- REACTIVITE DES ESTERS SULFONIQUES ET PYROSULFONIQUES PERFLUORES RFSO3RF ET RFSO3SO3RF. HETEROLYSE DE LA LIAION S-O
-
Perfluoroalkyl perfluoroalkanesulfonates RFSO3R'F (RF, R'F = CF3, C2F5) and perfluoroalkyl perfluoroalkanepyrosulfonates RFSO3SO3RF, mixed with perfluoroalkanesulfonic acids (CF3SO3H or C2F5SO3H) decompose thermally.Depending on the starting materials, different products result from nucleophilic attack of a perfluoroalkanesulfonate anion of the acid on the sulfur atom of the sulfonate group of the ester, with heterolysis of the S-O bond.Therefore, under these conditions, the perfluorinated esters are not perfloroalkylating agents, but rather perfluorosulfonylating agents.

- The vibrational spectrum of trifluoromethanesulphonic acid, CF3SO3H, and the determination of its degrees of discociation in aqueous solution by Raman spectroscopy
-
The Raman and i.r. spectra of trifluoromethanesulphonic acid, CF3SO3H, have been obtained, and vibrational assignments made which are consistent with Cs molecular symmetry.The degrees of dissociation of CF3SO3H in aqueous solution in the concentration range 1.8-11.1 M were determined from Raman intensity measurements on the Δν = 1034 cm-1 band characteristic of the CF3SO3- ion.The results confirm that CF3SO3H is more dissociated into CF3SO3- ions than CH3SO3H is into CH3SO3- at similar concentrations.A limiting value of Kc = 280 mol dm-3 is calculated for low acid concentrations of CF3SO3H.

- Perfluoroalkanesulfonylimids and their lithium salts: Synthesis and characterisation of intermediates and target compounds
-
ECF processes have been extensively experienced and developed since early 1970s at the Fluorine Chemistry Laboratory of Padua University: several classes of perfluorinated inert and functional compounds have been obtained, in particular perfluoro heterocyclics and perfluorinated acid fluorides.Recently the demand for electrolyte salts, applied in lithium batteries, drove our interest to investigate on the perfluoroalkanesulfonylimides.A series of the perfluoroalkanesulfonylfluoride precursors has been obtained by ECF and their metathesis to the related imides and lithium salts has been investigated.A number of representative products has been obtained and characterized in their structure and ionic conductivity.

- Thermodynamics of methanesulfonic acid revisited
-
Recently we reported a study of the thermodynamics of methanesulfonic acid and some of its derivatives. The foundation of these results was a measurement of the heat of reaction of S-methyl thioacetate with aq sodium hypochlorite, leading to methanesulfonic acid. We have reinvestigated this reaction and discovered that contrary to the initial stoichiometry experiments, the stoichiometry under the reaction conditions is not as was believed and that the heat of reaction observed was spuriously high. We have found a new reaction, that of sulfite ion with methyl methanesulfonate, which does allow a clean determination of the heat of formation of methanesulfonic acid. Revised thermodynamic quantities for methanesulfonic acid, methanesulfonyl chloride, and methyl methanesulfonate are reported here.

- Remarkable Acid Catalysis in Proton-Coupled Electron-Transfer Reactions of a Chromium(III)-Superoxo Complex
-
Much enhanced acid catalysis was observed in oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reactions by a mononuclear nonheme Cr(III)-superoxo complex, [(Cl)(TMC)CrIII(O2)]+ (1), in the presence of triflic acid. In the acid-catalyzed reactions, the reactivity of 1 in OAT of thioanisole was enhanced significantly, showing more than 104-fold acceleration in rate. Electron transfer (ET) from electron donors to 1 also occurred only in the presence of HOTf. The enhanced reactivity of 1 by HOTf was explained by proton-coupled electron transfer from electron donors, such as ferrocene, to 1 in light of the Marcus theory of ET. The present study reports for the first time the dramatic proton effect on the chemical properties of metal-superoxo species.

