Operationally simple and highly (E)-styrenyl-selective Heck reactions of electronically nonbiased olefins.

ABSTRACT: Simple, mild, and efficient conditions are reported for a Pd(0)-catalyzed Heck reaction that delivers high yields and selectivity for (E)-styrenyl products using electronically nonbiased olefin substrates bearing a range of useful functionality. Preliminary mechanistic studies demonstrate that the ?-donating DMA solvent is crucial for high selectivity. Further studies suggest that the catalyst distinguishes between ?-hydrogens on the basis of their relative hydridic character, in contrast to previously reported Pd(II)-catalyzed oxidative reaction conditions.

Simple, mild, and efficient conditions are reported for a Pd(0)-catalyzed Heck reaction that delivers high yields and selectivity for (E)-styrenyl products using electronically nonbiased olefin substrates bearing a range of useful functionality. Preliminary mechanistic studies demonstrate that the σ-donating DMA solvent is crucial for high selectivity. Further studies suggest that the catalyst distinguishes between β-hydrogens on the basis of their relative hydridic character, in contrast to pre ...[more]

A highly selective and general palladium catalyst for the oxidative Heck reaction of electronically nonbiased olefins.

Project description:A general, highly selective oxidative Heck reaction is reported. The reaction is high-yielding under mild conditions without the need for base or high temperatures, and the selectivity is excellent, without the requirement for electronically biased olefins or other specific directing groups. A preliminary mechanistic investigation suggests that the unusually high selectivity may be due to the catalyst's sensitivity to C-H bond strength in the selectivity-determining ?-hydride elimination step.

Nickel-catalyzed Heck-type reactions of benzyl chlorides and simple olefins.

Project description:Nickel-catalyzed intermolecular benzylation and heterobenzylation of unactivated alkenes to provide functionalized allylbenzene derivatives are described. A wide range of both the benzyl chloride and alkene coupling partners are tolerated. In contrast to analogous palladium-catalyzed variants of this process, all reactions described herein employ electronically unbiased aliphatic olefins (including ethylene), proceed at room temperature, and provide 1,1-disubstituted olefins over the more commonly observed 1,2-disubstituted olefins with very high selectivity.

Highly Selective Radical Relay 1,4-Oxyimination of Two Electronically Differentiated Olefins.

Project description:Radical addition reactions of olefins have emerged as an attractive tool for the rapid assembly of complex structures, and have plentiful applications in organic synthesis, however, such reactions are often limited to polymerization or 1,2-difunctionalization. Herein, we disclose an unprecedented radical relay 1,4-oxyimination of two electronically differentiated olefins with a class of bifunctional oxime carbonate reagents via an energy transfer strategy. The protocol is highly chemo- and regioselective, and three different chemical bonds (C-O, C-C, and C-N bonds) were formed in a single operation in an orchestrated manner. Notably, this reaction provides rapid access to a large variety of structurally diverse 1,4-oxyimination products, and the obtained products could be easily converted into valuable biologically relevant δ-hydroxyl-α-amino acids. With a combination of experimental and theoretical methods, the mechanism for this 1,4-oxyimination reaction has been investigated. Theoretical calculations reveal that a radical chain mechanism might operate in the reaction.

Regioselective aerobic oxidative Heck reactions with electronically unbiased alkenes: efficient access to α-alkyl vinylarenes.

Project description:Branched-selective oxidative Heck coupling reactions have been developed between arylboronic acids and electronically unbiased terminal alkenes. The reactions exhibit high catalyst-controlled regioselectivity favoring the less common branched isomer. The reactions employ a catalyst composed of Pd(TFA)2/dmphen (TFA = trifluoroacetate, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and proceed efficiently at 45-60 °C under 1 atm of O2 without requiring other additives. A broad array of functional groups, including aryl halide, allyl silane and carboxylic acids are tolerated.

Nickel-catalyzed Mizoroki-Heck reaction of aryl sulfonates and chlorides with electronically unbiased terminal olefins: high selectivity for branched products.

