Synthesis and Regioselective Functionalization of Tetrafluorobenzo-[α]-Fused BOPYPY Dyes. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:9164-9174.

Abstract
The synthesis of a new bis-BF2 tetrafluorobenzo-[α]-fused BOPYPY dye from 4,5,6,7-tetrafluoroisoindole and 2-hydrazinopyrazine is reported. The regioselectivity of nucleophilic substitution reactions at the periphery of the tetrafluorinated BOPYPY and its α-bromo derivative were investigated using N-, O-, S-, and C-based nucleophiles. Among the aromatic fluorine atoms, the F2 atom is consistently regioselectively substituted, except when the α-position contains a thiophenol group; in this case, F4 is substituted instead due to stabilizing π-π-stacking between the two aromatic groups. The α-bromo BOPYPY derivative also reacts under Stille cross-coupling reaction conditions to produce the corresponding α-substituted product. The spectroscopic properties of these new fluorinated BOPYPYs were investigated and compared with nonfluorinated analogs.

Abstract
At room temperature, the title salt, C7H10NO+·Cl-, is ortho-rhom-bic, space group Pbca with Z' = 1, as previously reported [Zhao (2009 ▸). Acta Cryst. E65, o2378]. Between 250 and 200 K, there is a solid-state phase transition to a twinned monoclinic P21/c structure with Z' = 2. We report the high temperature structure at 250 K and the low-temperature structure at 100 K. In the low-temperature structure, the -NH3 hydrogen atoms are ordered and this group has a different orientation in each independent mol-ecule, in keeping with optimizing N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding, some of which are bifurcated: these hydrogen bonds have N⋯Cl distances in the range 3.1201 (8)-3.4047 (8) Å. In the single cation of the high-temperature structure, the NH hydrogen atoms are disordered into the average of the two low-temperature positions and the N⋯Cl hydrogen bond distances are in the range 3.1570 (15)-3.3323 (18) Å. At both temperatures, the meth-oxy group is nearly coplanar with the rest of the mol-ecule, with the C-C-O-C torsion angles being -7.0 (2)° at 250 K and -6.94 (12) and -9.35 (12)° at 100 K. In the extended ortho-rhom-bic structure, (001) hydrogen-bonded sheets occur; in the monoclinic structure, the sheets propagate in the (010) plane.

Abstract
The structure of the title compound, C9H10OTe, at 100 K has ortho-rhom-bic (P21212) symmetry with two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit (Z' = 2). The mol-ecules are folded along their Te⋯O axes, with their Te-C-O planes angled at an average of 25.1° with respect to the remaining non-H atoms, which are almost coplanar (average deviation from planarity = 0.04 Å). A Hirshfeld plot shows weak inter-molecular inter-actions between the two Te atoms located in each asymmetric mol-ecule, with a Te⋯Te distance of 3.7191 (4) Å. The structure is strongly pseudosymmetric to the space group Pccn with Z' = 1. The crystal chosen for data collection was found to be was an inversion twin.

Abstract
The reaction of Zn ions with β-octaalkylcorroles leads to the air oxidation of the macrocycle, with the formation of a mixture of 5- and 10-oxocorroles. Spectroscopic characterization confirms the antiaromatic character of these macrocycles. A simple synthetic protocol opens the way for more detailed studies of oxocorrole chemistry.

Abstract
Alkylation of one of the inner-core nitrogen atoms is one possible approach to obtain dianionic corrole ligands, suitable for the coordination of divalent metal ions, such as PdII . Inner-core N-methylation can be obtained by treating the corrole with CH3 I, but the reaction conditions should be optimized to limit the formation of the dimethylated derivative. Two regioisomers, the N-21 and the N-22 methyl derivatives are obtained from the reaction, with the first product achieved in a higher amount. Structural characterization of the reaction products evidenced the distortion induced by the introduction of the methyl groups; the N-methylcorroles are chiral compounds, and the enantiomers were separated by chromatography, with their absolute configuration assigned by ECD computation. Palladium insertion was achieved in the case of monosubstituted corroles, but not with the dimethylated macrocycle; X-ray characterization of the complexes showed the distortion of the macrocycles. The Pd complexes do not show luminescence emission, but are able to produce singlet oxygen upon irradiation. The PdII complexes were also inserted in human serum albumin (HSA) and dispersed in water; in this case, the protein protects the corroles from photobleaching, and a switch from the type II to the type I mechanism in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is observed.

