Chemistry of 4-[(4-bromophenyl)ethynyl]pyridine at metal surfaces studied by STM

Molecular architectures (Kagome networks, coordinated/covalent dimers and branched coordination chains) via self-assembly, Ullmann reaction and pyridine coordination of 4-[(4-bromophenyl)ethynyl]pyridine are found to be sensitive to the underlying metallic surfaces. The molecular species were characterised on the surface by low-temperature scanning tunnelling microscopy (LT-STM) at sub-molecular level.

Synthesis of dihydroindolizines for potential photoinduced work function alteration

Seeking to immobilize photochromophores on metallic surfaces, we have synthesized four molecules which contain both a photoresponsive dihydroindolizine (DHI) core and a sulfur containing moiety, which allow for their assembly onto gold substrates. Sonogashira, Suzuki, or Ullmann couplings are employed to generate pyridines with pendant thioacetates (or disulfides). The pyridines are condensed with spiro[2-cyclopropene-1, 9′-[9H]fluorene]- 2, 3-dimethyl ester affording the targeted DHIs.

Stereoselective association of binuclear metallacycles in coordination polymers

A series of structurally related binuclear metallacycles Cd(NO3)2L]2, where L is an angular exobidentate ligand, have been synthesized. Each metallacycle contains two coordinatively unsaturated, chiral metal centers within a single molecule, and the assembly of these metallacycles into polymeric framework structures has been studied systematically for the first time. Stereoselective homochiral association of [Cd(NO3)2L]2 leads to the formation of helical coordination polymers, whereas meso type association results in nonhelical chain structures. The type of stereoselective aggregation depends on the conditions of self-assembly as well as on ligand functionality. Both helical and nonhelical polymeric complexes have been isolated for the metallacycle [Cd(NO3)2(2,4′-pyacph)]2 (2,4′-pyacph = 2,4′-(4-ethynylphenyl)bipyridyl). Homochiral association results in the formation of helical [Cd(NO3)]∞ chains which link the binuclear [Cd(NO3)2(2,4′-pyacph)]2 metallacycles into racemic two-dimensional sheets which contain both P and M [Cd(NO3)]∞ helices. In contrast, meso-association leads to the formation of nonhelical one-dimensional chains. It is shown that the product of homochiral association is predominately formed at room temperature and that of meso-association is generated at elevated temperatures. Thus, it may be concluded that the homochiral association appears to be energetically less favorable than the meso-association, a conclusion that has been confirmed by theoretical calculations of the crystal lattice energy. Several high-yield syntheses of bipyridyl-type ligands used for metallacyclic assembly are also reported.
