The mechanism of directed Ni(ii)-catalyzed C-H iodination with molecular iodine.

ABSTRACT: The density functional theory method is used to elucidate the elementary steps of Ni(ii)-catalyzed C(sp2)-H iodination with I2 and substrates bearing N,N'-bidentate directing centers, amide-oxazoline (AO) and 8-aminoquinoline (AQ). The relative stability of the lowest energy high- and low-spin electronic states of the catalyst and intermediates is found to be an important factor for all of the steps in the reaction. As a result, two-state reactivity for these systems is reported, where the reaction is initiated on the triplet surface and generates a high energy singlet nickelacycle. It is shown that the addition of Na2CO3 base to the reaction mixture facilitates C-H activation. The presence of I2 in the reaction provides the much needed driving force for the C-H activation and nickelacycle formation and ultimately reacts to form a new C-I bond through either a redox neutral electrophilic cleavage (EC) pathway or a one-electron reductive cleavage (REC) pathway. The previously proposed Ni(ii)/Ni(iv) and homolytic cleavage pathways are found to be higher in energy. The nature of the substrate is found to have a large impact on the relative stability of the lowest electronic states and on the stability of the nickelacycle resulting from C-H activation.

Nickel-catalyzed, silyl-directed, ortho-borylation of arenes via an unusual Ni(II)/Ni(IV) catalytic cycle.

Project description:Nickel-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization reactions provide an impressive alternative to those with noble metal catalysts due to their unique reactivity and low cost. However, the regioselective C(sp2)-H borylation reaction of arenes accomplished by nickel catalyst remains limited. We herein disclose a silyl-directed ortho C(sp2)-H borylation of substituted arenes with a Ni(cod)2/PMe3/KHMDS catalyst system. Using readily available starting materials, this protocol provides easy access to ortho-borylated benzylic hydrosilanes bearing flexible substitution patterns. These products can serve as versatile building blocks for the synthesis of sila or sila/borine heterocycles under mild conditions. Control experiments and DFT calculations suggest that a catalytic amount of base prompts the formation of Ni(II)-Bpin-ate complex, likely related to the C(sp2)-H bond activation. This borylation reaction might follow an unusual Ni(II)/Ni(IV) catalytic cycle.

Experimental and Theoretical Study on the "2,2'-Bipiridyl-Ni-Catalyzed" Hirao Reaction of >P(O)H Reagents and Halobenzenes: A Ni(0) → Ni(II) or a Ni(II) → Ni(IV) Mechanism?

Project description:It was found by us that the P-C coupling reaction of >P(O)H reagents with PhX (X = I and Br) in the presence of NiCl2/Zn as the precursors for the assumed Ni(0) complexant together with 2,2'-bipyridine as the ligand took place only with PhI at 50/70 °C. M06-2X/6-31G(d,p)//PCM(MeCN) calculations for the reaction of Ph2P(O)H and PhX revealed a favorable energetics only for the loss of iodide following the oxidative addition of PhI on the Ni(0) atom. However, the assumed transition states with Ni(II) formed after P-ligand uptake and deprotonation could not undergo reductive elimination meaning a "dead-end route". Hence, it was assumed that the initial complexation of the remaining Ni2+ ions with 2,2'-bipyridine may move the P-C coupling forward via a Ni(II) → Ni(IV) transition. This route was also confirmed by calculations, and this mechanism was justified by preparative experiments carried out using NiCl2/bipyridine in the absence of Zn. Hence, the generally accepted Ni(0) → Ni(II) route was refuted by us, confirming the generality of the Ni(II) → N(IV) protocol, either in the presence of bipyridine, or using the excess of the >P(O)H reagent as the P-ligand. The results of the calculations on the complex forming ability of Ni(0) and Ni(II) with 2,2'-bipyridine or the P-reagents were in accord with our mechanistic proposition.

Ni(II)-catalyzed asymmetric alkenylations of ketimines.

Project description:Chiral allylic amines are not only present in many bioactive compounds, but can also be readily transformed to other chiral amines. Therefore, the asymmetric synthesis of chiral allylic amines is highly desired. Herein, we report two types of Ni(II)-catalyzed asymmetric alkenylation of cyclic ketimines for the preparation of chiral allylic amines. When ketimines bear alkyl or alkoxycarbonyl groups, the alkenylation gives five- and six-membered cyclic ?-tertiary allylic amine products with excellent yields and enantioselectivities under mild reaction conditions. A variety of ketimines can be used and the method tolerates some variation in alkenylboronic acid scope. Furthermore, with alkenyl five-membered ketimine substrates, an alkenylation/rearrangement reaction occurs, providing seven-membered chiral sulfamide products bearing a conjugated diene skeleton with excellent yields and enantioselectivities. Mechanistic studies reveal that the ring expansion step is a stereospecific site-selective process, which can be catalyzed by acid (Lewis acid or Brønsted acid).

Mechanism of the Ni(0)-catalyzed vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement.

Project description:A combination of physical organic experiments and quantum chemical calculations were used to construct a detailed mechanistic model for the Ni(0)-N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement that involves a mutistep oxidative addition/haptotropic shift/reductive elimination pathway. No evidence for the intermediacy of radicals or zwitterions was found. The roles of substituents on the vinylcyclopropane substrate and variations in the ligands on Ni were evaluated. It is postulated that bulky carbene ligands facilitate formation of the active catalyst species.

Mechanism of Ni-Catalyzed Reductive 1,2-Dicarbofunctionalization of Alkenes.

Project description:Ni-catalyzed cross-electrophile coupling reactions have emerged as appealing methods to construct organic molecules without the use of stoichiometric organometallic reagents. The mechanisms are complex: plausible pathways, such as "radical chain" and "sequential reduction" mechanisms, are dependent on the sequence of the activation of electrophiles. A combination of kinetic, spectroscopic, and organometallic studies reveals that a Ni-catalyzed, reductive 1,2-dicarbofunctionalization of alkenes proceeds through a "sequential reduction" pathway. The reduction of Ni by Zn is the turnover-limiting step, consistent with Ni(II) intermediates as the catalyst resting-state. Zn is only sufficient to reduce (phen)Ni(II) to a Ni(I) species. As a result, commonly proposed Ni(0) intermediates are absent under these conditions. (Phen)Ni(I)-Br selectively activates aryl bromides via two-electron oxidation addition, whereas alkyl bromides are activated by (phen)Ni(I)-Ar through single-electron activation to afford radicals. These findings could provide insight into achieving selectivity between different electrophiles.

Electrochemically Driven, Ni-Catalyzed Aryl Amination: Scope, Mechanism, and Applications.

Project description:C-N cross-coupling is one of the most valuable and widespread transformations in organic synthesis. Largely dominated by Pd- and Cu-based catalytic systems, it has proven to be a staple transformation for those in both academia and industry. The current study presents the development and mechanistic understanding of an electrochemically driven, Ni-catalyzed method for achieving this reaction of high strategic importance. Through a series of electrochemical, computational, kinetic, and empirical experiments, the key mechanistic features of this reaction have been unraveled, leading to a second generation set of conditions that is applicable to a broad range of aryl halides and amine nucleophiles including complex examples on oligopeptides, medicinally relevant heterocycles, natural products, and sugars. Full disclosure of the current limitations and procedures for both batch and flow scale-ups (100 g) are also described.
