Carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization approach for the synthesis of fluorenones and ortho-arylated benzonitriles.

ABSTRACT: A sequence consisting of palladium-catalyzed benzamide ortho-arylation/reaction with (CF3CO)2O was developed allowing a convenient one-pot synthesis of ortho-arylated benzonitriles and fluorenone derivatives. The outcome of this transformation is dependent on the amide N-alkyl substituent. Dehydration of ortho-arylated N-cyclohexyl-benzamides by (CF3CO)2O results in efficient production of benzonitriles. In contrast, o-arylated N-propylbenzamides are converted to fluorenone derivatives.

Synthesis of sulfur-containing heterocycles through oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization.

Project description:Vinyl sulfides react rapidly and efficiently with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form ?,?-unsaturated thiocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage. These electrophiles couple with appended ?-nucleophiles to yield sulfur-containing heterocycles through carbon-carbon bond formation. Several nucleophiles are compatible with the procedure, and the reactions generally proceed through readily predictable transition states.

Spiroacetal formation through telescoped cycloaddition and carbon-hydrogen bond functionalization: total synthesis of bistramide?A.

Project description:Spiroacetals can be formed through a one-pot sequence of a hetero-Diels-Alder reaction, an oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage, and an acid treatment. This convergent approach expedites access to a complex molecular subunit which is present in numerous biologically active structures. The utility of the protocol is demonstrated through its application to a brief synthesis of the actin-binding cytotoxin bistramide?A.

C-H bond functionalization via hydride transfer: synthesis of dihydrobenzopyrans from ortho-vinylaryl akyl ethers.

Project description:The hydride transfer initiated cyclization ("HT-cyclization") of aryl alkyl ethers, which leads to direct coupling of sp(3) C-H bonds and activated alkenes, is reported. Readily available salicylaldehyde derived ethers are converted in one step to dihydrobenzopyrans, an important class of heteroarenes frequently found in biologically active compounds. This process has not been previously reported, in contrast to known HT-cyclizations of the corresponding tert-amines ("tert-amino effect" reactions).

Aromatic cations from oxidative carbon-hydrogen bond cleavage in bimolecular carbon-carbon bond forming reactions.

Project description:Chromenes and isochromenes react quickly with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) to form persistent aromatic oxocarbenium ions through oxidative carbon-hydrogen cleavage. This process is tolerant of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups on the benzene ring and additional substitution on the pyran ring. A variety of nucleophiles can be added to these cations to generate a diverse set of structures.

Practical and innate carbon-hydrogen functionalization of heterocycles.

Project description:Nitrogen-rich heterocyclic compounds have had a profound effect on human health because these chemical motifs are found in a large number of drugs used to combat a broad range of diseases and pathophysiological conditions. Advances in transition-metal-mediated cross-coupling have simplified the synthesis of such molecules; however, C-H functionalization of medicinally important heterocycles that does not rely on pre-functionalized starting materials is an underdeveloped area. Unfortunately, the innate properties of heterocycles that make them so desirable for biological applications--such as aqueous solubility and their ability to act as ligands--render them challenging substrates for direct chemical functionalization. Here we report that zinc sulphinate salts can be used to transfer alkyl radicals to heterocycles, allowing for the mild (moderate temperature, 50?°C or less), direct and operationally simple formation of medicinally relevant C-C bonds while reacting in a complementary fashion to other innate C-H functionalization methods (Minisci, borono-Minisci, electrophilic aromatic substitution, transition-metal-mediated C-H insertion and C-H deprotonation). We prepared a toolkit of these reagents and studied their reactivity across a wide range of heterocycles (natural products, drugs and building blocks) without recourse to protecting-group chemistry. The reagents can even be used in tandem fashion in a single pot in the presence of water and air.

Catalytic atroposelective synthesis of axially chiral benzonitriles via chirality control during bond dissociation and CN group formation.

Project description:The applications of axially chiral benzonitriles and their derivatives remain mostly unexplored due to their synthetic difficulties. Here we disclose an unusual strategy for atroposelective access to benzonitriles via formation of the nitrile unit on biaryl scaffolds pre-installed with stereogenic axes in racemic forms. Our method starts with racemic 2-arylbenzaldehydes and sulfonamides as the substrates and N-heterocyclic carbenes as the organocatalysts to afford axially chiral benzonitriles in good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities. DFT calculations suggest that the loss of p-toluenesulfinate group is both the rate-determining and stereo-determining step. The axial chirality is controlled during the bond dissociation and CN group formation. The reaction features a dynamic kinetic resolution process modulated by both covalent and non-covalent catalytic interactions. The axially chiral benzonitriles from our method can be easily converted to a large set of functional molecules that show promising catalytic activities for chemical syntheses and anti-bacterial activities for plant protections.

Hydrogen Bond Directed ortho-Selective C-H Borylation of Secondary Aromatic Amides.

Project description:Reported is an iridium catalyst for ortho-selective C-H borylation of challenging secondary aromatic amide substrates, and the regioselectivity is controlled by hydrogen-bond interactions. The BAIPy-Ir catalyst forms three hydrogen bonds with the substrate during the crucial activation step, and allows ortho-C-H borylation with high selectivity. The catalyst displays unprecedented ortho selectivities for a wide variety of substrates that differ in electronic and steric properties, and the catalyst tolerates various functional groups. The regioselective C-H borylation catalyst is readily accessible and converts substrates on gram scale with high selectivity and conversion.

Bimodal supramolecular functionalization of carbon nanotubes triggered by covalent bond formation.

Project description:Many applications of carbon nanotubes require their chemical functionalization. Both covalent and supramolecular approaches have been extensively investigated. A less trodden path is the combination of both covalent and noncovalent chemistries, where the formation of covalent bonds triggers a particularly stable noncovalent interaction with the nanotubes. We describe a series of naphthalene diimide (NDI) bisalkene molecules that, upon mixing with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and Grubbs' catalyst, undergo two different reaction pathways. On one hand, they ring-close around the SWNTs to form rotaxane-like mechanically interlocked derivatives of SWNTs (MINTs). Alternatively, they oligomerize and then wrap around the SWNTs. The balance of MINTs to oligomer-wrapped SWNTs depends on the affinity of the NDI molecules for the SWNTs and the kinetics of the metathesis reactions, which can be controlled by varying the solvent. Thorough characterization of the products (TGA, TEM, AFM, Raman, UV-vis-NIR, PLE, XPS and UPS) confirms their structure and shows that each type of functionalization affects the electronic properties of the SWNTs differently.

Sphalerite is a geochemical catalyst for carbon-hydrogen bond activation.

Project description:Reactions among minerals and organic compounds in hydrothermal systems are critical components of the Earth's deep carbon cycle, provide energy for the deep biosphere, and may have implications for the origins of life. However, there is limited information as to how specific minerals influence the reactivity of organic compounds. Here we demonstrate mineral catalysis of the most fundamental component of an organic reaction: the breaking and making of a covalent bond. In the absence of mineral, hydrothermal reaction of cis- and trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane is extremely slow and generates many products. In the presence of sphalerite (ZnS), however, the reaction rate increases dramatically and one major product is formed: the corresponding stereoisomer. Isotope studies show that the sphalerite acts as a highly specific heterogeneous catalyst for activation of a single carbon-hydrogen bond in the dimethylcyclohexanes.
