“…Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectra ( 1 H: 400 MHz; 13 C{ 1 H}: 101 MHz; 19 F{ 1 H}: 376 MHz) were obtained from CDCl3 solutions on Bruker Avance II AC-400 spectrometer operating at 300K. Signals were calibrated based on solvent residual for 1 H (δH = 7.26 ppm: CHCl3) and central 13 C resonance (δC = 77.17 ppm: CDCl3).

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6] In this regard, our research interests are primarily focused on the use of azole heterocycles for a variety of topics within coordination chemistry. These areas include fundamental structural studies, [7][8][9][10] metal-mediated polymerization, [11] catalysts for selective C-C bond formation (e.g., Suzuki-Miyaura coupling), [12,13] and medicinal chemistry. [17] Recently, we have turned our attention to a class of azole metalbinding agents that we call Tohda's Ligands (Figure 1).…”
The synthesis and characterisation of a small library of Co and Cu derivatives (29 examples) incorporating the (Z)-1-R 1 -2-(4',4'-R 2 -2'-oxazolin-2'-yl)-eth-1-en-1-ate (L: R 1 = alkyl or aryl; R 2 = H or Me) skeleton is described. This work includes six new derivatives of "Tohda's Ligands". In the case where R 2 = H, solid-state stable Co(II) materials of formula Co(κ 2 -N,O-L)2 could, in some cases, be obtained following base-induced deprotonation of L+H and treatment with hydrated CoX2 salts. These complexes display redox induced solution decomposition behaviour giving Co(κ 2 -N,O-L)3 as one isolable product. Stable Cu(II) complexes could only be obtained in the case of for R 1 = Ph and R 2 = H. In the case of R 2 = Me, distorted tetrahedral Co(II) compounds (also Co(κ 2 -N,O-L)2) are obtained as above (twelve examples). Square planar derivatives of Cu(II), of similar stoichiometry, are likewise isolated (eleven new examples). In contrast to the R 2 = H reactions, all of these latter materials were found to be air-stable in solution or the solid phase. In total, 18 complexes have been characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Molecular modelling (PM6(tm) and DFT) are also used to elucidate the molecular properties of selected complexes. Only a single Co complex (R 1 = t-butyl and R 2 = Me) of the library displays reversible one-electron redox properties.

The copper-catalyzed enantioselective radical difunctionalization of alkenes from readily available alkyl halides and organophosphorus reagents possessing a PÀ H bond provides an appealing approach for the synthesis of α-chiral alkyl phosphorus compounds. The major challenge arises from the easy generation of a Pcentered radical from the PÀ H-type reagent and its facile addition to the terminal side of alkenes, leading to reverse chemoselectivity. We herein disclose a radical 1,2-carbophosphonylation of styrenes in a highly chemoand enantioselective manner. The key to the success lies in not only the implementation of dialkyl phosphites with a strong bond dissociation energy to promote the desired chemoselectivity but also the utilization of an anionic chiral N,N,N-ligand to forge the chiral C(sp 3 )À P bond. The developed Cu/N,N,N-ligand catalyst has enriched our library of single-electron transfer catalysts in the enantioselective radical transformations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
