Lower Frequencies

The infrared spectra of many complexes of Lewis acids with some 4-pyridones have been recorded. Large shifts to lower frequencies of about 100 cm−1 have been observed in a band near 1560 cm−1 as the Lewis acid strength increased. Much smaller shifts of about 5 to 10 cm−1 in a band near 1640 cm−1 were noted. The former band has therefore been designated as the carbonyl frequency, and the latter as a ring mode involving CC stretching.The donor site of 4-pyridones is therefore the carbonyl group, and not the nitrogen atom. Protonated 4-pyridones have similar spectra, and are consistent with O-, not N-protonation.

The infrared spectra of 2,6-dimethyl-4-pyrone in solution, and in complexes with HgCl2, ZnCl2, BF3, SbCl5, and HBr have been recorded. A band at 1639 cm−1 in the free pyrone moves to progressively lower frequencies in the complexes as the Lewis acid strength increases, identifying this band as the carbonyl stretching frequency and the donor site as the carbonyl group. A higher-frequency band, at 1678 cm−1 in the free pyrone, moves to lower frequency on complex formation, but to a much smaller extent, and is to be identified with a stretching mode of the ring. The site of protonation in 2,6-dimethyl-4-pyrone salts has been unequivocally shown to be the carbonyl oxygen atom.

Solid Complexes

Xanthone, a member of the γ-pyrone species, which have basic carbonyl groups, forms an excellent series of solid complexes with Lewis acids. In these complexes the carbonyl oxygen atom is the donor site, and the carbonyl stretching vibration moves to progressively lower frequency as the Lewis acid strength increases. The carbonyl frequency in the BI3 complex, 1400 cm−1, is one of the lowest encountered in complexes of this type.The wide range of Lewis acids used to form these complexes has enabled a quantitative estimate of the Lewis acid strength to be made, which compares reasonably well with previous estimates.

Steric Factors

Perfluorinated 9-phenyl-9-borafluorene, 1, is an antiaromatic analog of the well-known tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane. Spectroscopic, structural, and electrochemical studies have been performed on 1 and its Lewis base adducts with MeCN, THF, and PMe3 with a view to assessing its comparative Lewis acid strength relative to B(C6F5)3. For the sterically undemanding Lewis base MeCN, 1 and B(C6F5)3 have comparable LA strengths, while for more sterically prominent THF, 1 is clearly the stronger Lewis acid (LA) based on competition experiments. We conclude that steric factors, rather than antiaromaticity, are the most important determinants in the LA strength differences between 1 and B(C6F5)3.Key words: boranes, Lewis acids, fluorinated compounds, heterocycles.

The infrared spectra of complexes of 1-methyl-2-pyridone and 1-methyl-2-quinolone with Lewis acids are consistent with interaction at the carbonyl group. The stretching frequency of this group, vco, is lowered on complex formation, the change being proportional to the Lewis acidity. Two other bands, at 1 670 and 1 380 cm−1 move to lower frequency in much smaller steps and are associated with ring modes.

Recoverable Catalyst

Palladium chloride anchored on polystyrene modified by 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline was prepared and used as an efficient recoverable catalyst for Suzuki cross-coupling reactions. The heterogeneous catalysts can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused for five cycles without significant Pd leaching and loss of catalytic activity. Rate enhancement in the Suzuki reaction by Lewis acids was also studied.
