1,3-Dipolare Additionen an 7-Methylthieno[2,3-c]pyridin-1,1-dioxid

1,3-Dipolar Additions to 7-Methylthieno[2,3-c]pyridine 1,1-dioxide 1,3-Dipolar additions of diazomethane, diazoethane, ethyl diazoacetate, phenyldiazomethane and phenyl azide to 7-methylthieno[2,3-c]pyridine 1,1-dioxide have been examined. The structures of the primary products e.g. 2, 8, 18, 25 have been established and their behaviour towards elevated temperatures and/or basic conditions was investigated. Under these conditions the primary products lost SO₂ or N₂ to yield e.g. 4 , 11 , 19 , 21 , 23 , 27 , 28 .     

Formation of assembled silver nanowires by reduction of silver thiolate in polyol/toluene medium

Reduction of silver nitrate in polyol/toluene biphasic medium containing dodecanethiol led to organised silver nanowires, results of an interaction between silver nanoparticles and the layered phase AgSC12H25.     

A Novel Approach towards 2,3,5-Trisubstituted Thiophenes via tandem Michael addition/intramolecular Knoevenagel condensation

Starting from the easily available, highly functionalized acetylenic ketories 4a–i (Scheme 1), novel 2,3,5-trisubstituted thiophenes 1a–i (Scheme 2) were synthesized in good yields using a tandem Michael-addition/intramolecular Knoevenagel-condensation strategy, featuring Cs₂CO₃/MgSO₄ (1:2) as an efficient base to effect the cyclization. Subsequent simple one-step transformations yielded 2,3-disubstituted thiophene-5-carbaidehydes 7a–c , carboxylic-acid derivatives 8, 9 , and 11 , and alcohol 10 (Scheme 3). These molecules constitute interesting novel thiophene-containing building blocks, useful for the preparation of low-molecular-weight compound libraries by combinatorial and parallel-chemistry techniques.

Spectroscopy of calcium deposited on large argon clusters

Spectroscopic experiments have been performed, providing emission and excitation spectra of calcium atoms trapped on argon clusters of average size 2 000. The two experimental spectra fall in the vicinity of the calcium resonance line ¹P ₁ → ¹S₀ at 422.9 nm. The excitation spectrum consists in two bands located on each side of the resonance line of the free calcium. In addition, Monte Carlo calculations, coupled to Diatomics-In-Molecule potentials are employed to simulate the absorption spectrum of a single calcium atom in the environment of a large argon cluster of average size 300. The theoretical absorption spectrum confirms the existence of two bands, and shows that these bands are characteristic of a calcium atom located at the surface of the argon cluster and correspond to the excited 4p orbital of calcium either perpendicular or parallel to the cluster surface. The precise comparison between the shape of the absorption spectrum and that of the fluorescence excitation spectrum shows different intensity ratios. This could suggest the existence of a non adiabatic energy transfer that quenches partly the fluorescence of trapped calcium. Another explanation, although less likely, could be a substantial dependence of the calcium oscillator strength according to the alignment of the calcium excited orbital with respect to the cluster surface. The emission spectrum always shows a band in the red of the resonance line which is assigned to the emission of calcium remaining trapped on the cluster. When exciting the blue band of the excitation spectrum, the emission spectrum shows a second, weak, component that is assigned to calcium atoms ejected from the argon clusters, indicating a competition between ejection and solvation.

Spectroscopic manifestations of phase changes in CaAr n clusters: finite size effects

The finite temperature optical spectroscopy of CaAr_n clusters in the range 6 n 146 is investigated using a Diatomics-In-Molecule (DIM) Hamiltonian and classical parallel tempering Monte Carlo simulations. The absorption spectrum is calculated in the vertical approximation at various temperatures between 2 K and 50 K. Several typical situations are reported. CaAr₆ shows a strong thermal broadening and shift of the spectral lines, possibly associated with isomerization. CaAr₁₃ only shows some broadening. CaAr₃₇ exhibits features corresponding to coexisting isomers at low temperature. Finally, the abrupt changes in the absorption spectrum in CaAr₁₄₆ at about 20 K are indicative of surface diffusion.     

Molecular dynamics simulations on [FePAH]+ π-complexes of astrophysical interest: anharmonic infrared spectroscopy

In this article, classical Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in the microcanonical ensemble are performed on neutral and cationic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) species, focusing on [FePAH](+)π-complexes. Their anharmonic mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectra in the classical approximation are derived. This approach allows us to describe the influence of the energy of a system on its IR spectrum in terms of band-shifts and broadenings. The MD simulations are performed on a potential energy surface (PES) described at the self-consistent-charge density functional tight-binding level of theory. The PES is benchmarked on DFT calculations, showing the validity of the approach for complexes of Fe(+) with PAHs larger than coronene (C(24)H(12)) that are of astrophysical interest. MD simulations at high temperature show the occurrence of the diffusion of the Fe cation on the surface of the PAH. It proceeds through the edge of the carbon skeleton which is the lowest energy pathway presenting barriers smaller than 1 eV. Although only qualitative information on the band broadenings can be obtained, we show that the dependence of the computed positions of the main bands of [C(24)H(12)](0/+)and [FeC(24)H(12)](+)π-complexes on temperature can be fit by linear laws. The spectral trends determined for [FeC(24)H(12)](+) are compared to those of N-substituted [C(23)NH(12)](+)and [SiC(24)H(12)](+)π-complexes of astrophysical interest.
