April 27-30, 2005 Program and Abstracts Separations Program Heavy Element Chemistry Program Contractors’ Meeting Doubletree Hotel Rockville, Maryland April 27-30, 2005 Chemical Sciences, Geosciences, and Biosciences Division Office of Basic Energy Sciences Office of Science U.S. Department of Energy Cover graphics: Rigid and flexible calixarene-based ligands for selective metal ion separations (see abstract by BARTSCH et al.) Molecular structure of Pu(IV)-hyrdroxypyridonatye complex, a model for actinide decorporation agents (see abstract by GORDEN et al.) This document describes activities performed under contract number DE-AC05-00OR22750 between the U.S. Department of Energy and Oak Ridge Associated Universities. FOREWORD This abstract booklet provides a record of the sixth U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) contractors’ meeting in separations sciences and the third in heavy element chemistry. The Chemical Sciences, Geosciences and Biosciences Division of the Office of Basic Energy Sciences and its predecessors have sponsored research in heavy element chemistry and separations sciences for some sixty years. Although these are distinct disciplines, they have much in common for many reasons, in particular because novel separations research is needed to produce pure heavy-element samples and because heavy element chemistry provides the basis for many separations processes. In addition, separation processes are major industrial sources of energy consumption and waste generation. This is the second joint meeting of these programs. The objective of this meeting is to provide a fruitful environment in which researchers with common interests will present and exchange information about their activities, will build collaborations among research groups with mutually reinforcing strengths, will identify needs of the research community, and will focus on opportunities for future research directions. The agenda has keynote talks, oral presentations, and posters, organized so that papers in related disciplines – such as ligand design, theory and bonding, and interfacial science – are loosely clustered together. With ample time for discussion and interactions, we emphasize that this is an informal meeting for exchange of information and building of collaborations; it is not a review of researchers’ achievements or a forum to choose future directions. We are pleased to have the privilege of organizing this joint meeting and of serving as the managers of our respective research programs. In carrying out these tasks, we learn from the achievements and share the excitement of the research of the many sponsored scientists and students whose names appear on the papers in the following pages. We also hope that this meeting will enhance your research efforts and will nurture future collaborations and initiatives. We thank all of the researchers whose dedication and innovation have advanced our research and made this meeting possible and, we hope, productive. We hope that all of you will build on your successes and that we will assemble in a very few years for our next joint meeting. We thank Diane Marceau of the Chemical Sciences, Geosciences and Biosciences Division, and Sophia Kitts and Kellye Sliger of the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education for the technical and logistical features of this meeting.

    University of Nevada, Reno Matrix Isolation of Aryl(trifluoromethyl)carbenes, Heteroaryl(trifluoromethyl)carbenes and Phenylbis(trifluoromethyl)carbenes A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry by Pei Wang Dr. Robert S. Sheridan/Dissertation Advisor August, 2015 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by PEI WANG Entitled Matrix Isolation Of Aryl(Trifluoromethyl)Carbenes, Heteroaryl(Trifluoromethyl)Carbenes And Phenylbis(Trifluoromethyl)Carbenes be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Robert S. Sheridan, Advisor Dr. Kent M Ervin, Committee Member Dr. Chris Jeffrey, Committee Member Dr. Paula J Noble, Committee Member Dr. W. Patrick Arnott, Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School August, 2015 i Abstract We have isolated and studied 2-naphthyl(trifluoromethyl)carbene, 1- naphthyl(trifluoromethyl)carbene, 4-pyridyl (trifluoromethyl)carbene, 2-pyridyl (trifluoromethyl)carbene, 3-pyridyl (trifluoromethyl)carbene, 3-bromo-5-pyridyl (trifluoromethyl)carbene, meta-phenylbis(trifluoromethyl)carbene and para- phenylbis(trifluoromethyl)carbene in low temperature matrices for the first time. The naphthyl(trifluoromethyl)carbenes are photostable and have triplet ground states in matrices as most of the other studied ary(trifluoromethyl)carbenes. The 1- and 2- naphthyl(trifluoromethyl)diazirines, the precursors of 1- and 2- naphthyl(trifluoromethyl)carbenes, have dissimilar geometric structures leading to different UV/Vis absorptions. In the studied pyridyl(trifluoromethyl)carbenes, 4- pyridyl(trifluoromethyl)carbene was the most stable one in matrice: no photoproduct from 4- pyridyl(trifluoromethyl)carbene was observed. However, we obtained a small amount of photoproducts of 2 - pyridyl(trifluoromethyl)carbene, even though the result was not repeatable.

