Functionalization of C‐H Bonds by Photoredox Catalysis

Visible‐light photoredox catalysis has been successfully used in the functionalization of inert C?H bonds including C(sp²)‐H bonds of arenes and C(sp³)‐H bonds of aliphatic compounds over the past decade. These transformations are typically promoted by the process of single‐electron‐transfer (SET) between substrates and photo‐excited photocatalyst upon visible light irradiation (household bulbs or LEDs). Compared with other synthetic strategies, such as the transition‐metal catalysis and traditional radical reactions, visible‐light photoredox approach has distinct advantages in terms of operational simplicity and practicability. Versatile direct functionalization of inert C(sp²)‐H and C(sp³)‐H bonds including alkylation, trifluoromethylation, arylation and amidation, has been achieved using this practical strategy.     

H‐transfer reaction during decomposition of N‐(2‐methylpropyl)‐ N‐(1‐diethylphosphono‐2,2‐dimethylpropyl)‐N‐oxyl (SG1)‐based alkoxyamines

Thermal decomposition of four tertiary N‐(2‐methylpropyl)‐N‐(1‐diethylphosphono‐2,2‐dimethylpropyl)‐N‐oxyl (SG1)‐based alkoxyamines (SG1‐C(Me)₂‐C(O)‐OR, R = Me, tBu, Et, H) has been studied at different experimental conditions using ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopies. This experiment represents the initiating step of methyl methacrylate polymerization. It has been shown that H‐transfer reaction occurs during the decomposition of three alkoxyamines in highly degassed solution, whereas no products of H‐transfer are detected during decomposition of SG1‐MAMA alkoxyamine. The value of the rate constant of H‐transfer for alkoxyamines 1 (SG1‐C(Me)₂‐C(O)‐OMe) and 2 ( SG1‐C(Me)₂‐C(O)‐OtBu) has been estimated as 1.7 × 10³ M^?1s^?1. The high influence of oxygen on decomposition mechanism is found. In particular, in poorly degassed solutions, nearly quantitative formation of oxidation product has been observed, whereas at residual pressure of 10^?5 mbar, the main products originate from H‐atom transfer reaction. The acidity of the reaction medium affects the decomposition mechanism suppressing the H‐atom transfer. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2013     

Proton n.m.r. spin-tickling studies of 13C-labeled compounds. The correlation of J(C,H) and J(H,H)

A tabulation has been compiled for twenty ¹³C? H coupling constants of various carboxylic acids and includes ²J(C,H), ³J(C,H) and ⁴J(C,H) values of olefins (both cis and trans); ³J(C,H), ⁴J(C,H) and ⁵J(C,H) values of aromatics; ³J(C,H) and ⁴J(C,H) values of acetylenes; and ²J(C,H) and ³J(C,H) values of rigid aliphatics. This tabulation has been completed in the present study by the spin-tickling proton n.m.r. study of ¹³C-carboxyl-endo-1,2,3,4,7,7-hexachloronorbornene-5-carboxylic acid, which has established that the ²J(C,H) value is negative and the ³J(C,H) values (both cis and trans) are positive in this system. A plot of these twenty J(C,H) values vs the corresponding J(H,H) values of geometrically equivalent model systems (where there is a proton in place of a carboxyl group) gives a correlation coefficient of 0·975 (with a slope of 0·62), indicating that carbon–proton and proton–proton couplings operate by similar mechanisms throughout this broad series of structural types.

Amides of 4-aryl(hetaryl)-2-pyrrolidone-3-carboxylic acids have been prepared via ammonolysis of the corresponding esters of pyrrolidone carboxylic acids. The products structure has been characterized by means of IR, ¹H NMR, ¹H–¹³C HMQC, and HMBC spectroscopy.     

Substituent effects on 13C and 1H chemical shifts in 3-benzylidene-2,4-pentanediones

Substituent effects on the ¹³C and ¹H chemical shifts have been studied for derivatives of 3-benzylidene-2, 4-pentanedione. A significant correlation has been found between chemical shifts of the Z carbonyl group (C-2) and Hammett constants, while no correlation has been found for the E carbonyl group (C-4). Attempts have been made to determine the structural factors which influence these effects. The conformation of 3-benzylidene-2, 4-pentanediones has been determined by ¹³C and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Verflüchtigung von Radionukliden im Luftstrom und Ihre Abscheidung im Temperaturgradientrohr

