Strong enhancement of second-harmonic generation (SHG) response through multi-chiral centers and metal-coordination

The hydrothermal reaction of CdCl2 with L (L =trans-2,3-dihydro-2-(4'-pyridyl)-3-(3"-cyanophenyl)benzo[e]indole) in the presence of NaN3 and water offers a novel route to [Cd(L-N3)2(H2O)2]n, a 1D infinite molecular box with approximate dimensions 10.37 x 6.64 è; 1 is shown to display a very strong SHG response that is 80 times that observed for urea.     

A second-order nonlinear optical material prepared through in situ hydrothermal ligand synthesis

The in situ hydrothermal reactions of ZnCl(2) with benzonitrile, 2-amino-5-cyanopyridine, and trans-2,3-dihydro-2-(4' '-cyanophenyl)-benzo[e]indole in the presence of NaN(3) and water afford two 3D-diamond-like networks, (CN(4)-C(6)H(5))(2)Zn (1) and (NH(2)-C(5)H(3)N-CN(4))(2)Zn (2), and one 2D square grid network, [(CN(4)-C(6)H(4)-C(12)H(7)N-C(5)H(4)N)(2)Zn].1.5H(2)O (3), in which these ligands gradually involve a noncenter-A-D (acceptor-donor) system, a one-center-A-D system, and a two-center-A-D system, respectively. All three compounds crystallize in noncentrosymmetric space groups (I2d for 1 and 2 and Fdd2 for 3) and display strong second harmonic generation (SHG) responses. Among the three new complexes, 3 shows the largest SHG effect, which is about 50 and 500 times that of urea and KDP (KH(2)PO(4)), respectively. The two-center-A-D system (multicenter push-pull electronic effect) in 3 may be responsible for it having the largest SHG effect. Interestingly, the three compounds exhibit strong fluorescent emissions at different wavelengths, 1 and 2 with blue fluorescent emissions at 390 and 415 nm and 3 with yellow-green fluorescent emissions at 495 and 532 nm.     

Oligomerization of indole derivatives with incorporation of thiols

Two molecules of indole derivative, e.g. indole-5-carboxylic acid, reacted with one molecule of thiol, e.g. 1,2-ethanedithiol, in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid to yield adducts such as 3-[2-(2-amino-5-carboxyphenyl)-1-(2-mercaptoethylthio)ethyl]-1Hindole-5-carboxylic acid. Parallel formation of dimers, such as 2,3-dihydro-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5,5'-dicarboxylic acid and trimers, such as 3,3'-[2-(2-amino-5-carboxyphenyl) ethane-1,1-diyl]bis(1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid) of the indole derivatives was also observed. Reaction of a mixture of indole and indole-5-carboxylic acid with 2-phenylethanethiol proceeded in a regioselective way, affording 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-1H-indole-5-carboxylic acid. An additional product of this reaction was 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-2,3-dihydro-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5'-carboxylic acid, which upon standing in DMSO-d6 solution gave 3-[2-(2-aminophenyl)-1-(phenethylthio)ethyl]-1H,1'H-2,3'-biindole-5'-carboxylic acid. Structures of all compounds were elucidated by NMR, and a mechanism for their formation was suggested.

Ipso substitution as a route to benzo[c]quinolizines and 4-hydroxycoumarins

A convenient ipso substitution method for the preparation of benzo[c]quinolizine (2) and 4-hydroxy-3-(2'-pyridyl)coumarin (3) has been developed. The intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction of 3-oxo-2-(2'-pyridyl)-(2-halophenyl)propanoate (1) in refluxing xylenes gives initially benzo[c]quinolizine, while further heating results in the formation of 4-hydroxycoumarin. A mechanism has been proposed to rationalize the two competitive reaction pathways, and the role of HCl is discussed. Under optimized conditions, seven benzo[c]quinolizines and five coumarins were prepared in moderate to good yields.

The physical and chemical properties of the propellane compounds were investigated and a mechanism for the formation of the propellane compounds was discussed.