Abstract
We report an enantioselective synthesis of cyclic ketones with full substitutions at the α-positions in a highly diastereoselective manner. Our method is achieved by subjecting substrate motifs in 2-allyloxyenones to chiral organomagnesium reagents, which trigger the Claisen rearrangement upon direct 1,2-carbonyl addition. The observed diastereoselectivity of the allyl migration is proposed to originate from the intramolecular chelation of the magnesium alkoxide to the allyloxy moiety.

Abstract
The reaction between CpRu(PPh3)2NCS (1a) and PMePh2 yields CpRu(PPh3)(PMePh2)NCS (2a) while CpRu(PPh3)(PMePh2)Cl reacts with SCN- to form the S-bonded isomer, CpRu(PPh3)(PMePh2)SCN (2b). Compound 1a and the linkage isomers of 2 were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The kinetics of the reaction between 1a and PMePh2 under pseudo-first order conditions in THF and in fluorobenzene to form 2a are consistent with a dissociative interchange mechanism. Activation parameters for the reaction are: ΔH† = 15.7 ± 0.6 kcal mol-1 and ΔS† = -35 ± 2 cal mol-1 K-1 in THF vs. ΔH† = 24.8 ± 1.2 kcal mol-1 and ΔS† = -6 ± 4 cal mol-1 K-1 in C6H5F. In the presence of added SCN-, the rate of phosphine substitution is unchanged but a mixture of 2a and 2b is observed. The selenocyanate derivative, CpRu(PPh3)2SeCN (3b), crystallizes as the Se-bonded linkage isomer. Compound 3b reacts with PMePh2 under pseudo-first order conditions in fluorobenzene to form CpRu(PPh3)(PMePh2)SeCN (4b) at a much faster rate than 1a with activation parameters: ΔH† = 30.9 ± 4.8 kcal mol-1 and ΔS† = 22.4 ± 15.9 cal mol-1 K-1 with no evidence for linkage isomerization to the N-bonded products.

Abstract
[HCo(CO)x(bisphosphine)](BF4), x = 1-3, is a highly active hydroformylation catalyst system, especially for internal branched alkenes. In situ infrared spectroscopy (IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and nuclear magnetic resonance studies support the proposed catalyst formulation. IR studies reveal the formation of a dicationic Co(I) paramagnetic CO-bridged dimer, [Co2(μ-CO)2(CO)(bisphosphine)2]2+, at lower temperatures formed from the reaction of two catalyst complexes via the elimination of H2. DFT studies indicate a dimer structure with square-pyramidal and tetrahedral cobalt centers. This monomer-dimer equilibrium is analogous to that seen for HCo(CO)4, reacting to eliminate H2 and form Co2(CO)8. EPR studies on the catalyst show a high-spin (S = 3/2) Co(II) complex. Reaction studies are presented that support the cationic Co(II) bisphosphine catalyst as the catalyst species present in this system and minimize the possible role of neutral Co(I) species, HCo(CO)4 or HCo(CO)3(phosphine), as catalysts.

Abstract
The title compound, C12H15NO3, crystallizes with Z' = 2 in space group Pca21 with the two independent mol-ecules having almost the same conformation, differing mostly at the end of the butanamide chain. A local inversion center near 1/8, 3/4, z relates the two mol-ecules, as is common for structures in this space group with Z' = 2. The mol-ecule crystallizes as the keto tautomer, and the β-diketone moieties are twisted out of planarity, with O-C⋯C-O pseudo torsion angles of -74.4 (5) and -83.9 (5)°. The N-H group of each independent mol-ecule donates an inter-molecular hydrogen bond to an amide carbonyl oxygen atom by positive or negative translations along the b axis, thus forming anti-parallel chains propagating in the [010] direction.

