Single-flask synthesis of N-acylated indoles by catalytic dehydrogenative coupling with primary alcohols.

ABSTRACT: Indoles and alcohols can be coupled in a dehydrogenative process catalyzed by tetrapropylammonium perruthenate. This efficient approach to indolylamides proceeds in a single flask under mild conditions. By employing substituted indoles and alkyl, branched, or benzylic alcohols, a variety of indolylamides can be formed. Aryl indolylamides can be functionalized through an additional dehydrogenative coupling to furnish elaborated polycyclic heterocycles similar to biologically active structures previously reported.

Iron-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling of Alcohols With Aromatic Diamines: Selective Synthesis of 1,2-Disubstituted Benzimidazoles.

Project description:Benzimidazoles are important N-heteroaromatic compounds with various biological activities and pharmacological applications. Herein, we present the first iron-catalyzed selective synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles via acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols with aromatic diamines. The tricarbonyl (?4-cyclopentadienone) iron complex catalyzed dehydrogenative cyclization, releasing water and hydrogen gas as by-products. The earth abundance and low toxicity of iron metal enable the provision of an eco-friendly and efficient catalytic method for the synthesis of benzimidazoles.

O<sub>2</sub>-Mediated Te(II)-Redox Catalysis for the Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of Indoles.

Project description:Very few elements in the periodic system can catalytically activate O2, such as in the context of cross-dehydrogenative couplings. The development of O2-activating catalysts is essential to enable new and sustainable reactivity concepts to emerge, because these catalysts also often feature specific activating interactions with the target substrates. In this context, the unprecedented Te(II)/Te(III) catalyzed dehydrogenative C3-C2 dimerization of indoles is described herein. The fact that O2 can be directly utilized as a terminal oxidant in this reaction, as well as the absence of any background reactivity without the redox-active Te catalyst, constitute very important milestones for the fields of cross-dehydrogenative couplings and tellurium catalysis.

Concerted Functions of Surface Acid-Base Pairs and Supported Copper Catalysts for Dehydrogenative Synthesis of Esters from Primary Alcohols.

Project description:Dehydrogenative synthesis of esters from primary alcohols proceeded efficiently over a ZrO2-supported copper catalyst. A variety of esters were obtained from primary alcohols as well as diols in good to high yields. The key to the dehydrogenative synthesis of esters is the concerted effect of the acid-base pairs on ZrO2 and metallic copper.

Broad-spectrum kinetic resolution of alcohols enabled by Cu-H-catalysed dehydrogenative coupling with hydrosilanes.

Project description:The enantioselective silylation of racemic alcohols, where one enantiomer reacts faster than the other, is an alternative approach to established enzymatic and non-enzymatic acylation techniques. The existing art is either limited to structurally biased alcohols or requires elaborate catalysts. Simple substrates, such as benzylic and allylic alcohols, with no coordinating functionality in the proximity of the hydroxy group have been challenging in these kinetic resolutions. We report here the identification of a broadly applicable chiral catalyst for the enantioselective dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and hydrosilanes with both the chiral ligand and the hydrosilane being commercially available. The efficiency of kinetic resolutions is characterized by the selectivity factor, that is, the ratio of the reaction rates of the fast-reacting over the slow-reacting enantiomer. The selectivity factors achieved with the new method are good for acyclic benzylic alcohols (?170) and high for synthetically usefully cyclic benzylic (?40.1) and allylic alcohols (?159).

Iron-catalyzed urea synthesis: dehydrogenative coupling of methanol and amines.

Project description:Substituted ureas have numerous applications but their synthesis typically requires the use of highly toxic starting materials. Herein we describe the first base-metal catalyst for the selective synthesis of symmetric ureas via the dehydrogenative coupling of methanol with primary amines. Using a pincer supported iron catalyst, a range of ureas was generated with isolated yields of up to 80% (corresponding to a catalytic turnover of up to 160) and with H2 as the sole byproduct. Mechanistic studies indicate a stepwise pathway beginning with methanol dehydrogenation to give formaldehyde, which is trapped by amine to afford a formamide. The formamide is then dehydrogenated to produce a transient isocyanate, which reacts with another equivalent of amine to form a urea. These mechanistic insights enabled the development of an iron-catalyzed method for the synthesis of unsymmetric ureas from amides and amines.

Manganese(I)-Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Ketones and Secondary Alcohols with Primary Alcohols.

Project description:Catalytic cross-coupling of ketones and secondary alcohols with primary alcohols is reported. An abundant manganese-based pincer catalyst catalyzes the reactions. Low loading of catalyst (2 mol %) and catalytic use of a mild base (5-10 mol %) are sufficient for efficient cross-coupling. Various aryl and heteroaryl ketones are catalytically cross-coupled with primary alcohols to provide the selective α-alkylated products. Challenging α-ethylation of ketones is also attained using ethanol as an alkylating reagent. Further, direct use of secondary alcohols in the reaction results in in situ oxidation to provide the ketone intermediates, which undergo selective α-alkylation. The reaction proceeds via the borrowing hydrogen pathway. The catalyst oxidizes the primary alcohols to aldehydes, which undergo subsequent aldol condensation with ketones, promoted by catalytic amount of Cs2CO3, to provide the α,β-unsaturated ketone intermediates. The hydrogen liberated from oxidation of alcohols is used for hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated ketone intermediates. Notably either water or water and dihydrogen are the only byproducts in these environmentally benign catalytic processes. Mechanistic studies allowed inferring all of the intermediates involved. Dearomatization-aromatization metal-ligand cooperation in the catalyst facilitates the facile O-H bond activation of both primary and secondary alcohols, and the resultant manganese alkoxide complexes produce corresponding carbonyl compounds, perhaps via β-hydride elimination. The manganese(I) hydride intermediate plays dual role as it hydrogenates α,β-unsaturated ketones and liberates molecular hydrogen to regenerate the catalytically active dearomatized intermediate. Metal-ligand cooperation allows all of the manganese intermediates to exist in same oxidation state (+1) and plays an important role in these catalytic cross-coupling reactions.

Project description:The cationic ruthenium-hydride complex catalyzes dehydrative C-H coupling reaction of arylamines with 1,2-diols to form the indole products. The analogous coupling of arylamines with 1,3-diols afforded the substituted quinolines. The catalytic method directly forms these coupling products in a highly regioselective manner without generating any toxic byproducts.

Palladium-Catalyzed C-O Cross-Coupling of Primary Alcohols.

Project description:Two catalyst systems are described, which together provide mild and general conditions for the Pd-catalyzed C-O cross-coupling of primary alcohols. For activated substrates, such as electron-deficient aryl halides, the commercially available ligand L2 promotes efficient coupling for a variety of alcohol nucleophiles. In the case of unactivated electrophiles, such as electron-rich aryl halides, the new ligand L8 was developed to improve these challenging C-O bond-forming reactions.
