A new synthesis of 3,4-disubstituted 1,2,5-thiadiazoles

A simple and convenient reduction of 3,4-diamino derivatives of 2,5-thiadiazole-1-oxide to the corresponding 1,2,5-thiadiazoles has been accomplished using Ph₃P and CCl₄ in dichloromethane.     

Reaction of allylic and benzylic alcohols and esters with PPh3/I2: one-pot synthesis of β,γ-unsaturated compounds

The treatment of tertiary and secondary allylic alcohols containing a terminal double bond, and their acetyl derivatives, with triphenylphosphine and iodine under mild conditions leads regiospecifically and in high stereoselectivity to the corresponding primary allylic iodides, which can react ‘in situ’ with diverse nucleophiles. Primary allylic alcohols and benzyl alcohols and acetates are also transformed into the corresponding iodides under these conditions.     

Zweifach phosphonylierte Triphenylphosphane – neue Liganden mit ausgezeichneter Wasserlöslichkeit

Triphenylphosphine Diphosphonates – New Ligands with Excellent Water‐Solubility A highly selective method for the functionalization of triarylphosphines with phosphonate moieties has been developed. New ligands with excellent solubility in water, such as the previously unknown triphenylphosphine‐diphosphonates PhP[3‐C₆H₄–PO₃Na₂]₂ and PhP[4‐C₆H₄–PO₃Na₂]₂, are accessible by this efficient synthesis route.     

Synthesis of alkenes from tertiary esters utilizing the triphenylphosphine-iodine system

The treatment of tertiary esters with triphenylphosphine and iodine under mild conditions gives the most stable alkene in good yield. Formates, acetates and trifluoroacetates were studied.     

Synthesis,Structures, and Luminescent Properties of Lanthanide Complexes with Triphenylphospine Oxide

Seven lanthanide complexes [Ln(OPPh₃)₃(NO₃)₃] ( 1 – 3 ) (OPPh₃ = triphenylphosphine oxide, Ln = Nd, Sm, Gd), [Dy(OPPh₃)₄(NO₃)₂](NO₃) ( 4 ), [Ln(OPPh₃)₃(NO₃)₃]₂ ( 5 – 7 ) (Ln = Pr, Eu, Gd) were synthesized by the reactions of different lanthanide salts and OPPh₃ ligand in the air. These complexes were characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, IR and fluorescence spectra. Structure analysis shows that complexes 1 – 4 are mononuclear complexes formed by OPPh₃ ligands and nitrates. The asymmetric units of complexes 5 – 7 consist of two crystallographic‐separate molecules. Complex 1 is self‐assembled to construct a 2D layer‐structure of (4,4) net topology by hydrogen bond interactions. The other complexes show a 1D chain‐like structure that was assembled by OPPh₃ ligands and nitrate ions through C–H ··· O interactions. Solid emission spectra of compounds 4 and 6 are assigned to the characteristic fluorescence of Tb³⁺ (λ_em = 480, 574 nm) and Eu³⁺ (λ_em = 552, 593, 619, 668 nm).     

Green luminescence from triphenylphosphine functionalized single-wall carbon nanotubes

In a simple wet chemical process, purified single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are treated with triphenylphosphine (Ph₃P) at room temperature. The functionalized material is characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. HRTEM micrograph clearly reveals that triphenylphosphine nanocrystals of nearly uniform size are attached to the surfaces of SWCNTs. The hybrid structure shows remarkable green luminescence with peak emission at around 500 nm, under UV excitation. The photoluminescence may be attributed to charge transfer from the electron-donating phosphorous atoms to the carbon nanotubes.     

Synthesis of Some Novel γ-Spirolactones

Summary. We report on the addition of dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate to 1-alkylisatins or tryptanthrine in the presence of triphenylphosphine which leads to highly functionalised novel unsaturated -spirolactones.     

Synthesis,spectral and biological investigations of 5(2′-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-substituted-phenyl) pyrazolinates of cobalt(II) and their addition complexes with N,P donor ligands

5(2′-Hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-substituted-phenyl)pyrazolinates of cobalt(II) of the type (C₁₅H₁₂N₂OX)₂Co [here substituted group X is–H,–Cl,–CH₃ or–OCH₃] have been synthesized by reaction of anhydrous cobalt(II)chloride with the sodium salt of the pyrazolines in 1 : 2 molar ratio. Their addition complexes with N and P donor ligands [2, 2′-bipyridine, 1, 10-phenanthroline and triphenylphosphine] were prepared in 1 : 1 molar ratio. The newly synthesized complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, molecular weight measurement, magnetic susceptibility, IR, electronic, ³¹P NMR and FAB mass spectra. All complexes are amorphous as determined by XRD. Tetrahedral geometry around cobalt(II) has been suggested, confirming the presence of two pyrazoline bidentate ligands, cobalt(II)5- (2′-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(4-substituted-phenyl)pyrazolinates. Upon ligand addition, pyrazoline changes to monodentate. The bidentate and monodentate behavior of pyrazoline ligands was confirmed by IR spectral data. The metal complexes and their adducts exhibit good antibacterial and antifungal activity, better than the pyrazolines.