8( meso)-Pyridyl-BODIPYs: Effects of 2,6-Substitution with Electron-Withdrawing Nitro, Chloro, and Methoxycarbonyl Groups. Molecules 2023; 28:4581.

Abstract
The introduction of electron-withdrawing groups on 8(meso)-pyridyl-BODIPYs tends to increase the fluorescence quantum yields of this type of compound due to the decrease in electronic charge density on the BODIPY core. A new series of 8(meso)-pyridyl-BODIPYs bearing a 2-, 3-, or 4-pyridyl group was synthesized and functionalized with nitro and chlorine groups at the 2,6-positions. The 2,6-methoxycarbonyl-8-pyridyl-BODIPYs analogs were also synthesized by condensation of 2,4-dimethyl-3-methoxycarbonyl-pyrrole with 2-, 3-, or 4-formylpyridine followed by oxidation and boron complexation. The structures and spectroscopic properties of the new series of 8(meso)-pyridyl-BODIPYs were investigated both experimentally and computationally. The BODIPYs bearing 2,6-methoxycarbonyl groups showed enhanced relative fluorescence quantum yields in polar organic solvents due to their electron-withdrawing effect. However, the introduction of a single nitro group significantly quenched the fluorescence of the BODIPYs and caused hypsochromic shifts in the absorption and emission bands. The introduction of a chloro substituent partially restored the fluorescence of the mono-nitro-BODIPYs and induced significant bathochromic shifts.

Abstract
The study of the oxidation of various proteins necessitates scrutiny of the amino acid sequence. Since me-thio-nine (Met) and tyrosine (Tyr) are easily oxidized, peptides that contain these amino acids are frequently studied using a variety of oxidation methods, including, but not limited to, pulse radiolysis, electrochemical oxidation, and laser flash photolysis. To date, the oxidation of the Met-Tyr dipeptide is not fully understood. Several investigators have proposed a mechanism of intra-molecular electron transfer between the sulfide radical of Met and the Tyr residue. Our elucidation of the structure and absolute configuration of l-Met-l-Tyr monohydrate, C14H20N2O4S·H2O (systematic name: (2S)-2-{[(2S)-2-amino-4-methyl-sulfanyl-butano-yl]amino}-3-(4-hy-droxy-phen-yl)propanoic acid monohydrate) is presented herein and provides information about the zwitterionic nature of the dipeptide. We suspect that the zwitterionic state of the dipeptide and its inter-action within the solvent medium may play a major role in the oxidation of the dipeptide. In the crystal, all the potential donor atoms inter-act via strong N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O, O-H⋯S, and O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
The title compound, C9H10N2O4, crystallizes with a disordered nitro group in twinned crystals. Both the meth-oxy group and the acetamide groups are nearly coplanar with the phenyl ring, and the C-N-C-O torsion angle [0.2 (4)°] is also insignificantly different from zero. Overall, the 12-atom meth-oxy-phenyl-acetamide group is nearly planar, with an r.m.s. deviation of 0.042 Å. The nitro group is twisted out of this plane by about 30°, disordered into two orientations with opposite senses of twist. In the crystal, the N-H group donates a hydrogen bond to a nitro oxygen atom, generating chains propagating in the [101] direction. The amide carbonyl oxygen atom is not involved in the hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
In the title compound, racemic bucetin [systematic name: N-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxybutanamide], C12H17NO3, the molecule is in an extended conformation as illustrated by the C—O—C—C torsion angle [170.14 (15)°] in the ethoxy group and the subsequent C—N—C—C [−177.24 (16)°], N—C—C—C [170.08 (15)°] and C—C—C—C [171.41 (15)°] torsion angles in the butanamide chain. In the crystal, the O—H group donates an intermolecular O—H...O hydrogen bond to the amide carbonyl oxygen atom and also accepts an intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond from an adjacent N—H group. The former forms 12-membered dimeric rings about inversion centers, and the latter form chains in the [001] direction. The overall hydrogen-bonded network is two-dimensional, with no propagation in the [100] direction.

