Synthesis and properties of thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine 1-oxides

Synthesis and properties of hitherto unknown thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine 1-oxides are described. For example, the reaction of 6-chloro-1,3-dimethyl-5-nitrouracil (I) with methyl thioglycolate in the presence of excess triethylamine afforded 2-methoxycarbonyl-4,6-dimethylthiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine-5,7-(4H,6H)dione 1-oxide (IIIa), which is a versatile intermediate for the preparation of various thiazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine derivatives.     

High molecular weight broad band-gap polymers based on indolo[3,2-b]carbazole and thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole derivatives for solar cells

Two broad band-gap high molecular weight polymers, poly[(5,11-di(9’-heptadecanyl)-indolo[3,2-b]carbazole-alt-2,5-bis(3-n-octylthiophene-2-yl)-thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole (PICzOTzTz) and poly[(5,11-di(9’-heptadecanyl)-indolo[3,2-b]carbazole-alt-2,5-bis(3-n-n-dodecylthiophene-2-yl)-thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole]) (PICzDOTzTz), consisting of indolo[3,2-b]carbazole (ICz) and thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole (TzTz) derivatives were synthesized by Suzuki polycondensation. Their physical, electrochemical and optical properties were characterized in details. The thermogravimetric analysis displayed high thermal stability, and 5% degradation temperatures of PICzOTzTz and PICzDOTzTz were 427 and 435°C, respectively. The optical band gaps of PICzOTzTz and PICzDOTzTz were 2.13 and 2.07 eV, respectively. The hole mobilities of PICzOTzTz and PICzDOTzTz were investigated by the space charge limited current (SCLC) method, which gave the mobility values of 7.21 × 10^–5 and 1.57 × 10^–4 cm²/(V s) for each polymer, respectively. Through the photo-voltaic characterization in polymer solar cells, they showed that the power conversion efficiencies of PICzOTzTz and PICzDOTzTz were 0.64 and 0.99%, respectively.

Liquid-crystalline behaviour of some bis(4-alkyloxyphenyl) thiazolo [5,4-d] dithiazoles

The preparation of liquid-crystalline 2,5-bis(4-alkyloxyphenyl) thiazolo [5,4-d] dithiazoles (ATT_n), in which the alkyl group is C_nH_{2n + 1} (where n = 1 to 10, 12), has been described. Mesomorphic properties and phase transitions as determined by polarizing hot stage microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry are discussed as a function of the number of carbon atoms in the alkyloxy chain. The exhibition of tilted smectic phases (smectic C and smectic I) by these compounds is an interesting feature since there is no significant central dipole moment transverse to these molecules.

Thermal and kinetic analyses of 2,5-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole

Thermal behavior and UV–Vis absorption properties of 2,5-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole were investigated in the present study. It was found that decomposition occurs in two stages which correspond to removal of both phenolic rings and degradation of remaining core structure, respectively. After the characterization of decomposition stages, apparent activation energy values of each stage were calculated using model-free isoconversional methods (FWO and KAS). Apparent activation energies of decomposition stages are determined by both methods. Their averages are calculated as 98.232 and 123.253 kJ mol^?1 in consecutive order. UV–Vis absorption properties of this compound have been determined with using different solvents.

Diastereoisomeric dinuclear ruthenium complexes of 2,5-di(2-pyridyl)thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole

The first metal complexes of 2,5-di(2-pyridyl)thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole (5) are described. X-Ray crystal structures are reported for the free ligand 5, a dinuclear copper complex 6 and the two diastereoisomers, 7meso and 7rac, of the dinuclear bis(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium complex. The two diastereoisomers of 7 and the 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine analogue 8 are readily separated by cation exchange chromatography. 1H NMR and visible absorption spectra and electrochemical data for the four dinuclear ruthenium complexes reveal that these have relatively small HOMO-LUMO energy gaps and exhibit relatively weak metal-metal interactions.     

Isothiazoles. III. Synthesis of isothiazolo [5,4-d] pyrimidines

5-Amino-3-methylisothiazole-4-carbonitrile 2 was prepared by oxidation of 3-amino-2-cyano-thiocrotonamide 1 .

Regioselectively Synthesis of Thiazolo[4,5‐a]acridines and Oxazolo[5,4‐a]thiazolo[5,4‐j]acridines via Multicomponent Domino Reactions

A regioselective three‐component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone and benzo[d]thiazol‐5‐amine in HOAc under microwave irradiation has been developed. A series of new thiazolo‐fused benzo[h]acridines were synthesized with high chemical yields in this one‐pot reaction. The resulting thiazolo‐fused acridines were employed to further react with aldehydes and ammonium acetate to give polycyclic‐fused oxazolo[5,4‐a]thiazolo[5,4‐j]acridines. The present synthesis shows several advantages, such as operational simplicity, fast reaction rates, which makes it a useful and attractive process of library generation for drug discovery.     

Fullerene derivative acceptors for high performance polymer solar cells

Polymer solar cells (PSCs) are composed of a blend film of a conjugated polymer donor and a soluble fullerene derivative acceptor sandwiched between a PEDOT?:?PSS coated ITO positive electrode and a low workfunction metal negative electrode. The conjugated polymer donor and the fullerene derivative acceptor are the key photovoltaic materials for high performance PSCs. For the acceptors, although [6,6]-phenyl-C(61)-butyric acid methyl ester (PC(60)BM) and its corresponding C(70) derivative PC(70)BM are dominantly used as the acceptors in PSC at present, several series of new fullerene derivatives with higher-lying LUMO energy level and better solubility were reported in recent years for further improving the power conversion efficiency of the PSCs. In this perspective paper, we reviewed the recent research progress on the new fullerene derivative acceptors, including various PC(60)BM-like C(60) derivatives, PC(60)BM bisadduct, PC(70)BM bisadduct, indene-C(60) bisadduct and indene-C(70) bisadduct, trimetallic nitride endohedral fullerenes and other C(60) derivatives with multi side chains. The synthesis and physicochemical properties of PC(60)BM and PC(70)BM were also introduced considering the importance of the two fullerene acceptors.

All the novel spiro compounds, in moderate yields, were characterized thoroughly by infrared, NMR, mass spectromentry, and elemental analysis together with x-ray crystallographic analysis.
