The Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Arylated Tetrathiafulvalenes Extended with an Anthraquinoid Spacer via Pd-Catalyzed C–H Arylation

Abstract

We synthesized diarylated 10-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)anthracene-9-(10H)-one derivatives, which serve as important precursors of unsymmetrical arylated TTFAQs, via the palladium-catalyzed direct C–H arylation. Unsymmetrical diarylated TTFAQs were synthesized by the Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction using diarylated 10-(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)anthracene-9-(10H)-one as the starting materials. Additionally, we have successfully synthesized unsymmetrical tetraarylated TTFAQs by a second palladium-catalyzed C–H arylation of diarylated TTFAQs.

Key words

tetrathiafulvalene - extended TTF - anthraquinoid spacer - unsymmetrical arylated compounds - palladium-catalyzed direct C–H arylation - X-ray structure analysis - redox behavior

• 14 Synthesis of unsymmetrical arylated TTFs via a selective magnesiation of 1,3-dithiole-2-thiones using TMPMgCl·LiCl (Scheme S2) was also reported; however, this method is difficult to apply the synthesis of unsymmetrical arylated TTFAQs because of the competitive homocoupling of 1,3-dithiole-2-thiones.
