Abstract:2,4,6-Trimethoxyphenyllithium, Φ′Li[Φ′ = 2,4,6-(MeO)3C6H2], reacted with diphenyl carbonate and with ethyl formate to give tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)methanol, Φ′3COH (1), and bis(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)methanol, Φ′2CHOH (2), respectively. Compound 1 reacted with a slight excess of perchloric acid in 2-propanol to give very dark-purple crystals of the triarylcarbenium salt, [Φ′3C]X (3, X = ClO4), which were inert even in hot ethanol. However, a treatment of 3 (X = Cl), prepared in situ in 1 M (1 M = 1 mol dm−… Show more
“…Recently, it has been shown that readily prepared tris(2,4,6‐trimethoxyphenyl) methyl ( 1 ) and tris(2,6‐dimethoxy‐ phenyl)methyl ( 2 ) carbenium ions18–22 react with alkyl amines to generate very stable, permanently charged, nitrogen‐containing carbocations. The products, that result from sequential S N Ar reactions of methoxy substituents by the nucleophilic amines, can be studied—along with their derivatives—for photochemical, photophysical, electrochemical, stereochemical, topological and synthetic applications 18–33 …”

“…In the particular case of air‐ and moisture‐stable [ 1 ][BF 4 ], primary and secondary alkyl amines substitute effectively one, two or even three para ‐methoxy substituents of the carbenium ion in a polar solvent (DMF, acetonitrile) at room temperature 18–22. However, as a significant decrease in reactivity follows each consecutive substitution, it is generally facile to substitute a single p ‐MeO group of 1 by using a lone equivalent of amine and a short reaction time (shown in Scheme ).…”

“…Derivatization reagent [ 1 ][BF 4 ] was synthesized following the procedure reported by Wada and collaborators 18–22. The preparative protocol was only slightly modified; the tris(2,4,6‐trimethoxyphenyl)carbinol precursor to carbocation 1 being obtained in analytically pure form by a solubilization of the crude mixture obtained at the end of the synthesis in a minimum of CH 2 Cl 2 and a subsequent precipitation by addition of n ‐hexane rather than by recrystallization as previously described.…”

Three different formulas with low-cost resins, made up of N,NЈ-bismaleimidephenylmethane (BMI), O,OЈ-diallybisphenol A(BA), and N-phenylmaleimide (NPMI) were developed. The properties of prepolymers, such as activation energies, enthalpy, and constants of reaction rate, were obtained by a kinetic programmer on DSC. Thermal and mechanical properties of neat resins were also studied. The results showed that the systems had low melting point and low viscosity. All cured resins presented excellent thermal and good mechanical properties. The mechanical properties could be affected by the quantity of NPMI and postcuring process. The water absorption is Յ1.98%; heat deflection temperature (HDT) is Ն250°C after aging for 100 h in distilled water of 90°C. The data indicate that the BMI can be effectively improved by adding BA and NPMI, while its heat resistance and hot/wet mechanical properties can be fairly retained.

“…2) [17]. Starting from the readily available tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)methylium salt (TMP) 3 C + [18,29], stepwise replacement of the para- methoxy groups by dialkylamines provides access to a wide variety of symmetric and asymmetric triarylmethylium dyes [18,30–31]. Replacement of two o- methoxy groups by one primary amine gives acridinium-type ring systems (Fig.…”
Triangulenium dyes functionalized with one, two or three ethylthiol functionalities were synthesized and their optical properties were studied. The sulfur functionalities were introduced by aromatic nucleophilic substitution of methoxy groups in triarylmethylium cations with ethanethiol followed by partial or full ring closure of the ortho positions with nitrogen or oxygen bridges leading to sulfur-functionalized acridinium, xanthenium or triangulenium dyes. For all the dye classes the sulfur functionalities are found to lead to intensely absorbing dyes in the visible range (470 to 515 nm), quite similar to known analogous dye systems with dialkylamino donor groups in place of the ethylthiol substituents. For the triangulenium derivatives significant fluorescence was observed (Φf = 0.1 to Φf = 0.3).
