We report the synthesis of new protic ionic liquids (PILs) based on aniline derivatives and the use of high-throughput (HT) techniques to screen possible candidates. In this work, a simple HT method was applied to rapidly screen different aniline derivatives against different acids in order to identify possible combinations that produce PILs. This was followed by repeating the HT process with a Chemspeed robotic synthesis platform for more accurate results. One of the successful combinations were then chosen to be synthesised on a larger scale for further analysis. The new PILs are of interest to the fields of ionic liquids, energy storage and especially, conducting polymers as they serve as solvents, electrolytes and monomers at the same time for possible electropolymerisation (i.e. a self-contained polymer precursor).

The kinetics of formanilides hydrolysis were determined under first-order conditions in hydrochloric acid (0.01-8 M, 20-60°C) and in hydroxide solutions (0.01-3 M, 25 and 40°C). Under acidic conditions, second-order specific acid catalytic constants were used to construct Hammett plots. The ortho effect was analyzed using the Fujita-Nishioka method. In alkaline solutions, hydrolysis displayed both first- and second-order dependence in the hydroxide concentration. The specific base catalytic constants were used to construct Hammett plots. Ortho effects were evaluated for the first-order dependence on the hydroxide concentration. Formanilide hydrolyzes in acidic solutions by specific acid catalysis, and the kinetic study results were consistent with the AAC2 mechanism. Ortho substitution led to a decrease in the rates of reaction due to steric inhibition of resonance, retardation due to steric bulk, and through space interactions. The primary hydrolytic pathway in alkaline solutions was consistent with a modified BAC2 mechanism. The Hammett plots for hydrolysis of meta- and para-substituted formanilides in 0.10 M sodium hydroxide solutions did not show substituent effects; however, ortho substitution led to a decrease in rate constants proportional to the steric bulk of the substituent.

(Chemical Equation Presented) The reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding amines with silanes catalyzed by high valent oxo-rhenium complexes is reported. The catalytic systems PhMe2SiH/ReIO 2(PPh3)2 (5 mol %) and PhMe2SiH/ ReOCl3(PPh3)2 (5 mol %) reduced efficiently a series of aromatic nitro compounds in the presence of a wide range of functional groups such as ester, halo, amide, sulfone, lactone, and benzyl. This methodology also allowed the regioselective reduction of dinitrobenzenes to the corresponding nitroanilines and the reduction of an aromatic nitro group in presence of an aliphatic nitro group. 2009 American Chemical Society.
