Treatment of the tris(phosphinoamide) titanium precursor ClTi(XylNP(i)Pr2)3 (1) with CoI2 leads to the heterobimetallic complex (η(2)-(i)Pr2PNXyl)Ti(XylNP(i)Pr2)2(μ-Cl)CoI (2). One-electron reduction of 2 affords (η(2)-(i)Pr2PNXyl)Ti(XylNP(i)Pr2)2CoI (3), which can be reduced by another electron under dinitrogen to generate the reduced diamagnetic complex (THF)Ti(XylNP(i)Pr2)3CoN2 (4). The removal of the dinitrogen ligand from 4 under vacuum affords (THF)Ti(XylNP(i)Pr2)3Co (5), which features a Ti-Co triple bond. Treatment of 4 with hydrazine or methyl hydrazine results in N-N bond cleavage and affords the new diamagnetic complexes (L)Ti(XylNP(i)Pr2)3CoN2 (L = NH3 (6), MeNH2 (7)). Complexes 4, 5, and 6 have been shown to catalyze the disproportionation of hydrazine into ammonia and dinitrogen gas through a mechanism involving a diazene intermediate.

Photolytic and Thermal Reactions of [CH(PPh)(μ-N)] and Its Lewis Acid Adducts: N-N Bond Cleavage and Liberation of N.

The known species (PhP)N was previously described as two phosphine donors associated with a doubly Lewis acidic N-unit based on its thermal liberation of N. Herein, we prepare the related species [CH(PPh)(μ-N)] , where the chelation of the N fragment facilitates both N liberation and N-N bond cleavage reactions. In addition, these reactions can be achieved selectively via thermolysis of a Lewis acid adduct of or by direct photolysis, respectively.

The rhodium and iridium complexes [Cp*M(κ,,-)][SbF] (Cp* = η-CMe; M = Rh, ; Ir, ; = pyridinyl-amidine ligand) exhibit three different cooperative metal-ligand reactivity modes when interacting with nonfunctionalized ketones. With the methyl ketones CHCOR (R = CH, Ph, CF), activation of the ketone methyl C(sp)-H bond yields ketonyl compounds of formula [Cp*M(CHCOR)(κ,-)][SbF]. With the ketones (CF)CO and CFCOPh, the complexes add to the C═O double bond of the ketone.

Intermolecular oxidative N-N bond formation reactions are quite challenging and are largely uncharted. N-N linked dimeric indolosesquiterpene alkaloids represent an underexplored class of natural products, and strategies for direct dehydrogenative N-N bond formation are limited. Here, we have reported that a late-stage visible-light photoredox catalysis facilitates N-N bond formation, leading to the total syntheses of atropo-diastereomers dixiamycins A () and B ().

Supramolecular oleogels, in which low-molecular weight oleogelators self-assemble into various nanostructures through non-covalent interactions, have witnessed increasing research activity in various fields of science, including food, cosmetics or remediation of marine oil spills. Herein, we report a simple scalable and environmentally friendly carbohydrate-based oleogelator, namely, the sodium salt of ,'-dimethyl β- glucosyl barbiturate (GlcBMe) that self-assembles through sonication to induce the gelation of polar organic solvent and later of non-polar vegetable oils by cationic exchange with quaternary ammonium surfactants. Water-soluble GlcBMe was capable of forming self-assembled fibrillar network bridging insoluble particles in the oil by sonication in the presence of a small amount of water.

Gas phase bond dissociation energies (BDE) O-H/N-H in hydroquinone (HQ), 4-aminophenol (AP), 1,4-phenylenediamine (PDA), 4-hydroxydiphenylamine (HDPA), N,N'-diphenyl-1,4-phenylenediamine (DPPDA) as well as in their phenoxyl/aminyl radicals have been determined using a combined technique of quantum chemical calculation. The technique included a series of DFT (PBE1PBE, TPSSTPSS, M06-2X), ab initio (DLPNO-CCSD(T)) methods with valence 3ξ-basis sets, composite methods of Gaussian family (G4) and Weizmann theory with ab initio Brueckner Doubles (W1BD), as well as reference reactions of different levels of structural similarity. W1BD method was used in combination with isodesmic reactions for BDE estimation (kJ∙mol) of compounds with the only aromatic fragment: BDE = 352.
