Tetraaryls

Iron Porphyrins. Porphyrias (15—17) are aromatic cycHc compouads that coasist of four pyrrole units linked at the a-positions by methine carbons. The extended TT-systems of these compounds give rise to intense absorption bands in the uv/vis region of the spectmm. The most intense absorption, which is called the Soret band, falls neat 400 nm and has 10. The TT-system is also responsible for the notable ring current effect observed in H-nmr spectra, the preference for planar conformations, the prevalence of electrophilic substitution reactions, and the redox chemistry of these compounds. Porphyrins obtained from natural sources have a variety of peripheral substituents and substitution patterns. Two important types of synthetic porphyrins are the meso-tetraaryl porphyrins, such as 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphine [917-23-7] (H2(TPP)) (7) and P-octaalkylporphyrins, such as 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octaethylporphine [2683-82-1] (H2(OEP)) (8). Both types can be prepared by condensation of pyrroles and aldehydes (qv). 

Tetraalkyl and tetraaryl compounds, R SbX, are well-known and are often referred to as stibonium salts. There is evidence, however, that most of the tetraaryl compounds contain pentacovalent antimony. The perchlorate [(C3H3)4Sb](ClO, however, is ionic (186). The tetraalkyl haUdes are readily prepared by quaternization of the corresponding tertiary stibiaes ...

Several titanium(IV) complexes are efficient and reliable Lewis acid catalysts and they have been applied to numerous reactions, especially in combination with the so-called TADDOL (a, a,a, a -tetraaryl-l,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanol) (22) ligands [53-55]. In the first study on normal electron-demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions between nitrones and alkenes, which appeared in 1994, the catalytic reaction of a series of chiral TiCl2-TADDOLates on the reaction of nitrones 1 with al-kenoyloxazolidinones 19 was developed (Scheme 6.18) [56]. These substrates have turned out be the model system of choice for most studies on metal-catalyzed normal electron-demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of nitrones as it will appear from this chapter. When 10 mol% of the catalyst 23a was applied in the reaction depicted in Scheme 6.18 the reaction proceeded to give a yield of up to 94% ee after 20 h. The reaction led primarily to exo-21 and in the best case an endo/ exo ratio of 10 90 was obtained. The chiral information of the catalyst was transferred with a fair efficiency to the substrates as up to 60% ee of one of the isomers of exo3 was obtained [56]. 

The authors used a synthesis of 9,9-spirobitluorenes 32 which was developed by Clarksen and Gomberg [60] and which includes the addition of biphenyl-2-yl-magnesium iodide to fluorenone and subsequent cyclization with protic acids. To obtain 2,2,, 7,7 -arylated 9,9-spirobifluorenes 33, 9,9-spirobifluorene (32) was tetrabrominated [58] to yield 34 followed by a Suzuki-type aryl-aryl cross-coupling with various oligoaryl and oligoheteroaryl boronic acids to obtain the 2,2, 7,7 -tetraarylated derivatives 33. 

The second approach using P4S,0 in boiling xylene as cyclization agent was applied to the synthesis of 2,4,4,6-tetraaryl derivatives 11 and sur-...

The a,a,a,a-tetraaryl-l,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanol (TADDOL) chiral ligands have also been the basis of enantioselective catalysis of the D-A reaction. In a study using 2-methoxy-6-methylquinone as the dienophile, evidence was found that the chloride-ligated form of the catalysts was more active than the dimeric oxy-bridged form.117... 

Disilenes are very reactive toward a variety of unsaturated bonds, such as C=C, C=C, C=N, C=N, C=0, C=S, N=N, and N=0, giving interesting four-membered ring compounds that are otherwise difficult to synthesize.3b Reactions using stable tetraaryl- or dialkyldiaryldisilenes and marginally stable tetra-t-butyldisilene (21), which is generated by photolysis of the corresponding cyclotrisilane, are summarized in Schemes 10 and 11, respectively. Some of them merit further comments.
