Com base em trabalhos tanto teóricos como experimentais, tem-se concluído que o Cu+ fica em posição fora de centro em alguns halogenetos alcalinos. Neste, trabalho apresentamos resultados obtidos por técnicas de correntes termoestimuladas(ITC), para, verificar propriedades de dipolos elétricos devido a Íons de Cu+ em posição fora da centro em cristais de KCl. Ampliou-se o estudo do comportamento do Cu+ em cristais de KBr e KI. As bandas de ITC observadas nestes cristais, apresentam máximos em 62, 70 e 83 &#176K, e as energias de ativação são de 0.177, 0.196 e 0.232 eV em KCl, KBr e KI, respectivamente. A partir da integração das bandas de ITC e as concentrações de Cu+ achados por absorção ótica, o momento, dipolar elétrico é determinado, conduzindo a valores de 1.5, 1.9 e 2.6 e &#197 no KCl, KBr e KI, respectivamente. Dada a forma da banda de ITC, comprova-se que a reorientação dos dipo1os segue o modelo clássico com um tempo de relaxação simples, e que o Cu+ fica congelado em posição fora de centro abaixo daquelas temperaturas em que ocorre o máximo da banda de ITC. / Theoretical and experimental investigations have concluded that Cu+ occupies an off-canter position in several alkali halides. In this work we report results obtained by ionic thermal-currents technique (ITC) to verify the electric dipole properties due to Cu+ ions in off-center position in KC1 crystals. This was developed to study the Cu+ ion behaviour in KBr and KI crystals. The ITC band observed in these crystals geve maxima at 62, 70 and 83 &#176K, and the activation energies were 0.177, 0.196 end 0.232 eV in KCI, KBr and KI, respectively. From the integration of the ITC bands and the concentration of Cu+ obtained by optical absorption, the dipole moment is determined, giving values of 1.5, 1.9 and 2.6 e &#197 in KC1, KBr and KI, respectively. Due to the shape of the ITC band, we conclude that the dipole reorientation follows the classical model with a single relaxation time, and that the Cu+ freeze in off-center position below those temperatures where maximum occur at the ITC band.

In organic-inorganic hybrid compounds an organic and an inorganic component are combined to form either a coordination or an ionic material. Relevant to the current study are hybrid materials composed of an organic part that contains one or more functional groups, for example amine, amide or carboxylic acid functional groups, and a metal halide inorganic portion. These functional materials display a range of interesting and desired properties, as evidenced from numerous literature reports on their properties. In order to utilise these properties in applications, a detailed understanding of the way that the crystal structure influences the properties of a material is required. However, before this step can be achieved, it is necessary to obtain information on the structural trends of the materials, and to use the approach of crystal engineering to identify robust supramolecular synthons that may afford structural control and prediction. The aim of the current study was to investigate the synthesis and crystal structures of hybrid materials, both ionic and coordination, composed of divalent transition metal halides and the organic components 4-aminobenzoic acid, 4-aminobenzamide and isonicotinic acid, and to identify the structural trends and crystal engineering synthons displayed by these materials. A secondary objective was the preliminary identification of properties exhibited by selected materials, in order to decide on the suitability of the materials for detailed future property investigations. Part of the work describes the investigation of the structural characteristics of coordination materials prepared by the combination of the organic and inorganic components. Five novel crystal structures of coordination materials were determined, and these are compared with six related coordination structures reported in the literature. Two of the novel structures display interesting one-dimensional coordination polymers, one of which has never been reported previously in the literature. The molecular and structural characteristics of both the novel and the literature coordination structures are presented in detail, and this discussion includes a description of the coordination geometry, the molecular geometry, packing trends, hydrogen bonding interactions and aromatic interactions. A comparison study across the three families of organic components in which the structural trends, hydrogen bonding interactions, aromatic interactions, ligand geometry and coordination modes are compared, is included. The results of the synthesis of the coordination materials by means of a mechanochemical method are presented, and the products afforded by this method are compared with those prepared via solution crystallisation. Finally, the results of preliminary studies of the thermal and electronic propertries of the materials are presented and interpreted. The combination of the hybrid components as cations and anions to form ionic materials yielded nine novel structures, and these were compared with five related ionic structures reported in the literature. The novel structures include three polar structures that contain the 4-ammoniumbenzamide