Specifically, substituted azulenes have been synthesized via a ring expansion-annulation strategy based on P-halo diazo ketones. The method employs the use of readily available benzenoid starting materials and achieves the synthesis of azulenes substituted on both the five- and seven-membered rings regioselectively. The synthetic utility of the ring expansion annulation products, in particular azulenyl halides and triflates, has been demonstrated by their successful application in transition metal-mediated carbon-carbon bond forming reactions. These reactions have been used to further functionalize the five- and seven-membered rings and also in the synthesis of oligoazulenes and azulenylamino acid derivatives. In addition, polycyclic nitrogen heterocycles have been synthesized via a tandem ring forming strategy. The strategy employs a novel benzannulation reaction of substituted cyclobutenones with ynamides, which are synthesized via the strategy for the N- alkynylation of amides strategy developed in the Danheiser laboratory. The products of these benzannulation reactions, highly-substituted anilines, then participate in ring closing metathesis reactions to form various nitrogen heterocycles. In particular dihydroquinolines, hydrobenzoazepines, and hydrobenzoazocines were synthesized via this tandem ynamide benzannulation ring closing metathesis strategy. Thesis Supervisor: Rick L.

  • The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers Via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction
    The Synthesis of Molecules Containing Quaternary Stereogenic Centers via the Intramolecular Asymmetric Heck Reaction Reported by Eric P. Gillis April 19, 2007 INTRODUCTION The enantioselective synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters continues to be a challenging endeavor and is a field of intense interest and development.1,,,,2 3 4 5 From the perspective of methods development, the asymmetric synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters poses a distinct challenge due to the sterically congested environment in which C-C bonds must be formed and stereochemical information must be transferred. Existing asymmetric methods have been applied successfully in desymmetrization processes that transform prochiral quaternary centers into stereodefined quaternary centers. However, for processes in which a quaternary stereocenter is created directly via a C-C bond forming reaction, only a few asymmetric reactions have been fruitful. The diversity in the array of methods that exist for the synthesis of compounds containing quaternary stereocenters is necessitated in part because of the number of distinct quaternary stereocenter architectures that are possible (Scheme 1). The construction of acyclic quaternary stereocenters is particularly challenging due to the number of degrees of freedom associated with these structures. However, promising results for the construction of these stereocenters via allylation,6 allylic alklyation,7 and Michael addition8 have been reported recently. For the synthesis of cyclic quaternary stereocenters a number of methods have been employed successfully including the intramolecular Heck reaction,9 alkylation,10 arylation,11 and Michael addition12. Fused bicyclic quaternary stereocenters are generally accessed via the desymmetrization of a prochiral quaternary center. In this regard, theoretically any SCHEME 1.

  • Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused Thienoacenes
    Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused Thienoacenes Hayden Thompson Black A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry Chapel Hill 2012 Approved By: Dr. Valerie Sheares Ashby Dr. James Cahoon Dr. Carrie Donley Dr. Wei You Dr. Malcolm Forbes ABSTRACT HAYDEN THOMPSON BLACK: Expanding the Scope of Thiophene Based Semiconductors: Perfluoroalkylated Materials and Fused thienoacenes (Under the direction of Valerie Sheares Ashby) Thiophene based semiconductors with new molecular and macromolecular structures were explored for applications in field effect transistors. Perfluoroalkylation was studied both as a means for controlling the self-assembly properties of polythiophenes, as well as modifying the molecular orbital energies of a series of oligothiophenes. End-perfluoroalkylation of poly(3-hexylthiophene) resulted in interesting self-assembly of the polymer into a bilayer vesicle. Similar fluorophilic assembly may be useful for controlling blend morphologies in heterojunction based devices. On the other hand, perfluoroalkylation of small molecule thiophene semiconductors leads to low lying LUMO levels, and can be used to promote electron injection for n-type transistor devices. This strategy was employed in combination with a π-electron deficient benzothiadiazole to afford a new n-type semiconductor with an exceptionally low LUMO. Monoperfluoroalkylated oligothiophenes were also synthesized and studied in field effect transistors for the first time. In addition, two new fused thienoacene compounds were synthesized and their crystal structures were analyzed. The fused compounds showed exceptional π-π stacking and assembled into well defined one-dimensional microcrystals from the vapor phase.
