A β-diketimine ligand with vinylidene substitution at γ-carbon, CH2C(CH3CNAr)2 (Ar?=?2,6-diisopropylphenyl) (L2), was synthesized by treating β-diketimine H2C(CH3CNAr)2 with n-BuLi followed by paraformaldehyde. L2 formed the homobimetallic ether-bridged β-diketiminate complex [O{(CH2-β-diketiminate)Pd(OAc)}2] (1) with (PdOAc)2. It also gave complexes [L2PdCl2] (2) and [L2NiBr2] (3) when treated with PdCl2(CH3CN)2 and NiBr2(dimethoxyethane), respectively. All the compounds were characterized using 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The catalytic activity of Pd and Ni complexes 1, 2 and 3 was explored in Heck coupling and alkyne trimerization reactions and it was found that they are very good catalysts. The results are reported in detail.

A series of cinnamic acid esters and their derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antifungal activities in vitro against four plant pathogenic fungi by using the mycelium growth rate method. Structure-activity relationship was derived also. Almost all of the compounds showed some inhibition activity on each of the fungi at 0.5 mM. Eight compounds showed the higher average activity with average EC50 values of 17.4-28.6 μg/mL for the fungi than kresoxim-methyl, a commercial fungicide standard, and ten compounds were much more active than commercial fungicide standards carbendazim against P. grisea or kresoxim-methyl against both P. grisea and Valsa Mali. Compounds C1 and C2 showed the higher activity with average EC50 values of 17.4 and 18.5 μg/mL and great potential for development of new plant antifungal agents. The structure-activity relationship analysis showed that both the substitution pattern of the phenyl ring and the alkyl group in the alcohol moiety significantly influences the activity. There exists complexly comprehensive effect between the substituents on the phenyl ring and the alkyl group in the alcohol moiety on the activity. Thus, cinnamic acid esters showed great potential the development of new antifungal agents for plant protection due to high activity, natural compounds or natural compound framework, simple structure, easy preparation, low-cost and environmentally friendly.
Hydrogen Peroxide Promoted Mizoroki-Heck Reactions of Phenyldiazenes with Acrylates, Acrylamides, and Styrenes

Mizoroki-Heck reactions, which are well-known for aryldiazonium salts and which have recently been described for arylhydrazines, have now been extended to phenyldiazenes. In situ generation of phenyldiazenes from azocarboxylates allowed clean and selective reactions with styrenes, acrylates, and acrylamides using palladium(II) acetate in the presence of silver(I) acetate or hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. Hydrogen peroxide was thereby shown to be a cheap and broadly applicable alternative for the established palladium-silver(I) system.
