1 UIVESITY F PAIA FMATI F 2,3-DIHYD-2,2,2-TIPHEYLPHEATH[9,10-d]- 1,3,2λ 5 -XAZAPHSPHLES AD THEI EACTIS WITH CAB DIXIDE AD DIXYGE Theses of the doctoral (Ph.D) dissertation by: István Bors M.Ed in Chemistry and Environmental studies Supervisor: Dr. Gábor Speier Professor Emeritus, D.Sc Doctoral School in Chemistry and Environmental Sciences Institute of Chemistry Department of rganic Chemistry Veszprém 2015

2 ABSTACT This work presents the formation of 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenylphenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphosphole and its 2,7-derivative via [4+1] cycloaddition of triphenylphosphane and the corresponding phenanthrenequinone monoimine. This compound can react at ambient conditions with perhaps the two most important small-molecules, dioxygen and carbon-dioxide. The work of the thesis investigates the formation of the above mentioned compound and its reactions with 2 and C 2. The product of the cheletropic reaction was found as catalyst for the biomimetic oxidation triphenylphosphane to its oxide and the reaction mechanism seems to be very similar to the flavoprotein monooxygenases. Various structural methods (I, UV-vis, X-ray crystallography, M, GC-MS, CV) were used to characterize the products and the intermediates. Detailed kinetic investigation of the reactions have been performed and the three mentioned mechanisms were proposed.

3 Theses of the dissertation 1. I have ascertained, by synthetic method, that 2-amino and 2-dimethylaminophenanthrenequinone do not react even at reflux temperature with atmospheric pressure H 3 by addition-elimination reaction. The experiments were supported by cyclic voltammetry. 2. The existence of radical intermediates by the formation of 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2- triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphospholes was confirmed using ES and UV-vis spectroscopy. The unique role of the hydrogen of the imine was approved by indirect experiments. A mathematical model was developed from proposed mechanism and was used to determine the numerical values of the kinetic parameters.

The proposed mechanism of reaction between 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenylphenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphospholes and triphenylphosphine (K = exp(55566/t)±3.6; k 2 = exp(-1268/t)± / mm -1 h -1 ; k 3 = exp(-33585/t)± / h -1 )

4 3. I have ascertained, when 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 - oxazaphosphole react with dioxygen, a reactive intermediate is formed, which is able to oxygenate. Based on ES spectroscopy experiments, reversible equilibrium was upheld between the reactive intermediate and oxazaphospholyl radical. The existence of intermediates was supposed by liquid phase infrared spectroscopy and iodometry. The appearance of intermediates was verified by indirect experimental methods (Triethylamine catalysis, reaction between potassium superoxide and 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]- 1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphosphole and between triphenylphosphine and 9,10- phenanthrenequinone monoxime). 4. The kinetic parameters were described in the oxygenation reaction of by using catalytic amounts of 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 - oxazaphosphole. (TFigure 2.) H -H H -PPh PPh 3 3 H + - H TFigure 2. Proposed biomimetic mechanism for the triphenylphosphine oxygenation (k 3 = 0.391±0.008 M -2 s -1 ) 5. The catalytic oxygenation of with dioxygen in the presence of 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphosphole bears flavoprotein monooxygenase functional enzyme mimic.

5 6. Analysing the product of the isotope labeled experiment with I and MS between 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenyl-phenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphosphole and carbon dioxide at ambient conditions, carbon dioxide was verified as oxygen source. Detailed kinetic investigation of the reaction have been performed and based on the experimental data the mechanism was proposed. (TFigure 3.) - + C - -H + H + H H = H, t-bu TFigure 3. Proposed reaction mechanism between carbon dioxide and 2,3-dihydro-2,2,2-triphenylphenanthro[9,10-d]-1,3,2λ 5 -oxazaphosphole (k 2 = M -1 s -1 ) 7. A new synthetic route to a known compound (phenantro[9,10-d][1,3]oxazol- 2(3H)-one) was described with an environmentally friendly method. An unknown derivate of this compound (2,7-di-tert-butyl-phenantro[9,10- d][1,3]oxazol-2(3h)-one) was also described via the developed route.
