- Three-State Switchable Chiral Stationary Phase Based on Helicity Control of an Optically Active Poly(phenylacetylene) Derivative by Using Metal Cations in the Solid State
-
An unprecedented three-state switchable chiral stationary phase (CSP) for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed using a helical poly(phenylacetylene) bearing a chiral (R)-α-methoxyphenylacetic acid residue as the pendant (poly-1). The left- and right-handed helical conformations were induced in poly-1-based CSP upon coordination with a catalytic amount of soluble sodium and cesium tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate salts (MBArF), respectively, which are soluble in the HPLC conditions [hexane-2-propanol (95:5, v/v)]. The switch between the two different helical states of poly-1 can be easily achieved by rinsing the poly-1-based CSP with MeOH and the subsequent addition of the proper MBArF salt. Using this dynamic helical CSP, we demonstrate how changes on the orientation of the secondary structure of a chiral polymer (right-handed, left-handed, and racemic helices) can alter and even invert the elution order of the enantiomers. This study was done without adding chiral additives or changing the mobile phase, which could produce changes on the retention times and make it more difficult to determine the role of the secondary structure during the chiral recognition process.

- Adaptive Behavior of Dynamic Orthoester Cryptands
-
The integration of dynamic covalent bonds into macrocycles has been a tremendously successful strategy for investigating noncovalent interactions and identifying effective host–guest pairs. While numerous studies have focused on the dynamic responses of macrocycles and larger cages to various guests, the corresponding constitutionally dynamic chemistry of cryptands remains unexplored. Reported here is that cryptands based on orthoester bridgeheads offer an elegant entry to experiments in which a metal ion selects its preferred host from a dynamic mixture of competing subcomponents. In such dynamic mixtures, the alkali metal ions Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+exhibit pronounced preferences for the formation of cryptands of certain sizes and donor numbers, and the selection is rationalized by DFT calculations. Reported is also the first self-assembly of a chiral orthoester cryptate and a preliminary study on the use of stereoisomers as subcomponents.

- Neutral thioether and selenoether macrocyclic coordination to Group 1 cations (Li-Cs)-synthesis, spectroscopic and structural properties
-
The complexes [M(L)][BArF] (BArF = tetrakis{3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl}borate), L = [18]aneO4S2 (1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-dithiacyclooctadecane): M = Li-Cs; L = [18]aneO2S4 (1,10-dioxa-4,7,13,16-tetrathiacyclooctadecane): M = Li, Na, K; L = [18]aneO4Se2 (1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diselenacyclooctadecane): M = Na, K, as well as [Na(18-crown-6)][BArF], are obtained in good yield as crystalline solids by reaction of M[BArF] with the appropriate macrocycle in dry CH2Cl2. X-ray crystallographic analyses of [Li([18]aneO4S2)][BArF] and [Li([18]aneO2S4)][BArF] show discrete distorted octahedral cations with hexadentate coordination to the macrocycle. The heavier alkali metal complexes all contain hexadentate coordination of the heterocrown, supplemented by M...F interactions via the anions, producing extended structures with higher coordination numbers; Na: CN = 7 or 8; K: CN = 8; Rb: CN = 9; Cs: CN = 8 or 10. Notably, all of the structures exhibit significant M-S/Se coordination. The crystal structures of the potassium and rubidium complexes show two distinct [M(heterocrown)]+ cations, one with M...F interactions to two mutually cis [BArF]- anions, and the other with mutually trans [BArF]- anions, giving 1D chain polymers. Solution multinuclear (1H, 13C, 7Li, 23Na, 133Cs) NMR data show that the macrocyclic coordination is retained in CH2Cl2 solution.

- Supramolecularly Regulated Ligands for Asymmetric Hydroformylations and Hydrogenations
-
Herein we report the use of polyether binders as regulation agents (RAs) to enhance the enantioselectivity of rhodium-catalyzed transformations. For reactions of diverse substrates mediated by rhodium complexes of the α,ω-bisphosphite-polyether ligands 1-5,a-d, the enantiomeric excess (ee) of hydroformylations was increased by up to 82 (substrate: vinyl benzoate, 96ee), and the ee value of hydrogenations was increased by up to 5 (substrate: N-(1-(naphthalene-1-yl)vinyl)acetamide, 78ee). The ligand design enabled the regulation of enantioselectivity by generation of an array of catalysts that simultaneously preserve the advantages of a privileged structure in asymmetric catalysis and offer geometrically close catalytic sites. The highest enantioselectivities in the hydroformylation of vinyl acetate with ligand 4b were achieved by using the Rb[B(3,5-(CF3)2C6H3)4] (RbBArF) as the RA. The enantioselective hydrogenation of the substrates 10 required the rhodium catalysts derived from bisphosphites 3a or 4a, either alone or in combination with different RAs (sodium, cesium, or (R,R)-bis(1-phenylethyl)ammonium salts). This design approach was supported by results from computational studies.
