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.

Tetraarylmethanes are an important class of molecules that contain four aryl groups bonded to a central carbon atom. The shape/three-dimensionality of these molecules makes them suitable for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic solar cells, hydrogen storage, and even drug-delivery. Despite their importance, there are only a few methods available for their preparation. Herein, we report a simple procedure for the preparation of tetraarylmethanes that involves a bismuth-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts cyclization followed by a desulfurization reaction mediated by Raney nickel.

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.
Direct alkylation of aromatics using alcohols in the presence of NaHSO 4/SiO2

Simple and efficient procedure for alkylation of aromatics from alcohols in the presence of NaHSO4/SiO2 was developed. Various triaryl methanes were obtained in good yields in short reaction time. For instance the reaction of mesitylene with benzhydrol in the presence of NaHSO4/SiO2 gave the corresponding triaryl methane in a quantitative yield. NaHSO4/SiO2 was regenerated by simple treatment and could be recycled eight times without activity loss.
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.