Abstract
The photoreactivity of d0 metal dioxo complexes in activating C-H bonds has been recently studied.1-3 We have previously reported that MoO2Cl2(bpy- t Bu) is an effective platform for light initiated C-H activation with unique product selectivity for the overall functionalization.1 Herein we expand on these studies and report the synthesis and photoreactivity of several new Mo(VI) dioxo complexes with the general formula MoO2(X)2(NN); where X= F-, Cl-, Br-, CH3-, PhO-, t BuO- and NN= 2,2´-bipyridine (bpy) or 4,4'-tert-butyl-2,2´bipyridine (bpy- t Bu). Among these compounds, MoO2Cl2(bpy- t Bu) and MoO2Br2(bpy- t Bu) are able to participate in bimolecular photoreactivity with several substrates containing C-H bonds of various types such as allyls, benzyls, aldehydes (RCHO) and alkanes. MoO2(CH3)2bpy and MoO2(PhO)2bpy do not participate in bimolecular photoreactions and instead they undergo photodecompositions. Computational studies indicate that the nature of the HOMO and LUMO is critical in supporting photoreactivity, with access to an LMCT (bpyàMo) being necessary for tractable hydrocarbon functionalization.

The structure of the title compound, C10H6N4O2, reported by Smalley et al. [(2021). Cryst. Growth Des. 22, 524-534] from powder diffraction data and 15N NMR spectroscopy, is confirmed using low-temperature data from a twinned crystal. The tautomer in the solid state is alloxazine (1H-benzo[g]pteridine-2,4-dione) rather than isoalloxazine (10H-benzo[g]pteridine-2,4-dione). In the extended structure, the mol-ecules form hydrogen-bonded chains propagating in the [01] direction through alternating centrosymmetric R 2 2(8) rings with pairwise N-H⋯O inter-actions and centrosymmetric R 2 2(8) rings with pairwise N-H⋯N inter-actions. The crystal chosen for data collection was found to be a non-merohedral twin (180° rotation about [001]) in a 0.446 (4):0.554 (6) domain ratio.

Abstract
Ion pair receptors typically contain two separate binding sites, for the metal and the anion respectively. Here we report a less synthetically demanding approach, whereby we prepared a family of ion pair sensors based on a rhodamine fluorescent scaffold containing a tunable cation binding motif. When exposed to ion pairs, a competition for the metal ion is established between these ligands and anions. Structural and spectroscopic evidence showed that anions bind through weaker secondary interactions in the metal's outer coordination sphere and their presence influences the optical spectroscopic properties of the coordination complex in distinctive ways. The relationship between the binding site's metal affinity and its tunable properties, and the sensors' discriminatory power for anions was explained as a function of the metal ion's binding preferences. These effects were also exploited to discriminate cations and anions concurrently through multivariate data analysis methods.

Abstract
Boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) dyes bearing a pyridyl moiety have been used as metal ion sensors, pH sensors, fluorescence probes, and as sensitizers for phototherapy. A comparative study of the properties of the three structural isomers of meso-pyridyl-BODIPYs, their 2,6-dichloro derivatives, and their corresponding methylated cationic pyridinium-BODIPYs was conducted using spectroscopic and electrochemical methods, X-ray analyses, and TD-DFT calculations. Among the neutral derivatives, the 3Py and 4Py isomers showed the highest relative fluorescence quantum yields in organic solvents, which were further enhanced 2-4-fold via the introduction of two chlorines at the 2,6-positions. Among the cationic derivatives, the 2catPy showed the highest relative fluorescence quantum yield in organic solvents, which was further enhanced by the use of a bulky counter anion (PF6-). In water, the quantum yields were greatly reduced for all three isomers but were shown to be enhanced upon introduction of 2,6-dichloro groups. Our results indicate that 2,6-dichloro-meso-(2- and 3-pyridinium)-BODIPYs are the most promising for sensing applications. Furthermore, all pyridinium BODIPYs are highly water-soluble and display low cytotoxicity towards human HEp2 cells.

