RESUMO
The implementation of selective catalytic processes with highly active reagents is an attractive strategy that meets the modern principles of sustainable development of chemistry. In the current study, we for the first time describe the method and general principles of Cu(I)-catalyzed allylation of imines with amine adducts of allylic triorganoboranes. Triallylborane is an extremely reactive compound and cannot be used for the catalytic allylation of imines, whereas its amine adducts are ideal substrates for catalysis. The structure of the amine fragment successfully balances the safety, selectivity and stability of the allylboron reagent, allowing it to demonstrate high activity in catalytic allylation reactions, exceeding many times any known allylboranes. The obtained results are supported by quantitative kinetics data and DFT calculations. The catalytic efficacy of the system was demonstrated on model sulfinylimines (23 examples). High diastereoselectivity up to >99% was achieved, including for the gram-scale synthesis of 2-hydroxyphenyl-derivatives. Taking into account the high reactivity and unsurpassed atom-economy of amine adducts of triallylborane (AAT), they can be considered as prospective allylation reagents with Cu(I) and other appropriate metallocatalysts.
RESUMO
Heating tert-butyl-tetraline with [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 produces the racemic complex [(arene)RuCl2]2, which can be separated into enantiomers by chromatography of its diastereomeric adducts with chiral phosphine ligand. The resolved chiral complex catalyzes C-H activation of N-methoxy-benzamides and their annulation with N-vinyl-pivaloyl amide giving dihydroisoquinolones in 50-80% yields and with 40-80% enantiomeric excess.
RESUMO
We report the synthesis, structures, and magnetic and luminescence properties of a series of new mono- and dinuclear Er3+ complexes derived from sterically demanding aryloxide and fluorinated alkoxide ligands: [4-tBu-2,6-(Ph2CH)2C6H2O]3Er(THF) (1), [(C6F5)3CO]3Er(Me3SiOH) (2), [(C6F5)3CO]3Er[(Me3Si)2NH] (3), [(C6F5)3CO]3Er(C6H5CH3) (4), [(C6F5)3CO]3Er(o-Me2NC6H4CH3) (5) and {[Ph(CF3)2CO]2Er(µ2-OC(CF3)2Ph)}2 (6). In compounds 1, 2, and 4, the Er3+ ion is four-coordinated and adopts a distorted trigonal pyramidal geometry, while in 3, 5, and 6, the coordination geometry of Er3+ is impacted by the presence of several relatively short Erâ¯F distances, making them rather 6-coordinated. All compounds behave as field-induced Single Molecule Magnets (SMMs) and exhibit an Er3+ characteristic near infrared (NIR) emission associated with the 4I13/2 â 4I15/2 transition with a remarkably long lifetime going up to 73 µs, which makes them multifunctional luminescent SMMs. The deconvolution of the NIR emission spectra allowed us to provide a direct probe of the crystal field splitting in these compounds, which was correlated with magnetic data.
RESUMO
A new family of phenanthroline ligands was prepared. Hydrolysis of 4,7-dihalogenated 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides in acidic media leads to the formation of the corresponding 4,7-oxygenated derivatives. These ligands can exist in different tautomeric forms. The tautomerism of 4,7-oxygenated phenanthroline diamides has been investigated using quantum chemical calculations. The unsymmetrical oxo-hydroxy tautomeric form was proved to be the most energetically advantageous according to the spectral data and X-ray analysis. It was shown that 4,7-difluoro derivatives undergo acid hydrolysis more easily when compared to 4,7-dichloro derivatives. The coordination chemistry of 4,7-oxygenated 1,10-phenanthroline-2,9-diamides toward some lanthanide nitrates was investigated. The structures of Ln-complexes thus formed were studied both in the solid state and in solution (XRD analysis and IR, NMR and UV spectroscopy). It was revealed that 4,7-oxygenated ligands adopt the dihydroxy tautomeric form upon coordination with lanthanide nitrates.
RESUMO
Bis(carbazolide) complexes M[3,6-tBu2 -1,8-(RC≡C)2 Carb]2 (THF)n (R=SiMe3 , n=0, M=Ca, Yb; R=Ph, n=1, M=Ca, Yb; n=0, M=Yb) were synthesized through transamination reaction of M[N(SiMe3 )2 ]2 (THF)2 with two molar equivalents of carbazoles. The complexes feature M(η2 -C≡C)4 structural motif composed of M(II) ions encapsulated by four acetylene fragments due to atypical for alkaline- and rare-earth metals η2 -interactions with triple C≡C bond. This interaction is evidenced experimentally by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy in the solid state and by NMR-spectroscopy in the solution. According to QTAIM analysis there are 4 bond critical points (3;-1) between the metal atom and each of the triple bonds, which are connected by a strongly curved, almost T-shaped bond pathway.
