Triphenylene silanes for direct surface anchoring in binary mixed self-assembled monolayers

New triphenylene-based silanes 2-(ω-(chlorodimethylsilyl)-n-alkyl)-3,6,7,10,11-penta-m-alkoxytriphenylene 4 (Tm-Cn) with n = 8 or 9 and m = 7, 8, 9, 10, or 11 were synthesized, and their self-assembly behavior in the liquid state and at glass and silicon oxide surfaces was investigated. The mesomorphic properties of triphenylene silanes 4 (Tm-Cn) and their precursors 3 (Tm-Cn) were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarizing optical microscopy (POM), and X-ray diffraction. From the small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) regime, a preferential discotic lamellar mesophase can be deduced, and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) highlights the liquid-like characteristics of the alkyl side chains. To transfer these bulk structural properties to thin films, self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) were obtained by adsorption from solution and characterized by water contact angle measurements, null ellipsometry, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Employing the concentration as an additional degree of freedom, binary SAMs of 2-(ω-(chlorodimethylsilyl)-undecyl)-3,6,7,10,11-penta-decyloxytriphenylene 4 (T10-C11) were coassembled with chlorodecyldimethylsilane or chlorodimethyloctadecylsilane, and their capability as model systems for organic templating was evaluated. The structure of the resulting binary mixed SAMs was analyzed by water contact angle measurements, null ellipsometry, and X-ray reflectivity (XRR) in combination with theoretical modeling by a multidimensional Parratt algorithm and AFM. The composition dependence of film thickness and roughness can be explained by a microscopic model including the steric hindrance of the respective molecular constituents.     

Halodiazophosphonates, a new class of diazo compounds for the diastereoselective intermolecular Rh(II) catalyzed cyclopropanation

(Halodiazomethyl)phosphonates 2A-C have been generated by a one-pot procedure via a clean, efficient, and rapid deprotonation/electrophilic halogenation sequence from diethyl diazomethylphosphonate 1 (EDP). Subsequent intermolecular Rh(II)-catalyzed cyclopropanation afforded the corresponding halocyclopropylphosphonates 3-10 in moderate to high yields and high diastereomeric ratios. Catalyst loadings down to 0.1 mol % as well as clean and selective product formation were achieved.     

A multicomponent synthetic strategy for two-carbon-tethered 1,3-oxathiole-indole pairs

An efficient methodology for the multicomponent synthesis of new and highly functionalized heterocycles containing 1,3-oxathiole and indole units which are connected through an sp(2)-C(2) bridge has been developed. This domino reaction enables successful assembly of three new sigma bonds including a C-S bond and a C-O bond in a one-pot operation. Features of this strategy include mild conditions, convenient one-pot operation, and high stereo- and regioselectivity.     

Palladium-catalyzed oxidative carbonylation of benzylic C-H bonds via nondirected C(sp3)-H activation

A new strategy for generating benzylpalladium reactive species from toluenes via nondirected C(sp(3))-H activation has been developed. This led to construction of an efficient Pd-catalyzed reaction protocol for the oxidative carboxylation of benzylic C-H bonds to form substituted 2-phenylacetic acid esters and derivatives from inexpensive, commercially available starting materials.

Phase separation of the reaction system induced by CO2 and conversion enhancement for the esterification of acetic acid with ethanol in ionic liquid

The effect of CO2 on the phase behavior of the reaction system and equilibrium conversion for esterification of acetic acid and ethanol in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate, [bmim][HSO4]) was studied at 60.0 degrees C up to 15 MPa. It was demonstrated that there was only one phase in the reaction system in the absence of CO2. The reaction system underwent two-phase-->three-phase-->two-phase transitions with increasing pressure. The pressure of CO2 or the phase behavior of the system affected the equilibrium conversion of the reaction markedly. As the pressure was less than 3.5 MPa, there were two phases in the system, and the equilibrium conversion increased as pressure was increased. In the pressure range of 3.5-9.5 MPa, there existed three phases, and the equilibrium conversion increased more rapidly with increasing pressure. As the pressure was higher than 9.5 MPa, the reaction system entered another two-phase region and the equilibrium conversion was nearly independent of pressure. The total equilibrium conversion was 64% without CO2 and could be as high as 80% as pressure was higher than 9.0 MPa. The apparent equilibrium constants (K(x)) in different phases were also determined, showing that the K(x) in the middle phase or top phase was much greater than that in the bottom phase.

Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy of amino acids adsorbed on metal surfaces

Fourier transform infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (FT-IRAS) has been used to study the orientation and coordination of glycine, L-phenylalanine and L-histidine on gold and copper surfaces. It was found that glycine and L-histidine were weakly adsorbed (physisorbed) in the zwitterionic form on gold. The surface chemical bonding of L-histidine and L-phenylalanine to copper were chemical rather than physical by nature. Conclusive evidence was obtained for coordination to copper through both the amino-nitrogen and carboxylate-oxygen atoms.