Abstract
![]()
We describe a new
synthetic reaction that generates all-carbon
bis-quaternary centers at the opposing side of α-carbons in
cyclohexanone with four different substituents in a controlled manner.
Catalyzed by Cu(MeCN)4BF4 salt, this chemistry
is proposed to proceed via an intermediacy of unsymmetrical O-allyl oxyallyl cations, which undergo a sequence of regioselective
nucleophilic addition with substituted indoles and diastereoselective
Claisen rearrangement in a single synthetic operation. The stereochemical
outcome of the products features the cis diastereorelationship
between the two aryl groups at the α,α′-positions.

Abstract
The title compound, C8H4N4Te2, is the first reported [1,4]tellura[2,3-b:5,6-b′]dipyrazine. Three independent unit-cell molecules are folded along their Te⋯Te axes, with an average angle φ = 57.9°. C—Te—C angles range from 91.48 (6) to 93.80 (6)°. Intermolecular N⋯Te bonding interactions between tellurium atoms of the central ring and the pyrazine N atoms of adjacent molecules result in a supramolecular helix motif. [1,4]Ditellurino[2,3-b:5,6-b′]dipyrazine represents the first reported [1,4]chalcogena[2,3-b:5,6-b′]dipyrazine containing a heavy chalcogens The asymmetric unit consists of three molecules. In contrast to its sulfur analog, which is planar [Lynch et al. (1994 ▸) Cryst. Struct. Commun.50,1470–1472], C8H4N4Te2 is folded along the Te⋯Te axis to accommodate the larger chalcogenide atoms. The dihedral angle between the two Te2C2 rings of the central ring is 57.9° (mean of three). C—Te bond lengths range from 2.1105 (16) Å to 2.1381 (17) Å, in good agreement with those predicted by their covalent radii. All Te atoms are involved in intermolecular Te⋯N contacts, with distances in the range 2.894 (2) to 2.963 (2) Å. These result in a spiral supramolecular assembly, forming helical columns.![]()

Abstract
The synthesis and reactivity of 3,8-dibromo-dodecafluoro-benzo-fused BOPHY 2 are reported, via SN Ar with O-, N- S- and C-nucleophiles, and in Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions (Suzuki and Stille). The resulting perfluoro-BOPHY derivatives were investigated for their reactivity in the presence of various nucleophiles. BOPHY 3 displays reversible color change and fluorescence quenching in the presence of bases (Et3 N, DBU), whereas BOPHY 7 reacts preferentially at the α-pyrrolic positions, and BOPHY 8 undergoes regioselective fluorine substitution in the presence of thiols. The structural and electronic features of the fluorinated BOPHYs were studied by TD-DFT computations. In addition, their spectroscopic and cellular properties were investigated; BOPHY 10 shows the most red-shifted absorption/emission (λmax 659/699 nm) and 7 the highest fluorescence (Φf =0.95), while all compounds studied showed low cytotoxicity toward human HEp2 cells and were efficiently internalized.

Abstract
In the title compound, C9H10N2O4, the three substituents vary in the degree of lack of planarity with the central phenyl ring. The methoxy group is nearest to being coplanar, with a C—C—O—C torsion angle of 6.1 (5)°. The nitro group is less coplanar, with a 12.8 (5)° twist about the C—N bond and the acetamido group is considerably less coplanar with the central ring, having a 25.4 (5)° twist about the C—N bond to the ring. The NH group forms an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond to a nitro-group O atom.

