Rh-Catalyzed Decarbonylation of Conjugated Ynones via Carbon-Alkyne Bond Activation: Reaction Scope and Mechanistic Exploration via DFT Calculations.

ABSTRACT: In this full article, detailed development of a catalytic decarbonylation of conjugated monoynones to synthesize disubstituted alkynes is described. The reaction scope and limitation has been thoroughly investigated, and a broad range of functional groups including heterocycles were compatible under the catalytic conditions. Mechanistic exploration via DFT calculations has also been executed. Through the computational study, a proposed catalytic mechanism has been carefully evaluated. These efforts are expected to serve as an important exploratory study for developing catalytic alkyne-transfer reactions via carbon-alkyne bond activation.

Rh(I)-catalyzed arylation of heterocycles via C-H bond activation: expanded scope through mechanistic insight.

Project description:A practical, functional group tolerant method for the Rh-catalyzed direct arylation of a variety of pharmaceutically important azoles with aryl bromides is described. Many of the successful azole and aryl bromide coupling partners are not compatible with methods for the direct arylation of heterocycles using Pd(0) or Cu(I) catalysts. The readily prepared, low molecular weight ligand, Z-1-tert-butyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydrophosphepine, which coordinates to Rh in a bidentate P-olefin fashion to provide a highly active yet thermally stable arylation catalyst, is essential to the success of this method. By using the tetrafluoroborate salt of the corresponding phosphonium, the reactions can be assembled outside of a glovebox without purification of reagents or solvent. The reactions are also conducted in THF or dioxane, which greatly simplifies product isolation relative to most other methods for direct arylation of azoles employing high-boiling amide solvents. The reactions are performed with heating in a microwave reactor to obtain excellent product yields in 2 h.

Expedient synthesis of conjugated triynes <i>via</i> alkyne metathesis.

Project description:The first synthesis of conjugated triynes by molybdenum-catalysed alkyne metathesis is reported. Strategic to the success of this approach is the utilization of sterically-hindered diynes that allowed for the site-selective alkyne metathesis to produce the desired conjugated triyne products. The steric hindrance of the alkyne moiety was found to be crucial in preventing the formation of diyne byproducts. This novel synthetic strategy was amenable to self- and cross-metathesis providing straightforward access to the corresponding symmetrical and dissymmetrical triynes with high selectivity.

DFT calculations bring insight to internal alkyne-to-vinylidene transformations at rhodium PNP- and PONOP-pincer complexes.

Project description:Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been used to investigate the alkyne-to-vinylidene isomerisation reaction mediated by [Rh(PXNXP)]+ complexes (X = CH2: 2,6-bis(di-tert-butylphosphinomethyl)pyridine (PNP) and X = O: 2,6-bis(di-tert-butylphosphinito)pyridine (PONOP)) for terminal alkynes HC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CR, where R = t Bu and Ar' (3,5- t Bu2C6H3). Calculations suggest the reaction mechanism proceeds via the slippage of π-bound alkyne at the Rh centre into a Rh-alkyne σC-H complex followed by an indirect 1,2-H shift to give the Rh-vinylidene species. NBO (Natural Bond Orbital) analysis of the transition states corresponding to the latter indirect 1,2-H shift step indicates that the migrating hydrogen atom exhibits protic character and hence, the basicity of the H-accepting centre (Cβ) is controlled by the substituents at that same atom and can tune the 1,2-H shift transition state. QTAIM (Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecule) and NBO analyses of the Rh-vinylidene complexes indicate that these species exhibit a Rh ← C dative bond as well as π-back bonding from the Rh centre into the empty p z orbital of the carbene centre (Cα), showing the Rh-vinylidene complexes are Fischer type carbenes. Analysis of the alkyne and vinylidene complex HOMOs show that the equilibrium between the isomers can be tuned by the P-Rh-P bite angle of the [Rh(pincer)]+ fragment. Dictated by the nature of the pincer backbone, wider bite angles shift the equilibrium toward the formation of the Rh-vinylidene isomer (e.g., X = CH2 and R = Ar'), while tighter bite angles shift the equilibrium more to the formation of the Rh-alkyne isomer (e.g., X = O and R = Ar').

Light-driven transition-metal-free direct decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones via a dual C-C bond cleavage.

