Synthesis of benzocycloheptanones through coupling of ?,?-unsaturated chromium carbene complexes and 2-alkynylbenzoyl derivatives.

ABSTRACT: The coupling of pentenylcarbene complexes and 2-alkynylbenzoyl derivatives affords naphthocycloheptanones in a single step involving simultaneous construction of both the seven-membered ring and one of the aromatic rings. Aryl tethered systems undergo intramolecular cyclopropanation.

Electronic Control of Product Distribution in the [5+5]-Coupling of ortho-Alkynylbenzaldehyde Derivatives and γ,δ-Unsaturated Carbene Complexes.

Project description:The coupling of highly oxygenated ortho-alkynylbenzaldehyde derivatives with γ,δ-carbene complexes was evaluated systematically. In all of the electron-rich systems investigated the exclusive product of the reaction is the dihydrophenanthrene derivative. Only the extremely electron withdrawing methanesulfonate group can prevent this process from occurring. The use of the base additive collidine resulted in a surprising yield enhancement but no other discernable effect on the course of the reaction. Dihydrophenanthrene formation was attributed to rapid dehydration after the opening of a benzo-oxanorbornene intermediate.

Synthesis of phenanthrene derivatives through the net [5+5]-cycloaddition of prenylated carbene complexes with 2-alkynylbenzaldehyde derivatives.

Project description:The reaction of prenylated carbene complexes and 2-alkynylbenzoyl derivatives has been investigated. Phenanthrene derivatives are produced if iodine is added prior to product isolation. Under these conditions alkyl migration reactions occur to form the observed products. The product yields are considerably higher using bis(prenylated) species owing to an increase in the effective molarity of dienophilic entities.

Synthesis of naphthalenes through three-component coupling of alkynes, Fischer carbene complexes, and benzaldehyde hydrazones via isoindole intermediates.

Project description:The synthesis of naphthalene derivatives through three-component coupling of 2-alkynylbenzaldehyde hydrazones with carbene complexes and electron-deficient alkynes has been examined. The reaction involves formation of an isoindole derivative, followed by intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction, followed by nitrene extrusion. The reaction was highly regioselective using unsymmetrical alkynes.

Metal-carbene-guided twofold cross-coupling of ethers with chromium catalysis.

Project description:Coupling by metal-carbene transfer enables the formation of several different bonds at the carbenoid site, enabling prochiral Csp3 centers that are fundamental three-dimensional substructures for medicines to be forged with increased efficiency. However, strategies using bulk chemicals are rare because of the challenge of breaking two unactivated geminal bonds. Herein, we report the reactivity of ethers to form metal-carbene intermediate by cleavage of α-Csp3-H/Csp3-O bonds, which achieve selective coupling with arylmagnesium bromides and chlorosilanes. These couplings are catalysed by cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene-chromium complex and enable the one-step formation of 1,n-arylsilyl alcohols and α-arylated silanes. Mechanistic studies indicate that the in-situ formed low-valent Cr might react with iodobenzene to form phenyl radical species, which abstracts the α-H atom of ether in giving α-oxy radical. The latter combines with Cr by breaking α-Csp3-O bond to afford metal-carbene intermediate, which couples with aryl Grignard and chlorosilane to form two σ-bonds.

Synthesis of highly substituted benzene ring systems through three-component coupling of enyne imines, Fischer carbene complexes, and electron-deficient alkynes.

Project description:Three-component coupling of Fischer carbene complexes, enyne aldehyde hydrazones, and electron-deficient alkynes leads to simple benzoate derivatives in a process involving the formation of an N-aminopyrrole derivative, Diels-Alder reaction, and nitrene extrusion. The products are readily converted into isoquinolones through reaction with primary amines. The reaction proceeds best with highly substituted and electron-rich pyrroles even though these are the sterically least favorable substrates, and this reactivity trend is supported by a computational study.

Palladium(ii) complexes bearing mesoionic carbene ligands: catalytic application in domino Sonogashira coupling/cyclization reactions for one-pot synthesis of benzofuran and indole derivatives.

Project description:Bioactive heterocycles such as benzofuran and indole derivatives were synthesized from commercially available 2-iodoarenes and alkynes via domino Sonogashira coupling followed by cyclization reaction using well-defined palladium PEPPSI (Pyridine Enhanced Precatalyst Preparation Stabilization and Initiation) complexes (2a and 2b). These reactions tolerate a variety of 2-iodoarenes and diversely substituted terminal alkynes, resulting in the corresponding product in moderate to good yields in an open-air atmosphere. In particular, two palladium(ii) PEPPSI complexes 2a and 2b were synthesized in good yields from the reaction of corresponding 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene (MIC: mesoionic carbene), PdCl2, KI, and K2CO3 in pyridine at 110 °C and structurally characterized by various spectroscopic techniques including NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, HRMS and elemental analysis studies. Complex 2b is also characterized by X-ray crystallography.

Backbone tuning in indenylidene-ruthenium complexes bearing an unsaturated N-heterocyclic carbene.

Project description:The steric and electronic influence of backbone substitution in IMes-based (IMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) was probed by synthesizing the [RhCl(CO)?(NHC)] series of complexes to quantify experimentally the Tolman electronic parameter (electronic) and the percent buried volume (%V(bur), steric) parameters. The corresponding ruthenium-indenylidene complexes were also synthesized and tested in benchmark metathesis transformations to establish possible correlations between reactivity and NHC electronic and steric parameters.

Coupling of Fischer carbene complexes with conjugated enediynes featuring radical traps; Novel structure and reactivity features of chromium complexed arene diradical species.

Project description:The reaction of Fischer carbene complexes with conjugated enediynes that feature a pendant alkene group has been examined. The reaction proceeds through carbene-alkyne coupling to generate an enyne-ketene intermediate. This intermediate then undergoes Moore cyclization to generate a chromium complexed arene diradical, which then undergoes cyclization with the pendant alkene group. The radical cyclization prefers the 6-endo mode unless radical-stabilizing groups are present to favor the 5-exo mode. The intermediate diradical species were evaluated computationally in both the singlet and triplet configurations. Arene triplet diradicals feature minimal spin density at oxygen and delocalization to chromium. The 6-endo cyclization product was kinetically and thermodynamically favored.

Stereoselective Synthesis of δ- and ε-Amino Ketone Derivatives from N-tert-Butanesulfinyl Aldimines and Functionalized Organolithium Compounds.

Project description:The addition of functionalized organolithium compounds derived from 5-chloro-2-methoxy-1-pentene and 6-chloro-2-methoxy-1-hexene to N-tert-butanesulfinyl aldimines imines, and a subsequent hydrolysis of the enol ether moiety, yielded different δ- and ε-amino ketone derivatives, respectively, in moderate yields and diastereoselectivities. The application of these compounds in organic synthesis was demonstrated by the preparation of 2-substituted 6-methylpiperidines in a stereoselective manner, among them natural alkaloids (+)- and (-)-isosolenopsin A.
