). Then, the aldehydes ( 3a‐3g ) were converted to the related oximes ( 4a‐4g ) and nitrileoxides in situ by NaOCl, consequently. Reaction of compound 2 with nitrileoxides in a [3+2] cycloaddition reaction gave regiospecifically isoxazoles ( 5a‐5g ). ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, FT‐IR, and elemental analyses confirmed the structure of the synthesized compounds.     

An Efficient and Odorless Synthesis of Thioethers Using 2‐[Bis(alkylthio)methylene]‐3‐oxo‐N‐o‐tolylbutanamides as Thiol Equivalents

Using 2‐[bis(alkylthio)methylene]‐3‐oxo‐N‐o‐tolylbutanamides 1 as odorless thiol equivalents, an efficient and odorless synthesis of thioethers has been developed. Promoted by NaOH in EtOH, the cleavage of 1 commences to generate thiolate anions, and the generated thiolate anions then react with halides to give various thioethers in good yield. It is noteworthy that only a very faint odor of thiols can be perceived during both the reaction and the workup.

Dendronized Gelatin-Mediated Synthesis of Gold Nanoparticles

Thermoresponsive dendronized gelatins (GelG1) or gelatin methacrylates (GelG1MA) were used as precursors to modulate the efficient reduction of Au(III) to form stable gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) through UV irradiation. These dendronized gelatins were obtained through the amidation of gelatin or gelatin methacrylates with dendritic oligoethylene glycols (OEGs). Crowded OEG dendrons along the gelatin backbones create a hydrophobic microenvironment, which promotes the reduction of Au(III). Gelatin backbones act as ligands through the electron-rich groups to facilitate the reduction, while the dendritic OEGs provide shielding effects through crowding to form a hydrophobic microenvironment, which not only enhances the reduction but also stabilize the formed AuNPs through encapsulation. The effects of dendron coverage on the dendronized biomacromolecules and their thermoresponsiveness on the reduction kinetics were examined. Dendronized gelatin/AuNPs hydrogels were further prepared through the in situ photo-crosslinking of GelG1MA. The modification of natural macromolecules through dendronization presented in this report facilitates a novel platform for the environmentally friendly synthesis of noble metal nanoparticles, which may form a new strategy for developing smart nano-biosensors and nano-devices.
