The orbital degeneracy of benzene rings is resolved by an asymmetric push-pull system in 2,6-bis(methylsulfonyl)aniline (BMeSA), in which the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is located at the 4-position, while the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) is located at a different position and has a nodal plane through the carbon atoms at the 1- and 4-positions. Therefore, the π-extension of BMeSA at the 4-position reveals a strong overlap in the HOMO and a minimal overlap in the LUMO. Consequently, π-extended BMeSA derivatives exhibit longer absorbance and emission wavelengths in the order of the electron-donating abilities of their substituents at the 4-position, which is based on a decrease in an absolute HOMO-level-dependent HOMO-LUMO gap in accordance with the nodal arrangement. Positive fluorescent solvatochromism with polarity-dependent decrease in fluorescent intensity was also observed. The biaryls exhibited more planar geometries in the excited state than in the ground state. The charge transfer mechanism, which can be described as node-induced intramolecular charge transfer (NICT), differs from the planar intramolecular charge transfer (PICT) and twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT).
Antioxidant activity of two edible isothiocyanates: Sulforaphane and erucin is due to their thermal decomposition to sulfenic acids and methylsulfinyl radicals

Sulforaphane (SFN) and erucin (ERN) are isothiocyanates (ITCs) bearing, respectively, methylsulfinyl and methylsulfanyl groups. Their chemopreventive and anticancer activity is attributed to ability to modulate cellular redox status due to induction of Phase 2 cytoprotective enzymes (indirect antioxidant action) but many attempts to connect the bioactivity of ITCs with their radical trapping activity failed. Both ITCs are evolved from their glucosinolates during food processing of Cruciferous vegetables, therefore, we studied antioxidant behaviour of SFN/ERN at elevated temperature in two lipid systems. Neither ERN nor SFN inhibit the oxidation of bulk linolenic acid (below 100 °C) but both ITCs increase oxidative stability of soy lecithin (above 150 °C). On the basis of GC-MS analysis we verified our preliminary hypothesis (Antioxidants 2020, 9, 1090) about participation of sulfenic acids and methylsulfinyl radicals as radical trapping agents responsible for the antioxidant effect of edible ITCs during thermal oxidation of lipids at elevated temperatures (above 140 °C).

The combined utilization of Me2-cAAC (Me2-cAAC =:C(CH2)(CMe2)2N-2,6-iPr2C6H3) and thiolates as supporting ligands enables the access of unprecedented carbene coordinated thiolate-bridged diiron(ii) complexes [(Me2-cAAC)Fe(μ-SR)(Br)]2 (R = Me, 3; R = Et, 4). The coordination environment of each tetrahedral iron(ii) center in complexes 3 and 4 is composed of one terminal bromide atom, one carbene carbon atom and two thiolate sulfur atoms, which is similar to the carbide-containing sulfur-rich environment of iron centers in the belt region of the FeMo-cofactor. Interestingly, when NaSCPh3 was chosen as the thiolate ligand, C-S bond homolysis occurred to form a rare [3:1] site-differentiated cubane-type cluster [(Me2-cAAC)Fe4S4(Br)3][Me2-cAACH] (5). Furthermore, complexes 3 and 4 exhibit good exchange reactivity toward the azide anion to give novel thiolate-bridged diiron complexes with two azido ligands in a trans arrangement.

Paragraph 0068; 0069; 0070, (2014/02/15)
The present invention provides a method for producing a 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one compound by reacting a 2-(alkylthio)benzonitrile compound with a halogenating agent in the presence of water, wherein an alkyl halide that is generated as by-product is reacted with a sulfide to form an alkylthiol, which is converted into an alkali metal salt, and then the resulting alkali metal salt is reacted with a 2-halobenzonitrile compound to be converted into a 2-(alkylthio)benzonitrile compound and reused as a starting material for the production of a 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one compound. By means of the present invention, it is possible to efficiently use the by-product that is generated during the production of a 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one compound and economically produce a 1,2-benzisothiazol-3-one compound without placing a burden on the environment.

We report the syntheses of 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-disulphonic acid (H2bp-4,4'-ds) and 2,2'-bipyridine-5-sulphonic acid (Hbp-5-s), and several ruthenium(II) complexes derived therefrom, including 4-, 2- (bipy=2,2'-bipyridine), , and - and their 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (H2bpdc) analogues, viz. 4-, 2-, and .Some novel thioalkyl derivatives of 2,2'-bipyridine, including 4,4'-di(methylthio)-2,2'-bipyridine, 4,4'-di(ethylthio)-2,2'-bipyridine, and 4,4',6,6'-tetra(methylthio)-2,2'-bipyridine, were also prepared and characterised during the course of this investigation.The luminescent states of the complexes 4-, 2-, 4-, 2-, and were studied using variable-temperature lifetime measurements.Studies of the quenching of 2+>*, >*, 2->*, and 4->* by 1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium bromide (methyl viologen) in aqueous solution as a function of ionic strength have demonstrated that the effects of charge in these electron-transfer reactions can be understood in terms of conventional theories of ionic reactions whilst, at the same time, confirming the effective charges of the ruthenium(II) complex ions.The rate constants for the quenching of 4->* and 2->* by copper(II) ions in neutral aqueous solution show unusual (non-Arrhenius) temperature dependences.A novel kinetic scheme involving parallel inner- and outer-sphere quenching mechanisms has been proposed to account for the observed behaviour.The luminescence decay of >* in the presence of aqueous copper(II) ions at pH 3.5 is non-exponential.This is interpreted in terms of a combination of static and dynamic quenching effects.
