Article Abstract
A new class of luminescent bis(bipyridyl) Ru(ii) pyridyl acyclic carbene complexes with environmentally-sensitive dimerization equilibrium have been developed. Owing to the involvement of the orbitals of the diaminocarbene ligand in the emissive excited state, the phosphorescence properties of these complexes are strongly affected by H-bonding interactions with various H-bonding donor/acceptor molecules. With the remarkable differences in the emission properties of the monomer, dimer, and H-bonded amine adducts together with the change of the dimerization equilibrium, these complexes can be used as luminescent gas sensors for humidity, ammonia, and amine vapors. With the responses to amines and humidity and the corresponding change in the luminescence properties, a proof-of-principle for binary optical data storage with a reversible concealment process has been described.

Developing a general approach for the functionalization of coordinating heteroaromatic amines with alcohol is challenging. Here, we designed an efficient protocol using a pincer-NHC carbene-based Mn(I) complex for the selective -alkylation of 2-aminoazole molecules with ethanol and methanol. This methodology is versatile and applicable to the coupling of a wide range of alcohols, including methanol, ethanol, aryl alcohols, and both acyclic and cyclic aliphatic alcohols, with various 2-aminoazoles, aminopyridine, and aminoquinoline derivatives, to provide diverse monoalkylated compounds in good to excellent yields.

N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are extensively used as auxiliary ligands or organocatalysts thanks to their remarkable stability. However, due to their high structural stability, applications involving skeletal modifications without losing the low-valent nature (carbene exchange reactions) remain extremely rare. We report here that aluminacyclopropene-phosphine complex 1 promotes original "carbene-to-carbene" transformations of stable carbenes.

In this study, we report our recent findings on the synthesis and reactivity of a novel 1,2,3-triazolin-5-imine-type mesoionic imine-carbodiimide (MII-CDI) adduct. Unlike reported NHC-CDI adducts, formed by the reactions of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) with CDI, these zwitterionic compounds undergo a spontaneous 1,3-hydrogen shift (1,3-H shift), resulting in guanidine-type compounds. The mechanism of this 1,3-H shift has been investigated through quantum chemical calculations.

A relay Rh(II)/Pd(0) dual-catalyzed three-component allylic alkylation of alcohols, α-diazo 1,3-diketones, and allyl reagents is successfully developed, which provides a highly chemoselective method for the one-pot synthesis of acyclic α-quaternary allylated β-keto-esters. Remarkably, this transformation includes difunctionalizations of ketene intermediates instead of metal-carbene intermediates. Our protocol is characterized by mild conditions, simple raw materials, and good to excellent yields.

An effectively enantioselective and regioselective N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed oxidative spiroannulation of isatin-derived enals with 2,4-dioxoesters to directly synthesize spirooxindole δ-lactones was realized. Subsequently, upon treatment with methanol under reflux, spirooxindole δ-lactones were effectively converted into acyclic 3,3'-disubstituted oxindole derivatives bearing an all-carbon quaternary center that might have been obtained through a novel sequence of deesterification and decarbonylation paths. This approach was qualified with a broad substrate scope and mild reaction conditions, achieving moderate to excellent yield and enantioselectivity.
