Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Dehydration of Fatty Acids for the Production of Linear Alpha Olefins.

ABSTRACT: A highly efficient palladium-catalyzed decarbonylative dehydration reaction of carboxylic acids is reported. This method transforms abundant and renewable even-numbered natural fatty acids into valuable and expensive odd-numbered alpha olefins. Additionally, the chemistry displays a high functional group tolerance. The process employs low loading of palladium catalyst and proceeds under solvent-free and relatively mild conditions.

Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Trifluoromethylation of Acid Fluorides.

Project description:While acid fluorides can readily be made from widely available or biomass-feedstock-derived carboxylic acids, their use as functional groups in metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions is rare. This report presents the first demonstration of Pd-catalyzed decarbonylative functionalization of acid fluorides to yield trifluoromethyl arenes (ArCF3 ). The strategy relies on a Pd/Xantphos catalytic system and the supply of fluoride for transmetalation through intramolecular redistribution to the the Pd center. This strategy eliminated the need for exogenous and detrimental fluoride additives and allows Xantphos to be used in catalytic trifluoromethylations for the first time. Our experimental and computational mechanistic data support a sequence in which transmetalation by R3 SiCF3 occurs prior to decarbonylation.

Palladium/Norbornene-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Difunctionalization of Thioesters.

Project description:The transition-metal-catalyzed decarboxylation of aryl carboxylic acids has drawn significant attention as an efficient and practical tool for the synthesis of substituted arenes. However, the decarboxylative construction of polysubstituted arenes with different contiguous substituents has not been widely reported. Herein, we describe a novel decarbonylative Catellani reaction via palladium-catalyzed, norbornene (NBE)-mediated polyfunctionalization of aromatic thioesters, which serve as readily available carboxylic acid derivatives. A variety of alkenyl, alkyl, aryl, and sulfur moieties could be conveniently introduced into the ipso-positions of the aromatic thioesters. By combining carboxyl-directed C-H functionalization and the classical Catellani reaction, our protocol allows for the construction of 1,2,3-trisubstituted and 1,2,3,4-tetrasubstituted arenes from simple aromatic acids. Furthermore, the late-stage functionalization of a series of drug molecules highlights the potential utility of the reaction.

Synthesis of Biaryls via Decarbonylative Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Carboxylic Acids.

Project description:The biaryl motif is a building block in many drugs, agrochemicals, and materials, and as such it is highly desirable as a synthesis target. The state-of-the-art process for biaryl synthesis from ubiquitous carboxylic acids is decarboxylative cross-coupling involving loss of carbon dioxide (CO2). However, the scope of these methods is severely limited, mainly due to specific substitution required to promote decarboxylation. The present report implements a decarbonylative version with loss of carbon monoxide (CO) that enables to directly engage carboxylic acids in a Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling to produce biaryls as a general method with high cross-coupling selectivity using a well-defined Pd(0)/(II) catalytic cycle. This protocol shows a remarkably broad scope (>80 examples) and is performed in the absence of exogenous inorganic bases. In a broader context, the approach shows promise for routine applications in the synthesis of biaryls by carefully controlled decarbonylation of prevalent carboxylic acids.

Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Iodination of Aryl Carboxylic Acids Enabled by Ligand-Assisted Halide Exchange.

Project description:We report an efficient and broadly applicable palladium-catalyzed iodination of inexpensive and abundant aryl and vinyl carboxylic acids via in situ activation to the acid chloride and formation of a phosphonium salt. The use of 1-iodobutane as iodide source in combination with a base and a deoxychlorinating reagent gives access to a wide range of aryl and vinyl iodides under Pd/Xantphos catalysis, including complex drug-like scaffolds. Stoichiometric experiments and kinetic analysis suggest a unique mechanism involving C-P reductive elimination to form the Xantphos phosphonium chloride, which subsequently initiates an unusual halogen exchange by outer sphere nucleophilic substitution.

Palladium-Catalyzed Decarbonylative Dehydration for the Synthesis of ?-Vinyl Carbonyl Compounds and Total Synthesis of (-)-Aspewentins A, B, and C.

Project description:The direct ?-vinylation of carbonyl compounds to form a quaternary stereocenter is a challenging transformation. It was discovered that ?-oxocarboxylic acids can serve as masked vinyl compounds and be unveiled by palladium-catalyzed decarbonylative dehydration. The carboxylic acids are readily available through enantioselective acrylate addition or asymmetric allylic alkylation. A variety of ?-vinyl quaternary carbonyl compounds are obtained in good yields, and an application in the first enantioselective total synthesis of (-)-aspewentins A, B, and C is demonstrated.

Palladium(II)-catalyzed Heck reaction of aryl halides and arylboronic acids with olefins under mild conditions.

Project description:A series of general and selective Pd(II)-catalyzed Heck reactions were investigated under mild reaction conditions. The first protocol has been developed employing an imidazole-based secondary phosphine oxide (SPO) ligated palladium complex (6) as a precatalyst. The catalytic coupling of aryl halides and olefins led to the formation of the corresponding coupled products in excellent yields. A variety of substrates, both electron-rich and electron-poor olefins, were converted smoothly to the targeted products in high yields. Compared with the existing approaches employing SPO-Pd complexes in a Heck reaction, the current strategy features mild reaction conditions and broad substrate scope. Furthermore, we described the coupling of arylboronic acids with olefins, which were catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2 and employed N-bromosuccinimide as an additive under ambient conditions. The resulted biaryls have been obtained in moderate to good yields.

Palladium-catalyzed decarbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of amides by carbon-nitrogen bond activation.

Project description:Palladium-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling or aryl halides is widely employed in the synthesis of many important molecules in synthetic chemistry, including pharmaceuticals, polymers and functional materials. Herein, we disclose the first palladium-catalyzed decarbonylative Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of amides for the synthesis of biaryls through the selective activation of the N-C(O) bond of amides. This new method relies on the precise sequence engineering of the catalytic cycle, wherein decarbonylation occurs prior to the transmetallation step. The reaction is compatible with a wide range of boronic acids and amides, providing valuable biaryls in high yields (>60 examples). DFT studies support a mechanism involving oxidative addition, decarbonylation and transmetallation and provide insight into high N-C(O) bond activation selectivity. Most crucially, the reaction establishes the use of palladium catalysis in the biaryl Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of the amide bond and should enable the design of a wide variety of cross-coupling methods in which palladium rivals the traditional biaryl synthesis from aryl halides and pseudohalides.

Saturated fatty acids accelerate linear motility through mitochondrial ATP production in bull sperm.

Project description:PurposeThe present study was undertaken to clarify whether bovine sperm could take up fatty acids (FAs) and produce ATP to maintain linear motility.MethodsFrozen bovine semen was thawed in media containing either lipid mixture (LM) or FAs, and sperm motility was analyzed. The kinetic changes in FA levels in sperm were detected using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The mitochondrial activity of sperm thawed in media containing LM or FAs was analyzed based on the fluorescence intensity of JC-1 staining and the oxygen consumption rate. FA transporters were observed using whole-mounted immunofluorescence.ResultsSperm linear motility was significantly (P < .05) increased after thawing in media with LM and FA. Moreover, saturated fatty acids were predominant in sperm thawed in media with LM. Notably, our study revealed that frozen bovine sperm possessed FA transporters in the midpiece where the fluorescence signals were detected after treatment with fluorescence-tagged FA. Treatment with FA activated electron transport in mitochondria through β-oxidation.ConclusionsSperm linear motility is facilitated by FAs in the thawing media used for frozen bovine sperm. This might provide a new approach for upgrading the artificial insemination technique used in both livestock animals and human infertility care.
