Synthesis and X-ray crystallographic analysis of chiral pyridyl substituted carbocyclic molecular clefts

Ditopic symmetrical bis(pyridyl) ligands incorporating the chiral dibenzobicyclo[b,f][3.3.1]nona-5a,6a-diene-6,12-dione cleft have been synthesised and characterised by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. The ligands, which inco

Efficient Suzuki-Miyaura mono-arylation of symmetrical diiodo(hetero)arenes

A reliable protocol for converting 1,4-diiodo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene into 1-(hetero)aryl-4-iodo-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzene derivatives has been lacking in the literature. We have identified optimal conditions to achieve this conversion in good yields and have minimized formation of the bis-coupling product. The newly identified protocol involving the use of a syringe pump has been extended to other symmetrical diiodo(hetero)arenes.

Stereoselective association of binuclear metallacycles in coordination polymers

A series of structurally related binuclear metallacycles Cd(NO3)2L]2, where L is an angular exobidentate ligand, have been synthesized. Each metallacycle contains two coordinatively unsaturated, chiral metal centers within a single molecule, and the assembly of these metallacycles into polymeric framework structures has been studied systematically for the first time. Stereoselective homochiral association of [Cd(NO3)2L]2 leads to the formation of helical coordination polymers, whereas meso type association results in nonhelical chain structures. The type of stereoselective aggregation depends on the conditions of self-assembly as well as on ligand functionality. Both helical and nonhelical polymeric complexes have been isolated for the metallacycle [Cd(NO3)2(2,4′-pyacph)]2 (2,4′-pyacph = 2,4′-(4-ethynylphenyl)bipyridyl). Homochiral association results in the formation of helical [Cd(NO3)]∞ chains which link the binuclear [Cd(NO3)2(2,4′-pyacph)]2 metallacycles into racemic two-dimensional sheets which contain both P and M [Cd(NO3)]∞ helices. In contrast, meso-association leads to the formation of nonhelical one-dimensional chains. It is shown that the product of homochiral association is predominately formed at room temperature and that of meso-association is generated at elevated temperatures. Thus, it may be concluded that the homochiral association appears to be energetically less favorable than the meso-association, a conclusion that has been confirmed by theoretical calculations of the crystal lattice energy. Several high-yield syntheses of bipyridyl-type ligands used for metallacyclic assembly are also reported.