RESUMO
A simple four-step route to a chiral tetrahydrofluorenyl rhodium catalyst from naturally occurring (-)-α-pinene was developed. Our approach does not use multistep and time-consuming procedures such as chiral HPLC or diastereomeric resolution. The key to success lies in the face-selective coordination of rhodium to the sterically hindered tetrahydrofluorenyl ligand, giving only one diastereomeric complex. This catalyst proved to be highly efficient for asymmetric C-H annulation of aryl hydroxamates with alkenes (yield up to 95%, 91% ee) at low loading (up to 0.4 mol % based on Rh).
RESUMO
The rhodium complex [(C5H2tBu2CH2tBu)RhCl2]2 with an asymmetric cyclopentadienyl ligand was prepared in 95% yield by the reaction of [(cod)RhCl]2 with tert-butylacetylene in the presence of AlCl3. A similar reaction in the presence of InBr3 gave the cationic fulvene complex [(C5H2tBu2 = CHtBu)Rh(cod)]InBr4 (70%), which can add alcohols ROH and produce more bulky catalysts [(C5H2tBu2CH(OR)tBu)RhCl2]2. The enantiomers of these planar-chiral complexes were separated by thin-layer chromatography in the presence of L-phenylglycinol. The complexes catalyze the reactions of arylhydroxamates with alkenes giving dihydroisoquinolones in excellent yields (80-90%), but with moderate enantioselectivity (typically 20-50% ee).
RESUMO
Despite the rich coordination chemistry, hydroxylamines are rarely used as ligands for transition metal coordination compounds. This is partially because of the instability of these complexes that undergo decomposition, disproportionation and oxidation processes involving the hydroxylamine motif. Here, we design macrocyclic poly-N-hydroxylamines (crown-hydroxylamines) that form complexes containing a d-metal ion (Cu(II), Ni(II), Mn(II), and Zn(II)) coordinated by multiple (up to six) hydroxylamine fragments. The stability of these complexes is likely to be due to a macrocycle effect and strong intramolecular H-bonding interactions between the N-OH groups. Crown-hydroxylamine complexes exhibit interesting pH-dependent behavior where the efficiency of metal binding increases upon deprotonation of the hydroxylamine groups. Copper complexes exhibit catalytic activity in aerobic oxidation reactions under ambient conditions, whereas the corresponding complexes with macrocyclic polyamines show poor or no activity. Our results show that crown-hydroxylamines display anomalous structural features and chemical behavior with respect to both organic hydroxylamines and polyaza-crowns.
RESUMO
Two coordination polymers, Fe(LOBF3)(CH3COO)(CH3CN)2]nâ¢nCH3CN and [Fe(LO-)2AgNO3BF4â¢CH3OH]nâ¢1.75nCH3OHâ¢nH2O (LO- = 3,3'-(4-(4-cyanophenyl)pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(1-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-olate)), were obtained via a PCET-assisted process that uses the hydroxy-pyrazolyl moiety of the ligand and the iron(II) ion as sources of proton and electron, respectively. Our attempts to produce heterometallic compounds under mild conditions of reactant diffusion resulted in the first coordination polymer of 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridines to retain the core N3(L)MN3(L). Under harsh solvothermal conditions, a hydrogen atom transfer to the tetrafluoroborate anion caused the transformation of the hydroxyl groups into OBF3 in the third coordination polymer of 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridines. This PCET-assisted approach may be applicable to produce coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks with the SCO-active core N3(L)MN3(L) formed by pyrazolone- and other hydroxy-pyridine-based ligands.

A novel rhodium-catalyzed tandem C-H annulation of commercially available benzaldehydes and aminobenzoic acids with 2 equiv of alkyne is reported for the construction of isocoumarin-conjugated isoquinolinium salts that demonstrate diverse outstanding photoactivity. Depending on the substituents in the isoquinolinium moiety, they display either highly efficient fluorescence (up to 99% of quantum yield) or strong fluorescence quenching, which is provided by the transfer of the HOMO from the isoquinolinium to the isocoumarin moiety. Importantly, the functional groups in the benzaldehyde coupling partner also strongly affect the reaction selectivity, shifting the pathway to the formation of the photoinactive isocoumarin-substituted indenone imines and indenyl amines. Selective formation of the latter can be achieved by using a reduced amount of the oxidizing additive.

