15Th European Workshop on Phosphorus Chemistry EWPC 15/2018 15th European Workshop on Phosphorus Chemistry EWPC 15/2018 March 14-16, 2018 Uppsala University, Uppsala, SWEDEN European Workshop on Phosphorus Chemistry - EWPC 15/2018 March 14-16 Dear Participants of the EWPC-15, The long tradition of workshops previously held in Kaiserslautern (2004), Bonn (2005), Leipzig (2006), Zandvoort (2007), Regensburg (2008), Florence (2009), Budapest (2010), Münster (2011), Rennes (2012), Regensburg (2013), Sofia (2014), Kassel (2015), Berlin (2016), and Cluj-Napoca (2017) will be continued with the 15th European Workshop in Phosphorus Chemistry in Uppsala, Sweden. This traditional workshop series has contributed to the strong position of the European research community and allowed for a fruitful exchange of ideas, opinions and excellent discussions. The topics of this conference cover organic, inorganic, polymer, and material chemistry as well as biological research. The program comprises 30 oral presentations from experienced researchers and PhD students, and a round table discussion on the future of phosphorous chemistry. The first evening will be concluded by a “Rektorsmottagning”, a Principals reception, at the University Main Building, which was inaugurated in 1887. The second day full of scientific program ends with a convivial conference dinner at the Restaurant Sven Dufva, located at the Science Park Uppsala. The last day of science will end with the traditional awards for the Best Posters, Best Chair and Best Presentations. Our aim is to create a vivid atmosphere that fuels discussions in this multidisciplinary field of research. We are aiming to re-inforce the (European) network of researchers by this annual conference. A specific goal of this conference series is, to provide young researchers a platform to present and discuss their science with peers and experienced researchers, alike. We would also like to thank the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) and our sponsors for their generous support.

Let us now turn to the experimental results to see if these predictions are borne out in fact. It has long been known that E2H reactions normally give preferentially anti elimination. For example, reaction of meso-stilbene dibromide with potassium ethoxide gives cis-bromostilbene (Reaction 7.39), whereas reaction of the D,L-dibromide gives the trans product (Reaction 7.40).lo2 A multitude of other examples exist-see, for example, note 64 (p. 355) and note 82 (p. 362). E2H reactions do, however, give syn elimination when: (1) an H-X di- hedral angle of 0" is achievable but one of 180" is not or, put another way, H and X can become syn-periplanar but not trans-periplanar ; (2) a syn hydrogen is much more reactive than the anti ones; (3) syn elimination is favored for steric reasons; and (4) an anionic base that remains coordinated with its cation, that, in turn, is coordinated with the leaving group, is used as catalyst. The very great importance of category 4 has only begun to be fully realized in the early 1970s. lo2 P. Pfeiffer, 2. Physik. Chem.

  • Nomenclature Cyclic Aliphatic Hydrocarbons Are Named By
    An alicyclic compound is an organic compound that is both aliphatic and cyclic. They contain one or more all-carbon rings which may be either saturated or unsaturated, but do not have aromatic character. Alicyclic compounds may have one or more aliphatic side chains attached. The simplest alicyclic compounds are the 1. monocyclic cycloalkanes: cyclopropane, cyclobutane, cyclopentane, cyclohexane, cyclohepta ne, cyclooctane, and so on. 2. Bicyclic alkanes include bicycloundecane, decalin, and housane. 3. Polycyclic alkanes include cubane, basketane, and tetrahedrane. Spiro compounds have two or more rings that are connected through only one carbon atom. Nomenclature Cyclic aliphatic hydrocarbons are named by prefixing cyclo- to the name of the corresponding open-chain hydrocarbon having the same number of carbons as the ring. For example: Cyclopropane Cyclobutane Cyclopentane Cyclopentene Substituents on the ring- alkyl, groups, halogens- are named and their positions indicated by numbers. Chlorocyclopropane 1,1- Dimethylyclopentane 1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane CH3 CH3 Cl H3C CH3 In simple cycloalkenes and cycloalkynes the double and triply bonded carbons are considered to occupy positions 1 and 2. For example: 3-Ethylcyclopentene 1,3-Cyclohexadiene H3C For convenience, aliphatic rings are often represented by simple geometric figures: a triangle for cyclopropane, a square for cyclobutane, a pentagon for cyclopentane, a hexagon for cyclohexane and so on. It is understood that two hydrogens are located at each corner of the figure unless some other group is indicated. For example H3C cyclopentane 3-Ethylcyclopentene 1,3-Cyclopentadiene CH3 CH3 Cl CH Cyclohexane 3 1,3-Dimethylcyclohexane 2- Chloro-1-methylcyclohexane As usual alcohols are given the ending –ol, which takes priority over –ene and appears last in the name.

Marineau Thesis Advisor: Professor Marc. L. Snapper Abstract Cyclobutadiene cycloadditions provide rapid access to rigid polycyclic systems with high strain energy and unusual molecular geometries. Further functionalization of these systems allows entry into unexplored chemical space. A tricarbonylcyclobutadiene iron complex on solid support enables exploration of these cycloadditions in a parallel format amenable to diversity oriented synthesis. Modeling of the cycloaddition transition states with density functional calculations provides a theoretical basis for analysis of the regioselectivity observed in generation of these substituted bicyclo[2.2.0]hexene derivatives. The high strain energy accessible in cyclobutadiene cycloadducts and their derivatives renders them useful synthons for access to medium-ring natural products through ring expansion. Torilin, a guaiane sesquiterpene isolated from extracts of the fruits of Torilis japonica, exhibits a range of biological activities including testosterone 5 -reductase inhibition, hKv1.5 channel blocking, hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects.

