Synthesis of Novel Bithiophene-Substituted Heterocycles Bearing Carbonitrile Groups

Symmetrical and unsymmetrical bithiophene-substituted heterocycles bearing carbonitriles including imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine, benzimidazole, and pyridine derivatives have been synthesized via different synthetic protocols. The bithiophene bis-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives 3a,b were achieved in three steps starting from 2-acetyl-5-bromothiophene. Suzuki coupling reaction of 2a with 5-formylthiophen-2-ylboronic acid forms the formyl derivative 5, which by condensation with 3,4-diaminobenzonitrile in the presence of sodium bisulfite furnishes the unsymmetrical bithiophene derivative6. The bis-benzimidazole derivative 8 was obtained via hexabutylditin-mediated homocoupling of 5-bromothiophene-2-carboxaldehyde, while the benzimidazole derivatives 12a,b were prepared via the formyl derivatives 11a,b, a product of Velsmier formylation reaction of 10a,b. Two synthetic protocols for the aryl/hetaryl-2,2′-bithiophene derivative 14 have also been presented. In addition, the guanyl hydrazones of bithiophenes, 16 and 17, were prepared from bis(tri-n-butylstannyl)-2,2′-bithiophene through a Stille coupling reaction followed by a condensation step.

A study on the Stille reaction of alkenyl iodides and stannanes with structural resemblance to retrosynthetic fragments of a projected total synthesis of the marine alkaloid zoanthamine was carried out. A range of reaction conditions was examined, and a protocol developed by Corey utilizing excess copper(I) chloride and lithium chloride was found to be most efficient. The methodology was successfully applied to join two major fragments of the zoanthamine skeleton.     

Functionalization of silicon nanoparticles via hydrosilylation with 1-alkenes

Studies focusing on the functionalization of the surface of free silicon nanoparticles are presented. This functionalization is applied to hydrogen-terminated silicon nanoparticles to evaluate how far the well-known solution-phase chemistry of thermal-, radical-, Lewis acid- and UV light-mediated hydrosilylation can be applied to the surface chemistry of silicon nanoparticles. The efficiencies of hydrosilylation for thermal-, radical- and Lewis acid-mediated reactions on silicon nanoparticles surfaces, deduced from the intensity of the ν(Si–H) absorption, are found to be comparable.

Photoelectron spectroscopic investigation of phenyl isocyanato silanes

Summary The HeI photoelectron spectra of compounds C₆H₅(CH₃) _n Si(NCO)_3–n were recorded and analysed using semiempirical AM1 quantum chemical calculations. The interaction between phenyl and pseudohalide groups is minimal. The splitting of bands originated from pseudohalide groups is not sensitive to the Si-N-C bond angle.

Cationic complexes of dirhodium(II) with 1,8-naphthyridine: Catalysis of reactions involving silanes

The synthesis of cationic dirhodium(II) complexes by partial or total substitution of the acetate groups of [Rh₂(OAc)₄] with different homoleptic neutral bidentate ligands has been attempted. The ligand 1,8-naphthyridine gave the best results: substitution of one as well as of all four acetate ligands is possible, giving rise to mono-, di- and tetra-cationic complexes. One of the resulting tetrasubstituted complexes has been structurally characterised and found to exhibit the expected lantern-shaped structure. All cationic complexes have been investigated as catalysts in different reactions involving silanes: promising results have been obtained, particularly in the silylformylation of alkynes.     

Oligothiophenes. Part 4: Formation and characterization of stable radicals from novel bis- and tris-bithiophene methanes

Two star-shaped structures of the bis- and tris-thiophene methane types have been synthesized in a facile two-step synthesis. The resulting bis- and tris-thiophene methanes readily react with oxygen both as solids and in solution to yield stable radicals. The formed radicals, which were investigated using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), were found to be residing on the central carbons of the bis- and tris-thiophene methanes.

Chiral organochlorosilanes derived from terpenes: diastereoselective hydrosilylation of methylene bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes with HSiMenCln − 2 (n=0-2)

The H₂PtCl₆ catalysed hydrosilylation of the terpenes (+)-α-fenchene (XI), (−)-2-methylene bornane (XII), (+)-camphene (XIII) and (−)-3-methylene fenchane (XIV) using HSiMe₂Cl or HSiMeCl₂ proceeds with high regioselectively and in some cases, with high diastereoselectivity. KF-assisted oxidation of the hydrosilylation products gives predominately endo-terpene alcohols. The alcohols have inverted endo/exo ratios to those formed by oxidative hydroboration. Reaction of XIV with HSiMe₂Cl or HSiMeCl₂ is accompanied by a clean rearrangement of the isocamphane skeleton into (+)-2-methylene bornane (XII) prior to hydrosilylation.

Functionalization of Silicon Nanoparticles with Hydrogen Fluoride and Olefins Silicon nanoparticles (Si‐NPs) from a hot wall reactor (size: 50–300 nm) were freed of surface‐bound SiO_x with anhydrous HF, leaving H‐terminated Si‐NPs. Thermally induced hydrosilylation with 1‐octene lead to the formation of surface bound octyl layers. Using anhydrous HF instead of 40 % hydrofluoric acid leads more efficiently to alkylated Si‐NPs.
