TL;DR: In this paper, the anti rotamers of Mo(CHCMe2Ph)(NAr)OCMe(CF3)2 complexes were determined by NMR methods.
Abstract: : Anti rotamers of Mo(CHCMe2Ph)(NAr)(OR)2 complexes (Ar = 2,6-C6H3-i- Pr2; OR = OCMe2(CF3), OCMe(CF3)2, and OC(CF3)2(CF2CF2CF3)) can be generated at -80 deg in toluene by photolysis at 366 nm and the rate of conversion of anti to syn rotamers determined by NMR methods. At equilibrium the anti rotamers can be observed by high field proton NMR at 25 deg after many transients and values for Keq(syn/anti) thereby determined. Keq can be determined at O deg when OR = OCMe3 and k anti/syn estimated. The rate of conversion of the anti to the syn rotamer in toluene is found to vary by at least five orders of magnitude as the alkoxide is changed from t-butoxide to OC(CF3)2(CF2CF2CF3). The results in THF are analogous, although the rates of rotamer interconversion are much slower for any given alkoxide. Addition of 2,3-bis(trifluoromethyl)norbornadiene to mixtures containing both anti and syn Mo(CHCMe2Ph)(NAr)OCMe(CF3)2)2 showed that in both toluene and THF the anti rotamer was orders of magnitude more reactive than the syn rotamer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the azine diphosphine Z,Z-PPh2CH2C(But)N-N-But)CCH2PPh21 was treated with H2O2 and with monoclinic sulfur to give the diphophosphine disulfide 2b.
Abstract: Treatment of the azine MeC(But)NNC(But)Me with 2 equivalents of LiBun, followed by 2 equivalents of PPh2Cl, gives the azine diphosphine Z,Z-PPh2CH2C(But)N–N(But)CCH2PPh21. This new diphosphine was treated with H2O2 to give the corresponding diphosphine dioxide 2a and with monoclinic sulfur to give the diphosphine disulfide 2b. Treatment of [M(CO)3(η6-cht)](cht = cyclohepta-2,4,6-triene) with 1 gave the metal tricarbonyl fac-[[graphic omitted]Ph2}](M = Mo, 3a; W, 3b; or Cr, 3c) in which the azine diphosphine is bonded in the E,Z configuration. Complexes 3a and 3b were also made by treating the corresponding metal hexacarbonyls with the azine diphosphine 1. Treatment of [M(CO)4(nbd)](M = Mo, W, or Cr; nbd = norbornadiene) with 1 gave the tetracarbonyl complexes [[graphic omitted]Ph2}]4 with the E,Z-azine diphosphine acting as a bidentate ligand. On heating, these tetracarbonyl complexes 4 were converted into the tricarbonyl complexes 3. Treatment of either 3a or 4a with 1 mol equivalent of bromine gave the neutral molybdenum(II) complex [[graphic omitted]Ph2}]5, whereas the tungsten complexes 3b and 4b with bromine gave the cation [[graphic omitted]Ph2}]+ isolated as its BPh4– salt 6.

TL;DR: The photochemical valence isomerization of pendant norbornadiene (NBD) to the quadricyclane (QC) moiety in poly(4-(chloromethyl)-styrene] with their corresponding potassium salts was described in this paper.
Abstract: Polymers having a pendant 3[(p-substituted phenyl)carbamoyl]-2,5-norbornadiene-2-carboxylate moiety were prepared by the reaction of poly(4-(chloromethyl)-styrene] with their corresponding potassium salts. The photochemical valence isomerization of pendant norbornadiene (NBD) to the quadricyclane (QC) moiety proceeded smoothly in the film state or polymer solution upon irradiation by sunlight. The rate of isomerization was strongly affected by the nature of the substituent. The resulting QC groups in the polymer film scarcely reverted to the original NBD without any catalyst if it were kept in dark at room temperature for a long time.

TL;DR: In this article, metal-promoted valence isomerization and cycloreversions occur in the gas phase for adducts of norbornadiene and quadricyclane (Q) with either Fe(I) or Cu(I).
Abstract: Metal-promoted valence isomerizations and cycloreversions occur in the gas phase for adducts of norbornadiene (NBD) and quadricyclane (Q) with either Fe(I) or Cu(I). The collisionally activated decomposition (CAD) spectra of the adducts of NBD and Q with each metal indicate that the complexes possess identical structures, although the structures that are formed with Fe(I) are different from those with Cu(I).

TL;DR: In this paper, a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) excited state is used for electron transfer photochemistry starting from a TICT excited state, using N-(α-naphthyl)carbazole (NC) as sensitizer.
Abstract: Electron transfer photochemistry starting from a twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) excited state is shown, using N-(α-naphthyl)carbazole (NC) as sensitizer. The NC TICT state has been used as electron donor and acceptor. This dual reactivity is demonstrated by fluorescence quenching measurements, and the rate constants have been correlated with the help of the Marcus equation. Photochemical reactions have also been performed. Photoisomerization of the quadricyclane into norbornadiene is proof of the radical cationic reactivity of the quadricyclane into norbornadiene is proof of the radical cationic reactivity of the TICT, while photodechlorination of pentachlorobenzene is proof of radical anionic reactivity. A triplet sensitized ring closure of norbornadiene was also shown to occur.

TL;DR: In this article, multifunctional polymeric photosensitizers were prepared by partial substitution reaction of poly(p-(chloromethyl)styrene) or insoluble chloromethelated polystyrene bead with potassium 4-nitro-1-naphtaxide or 4nitrophenoxide using a phase transfer catalyst.
