Synthesis, Post-Functionalization and Properties of Diphosphapentaarenes.

ABSTRACT: Linearly-fused polyarenes are an important class of compounds with high relevance in materials science. While modifying the shape and size represents a common means to fine-tune their properties, the precise placement of heteroatoms is a strategy that is receiving an increasing deal of attention to overcome the intrinsic limitations of all-carbon structures. Thus, linearly-fused diphosphaarenes recently emerged as a novel family of molecules with striking optoelectronic properties and outstanding stability. However, the properties of diphosphaarenes are far from being benchmarked. Herein, we report the synthesis, phosphorus post-functionalization and properties of new diphosphapentaarene derivatives. We describe their synthetic limitations and unveil their potential for optoelectronic applications.

Ylide-Functionalization via Metalated Ylides: Synthesis and Structural Properties.

Project description:The α-metallated ylides [Ph3P-C-Z]-M+ (with Z=SO2Tol or CN and M=Na or K) were used as versatile nucleophiles for the facile access to ylide-substituted compounds. Halogenations, alkylations, carbonylations and functionalization reactions with main group element halides were easily accomplished by simple trapping reactions with the appropriate electrophiles. X-ray crystallographic studies of all compounds - including the first structures of α-fluorinated P-ylides - showed remarkable differences in the ylide backbone depending on the substituents. In the fluorinated compounds, a change from a fully planar to a pyramidalized ylidic carbon centre was observed despite the strongly anion-stabilizing ability of the yldiide substituent. π-Donation from the ylide substituent also resulted in geometric restrictions depending on the steric and electronic properties of the introduced substituents.

Synthesis, Reactivity, Functionalization, and ADMET Properties of Silicon-Containing Nitrogen Heterocycles.

Project description:Silicon-containing compounds have been largely ignored in drug design and development, despite their potential to improve not only the potency but also the physicochemical and ADMET ( absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity) properties of drug-like candidates because of the unique characteristics of silicon. This deficiency is in large part attributable to a lack of general methods for synthesizing diverse organosilicon structures. Accordingly, a new building block strategy has been developed that diverges from traditional approaches to incorporation of silicon into drug candidates. Flexible, multi-gram-scale syntheses of silicon-containing tetrahydroquinoline and tetrahydroisoquinoline building blocks are described, along with methods by which diversely functionalized silicon-containing nitrogen heterocycles can be rapidly built using common reactions optimized to accommodate the properties of silicon. Furthermore, to better clarify the liabilities and advantages of silicon incorporation, select compounds and their carbon analogues were challenged in ADMET-focused biological studies.

A Two-Step Synthesis of Unprotected 3-Aminoindoles via Post Functionalization with Nitrostyrene.

Project description:A novel, low-cost method for the preparation of not easily accessible free 3-aminoindoles has been developed. This approach is based on a well-established reaction between indoles and nitrostyrene in the presence of phosphorous acid, which results in the formation of 4'-phenyl-4'H-spiro[indole-3,5'-isoxazoles]. The latter could be transformed to corresponding aminated indoles by reaction with hydrazine hydrate in good or excellent yields upon microwave-assisted heating.

Chitosan-Stabilized Noble Metal Nanoparticles: Study of their Shape Evolution and Post-Functionalization Properties.

Project description:Noble metal anisotropic nanostructures have achieved a growing interest in both academic and industrial domains mostly because of their shape-dependent plasmonic properties in the near-infrared region. In this paper, gold and gold-silver anisotropic nanostructures were synthesized in very high shape-yields through a wet, seed-mediated approach based on the use of nearly spherical silver nanoparticles as seeds and chitosan as stabilizing agent. Two chitosans of different origin and molecular properties were selected for the synthetic pathway, leading to the formation of variously sized and shaped end products. In detail, quite homogeneous nanoplatelets of about 25-nm size and 7-nm thickness or nearly spherical, highly porous nanocages of about 50-nm size were obtained, depending on the type of polysaccharide employed. The shape transition towards anisotropic morphologies occurred through a slow, spontaneous process, in which the chitosan nature seemed to play a key role. As expected, both nanoplatelets and nanocages exhibit shape-dependent plasmonic features and surface properties tunable for a variety of application fields. To prove this point, the nanostructures were successfully post-functionalized with poly(10,12-pentacosadiynoic acid) (PCDA), a carboxylic-endowed diacetylene able to anchor on noble metal substrates, to obtain versatile, chromic platforms suitable for sensing and spectroscopic purposes.

Supraparticles from Cubic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Polymer Encapsulation, Functionalization, and Magnetic Properties.

Project description:Supraparticles (SPs) consisting of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are of great interest for biomedical applications and magnetic separation. To enable their functionalization with biomolecules and to improve their stability in aqueous dispersion, polymer shells are grown on the SPs' surface. Robust polymer encapsulation and functionalization is achieved via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), improving the reaction control compared to free radical polymerizations. This study presents the emulsion-based assembly of differently sized cubic SPIONs (12-30 nm) into SPs with diameters ranging from ∼200 to ∼400 nm using dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) as the surfactant. The successful formation of well-defined spherical SPs depends upon the method used for mixing the SPION dispersion with the surfactant solution and requires the precise adjustment of the surfactant concentration. After purification, the SPs are encapsulated by growing surface-grafted polystyrene shells via activators generated by electron transfer (AGET) ATRP. The polymer shell can be decorated with functional groups (azide and carboxylate) using monomer blends for the polymerization reaction. When the amount of the monomer is varied, the shell thickness as well as the interparticle distances between the encapsulated SPIONs can be tuned with nanometer-scale precision. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) reveals that cubic SPIONs form less ordered assemblies within the SPs than spherical SPIONs. As shown by vibrating sample magnetometer measurements, the encapsulated SPs feature the same superparamagnetic behavior as their SPION building blocks. The saturation magnetization ranges between 10 and 30 emu/g and depends upon the nanocubes' size and phase composition.