Abstract
In our ongoing effort to investigate active specialised metabolites from genus Glandularia, phytochemical studies on the ethanolic extract of Glandularia × hybrida (Groenl. & Rümpler) G.L. Nesom & Pruski leaves resulted in the isolation of three undescribed compounds, a dibenzylbutyrolactolic lignan and two echinocystic acid based triterpenoid saponins, in addition to two known compounds. Interestingly, this study reports isolation of chemo-systematically valuable specialised metabolites for the first time from the genus under investigation. Additionally, the isolated metabolites were evaluated for their iNOS inhibition and cytotoxic activities using a combination of in silico and in vitro studies. The pharmacokinetics properties (ADMET) of some of the isolated compounds were determined using pkCSM-pharmacokinetics server. Molecular docking analysis showed that saponin compound possesses higher negative score (-9.59 kcal/mol) than the lignan compound (-6.56 kcal/mol). The isolated compounds also showed iNOS inhibition activity with IC50 values ranging between 6.6 and 49.7 μM and significant cytotoxic activity against a series of cell lines including SK-MEL, KB, BT-549, SK-OV-3, LLC-PK1 and VERO cells. Hence, this study reveals that specialised metabolites from G. hybrida plant are of significant anti-inflammatory and cytotoxicity potentials.

Abstract
Three novel small organic heterocyclic compounds: 2-(1,2-diphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-7-tert-butylpyrene (compound A), 1,3-di(1,2-diphenyl)-1H-benzimidazole-7-tert-butylpyrene (compound B), and 1,3,6,8-tetra(1,2-diphenyl)-1H-benzimidazolepyrene (compound C) were synthesized and characterized for possible applications as blue OLED emitters. The specific molecular design targeted decreasing intermolecular aggregation and disrupting crystallinity in the solid-state, in order to reduce dye aggregation, and thus obtain efficient pure blue photo- and electroluminescence. Accordingly, the new compounds displayed reasonably high spectral purity in both solution- and solid-states with average CIE coordinates of (0.160 ± 0.005, 0.029 ± 0.009) in solution and (0.152 ± 0.007, 0.126 ± 0.005) in solid-state. These compounds showed a systematic decrease in degree of crystallinity and intermolecular aggregation due to increasing steric hindrance, as revealed using powder X-ray diffraction analysis and spectroscopic studies. An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) prototype fabricated using compound B as the non-doped emissive layer displayed an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.35 (±0.04)% and luminance 100 (±6) cd m−2 at 5.5 V with an essentially pure blue electroluminescence corresponding to CIE coordinates of (0.1482, 0.1300). The highest EQE observed from this OLED prototype was 4.3 (±0.3)% at 3.5 V, and the highest luminance of 290 (±10) cd m−2 at 7.5 V. These values were found comparable to characteristics of the best pure blue OLED devices based on simple fluorescent small-molecule organic chromophores.

Abstract
Large scale synthesis of cycloparaphenyleneacetylenes has been challenging due to low macrocyclization yields and harsh aromatization methods that often decompose strained alkynes. Herein, a cis-stilbene-based building block is subjected to alkyne metathesis macrocylization. The following sequence of alkene-selective bromination and dehydrobromination afforded a [8]cycloparaphenyleneacetylene derivative in high yield with good scalability. X-Ray crystal structure and computational analysis revealed a unique same-rim conformation for the eight methyl groups on the nanohoop.

Abstract
A family of coumarin-enamine chemodosimeters is evaluated for their potential use as fluorescent molecular probes for multiple analytes [cadmium(II), cobalt(II), copper(II), iron(II), nickel(II), lead(II), and zinc(II)], as their chloride and acetate salts. These fluorophores displayed excellent optical spectroscopic modulation when exposed to ion pairs with different Lewis acidic and basic properties in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The chemodosimeters were designed to undergo excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), which leads to significant Stokes shifts (ca. 225 nm) and lower-energy fluorescence emission (ca. 575 nm). A more basic anion, e.g., acetate, inhibited the ESIPT mechanism by deprotonation of the enol, producing a binding pocket (N^O- chelate) that can coordinate to an appropriate metal ion. Coordination of the metal ions enhances the fluorescent intensity via the chelation-enhanced fluorescence emission mechanism. Subjecting the spectroscopic data to linear discriminant analysis provided insights into the source of these systems' markedly different behavior toward ion pairs, despite the subtle structural differences in the organic framework. These compounds are examples of versatile, low-molecular-weight, dual-channel fluorescent sensors for ion-pair recognition. This study paves the way for using these probes as practical components of a sensing array for different metal ions and their respective anions.

