Intercepting Wacker intermediates with arenes: C-H functionalization and dearomatization.

ABSTRACT: An intramolecular cyclization cascade reaction has been developed utilizing a high valent palladium intermediate that generates a carbon-carbon and carbon-oxygen bond in a single transformation. This method provides rapid access to highly functionalized tricyclic scaffolds, including spirocyclic cyclohexadienones. Good yields and mild conditions are reported with high tolerance toward oxygen and water.

Dearomatization of Unactivated Arenes via Catalytic Hydroalkylation.

Project description:The dearomative cyclization of linear amides to complex spirocyclic butyrolactams has been enabled by photoredox catalysis through a reductive radical-polar crossover mechanism. This mechanism operates with precision on unactivated aromatic substrates to give a wide range of 1,4-hydroalkylation products. This method utilizes a simple organic catalyst/reductant pair to deliver products in a highly flexible manner with respect to substitution, and the products can be further functionalized under simple conditions to afford a collection of motifs. The mechanistic analysis performed here outlines the salient features of this strategy, which were applied to prepare a collection of complex scaffolds including the anticonvulsive agent gabapentin.

Double heteroatom functionalization of arenes using benzyne three-component coupling.

Project description:Arynes participate in three-component coupling reactions with N, S, P, and Se functionalities to yield 1,2-heteroatom-difunctionalized arenes. Using 2-iodophenyl arylsulfonates as benzyne precursors, we could effectively add magnesiated S-, Se-, and N-nucleophilic components to the strained triple bond. In the same pot, addition of electrophilic N, S, or P reagents and a copper(I) catalyst trapped the intermediate aryl Grignard to produce a variety of 1,2-difunctionalized arenes.

Tunable C-H functionalization and dearomatization enabled by an organic photocatalyst.

Project description:C-H functionalization and dearomatization constitute fundamental transformations of aromatic compounds, which find wide applications in various research areas. However, achieving both transformations from the same substrates with a single catalyst by operating a distinct mechanism remains challenging. Here, we report a photocatalytic strategy to modulate the reaction pathways that can be directed toward either C-H functionalization or dearomatization under redox-neutral or net-reductive conditions, respectively. Two sets of indoles and indolines bearing tertiary alcohols are divergently furnished with good yields and high selectivity. The key to success is the introduction of isoazatruxene ITN-2 as a novel photocatalyst (PC), which outperforms the commonly used PCs. The ready synthesis and high modulability of isoazatruxene type PCs indicate their great application potential.

Synthesis of 1,2-Bis(trifluoromethylthio)arenes via Aryne Intermediates.

Project description:A general method for synthesis of 1,2-bis-trifluoromethylthioarenes has been developed. Arynes generated from silyl aryl triflates or halides react with bis(trifluoromethyl)disulfide to afford 1,2-bis-trifluoromethylthioarenes. Aryl, alkyl, ester, halide, and methoxy functionalities are compatible with reaction conditions. Use of bis(perfluoroaryl)disulfides gave moderate yields of aryne disulfenylation or cyclization to fluorinated dibenzothiophenes.

Ligand-accelerated non-directed C-H functionalization of arenes.

Project description:The directed activation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (C-H) is important in the development of synthetically useful reactions, owing to the proximity-induced reactivity and selectivity that is enabled by coordinating functional groups. Palladium-catalysed non-directed C-H activation could potentially enable further useful reactions, because it can reach more distant sites and be applied to substrates that do not contain appropriate directing groups; however, its development has faced substantial challenges associated with the lack of sufficiently active palladium catalysts. Currently used palladium catalysts are reactive only with electron-rich arenes, unless an excess of arene is used, which limits synthetic applications. Here we report a 2-pyridone ligand that binds to palladium and accelerates non-directed C-H functionalization with arene as the limiting reagent. This protocol is compatible with a broad range of aromatic substrates and we demonstrate direct functionalization of advanced synthetic intermediates, drug molecules and natural products that cannot be used in excessive quantities. We also developed C-H olefination and carboxylation protocols, demonstrating the applicability of our methodology to other transformations. The site selectivity in these transformations is governed by a combination of steric and electronic effects, with the pyridone ligand enhancing the influence of sterics on the selectivity, thus providing complementary selectivity to directed C-H functionalization.

