Heterocyclic [9]Helicenes Exhibiting Bright Circularly Polarized Luminescence. Chemistry 2023; 29:e202301815.

Abstract
We describe a concise synthetic strategy for the preparation of heterocyclic [9]helicenes and a simple preparative-scale protocol for the optical resolution of the resulting M- and P-enantiomers. The helicenes were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction along with a range of spectroscopic and computational techniques. A fluorescence quantum yield of up to 65 % was observed, and the chiroptical properties of both M- and P-helicenes revealed large dissymmetry factors. The circularly polarized luminescence brightness reaches up to 17 M-1 cm-1 , as measured experimentally and verified computationally, which makes this the highest circularly polarized luminescence brightness among heterocyclic helicenes. We describe how chiroptical properties (both circular dichroism and circularly polarized luminescence) can be described and predicted using quantum chemical calculations. The synthetic approach also reveals by-products that originate from internal oxidation reactions, presumably mediated by the close proximity of the π-surfaces in the helicene structure.

A Combined Experimental and Theoretical Study of ESR Hyperfine Coupling Constants for N,N,N',N'-Tetrasubstituted p-Phenylenediamine Radical Cations. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043447. [PMID: 36834859 PMCID: PMC9967363 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
A test set of N,N,N',N'-tetrasubstituted p-phenylenediamines are experimentally explored using ESR (electron spin resonance) spectroscopy and analysed from a computational standpoint thereafter. This computational study aims to further aid structural characterisation by comparing experimental ESR hyperfine coupling constants (hfccs) with computed values calculated using ESR-optimised "J-style" basis sets (6-31G(d,p)-J, 6-31G(d,p)-J, 6-311++G(d,p)-J, pcJ-1, pcJ-2 and cc-pVTZ-J) and hybrid-DFT functionals (B3LYP, PBE0, TPSSh, ωB97XD) as well as MP2. PBE0/6-31g(d,p)-J with a polarised continuum solvation model (PCM) correlated best with the experiment, giving an R2 value of 0.8926. A total of 98% of couplings were deemed satisfactory, with five couplings observed as outlier results, thus degrading correlation values significantly. A higher-level electronic structure method, namely MP2, was sought to improve outlier couplings, but only a minority of couples showed improvement, whilst the remaining majority of couplings were negatively degraded.

Abstract
Functionalization of new sites on the triangulenium structure has been achieved by early-stage chlorination with N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS), giving rise to two new triangulenium dyes (1 and 3). By introducing the chlorine functionalities in the acridinium precursor, positions complementary to those previously obtained by electrophilic aromatic substitution on the final dyes are accessed. The chlorination is selective, giving only one regioisomer for both mono- and dichlorination products. For the monochlorinated acridinium compound, a highly selective ring-closing reaction was discovered, generating a single regioisomer of the cationic [4]helicene product. Further investigations into the mechanism of the [4]helicene formation lead to the first isolation of the previously proposed intermediate of the two-step SNAr reaction, key to all aza-bridged triangulenium and helicenium systems. Late-stage functionalization of DAOTA+ with NCS gave rise to a different dichlorinated compound (2). The fully ring closed chlorinated triangulenium dyes 1, 2, and 3 show a redshift in absorption and emission, while maintaining relatively high fluorescence quantum yields of 36%, 26%, and 41% and long fluorescence lifetimes of 15, 12.5, and 16 ns, respectively. Cyclic voltammetry shows that chlorination of the triangulenium dyes significantly lowers reduction potentials and thus allows for efficient tuning of redox and photoredox properties.