Phosphorus Post-Functionalization of Diphosphahexaarenes.

Project description:Diphosphahexaarenes are highly stable π-extended frameworks containing two six-membered phosphorus heterocycles that have emerged recently. Herein, we present a detailed investigation on the post-functionalization reactions of their phosphorus centers with special emphasis on the selectivity of the processes and the impact of the phosphorus functionalizations into the physicochemical properties. These studies reveal that indeed the phosphorus atoms of the diphosphahexaarenes are readily available to be functionalized with quaternizing and oxidizing agents as well as borane groups without compromising the stability of the system. In addition, the optoelectronic properties of the diphosphahexaarenes are impacted by the phosphorus post-modifications.

Rational synthesis of elusive organic-inorganic hybrid metal-oxo clusters: formation and post-functionalization of hexavanadates.

Project description:Paving the way towards new functional materials relies increasingly on the challenging task of forming organic-inorganic hybrid compounds. In that regard, discrete atomically-precise metal-oxo nanoclusters have received increasing attention due to the wide range of organic moieties that can be grafted onto them through functionalization reactions. The Lindqvist hexavanadate family of clusters, such as [V6O13{(OCH2)3C-R}2]2- (V6-R), is particularly interesting due to the magnetic, redox, and catalytic properties of these clusters. However, compared to other metal-oxo cluster types, V6-R clusters have been less extensively explored, which is mainly due to poorly understood synthetic challenges and the limited number of viable post-functionalization strategies. In this work, we present an in-depth investigation of the factors that influence the formation of hybrid hexavanadates (V6-R HPOMs) and leverage this knowledge to develop [V6O13{(OCH2)3CNHCOCH2Cl}2]2- (V6-Cl) as a new and tunable platform for the facile formation of discrete hybrid structures based on metal-oxo clusters in relatively high yields. Moreover, we showcase the versatility of the V6-Cl platform through its post-functionalization via nucleophilic substitution with various carboxylic acids of differing complexity and with functionalities that are relevant in multiple disciplines, such as supramolecular chemistry and biochemistry. Hence, V6-Cl was shown to be a straightforward and versatile starting point for the formation of functional supramolecular structures or other hybrid materials, thereby enabling their exploration in various fields.

Effects of Surface Functionalization of Lignin on Synthesis and Properties of Rigid Bio-Based Polyurethanes Foams.

Project description:We report the preparation of lignin-based rigid polyurethane (RPU) foams from surface functionalized kraft lignin via a simple and environmentally benign process. Lignin was functionalized with polyisocyanate at 80 °C for 1 h, the resulting lignin-polyisocyanate prepolymer was confirmed by increased viscosity and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The RPU foams containing up to 30% surface functionalized lignin as a substitute for petroleum-based polyols exhibited comparable thermal and mechanical properties to conventional RPU foams. The lignin-based RPU foams prepared from surface functionalization outperformed RPU foams without the surface functionalization, showing up to 47% and 45% higher specific compressive strength and modulus, respectively, with a 40% lignin substitution ratio. Thermal insulation and temperature-stability of the two types of the foams were comparable. The results indicate that the surface functionalization of lignin increases reactivity and homogeneity of the lignin as a building block in RPU foams. The life cycle assessment for the lignin-based RPU foams shows that the surface functionalization process would have overall lesser environmental impacts when compared with the traditional manufacturing of RPU foams with synthetic polyols. These findings suggest the potential use of surface functionalized lignin as a sustainable core material replacement for synthetic polyols in building materials.

Versatile Two-Step Functionalization of Nanocarbons: Grafting of Propargylic Groups and Click Post-Functionalization.

Project description:Chemical functionalization of nanocarbons is essential for further applications in various fields. We developed a facile, inexpensive, and gram-scale one-pot route towards alkynyl-functionalized nanocarbons. Nucleophilic addition/propargylic capture places alkyne moieties at the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene. Thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectrometry and Raman analysis confirmed the efficiency of this process. Conductivity measurements demonstrated the maintenance of the CNT electrical properties. The attached alkynyl moieties were reacted with various azide derivatives through the click-Huisgen [3+2] cycloaddition and characterized with XPS. The efficient addition of those derivatives enables the application of our finding in various fields. This route is a reliable and convenient alternative to the known diazonium functionalization and oxidation-esterification reactions to graft alkyne groups.

Synthesis and Functionalization of Periodic Copolymers.

Project description:For the copolymerization of non-conjugated olefins and maleimides, it is known that under certain conditions periodic ABA monomer sequences are formed. In this work, such a copolymerization is used to create polymers which have defined (periodic) monomer sequences and can be functionalized after polymerization. The copolymerization of pentafluorophenol (PFP) active esters of 4-pentenoic acid and perillic acid with N-phenyl maleimide (PhMI) was studied in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) and 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-phenyl-2-propanol (HFPP). In DCE and for the copolymerization of the PFP ester of 4-pentenoic acid and PhMI in HFPP, polymers were formed where the active esters were separated by at least one PhMI unit. The average number of separating PhMI units can be controlled by varying the feed ratio of the monomers. For the copolymerization of the PFP ester of perillic acid in HFPP, a preference for the formation of periodic copolymers was observed, where active esters were preferably separated from each other by a maximum of two PhMI moieties. Therefore, the copolymerization of said active ester containing monomers with PhMI provides a platform to create polymers in which reactive moieties are distributed along the polymer chain in different fashions. The active esters in the non-conjugated vinyl monomers could be used in a post-polymerization functionalization step to create functionalized polymers with defined monomer sequences in a modular way.