These observations have generated interest in harnessing H2S as a potential therapeutic agent to treat disease states and chronic conditions associated with H2S-based signaling. A mechanistic analysis of these physiological processes reveals the prevalence of H2S and other reactive sulfur species including sulfane sulfur and persulfides. To better understand the biological properties of these reactive sulfur species, chemical tools which provide methods of generating these fleeting species under controlled reaction conditions are needed.

  • Aspects of Heterocyclisation Reactions Mediated by Nucleophilic Interaction of Aromatic Nitro Groups with Ortho Heterocumulene Side Chains
    Issue in Honor of Dr. Douglas Lloyd ARKIVOC 2002 (iii) 80-89 Aspects of heterocyclisation reactions mediated by nucleophilic interaction of aromatic nitro groups with ortho heterocumulene side chains Kevin J. Duffy,† a George Tennant,* a Christopher J. Wallis,b and George W. Weaver ‡ a a Department of Chemistry, University of Edinburgh, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3JJ, UK b GlaxoSmithKline Medicines Research Centre, Gunnels Wood Road, Stevenage, SG1 2NY, UK E-mail: [email protected] Dedicated to Douglas Lloyd on the occasion of his 80th birthday Abstract Evidence is presented for the involvement of ketene intermediates in the thermal transformations of ethyl 4-nitro-1H-imidazol-5-ylethanoates into 4H-imidazo[4,5-c]isoxazole derivatives. Direct heterocyclisation of a 1-(4-nitro-1H-imidazol-5-yl)-3-phenylcarbodiimide intermediate is proposed to account for the reaction of a triphenyl N-(4-nitro-1H-imidazol-5-yl)phosphinimine with phenyl isocyanate exemplifying a new, flexible, and potentially general route to 2-aryl- 2H,4H-imidazo[4,5-d][1,2,3]triazoles. Keywords: Heterocyclisation, thermal transformations, ketene, ethyl 4-nitro-1H-imidazol-5- ylethanoates, 4H-imidazo[4,5-c]isoxazoles Introduction Direct interaction of the nitro substituent with electron-rich and electron-poor side-chains in ortho-substituted nitroaromatic and nitroheteroaromatic compounds is a well documented1-3 and fruitful source of novel heterocyclisation reactions. However, among such processes, heterocyclisations initiated by the nucleophilic interaction of aromatic/heteroaromatic nitro groups with ortho heterocumulene substituents are relatively rare. Seminal examples include (Scheme 1), the thermolysis4 of 2-nitrophenyl isocyanate 1 to benzofurazan 2, and the deep-seated thermal conversion5 of 1-(2-nitrophenyl)-3-phenylcarbodiimide 3 into 2-phenyl-2H- benzo-1,2,3-triazole 4.

Whited and Robert H. Grubbs* Arnold and Mabel Beckman Laboratories of Chemical Synthesis, DiVision of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125 ReceiVed October 9, 2008 A carbene complex supported by the (PNP)Ir framework is shown to facilitate sulfur-atom transfer from CS2 and PhNCS by an unusual multiple-bond metathesis pathway, and kinetically trapped intermediates are provided to support the proposed metal-initiated mechanism for heterocumulene activation. Experimental and theoretical studies on a series of (PNP)Ir-L complexes suggest that a high- lying, nucleophilic Ir(dz2) orbital mediates this unique reactivity. The combination of evidence indicates that square-planar Ir(I) carbenes of this type are best formulated as nucleophilic-at-metal carbenes, exhibiting reactivity initiated by a nucleophilic metal center rather than a nucleophilic or electrophilic carbene and providing products that are complementary to those typically observed for high-valent alkylidenes.
