1	Synthesis and structural studies of N- and P-donor ligands in Chromium(III) complexes Brennan, Nicholas Frederick 23 October 2010 (has links) The fundamental knowledge of Cr(III) chemistry has been enhanced via detailed structural and spectroscopic studies of largely novel compounds that may potentially be active tri- and tetramerisation precursors. The compounds are based on various monodentate and bidentate nitrogen and phosphorus ligands which have been coordinated to [CrCl3 (thf) 3]. The few compounds that have been synthesised previously have in this study been made via novel synthetic routes and incorporate a combination of new and more detailed analysis than was carried out previously. The eight structures determined, in addition to offering novel crystallographic data, also provided insights into the synthetic pathways leading to compound formation. The isolation of monomeric structures suggests direct ligand substitution, while the cationic-anionic structures suggest the presence of dimeric intermediates which have been cleaved asymmetrically. Infrared and Raman spectra of these structures were able to add weight to these pathway proposals and, by means of vibrational comparisons, assisted in the general band assignments of the compounds' spectra where structures were not available. Vibrational shifts relative to the free ligands, as well as metal–ligand vibrations in the far infrared region, were also of significant value in terms of ligand coordination and geometry. Closely associated with the infrared and Raman spectra analysis was the generation of theoretical spectra using Density Functional Theory calculations. The excellent agreement between the calculated and experimental spectra confirmed the vibrational assignments. Also generated by computational means were the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) of the compounds which indicated the sites of potential nucleophilic and electrophilic attack. 1H NMR spectroscopy is a technique normally avoided when studying paramagnetic materials. However, by employing a largely novel approach, information pertaining to both ligand coordination and reaction times was obtained. FAB-MS assisted in the confirmation that the single crystal determinations did indeed reflect the composition of the bulk precipitated samples. It also provided additional structural information through the identification of fragmentation patterns which could not be gained by techniques such as elemental analysis. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Chemistry / unrestricted Chromium(iii) bidentate Monodentate and bidentate nitrogen Phosphorus ligands UCTD

3	Étude de l’issue diastéréomérique impliquant la réduction radicalaire d’α-bromoesters adjacents à un tétrahydropyrane substitué Viens, Frédérick 09 1900 (has links) Cet ouvrage traite de la formation diastéréosélective de tétrahydropyranes 3,7-cis et 3,7-trans polysubstitués. Des méthodologies de cycloétherification et de C-glycosidation en tandem avec une réduction radicalaire y sont décrites (pyranes 3,7- trans) tandis qu’une haloéthérification en tandem avec le même processus radicalaire conduit aux pyranes 3,7-cis. Suite à des travaux antérieurs du laboratoire, des études ont été réalisées afin de comprendre l’influence de la stéréochimie des substituants en position C3, C6, C7 et C8 sur l’issue diastéréochimique lors d’un transfert d’hydrure sous contrôle exocyclique sur un centre radicalaire adjacent à un tétrahydropyrane (C2). Ces études ont permis de solutionner les problèmes de diastéréosélectivité rencontrés lors des réductions radicalaires des centres en C2 de divers fragments élaborés d’ionophores (e.g. zincophorine, salinomycine, narasine…) réalisées par notre groupe. Des études conformationnelles réalisées sur des pyranes di- ou tri-substitués ont permis de comprendre les diastéréosélectivités notées lors du processus radicalaire en fonction des stéréochimies relatives des centres précédemment cités. En particulier, l’utilisation d’un bicycle rigide (trans-octahydrochromène) a permis de montrer l’importance du positionnement spatial (axial ou équatorial) de la chaîne portant le centre radicalaire. Par la suite, nous avons pu mettre en évidence une amplification des ratios en faveur du produit de réduction radicalaire 2,3-anti lorsque la réaction est réalisée en présence d’un acide de Lewis monodentate encombré (MAD). L’optimisation du contrôle endocyclique lors du transfert d’hydrure a permis de générer la stéréochimie complémentaire 2,3-syn. L’utilisation du TTMSS comme source d’hydrure combinée à l’utilisation d’un acide de Lewis bidentate tel que MgBr2·OEt2 a permis l’obtention d’excellentes sélectivités en faveur du produit endocyclique. Des études RMN 13C ainsi que le titrage des ions Mg2+ en solution ont été effectués afin de comprendre la nature des complexes impliqués. Finalement, ces études ont permis la formation stéréocontrôlée de