Oxyboration with and without a Catalyst: Borylated Isoxazoles via B-O σ-Bond Addition.

ABSTRACT: Herein we report an oxyboration reaction with activated substrates that employs B-O σ bond additions to C-C π bonds to form borylated isoxazoles, which are potential building blocks for drug discovery. Although this reaction can be effectively catalyzed by gold, it is the first example of uncatalyzed oxyboration of C-C π bonds by B-O σ bonds--and only the second example that is catalyzed. This oxyboration reaction is tolerant of groups incompatible with alternative lithiation/borylation and palladium-catalyzed C-H activation/borylation technologies for the synthesis of borylated isoxazoles.

Catalyst-Free Synthesis of Borylated Lactones from Esters via Electrophilic Oxyboration.

Project description:A catalyst-free oxyboration reaction of alkynes is developed. The resulting borylated isocoumarins and 2-pyrones are isolated as boronic acids, pinacolboronate esters, or potassium organotrifluoroborate salts, providing a variety of bench-stable organoboron building blocks for downstream functionalization. This method has functional group compatibility, is scalable, and proceeds with readily available materials: B-chlorocatecholborane and methyl esters. Mechanistic studies indicate that the B-chlorocatecholborane acts as a carbophilic Lewis acid toward the alkyne, providing a mechanistically distinct pathway for oxyboration that avoids B-O ? bond formation and enables this catalyst-free route.

Preparation of spiro[indole-3,5'-isoxazoles] via Grignard conjugate addition/spirocyclization sequence.

Project description:A highly efficient one-pot procedure combining conjugate addition of Grignard reagents to (2-nitroalkenyl)indoles and sub-sequent Brønsted acid-assisted spirocyclization allowed for preparation of 4'H-spiro[indole-3,5'-isoxazoles] in a diastereomerically selective fashion. Utilization of alkyl Grignard reagents provided an easy access to 4'-alkylsubstituted derivatives hardly available by other means.

Catalyst-Free Formal Thioboration to Synthesize Borylated Benzothiophenes and Dihydrothiophenes.

Project description:The first ring-forming thioboration reaction of C-C ? bonds is reported. This catalyst-free method proceeds in the presence of a commercially available external electrophilic boron source (B-chlorocatecholborane) in good to high yields. The method is scalable and tolerates a variety of functional groups that are intolerant of other major borylation methods. The resulting borylated benzothiophenes participate in a variety of in situ derivatization reactions, showcasing that these borylated intermediates do not need to be isolated prior to downstream functionalization. This methodology has been extended to the synthesis of borylated dihydrothiophenes. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the operative mechanistic pathway is through boron-induced activation of the alkyne followed by electrophilic cyclization, as opposed to S-B ? bond formation, providing a mechanistically distinct pathway to the thioboration of C-C ? bonds.

Enantioselective Michael addition to vinyl phosphonates via hydrogen bond-enhanced halogen bond catalysis.

Project description:An asymmetric Michael addition of malononitrile to vinyl phosphonates was accomplished by hydrogen bond-enhanced bifunctional halogen bond (XB) catalysis. NMR titration experiments were used to demonstrate that halogen bonding, with the support of hydrogen-bonding, played a key role in the activation of the Michael acceptors through the phosphonate group. This is the first example of the use of XBs for the activation of organophosphorus compounds in synthesis. In addition, the iodo-perfluorophenyl group proved to be a better directing unit than different iodo- and nitro-substituted phenyl groups. The developed approach afforded products with up to excellent yields and diastereoselectivities and up to good enantioselectivities.

An atom-economical addition of methyl azaarenes with aromatic aldehydes via benzylic C(sp3)-H bond functionalization under solvent- and catalyst-free conditions.

Project description:A convenient practical approach for the synthesis of 2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethanols by direct benzylic addition of azaarenes and aldehydes under catalyst- and solvent-free conditions is reported. This reaction is metal-free, green, and was carried out in a facile operative environment without using any hazardous transition metal catalysts or any other coupling reagents. Different aromatic aldehydes and azaarenes were monitored, and the yields of the resulting products were moderate to excellent. We accomplished several azaarene derivatives under neat conditions through a highly atom-economical pathway. To evaluate the preparative potential of this process, gram-scale reactions were performed up to a 10 g scale.

Dealkenylative Alkenylation: Formal σ-Bond Metathesis of Olefins.

Project description:The dealkenylative alkenylation of alkene C(sp3 )-C(sp2 ) bonds has been an unexplored area for C-C bond formation. Herein 64 examples of β-alkylated styrene derivatives, synthesized through the reactions of readily accessible feedstock olefins with β-nitrostyrenes by ozone/FeII -mediated radical substitutions, are reported. These reactions proceed with good efficiencies and high stereoselectivities under mild reaction conditions and tolerate an array of functional groups. Also demonstrated is the applicability of the strategy through several synthetic transformations of the products, as well as the syntheses of the natural product iso-moracin and the drug (E)-metanicotine.

Reversible Homolysis of a Carbon-Carbon σ-Bond Enabled by Complexation-Induced Bond-Weakening.

Project description:A case study of catalytic carbon-carbon σ-bond homolysis is presented. The coordination of a redox-active Lewis acid catalyst reduces the bond-dissociation free energies of adjacent carbon-carbon σ-bonds, and this complexation-induced bond-weakening is used to effect reversible carbon-carbon bond homolysis. Stereochemical isomerization of 1,2-disubstituted cyclopropanes was investigated as a model reaction with a ruthenium (III/II) redox couple adopted for bond weakening. Results from our mechanistic investigation into the stereospecificity of the isomerization reaction are consistent with selective complexation-induced carbon-carbon bond homolysis. The ΔG‡ of catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions were estimated to be 14.4 and 40.0 kcal/mol, respectively with the computational method, (U)PBE0-D3/def2-TZVPP-SMD(toluene)//(U)B3LYP-D3/def2-SVP. We report this work as the first catalytic example where the complexation-induced bond-weakening effect is quantified through transition state analysis.

Synthesis of Highly Reactive Ketenimines via Photochemical Rearrangement of Isoxazoles.

Project description:Ketenimines are highly electrophilic species with multiple applications as building blocks in organic synthesis; however, the effective preparation of these versatile entities remains a synthetic challenge. Here we report a continuous photochemical process that generates ketenimines via skeletal rearrangement of trisubstituted isoxazoles. The resulting flow process is noteworthy, as it provides for the first time a straightforward entry into these ketenimines that were previously only observed spectroscopically. The value of this methodology toward heterocyclic transposition reactions is demonstrated by converting isoxazoles via isolable ketenimines into pharmaceutically relevant pyrazoles.

Theory of sigma bond resonance in flat boron materials.

Project description:In chemistry, theory of aromaticity or π bond resonance plays a central role in intuitively understanding the stability and properties of organic molecules. Here we present an analogue theory for σ bond resonance in flat boron materials, which allows us to determine the distribution of two-center two-electron and three-center two-electron bonds without quantum calculations. Based on this theory, three rules are proposed to draw the Kekulé-like bonding configurations for flat boron materials and to explore their properties intuitively. As an application of the theory, a simple explanation of why neutral borophene with ~1/9 hole has the highest stability and the effect of charge doping on borophene's optimal hole concentration is provided with the assumption of σ and π orbital occupation balance. Like the aromaticity theory for carbon materials, this theory greatly deepens our understanding on boron materials and paves the way for the rational design of various boron-based materials.
