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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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.

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

Project description: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.

Metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine.

Project description:A transition metal-free formal synthesis of phenoxazine is presented. The key step of the sequence is a high-yielding O-arylation of a phenol with an unsymmetrical diaryliodonium salt to provide an ortho-disubstituted diaryl ether. This species was cyclized to acetylphenoxazine in moderate yield. The overall yield in the three-step sequence is 72% based on recovered diaryl ether. An interesting, unusually stable iodine(III) intermediate in the O-arylation was observed by NMR and could be converted to the product upon longer reaction time.

Protecting group-free, selective cross-coupling of alkyltrifluoroborates with borylated aryl bromides via photoredox/nickel dual catalysis.

Project description:Orthogonal reactivity modes offer substantial opportunities for rapid construction of complex small molecules. However, most strategies for imparting orthogonality to cross-coupling reactions rely on differential protection of reactive sites, greatly reducing both atom and step economies. Reported here is a strategy for orthogonal cross-coupling wherein a mechanistically distinct activation mode for transmetalation of sp(3)-hybridized organoboron reagents enables C-C bond formation in the presence of various protected and unprotected sp(2)-hybridized organoborons. This manifold has the potential for broad application, because orthogonality is inherent to the activation mode itself. The diversification potential of this platform is shown in the rapid elaboration of a trifunctional lynchpin through various transition metal-catalyzed processes without nonproductive deprotection or functional group manipulation steps.

Ppm Cu Catalyst Enables tert-Alkylation Followed by C-H Cyclization To Synthesize Substituted Oxindoles.

Project description:In this paper, we established highly efficient Cu-catalyzed tandem tert-alkylation C-H cyclization of α-bromocarbonyls and methacrylamides to produce substituted oxindoles. The maximum turnover number was up to 48 000 with reasonable yield. Although the catalyst loadings were very low, the reaction was not involving radical chain reaction. The resulting oxindoles were able to transform into aza-multicyclic compound via a reduction.

Catalyst-controlled formal [4 + 3] cycloaddition applied to the total synthesis of (+)-barekoxide and (-)-barekol.

Project description:The tandem cyclopropanation/Cope rearrangement between bicyclic dienes and siloxyvinyldiazoacetate, catalyzed by the dirhodium catalyst Rh(2)(R-PTAD)(4), effectively accomplishes enantiodivergent [4 + 3] cycloadditions. The reaction proceeds by a cyclopropanation followed by a Cope rearrangement of the resulting divinylcyclopropane. This methodology was applied to the synthesis of (+)-barekoxide (1) and (-)-barekol (2).

Catalyst-free reductive cyclization of bis(2-aminophenyl) disulfide with CO2 in the presence of BH3NH3 to synthesize 2-unsubstituted benzothiazole derivatives.

Project description:An efficient and catalyst-free methodology for the reductive cyclization of various disulfides using BH3NH3 as a reductant and CO2 as a C1 resource was developed. The desired 2-unsubstituted benzothiazole derivatives were obtained in good to excellent yields. Moreover, mechanism investigation demonstrated that BH3NH3 played an important role in the formation of benzothiazole. As a reducing agent, BH3NH3 reduced CO2 and cleaved the S-S bond of the disulfide efficiently. In addition, the N-H bond of the amino group was also activated by BH3NH3. To the best of our knowledge, this is an unprecedented catalyst-free protocol for the synthesis of 2-unsubstituted benzothiazole from bis(2-aminophenyl) disulfide and CO2.

Metal-free intermolecular formal cycloadditions enable an orthogonal access to nitrogen heterocycles.

Project description:Nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic cores are ubiquitous building blocks in organic chemistry. Herein, we present a family of metal-free intermolecular formal cycloaddition reactions that enable highly selective and orthogonal access to isoquinolines and pyrimidines at will. Applications of the products are complemented by a density functional theory mechanistic analysis that pinpoints the crucial factors responsible for the selectivity observed, including stoichiometry and the nature of the heteroalkyne.

Growth Mechanism of SmB6 Nanowires Synthesized by Chemical Vapor Deposition: Catalyst-Assisted and Catalyst-Free.

Project description:SmB6 nanowires, as a prototype of nanostructured topological Kondo insulator, have shown rich novel physical phenomena relating to their surface. Catalyst-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is a common approach to prepare SmB6 nanowires and Ni is the most popular catalyst used to initiate the growth of SmB6 nanowires. Here, we study the effect of growth mechanism on the surface of SmB6 nanowires synthesized by CVD. Two types of SmB6 nanowires are obtained when using Ni as the catalyst. In addition to pure SmB6 nanowires without Ni impurity, a small amount of Ni is detected on the surface of some SmB6 nanowires by element analysis with transmission electron microscopy. In order to eliminate the possible distribution of Ni on nanowire surface, we synthesize single crystalline SmB6 nanowires by CVD without using catalyst. The difference between catalyst-assisted and catalyst-free growth mechanism is discussed.