centres stéréogéniques adjacents à un THP, motifs fréquement rencontrés dans certains policétides. Elles permettent ainsi d’envisager la synthèse de polyéthers de type ionophore et d’autres molécules d’intérêt biologique. / This work describes the diastereoselective formation of polysubstituted 3,7-cis and 3,7-trans tetrahydropyrans. Tandem radical reduction/cycletherification and tandem radical reduction/C-glycosidation methodologies are depicted for 3,7-trans pyrans formation while tandem radical reduction/haloetherification lead to 3,7-cis pyrans. Following previous work in the laboratory, studies have been conducted to better understand the stereochemical influence that substituents in the C3, C6, C7 and C8 positions have on the diastereoselectivity of a hydride transfer radical reaction on a radical center with an adjacent tetrahydropyran (exocyclic control). These studies have helped to solve diastereoselectivity problems encountered with C2 radical reductions in different ionophore fragments (e.g. zincophorin, salinomycin, narasin ...) that were investigated by our group. Conformational studies performed on di-or tri-substituted pyrans have helped to understand the diastereoselectivities observed in the radical process of the stereochemical centers mentioned above. In particular, the use of a bicycle frame (trans-octahydrochromene) showed the importance of the spatial positioning (axial or equatorial) of the radical center chain. Subsequently, we were able to demonstrate an increase ratios for the 2,3-anti radical reduction product when the reaction was performed in the presence of a bulky monodentate Lewis acid (MAD). Optimization of hydride transfer under endocyclic control has generated the complementary 2,3-syn stereochemistry. Use of TTMSS as a hydride source combined with the use of a bidentate Lewis acid such as MgBr2·OEt2 allowed for the formation of endocyclic products with excellent selectivities. 13C NMR studies and titration of Mg2+ ions in solution were performed to understand the nature of the complexes involved. Finally, these studies led to the stereocontrolled formation of stereogenic centers adjacent to a THP, motifs frequently encountered in polyketides. This work thus involves the synthesis of polyether ionophore-type fragments and other molecules of biological interest.

9	Investigations into cyclopropanation and ethylene polymerization via salicylaldiminato copper (II) complexes Boyd, Ramon Cornell 23 January 2007 Two distinct overall research objectives are in this Masters thesis. Very little relates the two chapters apart from the ligands. The first chapter addresses diastereoselective homogeneous copper catalyzed cyclopropanation reactions. Cyclopropanation of styrene and ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) is a standard test reaction for homogeneous catalysts. Sterically bulky salicylaldimine (SAL) ligands should select for the ethyl trans-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate diastereomer. Steric bulk poorly influences trans:cis ratios. Salicylaldiminine ligands do not posses the correct symmetry to affect diastereoselectivity. The SAL ligand belongs to the Cs point group in the solid state. Other ligand motifs are more effective at altering the trans:cis ratios. The second chapter addresses the general route toward successful copper(II) ethylene polymerization catalysts. Catalytic activity of the copper(II) complexes is very low. Polymer chain growth from a copper catalyst is very unlikely. Copper-carbon bonds decompose by homolytic cleavage or C-H activation. Copper-alkyls and aryls readily decompose into brown colored oils and salts with different colors. Ligand transfer to trimethylaluminum (TMA) appears to explain low yield ethylene polymerization. bulky migratory insertion mechanism coordination/insertion methodology d-block metal late transition metal phenolic ring coordination number ketimine precatalysts ketimine nitrogen bis(salicylaldiminato)copper(II) ratio cyclopropane steric bulk salicylaldiminato TMA salt trimethylaluminum aryl oil alkyl copper-aryls copper-alkyls C-H activation homolytic homolytic cleavage copper(II) polymerization ethylene cis trans symmetry diastereomer salicylaldimine SAL EDA ethyl diazoacetate styrene cyclopropanation copper diastereoselective steric protection stable CH(SiMe3)2 intermediate catalytic activity associated TMA free TMA vacant coordination site hydrolysis Lewis acid halogen anionic anionic ligand donor ligand monodentate anionic ligand aluminum(III) monodentate polymer chain polymer chain aluminum-carbon bond bulky SAL ligand open coordination site first row transition metal PE paramagnetic high molecular weight polyethylene alkylate methylaluminoxane MAO anionic ligands arylate aluminum carbon aluminum carbon bond beta-hydrogen elimination beta hydrogen elimination Aufbau reaction Aufbau neutral dialkyl aluminum aluminum-alkyl aluminum alkyl copper(0)
