Several biscarborane-type derivatives of 8-iodo-1,2-dicarba-closo- dodecaborane (1), suitable as the precursors of linear metallacarborane-based molecular rods, were prepared. The synthesized closo-compounds contained two carborane moieties connected through a rigid linear unsaturated linker. The linkers were based on ethynylene and para-phenylene fragments and their combinations. The deboronation of all reported closo-compounds was selective and afforded nido-products with open pentagonal faces on opposite sides of the molecule, parallel to each other and perpendicular to the main molecular axis. All of the closo and nido products were characterized by a variety of physical methods (NMR, HRMS, IR). The structures of closo-carboranes 3, 6, 9, and 14 and nido-carboranes 15 and 17 were established by X-ray diffraction.

In this study, a facile CuI catalyzed synthesis of sulfones involving a nucleophilic addition of functionalized organozinc reagents to organic sulfonyl chlorides is realized. This reaction proceeds efficiently at room temperature, giving rise to various functional group substituted sulfones, generally in moderate to high yields. The method provides a novel, simple, and promising strategy for functionalized sulfone synthesis in the research field of sulfur chemistry. the Partner Organisations 2014.
New chemical synthesis of functionalized arylzinc compounds from aromatic or thienyl bromides under mild conditions using a simple cobalt catalyst and zinc dust

A new chemical method for the preparation of arylzinc intermediates is described in acetonitrile, on the basis of the activation of aryl bromides by low-valent cobalt species arising from the reduction of cobalt halide by zinc dust. This procedure allows for the synthesis of a variety of functionalized aryl- and thienylzinc species in good to excellent yields. The versatility and the simplicity of that original method represent an alternative to most known procedures.