Project description:The cleavage and formation of carbon-carbon bonds have emerged as powerful tools for structural modifications in organic synthesis. Although transition-metal-catalyzed decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones provides a viable protocol to construct biaryl structures, the use of expensive catalyst and high temperature (>140 oC) have greatly limited their universal applicability. Moreover, the direct activation of two inert C - C bonds in diaryl ketones without the assistance of metal catalyst has been a great challenge due to the inherent stability of C - C bonds (nonpolar, thermo-dynamically stable, and kinetically inert). Here we report an efficient light-driven transition-metal-free strategy for decarbonylation of unstrained diaryl ketones to construct biaryl compounds through dual inert C - C bonds cleavage. This reaction featured mild reaction conditions, easy-to-handle reactants and reagents, and excellent functional groups tolerance. The mechanistic investigation and DFT calculation suggest that this strategy proceeds through the formation of dioxy radical intermediate via a single-electron-transfer (SET) process between photo-excited diaryl ketone and DBU mediated by DMSO, followed by removal of CO2 to construct biaryl compounds.

Asymmetric synthesis of ?-branched amines via Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization.

Project description:The first asymmetric intermolecular addition of non-acidic C-H bonds to imines is reported. The use of the activating N-perfluorobutanesulfinyl imine substituent is essential for achieving sufficient reactivity and provides outstanding diastereoselectivity (>98:2 dr). Straightforward removal of the sulfinyl group with HCl yields the highly enantiomerically enriched amine hydrochlorides.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Intramolecular Alkyne/Benzocyclobutenone Coupling: C-C Bond Cleavage via a Tetrahedral Dicobalt Intermediate.

Project description:A Co(0)-catalyzed intramolecular alkyne/benzocyclobutenone coupling through C-C cleavage of benzocyclobutenones is described. Co2(CO)8/P[3, 5-(CF3)2C6H3]3 was discovered to be an effective metal/ligand combination, which exhibits complementary catalytic activity to the previously established rhodium catalyst. In particular, the C8-substituted substrates failed in the Rh system, but succeeded with the Co catalysis. Experimental and computational studies show that the initially formed tetrahedral dicobalt-alkyne complex undergoes C1-C2 activation via oxidative addition with Co(0), followed by migratory insertion and reductive elimination to give the β-naphthol products.

Tandem Rh-catalysis: decarboxylative β-keto acid and alkyne cross-coupling.

Project description:Herein, we describe a regioselective Rh-catalyzed decarboxylative cross-coupling of β-keto acids and alkynes to access branched γ,δ-unsaturated ketones. Rh-hydride catalysis enables the isomerization of an alkyne to generate a metal-allyl species that can undergo carbon-carbon bond formation. Ketones are generated under mild conditions, without the need for base or activated electrophiles.

Highly selective synthesis of conjugated dienoic and trienoic esters via alkyne elementometalation-Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling.

Project description:All four stereoisomers (7-10) of ethyl undeca-2,4-dienoate were prepared in ? 98% isomeric purity by Pd-catalyzed alkenylation (Negishi coupling) using ethyl (E)- and (Z)-?-bromoacrylates. Although the stereoisomeric purity of the 2Z,4E-isomer (8) prepared by Suzuki coupling using conventional alkoxide and carbonate bases was ? 95%, as reported earlier, the use of CsF or (n)Bu(4)NF as a promoter base has now been found to give all of 7-10 in ? 98% selectivity. Other widely known methods reveal considerable limitations. Heck alkenylation was satisfactory for the syntheses of the 2E,4E and 2E,4Z isomers of ? 98% purity, but the purity of the 2Z,4E isomer was ? 95%. Mutually complementary Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons and Still-Gennari (SG) olefinations are also of considerably limited scopes. Neither 2E,4Z nor 2Z,4Z isomer is readily prepared in ? 90% selectivity. In addition to (2Z,4E)-dienoic esters, some (2Z,4E,6E)- and (2Z,4E,6Z)-trienoic esters have been prepared in ? 98% selectivity by a newly devised Pd-catalyzed alkenylation-SG olefination tandem process. As models for conjugated higher oligoenoic esters, all eight stereoisomers for ethyl trideca-2,4,6-trienoate (23-30) have been prepared in ? 98% overall selectivity.
