A simple copper- and base-free palladium-catalyzed Sonogashira-type cross-coupling by the use of triarylantimony dicarboxylates is described. Reaction of triarylantimony diacetates with terminal alkynes in the presence of 1 mol % of PdCl2(PPh3)2 catalyst led to the formation of cross-coupling products in good to excellent yields. The reaction proceeded effectively under an aerobic condition, in that two of the three aryl groups on antimony could be transferred to the coupling products, whereas only one of them was involved in the reaction in an argon atmosphere. The reaction is sensitive to the electronic nature of the diacetates, and those bearing an electron-withdrawing group on the aromatic ring showed higher reactivity than those having an electron-donating group. 相似文献

A sensitive cluster : The labile rhodathiaborane [(PPh3)2(H)‐nido‐RhSB9H9(NC5H5)] combines the redox and coordinative flexibility of the {(PPh3)2(H)Rh} fragment with the capability of the 11‐vertex rhodathiaborane cluster to undergo oxidative nido‐to‐closo transformations induced by coordination of alkynes to the metal centre, which leads to hydrogenation of the triple bond, dehydrogenation of the cluster and oxidative addition of sp C? H bonds.
Metal‐stabilized belts : A torus, 3 , consisting of three four‐ and three eight‐membered conjugated rings and stabilized by (RCp)Co‐ and (RCp)Rh‐ units, was generated by irradiation of [(RCp)Co(CO)2] and [(RCp)Rh(C2H4)2], respectively, and 1 .
1‐Phenyl urazole radicals are persistent air‐stable nitrogen‐centered radicals that engage in an equilibrium with the corresponding N―N tetrazane dimers in solution. While the equilibrium typically weakly favors the dimer form, for some 1‐phenyl urazole radicals bearing substituents at the ortho position of the benzene ring, the equilibrium instead strongly favors the dimer form. With the recent surge of interest in the properties and potential applications of heterocyclic radicals, the factors that affect this equilibrium are important to determine. We examined the effect of the extent of ortho substitution (none, 1, or 2 substituents) on the equilibrium by experimentally using variable temperature 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and UV‐visible spectroscopy in addition to supporting computational investigations at the (U)B3LYP/6‐311G(d,p) level of theory. We confirmed that the equilibrium generally favored the dimer in all cases. However, the equilibrium was more favorable towards dimer formation for urazole radicals substituted with 1 and 2 ortho substituents on the aromatic ring. The activation enthalpies for dissociation of singly substituted dimers were greater than that for dimers without ortho substituents, but lower than that for doubly substituted dimers. The greater preference for dimer formation for the ortho‐substituted urazole radicals is attributed to a greater enthalpic advantage for N―N bond formation. This advantage may be traced to a higher concentration of spin density on the urazole unit of the radicals and a lesser deformation energy required for N―N bond formation. 相似文献
A facile and practical synthetic route of unsymmetrical 1,3‐diynes via the PdCl/CuI catalyzed oxidative coupling of two different terminal alkynes has been developed by using 3‐(diphenylphosphino)propanoic acid as a ligand in the presence of oxygen. This system is suitable for not only aromatic alkynes but also heteroaromatic and aliphatic alkynes which were transformed into the corresponding unsymmetrical 1,3‐diynes in moderate to good yields at room temperature. Moreover, the unsymmetrical 1,3‐diynes were also obtained on a multi‐gram scale. Mechanistic studies suggest that oxygen plays a key role in the catalytic cycles. 相似文献
The performance of polymer field‐effect transistors (PFETs) based on short rigid rod semiconducting poly(2,5‐didodecyloxy‐p‐phenyleneethynylene) (D‐OPPE) is highlighted. The controlled heating and cooling of thin films of D‐OPPE allows for a recrystallization from the melt, boosting the performance of D‐OPPE‐based transistors. The improved film properties induced by controlled annealing lead to a hole field‐effect mobility around 0.014 cm2 V−1 s−1, an on/off ratio of 106, a sub‐threshold swing of 3 V dec−1 and a threshold voltage of −35 V, employing a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) gate dielectric. Thus, PFETs out of D‐OPPE compete now with spin‐coated, polycrystalline poly(3‐hexylthiophene)‐based PFETs.
