Novel azobenzene-based photosensitive mesogens with lactate chiral units were synthesized. In order to modify the rate of the thermal Z-E isomerization of these compounds, small lateral substituents were introduced into their core in the proximity of the azo group. The influence of lateral substitution on the kinetics of the Z-E isomerization, mesomorphic behaviour, and UV-Vis absorption spectra was studied. It was found that the position of the substituents in the azobenzene core significantly affects the rate of their thermal isomerization. The stability of Z-isomers of several studied compounds is comparable to that of compounds with complex molecular structures designed for optical data storage. Although lateral substitution influences the breadth/length ratio of the core, liquid-crystalline properties of the studied materials have been preserved.

Dimethyl carbonate (DMC), an environment-friendly compound prepared from CO2, shows diverse reactivities. In this communication, an efficient procedure using DMC as both a C1 building block and solvent in the aminocarbonylation reaction with nitro compounds has been developed. W(CO)6acts both a CO source and a reductant here.

Herein we describe the synthesis and isolation of the first low-valent NHC-phosphite nickel complexes of general formula Ni(NHC)[P(OAr)3]2. These three-coordinate Ni(0) compounds were fully characterized, including by X-ray crystallography that highlighted their trigonal planar geometry. The representative complex Ni(IMes)[P(OPh)3]2 was used to show that a phosphite ligand is readily substituted in the presence of an aldehyde or nitrile. These stoichiometric studies then led to an investigation of their catalytic properties in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions between aryl tosylates and aryl boronic acids, a first for such a NHC-Ni catalyst. Finally, mechanistic investigations led to the isolation of a well-defined oxidative addition product.

Two chromatography-free and eco-friendly protocols have been developed to synthesize aryl tosylates and mesylates by the tosylation and mesylation of the corresponding hydroxyarenes, respectively. These protocols are superior to other known ones regarding
