Epoxy compounds usually have stronger nucleophilic ability, because the alkyl group on the oxygen atom makes the bond angle smaller, which makes the lone pair of electrons react more dissimilarly with the electron-deficient system. Compound: 1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene, is researched, Molecular C21H24N2, CAS is 141556-42-5, about Highly Stable 1,2-Dicarbonyl Radical Cations Derived from N-Heterocyclic Carbenes.Safety of 1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene.
Stable organic radicals have been of great academic interest not only in the context of fundamental understanding of reactive intermediates but also because of their numerous applications as functional materials. Apart from the early examples of triphenylmethyl and TEMPO derivatives, reports on air- and water-stable organic radicals are scarce, and their development remains a challenge. Herein, we present the design and synthesis of a novel organic radical based on a 1,2-dicarbonyl scaffold supported by N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). The presented radical cations exhibit remarkable stability toward various harsh conditions, such as the presence of reactive chems. (reductants, oxidants, strong acids, and bases) or high temperatures, by far exceeding the stability of triphenylmethyl and TEMPO radicals. In addition, physiol. conditions including aqueous buffer and blood serum are tolerated. The steric and electronic stabilization provided by the two NHC moieties enabled the successful design of the highly stable radical.
There is still a lot of research devoted to this compound(SMILES:CC1=CC(C)=CC(C)=C1[N+]2=[C-]N(C3=C(C)C=C(C)C=C3C)C=C2)Safety of 1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-ylidene, and with the development of science, more effects of this compound(141556-42-5) can be discovered.
