- Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Iodination of Aryl Carboxylic Acids Enabled by Ligand-Assisted Halide Exchange
-
We report an efficient and broadly applicable palladium-catalyzed iodination of inexpensive and abundant aryl and vinyl carboxylic acids via in situ activation to the acid chloride and formation of a phosphonium salt. The use of 1-iodobutane as iodide source in combination with a base and a deoxychlorinating reagent gives access to a wide range of aryl and vinyl iodides under Pd/Xantphos catalysis, including complex drug-like scaffolds. Stoichiometric experiments and kinetic analysis suggest a unique mechanism involving C?P reductive elimination to form the Xantphos phosphonium chloride, which subsequently initiates an unusual halogen exchange by outer sphere nucleophilic substitution.

- Generation of Organozinc Reagents from Arylsulfonium Salts Using a Nickel Catalyst and Zinc Dust
-
Readily available aryldimethylsulfonium triflates react with zinc powder under nickel catalysis via the selective cleavage of the sp2-hybridized carbon-sulfur bond to produce salt-free arylzinc triflates under mild conditions. This zincation displays superb chemoselectivity and thus represents a protocol that is complementary or orthogonal to existing methods. The generated arylzinc reagents show both high reactivity and chemoselectivity in palladium-catalyzed and copper-mediated cross-coupling reactions.

- Mechanism of Cu-catalyzed aryl boronic acid halodeboronation using electrophilic halogen: Development of a base-catalyzed iododeboronation for radiolabeling applications
-
An investigation into the mechanism of Cu-catalyzed aryl boronic acid halodeboronation using electrophilic halogen reagents is reported. Evidence is provided to show that this takes place via a boronate-driven ipso-substitution pathway and that Cu is not required for these processes to operate: General Lewis base catalysis is operational. This in turn allows the rational development of a general, simple, and effective base-catalyzed halodeboronation that is amenable to the preparation of 125I-labeled products for SPECT applications.

- Photochromic dithienylethenes characterized by: In situ irradiation NMR-spectroscopy and electrochemically induced responsiveness on gold substrates
-
Photochromic compounds comprising small molecules and polymers have been shown to be of great interest in the field of stimuli-responsive materials for applications as sensors and (nano-) devices. In this regard dithienylethenes (DTEs) have been proven to be especially valuable because of their tolerance to chemicals and their good stability making them tunable and reversibly switchable between an open and a closed structure featuring different optical properties. By utilizing a potent in situ irradiation NMR spectroscopy approach, it is possible to determine the photochromic switching capability of two DTE derivatives in solution leading to crucial information about the structures, the equilibria of the chemical ring-opening and closing of the DTEs as well as the longtime stability of these molecular switches. In particular the perfluorinated thioether bearing compound shows remarkable stability with little fatigue related to the irreversibly cyclized byproduct known for DTEs. The thioether-bearing DTEs can be deprotected and used for immobilization on gold substrates which are characterized by water contact angle measurements prior to and after DTE functionalization. Finally, the electrochemically induced switching capability of the perhydro DTE is investigated by cyclic voltammetry proving its fast, quantitative and reversible cyclization. We envisage these materials for applications as sensors and optical switching devices.

- A practical and general ipso iodination of arylboronic acids using N-iodomorpholinium iodide (NIMI) as a novel iodinating agent: mild and regioselective synthesis of aryliodides
-
A mild and efficient protocol for the ipso-iodination of aryl boronic acids using N-iodomorpholinium iodide (NIMI) generated in situ from morpholine and molecular iodine as a novel iodinating agent has been developed. The addition of a catalytic amount of copper iodide found to promote rate enhancement of the iodination reaction and dramatic increase in the yield depending upon the nature of the boronic acid was observed. The mechanistic study revealed that depending upon the nature of the substrate, either the classical ipso substitution or copper catalysed iododeborylation pathway overall dominates the present iodination reaction. The features such as mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, high to excellent yields, excellent functional group compatibility and low catalyst loading make this method potentially useful in organic synthesis.

-
A general, rapid, and efficient method for the copper-catalyzed Finkelstein reaction of (hetero)aromatics has been developed using continuous flow to generate a variety of aryl iodides. The described method can tolerate a broad spectrum of functional groups, including N-H and O-H groups. Additionally, in lieu of isolation, the aryl iodide solutions were used in two distinct multistep continuous-flow processes (amidation and Mg-I exchange/nucleophilic addition) to demonstrate the flexibility of this method.

- Synthesis and preliminary testing of molecular wires and devices
-
Presented here are several convergent synthetic routes to conjugated oligo(phenylene ethynylene)s. Some of these oligomers are free of functional groups, while others possess donor groups, acceptor groups, porphyrin interiors, and other heterocyclic interiors for various potential transmission and digital device applications. The syntheses of oligo(phenylene ethynylene)s with a variety of end groups for attachment to numerous metal probes and surfaces are presented. Some of the functionalized molecular systems showed linear, wire-like, current versus voltage (I(V)) responses, while others exhibited nonlinear I(V) curves for negative differential resistance (NDR) and molecular random access memory effects. Finally, the syntheses of functionalized oligomers are described that can form self-assembled monolayers on metallic electrodes that reduce the Schottky barriers. Information from the Schottky barrier studies can provide useful insight into molecular alligator clip optimizations for molecuar electronics.
