  • Reactivity and Functionalization of Naphthalene and Anthracene Complexes of {Tpw(NO)(Pme3)}
    Reactivity and Functionalization of Naphthalene and Anthracene Complexes of {TpW(NO)(PMe3)} Laura Jessica Strausberg Baltimore, Maryland B.A., Hollins University, 2008 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Virginia July, 2013 ii Abstract Chapter 1 introduces the organic chemistry of aromatic hydrocarbons, with attention paid to regiochemical outcomes of organic reactions. The binding of naphthalene and anthracene to metal complexes is discussed, along with organic transformations they undergo as a result of their complexation. The previous work on osmium and rhenium complexes of naphthalene from the Harman group is explored. Finally, some spectroscopic techniques for exploring the chemistry of {TpW(NO)(PMe3)} complexes of naphthalene and anthracene are introduced. Chapter 2 discusses the highly distorted allyl complexes formed from {TpW(NO)(PMe3)} and the exploration of their origin. Attempts at stereoselectively deprotonating these cationic complexes is also discussed. 2 Chapter 3 describes our study of TpW(NO)(PMe3)(3,4-η -naphthalene)’s ability to undergo a Diels-Alder reaction with N-methylmaleimide. A solvent study suggested that this reaction proceeds by a concerted mechanism. To probe the mechanism further, we synthesized a series of methylated and methoxylated naphthalene complexes and measured their rates of reaction with N-methylmaleimide compared to the parent complex. We found that 1- substitution on the naphthalene increased the rate of cycloaddition, even if the substituent was in the unbound ring, while 2-substitution slowed the reaction rate when in the bound ring. This information is consistent with a concerted mechanism, as a 2-substituted product would be less able to isomerize to form the active isomer for the cycloaddition to occur.

  • Construction of Novel Molecular Architectures from Anthracene Units and Acetylene Linkers*
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 84, No. 4, pp. 917–929, 2012. http://dx.doi.org/10.1351/PAC-CON-11-09-07 © 2012 IUPAC, Publication date (Web): 9 February 2012 Construction of novel molecular architectures from anthracene units and acetylene linkers* Shinji Toyota‡ Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Okayama University of Science, 1-1 Ridaicho, Kita-ku, Okayama 700-0005, Japan Abstract: To create novel π-conjugated compounds, we constructed various molecular archi- tectures from anthracene units and acetylene linkers. Several cyclic oligomers ranging from dimers to dodecamers were synthesized by macrocyclization of acyclic precursors with metal-catalyzed coupling reactions. The structures, dynamic behavior, and spectroscopic fea- tures were greatly influenced by the number of anthracene units and the combination of building units and linkers. Optically active and circular dichroism (CD)-active enantiomers of some chiral cyclic oligomers were resolved by chiral high-performance liquid chromato - graphy (HPLC). Conformational analysis of hexamers and higher oligomers was performed with the aid of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Acyclic oligomers underwent reversible folding–unfolding processes via photochemical and thermal reactions. These results suggest that transannular π–π interactions between anthracene units are important fac- tors in controlling the structural and spectroscopic properties and functions of π-conjugated compounds. The scope and perspectives of this molecular design are discussed on the basis of previous studies. Keywords: aromatic compounds; alkynes; π–π interactions; stereochemistry; structure. INTRODUCTION In the chemistry of aromatic compounds, oligomeric structures consisting of simple repeating units are fascinating motifs for the creation of new compounds. The merits of this molecular design are the acces- sibility to a large number of compounds from simple building units as well as the ease of tuning elec- tronic properties by structural modifications.

  • Dissolved Organic Matter-Mediated Photodegradation of Anthracene and Pyrene in Water Siyu Zhao, Shuang Xue*, Jinming Zhang, Zhaohong Zhang & Jijun Sun
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Dissolved organic matter-mediated photodegradation of anthracene and pyrene in water Siyu Zhao, Shuang Xue*, Jinming Zhang, Zhaohong Zhang & Jijun Sun Toxicity and transformation process of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is strongly depended on the interaction between PAHs and dissolved organic matters (DOM). In this study, a 125W high- pressure mercury lamp was used to simulate the sunlight experiment to explore the inhibition mechanism of four dissolved organic matters (SRFA, LHA, ESHA, UMRN) on the degradation of anthracene and pyrene in water environment. Results indicated that the photodegradation was the main degradation approach of PAHs, which accorded with the frst-order reaction kinetics equation. The extent of degradation of anthracene and pyrene was 36% and 24%, respectively. DOM infuence mechanism on PAHs varies depending upon its source. SRFA, LHA and ESHA inhibit the photolysis of anthracene, however, except for SRFA, the other three DOM inhibit the photolysis of pyrene. Fluorescence quenching mechanism is the main inhibiting mechanism, and the binding ability of DOM and PAHs is dominantly correlated with its inhibiting efect. FTIR spectroscopies and UV–Visible were used to analyze the main structural changes of DOM binding PAHs. Generally, the stretching vibration of N–H and C–O of polysaccharide carboxylic acid was the key to afect its binding with anthracene and C–O–C in aliphatic ring participated in the complexation of DOM and pyrene. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are typical persistent organic pollutants with two or more fused ben- zene rings that are widely distributed in multi-media, such as atmosphere, water, sediment, snow, and biota1–4.

