    Stereoretentive regio‐ und enantioselektive Allylierung von Isoxazolinonen per planar chiralem Palladacyclus‐Katalysator
    (2022) Yu, Xin; Hu, Lingfei; Frey, Wolfgang; Lu, Gang; Peters, René
    Die katalytische allylische Substitution ist eines der wichtigsten Werkzeuge in der asymmetrischen Synthese zur enantioselektiven Bildung von C-C-Bindungen. Während in vorigen Arbeiten eine hohe Effizienz in Bezug auf Enantio- und Regiokontrolle unter Verwendung verschiedener Katalysatortypen erreicht wurde, besteht eine starke allgemeine Einschränkung in einer sehr ausgeprägten Präferenz für die Bildung von allylischen Substitutionsprodukten mit (E)-konfigurierten C=C-Doppelbindungen. Hier berichten wir, dass mit einem planar-chiralen Palladacyclus-Katalysator unter Verwendung von Isoxazolinonen und Allylimidaten als Substrate ein diastereospezifisches Reaktionsergebnis erzielt wird, wodurch die C=C-Doppelbindungsgeometrie der Allylsubstrate in den hoch enantiomerenangereicherten Produkten beibehalten wird. DFT-Rechnungen zeigen, dass die Reaktionen über einen SN2-Mechanismus und nicht über π-Allyl-Pd-Komplexe ablaufen. Entscheidend für die hohe Kontrolle ist die Stabilisierung des allylischen Fragments im SN2-Übergangszustand durch π-Wechselwirkungen mit den Phenylsubstituenten des Pentaphenylferrocen-Katalysatorkerns.

    Structural characterization of surface immobilized platinum hydrides by sensitivity-enhanced 195Pt solid state NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations
    (2024) Atterberry, Benjamin A.; Wimmer, Erik J.; Klostermann, Sina; Frey, Wolfgang; Kästner, Johannes; Estes, Deven P.; Rossini, Aaron J.
    Supported single-site platinum hydride compounds are promising heterogeneous catalysts for organic transformations. Few methods exist to describe the structures of single-site Pt catalysts with atomic resolution because of their disordered structures and low Pt loadings. Here, we study the compounds formed when bis(tri-tert-butylphosphino)platinum, Pt(PtBu3)2, is supported on dehydroxylated SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3. First, we obtain magic angle spinning (MAS) 1H, 31P and 195Pt ssNMR spectra of four model Pt phosphine compounds with oxidation states of 0 or +2 and coordination numbers between 2 and 4. These compounds are analogs of potential structures present in the supported compounds. MAS 195Pt ssNMR spectra were obtained using 31P{195Pt} sideband selective J-resolved and J-HMQC experiments. The measured 1H and 31P chemical shifts, 31P-195Pt J-couplings and 195Pt chemical shift (CS) tensors are shown to be diagnostic of oxidation state and coordination number. Room temperature 1H ssNMR spectra of Pt(PtBu3)2 supported on SiO2 or SiO2-Al2O3 show diagnostic hydride NMR signals, suggesting that Pt(PtBu3)2 undergoes oxidative addition, resulting in surface hydrides and Pt–oxygen bonds to the support surface. MAS dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) enables 31P{195Pt} correlation NMR experiments on the supported compounds. These experiments enable the measurement of the 31P-195Pt J-coupling constants and 195Pt CS tensors. Combined NMR and DFT analyses suggest that the primary surface platinum species are [HPt(PtBu3)2OSi] on SiO2 and [HPt(PtBu3)2]+[Si-O--Al] on SiO2-Al2O3. The Pt-oxygen bond length is dependent on the support and estimated as 2.1-2.3 Å and 2.7-3.0 Å for SiO2 and SiO2-Al2O3, respectively.

