Remarkably mild and efficient intramolecular Friedel-Crafts cyclization catalyzed by In(III).

ABSTRACT: [structure: see text]. Indium(III) salts were found to be highly effective catalysts for the intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction of simple allylic bromides and arenes. In(III) salts appear to be the most general and possess unique halophilic properties as a Lewis acid for this reaction among the catalysts evaluated to date. Deactivated arenes possessing chloride, bromide, and fluoride underwent smooth reaction when activated by InCl3.

Borane-catalyzed cascade Friedel-Crafts alkylation/[1,5]-hydride transfer/Mannich cyclization to afford tetrahydroquinolines.

Project description:An unprecedented redox-neutral annulation reaction of tertiary anilines with electron-deficient alkynes was developed that proceeds through a cascade Friedel-Crafts alkylation/[1,5]-hydride transfer/Mannich cyclization sequence. Under B(C6F5)3 catalysis, a range of functionalized 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines were facilely constructed in moderate to good yields with exclusive 3,4-anti-stereochemistry. The commercial availability of the catalyst and the high atom and step economy of the procedure, together with metal-free and external oxidant-free conditions, make this an attractive method in organic synthesis.

FeCl3-Catalyzed Tandem Prins and Friedel-Crafts Cyclization: A Highly Diastereoselective Route to Polycyclic Ring Structures.

Project description:Catalytic FeCl3 in the presence of 4Å molecular sieves has been shown to effect highly diastereoselective tandem Prins and Friedel-Crafts cyclization of substituted (E/Z)-6-phenylhex-3-en-1-ol and a variety of aldehydes to provide a range of polycyclic compounds in good to excellent yields. The reaction of an enantioenriched alcohol with an aldehyde provided the cyclization product without loss of optical activity. Furthermore, a Lewis acid catalyzed ring opening resulted in functionalized tetralin derivatives with multiple chiral centers.

Electrifying Friedel-Crafts Intramolecular Alkylation toward 1,1-Disubstituted Tetrahydronaphthalenes.

Project description:In this work, we successfully employed electrochemical conditions to promote a Hofer-Moest, intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation sequence. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions, employing carboxylic acids as starting materials. Notably, the electrochemical process performed in batch was adapted to a continuous flow electrolysis apparatus to provide a significant improvement. This catalyst-free, electrochemical approach produces an array of tetrahydronaphthalenes that could be used for API synthesis.

Synthesis of six-membered spirooxindoles via a chiral Bronsted acid-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction.

Project description:By means of the direct condensation of N-aminoethylpyrroles and isatins, followed by a chiral phosphoric acid-catalyzed asymmetric intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction, a new class of valuable chiral 3',4'-dihydro-2'H-spiro[indoline-3,1'-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin]-2-ones bearing a quaternary carbon stereocenter were successfully synthesized in good to excellent yields and with moderate to good enantioselectivities under mild reaction conditions.

Diastereoselective ring opening of fully-substituted cyclopropanes via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation.

Project description:We herein disclose a diastereoselective ring opening of non-donor-acceptor cyclopropanes via an intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation en route to functionalized dihydronaphthalene scaffolds possessing quaternary carbon stereocentres. The transformation proceeds through a selective bond breaking at the most alkylated carbon centre with a pure retention of configuration. Mechanistic investigations and computational studies revealed that alkoxy functionality is the key for selective bond breaking leading to a complete retention of configuration.

Mechanochemical Friedel-Crafts acylations.

Project description:Friedel-Crafts (FC) acylation reactions were exploited in the preparation of ketone-functionalized aromatics. Environmentally more friendly, solvent-free mechanochemical reaction conditions of this industrially important reaction were developed. Reaction parameters such as FC catalyst, time, ratio of reagents and milling support were studied to establish the optimal reaction conditions. The scope of the reaction was explored by employment of different aromatic hydrocarbons in conjunction with anhydrides and acylation reagents. It was shown that certain FC-reactive aromatics could be effectively functionalized by FC acylations carried out under ball-milling conditions without the presence of a solvent. The reaction mechanism was studied by in situ Raman and ex situ IR spectroscopy.

Biocatalytic Friedel‐Crafts Reactions

Project description:Abstract Friedel‐Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions are important methodologies in synthetic and industrial chemistry for the construction of aryl‐alkyl and aryl‐acyl linkages that are ubiquitous in bioactive molecules. Nature also exploits these reactions in many biosynthetic processes. Much work has been done to expand the synthetic application of these enzymes to unnatural substrates through directed evolution. The promise of such biocatalysts is their potential to supersede inefficient and toxic chemical approaches to these reactions, with mild operating conditions ‐ the hallmark of enzymes. Complementary work has created many bio‐hybrid Friedel‐Crafts catalysts consisting of chemical catalysts anchored into biomolecular scaffolds, which display many of the same desirable characteristics. In this Review, we summarise these efforts, focussing on both mechanistic aspects and synthetic considerations, concluding with an overview of the frontiers of this field and routes towards more efficient and benign Friedel‐Crafts reactions for the future of humankind. Artificial enzymes: Friedel‐Crafts reactions are a mainstay methodology for organic chemists to construct aryl‐alkyl and aryl‐acyl linkages. Nature uses biocatalysts for performing such reactions to construct an array of bio‐active compounds. In this Review we discuss several examples of such enzymes, as well Friedel‐Crafts artificial enzymes and DNA catalysts, from the useful products they produce, to their mechanism and approaches for engineering.

Friedel-Crafts Reaction of N,N-Dimethylaniline with Alkenes Catalyzed by Cyclic Diaminocarbene-Gold(I) Complex.

Project description:In general, Friedel-Crafts reaction is incompatible with amines due to the Lewis acidity of the catalysts. Recently, we reported that cyclic diaminocarbene-Gold(I) can be used as catalyst for the Friedel-Crafts alkylation between aromatic amines and alkenes. Herein, a systematically theoretical research was performed on this rare Friedel-Crafts reaction. The adopted calculation method is accurate enough to reproduce the crystal structure of the catalyst. It was found that the reactions followed the electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism. The gold cation can activate the C=C double bond and generate the electrophilic group which can be attacked by the aromatic ring. The para-product is more energy favorable which agrees well with the experimental results. The reaction of ?-methylstyrene follows the Markovnikov rule, and the activation energy to generate the branched product of methylstyrene is lower than that producing the linear product. However, the reaction of butanone follows the anti-Markovnikov rule, and the activation energy to generate the branched product of butanone is higher than that producing the linear product. These calculation results reveal the mechanism of this new Friedel-Crafts reaction. It can well explain the high para-selectivity and the substrate-dependent of the product structures in the experiment.
