Intramolecular hydride transfer onto arynes: redox-neutral and transition metal-free C(sp3)-H functionalization of amines.

ABSTRACT: Transition metal-free intramolecular hydride transfer onto arynes is reported for the first time. This unique transformation is utilized in redox-neutral intermolecular ?-functionalization reactions of different tertiary amines, generating C(sp3)-C(sp3/sp2/sp) bonds in a single synthetic operation. Deuterium labeling studies support initial cleavage of the ?-C-H bond via intramolecular 1,5-hydride transfer onto the aryne, which leads to activation of a range of integrated pronucleophiles and ultimately affords a new approach to cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions which utilize aryne intermediates.

Transition metal-free intramolecular hydride transfer onto arynes is reported for the first time. This unique transformation is utilized in redox-neutral intermolecular α-functionalization reactions of different tertiary amines, generating C(sp3)-C(sp3/sp2/sp) bonds in a single synthetic operation. Deuterium labeling studies support initial cleavage of the α-C-H bond via intramolecular 1,5-hydride transfer onto the aryne, which leads to activation of a ran ...[more]

Intramolecular [3 + 2]-cycloadditions of azomethine ylides derived from secondary amines via redox-neutral C-H functionalization.

Project description:Azomethine ylides are accessed under mild conditions via benzoic acid catalyzed condensations of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines or tryptolines with aldehydes bearing a pendent dipolarophile. These intermediates undergo intramolecular [3 + 2]-cycloadditions in a highly diastereoselective fashion to form polycyclic amines with four new stereogenic centers. Challenging substrates such as piperidine, morpholine, and thiomorpholine undergo the corresponding reactions at elevated temperatures.

Redox-neutral ?-C-H bond functionalization of secondary amines with concurrent C-P bond formation/N-alkylation.

Project description:Redox-neutral formation of C-P bonds in the ?-position of amines was achieved via a process that features a combination of an oxidative ?-C-H bond functionalization and a reductive N-alkylation. Benzoic acid functions as an efficient catalyst in this three-component reaction of cyclic secondary amines, aldehydes and phosphine oxides to provide rapid access to ?-amino phosphine oxides not easily accessible by classic Kabachnik-Fields reactions.

Redox-neutral α,β-difunctionalization of cyclic amines.

Project description:In contrast to the continuously growing number of methods that allow for the efficient α-functionalization of amines, few strategies exist that enable the direct functionalization of amines in the β-position. A general redox-neutral strategy is outlined for amine β-functionalization and α,β-difunctionalization that utilizes enamines generated in situ. This concept is demonstrated in the context of preparing polycyclic N,O-acetals from simple 1-(aminomethyl)-β-naphthols and 2-(aminomethyl)-phenols.

Project description:Cyclic amines such as pyrrolidine and piperidine are known to undergo condensations with aldehydes to furnish pyrrole and pyridine derivatives, respectively. A combined experimental and computational study provides detailed insights into the mechanism of pyrrole formation. A number of reactive intermediates (e.g., azomethine ylides, conjugated azomethine ylides, enamines) were intercepted, outlining strategies for circumventing aromatization as a valuable pathway for amine C-H functionalization.

C-H bond functionalization via hydride transfer: Lewis acid catalyzed alkylation reactions by direct intramolecular coupling of sp3 C-H bonds and reactive alkenyl oxocarbenium intermediates.

Project description:C-H bond functionalization enables strategically new approaches to the synthesis of complex organic molecules including biologically active compounds, research probes and functional organic materials. To address the shortcomings of transition metal catalyzed processes, we have developed a new approach to direct coupling of sp(3) C-H bonds and alkenes based on Lewis acid-promoted hydride transfer. Activation of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones with Lewis acid triggers intramolecular hydride transfer, leading to a zwitterionic intermediate, which in turn undergoes ionic cyclization to afford the cyclic alkylation product. The scope of this method is expanded by the generation of alkenyl-oxocarbenium species as highly activated alkene intermediates capable of abstracting a hydride from unreactive carbon centers, including benzyl-, allyl-, and crotyl-ethers, as well as primary alkyl ethers, at room temperature. The alkenyl acetal and ketal substrates show dramatically faster rates of cyclization, as well as improved chemical yield and diastereoselectivity, compared to the corresponding carbonyl compounds. Furthermore, the use of boron trifluoride etherate as the Lewis acid and ethylene glycol as the organocatalyst provides a highly active catalytic system, presumably via the in situ formation of alkenyl-oxocarbenium intermediates, which eliminates the need for expensive transition metal Lewis acids or the preparation of ketal substrates. This binary catalytic system greatly improves the efficiency of the hydride transfer-initiated alkylation reactions.

Copper-catalyzed diastereoselective aerobic intramolecular dehydrogenative coupling of hydrazones via sp3 C-H functionalization.

Project description:Transition metal-catalyzed cross dehydrogenative coupling is an important tool for functionalization of the ? Csp3-H bond of amines. Among this reaction category, copper-catalyzed selective C-C bond formation under atmospheric O2 is of considerable research interest and significant progress has been achieved in recent years. In comparison, development of the intramolecular version of this transformation is still in its infancy. Furthermore, diastereoselective cyclization with this transformation has not been achieved. Here, we describe the highly diastereoselective intramolecular dehydrogenative cyclization of N,N-disubstituted hydrazones by a copper-catalyzed sp3 C-H bond functionalization process. The reaction protocol utilizes O2 as the oxidant and shows great functional group compatibility. Computational studies suggest that a 5-center/6-electron disrotatory cyclization mechanism is probably involved in the process for controlling the diastereoselectivity. This work represents the first example of a copper-catalyzed, direct intramolecular diastereoselective coupling reaction via an iminium ion intermediate. Additionally, it provides an environmentally friendly and atom efficient approach to access substituted pyrazolines, an important structural unit in many biologically active compounds.

Project description:Secondary amines react with thiosalicylaldehydes in the presence of catalytic amounts of acetic acid to generate ring-fused N,S-acetals in redox-neutral fashion. A broad range of amines undergo ?-sulfenylation, including challenging substrates such morpholine, thiomorpholine, and piperazines. Computational studies employing density functional theory indicate that acetic acid reduces the energy barriers of two separate steps, both of which involve proton transfer.