Functionalization at Will of Rim-Differentiated Pillar[5]arenes.

Project description:The development of an efficient synthetic route toward rim-differentiated C5-symmetric pillar[5]arenes (P[5]s), whose two rims are decorated with different chemical functionalities, opens up successive transformations of this macrocyclic scaffold. This paper describes a gram-scale synthesis of a C5-symmetric penta-hydroxy P[5] precursor, and a range of highly efficient reactions that allow functionalizing either rim at will via, e.g., sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) reactions, esterifications, or Suzuki-Miyaura coupling. Afterward, BBr3 demethylation activates another rim for similar functionalizations.

One-Pot C-H Functionalization of Arenes by Diaryliodonium Salts.

Project description:A transition-metal-free, mild, and highly regioselective synthesis of nitroarenes from arenes has been developed. The products are obtained in a sequential one-pot reaction by nitration of iodine(III) reagents with two carbon ligands, which are formed in situ from iodine(I). This novel concept has been extended to formation of aryl azides, and constitutes an important step towards catalytic reactions with these hypervalent iodine reagents. An efficient nitration of isolated diaryliodonium salts has also been developed, and the mechanism is proposed to proceed by a [2,2]?ligand coupling pathway.

Electrochemical C-H Functionalization of (Hetero)Arenes-Optimized by DoE.

Project description:A novel approach towards the activation of different arenes and purines including caffeine and theophylline is presented. The simple, safe and scalable electrochemical synthesis of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) aryl ethers was conducted using an easy electrolysis setup with boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. Good yields up to 59 % were achieved. Triethylamine was used as a base as it forms a highly conductive media with HFIP, making additional supporting electrolytes superfluous. The synthesis was optimized using Design of Experiment (DoE) techniques giving a detailed insight to the significance of the reaction parameters. The mechanism was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Subsequent transition metal-catalyzed as well as metal-free functionalization led to interesting motifs in excellent yields up to 94 %.

Selective skeletal editing of polycyclic arenes using organophotoredox dearomative functionalization.

Project description:Reactions that lead to destruction of aromatic ring systems often require harsh conditions and, thus, take place with poor selectivities. Selective partial dearomatization of fused arenes is even more challenging but can be a strategic approach to creating versatile, complex polycyclic frameworks. Herein we describe a general organophotoredox approach for the chemo- and regioselective dearomatization of structurally diverse polycyclic aromatics, including quinolines, isoquinolines, quinoxalines, naphthalenes, anthracenes and phenanthrenes. The success of the method for chemoselective oxidative rupture of aromatic moieties relies on precise manipulation of the electronic nature of the fused polycyclic arenes. Mechanistic studies show that the addition of a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) agent helps favor the dearomatization pathway over the more thermodynamically downhill aromatization pathway. We show that this strategy can be applied to rapid synthesis of biologically valued targets and late-stage skeletal remodeling en route to complex structures.

Chemical probes for the functionalization of polyketide intermediates.

Project description:A library of functionalized chemical probes capable of reacting with ketosynthase-bound biosynthetic intermediates was prepared and utilized to explore in?vivo polyketide diversification. Fermentation of ACP mutants of S. lasaliensis in the presence of the probes generated a range of unnatural polyketide derivatives, including novel putative lasalocid?A derivatives characterized by variable aryl ketone moieties and linear polyketide chains (bearing alkyne/azide handles and fluorine) flanking the polyether scaffold. By providing direct information on microorganism tolerance and enzyme processing of unnatural malonyl-ACP analogues, as well as on the amenability of unnatural polyketides to further structural modifications, the chemical probes constitute invaluable tools for the development of novel mutasynthesis and synthetic biology.
