Investigation of photophysical properties of mer-tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum (III) and its derivatives: DFT and TD-DFTcalculations

Optimized structures and photophysical properties of mer- and fac-Alq₃ have been generated by using density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). Investigating the substitution effect in the Alq₃ derivatives, the role of the electron-donating (CH₃- and NH₂-) and electron-withdrawing (F-, CN-, NO₂- and phenyl-) groups with 2- to 7-substitution have been analyzed. According to the calculation results, the 4- and 5- substituted Alq₃ exhibit an apparent spectral shift relative to the non-substituted Alq₃. The HOMO, LUMO, E_g (the energy gap between LUMO and HOMO), (maximum absorption wavelength) and f (the relative oscillator strength) of mer-Alq₃ with the 4- or 5-phenyl substitution on the quinoline ligand in the ground electronic state were calculated by using the DFT/B3LYP/6-31G(d) and TD-DFT methods. 5-phenyl substituted mer-Alq₃ with an electron-donating substituent showed an increase in the π-delocalization as compared to the 4-phenyl substituted mer-Alq₃ derivatives. Similarly, 4-phenyl substituted mer-Alq₃ with electron-withdrawing substituents also exhibits increased π-delocalization in the pyridine ring as compared to the non-substituted Alq₃. Replacing the CH group at the 4, 5 and 4,5 positions of the quinoline ligand of mer-Alq₃ with the aza group (nitrogen atom) gives three Alq₃ analogous: AlX₃, Al(NQ)₃ and Al(NX)₃; the calculated energy gap E_g of these derivatives decreases in the order Al(NQ)₃>Al(NX)₃>AX₃. Four quinoline with group III metals Mq₃ complexes were investigated for the photophysical properties; the calculated energy gap E_g decreases in the order Tlq₃>Inq₃>Gaq₃>Alq₃. The photophysical properties of 4-hydroxy-8-methyl-1,5-naphthyridine (mND) chelated with group III metals (MmND₃ complexes) were investigated also; their calculated E_g have the opposite order as those of Mq₃ complexes.

Conditions for the Selective Conversion of Quaternary 3-Anilino-1,5-dimethylpyrazolium Salts into 3-Anilino-1,5-dimethylpyrazole

The possibility has been studied of converting quaternary 3-anilino-1,5-dimethylpyrazolium salts into 3-anilino-1,5-dimethylpyrazole, the first representative of the 1-alkyl-3-arylaminopyrazoles. The dependence of the reaction direction on the nature of the substituent at position 2 has been clarified. The most effective result was obtained with a cyanoethyl substituent. On boiling the initial salt with aqueous ammonia the target product is isolated in quantitative yield. Syntheses of the initial salts are described. C-Sulfonation was detected on interacting 3-anilino-1-benzoyl-3-methylpyrazole and dimethyl sulfate, with the formation of p-(3-amino-1,2,5-trimethylpyrazolio)benzenesulfonate.     

Sequential three-component reactions: synthesis, regioselectivity and application of functionalized dihydropyridines (DHPs) for the creation of fused naphthyridines

Facile and efficient synthesis of tetrasubstituted 1,4- and 1,6-dihydropyridines (DHPs) has been achieved by employing three-component domino reaction using dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD), aliphatic amines, and α,β-unsaturated aldehyde in the presence of 30 mol % trifluoroacetic acid. Interestingly, regioselectivity for the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines can be increased by using 30 mol % triflic acid. In addition, the synthesis of fused-naphthyridine derivatives has been accomplished involving imino-Diels-Alder reaction by employing 1,4-dihydropyridines, aromatic aldehydes, and aromatic amines.