cation, and to our knowledge no structures containing this cation have ever been reported in the literature, hence a significant contribution to the structural knowledge of perhalometallate salts of 4-ammoniumbenzamide is made by this study. In addition two novel structures display interesting one-dimensional and two-dimensional polymeric anions, respectively, are reported. The discussion of the novel and literature ionic structures includes a description of the molecular geometry of each of the components, the identification of packing trends, and an analysis of the hydrogen bonding and aromatic interactions occurring in the structures. The structures of all three families of organic components are compared, and trends in structural type, anion geometry, water inclusion, hydrogen bonding and functional group recognition are presented. In addition, a detailed analysis of robust crystal engineering synthons occurring in these structures is presented. Lastly the results of preliminary property investigations of the thermal and electronic properties of the materials are presented and discussed / Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2011. / Chemistry / unrestricted

Au cours de cette thèse, plusieurs nouvelles méthodes d'arylation de nucléophile (oxygéné, azoté et carboné) ont été mises au point ainsi qu'une étude mécanistique. Dans le cadre du projet ANR, nous avons réalisé des travaux dans ce domaine dans le laboratoire du Dr Anny Jutand à L'ENS Paris. D'un point de vue général, nous pouvons donc dire que nos méthodes se situent bien en phase avec les critères de la réglementation européenne visant à diminuer l'impact des produits chimiques sur l'environnement (REACH) par la recherche de nouvelles voies de synthèse moins toxiques et moins polluantes. Travaux en cours et perspectives : Par rapport aux réactions faisant intervenir des catalyseurs au palladium, celles impliquant le cuivre ont très peu été étudiées du point de vue de leur mécanisme. Les premiers travaux concernant le mécanisme de l'arylation de nucléophiles catalysé au cuivre ont débuté depuis seulement quelques années et ont conduit à environ une dizaine de publications. Malgré quelques avancées significatives, beaucoup reste à faire. / In this thesis, several new methods of nucleophilic arylation (oxygen, nitrogen and carbon) were developed and a mechanistic study. As part of the ANR project, we have carried out work in this field in the laboratory of Dr. Anny Jutand at ENS Paris. From a general point of view we can say that our methods are well in line with the requirements of European regulations to reduce the impact of environmental chemicals (REACH) by the search for new synthetic routes less toxic and less polluting. Work in Progress and prospects : Compared to reactions involving palladium catalysts, those involving copper have been studied very little in terms of their mechanism. Early work on the mechanism of arylation of nucleophiles catalyzed copper began last few years and led to about a dozen publications. Despite some significant advances, much remains to be done.

Lors de ce travail de thèse qui visait à développer une méthode générale d’introduction d’halogénures et de pseudo-halogénures en se basant sur l’utilisation de réactifs d’iode hypervalent en tant que promoteurs d’umpolung, diverses avancées ont pu être accomplies. Tout d’abord, une réaction d'alkoxybromation régiosélective mettant en jeu des sels de bromure et du PIDA a été mise au point. Un des intérêts de cette réaction réside dans l'utilisation de LiBr peu coûteux comme source d'halogène électrophile (par inversion de polarité : umpolung). En outre, l'introduction de deux groupements de manière chimio- et régiosélective est possible sans recourir à l'utilisation d’un catalyseur métallique. Une large gamme d'énamides a été testée et les rendements sont généralement excellents (au dessus de 75 %) et les réactions rapides (moins d’une heure). En outre, la diastéréosélectivité oscille entre modérée et excellente. Ces produits éthoxybromés se sont aussi montrés très polyvalents et permettent l’accès à de nombreux motifs structuraux. Une version asymétrique de cette réaction en faisant intervenir des dérivés d’iode hypervalent chiraux n’a pas été couronnée de succès tout comme l’introduction de copules chirales. Le but initial était de mettre au point une méthode générale de difonctionnalisation d’énamides avec l’insertion d’halogénures. C’est pourquoi, notre stratégie a ensuite été étendue au chlore et une réaction d’éthoxychloration a été développée avec des rendements moyens à très bons (de 36% à 86%) un temps de réaction rapide (généralement autour de 30 minutes) et une diastéréosélectivité moyenne à très bonne (de 55/45 à 92/8). Les deux réactions d’éthoxybromation et d’éthoxychloration ont fait l’objet d’une investigation mécanistique (notamment par spectrométrie de masse) et il semblerait que le mécanisme soit ionique. Nous avons alors voulu appliquer cette méthodologie au fluor, élément dont l’introduction sélective sur un substrat est rarement triviale. En accord avec la littérature, nous avons conclu que le fluor ne pouvait être transféré directement en tant qu’électrophile. Enfin, une version d’éthoxyiodation a été