Synthesis, Properties, and Redox Behavior of Tetracyanobutadiene and Dicyanoquinodimethane Chromophores Bearing Two Azulenyl Substituents

Abstract: Acetylene derivatives with an azulenyl group at both terminals have been prepared by palladium-catalyzed alkynylation under Sonogashira-Hagihara conditions. These alkynes reacted with tetracyanoethylene and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane in a formal [2 + 2] cycloaddition-retroelectrocyclization reaction to afford the corresponding new tetracyanobutadienes (TCBDs) and dicyanoquinodimethanes (DCNQs), respectively, in excellent yields. Intramolecular CT absorption bands were found in the UV-vis spectra of the n… Show more

“…Te trathiafulvalene (TTF) and extended TTF derivatives showed as imilar activity to monothiophene.H eating to reflux in 1,2-dichloroethane was necessary for the reaction to proceed, and the TCBD products were obtained in moderate yields (Table 1, entries 8a nd 9). [26,27] In particular, azulene derivatives showed av ery high activity,similar to the p-N,N-dialkylanilino donors.Thus, as eries of linear and branched oligo(ethynylazulene)s were prepared as precursors and their TCBD products synthesized in very high yields (Table 1, entries 10 and 11). [26,27] In particular, azulene derivatives showed av ery high activity,similar to the p-N,N-dialkylanilino donors.Thus, as eries of linear and branched oligo(ethynylazulene)s were prepared as precursors and their TCBD products synthesized in very high yields (Table 1, entries 10 and 11).…”

“…[55] The absorption band of 46 was ascribed to the quinoid resonance structure in the azulene moiety [43] in conjugation with the 2amino group, similar to that of TCBDs 22 and 28.

“…Bis(TCBD) 20 with two 2‐aminoazulene moieties, showed a strong absorption band at λ max =500 nm (Figure 6). Although the absorption maxima of bis(TCBD)s 15 – 20 were nearly equal to that of the corresponding mono‐TCBD derivatives 25 – 30 (Figure 7),12 the extinction coefficients show an increasing trend as the number of TCBD units. These effects exhibit an overlap of ICT arising from the resonance effect between the central 1,3‐azulendiyl core and two TCBD units as shown in Scheme .…”

“…25 From our previous study, 2‐ or 6‐azulenyl groups connected by π‐electron systems induce electrochromic properties with high reversibility, owing to the generation of stabilized anionic species 26. Moreover, electrochromic properties of the azulene‐substituted TCBD derivatives substituted by 1‐azulenyl groups with 2‐ or 6‐azulenyl substituents exhibited color changes with higher reversibility, attributable to the formation of the stabilized anionic species during the electrochemical reduction 12. Similar to the derivatives, alkynes 9 – 14 and bis(TCBD)s 15 – 20 might exemplify a new class of electrochromic materials with multiple electron transfer.…”
