Il progetto di tesi specialistica svolto durante questo anno accademico si è suddiviso in due parti: un primo periodo, da settembre 2010 a gennaio 2011, presso il dipartimento di Chimica Organica “A. Mangini” della Facoltà di Chimica Industriale dell’Università di Bologna e un secondo periodo in Spagna, da marzo ad agosto 2011, presso la Unitat de Química Farmacèutica de la Facultat de Farmàcia de la Universitat de Barcelona. Nel primo periodo a Bologna mi sono occupato della sintesi di 4-bromo-pirazoli da utilizzare come precursori di composti eterociclici condensati. Inizialmente è stato sintetizzato un pirazolo 1,3,5-trisostituito tramite cicloaddizione 1,3-dipolare tra un acetilene e una nitril immina generata in situ da un idrazonoil cloruro. Il pirazolo è stato poi bromurato facendo uno screening di diversi agenti bromuranti e condizioni di reazione per ottenere la migliore resa e chemoselettività. Infine è stata studiata la ciclizzazione intramolecolare del prodotto bromurato tramite reazione di cross-coupling catalizzata da metalli di transizione. Nel secondo periodo a Barcellona mi sono occupato della sintesi di dicarbossimmidi tricicliche con struttura a gabbia con il fine di creare alcheni altamente piramidalizzati e di studiarne la dimerizzazione ad un derivato del dodecaedrano. La strategia sintetica è stata impostata utilizzando come reagente di partenza una semplice succinimmide per giungere, dopo numerosi passaggi, al precursore del prodotto triciclico, del quale è stata studiata la ciclizzazione tramite reazione Diels-Alder intramolecolare.

The present work is part of a larger project aimed at obtaining compounds of industrial interest from renewable sources. The work is particularly aimed to investigate the reactivity of 2,5-bis-hydroxymethylfuran (BHMF), an important building block of organic nature easily obtainable from biomass, with acid catalysis. Through the study of the reactivity of BHMF in water, in the presence of an heterogeneous acid catalyst (Amberlyst 15), has been developed a new synthetic method for the preparation of α-6-hydroxy-6-methyl-4-enyl-2H-pyran-3-one a derivative whose molecular skeleton is similar to that of natural products which are used in pharmaceutical chemistry. The product is obtained in milder conditions and with better selectivity with respect to the strongly oxidizing conditions with which it is prepared in the literature starting from different precursors containing furan ring.

In the modern society, light is mostly powered by electricity which lead to a significant increase of the global energy consumption. In order to reduce it, different kinds of electric lamps have been developed over the years; it is now accepted that phosphorescence-based OLEDs offer many advantages over existing light technologies. Iridium complexes are considered excellent candidates for bright materials by virtue of the possibility to easily tune the wavelength of the emitted radiation, by appropriate modifications of the nature of the ligands. It is important to note that the synthesis of Ir(III) blue-emitting complexes is a very challenging goal, because of wide HOMO-LUMO gaps needed for produce a deep blue emission. During my thesis I planned the synthesis of two different series of new Ir(III) heteroleptic complexes, the C and the N series, using cyclometalating ligands containing an increasing number of nitrogens in inverse and regular position. I successfully performed in the synthesis of the required four ligands, i.e. 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1H-imidazole (2), 4-phenyl-1-methyl-1,2,3-triazole (3), 1-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole (6) and 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazole (7), that differ in the number of nitrogens present in the heterocyclic ring and in the position of the phenyl ring. Therefore the cyclometalation of the obtained ligands to get the corresponding Ir(III)-complexes was attempted. I succeeded in the synthesis of two Ir(III)-complexes of the C series, and I carried out various attempts to set up the appropriate reaction conditions to get the remaining desired derivatives. The work is still in progress, and once all the desired complexes will be synthesized and characterized, a correlation between their structure and their emitting properties could be formulated analysing and comparing the photophysical data of the real compounds.
