Organoborierung von alkinylstannanen: XVI. borol-synthese über die organoborierung von BIS(alknyl)Boranen

The organoboration of a new alkynylborane, diethylamino-bis(trimethylstannyl-ethynyl)borane gives 1-diethylamino-2,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)-3-diethylboryl-4-ethtylborol and 1-diethylamino-2-diethylboryl-3,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)-4-ethylborol. The stepwise reaction progress was monitored by NMR spectrocopy (¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, ¹¹⁹Sn) and the results were compared with those of the organoboration of bis(diethylamino)-trimethylstannylethynylborane.     

Zur Anionenselektivität von Distannylderivaten in Membranen

Anion-Selectivity of Distannyl Derivatives in Membranes A series of distannyl derivatives (2,2-bis(trimethylstannyl)-1,3-dithiane, 2,2-bis(tributylstannyl)-1,3-dithiane, hexamethyldistannane, hexabutyldistannane, hexaphenyldistannane, bis(triphenylstannyl)sulfide, o-bis(trimethylstannyl)benzene) has been studied in view of their applicability as anion-selective ionophores in solvent polymeric membranes. None of these compounds induces significant changes in the anion-selectivity pattern as compared with the membranes containing no organotin compound. Representatives with tributylstannyl groups, however, undergo chemical reactions leading to highly active anion ionophores of the type Bu₃SnX, several of which (e.g. Bu₃SnCl and Bu₃SnOH) may be present in equilibrium in the membrane phase depending on the measuring conditions.     

Carbazoles Stannylation

Stannylation of 3,6-dibromocarbazoles with lithium trimethylstannanide in THF was investigated. At treating 3,6-dibromo-9-alkylcarbazoles with lithium trimethylstannanide arise 3,6-bis(trimethylstannyl)-9-alkylcarbazoles. The 3,6-dibromocarbazole unsubstituted at nitrogen affords lithium 3,6-bis(trimethylstannyl)-carbazol-9-yl. The conditions of its generation, alkylation, and conversion into 3,6-bis(trimethylstannyl)carbazole are considered.     

Oxidative coupling as a potential route to polymers of group IV acetylenes

Bis tert-butyl-, trimethylsilyl- and trimethylgermyl-diacetylenes were prepared from the corresponding ethynyl Group IV compounds via oxidative coupling. Bis(trimethylstannyl)diacetylene could not be prepared by oxidative coupling, but was prepared via another technique. Coupling of diethynyldimethylsilane did not lead to the expected polymer, as cleavage of the silicon–ethynyl bond occurred. However, coupling of 1,3-bis(dimethylethynyl)disiloxane did lead to polymer containing alternating diacetylene and disiloxane units.     

The cobalt way to vitamin B6 : Regioselective construction of the tetrasubstituted pyridine nucleus by cobalt-catalyzed alkyne-nitrile cooligomerizations

Cocyclization of bis(trimethylsilyl)- and bis(trimethylstannyl)di-2-propynyl ether with acetonitrile provides a synthetic entry into 1,3-dihydro-6-methyl-4,7-bis(trimethylsilyl)- and bis(trimethylstannyl)-furo[3,4-c]pyridines. Regioselective electrophilic substitution of the respective silyl or stannyl groups allows for a regiocontrolled construction of tetrasubstituted pyridines. This method has been applied to a total synthesis of vitamin B₆.     

A convenient large scale synthesis of 2,6-dimethyl-4-(trimethylstannyl)pyridine

Reaction of phosphorus oxychloride with 2,6-dimethylpyridine N-oxide hydrochloride ( 1 ) gave a mixture of 2-(chloromethyl)-6-methylpyridine ( 2 ) and 4-chloro-2,6-dimethylpyridine ( 3 ). Treatment of this mixture with triethylamine converted 2 to the quaternary salt 4 which was separated by water extraction leaving 3 which was subsequently reacted with trimethylstannyl sodium to yield 2,6-dimethyl-4-(trimethylstannyl)pyridine ( 6 ).     

Applications of 2,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)thiophene. Synthesis of 3-methoxy-17α,-(5-iodothien-2-yl)-estra-1,3,5(10)trien-17β-ol

Monotransmetallation of 2,5-bis(trimethylstannyl)thiophene followed by the addition of estrone 3-methyl ether and iodine yields 3-methoxy-17α,-(5-iodothien-2-yl)estra-1,3,5(10)trien-17β-ol.     