Synthesis, reactivity and complexation studies of N,S exo-heterodisubstituted o-carborane ligands. Carborane as a platform to produce the uncommon bidentate chelating (pyridine)N-C-C-C-s(H) motif

The synthesis of N,S-heterodisubstituted 1-(2'-pyridyl)-2-SR-1,2-closo-C2B10H10 compounds (R = Et, 2; R = (i)Pr, 3) has been accomplished starting from 1-(2'-pyridyl)-l,2-closo-C2B10H11 (1), and their partial deboronation reaction leading to the structurally chiral [7-(2'-pyridyl)-8-SR-7,8-nido-C2B9H10]-derivatives (R = Et, [4]-; R = (i)Pr, [5]-) has been studied. Capillary electrophoresis combined with the chiral selector alpha-cyclodextrin has permitted the separation of the electrophoretically pure racemic [7-(2'-pyridyl)-8-SR-7,8-nido-C2B9H11]- ions into two peaks each one corresponding to the interaction of one enantiomer with the alpha-cyclodextrin. The N,S-heterodisubstituted o-carborane containing a mercapto group, 1-(2'-pyridyl)-2-SH-1,2-closo-C2B10H10, 1, is one of the two examples of a rigid bidentate chelating (pyridine)N-C-C-C-S(H) motif having been structurally fully characterized. To study the potential of such a binding site, 1 has been tested as a ligand with metal ions requiring different coordination numbers, two (Au(+)) and four (Pd2+ and Rh+). The crystal structures of the Pd(II) and Au(I) complexes are reported. For the Pd(II) complex, 1 acts as a bidentate ligand whereas for Au(I), 1 acts as a monodentate ligand through the thiolate.     

Investigation of the products of the reaction of epichlorohydrin with aromatic amines

The action of hydrogen halides on 7a,8-dihydro-7H-azirino[1,2-]benz[g]indole gives 2-halomethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benz[g]indoles and 3-halo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinolines, which were converted to the corresponding N-nitroso derivatives and then to the isonitroso derivatives. 2-(Benzoxymethyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-benz[g]indole hydrohalides were obtained by heating 1-benzoyl-2-halomethyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-benz[g]indoles. The reaction of 3-halo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinolines with thionyl chloride at room temperature gives 3-halo-6-chloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[h]quinolines, while refluxing with thionyl chloride gives 6-chlorobenzo[h]quinoline.See [1] for communication XVI.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 342–346, March, 1973.

The synthesis of three new classes of heteroarenes, built through the sequential fusion of naphthalene, benzo/naphtho[b]oxepine and thiochromene rings with pyran and pyrimidine ring systems to give 'U and Z' shaped structural frameworks is reported. The methodology is based on the synthesis of pyran fused intermediates, 1-methylthio-3-oxo-5,6-dihydro-3H-benzo[f]chromene-2-carbonitrile (3), 4-methylthio-2-oxo-5,6-dihydro-2H-benzo/naphtho[b]pyrano[2,3-d]oxepine-3-carbonitriles (10, 20) and 4-methylthio-2-oxo-2,5-dihydrothiochromeno[4,3-b]pyran-3-carbonitriles (15) from the reaction of 2-tetralone, benzo/naphtho[b]oxepin-5-ones and thiochromen-4-ones with methyl 2-cyano-3,3-dimethylthioacrylate respectively. Further condensation of intermediates 3, 10, 20 and 15 with amidines led to the formation of tetracyclic 'U' shaped 4-amino-2-aryl-7,8-dihydro-5-oxo-5H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrans (8) and 'Z' shaped 4-amino-2-aryl-5-oxo-12,13-dihydro-5H-benzo/naphtho[b]oxepino[5,4-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrans (12, 22) and 4-amino-2-aryl-5-oxo-5,12-dihydrothiochromeno[4,3-b]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrans (17).

Structure (10) is a new heterocyclic system. The pyrimidine (1) and the diazepine (3) reacted with aryl isoselenocyanates at room temperature in solvents of low polarity to give zwitterion 1:1 addition compounds (7) and (12), respectively.
