Anion-induced structural diversity of Zn and Cd coordination polymers based on bis-9,10-(pyridine-4-yl)-anthracene, their luminescent properties, and highly efficient sensing of nitro derivatives and herbicides

Vasylevskyi, Serhii I. ; Bassani, Dario M. ; Fromm, Katharina M.

In: Inorganic Chemistry, 2019, vol. 58, no. 9, p. 5646–5653

Luminescent coordination polymers (CPs) of Zn2+ or Cd2+ and bis-9,10-(pyridine-4- yl)-anthracene (BA) show different 1D and 2D topologies depending on the anion used in the precursor. Compounds {[Zn(μ2-BA)(MeOH)2(p-Tos)2]}n (1) and {[Zn(μ2- BA)(MeOH)2(CF3CO2)2]}n (2) form linear structures and {BA@[Zn(μ2-BA) (MeOH)2(H2O)2](CF3SO3)2}n (3) featuring intercalation of uncoordinated BA molecules...

Application of photoclick chemistry for the synthesis of pyrazoles via 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition between alkynes and nitrilimines generated in situ

Remy, Richard ; Bochet, Christian G.

In: European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018, vol. 2018, no. 3, p. 316–328

The photochemical extrusion of gaseous nitrogen from 2,5-disubstituted tetrazoles to generate reactive nitrilimines in situ represents an efficient and attractive way to form dipoles that can be used to provide useful chemicals via 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions. The concept of “photoclick chemistry” already inspired numerous researchers, who exploited photochemical processes involving...

Branched polymers via ROMP of termimers

Hanik, Nils ; Kilbinger, Andreas F. M.

In: Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2016, vol. 37, no. 6, p. 532–538

Today's olefin metathesis catalysts show high reactivity, selectivity, and functional group tolerance and allow the design of new syntheses of precisely functionalized polymers. Here the synthesis of a new end-capping reagent is investigated allowing the introduction of a highly reactive activated ester end-group at the polymer chain end as well as its prefunctionalization to directly...

Chelating C4-bound imidazolylidene complexes through oxidative addition of imidazolium salts to palladium(0)

Krüger, Anneke ; Kluser, Evelyne ; Müller-Bunz, Helge ; Neels, Antonia ; Albrecht, Martin

In: European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, 2012, p. -

Oxidative addition of donor-functionalised 4-iodoimidazolium salts to palladium(0) provides a selective route for the preparation of abnormal chelating N-heterocyclic carbene complexes and enables the introduction of a variety of donor groups. The activation of the C4 position does not necessitate protection of the imidazolium C2 position, thereby leaving this site available for further...

Catalytic hydrogenation using abnormal N-heterocyclic carbene palladium complexes: catalytic scope and mechanistic insights

Heckenroth, Marion ; Khlebnikov, Vsevolod ; Neels, Antonia ; Schurtenberger, Peter ; Albrecht, Martin

In: ChemCatChem, 2011, vol. 3, no. 1, p. 167-173

Palladium complexes containing abnormally bound C4-bound dicarbene ligands have been exploited for catalytic alkene hydrogenation. Comparison to normally C2-bound homologues indicates that the carbene bonding mode critically influences the catalytic activity. Good catalytic performance in the hydrogenation of cis-disubstituted olefins and non-isomerizable terminal olefins under mild...

Abnormal carbenes as ligands in transition metal chemistry: curiosities with exciting perspectives

Albrecht, Martin

In: Chimia, 2009, vol. 63, no. 3, p. 105-110

This review compiles the advances achieved in our laboratories using abnormal and less heteroatom-stabilized carbenes as ligands for transition metal chemistry. Fundamental studies allowed the evaluation of the impact of this new class of ligands both electronically and sterically. Based on these results, initial catalytic applications have been devised in the area of H-H and C-H bond activation,...

Catalytically active palladium pyridylidene complexes : pyridinium ionic liquids as N-heterocyclic carbene precursors

Albrecht, Martin ; Stoeckli-Evans, Helen

In: Chemical Communications, 2005, no. 37, p. 4705-4707

Pyridinium salts similar to those used as ionic liquid solvents readily undergo palladation in the presence of a base, thus giving palladium-pyridylidene N-heterocyclic carbene complexes that are active catalysts for Suzuki-type cross-coupling reactions.

Absolute configuration determination of the dihydroxyethyl moiety of "hordeum vulgare" chlorophyll catabolites : Enantiomeric excess determination of α-amino acides by 19F NMR spectroscopy with a new fluorinated organometallic chiral derivatizing agent

Levrat, Fabrice ; Engel, Norbert (Dir.) ; Schneider, Manfred (Codir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2003 ; no 1405.

During senescence, chlorophyll of higher plants is degraded into linear tetrapyrrolic catabolites. Their in vitro oxidation with chromic acid furnishes the constituting pyrrolic moieties as maleimides fragments. The substitution patterns of the isolated maleimides are related to the catabolites structures. All maleimides bear the characteristic methyl group of the former chlorophyll as well as a...