A Rational Approach to Tetra-Functional Photo-Switches

α,ω-Bis(1,8-dichloroanthracen-10-yl)alkanes with (CH₂)_n-linker units (n=1–4) were synthesized starting from 1,8-dichloroanthracen-10(9H)-one. This was transformed into anthracenes with allyl, bromomethyl and propargyl substituents in position 10; these were converted in various C−C-bond formation reactions (plus hydrogenation), leading to two anthracene units flexibly linked by α,ω-alkandiyl groups. 1,2-Ethandiyl- and 1,3-propandiyl-linked derivatives were functionalized with ethynyl groups in positions 1, 8, 1’ and 8’, and these terminally functionalized by Me₃Sn groups using Me₂NSnMe₃. All linked bisanthracenes were subjected to UV light induced cyclomerization and a series of 9,10 : 9’,10’-photo-cyclomers were obtained. Their thermal cycloreversion and (repeated) switchability was demonstrated. 1,3-Bis{1,8-bis[(trimethylstannyl)ethynyl]anthracen-10-yl}propane served as model compound for photo-switchable acceptor molecules and its open and closed forms were characterized by NMR and DOSY experiments.     

Molecular structures of acetylene derivatives of tin

The geometry and force fields of the bis(trimethylstannyl)acetylene molecule (a conformer withD _3d symmetry corresponding to a minimum of the total energy of the molecule) were calculated by the RHF and MP2(fc) methods. The effective core potential in SBK form with the optimized 31G^* valence basis set was employed in the case of Sn atoms. The 6–31G^** and 6–311G^** basis sets were used for carbon and hydrogen atoms. Vibrational spectra of the light and perdeuterated isotopomers of bis(trimethylstannyl)acetylene were interpreted using the procedure of scaling the quantum-chemical force fields.

Vibrational spectra and ab initio analysis of tert-butyl, trimethylsilyl, and trimethylgermyl derivatives of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene. VI: Application of observed trends to stannyl derivatives

The effects of substitution of X = C by Si or Ge in X(CH(3))(3) moieties attached to the formal double bond of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene are examined. Regularities in observed trends of vibrational frequencies implicating the moieties containing the X atom, as the X atomic mass is increased, are extrapolated to X = Sn. The results of this extrapolation made it possible to assign the known experimental vibrational frequencies of 3,3-dimethyl-1-(trimethylstannyl)cyclopropene and 3,3-dimethyl-1,2-bis(trimethylstannyl)cyclopropene.     

Organoborierung von alkinylstannanen: XV. Synthese von 1,2-dihydro-1,2,5-disilaborepinen

The reaction between 1,2-diethynyl-tetramethyldisilane (1) and two equivalents of diethylaminotrimethylstannane (2) leads to 1,2-bis(trimethylstannylethynyl)-tetramethyldisilane (3). The new alkyne derivative 3 reacts, already at room temperature, with trialkylboranes, R₃B (5) (R = Me, Et), quantitatively to give 1,1,2,2-tetramethyl-3,7-bis(trimethylstannyl)-4,5,6-trialkyl-1,2-dihydro-1,2,5-disilaborepines (6). The reaction is much slower with R = Prⁱ which allows detection of intermediates by NMR spectroscopy. All products are characterized by ¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, ²⁹Si and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR data.     

Synthesis and mesomorphism behaviour of chalcones and pyrazoles type compounds as photo-luminescent materials

