This thesis concerns (i) the synthesis and olfactory characterisation of silicon-containing analogues of the musk odourant phantolide, (ii) the synthesis and pharmacological investigation of silicon-containing analogues of retinoids of the EC23 and TTNN type and (iii) the attempted syntheses of silicon-containing analogues of the antipsychotic penfluridol and the antidiarrhoeal agent loperamide. All target compounds and intermediates were characterised by multinuclear NMR studies (1H, 13C, 15N, 19F, 29Si) and elemental analyses or high-resolution mass spectrometry. Additionally, some of these compounds were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
The present work describes the synthesis of sila-venlafaxine, disila-bexarotene, disila-AG-045572 (disila-CMPD1), a series of silicon-based allosteric modulators of muscarinic receptors, and a partial synthesis of sila-gabapentin. Crystal structure data of rac-sila-venlafaxine hydrochloride, (R)-sila-venlafaxine hydrobromide, bexarotene, disila-bexarotene, and disila-AG-045572 (disila-CMPD1) are included. Studies on the biological activities of sila-venlafaxine and of silicon-based allosteric modulators of muscarinic receptors are discussed. The Si-2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl (Si-2,4,6-TMOP) moiety is described as a novel, acid-labile protecting group in organosilicon chemistry. The synthesis of chlorotris(chloromethyl)silane and tris(chloromethyl)methoxysilane is described.
The main aim of this thesis was the synthesis and structural characterization of penta and hexacoordinate silicon(IV) complexes. In the course of these studies, the neutral pentacoordinate silicon(IV) complexes 38, 39, 43−48, 54 and 55 were prepared. Furthermore, the neutral hexacoordinate silicon(IV) complexes 33−36, 49, 50, 52, 53, 56−62, 63, 64 and 65 were synthesized. All compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, NMR spectroscopy in solution (1H, 13C, 15N, 29Si) and in the solid-state (13C, 15N, 29Si VACP/MAS NMR), as well as single-crystal X-ray diffraction (except 45, 47−49, 52, 53 and 63).
