1,2‐Bis‐Triazenylarenes Enable Vicinal Sandmeyer‐Type Reactions

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Anastasia Gitlina, Christeena Mathew

The introduction of two nucleophiles in the vicinal position of arenes via Sandmeyer‐type reactions is compromised by the problematic diazotization of ortho‐diaminoarenes. Herein, it is shown that vicinal substitution reactions are facilitated by the use ...

Investigations about the Chemistry of Tetraarylethene- and Iridium-Based Luminophores

Anastasia Gitlina

The work described in this thesis focuses on two classes of luminophores: tetraarylethene-based polymers and Ir(III) complexes with orthometalated ligands. Tetraarylethene-based polymers show aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and they are of interest for ...

The acid-mediated isomerization of iridium(iii) complexes with cyclometalated NHC ligands: kinetic vs. thermodynamic control

Kay Severin, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Anastasia Gitlina

The isomerization of iridium(III) complexes with metalated N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands was studied. The fac isomers of complexes with 1-phenyl-3-methylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene or 1-phenyl-3-benzylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene ligands are transformed cl ...

Synthesis of hyperbranched polyarylethenes by consecutive C–H vinylation reactions

Kay Severin, Albert Ruggi, Anastasia Gitlina

A novel procedure for the synthesis of polyarylethenes is described. Consecutive C–H vinylation reactions of tetraphenylethene with a triphenylethenyl triazene give hyperbranched polyarylethenes of variable sizes. The vinylation reactions are mediated by a ...

Head‐to‐Tail Dimerization of N‐Heterocyclic Diazoolefins

Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Kay Severin, Rosario Scopelliti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Paul Varava, Zhaowen Dong, Anastasia Gitlina, Wolfram Feuerstein, Tak Hin Wong

The head-to-tail dimerization of N-heterocyclic diazoolefins is described. The products of these formal (3+3) cycloaddition reactions are strongly reducing quinoidal tetrazines. Oxidation of the tetrazines occurs in a stepwise fashion, and we were able to ...

Organometallic Ir(iii) complexes: post-synthetic modification, photophysical properties and binuclear complex construction

Anastasia Gitlina

Two methods of post-synthetic modification (Suzuki coupling and CuAAC click-reaction) were applied to Ir(iii) complexes Ir((CN)-N-)(2)(NN)-N- to provide the second highly selective donor site. One family of functionalized complexes was used to d ...

X/Y platinum(II) complexes: some features of supramolecular assembly via halogen bonding

Anastasia Gitlina

Four series of new luminescent cyclometalated complexes [Pt(C^N)(IPy)Y] (HC^N = 2-phenylpyridine (Hppy), 2-(1-benzofuran-3-yl)pyridine (Hbfpy), methyl-2-phenylquinoline-4-carboxylate (Hmpqc), 2-(1-benzothiophen-3-yl)pyridine (Hbtpy), IPy = 4-iodopyridine, ...

Acid-base-induced fac → mer isomerization of luminescent iridium(iii) complexes

Kay Severin, Albert Ruggi, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Carolina Luciana Plaice, Anastasia Gitlina

Luminescent Ir(C^N)3 complexes (C^N = cyclometalated arylpyridine ligand) exist in the form of two stable isomers with distinct photophysical and electrochemical properties: fac and mer. Herein, we show that fac-Ir(C^N)3 complexes can be converted into the ...

Just Add the Gold: Aggregation-Induced-Emission Properties of Alkynylphosphinegold(I) Complexes Functionalized with Phenylene-Terpyridine Subunits

Anastasia Gitlina

A series of organometallic complexes containing an alkynylphosphinegold(I) fragment and a phenylene-terpyridine moiety connected together by flexible linker have been prepared using the specially designed terpyridine ligands. The compounds were studied cry ...
