Cocondensation reactions of heterocyclic aromatic compounds with lithium, calcium and magnesium atoms at 77 K
Mendoza, Oscar,Tacke, Matthias
, p. 1110 - 1116 (2006)
Calcium and magnesium atoms were cocondensed with aromatic heterocycles containing five- and six-membered rings in the presence of THF at 77 K. In the case of calcium the cocondensation with five-membered heterocyclic compounds resulted in C-H bond activations and led to the corresponding aryl calcium compounds, while magnesium did not show comparable reactions. When six-membered heterocyclic compounds, e.g., pyridine and 4-methylpyridine (4-picoline) were cocondensed with calcium, magnesium and lithium atoms, all reactions led to the formation of non-metallated aromatic products and the formation of metal hydride. DFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G** level of theory were carried out in order to interpret the pathways of the cocondensation reactions using calcium atoms and identify the possible intermediates involved. In all reactions π- and σ-complexes between calcium atoms and the heterocyclic aromatic reactant were found as stable intermediates on the energy hypersurface.

Thiophenylazobenzene: An Alternative Photoisomerization Controlled by Lone-Pair???π Interaction

Azoheteroarene photoswitches have attracted attention due to their unique properties. We present the stationary photochromism and ultrafast photoisomerization mechanism of thiophenylazobenzene (TphAB). It demonstrates impressive fatigue resistance and photoisomerization efficiency, and shows favorably separated (E)- and (Z)-isomer absorption bands, allowing for highly selective photoconversion. The (Z)-isomer of TphAB adopts an unusual orthogonal geometry where the thiophenyl group is perfectly perpendicular to the phenyl group. This geometry is stabilized by a rare lone-pair???π interaction between the S atom and the phenyl group. The photoisomerization of TphAB occurs on the sub-ps to ps timescale and is governed by this interaction. Therefore, the adoption and disruption of the orthogonal geometry requires significant movement along the inversion reaction coordinates (CNN and NNC angles). Our results establish TphAB as an excellent photoswitch with versatile properties that expand the application possibilities of AB derivatives.

Chemoselective Ketone Synthesis by the Addition of Organometallics to N-Acylazetidines

A general and highly chemoselective method for the synthesis of ketones by the addition of organometallics to N-acylazetidines via stable tetrahedral intermediates is reported for the first time. The transformation is characterized by its wide substrate scope and exquisite selectivity for the ketone products even when a large excess of nucleophilic reagents is used. Even of broader interest is the use of N-acylazetidines as bench-stable, readily available amide acylating reagents, in which the reactivity is controlled by amide pyramidalization and strain of the four-membered ring to afford synthetically valuable building blocks.
