A modular synthesis provides access to a series of new tris(pyrazolyl)borate ligands XpyMeTpK that possess a single functionalized pendant pyridyl (py) or pyrimidyl (pyd) arm designed to engage in tunable intramolecular H-bonding to metal–bound functionalities. To illustrate such H-bonding interactions, a series of [XpyMeTpCu]2(𝜇–OH)2(6a–6e) complexes were synthesized from the corresponding XpyMeTpCu–OAc (5a–5e) complexes. Single crystal X-ray structures of three new dinuclear [XpyMeTpCu]2(𝜇–OH)2complexes reveal H-bonding between the pendant heterocycle and bridging hydroxide ligands while the donor arm engages the copper center in an unusual monomeric DMAPMeTpCu–OH complex. Vibrational studies (IR) of each bridging hydroxide complex reveal reduced 𝜈OH frequencies that tracks with the H-bond accepting ability of the pendant arm.

AbstractA concise and modular synthesis of pyrrolo[1,2-a][1,6]- and [1,8]naphthyridines by a one-pot two-step reaction consisting of electrophilic acylation followed by an alkyne-carbonyl-metathesis reaction as the final cyclization step is reported. This developed synthetic methodology allows the facile synthesis of these heterocyclic core structures in mainly high overall yields under metal-free conditions. Reaction conditions are carefully optimized and display a novel supplement to access these tricyclic heterocyclic compounds.
