Catalyst-controlled Wacker-type oxidation of homoallylic alcohols in the absence of protecting groups.

ABSTRACT: Homoallylic alcohols are oxidized to ?-hydroxy ketones using a TBHP-mediated Pd-catalyzed Wacker-type oxidation. The use of a bidentate ligand, quinoline-2-oxazoline (Quinox), and TBHP((aq)) as the terminal oxidant provides good yields of the desired products with reaction times significantly reduced as compared to the Tsuji-Wacker oxidation. Additionally, bis- and tris-homoallylic alcohols are oxidized to provide cyclic peroxyketals, presumably via nucleophilic attack of the methyl ketone product.

Wacker-type oxidation of internal alkenes using Pd(Quinox) and TBHP.

Project description:The Pd-catalyzed TBHP-mediated Wacker-type oxidation of internal alkenes is reported. The reaction uses 2-(4,5-dihydro-2-oxazolyl)quinoline (Quinox) as ligand and TBHP(aq) as oxidant to deliver single ketone constitutional isomer products in a predictable fashion from electronically biased olefins. This methodology is showcased through its application on an advanced intermediate in the total synthesis of the antimalarial drug artemisinin.

A general and efficient catalyst system for a Wacker-type oxidation using TBHP as the terminal oxidant: application to classically challenging substrates.

Project description:Utilizing the rapidly synthesized Quinox ligand and commercially available aqueous TBHP, a Wacker-type oxidation has been developed, which efficiently converts the traditionally challenging substrate class of protected allylic alcohols to the corresponding acyloin products. Additionally, the catalytic system is general for several other substrate classes, converting terminal olefins to methyl ketones, with short reaction times. The system is scalable (20 mmol) and can be performed with a reduced catalyst loading of 1 mol%. Enantioenriched substrates undergo oxidation with complete retention of enantiomeric excess.

Trace Ethylene Sensing via Wacker Oxidation.

Project description:Ethylene is a dynamic plant hormone, and its temporal monitoring can be used to glean insight into plant health and status. However, the real-time distributed detection of ethylene at trace levels under ambient conditions remains a challenge. We report a single-walled carbon nanotube-based chemiresistor catalyst combination that can detect ppb levels of ethylene in air. Cycling between Pd(II) and Pd(0) via Wacker oxidation with a nitrite cocatalyst imparts response discrimination driven by the chemoselectivity of the chemical transformation. Sensitivity is controlled by a combination of the chemical reaction efficiency and the n-doping strength of the Pd(0) species generated in situ. The covalent functionalization of the carbon nanotube sidewall with pyridyl ligands drastically improves the device sensitivity via enhanced n-doping. The utility of this ethylene sensor is demonstrated in the monitoring of senescence in red carnations and purple lisianthus flowers.

Regiocontrolled Wacker Oxidation of Cinnamyl Azides.

Project description:A highly regioselective Wacker oxidation has been developed for the oxidation of cinnamyl azides. The catalytic oxidation tolerates the azide functionality, and more than 15 β-azido ketones were isolated (25-92% yield). High regioselectivity for the aryl ketone is observed in all cases. A robustness screen was conducted to determine functional group tolerance. The products of the oxidaiton can be readily diversified.

Barbier-type anti-Diastereo- and Enantioselective Synthesis of β-Trimethylsilyl, Fluorinated Methyl, Phenylthio Homoallylic Alcohols.

Project description:Catalytic Asymmetric allylation of aldehydes with functionalized allylic reagents represents an important process in synthetic organic chemistry because the resulting chiral homoallylic alcohols are valuable building blocks in diverse research fields. Despite the obvious advantages of allyl halides as allylation reagent under Barbier-type conditions, catalytic asymmetric version using functionalized allyl halides remains largely underdeveloped. Here, we addressed this issue by employing a chromium-catalysis system. The use of readily available allyl bromides with γ substitutions including trimethylsilyl, fluorinated methyl and phenylthio groups provided an efficient and convenient method to introduce those privileged functionalities into homoallylic alcohols. Good yields, high anti-diastereo- and excellent enantioselectivities were achieved under mild reaction conditions.

Iodine-catalyzed prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes.

Project description:The iodine-catalyzed Prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohols and aldehydes was investigated under metal-free conditions and without additives. Anhydrous conditions and inert atmosphere are not required. The reaction of 2-(3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1-yl)propan-1-ol and 21 aldehydes (aliphatic and aromatic) in CH₂Cl₂ in the presence of 5 mol % of iodine gave 1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[f]isochromenes in 54%-86% yield. Under similar conditions, the Prins cyclization of six alcohols containing an endocyclic double bond (primary, secondary, or tertiary) led to dihydropyrans in 52%-91% yield. The acyclic homoallylic alcohols gave 4-iodo-tetrahydropyran in 29%-41% yield in the presence of 50 mol % of iodine. This type of substrate is the main limitation of the methodology. The relative configuration of the products was assigned by NMR and X-ray analysis. The mechanism and the ratio of the products are discussed, based on DFT calculations.

A multicomponent approach for the preparation of homoallylic alcohols.

Project description:Here we report the in situ generation of transient allylic boronic species, by reacting TMSCHN2 and E-vinyl boronic acids, followed by their subsequent trapping with aldehydes as electrophiles to yield homoallylic alcohols. This metal-free reaction was initially discovered by the use of a flow chemistry approach to generate a variety of homoallylic alcohols in a straightforward fashion and then transferred to a batch protocol.

Asymmetric epoxidation, kinetic resolution, and desymmetrization have been developed, demonstrating the flexible nature of the Hf(IV)-BHA system. This is the first report in which these substrates were obtained with enantioselectivities of up to 99%.

Mechanistic Studies on the Hexadecafluorophthalocyanine-Iron-Catalyzed Wacker-Type Oxidation of Olefins to Ketones*.

Project description:The hexadecafluorophthalocyanine-iron complex FePcF16 was recently shown to convert olefins into ketones in the presence of stoichiometric amounts of triethylsilane in ethanol at room temperature under an oxygen atmosphere. Herein, we describe an extensive mechanistic investigation for the conversion of 2-vinylnaphthalene into 2-acetylnaphthalene as model reaction. A variety of studies including deuterium- and 18 O2 -labeling experiments, ESI-MS, and 57 Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy were performed to identify the intermediates involved in the catalytic cycle of the oxidation process. Finally, a detailed and well-supported reaction mechanism for the FePcF16 -catalyzed Wacker-type oxidation is proposed.

Palladium/Iron-Catalyzed Wacker-Type Oxidation of Aliphatic Terminal and Internal Alkenes Using O2.

Project description:The Wacker-type oxidation of aliphatic terminal alkenes proceeds using a Pd/Fe catalyst system under mild reaction conditions using 1 atm O2 without other additives. The use of 1,2-dimethoxyethane/H2O as a mixed solvent was effective. The slow addition of alkenes is also important for improving product yields. Fe(III) citrate was the most efficient cocatalyst among the iron complexes examined, whereas other complexes such as FeSO4, Fe2(SO4)3, Fe(NO3)3, and Fe2O3 were also operative. This method is also applicable to aliphatic internal alkenes, which are generally difficult to oxidize using conventional Pd/Cu catalyst systems. The gram-scale synthesis and reuse of the Pd catalysts were also demonstrated.