The Hg-, Cd- and UO₂-targets bombarded by protons have been treated using the sublimation and evaporation techniques. The Hg and Cd nuclei have been separated from non-isotopic products by distillation in the hydrogen stream. The separation of the groups of Re, Os, Ir, Mo, Tc and Ru oxides has been carried out in the air stream. No monotonic temperature dependence of the Tl, Ru, Mo, Tc, Te, Pb and Po release has been observed in the oxidation of the UO₂-ceramics in the air stream. The values of (−ΔH _a ⁰ ) of volatile products adsorbed on quartz have been determined from the chromatographic data. The relation between the adsorption heat (−ΔH _a ⁰ ) and the standard sublimation heat (ΔH ₂₉₈ ⁰ subl.) has been found to be linear, i.e. −ΔH _a ⁰ =(4.04±1.97)+(0.69±0.04)ΔH ₂₉₈ ⁰ (subl.). As an example of the thermochromatographic generator of isotopes, the separation of⁹⁹Mo to^99mTc has been investigated.      

Synthesis,Spectroscopic Characterization,and In Vitro Antimicrobial Potency of Sulfur-Bonded Complexes of Boron(III)

The present article describes the synthesis and characterization of tetracoordinated boron (III) complexes with monobasic bidentate ligands (L ¹ H, L ² H, L ³ H, L ⁴ H, L ⁵ H, and L ⁶ H) having the general formulae PhB(L)(OH) and PhB(L) ₂ . The 1:1 and 1:2 reactions of phenyl boronic acid with monobasic bidentate ligands resulted in the formation of colored solids. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, molecular weight determinations, and IR and NMR ( ¹ H, ¹³ C and ¹¹ B) spectroscopy, as well as UV-vis spectral studies. Based on these studies, a tetrahedral geometry has been proposed for the resulting complexes. The ligands, along with their complexes, have been screened in vitro against a number of pathogenic fungal and bacterial strains. The studies indicate that the boron chelates are more potent than the parent ligands.

Compounds 4 are obtained in modest to good yields and their structural identification was established by ¹H NMR, ¹H COSY, ¹³C NMR and ¹H‐¹³C COSY. A mechanism has been proposed to rationalize the formation of the ylidene furanone.

Carboxy Group as a Remote and Selective Chelating Group for C−H Activation of Arenes

The first example of carboxy group assisted, remote‐selective C(sp²)?H activation with a Pd^II catalyst has been developed and proceeds through a possible κ² coordination of the carboxy group, thus suppressing the ortho‐C?H activation through κ¹ coordination. Besides meta‐C?H olefination, direct meta‐arylation of hydrocinnamic acid derivatives with low‐cost aryl iodides has been achieved for the first time. These findings may motivate the exploration of novel reactivities of the carboxy assisted C?H activation reactions with intriguing selectivities.     

Facile iterative synthesis, spectral characterization, electron microscopic study and thermogravimetric analysis of phosphorus dendron with bisphenol A at the focal point

A facile iterative synthesis of a phosphorus dendron with bisphenol A at the focal point by following the divergent procedure is described. The phosphorus dendron peripherally functionalized with phenolic OH group has been accomplished in a very versatile simple fashion, using the Schiff condensation and nucleophilic substitution reactions using P(S)Cl₃, P(O)Cl₃, 3-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 3-aminopheno. The structures of intermediate dendrons were confirmed by IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P), LC-Mass and C, H, N analysis. The structure of the final dendron (5) was confirmed by IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P), MALDI-TOF-MS, and C, H, N analysis. The thermal stability of the resulting functionalized dendron has been checked by TGA/DTA analysis. The surface topography observed by scanning electronic microscopic study (SEM) gives the reminiscent of the dendritic structure.     

Theoretical evaluation of the possibility of hydrogen release during the thermal activation of hydrated magnesium oxide surfaces

The hydrated MgO surface has been simulated by the linear atomic chain (MgOHV″_MgHOMg)²⁺ and the total energy of this system has been evaluated ab initio as a function of the HH (or OH) distance. A symmetrical motion of both hydrogen nuclei with respect to the central Mg²⁺ vacancy was assumed. Two potential minima are found which correspond to systems that can be formally described as (2Mg²⁺, 2OH^?) (I, lower energy system) and (2Mg²⁺, 2O^?, H₂) (II, lying 140.9 kcal above I). These theoretical calculations show that the reaction 2OH^? → 2O^? + H₂ will occur on MgO with a thermal activation energy of about 145.0 kcal, while the chemisorption of hydrogen as hydrexyls on O^? sites has a very low activation energy (4.1 kcal).     

