Isomeric phosphinoferrocene ligands, viz. 1'-(diphenylphosphino)-1-cyanoferrocene (1) and 1'-(diphenylphosphino)-1-isocyanoferrocene (2), show markedly different coordination behaviours. For instance, the reactions of 1 with [PdCl2(MeCN)2] and [(LNC)Pd(μ-Cl)]2 (LNC = [2-(dimethylamino-κN)methyl]phenyl-κC1) produced the "phosphine" complexes [PdCl2(1-κP)2] (7) and [(LNC)PdCl(1-κP)] (8), and the latter was converted into the coordination polymer [(LNC)Pd(μ(P,N)-1)][SbF6] (9). Conversely, the reaction of 2 with [(LNC)Pd(μ-Cl)]2 involved coordination of the phosphine moiety and simultaneous insertion of the isocyanide group into the Pd-C bond, giving rise to the P,η1-imidoyl complex [PdCl(Ph2PfcN[double bond, length as m-dash]CC6H4CH2NMe2-κ3C,N,P)] (10; fc = ferrocene-1,1'-diyl). Compound 10 was further transformed into the Fischer carbene [PdCl(Ph2PfcN(Me)CC6H4CH2NMe2-κ3P,C,N)][BF4] (11) by methylation with [Me3O][BF4]. The reactions of 2 with Pd-Me and Pd(η3-allyl) precursors also led to imidoyl complexes [Pd(μ-Cl)(Ph2PfcN[double bond, length as m-dash]CR-κ2C,P)]2 (R = Me: 12, R = allyl: 15), which were cleaved with PPh3 into the corresponding monopalladium complexes [PdCl(PPh3)(Ph2PfcN[double bond, length as m-dash]CR-κ2C,P)] (R = Me: 13, R = allyl: 16). The treatment of 12 and 15 with thallium(i) acetylacetonate (acac) produced [Pd(acac-O,O')(Ph2PfcN[double bond, length as m-dash]CR-κ2C,P)] (R = Me: 17, R = allyl: 18). Through proton transfer, these complexes reacted with Ph2PCH2CO2H, ultimately producing bis-chelate complexes [Pd(Ph2PCH2CO2-κ2O,P)(Ph2PfcN[double bond, length as m-dash]CR)] (R = Me: 19, R = prop-1-enyl (sic!): 20). In addition, compound 13 was converted into the P-chelated carbene [PdCl(PPh3)(Ph2PfcN(Me)CMe-κ2C,P)][BF4] (14). Compounds 10, 11, 13 and 14 were studied by cyclic voltammetry and by DFT computations.

Organic compounds present promising options for sustainable zinc battery electrodes. Nevertheless, the electrochemical properties of current organic electrodes still lag behind those of their inorganic counterparts. In this study, nitro groups were incorporated into pyrene-4, 5, 9, 10-tetraone (PTO), resulting in an elevated discharge voltage due to their strong electron-withdrawing capabilities.

In this paper, a series of novel quinazoline-4(3)-one-2-carbothioamide derivatives (8a-p) were designed and synthesized the Wilgerodt-Kindler reaction between 2-methylquinazoline-4-one 10 and amines using S/DMSO as the oxidizing system. Their characteristics were confirmed by IR, NMR, HRMS spectra, and their melting point. These novel derivatives (8a-p) were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting NO production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated RAW 264.

DFT calculations were performed to investigate the possible reaction mechanisms underlying catalyst-free chloroboration reactions of carbonyl compounds with BCl. The interaction between BCl and the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O moiety of carbonyl compounds is a two-step reaction. In the first step, B of BCl forms a bond with the O of the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O moiety, followed by the 1,3-Cl migration process from BCl to the C of the carbonyl group.