- Water determines the products: An unexpected Br?nsted acid-catalyzed PO-R cleavage of P(iii) esters selectively producing P(O)-H and P(O)-R compounds
-
Water is found able to determine the selectivity of Br?nsted acid-catalyzed C-O cleavage reactions of trialkyl phosphites: with water, the reaction quickly takes place at room temperature to afford quantitative yields of H-phosphonates; without water, the reaction selectively affords alkylphosphonates in high yields, providing a novel halide-free alternative to the famous Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction. This method is general as it can be readily extended to phosphonites and phosphinites and a large scale reaction with much lower loading of the catalyst, enabling a simple, efficient, and practical preparation of the corresponding organophosphorus compounds. Experimental findings in control reactions and substrate extension as well as preliminary theoretical calculation of the possible transition states all suggest that the monomolecular mechanism is preferred.

Nostosins A and B were isolated from a hydrophilic extract of Nostoc sp. strain from Iran, which exhibits excellent trypsin inhibitory activity. Nostosin A was the most potent natural tripeptide aldehyde as trypsin inhibitor up to now. Both R- and S-2-hydroxy-4-(4-hydroxy-phenyl)butanoic acid (Hhpba) were prepared and incorporated into the total synthesis of nostosin B, respectively. Careful comparison of the NMR spectra and optical rotation data of synthetic nostosin B (1a and 1b) with the natural product led to the unambiguous identification of the R-configuration of the Hhpba fragment, which was further confirmed by co-injection with the authentic sample on HPLC using both reversed phase column and the chiral AD-RH column.

- Thiolate-bridged dinuclear ruthenium and iron complexes as robust and efficient catalysts toward oxidation of molecular dihydrogen in protic solvents
-
Thiolate-bridged dinuclear ruthenium and iron complexes are found to work as efficient catalysts toward oxidation of molecular dihydrogen in protic solvents such as water and methanol under ambient reaction conditions. Heterolytic cleavage of the coordinated molecular dihydrogen at the dinuclear complexes and the sequential oxidation of the produced hydride complexes are involved as key steps to promote the present catalytic reaction. The catalytic activity of the dinuclear complexes toward the chemical oxidation of molecular dihydrogen achieves up to 10000 TON (turnover number), and electrooxidation of molecular dihydrogen proceeds quite rapidly. The result of the density functional theory (DFT) calculation on the reaction pathway indicates that a synergistic effect between the two ruthenium atoms plays an important role to realize the catalytic oxidation of molecular dihydrogen efficiently. The present dinuclear ruthenium complex is found to work as an efficient organometallic anode catalyst for the fuel cell. It is noteworthy that the present dinuclear complex worked not only as an effective catalyst toward chemical and electrochemical oxidation of molecular dihydrogen but also as a good anode catalyst for the fuel cell. We consider that the result described in this paper provides useful and valuable information to develop highly efficient and low-cost transition metal complexes as anode catalysts in the fuel cell.

- Synthesis and reactivity studies of dicationic dihydrogen complexes bearing sulfur-donor ligands: A combined experimental and computational study

A series of dihydrogen complexes trans-[Ru(η2-H 2){SC(SR)H}(dppe)2][X][BF4] (R = CH 3, X = OTf; R = C6H5CH2, X = BPh4; R = H2C=CHCH2, X = BPh4; dppe = Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2) bearing sulfur-donor ligands has been synthesized by protonation of the (alkyl dithioformate)hydrido complexes trans-[Ru(H){SC(SR)H}(dppe)2][X] by using HBF4·Et2O. Competitive substitution reactions between H2 and SC(SR)H in trans-[Ru(η2-H 2){SC(SR)H}(dppe)2][X][BF4] have been studied by treatment with CH3CN, CO, and P(OCH3)3. These resulted in the expulsion of SC(SR)H from the metal center, thus indicating that the alkyl dithioformate ligand is more labile than H 2. Bonding of alkyl dithioformate ligands (sulfur-donor ligands) trans to H2 have been studied by comparing the H-H distances and chemical-shift values (1H NMR spectroscopy) of the various dihydrogen complexes bearing different trans ligands. This study qualitatively suggests that the alkyl dithioformate ligands in these trans-dihydrogen complexes show a poor π effect, and it is further supported by density functional theory calculations. The first example of a dihydrogen complex bearing dithioformic acid, trans-[Ru(η2-H2){SC(SH)H}(dppe) 2][BF4]2, was obtained by protonation of trans-[Ru(H){SC(S)H}(dppe)2] by using HBF4·Et 2O.