Abstract
![]()
The
intermediacy of metallacyclobutadienes as part of a [2 + 2]/retro-[2
+ 2] cycloaddition-based mechanism is a well-established paradigm
in alkyne metathesis with alternative species viewed as off-cycle
decomposition products that interfere with efficient product formation.
Recent work has shown that the exclusive intermediate isolated from
a siloxide podand-supported molybdenum-based catalyst was not the
expected metallacyclobutadiene but instead a dynamic metallatetrahedrane.
Despite their paucity in the chemical literature, theoretical work
has shown these species to be thermodynamically more stable as well
as having modest barriers for cycloaddition. Consequentially, we report
the synthesis of a library of group VI alkylidynes as well as the
roles metal identity, ligand flexibility, secondary coordination sphere,
and substrate identity all have on isolable intermediates. Furthermore,
we report the disparities in catalyst competency as a function of
ligand sterics and metal choice. Dispersion-corrected DFT calculations
are used to shed light on the mechanism and role of ligand and metal
on the intermediacy of metallacyclobutadiene and metallatetrahedrane
as well as their implications to alkyne metathesis.

Abstract
Three new Pt complexes, [PtCl2(N(SO2(2-nap))dpa)], [PtCl2(N(SO2(1-nap))dpa)] and [PtCl2(N(SO2pip)dpa)], containing a rare 8-membered ring were synthesized in good yield and high purity by utilizing the ligands N(SO2(2-nap))dpa, N(SO2(1-nap))dpa and N(SO2pip)dpa, which contain a dipicolylamine moiety. Structural studies of all three complexes confirmed that the ligands are bound in a bidentate mode via Pt–N(pyridyl) bonds forming a rare 8-membered ring. The intense fluorescence displayed by the ligands is quenched upon coordination to Pt. According to time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations, the key excitations of N(SO2(2-nap))dpa and [PtCl2(N(SO2(1-nap))dpa)] involve the 2-nap-ligand-centered π → π* excitations. While all six compounds have shown antiproliferative activity against human breast cancer cells (MCF-7), the N(SO2pip)dpa and N(SO2(2-nap))dpa ligands and [PtCl2((NSO2pip)dpa)] complex have shown significantly high cytotoxicity, directing them to be further investigated as potential anti-cancer drug leads. Three new Pt complexes, [PtCl2(N(SO2(2-nap))dpa)], [PtCl2(N(SO2(1-nap))dpa)] and [PtCl2(N(SO2pip)dpa)], containing a rare 8-membered ring were synthesized in good yield and high purity by utilizing ligands which contain a dipicolylamine moiety.![]()

Abstract
The title compound, [Fe(C13H11N4)2], was synthesized starting from 1,1'-ferro-cene-di-carb-oxy-lic acid in a three-step reaction sequence. The di-carb-oxy-lic acid was reduced to 1,1'-ferrocenedi-methanol using LiAlH4 and subsequently converted to 1,1'-bis-(azido-meth-yl)ferrocene in the presence of NaN3. The diazide was treated with 2-ethynyl-pyridine under 'click' conditions to give the title compound in 75% yield. The FeII center lies on an inversion center in the crystal. The two pyridyl-triazole wings are oriented in an anti conformation and positioned exo from the FeII center. In the solid state, the mol-ecules inter-act by C-H⋯N, C-H⋯π, and π-π inter-actions. The complexation of the ligand with [Cu(CH3CN)4](PF6) gives a tetra-nuclear dimeric complex.