    The coordination behaviour of CuI photosensitizers bearing multidentate ligands investigated by X‐ray absorption spectroscopy
    (2020) Rentschler, Martin; Iglesias, Sirma; Schmid, Marie‐Ann; Liu, Cunming; Tschierlei, Stefanie; Frey, Wolfgang; Zhang, Xiaoyi; Karnahl, Michael; Moonshiram, Dooshaye
    A systematic series of four novel homo‐ and heteroleptic CuI photosensitizers based on tetradentate 1,10‐phenanthroline ligands of the type X^N^N^X containing two additional donor moieties in the 2,9‐position (X=SMe or OMe) were designed. Their solid‐state structures were assessed by X‐ray diffraction. Cyclic voltammetry, UV‐vis absorption, emission and X‐ray absorption spectroscopy were then used to determine their electrochemical, photophysical and structural features in solution. Following, time‐resolved X‐ray absorption spectroscopy in the picosecond time scale, coupled with time‐dependent density functional theory calculations, provided in‐depth information on the excited state electron configurations. For the first time, a significant shortening of the Cu−X distance and a change in the coordination mode to a pentacoordinated geometry is shown in the excited states of the two homoleptic complexes. These findings are important with respect to a precise understanding of the excited state structures and a further stabilization of this type of photosensitizers.

    (2024) Marshall, Max; Dilruba, Zarfishan; Beurer, Ann‐Katrin; Bieck, Kira; Emmerling, Sebastian; Markus, Felix; Vogler, Charlotte; Ziegler, Felix; Fuhrer, Marina; Liu, Sherri S. Y.; Kousik, Shravan R.; Frey, Wolfgang; Traa, Yvonne; Bruckner, Johanna R.; Plietker, Bernd; Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Ludwigs, Sabine; Naumann, Stefan; Atanasova, Petia; Lotsch, Bettina V.; Zens, Anna; Laschat, Sabine
    Covalent immobilization of chiral dienes in mesoporous solids for asymmetric heterogeneous catalysis is highly attractive. In order to study confinement effects in bimolecular vs monomolecular reactions, a series of pseudo‐C2‐symmetrical tetrahydropentalenes was synthesized and immobilized via click reaction on different mesoporous solids (silica, carbon, covalent organic frameworks) and compared with homogeneous conditions. Two types of Rh‐catalyzed reactions were studied: (a) bimolecular nucleophilic 1,2‐additions of phenylboroxine to N‐tosylimine and (b) monomolecular isomerization of isoxazole to 2H‐azirne. Polar support materials performed better than non‐polar ones. Under confinement, bimolecular reactions showed decreased yields, whereas yields in monomolecular reactions were only little affected. Regarding enantioselectivity the opposite trend was observed, i. e. effective enantiocontrol for bimolecular reactions but only little control for monomolecular reactions was found.

    How the way a naphthalimide unit is implemented affects the photophysical and -catalytic properties of Cu(I) photosensitizers
    (2022) Yang, Yingya; Doettinger, Florian; Kleeberg, Christian; Frey, Wolfgang; Karnahl, Michael; Tschierlei, Stefanie
    Driven by the great potential of solar energy conversion this study comprises the evaluation and comparison of two different design approaches for the improvement of copper based photosensitizers. In particular, the distinction between the effects of a covalently linked and a directly fused naphthalimide unit was assessed. For this purpose, the two heteroleptic Cu(I) complexes CuNIphen (NIphen = 5-(1,8-naphthalimide)-1,10-phenanthroline) and Cubiipo (biipo = 16H-benzo-[4′,5′]-isoquinolino-[2′,1′,:1,2]-imidazo-[4,5-f]-[1,10]-phenanthroline-16-one) were prepared and compared with the novel unsubstituted reference compound Cuphen (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). Beside a comprehensive structural characterization, including two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and X-ray analysis, a combination of electrochemistry, steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy was used to determine the electrochemical and photophysical properties in detail. The nature of the excited states was further examined by (time-dependent) density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. It was found that CuNIphen exhibits a greatly enhanced absorption in the visible and a strong dependency of the excited state lifetimes on the chosen solvent. For example, the lifetime of CuNIphen extends from 0.37 µs in CH2Cl2 to 19.24 µs in MeCN, while it decreases from 128.39 to 2.6 µs in Cubiipo. Furthermore, CuNIphen has an exceptional photostability, allowing for an efficient and repetitive production of singlet oxygen with quantum yields of about 32%.

