Perfluorinated Trialkoxysilanol with Dramatically Increased Brønsted Acidity

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2021

The Brønsted acidity of the perfluorinated trialkoxysilanol {(F 3 C) 3 CO} 3 SiOH is more than 13 orders of magnitude higher than that of orthosilicic acid, Si(OH) 4 , and even more for most previously known silanols. It is easily deprotonated by simple amines and pyridines to give the conjugate silanolates [OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] À , which possess extremely short SiÀ O bonds, comparable to those of silanones. Orthosilicic acid, Si(OH) 4 , is a very weak Brønsted acid. [1] The same holds true for organosilanols, R n Si(OH) 4-n , and alkoxysilanols, (RO) n Si(OH) 4-n (n = 1-3; R = alkyl, aryl), which can be regarded as organic derivatives or partial esters of Si(OH) 4. [2] Like orthosilicic acid, most small organosilanols and alkoxysilanols are sensitive towards self-condensation to give siloxanes and silica consisting of 2D or 3D networks of Si-OÀ Si linkages, which is of technical relevance for the curing of silicone resins and the sol-gel process. [3] The self-condensation is accelerated by heat as well as traces of acid and base. However, selfcondensation can be prevented by the judicious choice of mild reaction conditions and bulky substituents R, which allows the preparation of kinetically stabilized silanols that can be used for synthetic purposes, such as the preparation of well-defined metallasiloxanes containing SiÀ OÀ M linkages. [4] A prominent example is (t-BuO) 3 SiOH, which reacts with a variety of metals to give rise to thermolytic molecular precursors (TMPs) that upon heating produce multicomponent oxide materials, not accessible by the sol-gel process. [5] We have now set out to prepare a perfluorinated derivative of (t-BuO) 3 SiOH, which was achieved by two simple synthetic steps starting from commercially available starting materials. Thus, the reaction of SiCl 4 with three equivalents of NaOC(CF 3) 3 afforded {(F 3 C) 3 CO} 3 SiCl (1), the hydrolysis of which gave the silanol {(F 3 C) 3 CO} 3 SiOH (2) as low-melting crystals (Scheme 1). [6] The key feature in the crystal structure of 2 is the isolated silanol group, which, unlike that of the parent (t-BuO) 3 SiOH, [7] is not involved in hydrogen bonding (Figure 1). [8] Due to the high charge separation in 2 associated with the large number of fluorine atoms, it possesses a dramatically increased Brønsted acidity, compared to orthosilicic acid Si(OH) 4 and all previously known silanol species (see below). [9] For this reason, 2 can be readily deprotonated by weak and strong bases. Thus, the reaction of 2 with triethylamine, pyridine, lutidine andnbutyllithium provided the silanolates [Et 3 NH][OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] (3), [C 5 H 5 NH][OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] (4), [2,6-Me 2 C 5 H 3 NH][OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] (5) and [Li(C 6 H 4 F 2)OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] 2 (6) that were isolated as crystalline solids (Scheme 2 and Figure 1). [6] The deprotonation of silanols by simple amines and pyridines is unprecedented. [10] Usually, Si(OH) 4 [11] and all silanols are only known to form hydrogen-bonded complexes of the type OÀ H•••N, [12] which, for instance, has been utilized to buildup extended supramolecular networks. [13] In 3 and 5, the silanolate [OSi{OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ]is associated with the triethylammonium ion, [Et 3 NH] + , and the lutidinium ion, [2,6-Me 2 C 5 H 3 NH] + , respectively, via a reverse, bipolar hydrogen bond of the type À O•••HÀ N + (Figure 1). [14] The donor-acceptor distances in 3 (2.518(2) Å) and 5 (2.512(4) Å) are indicative of strong hydrogen bonding. [12,15] This observation suggests that the silanolate [OSi {OC(CF 3) 3 } 3 ] À is still rather basic, which is in clear contrast to [a

Newly synthesized compounds were characterized by spectroscopic techniques like NMR, IR, Mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. The compounds were tested to emphasize their activity against the fungi and pathogenic strains of bacteria. The compounds bearing fluoro, cyano and difluoromethoxy groups at para position showed competitive antifungal activity, while the compounds carrying either halogen or methyl substituent at ortho position showed significant antibacterial activity.
