Synthesis and characterization of Y‐type polymers for second‐order nonlinear optical applications

A series of dicyanomethylene‐substituted polymers having Y‐type molecular architecture were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation reaction. The polymers were found to be soluble in organic solvents like tetrahydrofuran and chloroform. From gel permeation chromatography, the molecular weights of the polymers were found to be in the range of 15,300–33,800 g/mol. Thermal analysis showed that the polymers were stable up to 350 °C with glass transition temperature (T_g) in the range of 129–212 °C. These polymers were found to form good optical quality films. The order parameter was calculated to be in the range of 0.01–0.48. Atomic force microscopy indicated prominent morphology changes due to alignment of dipoles after poling. By using Nd:YAG laser of 1064 nm, angular dependence and temperature dependence of second‐harmonic generation intensity were investigated. The geometry optimization, shape of polymers, and restricted torsion angle between acceptor and donor substituents (push–pull system) were calculated. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Catalytic enantioselective Reissert-type reaction: development and application to the synthesis of a potent NMDA receptor antagonist (-)-L-689,560 using a solid-supported catalyst.

Full details of the first catalytic enantioselective Reissert-type reaction are described. Utilizing the Lewis acid-Lewis base bifunctional catalyst 5 or 6 (9 mol %), the Reissert products were obtained in 57 to 99% yield with 54 to 96% ee. Electron-rich quinolines produced better yields and enantioselectivities than electron-deficient substrates. Kinetic studies indicated that the reaction should proceed via the rate-determining acyl quinolinium formation, followed by the attack of a cyanide. The catalyst does not facilitate the first rate-determining step; however, it strongly facilitates the second cyanation step. The reaction was successfully applied to an efficient catalytic asymmetric synthesis of a potent NMDA receptor antagonist (-)-L-689,560. A key step is the one-pot process using the Reissert-type reaction from quinoline 1f, followed by stereoselective reduction of the resulting enamine 2f. This step gave the key intermediate 20 in 91% yield with 93% ee, using 1 mol % of 6. The enantiomerically pure target compound was obtained through 10 operations (including recrystallization) in total yield of 47%. Furthermore, 6 was immobilized to JandaJEL, and the resulting solid-supported catalyst 11 afforded 20 in a comparable yield to the homogeneous 6, but with slightly lower enantioselectivity.     

Double layer structure and adsorption/desorption hysteresis of neat ionic liquid on Pt electrode surface — an in-situ IR-visible sum-frequency generation spectroscopic study

The electrochemical interface between a polycrystalline Pt electrode and the ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([bmim][OTf]) has been studied by in-situ IR-visible sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy. Potential dependent adsorption/desorption processes of OTf anions has been monitored within the electrochemical window. SFG results indicate that the ions form a double layer structure at the interface. Significant adsorption/desorption hysteresis has been observed for the anions on the Pt surface.     

Interactive Radical Dimers in Photoconductive Organic Thin Films

Fully interactive : Overlap between extended unoccupied molecular orbitals leads to the high photoconductivity of interactive radical dimers. Sandwich‐type cells (see picture; ITO=indium tin oxide) comprising highly oriented thin films of a disjoint diradical, 4,4′‐bis(1,2,3,5‐dithiadiazolyl) (BDTDA) exhibit a photocurrent with a high on/off ratio at reverse bias voltages and photovoltaic behavior at zero bias voltage.

     

Catalytic enantioselective allylation of ketoimines

A general catalytic allylation of simple ketoimines was developed using 1 mol % of CuF.3PPh(3) as catalyst, 1.5 mol % of La(O(i)Pr)(3) as the cocatalyst, and stable and nontoxic allylboronic acid pinacol ester as the nucleophile. This reaction constituted a good template for developing the first catalytic enantioselective allylation of ketoimines. In this case, using LiO(i)Pr as the cocatalyst produced higher enantioselectivity and reactivity than La(O(i)Pr)(3). Thus, using the CuF-cyclopentyl-DuPHOS complex (10 mol %) and LiO(i)Pr (30 mol %) in the presence of (t)BuOH (1 equiv) produced high enantioselectivity up to 93% ee from a range of aromatic ketoimines. Mechanistic studies indicated that LiO(i)Pr accelerates the reaction by increasing the concentration of an active nucleophile, allylcopper.     

Gelation of colloidal crystals without degradation in their transmission quality and chemical tuning

A single-domain colloidal crystal with high transmission quality, prepared by a shear-induced process, was fixed as a hydrogel film by photopolymerization. Upon gelation, the original optical quality was almost perfectly preserved. By replacing the solvent, the gelled crystal could be converted to smaller lattice constant crystals without significant degradation in its transmission characteristics. The conversion results in a stop-band wavelength coverage across the entire visible light range.     

New entries in Lewis acid-Lewis base bifunctional asymmetric catalyst: catalytic enantioselective Reissert reaction of pyridine derivatives

The first catalytic enantioselective Reissert reaction of pyridine derivatives that affords products with excellent regio- and enantioselectivity is described. The key for success is the development of new Lewis acid-Lewis base bifunctional asymmetric catalysts containing an aluminum as a Lewis acid and sulfoxides or phosphine sulfides as a Lewis base. These reactions are useful for the synthesis of a variety of chiral piperidine subunits, and catalytic enantioselective formal synthesis of CP-293,019, a selective D4 receptor antagonist, was achieved. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that both sulfoxides and phosphine sulfides can activate TMSCN as a Lewis base. In addition, the sulfoxides with appropriate stereochemistry might stabilize a highly enantioselective bimetallic complex (a presumed active catalyst) through internal coordination to aluminum.     

Cloud point extraction of iron(III) and vanadium(V) using 8-quinolinol derivatives and Triton X-100 and determination of 10(-7)moldm(-3) level iron(III) in riverine water reference by a graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy

The cloud point extraction behavior of iron(III) and vanadium(V) using 8-quinolinol derivatives (HA) such as 8-quinolinol (HQ), 2-methyl-8-quinolinol (HMQ), 5-butyloxymethyl-8-quinolinol (HO₄Q), 5-hexyloxymethyl-8-quinolinol (HO₆Q), and 2-methyl-5-octyloxymethyl-8-quinolinol (HMO₈Q) and Triton X-100 solution was investigated. Iron(III) was extracted with HA and 4% (v/v) Triton X-100 in the pH range of 1.70-5.44. Above pH 4.0, more than 95% of iron(III) was extracted with HQ, HMQ, and HMO₈Q. Vanadium(V) was also extracted with HA and 4% (v/v) Triton X-100 in the pH range of 2.07-5.00, and the extractability increased in the following order of HMQ < HQ < HO₄Q < HO₆Q. The cloud point extraction was applied to the determination of iron(III) in the riverine water reference by a graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy. When 1.25 × 10⁻³ M HMQ and 1% (v/v) Triton X-100 were used, the found values showed a good agreement with the certified ones within the 2% of the R.S.D. Moreover, the effect of an alkyl group on the solubility of 5-alkyloxymethyl-8-quinolinol and 2-methyl-5-alkyloxymethyl-8-quinolinol in 4% (v/v) Triton X-100 at 25 °C was also investigated.
