Copper-Catalyzed Alkylation of Nitroalkanes with ?-Bromonitriles: Synthesis of ?-Cyanonitroalkanes.

ABSTRACT: Copper catalysis now enables the efficient C-alkylation of nitroalkanes with ?-bromonitriles. Using a simple and inexpensive catalyst, this process provides access to ?-cyanonitroalkanes. The method is highly tolerant of various functional groups and substitution patterns. These functionally dense products serve as orthogonally masked 1,3-diamines, which can be revealed selectively for access to differentially substituted diamines. These products can also be exploited for the formation of complex cyanoalkenes and 5-aminoisoxazoles.

Benzylation of nitroalkanes using copper-catalyzed thermal redox catalysis: toward the facile C-alkylation of nitroalkanes.

Project description:The C-alkylation of nitroalkanes under mild conditions has been a significant challenge in organic synthesis for more than a century. Herein we report a simple Cu(I) catalyst, generated in situ, that is highly effective for C-benzylation of nitroalkanes using abundant benzyl bromides and related heteroaromatic compounds. This process, which we believe proceeds via a thermal redox mechanism, allows access to a variety of complex nitroalkanes under mild reaction conditions and represents the first step toward the development of a general catalytic system for the alkylation of nitroalkanes.

Nickel-Catalyzed Asymmetric C-Alkylation of Nitroalkanes: Synthesis of Enantioenriched β-Nitroamides.

Project description:A general catalytic method for asymmetric C-alkylation of nitroalkanes using nickel catalysis is described. This method enables the formation of highly enantioenriched β-nitroamides from readily available α-bromoamides using mild reaction conditions that are compatible with a wide range of functional groups. When combined with subsequent reactions, this method allows access to highly enantioenriched products with nitrogen-bearing fully substituted carbon centers.

Copper-Catalyzed Propargylation of Nitroalkanes.

Project description:Using a commercially available, inexpensive, and abundant copper catalyst system, an efficient α-functionalization of nitroalkanes with propargyl bromides is now established. This mild and robust method is highly functional group tolerant and provides straightforward access to complex secondary and tertiary homopropargylic nitroalkanes. Moreover, the utility of these α-propargylated nitroalkanes is demonstrated through downstream functionalization to biologically relevant, five-membered N-heterocycles such as pyrroles and 2-pyrrolines.

Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Aminoboronic Acid Derivatives via Copper-Catalyzed N-Alkylation.

Project description:Due to burgeoning interest in the pharmaceutical industry in exploiting optically active α-aminoboronic derivatives as bioisosteres of α-amino acid derivatives, the discovery of methods for their catalytic asymmetric synthesis is an important challenge. Herein, we establish that a chiral copper catalyst (generated in situ from commercially available components) can achieve the enantioselective synthesis of α-aminoboronic derivatives via the coupling of two readily available partners, a carbamate and a racemic α-chloroboronate ester. Furthermore, we describe mechanistic studies that played a key role in the development of this new method and that provide insight into the optimized process.

Copper-catalyzed direct alkylation of heteroarenes.

Project description:An efficient and broadly applicable process is reported for the direct alkylation of C-H bonds in heteroarenes, privileged scaffolds in many areas of science. This reaction is based on the copper-catalyzed addition of alkyl radicals generated from activated secondary and tertiary alkyl bromides to a wide range of arenes, including furans, thiophenes, pyrroles, and their benzo-fused derivatives, as well as coumarins and quinolinones.

Copper-Catalyzed Enantioselective Allylic Alkylation with a ?-Butyrolactone-Derived Silyl Ketene Acetal.

Project description:Herein, we report a Cu-catalyzed enantioselective allylic alkylation using a ?-butyrolactone-derived silyl ketene acetal. Critical to the development of this work was the identification of a novel mono-picolinamide ligand with the appropriate steric and electronic properties to afford the desired products in high yield (up to 96?%) and high ee (up to 95?%). Aryl, aliphatic, and unsubstituted allylic chlorides bearing a broad range of functionality are well-tolerated. Spectroscopic studies reveal that a CuI species is likely the active catalyst, and DFT calculations suggest ligand sterics play an important role in determining Cu coordination and thus catalyst geometry.

Effective synthesis of bicyclodienes via palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation and ruthenium-catalyzed cycloisomerization.

Project description:[n.3.0]Bicycles (n = 3-6) can be synthesized using palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation followed by ruthenium-catalyzed cycloisomerization. New types of triarylphosphino-1,2-diaminooxazoline ligands show the same high levels of enantioselectivity observed with Trost ligand when employed in Pd-catalyzed allylic alkylation reactions. The enyne products of these allylic alkylation reactions were further elaborated using a Ru-catalyzed redox isomerization process, for which a mechanism is proposed.

Towards a Catalytic Atroposelective Synthesis of Diaryl Ethers via C(<i>sp</i> <sup>2</sup>)-H Alkylation Using Nitroalkanes.

Project description:Herein we report studies towards a small molecule catalytic approach to access atropisomeric diaryl ethers that proceeds via a C(sp 2)-H alkylation using nitroalkanes as the alkyl source. A quaternary ammonium salt derived from quinine containing a sterically hindered urea at the C-9 position was found to effect atroposelective C(sp 2)-H alkylation with moderate to good enantioselectivities across several naphthoquinone-containing diaryl ethers. Products can then be isolated in greater than 95:5 er after one round of trituration. For several substrates that were evaluated we observed a 'nitroethylated' product in similar yields and selectivities.

Open-Air Alkylation Reactions in Photoredox-Catalyzed DNA-Encoded Library Synthesis.

Project description:DNA-encoded library (DEL) technology is a powerful tool commonly used by the pharmaceutical industry for the identification of compounds with affinity to biomolecular targets. Success in this endeavor lies in sampling diverse chemical libraries. However, current DELs tend to be deficient in C(sp3) carbon counts. We report unique solutions to the challenge of increasing both the chemical diversity of these libraries and their C(sp3) carbon counts by merging Ni/photoredox dual catalytic C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross-coupling as well as photoredox-catalyzed radical/polar crossover alkylation protocols with DELs. The successful integration of multiple classes of radical sources enables the rapid incorporation of a diverse set of alkyl fragments.