  • The Chemistry of Carbene-Stabilized
    THE CHEMISTRY OF CARBENE-STABILIZED MAIN GROUP DIATOMIC ALLOTROPES by MARIHAM ABRAHAM (Under the Direction of Gregory H. Robinson) ABSTRACT The syntheses and molecular structures of carbene-stabilized arsenic derivatives of 1 1 i 1 1 AsCl3 (L :AsCl3 (1); L : = :C{N(2,6- Pr2C6H3)CH}2), and As2 (L :As–As:L (2)), are presented herein. The potassium graphite reduction of 1 afforded the carbene-stabilized diarsenic complex, 2. Notably, compound 2 is the first Lewis base stabilized diatomic molecule of the Group 13–15 elements, in the formal oxidation state of zero, in the fourth period or lower of the Periodic Table. Compound 2 contains one As–As σ-bond and two lone pairs of electrons on each arsenic atom. In an effort to study the chemistry of the electron-rich compound 2, it was combined with an electron-deficient Lewis acid, GaCl3. The addition of two equivalents of GaCl3 to 2 resulted in one-electron oxidation of 2 to 1 1 •+ – •+ – give [L :As As:L ] [GaCl4] (6 [GaCl4] ). Conversely, the addition of four equivalents of GaCl3 to 2 resulted in two- electron oxidation of 2 to give 1 1 2+ – 2+ – •+ [L :As=As:L ] [GaCl4 ]2 (6 [GaCl4 ]2). Strikingly, 6 represents the first arsenic radical to be structurally characterized in the solid state. The research project also explored the reactivity of carbene-stabilized disilicon, (L1:Si=Si:L1 (7)), with borane. The reaction of 7 with BH3·THF afforded two unique compounds: one containing a parent silylene (:SiH2) unit (8), and another containing a three-membered silylene ring (9).

Electrochemical and theoretical investigations of some oligosilanes revealed that electrooxidation occurs by formation of a short-lived cation radical. This species undergoes structural relaxation to form a pair of conformers, with endo and exo relationships with respect to the Si−N interaction. Reaction of a 1,4-disilatranyl-1,4-disilanide with 1,2- dichlorotetramethyldisilane gave a mixture of cis and trans diastereomers of a cyclohexasilane with the trans isomer showing a diminished Si−N distance. ■ INTRODUCTION along the Si−N dative bond reflects the nature of Si−N − Among hypercoordinated silicon compounds silatranes (Figure bonding. In fact the Si N bonding neither is covalent nor is − 8 1) occupy a prominent position.1 4 The suffix “atrane” was based on intermolecular charge transfer. What happens with this unusual bond upon electron withdrawal, for instance during electrooxidation, is of a great interest (for classical bonds see ref 9) but is not known so far.

Mallouk Professor of Chemistry, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Physics, and Engineering Science and Mechanics Head of the Department of Chemistry *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Carbon nanomaterials such as fullerenes, nanotubes, and graphene have been widely studied in recent decades. Benefitting from their unique bonding, they possess extraordinary physical and chemical properties. Compared with sp2 hybridized carbon allotropes, there are significantly fewer new carbon materials dominated by sp3 bonding that have been developed. Adamantane and graphane represent the smallest unit and thinnest sheet of diamond possible, respectively. One-dimensional, mostly sp3 hybridized nanocarbon, did not yet exist in 2013, when the first synthesis of carbon nanothreads finally filled up the last remaining entry in the matrix of dimensionality and hybridization of carbon nanomaterials that year. Carbon nanothread was first made by compressing benzene to ~25 GPa in a large-volume anvil cell and slowly decompressing back to ambient pressure by an alumnus of the Badding group.

Kuznetsovaa Received March 27, 2014 DOI: 10.1134/S0012500814090031 Tertiary amine Noxides of general formula A particular interest in tertiary amine Noxides has + increased in recent years. Triethanolamine Noxide, O ⎯ NR3 (previously O=NR3 or O → NR3) continue to attract interest of synthetic, theoretical, and applied which was considered to have structure chemists. They are already used in cosmetics, as bio O=N(CH2CH2OH)3 [3], was ascribed to them by medical agents, and as oxidants in a number of organic analogy, but its molecular structure was not estab reactions (catalytic epoxidation and dihydroxylation lished. Therefore, we determined the structure by X of alkenes, catalytic oxidation of alcohols, etc.) [1, 2]. ray diffraction, presuming that the oxide oxygen atom The most general method of their synthesis is the oxi in this molecule is bound to the nitrogen atom and sur dation of tertiary amines with hydrogen peroxide, per rounded by three CH CH OH groups like hydrogen oxy acids, dioxiranes, and oxaazapyridines [1]. 2 2 atom in protatranes [4]. The obtained data proved to Triethanolamine Noxide (TEA) formulated as be unexpected and, nonetheless, allowed us to name + O –N (CH2CH2OH)3 and obtained by the oxidation TEA Noxide as oxatrane (OA) by analogy with pro of triethanolamine with hydrogen peroxide [3] is also tatranes, Fig.
