- Photoluminescence of Seven-Coordinate Zirconium and Hafnium Complexes with 2,2′-Pyridylpyrrolide Ligands
-
Luminescent seven-coordinated zirconium and hafnium complexes bearing three mono-anionic 2,2′-pyridylpyrrolide ligands and one chloride were synthesized. Solid-state structures and the dynamic behaviors in solution were probed by X-ray crystallography and variable temperature 1H NMR experiments, respectively. Absorption spectroscopy and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations supported a hybrid of ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT)/ligand-to-ligand charge transfer (LLCT) for the visible light absorption band. The complexes (MePMPMe)3MCl (M=Zr, Hf, MePMPMe=3,5-dimethyl-2-(2-pyridyl)pyrrolide) are emissive in solution at room temperature upon irradiation with visible light due to a combination of phosphorescence and fluorescence characterized by excited state lifetimes in the μs and low to sub-ns timescale, respectively. Electrochemical experiments revealed that the zirconium complex possesses a reversible redox event under highly reducing condition (?2.29 V vs. Fc+/0).

- trans-Selective Aryldifluoroalkylation of Endocyclic Enecarbamates and Enamides by Nickel Catalysis
-
Efficient methods for the dicarbofuntionalization of the cyclic alkenes 2-pyrroline and 2-azetine are limited. Particularly, the dicarbofunctionalization of endocyclic enecarbamates to achieve fluorinated compounds remains an unsolved issue. Reported here is a nickel-catalyzed trans-selective dicarbofunctionalization of N-Boc-2-pyrroline and N-Boc-2-azetine, a class of endocyclic enecarbamates previously unexplored for transition metal catalyzed dicarbofunctionalization. The reaction can be extended to six- and seven-membered endocyclic enamides. A variety of arylzinc reagents and bromodifluoroacetate, and its derivatives, undergo the reaction, providing straightforward and efficient access to an array of pyrrolidine- and azetidine-containing fluorinated amino acids and oligopeptides, which may have applications in the life sciences.

The neutral complexes Ti(MePDP)2 and Zr(MePDP)2 (MePDP = 2,6-bis(5-methyl-3-phenyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)pyridine) show intense ligand-to-metal charge-transfer bands in the visible region and undergo multiple reversible redox events under highly reducing conditions. Zr(MePDP)2 exhibits photoluminescent behavior and its excited state can be quenched by mild reductants to generate a powerful electron transfer reagent with a ground state potential of -2.16 V vs Fc+/0. This reactivity was utilized to facilitate dehalogenation reactions, the reduction of electron-poor olefins, and the reductive coupling of benzyl bromide via photoredox catalysis. In these reactions, the earth-abundant metal complex Zr(MePDP)2 acts as a substitute for the precious metal photosensitizer [Ru(bpy)3]2+.

Iododifluoroacetates 1a-c react with alkenes and zinc in the presence of nickel dichloride hexahydrate in THF at room temperature or 60 deg C to give the corresponding α,α-difluoro esters in good yields.The reaction is also applicable to alkenes containing a variety of functional groups such as trimethylsilyl, hydroxy, ketone, and ester moieties.The reaction of 1 works well with dienes; the products formed depend on the length of chain of the dienes. 1,8-Nonadiene and 1,5-hexadiene afford the α,α,ω,ω-tetrafluoro diesters, while 1,6-heptadiene gave a mixture of ethyl 2,2-difluoro-8-nonenoate (19) and the cyclopentyl-substituted α,α-difluoroester 20.When diallyl ether was used as a substrate, only the tetrahydrofuran derivative 21 was formed.The nickel-catalyzed reaction can be suppressed by p-dinitrobenzene and hydroquinone.A single electron transfer initiated radical mechanism is proposed.

- ADDITION OF 1,2-DIBROMO-1-CHLOROTRIFLUOROETHANE TO CHLOROTRIFLUOROETHYLENE INDUCED BY UV-RADIATION. SYNTHESIS OF PERFLUORO-1,3-BUTADIENE AND PERFLUORO-1,3,5-HEXATRIENE
-
Photochemically initiated reaction of 1,2-dibromo-1-chlorotrifluoroethane (II) with chlorotrifluoroethylene (I) gave 38percent 1,4-dibromo-2,3-dichlorohexafluorobutane (III) and 19percent 1,6-dibromo-2,3,5-trichlorononafluorohexane (IV) in addition to the higher telomers.Dehalogenations of III and IV yielded perfluoro-1,3-butadiene (VI) and perfluoro-1,3,5-hexatriene (VIII) with 3-chlorononafluoro-1,5-hexadiene (VII), respectively.Photochemical reduction of butane III with 2-propanol resulted in a preferential reduction of C-Br bonds, and from 2,3-dichloro-1,1,2,3,4,4-hexafluorobutane (IX) thus formed, esters of difluoroacetic acid were prepared by dehalogenation of IX and subsequent oxidation and esterification of the product.The photochemical reduction of hexane IV gave a mixture of 79percent trichlorononafluorohexane XII and 21percent dichlorononafluorohexane XIII.The mechanism of formation of the unusual products of the title addition reaction is discussed.

- THE FACILE PREPARATION OF HF FREE POLYFLUORINATED ACYL FLUORIDES
-
The reaction of polyfluorinated acids with the Ishikawa Reagent (FAR) in the presence of NaF gives 59 - 91 percent isolated yields of HF free polyfluorinated acyl fluorides.The reaction is rapid, safe, easily scaled up, and amenable to a one-pot procedure.
