5,11-Diazadibenzo[hi,qr]tetracene: Synthesis, Properties, and Reactivity toward Nucleophilic Reagents.
2021
5,11-Diazadibenzo[ hi , qr ]tetracene was synthesized as a new nitrogen-substituted polycyclic heteroaromatic compound through Pd-catalyzed cycloisomerization of an alkyne precursor followed by oxidative cyclization with bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene. The substitution of imine-type nitrogen atoms significantly enhanced the electron-accepting character and facilitated the direct nucleophilic addition of arylamines under strongly basic conditions to afford the desired amino-substituted products. The introduction of amino groups induced a remarkable red-shift in their absorption spectra; the tetrasubstituted product exhibited intense near-infrared absorbing property. Furthermore, the π-electronic system, which includes a redox-active 1,4-diazabutadiene moiety, underwent reversible interconversion to its corresponding reduced form upon reduction with NaBH 4 and aerobic oxidation.
