Project description:The preparation of high-performance fluorinated poly(aryl thioethers) has received little attention compared to the corresponding poly(aryl ethers), despite the excellent physical properties displayed by many polysulfides. Herein, we report a highly efficient route to fluorinated poly(aryl thioethers) via an organocatalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution of silyl-protected dithiols. This approach requires low catalyst loadings, proceeds rapidly at room temperature, and is effective for many different perfluorinated or highly activated aryl monomers. Computational investigations of the reaction mechanism reveal an unexpected, concerted SNAr mechanism, with the organocatalyst playing a critical, dual-activation role in facilitating the process. Not only does this remarkable reactivity enable rapid access to fluorinated poly(aryl thioethers), but also opens new avenues for the processing, fabrication, and functionalization of fluorinated materials with easy removal of the volatile catalyst and TMSF byproducts.Fluorinated poly(aryl thioethers), unlike their poly(aryl ethers) counterparts, have received little attention despite excellent physical properties displayed by many polysulfides. Here the authors show a highly efficient route to fluorinated poly(aryl thioethers) via an organocatalyzed nucleophilic aromatic substitution of silyl-protected dithiols.

Project description:Transformation of aryl alcohols into high-value functionalized aromatic compounds by selective cleavage and functionalization of the C(aryl)-C(OH) bond is of crucial importance, but very challenging by far. Herein, for the first time, we report a novel and versatile strategy for activation and functionalization of C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds by the cooperation of oxygenation and decarboxylative functionalization. A diverse range of aryl alcohol substrates were employed as arylation reagents via the cleavage of C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds and effectively converted into corresponding thioether, arene, and arylated benzoxazole products in excellent yields, in a Cu based catalytic system using O2 as the oxidant. This study offers a new way for aryl alcohol conversion and potentially offers a new opportunity to produce high-value functionalized aromatics from renewable feedstocks such as lignin which features abundant C(aryl)-C(OH) bonds in its linkages.

Project description:In the title compound, C15H12N2S2, the two phenyl rings and the planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.002 Å) thia-diazole ring adopt a propeller conformation about the central C-H axis with H-C-C-C(phen-yl) torsion angles of 44 and 42° and an H-C-N-C(thia-diazole) torsion angle of 28°. Intra-molecular C-H⋯S and C-H⋯N contacts are observed. In the crystal, centrosymmetrically related mol-ecules associate through C-H⋯π inter-actions. These are connected into a supra-molecular chain along [101] by C-H⋯N inter-actions.

Project description:In the title compound, C(4)H(6)N(2)OS(2), the dihedral angle between the five-membered heterocyclic ring and the plane of the eth-oxy group is 4.9 (2)°. The 1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thione unit is planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.011 Å from the corresponding squares plane defined by the seven constituent atoms. In the crystal, pairs of N-H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into inversion dimers.

Project description:In the title compound, C(4)H(4)N(6)S(2)·4H(2)O, the complete organic mol-ecule is generated by crystallographic twofold symmetry and the dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 10.24 (3)°. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯N, N-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions [centroid-centroid separations = 3.530 (3) and 3.600 (3) Å] are observed.

Project description:Access to original ortho thioether derivatives was achieved through a [3,3]-rearrangement in a one-pot two-step protocol. Several aryl-SCF3 compounds are reported by variation of the nitrile or of the trifluoroalkyl sulfoxide starting material. The variation of the perfluoroalkyl chain was also possible.

Project description:The title unsymmetrical tetra-thia-fulvalene (TTF), C(7)H(2)N(2)S(7), contains fused 1,2,5-thia-diazole and 1,3-dithiole rings and is a component mol-ecule for conducting organic solids. The TTF mol-ecule is disordered crystallographically over two orientations related by an inversion center, where each site is half-occupied. The mol-ecule is almost planar with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.096 Å. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by short inter-molecular S⋯S inter-actions [3.47 (2), 3.507 (8) and 3.517 (13) Å].

Project description:In the title compound, C(14)H(15)N(3)S, the imidazo[2,1-b][1,3,4]thia-diazole fused-ring system is close to planar, with a maximum deviation of 0.042 (1) Å, and the dihedral angle between it and the phenyl ring is 24.21 (6)°. The isobutyl group is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.899 (9):0.101 (9) ratio. In the crystal, weak aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions involving the imidazole and thia-diazole rings with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.8067 (7) Å occur.

Project description:There are two 5-amino-1,3,4-thia-diazole-2(3H)-thiolate anions in the asymmetric unit of the title compound, Na(+)·C(2)H(2)N(3)S(2) (-)·2H(2)O, which are almost perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle = 84.64 (6)°]. The two Na(+) cations are in distorted fourfold coordinations by O atoms of the water molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by N-H⋯S, O-H⋯N and O-H⋯S hydrogen bonds.
