Isocyanates have a broad spectrum of uses and they are used in the production of many products including polyurethane polymers, coatings, adhesives, paints and foams. While isocyanates are widely studied and well represented in the literature, nitrogen substituted isocyanates are quite rare. Amino and imino-isocyanates are examples of nitrogen substituted isocyanates. Previous work within the group studied the reactivity of these intermediates in the alkene aminocarbonylation reaction, and used hydrazones and hydrazides as precursors of nitrogen substituted isocyanates. From there, a second reaction pathway was studied. This involved the reactivity of hydrazones with nucleophiles to develop a simple exchange reaction. In this work, the substitution reactivity involving imino-isocyanates will be presented. This will include the scope of nucleophiles and hydrazones as well as a discussion on the formation of the imino-isocyanates. This reactivity allows for the facile formation of a variety of hydrazones with the flexibility to start from common hydrazone precursors.

Ce travail de thèse explorait certains aspects de la chimie de coordination de complexes moléculaires à bases de métaux 3d (Fe, Cu, Mn et Ni) supportés par des ligands azotés de type aroyle-hydrazone. Le travail de cette thèse était plus particulièrement centré sur le développement des nouveaux ligands et la photo chimie des complexes ferriques, afin d’élucider en particulier les mécanismes de la photo réduction qui valorise un brevet du laboratoire sur la production et le stockage d’énergie solaire via la photo réduction d’ions ferriques. Les complexes mis en jeu dans le processus ont été totalement caractérisés en solution et à l’état solide. Ce phénomène prend place en solution comme en solution gelée. La cinétique du processus photochimique a été suivie par UV-Visible comme par RPE. Cette photo réduction passe par un intermédiaire radicalaire et le solvant joue le rôle du donneur des électrons. Ce processus a été totalement étudié : l’effet du solvant, l’effet de la modification dans la sphère de coordination du complexe, l’effet de la modification de la périphérie des ligands et finalement l’effet des longueurs d’ondes. D’autres domaines sont également explorés, comme le magnétisme moléculaire ou encore la catalyse homogène (oligomérisation de l’éthylène) avec des complexes à base de Ni2+. / This PhD thesis explored some aspects of the coordination chemistry of molecular complexes based on 3d transition metal ions (Fe, Cu, Mn and Ni) coordinated by multidentate aroyl-hydrazone ligands. The work of this thesis was particularly focused on the development of new ligands, their coordination chemistry and the photochemistry of ferric complexes. The central objective of this work was to elucidate the mechanism of the photo reduction process, in order to valorize an already accepted laboratory patent on the production and storage of solar energy. The complexes involved in the process have been fully characterized in solution and in the solid state. This phenomenon takes place in solution as in frozen solution. The kinetics of the photochemical process was followed by UV-Visible as by RPE. This photo reduction passes through a radical intermediate and the solvent plays the role of the electron donor. This process has been fully studied: the effect of the solvent, the effect of the modification in the coordination sphere of the complex, the effect of the modification of the periphery of the ligands and finally the effect of the light and different wavelengths. Other fields are also explored, such as molecular magnetism for different mono and dinuclear iron and manganese complexes or even homogeneous catalysis (oligomerization of ethylene) with complexes based on Ni(II).

Many objective chemical tests have attempted to correlate with organoleptic evaluation of oxidative rancidity. Major chemical tests used to detect oxidative rancidity of lipids measure nonvolatile high molecular weight carbonylic substances which make no considerable contribution to rancid flavors. High molecular weight carbonyls are present at much greater concentrations than volatile low molecular weight carbonyls. Peroxides and other unknown substances also react in these chemical tests to give at best an empirical evaluation. A 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone chemical test is proposed which corrected some deficiencies of earlier procedures, and was correlated with organoleptic evaluation of rancid turkey samples. The proposed test measures oxidative rancidity in terms of milligrams of acetaldehyde per kilogram of sample. A comparison of the 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone method with a widely used chemical test was conducted. The thiobarbituric acid test was selected because it is used most often as an indicator of rancidity. The thiobarbituric acid test values increased followed by a definite leveling off as formation of malonaldehyde reached a maximum even though rancid flavor continued to increase. The 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone test measured a continuing increase of volatile aliphatic aldehydes as rancid flavor increased .

Les réactions multicomposants (MCR) permettent l'obtention monotope de molécules cibles à partir de 3 composants ou plus. Cette méthodologie est très utile, notamment dans la synthèse d'hétérocycles. Les isonitriles, de par leur réactivité particulière, sont les réactifs de prédilection pour ces réactions. Dans un premier temps, une nouvelle synthèse d'oxazoles a été mise au point. A partir des réactifs deux réactions sont en compétitions. Cette étude met en évidence l'importance du choix d'une base dans la chimioselectivité d'un processus. Dans un deuxième temps, un travail a été effectué sur les hydrazones. Une nouvelle synthèse d'hydrazones à 3-composants a été mise au point. Cette réaction, couplée à la synthèse de Fischer permet l'obtention d'indoles fonctionnalisés sans isolation d'intermédiaires. De plus, grâce à ces hydrazones, une nouvelle réaction de cyclisation/oxydation catalysée au cuivre (II) a été découverte. Ce couplage permet la synthèse de pyrazolidinones de manière efficace. Cette réaction appliquée à des adduits préparé par la réaction de Ugi, devient une nouvelle voie de post-condensation de ces composés.
