Bis(trifluoromethyl)methylene Addition to Vinyl-Terminated SAMs: A Gas-Phase C–C Bond-Forming Reaction on a Surface
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vinyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on silicon oxide substrates were chemically modified by the addition of a bis(trifluoromethyl)methylene group in a rare gas-phase C-C bond-forming reaction to directly generate films carrying terminal CF3 groups. The vinyl-terminated films were treated with hexafluoroacetone azine (HFAA) for modification. The films were characterized with ellipsometry, contact angle measurements, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In this study, we find that for optimized conditions clean reactions occur on a surface between SAMs with terminal olefins and HFAA, and the product is consistent with bis(trifluoromethyl)cyclopropanation formation after nitrogen extrusion.

Organic chemistry on surfaces: Direct cyclopropanation by dihalocarbene addition to vinyl terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs)
C11-Vinyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on silica surfaces are successfully modified in C-C bond forming reactions with dihalocarbenes to generate SAMs, terminated with dihalo- (fluoro, chloro, bromo) cyclopropane motifs with about 30% surface coverage.
متن کاملThe reaction mechanism of Claisen rearrangement obtained by transition state spectroscopy and single direct-dynamics trajectory.
Chemical bond breaking and formation during chemical reactions can be observed using "transition state spectroscopy". Comparing the measurement result of the transition state spectroscopy with the simulation result of single direct-dynamics trajectory, we have elucidated the reaction dynamics of Claisen rearrangement of allyl vinyl ether. Observed the reaction of the neat sample liquid, we have...
متن کاملCan cyclopropyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers on gold be used to mimic the surface of polyethylene?
This paper describes the formation of a new series of monolayer films generated by the self-assembly of omega-cyclopropylalkanethiols, CyPr(CH(2))(n)SH (n = 9-13), onto the surface of gold. Procedures used to prepare the omega-cyclopropylalkanethiol adsorbates are also reported. Methyl-, vinyl-, and isopropyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) were also prepared and used as reference f...
متن کاملLoosely packed hydroxyl-terminated SAMs on gold.
We report the preparation of loosely packed hydroxyl-terminated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold by the adsorption of bis(11,11'-dithioundecyl)perfluoroheptanoate and base-mediated cleavage of the fluorocarbon terminal group. As shown through complementary characterization methods, the partially fluorinated SAM exhibits a structure in which the outer surface contains mostly -CF(3) group...
متن کاملInversion versus retention of configuration for nucleophilic substitution at vinylic carbon.
A high-level computational study using CCSD, CCSD(T), and G2(+) levels of theory has shown that unactivated vinyl substrates such as vinyl chloride would afford gas phase, single-step halide exchange by a pure in-plane sigma-approach of the nucleophile to the backside of the C--Cl sigma bond. Geometry optimization by CCSD/6-31+G* and CCSD(T)/6-31+G* confirms the earlier findings of Glukhovtsev,...