The following organic and organic–inorganic hybrid compounds were prepared as photo-luminescent materials following efficient and practical synthetic methods: 1,3-bis[4-(n-alkoxy)phenyl]-2-propen-1-one (where, n-alkoxy: O(CH₂)_nH, n = 6,7,8,9 or 10); 3,5-bis[4-(n-alkoxy)phenyl]-1H-pyrazole (where, n-alkoxy: O(CH₂)_nH, n = 6,7,8,9 or 10) (in case of n = 7, a mixture of 3,5-bis(4-heptyloxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole and 3,5-bis(4-heptyloxyphenyl)-4H-pyrazole was detected) and bis(3,5-bis [4-(n-alkoxy) phenyl]-1H-pyrazole) silver(I) nitrate (where, n-alkoxy: O(CH₂)_nH, n = 6,7,8,9 or 10). The prepared compounds have been characterised and their structures were elucidated depending upon (FTIR, UV-Vis, ¹HNMR, ¹³CNMR, 2D ¹H-¹H-COSY, 2D ¹H-¹³C-HSQC and mass spectra) in addition to molar conductivity measurements for silver(I) complexes. The mesomorphism behaviour of the prepared compounds was studied using polarised light optical microscopy and confirmed with differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray powder diffraction techniques. The studies showed that among all of these compounds only the pyrazole derivatives are liquid crystal materials. The luminescent properties of all the prepared compounds were also investigated which confirmed that all of these compounds are photo-luminescent in the crystalline solid state and in the mesophase.     

Dithienobenzimidazole‐containing conjugated donor–acceptor polymers: Synthesis and characterization

The synthesis of two new conjugated polymers based on the relatively under‐exploited monomer, 5,8‐dibromo‐2‐[5‐(2‐hexyldecyl)‐2‐thienyl]‐1H‐dithieno[3,2‐e:2′,3′‐g]benzimidazole (dithienobenzimidazole, DTBI ), and either 4,7‐bis[4‐hexyl‐5‐(trimethylstannyl)‐2‐thienyl]‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole ( BTD ) or 2,6‐bis(trimethylstannyl)‐4,8‐bis(5‐(2‐ethylhexyl) thiophen‐2‐yl)benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene ( BDT ) is described. The polymers were synthesized via Stille polycondensation and characterized by traditional methods (¹H NMR, gel‐permeation chromatography, matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry, thermal gravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and cyclic voltammetry). Prior to their synthesis, trimer structures were modeled by DFT calculations facilitating a further understanding of the systems' electronic and geometric structure. Polymers were titrated with acid and base to take advantage of their amphiprotic imidazole moiety and their optical response monitored with ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy. Finally, pristine polymer thin‐films were treated with acid and base to evaluate (de)protonation's effect on system electronics, but thin‐film degradation was encountered. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Adduct Formation Between γ-Cyclodextrin and the Bifluorophore 1,3-Bis(1-pyrenyl)propane

The complexation of the bifluorophore 1,3-bis(pyrenyl)propane with γ-cyclodextrin in water has been studied by means of steady state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. It was found that in the association with γ-cyclodextrin the propane chain of 1,3-bis(pyrenyl)propane folds and the two pyrene units enter the same cyclodextrin cavity where they form weakly bound ground state dimers, which upon excitation emit excimer fluorescence. In addition to this 1:1 excimer emitting complex, two more complexes were detected, which emit monomer pyrene fluorescence. One has 1:1 stoichiometry, i.e. isomeric to the previous complex, and the other, with 2:1 stoichiometry, is comprised of two γ-cyclodextrin units and one 1,3-bis(pyrenyl)propane.     

3,6-Di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinone complexes of copper(1) with bidentate bis(diphenylphosphine) ligands. Synthesis, structures, and properties

New mononuclear 3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinone complexes of copper(1) with bis(diphenylphosphine) ligands were synthesized: (DBSQ)Cu(dppe) (1) (DBSQ=3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinone and dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane), (DBSQ)Cu(dppp) (2) (dppp=1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane), (DBSQ)Cu(dppn) (3) (dppn=2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl), and (DBSQ)Cu(dppfc) (4) (dppfc=1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene). The compositions and structures of complexes1–4 were characterized by elemental analysis and electronic absorption, IR, and ESR spectroscopy. The molecular structures of complexes3 and4 were established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The reactions of elimination and replacement of neutral ligands in the coordination sphere of the complexes were studied by ESR spectroscopy. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Bis(trifluoromethyl)-containing 1-azatricycloheptanes

Methods for the synthesis ofanti-3-halo-7, 7-bis(trifluoromethyl)-1-azatricyclo[2.2.1.0^2,6]heptanes by conjugated halogenation of 3,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-ene have been developed. Hydrohalogenation of the synthesized 1-azatricyclic compounds gives exclusively 6,7-dihalo-3,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptanes. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Ab Initio Study of Ring Flipping of the Overcrowded Peri-Substituted Naphthalenes