Such organic compounds can possess conjugation and/or aromatic systems, with one example being tetraphenylcyclopentadienone and its derivatives. A trio of dramatically coloured tetraphenylcyclopentadienone derivatives with varied substituents on the aromatic rings in the 3- and 4-positions were prepared. Their identities were confirmed using the usual methods, for example 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and their purity quantified using elemental analysis. The X-ray crystal structure of compound 2 was determined. Its notable structural features involved the cyclopentadienone core with its distinct C-C and C=C bond lengths and its overall nonplanarity, both of which served to mitigate its antiaromatic nature. Chloroform solutions of compounds 2-4 exhibited absorption spectra with three absorption bands at approximately 250, 350, and 500 nm that were assigned to (π)→(π*) transitions. Computational chemistry methods assisted in assigning the observed transitions to a specific molecular orbital combination in the structures of 2-4. Emission in the red end of the visible spectrum (550-625 nm) was observed from chloroform solutions of all three of the prepared compounds.

Abstract
In the title compound, C10H11N3O6, the torsion angles about the bonds to the benzene ring are less than 4°, except for the nitro groups, which are twisted out of the ring plane by 25.27 (3) and 43.63 (2)°. The N—H group forms a bifurcated hydrogen bond, with an intramolecular component to a nitro group O atom and an intermolecular component to the other nitro group, thereby forming chains propagating in the [010] direction. Several weak C—H...O interactions are also present.

Synthesis and crystal structures of 2-(ferrocenyl-carbon-yl)benzoic acid and 3-ferrocenylphthalide. Acta Crystallogr E Crystallogr Commun 2020; 76:1163-1167.

Abstract
The title compounds, 2-(ferrocenylcarbon-yl)benzoic acid, [Fe(C5H5)(C13H9O3)], 1, and 3-ferrocenylphthalide [systematic name: 3-ferrocenyl-2-benzo-furan-1(3H)-one], [Fe(C5H5)(C13H9O2)], 2, have been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal structure of compound 1 was solved recently at room temperature [Qin, Y. (2019 ▸). CSD Communication (CCDC deposition number 1912662). CCDC, Cambridge, England]. Here we report a redetermination of its crystal structure at 90 K with improved precision by a factor of about three. The mol-ecular structures of both compounds exhibit a typical sandwich structure. In the crystal packing of compound 1, each mol-ecule engages in inter-molecular hydrogen bonding, forming a centrosymmetric dimer with graph-set notation R 2 2 (8) and an O⋯O distance of 2.6073 (15) Å. There are weak C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions in the crystal packing of compound 2. The phthalide moiety in 2 is oriented roughly perpendicular to the ferrocene backbone, with a dihedral angle of 77.4 (2)°.

Abstract
Three BODIPYs bearing 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl substituents and a meso-8-aryl group were synthesized and investigated, both experimentally and computationally. The presence of the 1,7-methyl groups and of ortho-substituents on the meso-8-aryl ring prevent free rotation of the meso-8-aryl group, resulting in high fluorescence quantum yields. Substitution at the 2,6-positions of these BODIPYs with chlorine atoms causes pronounced red-shifted absorptions and emissions, and in the case of 2,6-dichloro-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-(2,4,6-triphenylphenyl)-BODIPY 2c increases its fluorescence quantum yields to 0.93 in dichloromethane and 0.98 in toluene. The X-ray structure of 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-8-(2,4,6-triphenylphenyl)-BODIPY shows increased deviation from planarity and smaller dihedral angle of the meso-8-aryl group compared with the meso-8-phenyl- and meso-8-mesityl-BODIPY analogs. The presence of 2,6-chlorine atoms was found to not significantly affect the rotational barriers of the meso-8-aryl-groups.

Abstract
Fluoroalkenes serve as bioisosteres to peptide bonds and are resistant to hydrolytic enzymes in vivo. Currently, α-fluoro-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds are readily accessible via general synthetic methods; however, β-fluoro-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl groups are more challenging to construct. To address this need, we have designed a reagent, morpholine 3,3,3-trifluoropropanamide, that creates (E)-β-fluoro-α,β-unsaturated amides upon the addition of many commonly used Grignard reagents. Reactions with this reagent enable a high level of stereocontrol in the fluoroalkene product.