Project description:Achieving high selectivity in the Heck reaction of electronically unbiased alkenes has been a longstanding challenge. Using a nickel-catalyzed cationic Heck reaction, we were able to achieve excellent selectivity for branched products (?19:1 in all cases) over a wide range of aryl electrophiles and aliphatic olefins. A bidentate ligand with a suitable bite angle and steric profile was key to obtaining high branched/linear selectivity, whereas the appropriate base suppressed alkene isomerization of the product. Although aryl triflates are traditionally used to access the cationic Heck pathway, we have shown that, by using triethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, we can effect a counterion exchange of the catalytic nickel complex, such that cheaper and more stable aryl chlorides, mesylates, tosylates, and sulfamates can be used to yield the same branched products with high selectivity.

Highly Z-selective metathesis homocoupling of terminal olefins.

Project description:Mo and W MonoAryloxide-Pyrrolide (MAP) olefin metathesis catalysts can couple terminal olefins to give as high as >98% Z-products in moderate to high yields with as little as 0.2% catalyst. Results are reported for 1-hexene, 1-octene, allylbenzene, allyltrimethylsilane, methyl-10-undecenoate, methyl-9-decenoate, allylB(pinacolate), allylOBenzyl, allylNHTosyl, and allylNHPh. It is proposed that high Z-selectivity is achieved because a large aryloxide only allows metallacyclobutanes to form that contain adjacent cis substituents and because isomerization of Z-product to E-product can be slow in that same steric environment.

Heck Reaction of Electronically Diverse Tertiary Alkyl Halides.

Project description:The efficient Pd-catalyzed Heck reaction of diverse tertiary alkyl halides with alkenes has been developed. Unactivated tertiary alkyl halides efficiently react at room temperature under visible light irradiation with no exogenous photosensitizers required. For activated tertiary alkyl halides, the same catalytic system works well without light. These methods offer a general access to electronically diverse alkenes possessing quaternary and functionalized tertiary allylic carbon centers. The substituents at these centers include alkyl-, carbalkoxy-, tosyl-, phosphonyl-, and boronate groups. It was also shown that the end-game mechanism of this transformation may vary depending on the type of the substrates used.

Introducing unactivated acyclic internal aliphatic olefins into a cobalt catalyzed allylic selective dehydrogenative Heck reaction.

Project description:Unactivated acyclic internal aliphatic olefins are often found to be unreactive in conventional alkenylation reactions. To address this problem, a cobalt catalyzed allylic selective dehydrogenative Heck reaction with internal aliphatic olefins has been developed. The method is highly regio- and stereoselective, the conditions are mild and a wide variety of functional groups can be tolerated. Remarkably, both internal and terminal aliphatic olefins can be employed, thereby significantly expanding the scope of alkenylation chemistry with aliphatic olefins.

An efficient, palladium-catalyzed, enantioselective synthesis of (2R)-3-butene-1,2-diol and its use in highly selective Heck reactions.

Project description:A robust and scalable procedure for the palladium-catalyzed dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation of 3,4-epoxy-1-butene into (2R)-3-butene-1,2-diol with water as the cosolvent is reported. Examination of the effects of solvent and temperature led to the identification of conditions that permitted use of 0.025 mol % catalyst, providing (2R)-3-butene-1,2-diol in 84% isolated yield and 85% enantiomeric excess. Subsequent Heck reactions with a diverse range of coupling partners are described and the influence of their electronic nature on maintaining the enantiopurity of the diol is discussed.

A scalable and operationally simple radical trifluoromethylation.

Project description:The large number of reagents that have been developed for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated compounds is a testament to the importance of the CF3 group as well as the associated synthetic challenge. Current state-of-the-art reagents for appending the CF3 functionality directly are highly effective; however, their use on preparative scale has minimal precedent because they require multistep synthesis for their preparation, and/or are prohibitively expensive for large-scale application. For a scalable trifluoromethylation methodology, trifluoroacetic acid and its anhydride represent an attractive solution in terms of cost and availability; however, because of the exceedingly high oxidation potential of trifluoroacetate, previous endeavours to use this material as a CF3 source have required the use of highly forcing conditions. Here we report a strategy for the use of trifluoroacetic anhydride for a scalable and operationally simple trifluoromethylation reaction using pyridine N-oxide and photoredox catalysis to affect a facile decarboxylation to the CF3 radical.