Abstract
The formal potentials for the reversible one-electron oxidation of N,N,N',N' tetrasubstituted p-phenylenediamines in acetonitrile have been applied as a test set for benchmarking computational methods for a series of compounds with only small structural differences. The aim of the study is to propose a simple method for calculating the standard oxidation potentials, and therefore, the protocol is progressively developed by adding more terms in the energy expression. In addition, the effect of including implicit solvation models (IEFPCM, CPCM, and SMD), larger basis sets, and correlation methods are investigated. The oxidation potentials calculated using the G3MP2B3 approach with IEFPCM resulted in the best fit (R2 = 0.9624), but the slope of the correlation line, 0.74, is far from the optimal value, 1.00. B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) and TPSSh/6-311++G(2d,p) yielded only slightly less consistent data (R2 = 0.9388 and R2 = 0.9425), but with much better slopes, 1.00 and 0.94, respectively. We conclude that it is important to investigate the basis set size and treatment of electron correlation when calculating oxidation potentials for N,N,N',N' tetrasubstituted p-phenylenediamines.

The best density functional theory functional for the prediction of 1 H and 13 C chemical shifts of protonated alkylpyrroles. J Comput Chem 2021; 42:1248-1262.

Abstract
The prediction of 13 C chemical shifts can be challenging with density functional theory (DFT). In this study 39 different functionals and three different basis sets were tested on three neutral alkylpyrroles and their corresponding protonated species. The calculated shielding constants were compared to experimental data and results from previous calculations at the MP2. We find that the meta-hybrid functional TPSSh with either the Pople style basis set 6-311++G(2d,p) or the polarization consistent basis set pcSseg-1 gives the best results for the 13 C chemical shifts, whereas for the 1 H chemical shifts it is the TPSSh functional with either the 6-311++G(2d,p) or pcSseg-2 basis set. Including an explicit solvent molecule hydrogen bonded to NH in the alkylpyrroles improves the results slightly for the 13 C chemical shifts. On the other hand, for 1 H chemical shifts the opposite is true. Compared to calculations at the MP2 level none of the DFT functionals can compete with MP2 for the 13 C chemical shifts but for the 1 H chemical shifts the investigated DFT functionals are shown to give better agreement with experiment than MP2 calculations.

Abstract
The promotion of mixed-valence interactions between redox-active, π-conjugated scaffolds is of interest when developing new conducting or electrochromic materials as well as in the construction of redox-controlled supramolecular assemblies. In this work, dimeric structures of the redox-active indenofluorene-extended tetrathiafulvalene (IF-TTF) unit were synthesized in a stepwise protocol. The synthesis relied on the development of a new unsymmetrical IF-TTF building block by a combination of phosphite-mediated and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reactions for introduction of the dithiafulvene units. The redox properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry, where it was observed that a first one-electron oxidation, corresponding to a mixed-valence state, occurs at a significantly lower potential when the IF-TTF unit is incorporated into a dimer, compared to a monomer analogue. This result indicates that locking the redox-active IF-TTF units in close proximity promotes intramolecular mixed-valence interactions. A computational study was also conducted, supporting the involvement of intramolecular interactions.

Abstract
Turning on and off associations between molecules by a reversible change in their redox states is a convenient way of controlling self-assembly and hence for advancing supramolecular chemistry. Here we present systematic studies on a selection of extended tetrathiafulvalenes with thienoacene spacers. By cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry and in situ EPR/UV-Vis-NIR spectroelectrochemistry, in combination with computations, we have elucidated how the number and orientations of thiophene rings in the spacer between the two dithiafulvene rings influence both the donor strength and association properties. The radical cations and their associates were found to cover a remarkable large region of the UV-Vis-NIR spectrum, but the appearance of the absorption spectrum of the radical cations as well as of the unassociated dications also depended strongly on the exact molecular structure.

