[PMID: 36548129 PMCID: PMC10107872 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202212782] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 10/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Two mononuclear ferric complexes are reported that respond to a pH change with a 27- and 71-fold jump, respectively, in their capacity to accelerate the longitudinal relaxation rate of water-hydrogen nuclei, and this starting from a negligible base value of only 0.06. This unprecedented performance bodes well for tackling the sensitivity issues hampering the development of Molecular MRI. The two chelates also excel in the fully reversible and fatigue-less nature of this phenomenon. The structural reasons for this performance reside in the macrocyclic nature of the hexa-dentate ligand, as well as the presence of a single pendant arm displaying a five-membered lactam or carbamate which show (perturbed) pKa values of 3.5 in the context of this N6 ⇔ ${ \Leftrightarrow }$ N5O1 coordination motif.

Abstract
A new monomer, 2-ferrocene-ethyl-2-oxazoline, was copolymerized with 2-alkyl-2-oxazolines. The cationic ring opening polymerization (CROP) of 2-oxazolines allows the synthesis of well-defined copolymers with adjustable molar masses as well as end-group control, which was also evident from kinetic studies. The utilization of this new comonomer led to redox-active polymers as proven by UV-VIS-measurements and cyclic-voltammetry.

Abstract
Tris(oxazolynylmethyl)amine TOAR (where R denotes the substituent groups on the fourth position of the oxazoline rings) complexes of nickel(ii) have been synthesized as catalyst precursors for alkane oxidation with meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA). The molecular structures of acetato, nitrato, meta-chlorobenzoato and chlorido complexes with TOAMe2 have been determined using X-ray crystallography. The bulkiness of the substituent groups R affects the coordination environment of the nickel(ii) centers, as has been demonstrated by comparison of the molecular structures of chlorido complexes with TOAMe2 and TOAtBu. The nickel(ii)-acetato complex with TOAMe2 is an efficient catalyst precursor compared with the tris(pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA) analogue. Oxazolynyl donors' strong σ-electron donating ability will enhance the catalytic activity. Catalytic reaction rates and substrate oxidizing position selectivity are controlled by the structural properties of the R of TOAR. Reaction of the acetato complex with TOAMe2 and m-CPBA yields the corresponding acylperoxido species, which can be detected using spectroscopy. Kinetic studies of the decay process of the acylperoxido species suggest that the acylperoxido species is a precursor of an active species for alkane oxidation.

Abstract
An 80-membered library of gels composed of monofunctional 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline and 2-nonyl-2-oxazoline and one of four selected difunctional 2-oxazolines (containing either ether or ester bonds) were synthesized by microwave-assisted ring-opening polymerizations. The difunctional 2-oxazolines were prepared from the thiol-ene reaction of glycol dimercaptoacetate or 2,2'-(ethylenedioxy)diethanethiol and 2-but-3'-enyl-2-oxazoline or 2-dec-9'-enyl-2-oxazoline. 53 of the gels exhibited glass-transition temperatures, which ranged from -5.9 to 45.3 °C. 13 Derivatives exhibited glass-transition temperatures in the range from 20 to 30 °C, which renders them stiff at room temperature and flexible at body temperature. The gels that did not contain any 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline acted as lipogels, whereas the gels that did not contain any 2-nonyl-2-oxazoline acted as hydrogels; all other gels may be classified as amphigels. The swelling degrees were measured by gravimetry and maximum swelling degrees of 6 (in water) were observed for the gels with the lowest degrees of crosslinking. In a second approach, the synthesis of crosslinked networks had been achieved by performing the polymeranalogous thiol-ene reaction of copoly(2-oxazoline)s containing olefinic side-chains and glycol dimercaptoacetate. This soft strategy enabled the straightforward loading of such gels with active pharmaceutical ingredients without altering them. This method delivered gels with selected composition exhibiting a targeted disc-shape and loaded with active pharmaceutical ingredients from one-step syntheses. The maximum swelling degrees of these specimens were found to be in accordance with the ones from the first route investigated. Preliminary degradation studies were performed at 25 °C; these types of gels were found to be degraded in alkaline media as well as by esterases.

Abstract
Unlike any other polymer class, the (co-)poly(2-oxazoline)s have tremendously benefited from the introduction of microwave reactors into chemical laboratories. This review focuses on the research activities in the area of (co-)poly(2-oxazoline)s prepared by microwave-assisted syntheses and, correspondingly, summarizes the current-state-of the-art of the microwave-assisted synthesis of 2-oxazoline monomers and the microwave-assisted ring-opening (co-)polymerization of 2-oxazolines as well as prominent examples of post-polymerization modification of (co-)poly(2-oxazoline)s. Special attention is attributed to the kinetic analysis of the microwave-assisted polymerization of 2-oxazolines and the discussion of non-thermal microwave effects.
