Transition-metal-free three-component coupling approach to QUINAP derivatives.

The aluminum(III) triflate catalyzed three-component coupling reaction of alkynes, amines and phosphorylated aryl aldehydes to access phosphoryl quinoline derivatives has been developed. The reaction proceeds in a simple system without the use of transition metals, ligands or additives, thus making it attractive for the fast preparation of a variety of new potential N-P bidentate ligands.

Dichloridobis[ethyl 2-(2-amino-1,3-thia-zol-4-yl)acetate-κ(2)O,N(3)]cadmium.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [CdCl(2)(C(7)H(10)N(2)O(2)S)(2)], contains two complex molecules with similar configurations. The Cd(II) atoms are each six-coordinated by two thiazole N and two carbonyl O atoms from the 2-(2-amino-1,3-thiazol-4-yl)acetate ligand, and by two Cl(-) anions in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. In the crystal, intra- and inter-molecular N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds create parallel chains along [1-10]. C-H⋯Cl inter-actions also occur.

cis-Aqua-bis(2,4-dichloro-6-formyl-phenolato-κO,O')(N,N-dimethyl-formamide-κO)nickel(II).

In the title compound, [Ni(C(7)H(3)Cl(2)O(2))(2)(C(3)H(7)NO)(H(2)O)], the Ni(II) ion is coordinated by four O atoms from two bidentate 2,4-dichloro-6-formyl-phenolate ligands, one O atom from a water ligand and one O atom from a dimethyl-formamide ligand in a slightly distorted octa-hedral environment. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetric dimers are formed though O-H⋯O and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds; π-π stacking inter-actions, with a centroid-centroid distance of 3.796 (2) Å, are also found.
