Caught in the act : An alkyl alkene ZrIV complex (see picture; Cp=C5H5) has been synthesized and characterized for the first time. The alkene bonding mode is highly asymmetric, and C2 is quite carbocationic. There is also evidence for rotation about the C1? C2 bond. This extremely unusual complex provides an exemplar of previously unknown intermediates in Ziegler–Natta and carbocationic polymerization reactions of alkenes.
We prove that the semirings of 1-preserving and of 0,1-preserving endomorphisms of a semilattice are always subdirectly irreducible
and we investigate under which conditions they are simple. Subsemirings are also investigated in a similar way. 相似文献
We examined the reactivity of dimethylaminodiazafulvene 1 toward Fischer alkenylcarbene 2 and alkynylcarbene 3 complexes. Diazafulvene 1 reacts with alkenylcarbenes 2 through a formal [6+3] heterocyclization in a regio- and stereoselective manner to afford dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines 4. Acid-promoted dimethylamine elimination in compound 4 c gives rise to the aromatic imidazo pyridine 5. A likely mechanism for this reaction is a 1,2-nucleophilic addition/[1,2]-shift metal-promoted cyclization sequence. On the other hand, diazafulvene 1 and alkynyl carbenes 3 undergo a [6+2] cyclization to afford pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazole carbene complex 6 that can be readily oxidized to the corresponding esters 7. When enynylcarbenes 3 e-i are treated with diazafulvene 1, consecutive and diastereoselective [6+2]/cyclopentannulation cyclization reactions take place affording new polycyclic complex systems 8, 9, and 12 that can be appropriately demetallated to the corresponding imidazole-based polyfused systems 10, 11, and 13 respectively. Finally, enynylcarbenes 3 d,f undergo consecutive [6+2]/[5+1] cyclization reactions with diazafulvene 1 and tBuNC, respectively, to yield tetracyclic adducts 14 and 15. All these processes result in high yields and provide a route to the preparation of imidazopyridines and pyrroloimidazoles as well as other polycyclic molecules that contain imidazole groups, which are interesting from a pharmacological and biological point of view. 相似文献
Two polyoxometalate Keggin-type anions, alpha-PM12O40(3-) (M = Mo, W), were transferred to the gas phase by electrospray; their electronic structure and stability were probed by photoelectron spectroscopy. These triply charged anions were found to be highly stable in the gas phase with large adiabatic electron detachment energies of 1.7 and 2.1 eV for M = Mo and W, respectively. The magnitude of the repulsive Coulomb barrier was measured as approximately 3.4 eV for both anions, providing an experimental estimate for the intramolecular Coulomb repulsion present in these highly charged anions. Density functional theory calculations were carried out and compared with the experimental data, providing insight into the electronic structure and valence molecular orbitals of the two Keggin anions. The calculations indicated that the highest occupied molecular orbital and other frontier orbitals for PM12O40(3-) are localized primarily on the mu2-oxo bridging ligands of the polyoxometalate framework, consistent with the reactivity on the mu2-oxo sites observed in solution. It was shown that the HOMO of PW12O40(3-) is stabilized relative to that of PMo12O40(3-) by approximately 0.35 eV. The experimental adiabatic electron detachment energies of PM12O40(3-) (i.e., the electron affinities of PM12O40(2-)) are combined with recent calculations on the proton affinity of PM12O40(3-) to yield O-H bond dissociation energies in PM12O39(OH)2- as approximately 5.1 eV. 相似文献

The dimethyltitanocene methylenation of N-acylamides derived from ortho-vinylanilines, ortho-allylaniline, and ortho-vinylbenzylamine provides the corresponding enamides, which upon exposure to the second generation Grubbs ruthenium catalyst give access to indoles, 1,4-dihydroquinolines, and 1,2-dihydroisoquinolines, respectively. This sequential protocol also allows the synthesis of dihydrobenzoazepines, although the ring-closing metathesis (RCM) step is complicated by the alkene isomerization processes. From certain substrates, the direct annulation is observed in the titanium-mediated step, which is likely to occur through an olefin metathesis-intramolecular olefination sequence. 相似文献
Novel MCM-41 aluminosilicate/aluminophosphate materials that exhibit good mesostructural ordering have been synthesized and characterised; the synthesis of these silicoaluminophosphates involved the use of gel mixtures containing amorphous mesoporous aluminosilicate and aluminophosphate phases as precursor. 相似文献
Penta-, tetra-, tri-, and difluorobenzenes undergo direct arylation with a wide range of arylhalides in high yield. Inverse reactivity is observed compared to the common electrophilic aromatic substitution pathway since electron-deficient, C-H acidic arenes react preferentially. Computational studies indicate that C-H bond cleavage occurs via a concerted carbon-palladium and carbon-hydrogen bond cleaving event involving a carbonate or a bromide ligand. The reactions are rapid, require only a slight excess of the perfluoroarene reagent, and utilize commercially available, air-stable catalyst precursors. 相似文献
