Synthesis of new malonaldehyde derivatives using 2-heteroaryl-substituted trimethinium salts

An efficient route to the synthesis of novel zwitterionic pyridinium-cyanopropenides with 3-heteroaryl-substituted trimethinium salts

In this study, eight new zwitterionic derivatives were synthesized using a simple design method from the reaction of various 2-substituted 1,3-bis(dimethylamino)-trimethinium salts with malononitrile or ethyl 2-cyanoacetate in excellent yields in the presence of triethylamine in ethanol at reflux. The molecular structures of the new compounds were confirmed by IR, UV/vis, mass, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectra as well as by elemental analyses.

Synthesis of new allylidene amino phenol-containing Schiff bases and metal complex formation using trimethinium salts

An efficient route for the synthesis of novel Schiff bases from the condensation reaction of 2-substituted 1,3-bis(dimethylamino)-trimethinium salts with diverse aminophenols in the presence of triethylamine in EtOH at reflux is described. Complexes of transition metals with Schiff base ligand (L) 3c, having the donor atom set N₂O₂, were studied. The ultraviolet spectral behavior of the complexes in DMSO was investigated and the λ_max of these compounds was examined. The structure of the new compounds was confirmed based on their spectral data from IR, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR, mass spectra, and elemental analysis.

A facile and efficient route to one-pot synthesis of new cyclophanes using vinamidinium salts

In this study, an efficient method for the synthesis of new cyclophanes (5a–f, 6a–g) through the condensation of 1,4-phenylenedimethanamine (3) or 2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzene-1,4-diamine (4) with 2-substituted vinamidiniums (2a–g) is described. The cyclophane derivatives are obtained in good to excellent yields in the presence of acetic acid in refluxing acetonitrile after 15 h. The structure of new compounds was validated based on their spectral data (¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, IR) and elemental analysis.

Room Temperature Synthesis of a Covalent Monolayer Sheet at Air/Water Interface Using a Shape-Persistent Photoreactive Amphiphilic Monomer

The shape-persistent monomer 3 with its three 1,8-diazaanthracene (DAA) units is spread and compressed at the air/water interface and the layer then converted into a 1.5 nm thick covalent monolayer sheet by photoirradiation under ambient conditions. The sheet obtained under these extremely mild conditions is mechanically stable to carry its own weight when spanned over TEM grids. While its molecular structure cannot be given yet with certainty, it is likely to be the result of [4 + 4]-cycloaddition dimerizations between the DAA units of neighboring monomers. Evidence is based on the wavelength of the monomer fluorescence emission, the kinetics of this emission's intensity decay with irradiation time, and the mechanical sheet stability that suggests a surpassing of percolation threshold. Finally, the thermal stability of the sheet is investigated.
