Direct Assembly of Prenylated Heteroarenes through a Cascade Minisci Reaction/Dehydration Sequence.

ABSTRACT: The prenyl group is an important component in bioactive compounds. Herein, we report the assembly of prenylated heteroarenes through a cascade Minisci reaction and acid-promoted dehydration sequence. The use of potassium (3-hydroxy-3-methylbut-1-yl)trifluoroborate as a new coupling reagent allows the direct introduction of prenyl and 3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl groups to a wide variety of electron-deficient heteroarenes. Synthetic application is also demonstrated.

Direct ?-arylation of ethers through the combination of photoredox-mediated C-H functionalization and the Minisci reaction.

Project description:The direct ?-arylation of cyclic and acyclic ethers with heteroarenes has been accomplished through the design of a photoredox-mediated C?H functionalization pathway. Transiently generated ?-oxyalkyl radicals, produced from a variety of widely available ethers through hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), were coupled with a range of electron-deficient heteroarenes in a Minisci-type mechanism. This mild, visible-light-driven protocol allows direct access to medicinal pharmacophores of broad utility using feedstock substrates and a commercial photocatalyst.

General electrochemical Minisci alkylation of <i>N</i>-heteroarenes with alkyl halides.

Project description:Herein, we report, a general, facile and environmentally friendly Minisci-type alkylation of N-heteroarenes under simple and straightforward electrochemical conditions using widely available alkyl halides as radical precursors. Primary, secondary and tertiary alkyl radicals have been shown to be efficiently generated and coupled with a large variety of N-heteroarenes. The method presents a very high functional group tolerance, including various heterocyclic-based natural products, which highlights the robustness of the methodology. This applicability has been further proved in the synthesis of various interesting biologically valuable building blocks. In addition, we have proposed a mechanism based on different proofs and pieces of electrochemical evidence.

Direct synthesis of sila-benzoazoles through hydrosilylation and rearrangement cascade reaction of benzoazoles and silanes.

Project description:Sila-isosteres have attracted increasing attention due to their potential application in a variety of fields and their different properties compared to their carbon-containing analogs. However, the preparation of these silicon-containing compound remains challenging and thus the development of alternative synthetic methodologies is desirable. Here, we employ B(C6F5)3 as catalyst to enable the synthesis of highly functionalized sila-benzoazoles via hydrosilylation and rearrangement cascade reaction of benzoazoles and commercially available silanes. This strategy also exhibits remarkable features such as 100% atom-economy, good functional group tolerance, broad substrate scope, easy scale-up and good catalytic performance, demonstrating its potential application in sila-isostere synthesis.

Rapid access to polycyclic N-heteroarenes from unactivated, simple azines via a base-promoted Minisci-type annulation.

Project description:Conventional synthetic methods to yield polycyclic heteroarenes have largely relied on metal-mediated arylation reactions requiring pre-functionalised substrates. However, the functionalisation of unactivated azines has been restricted because of their intrinsic low reactivity. Herein, we report a transition-metal-free, radical relay π-extension approach to produce N-doped polycyclic aromatic compounds directly from simple azines and cyclic iodonium salts. Mechanistic and electron paramagnetic resonance studies provide evidence for the in situ generation of organic electron donors, while chemical trapping and electrochemical experiments implicate an iodanyl radical intermediate serving as a formal biaryl radical equivalent. This intermediate, formed by one-electron reduction of the cyclic iodonium salt, acts as the key intermediate driving the Minisci-type arylation reaction. The synthetic utility of this radical-based annulative π-extension method is highlighted by the preparation of an N-doped heptacyclic nanographene fragment through fourfold C-H arylation.

Photoredox-mediated Minisci C-H alkylation of <i>N</i>-heteroarenes using boronic acids and hypervalent iodine.

Project description:A photoredox-mediated Minisci C-H alkylation reaction of N-heteroarenes with alkyl boronic acids is reported. A broad range of primary and secondary alkyl groups can be efficiently incorporated into various N-heteroarenes using [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2 as photocatalyst and acetoxybenziodoxole as oxidant under mild conditions. The reaction exhibits excellent substrate scope and functional group tolerance, and offers a broadly applicable method for late-stage functionalization of complex substrates. Mechanistic experiments and computational studies suggest that an intramolecularly stabilized ortho-iodobenzoyloxy radical intermediate might play a key role in this reaction system.

Hydrogen Atom Transfer-Driven Enantioselective Minisci Reaction of Amides.

Project description:Minisci-type reactions constitute one of the most powerful methods for building up complexity around basic heteroarenes. The most desirable variants involve formal oxidative coupling of a C-H bond on each partner, leading back to the simplest possible starting materials. We herein disclose a method that enables such a coupling of linear amides and heteroarenes with full control of enantioselectivity at the newly formed stereocenter as well as site selectivity on both the heteroarene and the amide. This is achieved by the use of a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst in conjunction with diacetyl as a combined hydrogen atom transfer reagent and oxidant. Diacetyl is directly photoexcitable, and thus, no extraneous photocatalyst is required: an added feature that contributes to the simplicity and practicality of the protocol.

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.

Direct Minisci-Type C-H Amidation of Purine Bases.

Project description:A method for the C-H carboxyamidation of purines has been developed that is capable of directly installing primary, secondary, and tertiary amides. Previous Minisci-type investigations on purines were limited to alkylations and arylations. Herein, we present the first method for the direct C-H amidation of a wide range of purines: xanthine, guanine, and adenine structures, including guanosine- and adenosine-type nucleosides. The Minisci-type reaction is also metal-free, cheap, operationally simple, scalable, and applicable to late-stage functionalizations of biologically important molecules.

A Visible Light-Driven Minisci-Type Reaction with N-Hydroxyphthalimide Esters.

Project description:A visible light-promoted protocol for the redox-neutral coupling of N-hydroxyphthalimide esters with different N-heterocyclic compounds is described. The reaction proceeds through an alkyl radical intermediate generated by reductive decarboxylation of N-hydroxyphthalimide esters. In contrast to the original Minisci protocol, polyalkylation can largely be avoided. Mechanistic investigations revealed a radical chain mechanism which in some cases can proceed even if no photocatalyst is added. This valuable and functional group-tolerant reaction produces substituted heterocycles in moderate to excellent yield. The use of inexpensive starting materials and LEDs as the light source are key features of this C-C bond formation.

Stereodivergent assembly of tetrahydro-γ-carbolines via synergistic catalytic asymmetric cascade reaction.

Project description:Enantiomerically enriched indole-containing heterocycles play a vital role in bioscience, medicine, and chemistry. As one of the most attractive subtypes of indole alkaloids, highly substituted tetrahydro-γ-carbolines are the basic structural unit in many natural products and pharmaceuticals. However, the syntheses of tetrahydro-γ-carbolines with high functionalities from readily available reagents are significant challenging. In particular, the stereodivergent syntheses of tetrahydro-γ-carbolines containing multi-stereogenic centers remain quite difficult. Herein, we report an expedient and stereodivergent assembly of tetrahydro-γ-carbolines with remarkably high levels of stereoselective control in an efficient cascade process from aldimine esters and indolyl allylic carbonates via a synergistic Cu/Ir catalyst system. Control experiments-guided optimization of synergistic catalysts and mechanistic investigations reveal that a stereodivergent allylation reaction and a subsequent highly stereoselective iso-Pictet-Spengler cyclization are the key elements to success.