A 13C and 1H NMR investigation of the bonding in norbornenyl complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II)

The modes of bonding in several norbornenyl complexes of palladinm(II) and platinum(II) has been investigated by both ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Analysis of internal ¹H¹H, ¹³C¹H, and ¹⁹⁵Pt¹³C coupling constants indicate considerable distortion of the norbornenyl ligand in these complexes relative to organic norbornenes. The nature of this distortion is compatible with a π-homoallylic bonding scheme.     

Coordination chemistry of oxovanadium(V) complexes with active Schiff bases: synthetic,spectral, and antimicrobial approach

The Schiff bases, 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarbothioamide (L¹H), 3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarboxamide (L²H), 5,6-dimethyl-3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarbothioamide (L³H), and 5,6-dimethyl-3-(indolin-2-one)hydrazinecarboxamide (L⁴H), have been synthesized by the condensation of ¹ H-indol-2,3-dione and 5,6-dimethyl-1H-indol-2,3-dione with the corresponding hydrazinecarbothioamide and hydrazinecarboxamide, respectively. The complexes of oxovanadium and ligands have been characterized by elemental analyses, melting points, conductance measurements, molecular weight determinations, and IR, ¹H NMR and UV spectral studies. These studies showed that the ligands coordinated to the oxovanadium in a monobasic bidentate fashion through oxygen or sulfur and the nitrogen donor system. Thus, penta-and hexacoordinated environment around the vanadium atom has been proposed. All the complexes and their parent organic moieties have been screened for their biological activity on several pathogenic fungi and bacteria and were found to possess appreciable fungicidal and bactericidal properties. The article was submitted by the authors in English.     

Synthesis of Bicyclo[n.1.0]alkanes by a Cobalt‐Catalyzed Multiple C(sp3)−H Activation Strategy

A cobalt‐catalyzed dual C(sp³)−H activation strategy has been developed and it provides a novel strategy for the synthesis of bicyclo[4.1.0]heptanes and bicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes. A key to the success of this reaction is the conformation‐induced methylene C(sp³)−H activation of the resulting cobaltabicyclo[4.n.1] intermediate. In addition, the synthesis of bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane from pivalamide, by a triple C(sp³)−H activation, has also been demonstrated.     

Multinuclear NMR study of lanthanide(III) complexes of 1,2-PDTA in aqueous solution

The complexation of lanthanide(III) cations with 1,2-propanediaminetetraacetate (1,2-PDTA) in aqueous solution has been investigated by ¹⁰Na, ³⁵Cl, ²H and ¹¹O NMR shift measurements. It has been shown that the contact shifts are dominant for ¹⁷O, ¹⁶Cl and ²H (only for the heavier lanthanide series) and the pseudocontact shifts are dominant for ²⁵Na. It is suggested that the 1,2-PDTA ligand is bound pentadentately via the two nitrogens and the three carboxylates for the lighter lanthanide complexes, hexdentately via the two nitrogens and the four carboxylates for the heavier ones. The numbers of the water coordinated were determined. The small amount of chloride anion in inner coordination sphere was observed.     

An iron(ii)-based metalloradical system for intramolecular amination of C(sp2)–H and C(sp3)–H bonds: synthetic applications and mechanistic studies

A catalytic system for intramolecular C(sp²)–H and C(sp³)–H amination of substituted tetrazolopyridines has been successfully developed. The amination reactions are developed using an iron-porphyrin based catalytic system. It has been demonstrated that the same iron-porphyrin based catalytic system efficiently activates both the C(sp²)–H and C(sp³)–H bonds of the tetrazole as well as azide-featuring substrates with a high level of regioselectivity. The method exhibited an excellent functional group tolerance. The method affords three different classes of high-value N-heterocyclic scaffolds. A number of important late-stage C–H aminations have been performed to access important classes of molecules. Detailed studies (experimental and computational) showed that both the C(sp²)–H and C(sp³)–H amination reactions involve a metalloradical activation mechanism, which is different from the previously reported electro-cyclization mechanism. Collectively, this study reports the discovery of a new class of metalloradical activation modes using a base metal catalyst that should find wide application in the context of medicinal chemistry, drug discovery and industrial applications.
