Structural analysis of mono-substituted N-butyl-pyridinium salts: in search of ionic liquids

Four mono-substituted N-butylpyridinium salts, 1-butyl-4-dimethylaminopyridinium chloride [b4dmapy]Cl, 1-butyl-4-methylpyridinium bromide [b4mpy]Br, 1-butyl-4-methylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate [b4mpy][PF6], and 1-butyl-3-methylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate [b3mpy][PF6] were synthesized and characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structures were examined with the intent of identifying ion interactions leading to higher melting points of the halide salts with respect to the [PF6]– salts. The changes in hydrogen bonding, C–H???π, and van der Waals interactions have been analyzed with respect to anion, functional groups, and the symmetry of the cation to establish interdependence with the compound’s physicochemical properties. It has been observed that the cation–anion interactions are represented by highly directional hydrogen bonds and show strong preference to positions of interaction depending on the anion. The cations of the halide salts show strong tendency towards higher dimensional formations, while those of the [PF6]– salts prefer low dimensional assemblies both being based mainly on the weaker van der Waals interactions. These interactions depend on the shape of the cation but may offer certain structure-ordering rigidity accommodating variable anions.

Expansion of Azulenes as Nonbenzenoid Aromatic Compounds for C-H Activation: Rhodium- And Iridium-Catalyzed Oxidative Cyclization of Azulene Carboxylic Acids with Alkynes for the Synthesis of Azulenolactones and Benzoazulenes

Rhodium-catalyzed oxidative [4 + 2] cyclization reactions through the C-H activation of azulene carboxylic acids as nonbenzenoid aromatic compounds with symmetrical and unsymmetrical alkynes were developed under aerobic conditions, which produced azulenolactone derivatives with a wide substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance. Interestingly, azulenic acids in reaction with alkynes underwent iridium-catalyzed [2 + 2 + 2] cyclization accompanied by decarboxylation to afford tetra(aryl)-substituted benzoazulene derivatives. The reactivity order for C-H activation reaction is greater toward azulene-6-carboxylic acid, azulene-1-carboxylic acid, and azulene-2-carboxylic acid. For the first time, the expansion of azulenes having directing group as nonbenzenoid aromatic compounds for C-H activation was successful, indicating that nonbenzenoid aromatic compounds can be used as good substrates for the C-H activation reaction. Therefore, the research area of C-H activation will certainly expand to nonbenzenoid aromatic compounds in future.

Correlation between lipophilicity of newly synthesized ionic liquids and selected: Fusarium genus growth rate

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effectiveness of 23 different synthesized ionic liquids (ILs) on Fusarium culmorum and Fusarium oxysporum growth rate. The strategy of IL synthesis was a structural modification of ionic liquids through changing the polarity of imidazolium and pycolinium cations and replacing halide anions with well known antifungal anions (cinnamate, caffeate and mandelate). The findings clearly suggest that the type of alkyl chain on the cation is the most determining factor for IL toxicity. In order to examine how IL structure affects their toxicity towards Fusarium genus, lipophilic descriptor AlogP is calculated from density functional theory and correlated with Fusarium growth rate. All these results demonstrate the high level of the interdependency of lipophilicity and toxicity for investigated ILs towards the Fusarium genus. The data collected in this research suggest that the inhibitory influence of ILs is more pronounced in the case of F. oxysporum.
