Highly selective sp3 C-N bond activation of tertiary anilines modulated by steric and thermodynamic factors

A highly selective sp3 C-N cleavage of tertiary anilines was achieved using the TBN/TEMPO catalyst system. When N,N-diaklylanilines (alkyl, benzyl) were employed, the N-CH3 bond was selectively cleaved via radical C-H activation. Moreover, when the allyl group was installed, totally reverse selectivity was observed. It is worth noting that the solvent effect is also crucial to obtain high reaction efficiency and selectivity.

Synthetic derivatives of mauveine

Oxidation of phenosafranin and an excess of aniline gave a novel hydroxylated derivative of pseudo-mauveine. N-Methyl-p-toluidine and bis(4-methylphenyl)amine are efficient building blocks for making mauveine-related chromophores. Their oxidation with Ks

Groups 5 and 6 terminal hydrazido(2-) complexes: Nβ substituent effects on ligand-to-metal charge-transfer energies and oxidation states

Brightly colored terminal hydrazido(2-) (dme)MCl3(NNR 2) (dme = 1,2-dimethoxyethane; M = Nb, Ta; R = alkyl, aryl) or (MeCN)WCl4(NNR2) complexes have been synthesized and characterized. Perturbing the electronic environment of the β (NR 2) nitrogen affects the energy of the lowest-energy charge-transfer (CT) transition in these complexes. For group 5 complexes, increasing the energy of the Nβ lone pair decreases the ligand-to-metal CT (LMCT) energy, except for electron-rich niobium dialkylhydrazides, which pyramidalize Nβ in order to reduce the overlap between the Nb=N α π bond and the Nβ lone pair. For W complexes, increasing the energy of Nβ eventually leads to reduction from formally [WVI≡N-NR2] with a hydrazido(2-) ligand to [WIV=N=NR2] with a neutral 1,1-diazene ligand. The photophysical properties of these complexes highlight the potential redox noninnocence of hydrazido ligands, which could lead to ligand- and/or metal-based redox chemistry in early transition metal derivatives.