Abstract
The very limited class of fluorophores, with a long fluorescence lifetime (>10 ns) and fluorescence beyond 550 nm, has been expanded with two benzo-fused triangulenium derivatives and two cationic [5]-helicene salts. The syntheses of the benzo-bridged dioxa- and diazatriangulenium derivatives (BDOTA+ and BDATA+, respectively) required two different synthetic approaches, which reflect the structural and physiochemical impact on the reactivity of [5]-helicenium precursors. Spectroscopic investigations show that the introduction of the benzo bridge into the triangulenium chromophore significantly redshifts the absorption and emission while maintaining fluorescence lifetimes above 10 ns. The combination of a high quantum yield, long fluorescence lifetime, and emission above 600 nm is possible only if the structural aspects of the triangulenium framework are perfectly harmonized to secure a low rate of nonradiative deactivation. The new benzo bridge may be a general motif to obtain red-shifted derivatives of other dye classes.

Abstract
Prediction of chemical shifts in organic cations is known to be a challenge. In this article we meet this challenge for α-protonated alkylpyrroles, a class of compounds not yet studied in this context, and present a combined experimental and theoretical study of the 13 C and 1 H chemical shifts in three selected pyrroles. We have investigated the importance of the solvation model, basis set, and quantum chemical method with the goal of developing a simple computational protocol, which allows prediction of 13 C and 1 H chemical shifts with sufficient accuracy for identifying such compounds in mixtures. We find that density functional theory with the B3LYP functional is not sufficient for reproducing all 13 C chemical shifts, whereas already the simplest correlated wave function model, Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), leads to almost perfect agreement with the experimental data. Treatment of solvent effects generally improves the agreement with experiment to some extent and can in most cases be accomplished by a simple polarizable continuum model. The only exception is the NH proton, which requires inclusion of explicit solvent molecules in the calculation.

Abstract
Electrochemical processes drive many chemical and biochemical reactions. Theoretical methods to accurately predict redox potentials are therefore crucial for understanding these reactions and designing new chemical species with desired properties. We have investigated a theoretical methodology using electronic structure methods based on density functional theory and continuum solvation models. These methods have been validated with linear correlation plots comparing theoretical and experimental results for the redox properties of a series of azulene derivatives. The results showed excellent correlations despite only minor structural variations of the azulenes, which support this rather simple theoretical methodology for determining redox potentials of organic molecules. Furthermore, we have estimated the absolute redox potential of the ferrocene/ferrocenium redox couple to be 4.8 ± 0.1 V in dichloromethane, which is slightly lower than previous estimates.

Abstract
![]()
Development of molecules
that can switch between redox states with
paired and unpaired electrons is important for molecular electronics
and spintronics. In this work, a selection of redox-active indenofluorene-extended
tetrathiafulvalenes (IF-TTFs) with thioacetate end groups was prepared
from a readily obtainable dibromo-functionalized IF-TTF building block
using palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions, such as the Suzuki
reaction. The end groups served as electrode anchoring groups for
single-molecule conductance studies, and the molecules were subjected
to mechanically controlled break-junction measurements with gold contacts
and to low-bias charge transport measurements in gated three-terminal
electromigration junctions. The neutral molecules showed clear conductance
signatures, and somewhat surprisingly, we found that a meta–meta anchoring configuration gave a higher conductance than a para–meta configuration. We explain this behavior
by “through-space” coupling between the gold electrode
and the phenyl on which the anchoring group is attached. Upon charging
the molecule in a gated junction, we found reproducibly a Kondo effect
(zero-bias conductance) attributed to a net spin. Ready generation
of radical cations was supported by cyclic voltammetry measurements,
revealing stepwise formation of radical cation and dication species
in solution. The first oxidation event was accompanied by association
reactions as the appearance of the first oxidation peak was strongly
concentration dependent.

Abstract
A selection of cyclic and acyclic acetylenic scaffolds bearing two tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) units was prepared by different metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. The bridge separating the two TTF units was systematically changed from linearly conjugated ethyne, butadiyne and tetraethynylethene (trans-substituted) units to a cross-conjugated tetraethynylethene unit, placed in either acyclic or cyclic arrangements. The cyclic structures correspond to so-called radiaannulenes having both endo- and exocyclic double bonds. Interactions between two redox-active TTF units in these molecules were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, UV–vis–NIR and EPR absorption spectroscopical methods of the electrochemically generated oxidized species. The electron-accepting properties of the acetylenic cores were also investigated electrochemically.

