4‐[4‐(Di­methyl­amino)­benzyl­idene­amino]‐3,5‐bis(2‐pyridyl)‐4H‐1,2,4‐triazole

The title compound, C₂₁H₁₉N₇, is a poly­pyridine ligand that is suitable for assembling complex metal systems capable of photoinduced electron transfer. The solid‐state structure has been determined at room temperature by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The mol­ecule is not flat and both the bis­(pyridyl)­triazole and the benzyl­id­ene­amine fragments show significant distortions from planarity.     

Preparation and chemistry of phosphoranyl-derived iodanes

The preparation and chemistry of novel phosphoranyl-derived lambda(3)-iodanes is reported. The phosphoranyl-derived phenyliodonium sulfonates were prepared in good yields by the reaction of stabilized phosphonium ylides [1-triphenylphosphoranylidene-2-propanone, methyl(triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetate, (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetaldehyde, and (triphenylphosphoranylidene)acetonitrile] with the pyridinium complex of iodobenzene ditriflate or with [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene under mild conditions. These compounds represent a potentially useful class of reagents that combine in one molecule synthetic advantages of a phosphonium ylide and an iodonium salt. Specifically, phosphorane-derived phenyliodonium tosylates can react with soft nucleophiles, such as iodide, bromide, benzenesulfinate, and thiophenolate anions, with a selective formation of the respective alpha-functionalized phosphonium ylides, which can be further converted to alkenes by the Wittig reaction with benzaldehyde. The phosphoranyl-derived benziodoxoles can be prepared by the reaction of 1-acetoxybenziodoxole with stabilized phosphonium ylides. An unusual ligand exchange on the iodine(III) center resulting in the substitution of a carbon ligand with an oxygen ligand was observed in the reaction of these compounds with strong acids.

Copper-Photocatalyzed Borylation of Organic Halides under Batch and Continuous-Flow Conditions

The copper-photocatalyzed borylation of aryl, heteroaryl, vinyl and alkyl halides (I and Br) was reported. The reaction proceeded using a new heteroleptic Cu complex under irradiation with blue LEDs, giving the corresponding boronic-acid esters in good to excellent yields. The reaction was extended to continuous-flow conditions to allow an easy scale-up. The mechanism of the reaction was studied and a mechanism based on a reductive quenching (Cu^I/Cu^I*/Cu⁰) was suggested.

Photochemical reactions. 146th communication. Photochemistry of conjugated methano-epoxydienes: Participation of the neighboring cyclopropane ring in product formation via carbonyl ylide and carbene intermediates

On singlet excitation (λ = 254 nm, THF, pentane or hexane), the diastereoisomeric methano-epoxydienes (E)- 6 and (E)- 7 undergo interconversion and yield the products 8 – 11 . The main process is the cleavage of the oxirane ring to the vinyl carbene intermediate e which undergoes addition to the adjacent double bond furnishing the cyclopropene 8 . The alternative carbene intermediate f is evidenced by the formation of the cyclobutene 10 . For the fragmentation leading to 11 , the carbene f as well as the dipolar species h are considered as possible intermediates. On triplet sensitization (acetone, λ > 280 nm), (E)- 7 shows behavior typical of epoxydienes, undergoing fission of the C? O bond of the oxirane ring and isomerization to the compounds 13 , 14 and (E/Z)- 15 .     

Metathetical reactions of carbonylate anions with dichlororuthenium complexes: Preparation and characterization of ruthenium—molybdenum and ruthenium—manganese complexes

The possibility of making metal—metal bonded heterobimetallic species by metathesis of ruthenium dichlorides with anionic carbonylates is demonstrated by the isolation of MoRu(μ-Cl)(μ-CO)(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂(η-C₅H₅) (1) and MnRuCl(μ-CO)₂(CO)₃(μ-dppm)₂ (2), obtained by action of [Mo(CO)₃(η-C₅H₅]^? on RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃ and of Mn(CO)₅^? on RuCl₂(dppm)₂, respectively. In contrast, reaction of Mn(CO)₅^? with RuCl₂(PMe₃)₄ yielded an ionic species 3 containing the diruthenium cation Ru₂Cl₃(PMe₃)₆⁺. More interestingly, the action of Mn(CO)₅^? on RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃ resulted in the formation of the unexpected complex MnRu(μ-PPh₂)(CO)₆(PPh₃)₂ (4) in which the phosphido group PPh₂ bridges the two metals; this process is shown to involve a hydride intermediate, and elimination of a molecule of benzene, both identified in the reaction mixture.     

Synthesis of 2-oxazolines mediated by N,N′-diisopropylcarbodiimide

N-(β-Hydroxy)amides can be cyclised by reaction with diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC) to give the corresponding 2-oxazolines in high yields. The reaction requires only very mild Lewis-acid catalysis (5 mol % Cu(OTf)₂) and can be accomplished with simple heating, or in very short reaction times under microwave irradiation.     

From calcium interaction to calcium electrochemical detection by [(C5H5)Fe(C5H4COCH=CHC6H4NEt2)] and its two novel structurally characterized derivatives

[(C(5)H(5))Fe(C(5)H(4)COCH=CHC(6)H(4)NEt(2))] (1) has been electrochemically evaluated toward different cations in solution. Calcium sensing by this compound and its two new derivatives [(C(5)H(5))Fe(C(5)H(4)CO(CH=CH)(2)C(6)H(4)NMe(2))] (2) and [(C(5)H(5))Fe(C(5)H(4)CH=CHCOCH=CHC(6)H(4)NEt(2))] (3) that exhibit a conjugated link between the ferrocene unit and the nitrogen atom has been thoroughly examined. Compounds 2 and 3 have been structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The three related protonated species [1H][BF(4)] (4), [2H][BF(4)] (5), and [3H][BF(4)] (6) have been isolated in a good yield. NMR experiments clearly established that calcium interaction occurs in the vicinity of the carbonyl group, and mass spectrometry studies confirmed that this interaction, which involves several ligand-Ca(2+) adducts, is complex. A combination of electrochemical and NMR experiments highlighted an original salt influence on the electrochemical calcium sensing result.