validée et est en cours d’optimisation au laboratoire. Concernant les pseudo-halogénures, nous nous sommes uniquement intéressés aux azotures. Ayant réalisé qu’une réaction d’éthoxyazidation ne serait pas possible, une étude poussée des différents paramètres réactionnels adossée à la compréhension des mécanismes mis en jeu a été entreprise. Deux méthodologies ont alors pu être mises au point : une réaction de diazidation dont les rendements sont modérés ( entre 20% et 52%), les temps de réaction courts (environ 1 h) et des diastéréosélectivités moyennes à bonnes (entre 75/25 et 90/10) ainsi qu’une réaction d’oxyamination qui se montre bien plus efficace avec des rendements moyens à très bons (de 31% à 95%), des temps de réaction assez rapides (autour de 2 h), des diastéréosélectivités souvent excellentes (supérieures à 67/33) et un champ d’application bien plus large (Schéma 245). Ces deux méthodes réunies représentent un outil utile pour l’obtention de composés à la fois azotés et azidés. Dans ce cas, les intermédiaires réactionnels semblent être radicalaires même si des études complémentaires restent à effectuer.L’intérêt synthétique de ces deux types de composés a aussi fait l’objet de diverses études. Si la réduction du groupement azido en amine n’a pas pu être systématiquement accomplie, des réactions de cyclisation d’Huisgen sur les produits diazidés ont cependant fonctionné (les produits oxyaminés semblant trop encombrés stériquement). Quant au groupement TEMPO il a notamment pu être oxydé en cétone. Ainsi, des outils méthodologiques ont été développés lors de cette thèse, pour la difonctionnalisation oxydante d’énamides par des dérivés d’iode (III) hypervalent et en particulier, l’introduction d’halogénures et d’azotures. / Hypervalent iodine compounds such as (diacetoxyiodo)benzene (PIDA) are non-toxic and mild reagents that can behave in similar fashion to transition-metal complexes. Indeed, around the central iodine atom, ligands can be exchanged and then transferred through a formal reductive elimination. Following this strategy, halides can be used as ‘ligands’, in which case an umpolung of the salt can occur to give birth to electrophilic halogen species. Using LiBr, ethanol and PIDA, a variety of enamides underwent a regioselective ethoxybromination with high yields, short reaction time and good to excellent diastereoselectivity. One of the main interests of this reaction lies in the use of a cheap and widely available bromide salt (LiBr) to generate electrophilic halogen species by umpolung. Moreover, despite the oxidative nature of the reaction conditions, a wide scope of functional groups (olefins, esters, alcohols…) is tolerated. This reaction provides α-bromo-hemiaminals which are highly versatile synthons. For instance, various nucleophiles can be incorporated on the hemiaminal moeity and then engaged in further transformations. The development of an asymmetric variant of this transformation using chiral pool or chiral hypervalent iodine was unsucceful. This methodoly has been extended to the umpolung of other salts as chlorine with moderate to good yields (from 36% to 86%) and a moderate to very good diastereoselectivity (from 55/45 to 92/8) with a short reaction time (30 minutes). Mechanistic investigation for both reactions has been performed and an ionic parthway has been priviledge. The introduction of fluorine as an electrophile was not possible according to the litterature.Finally, the last halide, iodine can be tansfered and an ethoxyiodation reaction is under optimisation. Concerning the pseudo-halides, we devot a special attention to azides. Two methodologies has been set up : a diazidation reaction which yields are moderate (betwwen 20% and 52%), short reaction times (around 1 h) and moderate to good diastereoselectivity ratios (between 75/25 and 90/10) and an oxyamination reaction whiwh shows to be much more efficient with moderate to very high yields (from 31% to 95%), short reaction times (around 2 h), excellent diastereoselectivity ratio (superior to67/33). These two gathered reactions represent a useful tool for the introduction of a nitrogen. For the diazidation reaction, the intermediatories seem to be radicals whereas for the oxyamination reaction probably ionic species. . Thus, synthetic tools have been developped during this thesis for the difunctionnalisation of enamides by hypervalent iodine and particulary introduction of halides and azides

abstract: Transition metal di- and tri-halides (TMH) have recently gathered research attention owing to their intrinsic magnetism all the way down to their two-dimensional limit. 