A rhodium(II)-catalyzed reaction of cyclic nitronates (5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxazine N-oxides) with vinyl diazoacetates proceeds as a [3+3]-annulation producing bicyclic unsaturated nitroso acetals (4a,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2]oxazino[2,3-b][1,2]oxazines). Optimization of reaction conditions revealed the use of Rh(II) octanoate as the preferred catalyst in THF at room temperature, which allows the preparation of target products in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivity. Under basic conditions, namely, the combined action of DBU and alcohol, these nitroso acetals undergo ring contraction of an unsaturated oxazine ring into the corresponding pyrrole. Both transformations can be performed in a one-pot fashion, thus constituting a quick approach to oxazine-annulated pyrroles from available starting materials, such as nitroalkenes, olefins, and diazo compounds.
RESUMO
The reaction of cyclic nitronates (isoxazoline N-oxides and 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxazine N-oxides) with Kobayashi's aryne precursors affords tricyclic benzene-fused nitroso acetals as a result of [3 + 2]-cycloaddition. The process is regio- and stereoselective in most cases and produces the target cycloadducts possessing up to four contiguous stereogenic centers. These nitroso acetals were shown to be convenient precursors of valuable polysubstituted aminodiols through catalytic hydrogenolysis of the N-O bonds. Also, the action of protic acids resulted in an unusual fragmentation of the cyclic nitroso acetal moiety through heterolytic N-O bond cleavage and Beckmann-type reaction. Using this acid-mediated reaction, the synthesis of a hitherto unknown hexahydrobenzo[4,5]isoxazolo[2,3-a]azepine scaffold was accomplished.
RESUMO
Compounds with the general formula Ln3+(SeO3)(HSeO3)·2H2O, where Ln = Sm3+, Tb3+, Nd3+ and Lu3+, are characterized by orthorhombic symmetry with space group P212121 and unit-cell parameters in the ranges a â¼ 6.473-6.999, b â¼ 6.845-7.101, c â¼ 16.242-16.426â Å. Light-purple irregularly shaped crystals of a new monoclinic polytype of neodymium selenite Nd(SeO3)(HSeO3)·2H2O have been obtained during a mild-condition hydrothermal synthesis. The monoclinic unit-cell parameters are: a = 7.0815â (2), b = 6.6996â (2), c = 16.7734â (5)â Å, ß = 101.256â (1)°, V = 780.48â (6)â Å3; space group P21/c. The crystal structures of Nd(SeO3)(HSeO3)·2H2O polymorphs show order-disorder (OD) character and can be described using the same OD groupoid family, more precisely a family of OD structures built up from two kinds of non-polar layers (category IV). The first monoclinic maximum degree order (MDO) structure (MDO1-polytype) with space group P21/c can be obtained when the inversion centre is active in the L2n-type layers, while the second MDO structure (MDO2-polytype) is orthorhombic with space group P212121 and can be obtained when the [21--] operation is active in the L2n-type layers. The structural complexity parameters and DFT calculations of both polytypes show that the polytype structures are extremely close energy-wise and almost equally viable from the point of total energy of the structure.
RESUMO
Three pyrrolidine-derived phenanthroline diamides were studied as ligands for lutetium trinitrate. The structural features of the complexes have been studied using various spectral methods and X-ray. The presence of halogen atoms in the structure of phenanthroline ligands has a significant impact on both the coordination number of lutetium and the number of solvate water molecules in the internal coordination sphere. The stability constants of complexes with La(NO3)3, Nd(NO3)3, Eu(NO3)3, and Lu(NO3)3 were measured to demonstrate higher efficiency of fluorinated ligands. NMR titration was performed for this ligand, and it was found that complexation with lutetium leads to an approximately 13 ppm shift of the corresponding signal in the 19F NMR spectrum. The possibility of formation of a polymeric oxo-complex of this ligand with lutetium nitrate was demonstrated. Experiments on the liquid-liquid extraction of Am(III) and Ln(III) nitrates were carried out to demonstrate advantageous features of chlorinated and fluorinated pyrrolidine diamides.

The design of molecules with effective anticancer properties constructed from both dually active metal complex and organic fragments is a novel trend in medicinal chemistry. This concept suggests the impact of a drug on several biological targets or the synergistic action of both fragments as a single unit. We propose that the combination of a Pd-metallocomplex fragment and an organic unit can be an interesting model for anticancer drug discovery. The first phase in the development of such suggested molecules is the synthesis of bilateral metallosystems containing bioactive 6-substituted piperidin-2-one and a palladated N-phenylpyrazolic fragment. Both fragments were incorporated into one molecule through the fused pyrazole-piperidine-2-one unit followed by pyrazol-directed cyclopalladation of the phenyl-group with Pd(OAc)2. An effect of acceleration of the rate of the palladation by NH-lactam was observed. The synthesized hybrid palladacycles have been characterized and tested for their cytotoxic activity on three cancerous cell lines as PPh3 complexes, revealing structures with potential for further development and structural optimization.
