Hydroboration of bi(cyclopent-1-ene) (1) or 3,3'-biindene (2) with borane, thexylborane or (-)-isopinocampheylborane afforded, regardless of reaction conditions, meso-isomers of polycyclic 1,4-diols 3a, 4a as the main products. No reaction was observed with 9-BBN. The structure of the major product 4a, as well as of the minor racemic product 4b was assigned based on 1H NMR spectra of the corresponding Mosher's diesters 5a-5c. Finally, the stereochemistry of the product 4a was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray analysis of the corresponding dimesylate 6. To elucidate preferential formation of the meso-isomers, complexes of monohydroborated intermediate with borane were studied theoretically by DFT methods.

The title compound was obtained as the major product of our handling of the literature preparation of tris(imidazol-2-yl)phosphine. The compound was characterized by 1H NMR, mass and vibrational spectroscopy. The structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystals were triclinic, [Formula: see text], a = 7.677(1), b = 12.658(2), c = 10.072(2) Å, α = 91.18(1),β = 114.44(1),γ = 99.49(1)°, Z = 4. Intensities were measured on a Syntex P21 diffractometer with MoKα radiation and 3088 reflections were used to determine the structure. R = 0.0698, Rw = 0.0534. The phosphinic acid exists in the solid as the zwitterionic form and bond lengths and angles are normal. Keywords: tris(imidazol-2-yl)phosphine, X-ray structure, bis(imidazol-2-yl)phosphinic acid hemihydrate.

A novel triphyrin was unexpectedly formed as a major by-product in the synthesis of meso-aryl-substituted dibenzo-5,10,15-triazaporphyrin from meso-aryl-substituted 1,9-dibromodipyrromethene and 5,6-diaryl-substituted 1,3-diiminoisoindoline in the presence of N,N-dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE). X-ray single crystal diffraction analysis elucidated that the terminal α-positions of this triphyrin were bridged by an N-methylaminoethoxy chain, which plausibly originated from DMAE during the reaction. The same compound was also obtained as a major product in the reaction of DMAE and meso-aryl-substituted 1,9-dibromodipyrromethene. Its unique properties, such as conformational flexibility of the bridging moiety and broad absorption in the visible region, were also revealed by 1 H NMR and UV-vis absorption spectroscopies.

A π-extended “earring” subporphyrin 3 was synthesized from β,β′-diiodosubporphyrin and diboryltripyrrane via a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and following oxidation. Its Pd complex 3Pd was also synthesized and both of the compounds were fully characterized by 1H NMR, MS and X-ray single crystal diffraction. The 1H NMR spectra and single crystal structures revealed that aromatic ring current did not extend to the “ear” in both of the two compounds. Their UV–vis/NIR spectra were recorded and the absorption of both compounds is extended to the NIR region and that the absorption of 3Pd is further red-shifted and more intense.

4-(2-Fluorophenyl)-7-methoxycoumarin (6) was synthesized by Pechmann reaction under mild conditions via a three-step reaction. The solution-state 1H NMR spectra of 6 showed a strong intramolecular interaction between F and H5 (J FH = 2.6 Hz) and 13C NMR suggested that this C–F···H–C coupling is a through-space interaction. The 2D 19F-{1H} HOESY and 1H-{19F} 1D experiments were done to confirm this F···H interaction. The single crystal X-ray structure and the DFT-optimized structure showed that the fluorinated phenyl ring favors the orientation with the fluorine atom closer to H5 than H3. The X-ray structure also showed the existence of the intermolecular C–F···H–C interaction.

4-(2-fluorophenyl)-7-methoxycoumarin (6) was synthesized by Pechmann reaction under mild conditions via a three step-reaction. The solution-state 1H NMR spectra of 6 showed a strong intramolecular interaction between F and H5 (J FH = 2.6 Hz) and 13C NMR suggested that this C-F…H-C coupling is a through-space interaction. The 2‑D HOESY spectrum and 1H‑{19F} 1‑D spectrum were also done to confirm this F…H interaction. The single crystal X-ray structure and the DFT-optimized structure showed that the fluorinated phenyl ring favours the orientation with the fluorine atom is closer to H5 than H3. The X-ray structure also showed the existence of the intermolecular C-F…H-C interactions.