2D magnets, despite being a crucial component for realizing van der Waals heterostructures and devices with various functionalities, were not experimentally proven until very recently in 2017. The findings opened up enormous possibilities for studying new quantum states of matter that can enable potential to design spintronic, magnetic memory, data storage, sensing, and topological devices. However, practical applications in modern technologies demand materials with various physical and chemical properties such as electronic, optical, structural, catalytic, magnetic etc., which cannot be found within single material systems. Considering that compositional modifications in 2D systems lead to significant changes in properties due to the high anisotropy inherent to their crystallographic structure, this work focuses on alloying of TMH compounds to explore the potentials for tuning their properties. In this thesis, the ternary cation alloys of Co(1-x)Ni(x)Cl(2) and Mo(1-x)Cr(x)Cl(3) were synthesized via chemical vapor transport at a various stoichiometry. Their compositional, structural, and magnetic properties were studied using Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy, Raman Spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction, and Vibrating Sample Magnetometry. It was found that completely miscible ternary alloys of Co(1-x)Ni(x)Cl(2) show an increasing Néel temperature with nickel concentration. The Mo(1-x)Cr(x)Cl(3) alloy shows potential magnetic phase changes induced by the incorporation of molybdenum species within the host CrCl3 lattice. Magnetic measurements give insight into potential antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic transition with molybdenum incorporation, accompanied by a shift in the magnetic easy-axis from parallel to perpendicular. Phase separation was found in the Fe(1-x)Cr(x)Cl(3) ternary alloy indicating that crystallographic structure compatibility plays an essential role in determining the miscibility of two parent compounds. Alloying across two similar (TMH) compounds appears to yield predictable results in properties as in the case of Co(1-x)Ni(x)Cl(2), while more exotic transitions, as in the case of Mo(1-x)Cr(x)Cl(3), can emerge by alloying dissimilar compounds. When dissimilarity reaches a certain limit, as with Fe(1-x)Cr(x)Cl(3), phase separation becomes more favorable. Future studies focusing on magnetic and structural phase transitions will reveal more insight into the effect of alloying in these TMH systems. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Materials Science and Engineering 2020

Aromatic rings are universal motifs in natural products, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and wide variety of organic materials. Aromatic halides are widely used as synthetic precursors in all these applications. Therefore, tremendous effort has been devoted to activate aryl halides in the past decades. The common methods to activate aryl halides require the use of transition-metals either in the form of Grignard reagents or through the use of transition-metal catalysis. <br>Over the past decade, photoredox catalysis has attracted significant attention as a cogent tool to develop greener synthetic processes and enable new molecular activation pathways under mild conditions. The most common of these approaches uses a photoredox/nickel dual catalytic cycle.<br>While this technology has greatly expanded the toolbox of organic chemists, this method still requires expensive rare-metal-based catalyts. Herein, we present a series of visible light-induced methods that are transition-metal-free. These new base-promoted transformations and their mechanistic work will be discussed in the following order:<br>We will first present our discovery that the dimsyl anion enables visible-light-promoted charge transfer in cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides. This work was applied to the synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl chalcogenides. This method has a broad scope and functional group tolerance. An electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) complex between a dimsyl anion and the aryl halide is formed during the reaction and explains the observed aryl radical reactivity observed.<br>Then, a visible-light-induced borylation and phosphorylation of aryl halides under mild conditions was developed. Inspired by the mechanistic breakthroughs observed in the previous work. The mechanism of this reaction also involves an aryl radical that is presumed to be formed also via an EDA complex. In other work, a photo-induced phosphonation of ArI using N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) and trialkyl phosphites was developed. This method uses very mild conditions, which allowed the preparation a wide variety of functionalized aromatic phosphonates derivatives, including natural products and medicinal compounds. Finally, a photochemical amination of amides was developed via a C(sp 3 )–H bond functionalization<br>process under visible light irradiation. This reaction showed good functional group compatibility without the use of external radical initiators, strong oxidants, or heat source. An EDA complex between N-bromophthalimide and LiOtBu is formed during the reaction.

The purpose of the work described in this thesis was the synthesis of a new class of surfactants containing chiral cationic end groups and the synthesis of two chiral reactant molecules which would react in the presence of these surfactants. The structures of the surfactant and substrate molecules were designed to maximize their stereochemical interactions and in this way reveal details of the nature of micellar catalysis. In order to indicate why these structures were selected, several examples of micellar catalysis and the factors influencing it will be discussed in the following pages.