RESUMO
Efficient protocols for the synthesis of triphenylcyclopentadienyl rhodium halides [(1,2,4-C5Ph3H2)RhX2]2 (1a,b: X = Cl, I) starting from 1,2,4-triphenylcyclopentadiene or the cyclooctadiene derivative (1,2,4-C5Ph3H2)Rh(cod) (2) were developed. Iodide abstraction from 1b with thallium or silver salts allowed us to prepare rhodocenium [(1,2,4-C5Ph3H2)RhCp]PF6 (3PF6) and mesitylene complex [(1,2,4-C5Ph3H2)Rh(mesitylene)](SbF6)2 (4(SbF6)2). Halides 1a,b (at 0.5 mol % loading) showed high catalytic activity in the construction of C-C, C-O, and C-N bonds via the C(sp2)-H activation approach. Their efficiency was demonstrated in the synthesis of more than 40 examples of polycyclic organic compounds (such as isocoumarins and naphthalenes, as well as isoquinolinium and dibenzo[a,f]quinolizinium salts). The protocols developed tolerate a wide range of functional groups. In particular, they were successfully used for the atom- and step-economical synthesis of hydroxy-substituted isocoumarins, including the natural product oospalactone 7fe. The 6- or 8-hydroxy-substituted isocoumarins showed moderate antiproliferative activity against several human cell lines in vitro.
RESUMO
Phenanthroline diamides (L) demonstrated a unique ability to extract uranium from nitric acid solutions into a polar organic solvent forming complexes of 1:2 stoichiometry as tight ion pairs {[UO2LNO3]+[UO2(NO3)3]-} by a novel extraction mechanism, which is a combination of two already well-known mechanisms: solvation and ion-pair anion exchange. A UV-vis study was used to confirm the formation of such complexes directly in the organic phase. Moreover, chemical synthesis and single crystal growth were performed to confirm unambiguously the structure of the complexes in the solid state.
RESUMO
The reaction of cyclic nitronic esters (isoxazoline- and 5,6-dihydro-4H-1,2-oxazine-N-oxides) with hydrochloric acid affords geminal chloronitroso compounds bearing a distant hydroxyl group. The reaction is usually diastereoselective, and in some cases stereodivergent formation of isomers at different temperatures is observed. The discovered process represents the first example of an interrupted Nef reaction of nitronic esters. DFT calculations support the initial formation of N,N-bis(oxy)iminium cations (key intermediates in the Nef reaction), which are intercepted by the chloride anion followed by ring opening. The synthetic utility of the resulting functionalized chloronitroso compounds in the Diels-Alder reaction with cyclopentadiene was demonstrated.
RESUMO
Optically active polymers are of great interest as materials for dense enantioselective membranes, as well as chiral stationary phases for gas and liquid chromatography. Combining the versatility of norbornene chemistry and the advantages of chiral natural terpenes in one molecule will open up a facile route toward the synthesis of diverse optically active polymers. Herein, we prepared a set of new chiral monomers from cis-5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride and chiral alcohols of various natures. Alcohols based on cyclic terpenes ((-)-menthol, (-)-borneol and pinanol), as well as commercially available alcohols (S-(-)-2-methylbutanol-1, S-(+)-3-octanol), were used. All the synthesized monomers were successfully involved in ring-opening metathesis polymerization, affording polymers in high yields (up to 96%) and with molecular weights in the range of 1.9 × 105-5.8 × 105 (Mw). The properties of the metathesis polymers obtained were studied by TGA and DSC analysis, WAXD, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The polymers exhibited high thermal stability and good film-forming properties. Glass transition temperatures for the prepared polymers varied from -30 °C to +139 °C and, therefore, the state of the polymers changed from rubbery to glassy. The prepared polymers represent a new attractive platform of chiral polymeric materials for enantioselective membrane separation and chiral stationary phases for chromatography.
RESUMO
A new synthetic pathway is devised to selectively produce previously elusive heteroleptic iron(II) complexes of terpyridine and N,N'-disubstituted bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridines that stabilize the opposite spin states of the metal ion. Such a combination of the ligands in a series of the heteroleptic complexes induces the spin-crossover (SCO) not experienced by the homoleptic complexes of these ligands or shifts it to lower/higher temperatures respective to the SCO-active homoleptic complex. The midpoint temperatures of the resulting SCO span from ca. 200 K to the ambient temperature and beyond the highest temperature accessible by NMR spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry. The proposed "one-pot" approach is applicable to other N-donor ligands to selectively produce heteroleptic complexesâincluding those inaccessible by alternative synthetic pathwaysâwith highly tunable SCO behaviors for practical applications in sensing, switching, and multifunctional devices.
