AI Article Synopsis

  • Air-stable and crystalline N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts were created using DBN and acyl chlorides with sodium tetraphenylborate.
  • These salts serve as efficient N-acylating agents, successfully reacting with various amines and sulfonamides to yield N-acylated products in good quantities.
  • The process allows for easy purification as the byproduct can be filtered out, and these salts offer advantages over acyl halides, including stability in air, no free acid production, and suitability for higher temperature conditions.

Article Abstract

Air-stable and crystalline N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts have been synthesized from 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and the corresponding acyl chloride in the presence of sodium tetraphenylborate. The salts have been shown to be effective N-acylating agents, reacting with primary amines, secondary amines, and sulfonamides to form the corresponding N-acylated products in good yields. The DBN hydrotetraphenylborate byproduct can be conveniently removed by filtration, providing pure N-acylated products without the need for further purification. The N-acyl DBN tetraphenylborate salts are attractive alternatives to acyl halides as they can be stored in air without decomposition, avoid the production of free acid during acylation reactions, and can be used under more forcing thermal conditions.

Wavelength-Dependent Activation of Photoacids and Bases.

Chemistry

July 2024

Centre for Materials Science, School of Chemistry and Physics, Queensland University of Technology (QUT), 2 George Street, QLD 4000, Brisbane, Australia.

Photoacids and bases allow remote control over pH in reaction solutions, which is of fundamental importance to an array of applications. Herein, we determine the wavelength-by-wavelength resolved photoreactivity of triarylsulfonium hexafluorophosphate salts as a representative photoacid generator and p-(benzoyl)benzyl triethylammonium tetraphenylborate as a photobase generator, constructing a wavelength-resolved photochemical action plot for each of the compounds. We monitor the pH change of the solution on-line within the cavity of the laser vial and demonstrate a marked mismatch between the absorption spectrum of the photoacid and base with the photochemical action plot, unveiling reactivity at very low absorptivities.

A Solid-Contact Reference Electrode Based on Silver/Silver Organic Insoluble Salt for Potentiometric Ion Sensing.

ACS Meas Sci Au

Solid-contact ion-selective electrodes are a type of ion measurement devices that have been focused in wearable biotechnology based on the features of miniaturization and integration. However, the solid-contact reference electrodes (SC-REs) remain relatively less focused compared with numerous working (or indicator) electrodes. Most SC-REs in wearable sensors rely on Ag/AgCl reference electrodes with solid electrolytes, for example, the hydrophilic electrolyte salts in polymer matrix, but face the risk of electrolyte leakage.

Determination of Single-Ion Partition Coefficients between Water and Plasticized PVC Membrane Using Equilibrium-Based Techniques.

Membranes (Basel)

October 2022

Analytical Chemistry Department, Faculty of Chemistry, Belarusian State University, Leningradskaya str., 14, 220030 Minsk, Belarus.

An experimentally simple method for the direct determination of single-ion partition coefficients between water and a PVC membrane plasticized with o-NPOE is suggested. The method uses the traditional assumption of equal single-ion partition coefficients for some reference cation and anion, in this case tetraphenylphosphonium (TPP) and tetraphenylborate (TPB). The method is based on an integrated approach, including direct study of some salts' distribution between water and membrane phases, estimation of ion association constants, and measurements of unbiased selectivity coefficients for ions of interest, including the reference ones.

The synthesis and structural characterization of a series of supramolecular complexes of bicyclic cationic pyridine-fused 1,2,4-selenodiazoles with various anions is reported. The binding of trifluoroacetate, tetrachloroaurate, tetraphenylborate, perrhenate, and pertechnetate anions in the solid state is regarded. All the anions interact with selenodiazolium cations exclusively via a pair of "chelating" Se⋯O and H⋯O non-covalent interactions, which make them an attractive, novel, non-classical supramolecular recognition unit or a synthon.

Ion-Transfer Voltammetry at Fluorous Ether | Water Interfaces.

Anal Sci

October 2021

Department of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Fukui Prefectural University, Eiheiji, Fukui, 910-1195, Japan.

This paper describes that fluorous ethers, 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl ether and 1H,1H,5H-octafluoropentyl-1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl ether, can be used for a non-aqueous medium in electrochemistry at a liquid | liquid interface. These solvents dissolved a high concentration of tetraalkylammonium salts with highly-fluorinated anions, such as bis(nonafluorobutanesulfonyl)imide and tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate ions, and the solution had a high conductivity. The fluorous ether | water interfaces exhibited a substantial polarizable potential window, and various ions, including tetraphenylarsonium and tetraphenylborate ions, gave a reversible voltammetric wave due to their ion transfer across the interfaces.
