Colorless organometallic ionic liquids from cationic ruthenium sandwich complexes: Thermal properties, liquid properties, and crystal structures of [Ru(η5-C5H5)(η6-C6H5R)][X] (X = N(SO2CF3)2, N(SO2F)2, PF6)

A series of ionic liquids containing cationic ruthenium complexes ([Ru(C5H5)(C6H5R)]+) were prepared, and their thermal properties were investigated (R = C4H9 (1a), C8H17 (1b), OCH2OCH3 (2a), O(CH2CH2O)2CH3 (2b), O(CH2)3CN (3a), O(CH2)6CN (3b), CO(CH2)2CH3 (4a), CO(CH2)6CH3 (4b)). Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide (TFSA) and bis(fluorosulfonyl)amide (FSA) were used as counter anions. These ionic liquids were colorless and stable toward air and light. These salts exhibited glass transitions upon cooling from the melt (Tg = -82 °C to -55 °C), and the glass transition temperatures of the salts increased as the polarity of the substituents increased (alkyl cyano > carbonyl > ether. The viscosities, solvent polarities, and refractive indices of the salts of 1a and 2a were also evaluated. Hexafluorophosphate (PF6) salts were also prepared, which were solids with high melting points (Tm = 65-127 °C). X-ray crystal structure analyses of these salts revealed the importance of intermolecular contacts involving the ring hydrogens. The PF6 salt of 2a exhibited an order-disorder phase transition.

A strategy for generating alkyl radicals from aliphatic esters and lactones via sequential hydrolysis and photoinduced decarboxylation

Sequential hydrolysis and photoinduced decarboxylation of methyl aliphatic esters lead to efficient generation of alkyl radicals under mild conditions. The generated alkyl radicals react with a variety of reagents to produce addition, reduction, and substitution products. In addition, the new tin and halogen free process for alkyl radical generation is applicable to a variety of aliphatic esters including those of dipeptides, steroids, saccharides, and lactones.