Ab inintio molecular orbital and density functional theory method were used to investigate the structural and dynamic behavior of 1,8-di-tert-butyl naphthalene (1), 1,8-bis(trimethylsilyl)naphthalene (2), 1,8-bis(trimethylgermyl)naphthalene (3), and 1,8-bis(trimethylstannyl)naphthalene (4). HF/3-21G//HF/3-21G results revealed that the ring flipping barrier height of compound 1–4 is 92.59, 32.13, 26.76, and 15.46 kJ mol^?1 respectively. The obtained results show that the transition state structure for ring flipping of the bulky-groups is in a planar form with naphthalene ring. Contrary to compound 1, the ring flipping of compounds 2–4 occurred easily at room temperature. Also, MP2/3-21G//HF/3-21G energy calculation, show that the enantiomerization energy of compounds 1–4 are 97.99, 33.24, 26.80, and 15.38 kJ·mol^?1 respectively. The required energy for ring inversion of compounds 1–4 are 85.09, 27.26, 21.54, and 10.21 kJ mol^?1 respectively, as calculated by B3LYP/3-21G//HF/3-21G method. It can be concluded that the lower energy barrier of the ring flipping of compounds 2–4 is related to the increasing of the bond lengths of Si—C, Ge—C, and Sn—C, in contrast to C—C bond.     

Synthesis of 1,2-bis(1-boraadamant-2-yl)ethane derivatives. Crystal structure of the racemic form

Condensation of triallylborane with octa-1,7-diyne followed by treatment of the reaction mixture with methanol afforded a mixture of stereoisomeric 1,4-bis(3-methoxy-3-bora-bicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-en-7-yl)butanes (1a,b). Hydroboration of the latter with a solution of BH₃ in THF yielded the tetrahydrofuran complex of 1,2-bis(1-boraadamant-2-yl)ethane (2) as a mixture of diastereomers. Pure racemate (2a) was obtained by crystallization from the reaction mixture and it was converted into the pyridine complex of 1,2-bis(1-boraadamant-2-yl)ethane (3). The structure of the latter was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. Complex2a was converted into the corresponding racemic 1,2-bis(1-hydroxyadamant-2-yl)ethane (4a) by the carbonylation-oxidation reaction. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Aminoethynyl‐silanes, ‐germanes and ‐stannanes: novel organometallic‐substituted enamines via 1,1‐organoboration

The reactions of diethylaminoethynyl(trimethyl)silane (1), bis(diethylaminoethynyl)methylsilane (2), diethylaminoethynyl(trimethyl)germane (3), dimethylaminoethynyl(triethyl)germane (4), diethylaminoethynyl(trimethyl)stannane (5) and methyl(phenyl)aminoethynyl(trimethyl)stannane (6) with trialkylboranes [BEt₃ (7b), BPr₃ (7c), BⁱPr₃ (7d) and 9‐alkyl‐9‐borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes 9‐Me‐9‐BBN (8a) and 9‐Et‐9‐BBN (8b)] were studied. The alkynes 1 and 2 did not react even with boiling BEt₃, whereas the reactions of 3–6 afforded mainly novel enamines [(E)‐1‐amino‐1‐trialkylgermyl‐2‐dialkylboryl‐alkenes (9, 10), (E)‐1‐diethylamino‐1‐trimethylstannyl‐2‐dialkylboryl‐alkenes (11, 12), (E)‐1‐methyl(phenyl)amino‐1‐trimethylstannyl‐2‐dialkylboryl‐alkenes (13, 14)]. This particular stereochemistry is unusual for products from 1,1‐organoboration reactions, indicating a special influence of the amino group. The starting materials and products were characterized by multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ²⁹Si, ¹¹⁹Sn NMR). Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Transfer of organic groups to gold using organotin compounds

PhSnMe₃ undergoes transmetallation with [AuCl(EPh₃)] (E = P, As) in refluxing toluene forming [AuPh(EPh₃)] and Me₃SnCl. The analogous ⁿBu derivative does not transmetallate, even under forcing conditions. Similarly, 1-(trimethylstannyl)naphthalene and 1-(trimethylstannyl)-8-iodonaphthalene react with [AuCl(PPh₃)] to give good yields of the corresponding naphthylgold(I) complexes which were spectroscopically and structurally characterised.
