چکیده
The new tricopper(II) complex [Cu(3)(μ(3)-BO)(H(3)L)(3)][BF(4)]·2H(2)O (1) with an unprecedented diamondoid-like [Cu(3)B(μ-O)(6)] core has been easily generated by self-assembly in an aqueous medium from Cu(NO(3))(2), NaBF(4), NaOH and Bis-Tris (H(5)L) biobuffer, (HOCH(2))(3)CN(CH(2)CH(2)OH)(2). Compound 1 efficiently promotes the mild single-pot hydrocarboxylation, by CO and H(2)O, of various linear and cyclic C(n) (n = 2-8) alkanes into the corresponding C(n+1) carboxylic acids.

a,b-Unsaturated carboxylic acids are important chemicals, and can be used as basic materials in the production of plastics, superabsorbent, polymers, and rubbers. Various synthetic methodologies for their synthesis have been developed, for example, oxidation of propene over heterogeneous catalysts at high temperature yielded the a,b-unsaturated carboxylic acids and hydrocarboxylation of alkynes...
متن کاملEfficient Synthesis of 5,5-Disubstituted Bis-hydantoins/spirohydantoins and a Tetrakis-analogue: A Drug-like Multi-cyclic Scaffold
An easy method was developed for the efficient preparation of diversely new 5,5-disubstituted N(3),N'(3)-linkaged bis-hydantoins. At first, using the same methods, some ketones and terephthalaldehyde were converted to several hydantoins and a new bis-hydantoin , respectively. Then 1,6-dibromohexane, as a mild reagent, was employed for the alkylation and incorporation of synthesized substrates t...
متن کاملAlkanes to carboxylic acids in aqueous medium: metal-free and metal-promoted highly efficient and mild conversions.
A convenient and clean route to transform, in aqueous medium, various alkanes to carboxylic acids via single-pot carboxylation with CO and water, under mild conditions, has been achieved, proceeding efficiently and selectively even without any metal catalyst and any acid additive, at low temperatures; the relevant hydroxylating role of H(2)O and radical mechanisms are disclosed by radical-trap,...
متن کاملOrthogonal self-assembled monolayers: alkanethiols on gold and alkane carboxylic acids on alumina.
This work demonstrates the practicality of forming two self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), independently but simultaneously, by adsorption of two different adsorbates from a common solution onto a substrate exposing two different materials at its surface. The experimental procedure and the degree of independence achieved in the resulting SAMs are illustrated by examination of monolayers obtained ...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of long chain alkanes and their derivatives on graphite.
We combine scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements with ab initio calculations to study the self-assembly of long chain alkanes and related alcohol and carboxylic acid molecules on graphite. For each system, we identify the optimum adsorption geometry and explain the energetic origin of the domain formation observed in the STM images. Our results for the hierarchy of adsorbate-adsorbat...
