Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization, and reactivity of α,α′-diamino-p-tetrafluoroquinodimethane, a p-tetrafluorophenylene-bridged monosubstituted carbene-based Thiele's hydrocarbon A. The compound exhibits a reversible two-step one-electron oxidation with a marginally stable radical cation state B. The in situ formation of the radical cation could be confirmed by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Interestingly, α,α′-diamino-p-tetrafluoroquinodimethane fixates atmospheric oxygen to form a 16-membered peroxide-bridged macrocyclic compound C.

Macrocycles that assemble into nanotubes exhibit emergent properties stemming from their low dimensionality, structural regularity, and distinct interior environments. We report a versatile strategy to synthesize diverse nanotube structures in a single, efficient reaction by using a conserved building block bearing a pyridine ring. Imine condensation of a 2,4,6-triphenylpyridine-based diamine with various aromatic dialdehydes yields chemically distinct pentagonal [5 + 5], hexagonal [3 + 3], and diamond-shaped [2 + 2] macrocycles depending on the substitution pattern of the aromatic dialdehyde monomer. Atomic force microscopy and in solvo X-ray diffraction demonstrate that protonation of the macrocycles under the mild conditions used for their synthesis drives assembly into high-aspect ratio nanotubes. Each of the pyridine-containing nanotube assemblies exhibited measurable proton conductivity by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, with values as high as 10-3 S m-1 (90% R.H., 25 °C) that we attribute to differences in their internal pore sizes. This synthetic strategy represents a general method to access robust nanotube assemblies from a universal pyridine-containing monomer, which will enable systematic investigations of their emergent properties.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A synthesis of perfluoro[2.2]paracyclophane has been sought ever since the partially fluorinated octafluoro[2.2]- paracyclophane (AF4) was prepared and its chemistry studied. This compound has now been prepared in 39% yield from the precursor, 1,4-bis(chlorodifluoromethyl) -2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene by its reaction with Zn when heated in acetonitrile at 100°C. Two preparations of the precursor, first from 1,4-dicyano-2,3,5,6- tetrachlorobenzene and an improved method beginning from 1,2,4,5- tetrachlorobenzene, are also described as are key comparisons to our related synthesis of AF4.

A composition comprising perfluoro-[2,2]-paracyclophane dimer compound is disclosed. The synthesis reaction of the paracyclophane dimer from 1,4-bis(chlorodifluoromethane)-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene involves heating in the presence of a metal catalyst and a solvent. A perfluorinated paraxylylene coating formed from the perfluorinated paracyclophane dimer is also disclosed.

Definitive evidence for the contribution of biradical character in a closed-shell molecule, derivative of 1,4,-bis-(4,5-diphenylimidazol-2-ylidene)cyclohexa-2,5-diene

This study provides conclusive proof that the thermally excited open-shell state with biradical character is contributing to the ground state of a closed-shell molecule, tF-BDPI-2Y, where four hydrogen atoms at the central phenylene ring are substituted with four fluorine atoms of 1,4-bis-(4,5-diphenylimidazol-2-ylidene)cyclohexa-2,5-diene (BDPI-2Y). A small increase in the population of biradical species of tF-BDPI-2Y results in the formation of the dimer form by the radical recombination reaction. Controlling the equilibrium between a closed-shell diamagnetic-quinoid state and an open-shell paramagnetic-biradical state will provide significant progress in the field of π-conjugated delocalized biradical chemistry.

Fluorinated molecules relevant to conducting polymer research
Krebs, Frederik C.,Jensen, Thomas
, p. 77 - 84 (2007/10/03)
The synthesis of versatile fluorine compounds for conducting polymer research on fluorinated materials is presented. 1,2,4,5-Tetrafluorobenzene was converted to 1,2,4,5-tetrafluorobenzaldehyde (1) and protected as an acetal. This gave the acetals 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(1,3-dioxol-2-yl)benzene (2a) and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)benzene (2b). Compounds 2a and 2b were converted into the semiprotected 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthaldehydes: 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3-(1,3-dioxol-2-yl)-6-formylbenzene (3a) and 1,2,4,5- tetrafluoro-3-(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)-6-formylbenzene (3b). While 3a was easily deprotected to give 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoroterephthaldehyde (4) compound 3b proved very resilient to hydrolysis and gave a 1:1 mixture of 4 and 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-bis(5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-2-yl)benzene (5). Compound 4 was reduced to 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-dihydroxymethylbenzene (6) and converted into 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-dibromomethylbenzene (7). Compound 7 was finally converted into 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-3,6-bis(diethylphosponylmethyl)benzene (8). Compounds 4 and 8 are versatile fluorinated molecules that can be used to replace their hydrogen counterparts in many molecules and materials. To illustrate this compounds 4 and 8 were oligomerised to give partially fluorinated polyphenylenevinylene (9).
