In 1956, Elvidge and coworkers investigated the synthesis of a series of isoindoline compounds derived from phthalonitrile. They produced a series of secondary amine-modified isoindolines known as the imino(dialkylamino)isoindolines, and in this report, we revisit this chemistry. In addition to confirming the previously observed reactivity, we structurally characterized three examples and observed a double bond character between the isoindoline carbon atom and the secondary nitrogen atom position. This results in a rotational barrier about this bond, which we observed by NMR spectroscopy and probed using computational methods. The barriers are comparable to those seen in bis-substituted amides.more » « less

Metal-free, magnesium, titanyl, and vanadyl tetrapyrazinoporphyrazines substituted with eight 2,6-diisopropylphenoxy groups at the peripheral positions were prepared and characterized by NMR, UV-Vis, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), and mass spectrometry methods. In addition, the Pc(2,6iPrPhO)8VO complex was characterized by EPR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Reaction between TiCl4with 4,5-(2,6-diisopropylphenoxy)phthalonitrile in N,N-dimethylaminoethanol resulted in the formation of a red open-chain trimer, which was characterized by mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. Electronic structures of new compounds and their excited state properties were probed by Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Time-Dependent DFT (TDDFT) methods.more » « less
