1,2-Dichalcogenins: Simple Syntheses of 1,2-Diselenins, 1,2-Dithiins,and 2-Selenathiin

Ring opening of titanacyclopentadienes 1 with (SCN)₂ or (SeCN)₂ followed by bis(thiocyanate) or bis(selenocyanate) cyclization affords 1,2-dithiin ( 2 a ) or 1,2-diselenin ( 2 b ), respectively. Compound 1 gives 2 a directly on reaction with S₂Cl₂. Unsubstituted 1,2-diselenin is prepared by reaction of PhCH₂SeNa with 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-butadiyne followed by reductive cleavage of the benzyl group and oxidation. The unsubstituted 2-selenathiin is prepared in an analogous manner, but from a mixture of PhCH₂SeNa and PhCH₂SNa.

A Slow and Clean Fluorine Atom Beam Source Based on Ultraviolet Laser Photolysis

A slow and clean fluorine atom beam source is one of the essential components for the low-collision energy scattering experiment involving fluorine atom. In this work, we describe a simple but effective photolysis fluorine atom beam source based on ultraviolet laser photolysis, the performance of which was demonstrated by high-resolution time-of-flight spectra from the reactive scattering of F+HD. This beam source paved the way for studies of low energy collisions with fluorine atoms.     

Photoinduced synthesis and electrochemical properties of new ruthenium(mono)bipyridine dialkylcyanamide and propiononitrile complexes

Photochemical exchange of carbonyls was used to produce new ruthenium dialkylcyanamide and nitrile compounds [RuCl₂(bpy)(CO)(NCNMe₂)] (2), [RuCl₂(bpy)(CO)(NCNEt₂)] (3), and [RuCl₂(bpy)(CO)(NCEt)] (4) from trans(Cl)-[RuCl₂(bpy)(CO)₂] (1). The reaction energetics, steric effects and electronic effects induced by the dialkylcyanamide and nitrile ligands were studied using computational DFT methods and cyclic voltammetry. In all cases the photochemical exchange reaction favors rearrangement of the ligands and formation of the trans(Cl,L)-[RuCl₂(bpy)(CO)L] (L = NCNMe₂, NCNEt₂ or NCEt) isomer as the main products. The oxidation potential of the complexes decreases with the increase of the HOMO energy and of net electron-donor character of the ligands, the dialkylcyanamides (whose electrochemical Lever E_L ligand parameter has been estimated) behaving as stronger net electron donors than propiononitrile or CO. The electronic effect of the dialkylcyanamide and nitrile ligands is also reflected into the HOMO-LUMO energy difference, which is slightly reduced compared to the original dicarbonyl compound 1. The computational results show that the geometry of the isomer plays also an important role in the determination of orbital energies.     

Carbonyltungsten(0) complexes of acryloylferrocene: Synthesis and characterization

Photolysis of hexacarbonyltungsten(0) in the presence of acryloylferrocene in n-hexane solution at 10 °C yields pentacarbonyl(η²-acryloylferrocene)tungsten(0) (1) as the only photo-substitution product, different from the general reaction pattern observed for the Group 6 metal carbonyls with other olefins. W(CO)₅(η²-acryloylferrocene) (1) decomposes in solution to the parent hexacarbonyltungsten(0) and free acryloylferrocene. Trimethylphosphite was introduced as ligand into the molecule to increase the stability. The photolysis of pentacarbonyl(trimethylphosphite)tungsten(0) in the presence of acryloylferrocene in n-hexane solution at 10 °C yields only cis-W(CO)₄[P(OCH₃)₃](η²-acryloylferrocene) (2) as the monosubstitution product. Both η²-acryloylferrocene complexes (1 and 2) could be isolated and characterized by MS, IR and NMR spectroscopy. The trimethylphosphite complex (2) is found to be even less stable than W(CO)₅(η²-acryloylferrocene) (1).     

玫瑰红作用下γ-六氯环己烷在冰相中的光敏化降解

Photolysis of Dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene Dimer

Photolysis reaction of dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene dimer 3 provides three dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptyl dimers 4 , 5 and 6 under different irradiation conditions via the intramolecular degradative cyclodimerization. A tetracyclic benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2,3‐de]naphthalene core is also synthesized.     

Substituent effect on the photochemistry of 4,4-dialkoxylated- and 4-hydroxylated cyclohexenones

Photochemistry of the title compounds in various solvents was studied using a broad band of light centered at 350 nm. C-4 spiroketal cyclohexenone 4 (1.0 M) afforded dimers and 12b with the predominance of the former in polar solvent and the latter in nonpolar solvent. When the concentration was reduced to, 4 underwent solvent addition in nonpolar solvent and ring-contraction in polar solvents. 4,4-Dimethoxycyclohexenones 5a–d in TFE exhibited a different photochemical behavior. The 5-vinyl-substituted enone afforded the bridged-bicyclic ketone 16. Cyclohexenone 5b with methyl moieties at C-2 and C-3 underwent aromatization whereas cyclohexenones with butyl substituent at C-5 and 5d with silylated alcohol at C-2 underwent solvent exchange. In γ-hydroxylated cyclohexenones 6a–c ring-contraction and solvent exchange were observed. Photochemistry of the title compounds from the mechanistic viewpoint is also described.     

Synthesis and photochemical reactivity of caged glutamates with a π-extended coumarin chromophore as a photolabile protecting group

‘Caging’ and ‘uncaging’ bioactive substrates are key techniques in studying a wide variety of biological processes. In the present study, two-types of novel caged glutamates with a two-photon absorption (TPA) core, that is, π-extended coumarin, were synthesized and their photochemical release of glutamate was analyzed. The high yields of glutamate (>92%) were observed in the photolysis of compounds 1 and 10, respectively.     

Pentacarbonyl(2,6-diaminopyridine)chromium(0): synthesis and molecular structure

Photolysis of hexacarbonylchromium(0) in the presence of 2,6-diaminopyridine in toluene solution at 10 °C yields pentacarbonyl(2,6-diaminopyridine)chromium(0), which could be isolated from solution as plate-like crystals and fully characterized by using the single crystal X-ray diffractometry and MS, IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The complex was found to have the 2,6-diaminopyridine ligand bonded to the chromium atom through one of the NH₂ groups. A single crystal X-ray structure of the complex reveals that the coordination sphere around the chromium atom is a slightly distorted octahedron, involving five carbonyls and one 2,6-diaminopyridine ligand. Because of the steric requirement of 2,6-diaminopyridine the four equatorial carbonyl groups are bended away from the N-donor ligand. The pyridine plane makes an angle of 112.9(3)° with the OC-Cr-N bond axis. The Cr-C distances have values between 1.833(7) and 1.935(7) Å. The Cr-N distance is 2.236(5) Å.