    Predicting catalytic activity from 13CCH alkylidene chemical shift in cationic tungsten oxo alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes
    (2021) Musso, Janis V.; Schowner, Roman; Falivene, Laura; Frey, Wolfgang; Cavallo, Luigi; Buchmeiser, Michael R.
    A series of cationic tungsten oxo alkylidene N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. The 13C NMR chemical shifts of the alkylidene C atoms of these complexes were correlated with the diamagnetic, paramagnetic and spin‐orbit chemical shifts calculated by DFT. A good correlation (R2=0.90) between the DFT isotropic chemical shifts and the experimental chemical shift as well as a strong correlation between the DFT isotropic chemical shifts and the TOF1min for the RCM of 1,7‐octadiene was found. Further, a comparison of the catalyst geometries allowed for assigning tetracoordinate pseudotetrahedral catalysts to the most deshielded alkylidenes and to the highest TOF1min, pentacoordinate square‐planar catalysts to the intermediate deshielded alkylidenes and intermediate TOF1min, and hexacoordinate and octahedral catalyst to the most shielded alkylidene and lowest TOF1min. Analysis of the magnetic shielding tensors allowed for ascribing variations in the chemical shifts to electronic transitions between occupied molecular orbitals corresponding to the alkylidene‐C and alkylidene‐H σ‐bonds and the empty molecular orbital corresponding to the W‐alkylidene σ*‐bond.

    Precursor molecules for 1,2-diamidobenzene containing cobalt(ii), nickel(ii) and zinc(ii) complexes : synthesis and magnetic properties
    (2024) Hunger, David; Suhr, Simon; Bayer, Valentin; Albold, Uta; Frey, Wolfgang; Sarkar, Biprajit; Slageren, Joris van
    Molecular magnetic materials based on 1,2-diamidobenzenes are well known and have been intensively studied both experimentally and computationally. They possess interesting magnetic properties as well as redox activity. In this work, we present the synthesis and investigation of potent synthons for constructing discrete metal-organic architectures featuring 1,2-diamidobenzene-coordinated metal centres. The synthons feature weakly bound dimethoxyethane (dme) ligands in addition to the 1,2-diamidobenzene. We characterize these complexes and investigate their magnetic properties by means of static and dynamic magnetometry and high-field electron paramagnetic resonance (HFEPR). Interestingly, the magnetic and magnetic resonance data strongly suggest a dimeric formulation of these complexes, viz. [MII(bmsab)(dme)]2 (bmsab = 1,2-bis(methanesulfonamido)benzene; dme = dimethoxyethane) with M = Co, Ni, Zn. A large negative D-value of -60 cm-1 was found for the Co(ii) synthon and an equally large negative D of -50 cm-1 for the Ni(ii) synthon. For Co(ii), the sign of the D-value is the same as that found for the known bis-diamidobenzene complexes of this ion. In contrast, the negative D-value for the Ni(ii) complex is unexpected, which we explain in terms of a change in coordination number. The heteroleptic Co(ii) complex presented here does not feature slow relaxation of the magnetization, in contrast to the homoleptic Co(ii) 1,2-diamidobenzene complex.

