Future Work ............................................................................ 126 ii Abstract The University of Manchester School of Chemistry Sinead Balgobin Doctor of Philosophy 2015 Rollover in the synthesis of polycyclic indoles, and a one-pot Zipper-Click reaction This thesis contains two chapters, the first concerning the use of C–H activation in the synthesis of polyaromatic indoles, and the second concerning an investigation into the acetylene zipper reaction. C–H activation provides a convenient, atom efficient route for the construction of C–C bonds, without the prerequisite for stoichiometric organometallic precursors or pre-functionalisation of the substrates. In this research the use of C–H activation for the insertion of an alkyne into an N-(hetero)arylated indole system has been investigated; the transformation was achieved using Rh catalysis in moderate to good yields. The concept of rollover has also been discussed. This is where, after a metallation step, the molecule undergoes a bond rotation allowing further reaction at a different part of the molecule. The acetylene zipper reaction is a powerful contrathermodynamic reaction which allows the migration of an internal alkyne to the terminal position. The alkyne moiety is a useful handle for many reactions, not least the robust CuI-catalysed azide alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC, also known as a click reaction), which can be used to synthesis useful triazole products. In this research a one-pot zipper-click reaction has been investigated to provide 1,4-disubstituted-1,2,3-triazoles. iii Declaration No portion of the work referred to in the thesis has been submitted in support of an application for another degree or qualification of this or any other university or other institute of learning. iv Copyright Statement i.

Minto, Director ________________________________ John R. Grunwell, Reader ________________________________ John F. Sebastian, Reader ________________________________ Ann E. Hagerman, Reader ________________________________ Richard E. Lee, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT INVESTIGATING THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF POLYACETYLENES: SYNTHESIS OF DEUTERATED LINOLEIC ACIDS & MECHANISM STUDIES OF DMDS ADDITION TO 1,4-ENYNES By Lizhi Zhu A wide range of polyacetylenic natural products possess antimicrobial, antitumor, and insecticidal properties. The biosyntheses of these natural products are widely distributed among fungi, algae, marine sponges, and higher plants. As details of the biosyntheses of these intriguing compounds remains scarce, it remains important to develop molecular probes and analytical methods to study polyacetylene secondary metabolism. An effective pathway to prepare selectively deuterium-labeled linoleic acids was developed. By this Pd-catalyzed method, deuterium can be easily introduced into the vinyl position providing deuterolinoleates with very high isotopic purity. This method also provides a general route for the construction of 1,4-diene derivatives with different chain lengths and 1,4-diene locations. Linoleic acid derivatives (12-d, 13-d and 16,16,17,17,18,18,18-d7) were synthesized according to this method. A stereoselective synthesis of methyl (14Z)- and (14E)-dehydrocrepenynate was achieved in five to six steps that employed Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to construct the double bonds between C14 and C15. Compared with earlier methods, the improved syntheses are more convenient (no spinning band distillations or GLC separation of diastereomers were necessary) and higher Z/E ratios were obtained.

Received 3 January, 2019; Accepted 19 April, 2019 Leaf, fruit, wood, and gum of fifty-five plants collected in Sudan were evaluated by Dish pack method for their allelopathic activity through volatile chemicals using lettuce (Lactuca sativa) as a receptor plant. Several potential plants with high allelopathic activity, such as Terminalia brownie, Euphorbia hirta, Diospyros mespiliformis, Corchorus olitorius, Adansonia digitata, Hibiscus sabdariffa, were determined. Baobab (A. digitata) leaves demonstrated relatively higher inhibition (23.9 and 21.5% of hypocotyl and radicle, respectively) than most of the screened plant species. Identification of the volatile compounds using headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed 1-decyne as the main volatile compound naturally released from dried baobab leaves. EC50 (50% growth inhibition) of radicle and hypocotyl growth of lettuce seedlings by authentic 1-decyne was determined in the headspace air using by GC-MS with Cotton Swab method at the concentration of 0.5 ng/ml.

Received: 20 July 2020; Accepted: 15 September 2020; Published: 23 September 2020 Abstract: This paper addresses a review of platinum-based hydrosilylation catalysts. The main field of application of these catalysts is the curing of silicone polymers. Since the 1960s, this area has developed rapidly in connection with the emergence of new polymer compositions and new areas of application. Here we describe general mechanisms of the catalyst activity and the structural effects of the ligands on activity and stability of the catalysts together with the methods for their synthesis. Keywords: silicone polymers; hydrosilylation; organometallic catalysts; platinum complexes 1. Introduction The hydrosilylation reaction (also referred to as hydrosilation) is widely used in the organosilicon industry. This reaction represents the addition of silicon-hydrogen bonds (Si–H) via an unsaturated carbon–carbon double bond (C=C), carbon–oxygen, and carbon–nitrogen double bonds.

  • Alkenes and Alkynes and Rad on React
    0 ALKENES AND ALKYNES AND RAD ON REACT arbon-carbon double and triple bonds undergo a wide variety of addition reactions in which one of the multiple bonds is broken and two new bonds to carbon are formed: A B \ / I I C=C + A-B ---+ -C-C- / \ I I The importance of such reactions to synthetic organic chemistry is para- mount. It is our intention in this and the following chapter to show the great diversity, utility, and specificity of addition reactions of alkenes and alkynes. We will begin with a brief discussion of the physical and spectroscopic properties of alkenes and alkynes. But the major emphasis in the chapter is on two main types of reactions, ionic addition and radical-chain addition. For ionic additions we will make extensive use of the classification of reagents as electrophiles and nucleophiles, as described in Chapter 8. 10-1 Physical and Spectroscopic Properties of Alkenes and Alkynes 351 10-1 PHYSICAL AND SPECTROSCOPIC PROPERTIES OF ALKENES AND ALKYNES 10-1A Physical Properties In general, the physical properties of alkenes are similar to those of alkanes. The data of Table 10-1 allow comparison of the boiling points, melting points, and densities of several alkenes with the corresponding alkanes that have the same carbon skeleton. Like the continuous-chain alkanes, the 1-alkenes form a homologous series of compounds that show regular changes in physical properties with increasing chain length. The boiling points, melting points, and densities of the simple alkynes (also included in Table 10-1) are somewhat higher than those of the corre- sponding alkanes or alkenes, and these properties also show regular changes as the chain length is increased.