    COMMUNICATION HACA’s Heritage: A Free Radical Pathway to Phenanthrene in Circumstellar Envelopes of Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars Tao Yang,[a] Ralf I. Kaiser,[a]* Tyler P. Troy,[b] Bo Xu,[b] Oleg Kostko,[b] Musahid Ahmed,[b]* Alexander M. Mebel,[c]* Marsel V. Zagidullin[d] and Valeriy N. Azyazov[d] Abstract: The Hydrogen-Abstraction/Acetylene-Addition (HACA) mechanism has been central for the last decades in attempting to rationalize the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as detected in carbonaceous meteorites such as in Murchison. Nevertheless, the basic reaction mechanisms leading to the formation of even the simplest tricyclic PAHs like anthracene and phenanthrene are still elusive. Here, by exploring the previously unknown chemistry of the ortho-biphenylyl radical with acetylene, we deliver compelling evidence on the efficient synthesis of phenanthrene in carbon-rich circumstellar environments. However, the lack of formation of the anthracene isomer implies that HACA alone cannot be responsible for the formation of PAHs in extreme environments. Considering the Figure 1. Structures of biphenyl, naphthalene, acenaphthylene, overall picture, alternative pathways such as vinylacetylene- anthracene, and phenanthrene. mediated reactions are required to play a crucial role in the synthesis of complex PAHs in circumstellar envelopes of dying systems.[17-20] Based on electronic structure calculations[19, 21-24] and carbon-rich stars. kinetic modeling,[16, 25-29] HACA has been suggested to involve a repetitive sequence of atomic

  • Liquid-Phase Oxidation of Anthracene in Acetic Acid with an Oxygen/Nitric Acid System
    J. Chem. Tech. Biotechnol. 1990, 49, 5544 Liquid-phase Oxidation of Anthracene in Acetic Acid with an Oxygen/Nitric Acid System C. K. Das & N. S. Das Central Fuel Research Institute, PO FRI, District Dhanbad, Bihar PIN 828 108, India (Received 18 September 1989; accepted 24 November 1989) ABSTRACT Oxidation of anthracene in acetic acid by the oxygenlnitric acid system has been studied and an attempt has been made to ascertain a practical limit of the amount of solvent keeping the commercial prospects in view. The effects of other reaction parameters such as flow rate, amount of nitric acid and water, residence time, etc., have been investigated. While opting for a solvent1 substrate ratio of 10, the optimum conversion of anthracene to anthraquinone fiee from nitro-compounds has been found to be 91 with purity of 98.7%, acceptable to dye-stuff industries. Key words: anthracene, anthraquinone, oxidation in liquid phase, oxygen, nitric acid. 1 INTRODUCTION Oxidation of anthracene in the liquid phase by nitric acid is a thermodynamically favourable reaction. Several attempts have been made earlier to develop the process, using this comparatively low-priced yet strongly oxidising agent to explore commercial viabilities.'" Oxidation with nitric acid alone is a stoichiometric reaction. Very dilute acid at lower temperature requires a long induction period, while with the use of strong nitric acid, the product purity may be affected, due to side reactions, such as nitration, which may also affect the overall economy of the process.'S2 However, nitric acid as co-oxidant with airloxygen has been found to be useful in oxidising anthra~ene.'.~.~The concentration of the acid requires proper adjustment to suppress the formation of undesired by-products and accordingly, an optimum limit has been suggested previously by the present authors.* In spite ofthe fact that the synthesis involves mild reaction conditions and simple techniques, thus 55 J.

DNA INTERACTIONS AND PHOTOCLEAVAGE BY ANTHRACENE, ACRIDINE, AND CARBOCYANINE-BASED CHROMOPHORES by CARLA TERRY MAPP Under the Direction of Dr. Kathryn B. Grant ABSTRACT The interaction of small molecules with DNA has been extensively studied and has produced a large catalogue of molecules that non-covalently bind to DNA though groove binding, intercalation, electrostatics, or a combination of these binding modes. Anthracene, acridine, and carbocyanine-based chromophores have been examined for their DNA binding properties and photo-reactivities. Their planar aromatic structures make them ideal chromophores that can be used to probe DNA structural interactions and binding patterns. We have studied DNA binding and photocleavgage properties of a bisacridine chromophore joined by a 2,6-bis(aminomethyl)pyridine copper-binding linker (Chapter II), a series of 9-aminomethyl anthracene chromophores (Chapters III and IV), both under conditions of high and low ionic strength, as well as a series of pentamethine linked symmetrical carbocyanine dyes (Chapter V).
