1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran is a highly reactive diene that can also trap unstable and short-lived dienophiles in a Diels-Alder reaction and is used as a standard reagent for the determination of singlet oxygen - also in biological systems.

Cycloadditions with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran with subsequent elimination of oxygen open up access to a large number of polyaromatics .

Occurrence and representation

The first synthesis of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran was reported in 1905 by A. Guyot and J. Catel. The reaction of phenylmagnesium bromide with 3-phenylphthalide (e.g. from the methyl ester of 3-hydroxyphthalide with phenylboronic acid in 95% yield) results in a lactol which, with mineral acids , gives 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran in 87% yield with dehydration.

In the patent literature, the preparation of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran by [4 + 2] cycloaddition of 1,3-butadiene and dibenzoylethylene (1,4-diphenyl-2-buten-1,4-dione, from fumaroyl chloride and benzene in Presence of aluminum chloride ). The dibenzoylethylene, which is predominantly in the trans configuration, is converted into the cis configuration required for addition when heated .

The 4,5-dibenzoylcyclohexene formed is cyclized with acetic anhydride to give dihydroisobenzofuran, which in turn is opened to 1,2-dibenzoylbenzene by addition of bromine and hydrogen bromide elimination and is cyclized with zinc - acetic acid to give the end product 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran. A publication from 1940 describes high yields at the individual stages of the long reaction sequence.

Phthaloyl chloride is a much cheaper starting material for 1,2-dibenzoylbenzene by Friedel-Crafts acylation with benzene, which is reduced to 1,3-DPBF in 78% yield by potassium borohydride .

or from salicylaldehydes via phenacylhydrazones, the oxidation of which with lead (IV) acetate to ortho -diketones and subsequent reaction with an aryl Grignard compound are obtained.

properties

1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran is a yellow, light- and air-sensitive, crystalline and soluble in many organic solvents with a maximum absorption in solution around 420 nm, which produces an intense fluorescence. Because of the stability of 1,3-DPBF in DMF and DMSO fluorescence measurements can be carried out in these solvents, while the dissolved isobenzofuran even in the absence of oxygen in CHCl 3 and CCl 4 quickly by attack of CHCl 2 - or CCl 3 - radicals photolyzed becomes.

1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran forms an orange-yellow, fluorescent solution in ethanol which, when irradiated in the absence of oxygen, turns into a colorless, non-fluorescent solution through the formation of a colorless crystal-forming photodimer.

use

Reagent for the determination of singlet oxygen

In the presence of methylene blue irradiated with red laser light , 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran reacts with singlet oxygen 1 O 2 formed as an intermediate to form an unstable peroxide, which breaks down into (colorless) 1,2-dibenzoylbenzene.

1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran reaction with singlet oxygen

The detection of singlet oxygen by 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran is based on this reaction, also in biological systems. For this purpose, water-soluble derivatives of 1,3-DPBF have also been developed as 1 O 2 scavengers.

Dienophile in Diels-Alder reactions

Isobenzofurans, such as 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran, are among the most reactive Diels-Alder dienes currently known and are suitable for trapping short-lived and unstable olefins and alkynes. The working group around Georg Wittig made important contributions to this.

1,3-DPBF reacts with the less stable cyclohexine to form a tricyclic adduct which, after hydrogenation and elimination of hydrogen, forms a 9,10-diphenylcyclohexenonaphthalene.

With aryne (dehydrobenzene), an oxygen-bridged anthracene is produced analogously in 85% yield, which can be reduced with zinc to 9,10-diphenylanthracene (88% yield).

The cyclopropenone , which is unstable at temperatures above its melting point (−29 ° C), reacts quantitatively with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran at room temperature to form a Diels-Alder adduct,) which is exclusively present as an exo isomer.

Dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate as a dienophile reacts with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran in 84% yield to form the corresponding adduct.

Also with heterocyclic dienophiles, such as. B. 3-sulfolene forms 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran the corresponding Diels-Alder adduct.

Molecular building block for the construction of polyaromatics

Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are of great interest in their properties as precursors for graphite , but especially as environmental pollutants with pronounced persistence and carcinogenicity . 1,3-DPBF also reacts quantitatively with acenaphthylene when heated to 160 ° C to form 7,12-diphenylbenzo [ k ] fluoranthene.

The twofold Diels-Alder reaction of 1,3-DPBF with p-benzoquinone gives practically quantitatively an adduct which with p-toluenesulfonic acid gives a pentacene derivative in 49% yield .