Fluoroform (CF3H), a large-volume by-product of the manufacture of Teflon, refrigerants, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), fire-extinguishing agents, and foams, is a potent and stable greenhouse gas that has found little practical use despite the growing importance of trifluoromethyl (CF3) functionality in more structurally elaborate pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials. Direct nucleophilic trifluoromethylation using CF3H has been a challenge. Here, we report on a direct trifluoromethylation protocol using close to stoichiometric amounts of CF3H in common organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether, and toluene. The methodology is widely applicable to a variety of silicon, boron, and sulfur-based electrophiles, as well as carbon-based electrophiles.

The generation of a hidden Bronsted acid as a true catalytic species in hydroalkoxylation reactions from metal precatalysts has been clarified in case studies. The mechanism of triflic acid (CF3SO3H or HOTf) generation starting either from AgOTf in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) or from a Cp*RuCl2/AgOTf/phosphane combination in toluene has been elucidated. The deliberate and controlled generation of HOTf from AgOTf and cocatalytic amounts of tert-butyl chloride in the cold or from AgOTf in DCE at elevated temperatures results in a hidden Bronsted acid catalyst useful for mechanistic control experiments or for synthetic applications.

- Photochemistry of triarylsulfonium salts
-
The photolysis of triphenylsulfonium, tris(4-methylphenyl)sulfonium, tris(4-chlorophenyl)sulfonium, several monosubstituted (4-F, 4-Cl, 4-Me, 4-MeO, 4-PhS, and 4-PhCO), and disubstituted (4,4′-Me2 and 4,4′-(MeO)2) triphenylsulfonium salts was examined in solution. It was found that direct irradiation of triphenylsulfonium salts produced new rearrangement products, phenylthiobiphenyls, along with diphenyl sulfide, which had been previously reported. Similarly, the triarylsulfonium salts, with the exception of the [4-(phenylthio)phenyl]diphenylsulfonium salts, gave the new rearrangement products. The mechanism for direct photolysis is proposed to occur from the singlet excited state to give a predominant heterolytic cleavage along with some homolytic cleavage. The heterolytic cleavage gives phenyl cation and diphenyl sulfide, whereas homolytic cleavage gives the singlet phenyl radical and diphenylsulfinyl radical cation pair. These pairs of intermediates then produce the observed photoproducts by an in-cage recombination mechanism and also by reactions with the solvent. The effect of solvent viscosity, solvent polarity, anion, and aryl substituent was examined. The triplet sensitization of the sulfonium salts was also investigated. In contrast to previous reports, the triplet state of the sulfonium salt is labile, leading to a triplet geminate radical pair of phenyl radical and diphenylsulfinyl radical cation. These species ultimately form benzene and diphenyl sulfide as products. Direct photolysis of the [4-(phenylthio)phenyl]diphenylsulfonium salt, gave exclusively diphenyl sulfide, benzene, and acid and decomposes via the triplet excited state.

- Intermolecular activation of C-D bonds in benzene-d6 by trans-neopentyl(trifluoromethanesulfonato)bis(trimethyl-phosphine) platinum (II)
-
trans-(Me3P)2Pt(CH2C(CH3) 3)(SO3CF3) (L2PtNpTf, 1) reacts with benzene-d6 at 133°C and gives trans-(Me3P)2Pt(C6D5)(SO 3CF3) (2) and neopentane-d1 as the major products. When this reaction is carried out in concentrated solutions ([1]0 ≥ 0.04 M), small quantities of neopentane-d0 (8-17%) and 1,1-dimethylcyclopropane (1-3%) are also detected; larger quantities of neopentane-d0 are produced (32-45%) when the initial concentration of 1 is low ([1]0 = 0.01-0.03 M). The rate of reaction is decreased by the addition of Bu4N+Tr- and increased by the addition of Bu4N+BF4-. A competitive kinetic isotope effect was estimated by allowing 1 to react with C6D5H and comparing the relative yields of neopentane-d0 and neopentane-d1: kH/kD is large, but its quantitative value is uncertain because of experimental ambiguities. The mechanism for this reaction seems to involve generation of L2PtNp+ as an essential intermediate. This intermediate appears to react with benzene by direct oxidative addition of a C-H bond, but electrophilic attack on the benzene ring cannot be rigorously excluded.
