Published: January 2004

Condensation of a porphyrin-2,3-dione with a 1,2-diaminoarenediyne affords a [small beta]-extended porphyrinic-enediyne: upon thermal Bergman cyclization the quinoxaline spacer positioned between the macrocycle and the enediyne prevents tandem radical cyclization to a picenoporphyrin.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed new cisplatin-like platinum metalloenediynes using thermally resistant phosphine enediyne ligands, demonstrating how different ligand substituents affect cyclization kinetics.
  • The first crystallographic studies of these complexes revealed they have short inter alkyne distances, indicating a potential for spontaneous cyclization at room temperature, influenced by their electronic properties.
  • Kinetic studies showed that complexes with electron-donating groups cyclized much faster than those with electron-withdrawing groups due to their unique electronic effects on bond formation and cyclization barriers.

Efficacy of radical reactions of isocyanides with heteroatom radicals in organic synthesis.

Isocyanide is a promising synthetic reagent not only as a one-carbon homologation reagent but also as a nitrogen source for nitrogen-containing molecules. Because of their isoelectronic structure with carbon monoxide, isocyanides also react with nucleophiles, electrophiles, carbon radicals, and transition metal reagents, and are widely used in organic synthesis. On the other hand, the use of isocyanides in reactions with heteroatom radicals is limited.

Multi-Level Protocol for Mechanistic Reaction Studies Using Semi-Local Fitted Potential Energy Surfaces.

Int J Mol Sci

August 2024

HQS Quantum Simulations GmbH, Rintheimer Straße 23, 76131 Karlsruhe, Germany.

In this work, we propose a multi-level protocol for routine theoretical studies of chemical reaction mechanisms. The initial reaction paths of our investigated systems are sampled using the Nudged Elastic Band (NEB) method driven by a cheap electronic structure method. Forces recalculated at the more accurate electronic structure theory for a set of points on the path are fitted with a machine learning technique (in our case symmetric gradient domain machine learning or sGDML) to produce a semi-local reactive potential energy surface (PES), embracing reactants, products and transition state (TS) regions.

Porous materials synthesized through bottom-up approaches, such as metal-organic frameworks and covalent organic frameworks, have attracted attention owing to their design flexibility for functional materials. However, achieving the chemical and thermal stability of these materials for various applications is challenging considering the reversible coordination bonds and irreversible covalent bonds in their frameworks. Thus, ordered carbonaceous frameworks (OCFs) emerge as a promising class of bottom-up materials with good periodicity, thermal and chemical stability, and electrical conductivity.

Tetraborylation of -Benzynes Generated by the Masamune-Bergman Cyclization through Reaction Design Based on the Reaction Path Network.

JACS Au

July 2024

ERATO Maeda Artificial Intelligence in Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery Project, JST, Sapporo 060-0810, Hokkaido, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored a new tetraborylation reaction involving -benzyne derived from 1,2-diethynylbenzene derivatives using bis(pinacolato)diborane(4).
  • Utilizing the artificial-force-induced reaction (AFIR) method, researchers identified both desired and undesired reaction pathways to refine the reactant's chemical structure.
  • Ultimately, the optimal reactant was found to be a 1,2-diethynylbenzene derivative with a butylene linker, leading to successful tetraborylated products with yields up to 58%.