Abstract
An antibiotic substance isolated from Pseudomonas fluorescens strain G308 was earlier assigned the structure of N-mercapto-4-formylcarbostyril, but computational predictions of the 1H and 13C NMR magnetic shielding tensors show this structure to be incompatible with the published spectroscopic data. The same is true for six quinoline derivatives related to N-mercapto-4-formylcarbostyril by permutation of the O and S atoms. In contrast, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)thiazole-4-carbaldehyde [aeruginaldehyde], isolated from Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5, together with the reduced derivative aeruginol, displays spectroscopic data identical with those of the alleged carbostyril derivative. In addition, the published 1H and 13C NMR data are in agreement with those calculated for aeruginaldehyde. We propose that aeruginaldehyde and aeruginol originate from the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase enzymes involved in the siderophores enantio-pyochelin (or pyochelin) biosynthetic pathways.

An antibiotic substance isolated from Pseudomonas fluorescens strain G308 was earlier assigned the structure of N-mercapto-4-formylcarbostyril, but computational predictions of the 1H and 13C NMR magnetic shielding tensors show this structure to be incompatible with the published spectroscopic data. The same is true for six quinoline derivatives related to N-mercapto-4-formylcarbostyril by permutation of the O and S atoms. In contrast, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)thiazole-4-carbaldehyde [aeruginaldehyde], isolated from Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5, together with the reduced derivative aeruginol, displays spectroscopic data identical with those of the alleged carbostyril derivative. In addition, the published 1H and 13C NMR data are in agreement with those calculated for aeruginaldehyde. We propose that aeruginaldehyde and aeruginol originate from the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase enzymes involved in the siderophores enantio-pyochelin (or pyochelin) biosynthetic pathways.

Abstract
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Friedel-Crafts acetylation is an important route to aromatic ketones, in research laboratories and in industry. The acetyl derivatives of 3,3'-dimethylbiphenyl (3,3'-dmbp) have applications in the field of liquid crystals and polymers and may be oxidized to the dicarboxylic acids and derivatives that are of interest in cancer treatment. FINDINGS The effect of solvent and temperature on the selectivity of monoacetylation of 3,3'-dmbp by the Perrier addition procedure was studied using stoichiometric amounts of reagents. 4-Ac-3,3'-dmbp was formed almost quantitatively in boiling 1,2-dichloroethane and this is almost twice the yield hitherto reported. Using instead a molar ratio of substrate:AcCl:AlCl3 equal to 1:4:4 or 1:6:6 in boiling 1,2-dichloroethane, acetylation afforded 4,4'- and 4,6'-diacetyl-3,3'-dmbp in a total yield close to 100%. The acetyl derivatives were subsequently converted to the carboxylic acids by hypochlorite oxidation. The relative stabilities of the isomeric products and the corresponding σ-complexes were studied by DFT calculations and the data indicated that mono- and diacetylation followed different mechanisms. CONCLUSIONS Friedel-Crafts acetylation of 3,3'-dmbp using the Perrier addition procedure in boiling 1,2-dichloroethane was found to be superior to other recipes. The discrimination against the 6-acetyl derivative during monoacetylation seems to reflect a mechanism including an AcCl:AlCl3 complex or larger agglomerates as the electrophile, whereas the less selective diacetylations of the deactivated 4-Ac-3,3'-dmbp are suggested to include the acetyl cation as the electrophile. The DFT data also showed that complexation of intermediates and products with AlCl3 does not seem to be important in determining the mechanism.

Abstract
The claim that N-mercapto-4-formylcarbostyril was isolated from Pseudomonas fluorescens strain G308 is questioned since N-thiols appear to be unstable compounds at ambient temperature.
