Unexpected Formation

An unexpected formation of carbamothioates by the reaction of arylmethyl isocyanides with xanthate esters in the presence of sodium hydride is reported. The products thus obtained were compared with carbamothioates obtained by the condensation of the corresponding benzylamines with xanthate esters in the presence of sodium hydride in DMF. A mechanism which is substantiated by DFT calculations to account for the unexpected reactions is proposed.

The deprotonation of S2B17H17 with sodium hydride and subsequent reaction with [PtCl2(PMe2Ph)2] gives the new macropolyhedral metallathiaborane [(PMe2Ph)2PtS2B16H16], of which the cluster consists of a conventional eleven-vertex nido {SB10} unit, fused, with two boron atoms in common, with a {PtSB8} unit of unique ten-vertex neo-arachno constitution and geometry. The latter geometry suggests a configuration for the previously structurally uncharacterised [B10H15]- anion; starting from this configuration, DFT calculations of structure and thence of boron nuclear shieldings, which are found very closely to mimic those found experimentally, thence support a fluxional structure for [B10H15]- with three {BHB(bridging)} and two {BH(endo)} hydrogen atoms around a six-membered open face.

Key Steps

An unexpected formation of carbamothioates by a sodium hydride-mediated reaction of arylmethyl isocyanides with xanthate esters in DMF is reported. The products thus obtained were compared with the carbamothioates obtained by the sodium hydride-mediated condensation of the corresponding benzylamines and xanthate esters in DMF. To account for these unexpected reactions, a mechanism is proposed in which the key steps are supported by quantum chemical calculations.

Unexpected Formation

The unexpected formation of a 4-hydroxytetrahydroquinolin-2(1H)-one from a bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanetrione system and an amino alcohol in the presence of TsOH is reported. The mechanism of this transformation was studied by DFT calculations. The reaction provides an entry to the synthesis of highly functionalized 4-hydroxytetrahydroquinolin-2(1H)-ones.

Pericyclic Reaction

The reactions of an aluminium(I) reagent with a series of 1,2-, 1,3- and 1,5-dienes are reported. In the case of 1,3-dienes the reaction occurs by a pericyclic reaction mechanism, specifically a cheletropic cycloaddition, to form aluminocyclopentene containing products. This mechanism has been interrogated by stereochemical experiments and DFT calculations. The stereochemical experiments show that the (4+1) cycloaddition follows a suprafacial topology, while calculations support a concerted albeit asynchronous pathway in which the transition state demonstrates aromatic character. Remarkably, the substrate scope of the (4+1) cycloaddition includes dienes that are either in part, or entirely, contained within aromatic rings. In these cases, reactions occur with dearomatisation of the substrate and can be reversible. In the case of 1,2- or 1,5-dienes complementary reactivity is observed; the orthogonal nature of the C=C π-bonds (1,2-diene) and the homoconjugated system (1,5-diene) both disfavour a (4+1) cycloaddition. Rather, reaction pathways are determined by an initial (2+1) cycloaddition to form an aluminocyclopropane intermediate which can in turn undergo insertion of a further C=C π-bond leading to complex organometallic products that incorporate fused hydrocarbon rings.

<p>The masked Ti(II) synthon (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(<i>η</i><sup>6</sup>-Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti (<b>1</b>) oxidatively adds across thiophene to give ring-opened (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti[<i>κ</i><sup>2</sup>-<i>S</i>(CH)<sub>3</sub><i>C</i>H] (<b>2</b>). Complex <b>2</b> is photosensitive, and upon exposure to light, reductively eliminates thiophene to regenerate <b>1</b> – a rare example of early-metal mediated oxidative-addition/reductive-elimination chemistry. DFT calculations indicate strong titanium π-backdonation to the thiophene π*-orbitals leads to the observed thiophene ring opening across titanium, while a proposed photoinduced LMCT promotes the reverse thiophene elimination from <b>2</b>. Finally, pressurizing solutions of <b>2 </b>with H<sub>2</sub> (150 psi) at 80 °C leads to the hydrodesulfurization of thiophene to give the Ti(IV) sulfide (<sup>Ket</sup>guan)(Im<sup>Dipp</sup>N)Ti(S) (<b>3</b>) and butane. </p>

We have investigated the solvent-dependence of structural changes along with intersystem crossing of a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) molecule, 3,4,5-tri(9H-carbazole-9-yl)benzonitrile (o-3CzBN), in toluene, tetrahydrofuran, and acetonitrile solutions using time-resolved infrared (TR-IR) spectroscopy and DFT calculations. We found that the geometries of the S1 and T1 states are very similar in all solvents though the photophysical properties mostly depend on the solvent. In addition, the time-dependent DFT calculations based on these geometries suggested that the thermally activated delayed fluorescence process of o-3CzBN is governed more by the higher-lying excited states than by the structural changes in the excited states.<br>