    Non-porous organic crystals and their interaction with guest molecules from the gas phase
    (2020) Casco, Mirian Elizabeth; Krupp, Felix; Grätz, Sven; Schwenger, Alexander; Damakoudi, Vassiliki; Richert, Clemens; Frey, Wolfgang; Borchardt, Lars
    Some organic molecules encapsulate solvents upon crystallization. One class of compounds that shows a high propensity to form such crystalline solvates are tetraaryladamantanes (TAAs). Recently, tetrakis(dialkoxyphenyl)-adamantanes have been shown to encapsulate a wide range of guest molecules in their crystals, and to stabilize the guest molecules against undesired reactions. The term ‘encapsulating organic crystals’ (EnOCs) has been coined for these species. In this work, we studied the behavior of three TAAs upon exposition to different guest molecules by means of sorption technique. We firstly measured the vapor adsorption/desorption isotherms with water, tetrahydrofuran and toluene, and secondly, we studied the uptake of methane on dry and wet TAAs. Uptake of methane beyond one molar equivalent was detected for wet crystals, even though the materials showed a lack of porosity. Thus far, such behavior, which we ascribe to methane hydrate formation, had been described for porous non-crystalline materials or crystals with detectable porosity, not for non-porous organic crystals. Our results show that TAA crystals have interesting properties beyond the formation of conventional solvates. Gas-containing organic crystals may find application as reservoirs for gases that are difficult to encapsulate or are slow to form crystalline hydrates in the absence of a host compound. Wet tetraaryladamantane crystals take up methane in form of methane hydrate structure I, even though they appear non-porous to argon.

    A common C2‐symmetric 2,2’‐biphenol building block and its application in the synthesis of (+)‐di‐epi‐gonytolide A
    (2023) Greb, Julian; Drennhaus, Till; Klischan, Moritz K. T.; Schroeder, Zachary W.; Frey, Wolfgang; Pietruszka, Jörg
    A variety of biaryl polyketides exhibit remarkable bioactivities. However, their synthetic accessibility is often challenging. Herein, the enantioselective preparation and synthetic application of an axially chiral 2,2’‐biphenol building block is outlined that represents a common motif of these intriguing natural products. Based on the highly regioselective and scalable bromination of a phenol precursor, a coupling process by Lipshutz cuprate oxidation was developed. A copper‐mediated deracemization strategy proved to be superior to derivatization or kinetic resolution approaches. Key steps in the overall building block synthesis were rationalized through DFT studies. Utilizing the 2,2’‐biphenol, a highly diastereoselective five step synthesis of formerly unknown (+)‐di‐epi‐gonytolide A was developed, thus showcasing the building block's general potential for the synthesis of natural products and their derivatives. En route, the first enantioselective construction of a chromone dimer intermediate was established.

    Cooperative Lewis acid‐1,2,3‐triazolium‐aryloxide catalysis : pyrazolone addition to nitroolefins as entry to diaminoamides
    (2023) Wanner, Daniel M.; Becker, Patrick M.; Suhr, Simon; Wannenmacher, Nick; Ziegler, Slava; Herrmann, Justin; Willig, Felix; Gabler, Julia; Jangid, Khushbu; Schmid, Juliane; Hans, Andreas C.; Frey, Wolfgang; Sarkar, Biprajit; Kästner, Johannes; Peters, René
    Pyrazolones represent an important structural motif in active pharmaceutical ingredients. Their asymmetric synthesis is thus widely studied. Still, a generally highly enantio- and diastereoselective 1,4-addition to nitroolefins providing products with adjacent stereocenters is elusive. In this article, a new polyfunctional CuII-1,2,3-triazolium-aryloxide catalyst is presented which enables this reaction type with high stereocontrol. DFT studies revealed that the triazolium stabilizes the transition state by hydrogen bonding between C(5)-H and the nitroolefin and verify a cooperative mode of activation. Moreover, they show that the catalyst adopts a rigid chiral cage/pore structure by intramolecular hydrogen bonding, by which stereocontrol is achieved. Control catalyst systems confirm the crucial role of the triazolium, aryloxide and CuII, requiring a sophisticated structural orchestration for high efficiency. The addition products were used to form pyrazolidinones by chemoselective C=N reduction. These heterocycles are shown to be valuable precursors toward β,γ’-diaminoamides by chemoselective nitro and N-N bond reductions. Morphological profiling using the Cell painting assay identified biological activities for the pyrazolidinones and suggest modulation of DNA synthesis as a potential mode of action. One product showed biological similarity to Camptothecin, a lead structure for cancer therapy.
