Pentamethylcyclopentadienide in organic synthesis: nucleophilic addition of lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide to aromatic aldehydes and carbon-carbon bond cleavage of the adducts affording the parent aldehydes

Treatment of aromatic aldehyde with lithium pentamethylcyclopentadienide provided the corresponding carbinol in excellent yield. The carbinol returns to the parent aldehyde and pentamethylcyclopentadiene upon exposure to an acid or due to heating. The combination of the two reactions can represent a protection of aromatic aldehyde.

Development of aryl-containing dipyrrolyldiketone difluoroboron complexes (BONEPYs): Tune the hydrogen bond o–CH···F for fluoride recognition

Dipyrrolyldiketone difluoroboron complexes (BONEPYs) were synthesized by condensation of the corresponding pyrroles and malonyl chloride followed by treatment with BF₃·OEt₂. The aryl-substituted pyrrole is introduced to form a cyclic system in order to investigate anion binding studies. In BONEPYs 1–3 the o-H of the aryl group forms hydrogen bonding with F⁻ to give a more table complex. In contrast, the intramolecular hydrogen-bonded BONEPY endo-4 is more stable than its exo isomer. While adding F⁻, the hydrogen bonds must be broken first to give 4·(3)F⁻. Owing to the electron-rich group (-OMe), the o-H of the phenyl group can hardly interact with F⁻ via hydrogen bonding to give the less stable complex 4·(5)F⁻. The energy differences between the different conformations were calculated using DFT methods, which is consistent to the experimental observations.     

Two-dimensional catena–polymer [[[bis (µ-aqua)(bis (µ-cpiap-K2O1:O2)sodium(I))] (µ-chlorido) bis(µ-cpiap-K5N1:O1:O2:O3,O3′)dicopper(II)]bis(µ-aqua)(aqua)bis(cpiap-K2O1,O2)copper(II)] hexa hydrate

The new title two-dimensional hetero-tetra nuclear Cu₃–Na coordination polymer {[NaCu₃Cl(cpiap)₂(H₂O)₃]_n·6nH₂O} (1) consists of crystallographically two-independent copper(II) centers, each bridged by a sodium cation through carboxylate-oxygen of the deprotonated H₃cpiap ligand (H₃cpiap = 2-(carboxyphenyl)iminoaceticpropanoic acid) to Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (2⁻) cations, and through water molecules to Cu^II (1) cation. Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (1) cations are bridged by carboxylate-oxygen atoms of the ligand in a syn-anti mode which, alternate regularly within the chain being bridged by a tetra coordinated sodium cation. Each Cu^II (2) and Cu^II (2⁻) cation in (1) is in an octahedral environment formed by four carboxylate-oxygens from two cpiap³⁻ ligands, one nitrogen atom and a bridging chloride atom. Cu^II (1) cation is in a square pyramidal environment formed by three water molecules and two carboxylate-oxygens from two cpiap³⁻ ligands. The ligand acts simultaneously as monodentate and tridentate toward Cu^II (1) and Cu^II (2) cations respectively. The lattice water molecules involved in OH···O hydrogen bonding are situated in the void spaces between layers. The zigzag chains, which run along the b-axes further construct three-dimensional metal-organic framework via hydrogen bonding and weak face-to-face π-π interactions. Weak CH···O interactions are also present.     

[Ru(DMSO)4]Cl2 catalyzes the α-alkylation of ketones by alcohols

The electrophilic α-alkylation of ketones with alcohols was accomplished by a [Ru(DMSO)₄]Cl₂ catalyzed process, water being the only wasted material. The reaction can be successfully governed to produce either the expected ketones or their related alcohols only by changing the reaction conditions. When 2-aminobenzyl alcohol was used, a cyclization process took place to yield 2,3-disubstituted quinolines.     

Unique Reactivity of a Diphenyldisilane Unit Incorporated into the Bicyclic Ring System: Generation of a Disilanyllithium via Silicon-Phenyl Bond Cleavage with Lithium

A bicyclic diphenyldisilane bearing two tetramethylene tethers reacts with lithium to form predominantly the disilanyllithium as a result of Si-C_Ph bond fission, while the pentamethylene homolog undergoes ordinary Si-Si bond cleavage to afford the expected phenylsilyllithium. The compressed Si-Si bond incorporated in the bicyclic ring system may be kinetically stabilized (compression effect), resulting in the unusual Si-C bond fission. When the reaction is carried out in the presence of chlorotrimethylsilane, a Calas-type reaction takes place on the phenyl rings. This result suggests that electron transfer to the phenyl group is the primary process in these bicyclic disilanes, followed by Si-Si or Si-C bond cleavage to afford the corresponding silyllithium species.
