The Hydrolysis of the Anhydride of 2-Cyano-2-phenylpropanoic Acid Triggers the Repeated Back and Forth Motions of an Acid–Base Operated Molecular Switch

This work aimed to render phenomenologically autonomous the otherwise stepwise operation of a catenane-based molecular switch, which is chemically triggered by the decarboxylation of 2-cyano-2-phenylpropanoic acid (2). Given that any amount of 2 in stoich

Oscillating Emission of [2]Rotaxane Driven by Chemical Fuel

A molecular shuttle consisting of a dibenzo-24-crown-8 macrocycle and an axle with two degenerate peripheral triazolium stations, a central dibenzyl ammonium station, and two anthracenes stoppers was exposed to 2-cyano-2-phenylpropanoic acid as a chemical fuel. Protonation/deprotonation of the amine reversibly switches the rotaxane from a static and little emissive to a dynamic fluorescent shuttling device, the latter exhibiting rapid motion (15 kHz at 25 °C). Four fuel cycles were run.

Photoinduced Release of a Chemical Fuel for Acid–Base-Operated Molecular Machines

Back and forth motions of the acid–base-operated molecular switch 1 are photo-controlled by irradiation of a solution, which also contains the photolabile pre-fuel 4. The photo-stimulated deprotection of the pre-fuel produces controlled amounts of acid 2,

The synthesis and stereospecific solid-state photodecarbonylation of hexasubstituted meso- and d,l-ketones

Tertiary carbanions were trapped with half an equivalent of diphosgene to give meso- and d,l-hexasubstituted ketones in moderate yields and modest diastereoselectivities. The ketones were also synthesized by a step-wise synthesis in which the carbonyl group was first installed as an acid before activation and the second nucleophilic attack. This second method gave lower yields but similar diastereoselectivites. Steric limits of both methods were also determined. The photolysis of the resulting crystalline ketones gave a mixture of products in solution, but took place chemoselectively and diastereospecifically in the solid-state.

Stereospecific construction of chiral quaternary carbon compounds from chiral secondary alcohol derivatives

Chiral tertiary dichloromethylcarbinol derivatives, prepared by stereospecific α C-H insertion reaction of dichlorocarbene with protected chiral secondary alcohols, were converted into intermediary α-chloroepoxides which gave stereospecifically chiral qua