The 2:1 adduct of benzyne with 2-methylanisole is shown to have the bisbenzotricyclic structure 6,6a,11,11a-tetrahydro-5-methoxy-6-methyl-5,6,11-metheno-5H-benzo[a]fluorene by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study (C20H18O: Pca21, a = 15.0497(17), b = 9.87783(11), c = 9.6846(11); Z = 4; 1672 data points, R1 = 0.0325). This structure is compared to an unpublished crystal structure of the parent hydrocarbon 6,6a,11,11a-tetrahydro-5,6,11-metheno-5H-benzo[a]fluorene, C18H14. Both structures have also been computed by DFT methods at the B3LYP/6-311(d,p) level of theory. Bond distances and angles between the solid-state measurements and gas-phase calculations are found to agree well; average deviations are well below 1%. The 1H NMR spectra show surprisingly small 3JHH couplings in the central tricyclic cage, but can be assigned using 2D spectroscopy.Key words: Hydrocarbon cages, strained rings, cyclopropane, X-ray crystallography, NMR.

The 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 carbaborane reacts with sodium in liquid ammonia with the formation of 6-CB9H12- which was used as a starting compound for preparing the 4-CB8H14, 9-L-6-CB9H13 (L = (CH3)2S, CH3CN and P(C6H5)3), 1-(η5-C5H5)-1,2-FeCB9H10-, and 2,3-(η5-C5H5)2-2,31-Co2CB9H10- carboranes. The 4-CB8H14 compound was dehydrogenated at 623 K to give 4-(7)-CB8H12 carborane. Base degradation of 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 in methanol resulted in the formation of 3,4-μ-N(CH3)3CH-B5H10. The structure of all compounds was proposed on the basis of their 11B and 1H NMR spectra and X-ray diffraction was used in the case of the transition metal complexes.

On treatment of the [(1,2-C2B9H11)2Co]- ion with naphthalene in presence of AlCl3 a remarkably bridged [8,8'-μ-(CH2-C9H6)-(1,2-C2B9H10)2-3-Co]- ion is obtained as a single isolated compound. The triatomic -CH2-C9H6- bridge is derived from the rearranged naphthalene nucleus. The mechanism of this reaction is obscure but it does resemble the "Electrophile-Induced Nucleophilic Substitution" reported earlier. The structure of the compound was established by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and by single crystal X-ray diffraction.

Reduction of [(η-C5Me5)MoCl(O)]2(μ-O) or (η-C5Me5)MoCl2(O) with sodium or magnesium amalgam, magnesium turnings, or tributyltin hydride produced [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7, with [(η-C5Me5)Mo(O)(μ-O)]2 as a co-product. [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7 was characterized by X-ray diffraction, mass spectrometry, 1H NMR and IR spectroscopies, and magnetism. Crystals of [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7 contained a tetrahedral [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4 unit (Mo-Mo = 2.909 (3) Å) with the Mo4O7 core having the structure Mo4(μ2-O(b))3(µ2-O(c))3(µ3-O(a)) (3). Microcrystalline samples of [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7 were paramagnetic over the temperature range 2-300 K, with an effective moment of 1.26 μB at 300 K. [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7 was also paramagnetic in chloroform solution, over the temperature range 223-298 K, with an effective moment of 1.43 µB at 298 K. The 1H NMR spectrum showed a broad resonance at 16.3 ppm (Δν 1/2 = 113 Hz) and two narrow resonances at 1.89 ppm and 1.69 ppm (Δν 1/2 = 5 Hz). The magnetism and NMR spectra showed that [(η-C5Me5)Mo]4O7 existed in two forms which were in equilibrium in solution. One form was paramagnetic (S = 1), with the Mo4O7 core having the geometry 3, and the other was diamagnetic (S = 0), with the Mo4O7 core having the geometry 4.Key words: cluster, cyclopentadienyl, molybdenum, oxide, paramagnetism.
