Mulholland, Katie D. published the artcileIridium-catalysed 3,5-bis-borylation of phthalonitrile enables access to a family of C4h octaarylphthalocyanines, Safety of Phthalonitrile, the main research area is transition metal octaarylphthalocyanine complex preparation crystal structure; NMR spectra fluorescence transition metal octaarylphthalocyanine complex; preparation arylphthalonitrile crystal structure NMR spectra.
Ir-catalyzed borylation of phthalonitrile produces both 4-(Bpin)phthalonitrile (1) and 3,5-bis(Bpin)phthalonitrile (2), which are potential divergent intermediates for the synthesis of functionalized phthalocyanines. To exemplify the utility of 2, the authors prepared a series of 3,5-bis-arylphthalonitriles that in turn undergo sterically controlled regioselective cyclotetramization to give previously unknown C4h 1,3,8,10,15,17,22,24-octaarylphthalocyanines.
Chemical Communications (Cambridge, United Kingdom) published new progress about Crystal structure. 91-15-6 belongs to class nitriles-buliding-blocks, name is Phthalonitrile, and the molecular formula is C8H4N2, Safety of Phthalonitrile.
