    On Silylated Oxonium and Sulfonium Ions and Their Interaction with Weakly Coordinating Borate Anions
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Bläsing, Kevin; Labbow, Rene; Michalik, Dirk; Reiß, Fabian; Schul, Axel; Villinger, Alexander; Walker, Svenja
    Attempts have been made to prepare salts with the labile tris(trimethylsilyl)chalconium ions, [(Me3Si)3E]+ (E=O, S), by reacting [Me3Si-H-SiMe3][B(C6F5)4] and Me3Si[CB] (CB−=carborate=[CHB11H5Cl6]−, [CHB11Cl11]−) with Me3Si-E-SiMe3. In the reaction of Me3Si-O-SiMe3 with [Me3Si-H-SiMe3][B(C6F5)4], a ligand exchange was observed in the [Me3Si-H-SiMe3]+ cation leading to the surprising formation of the persilylated [(Me3Si)2(Me2(H)Si)O]+ oxonium ion in a formal [Me2(H)Si]+ instead of the desired [Me3Si]+ transfer reaction. In contrast, the expected homoleptic persilylated [(Me3Si)3S]+ ion was formed and isolated as [B(C6F5)4]− and [CB]− salt, when Me3Si-S-SiMe3 was treated with either [Me3Si-H-SiMe3][B(C6F5)4] or Me3Si[CB]. However, the addition of Me3Si[CB] to Me3Si-O-SiMe3 unexpectedly led to the release of Me4Si with simultaneous formation of a cyclic dioxonium dication of the type [Me3Si-μO-SiMe2]2[CB]2 in an anion-mediated reaction. DFT studies on structure, bonding and thermodynamics of the [(Me3Si)3E]+ and [(Me3Si)2(Me2(H)Si)E]+ ion formation are presented as well as mechanistic investigations on the template-driven transformation of the [(Me3Si)3E]+ ion into a cyclic dichalconium dication [Me3Si-μE-SiMe2]22+. © 2019 The Authors.

    Novel quinoxaline based chemosensors with selective dual mode of action: nucleophilic addition and host–guest type complex formation
    (2016) Ishtiaq, Marium; Munir, Iqra; al-Rashida, Mariya; Maria, Maria; Ayub, Khurshid; Iqbal, Jamshed; Ludwig, Ralf; Khan, Khalid Mohammed; Ali, Syed Abid; Hameed, Abdul
    New quinoxalinium salts 1–5 have been exploited as chemosensors via naked eye, UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence quenching and 1H NMR experiments. New sensors 1–5 showed a dual mode, nucleophilic addition and a host–guest type complex towards anion (F−, AcO− and ascorbate) detection. Small anions (F−/AcO−) showed nucleophilic addition at the C2 position of the quinoxalinium cation, while larger anions (ascorbate), revealed the formation of a host–guest type complex due to the steric hindrance posed by the C3 of the phenyl ring. Nucleophilic addition of small anions (F−/AcO−) leads to the de-aromatization of the quinoxalinium cation. However in the case of the larger anion, ascorbate, the host–guest type complex formation induces changes in the absorption/fluorescence signals of the quinoxalinium moiety. This selective binding has been confirmed on the basis of the 1H NMR spectroscopic technique, whereupon nucleophilic addition of small anions (F−/AcO−) was confirmed by monitoring the characteristic proton NMR signals of Ha and the methylene protons (CH2), which were clearly shifted in the cases of fluoride and acetate ion addition confirming the de-aromatization and nucleophilic addition. Whereas no such peak shifting was observed in the case of ascorbate ion addition confirming the non-covalent addition of ascorbate. Theoretical insight into the selectivity and complexation behavior of the ascorbate ion with the quinoxaline moiety is gained through density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Moreover, the absorption properties of these complexes are modeled theoretically, and compared with the experimental data. In addition, the thermal decomposition of sensors (1 and 2) has been studied by the means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TG), and differential thermogravimetry (DTG) to signify their utility at variable temperatures.
