Usage

General Description

(p-Methoxyphenyl)triphenylmethane is a chemical compound consisting of a triphenylmethane molecule with a methoxy group attached to one of the phenyl rings. It is a white to light yellow crystalline solid that is sparingly soluble in water and soluble in most organic solvents. (p-Methoxyphenyl)triphenylmethane is primarily used as a dye intermediate for the production of colorants and pigments in the textile and paper industries. It is also used as a research chemical in organic synthesis and as a component in the formulation of functional materials such as liquid crystals and light-emitting diodes. Additionally, it has been investigated for its potential photophysical properties and as a fluorescence probe in biological imaging applications.

Temperature Controls Guest Uptake and Release from Zn4L4 Tetrahedra

We report the preparation of triazatruxene-faced tetrahedral cage 1, which exhibits two diastereomeric configurations (T1 and T2) that differ in the handedness of the ligand faces relative to that of the octahedrally coordinated metal centers. At lower temperatures, T1 is favored, whereas T2 predominates at higher temperatures. Host-guest studies show that T1 binds small aliphatic guests, whereas T2 binds larger aromatic molecules, with these changes in binding preference resulting from differences in cavity size and degree of enclosure. Thus, by a change in temperature the cage system can be triggered to eject one bound guest and take up another.

Synthesis of Tetraarylmethanes by the Triflic Acid-Promoted Formal Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of Triarylmethanes with Arenes

The formal cross-dehydrogenative coupling of triarylmethanes with arenes promoted by triflic acid and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone is described. This method provides a variety of tetraarylmethane derivatives in good to excellent yields from triarylmethanes that can be readily prepared by our previous methods. Control experiments suggest a possible catalytic cycle involving the generation of a trityl cation intermediate followed by nucleophilic addition of the arene.

Cooperative Friedel-Crafts catalysis in heterobimetallic regime: Alkylation of aromatics by π-activated alcohols

The highly active Friedel-Crafts alkylation (FCA) catalyst, [Ir(COD)Cl(SnCl3)(SnCl4)(arene)]+Cl- (1-SnCl4), is easily generated in one-pot from [Ir(COD)Cl]2 or [Ir(COD)(μ-Cl)Cl(SnCl3)]2 (1) and SnCl4. The reaction of arenes, heteroarenes with benzyl, and allyl alcohols is promoted by 1-SnCl4 (1 mol %) with high turnover frequency. Kinetic evidence is presented to establish FCA pattern. From dual-catalyst combination studies varying the transition metal and main group metal partner, the efficiency of the present catalysts is attributed to the electrophilic "IrIII-SnIV" core.
