Pyridine-enabled copper-promoted cross dehydrogenative coupling of C(sp2)-H and unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds.

ABSTRACT: The pyridine-enabled cross dehydrogenative coupling of sp2 C-H bonds of polyfluoroarenes and unactivated sp3 C-H bonds of amides was achieved via a copper-promoted process with good functional group compatibility. This reaction showed great site-selectivity by favoring the sp2 C-H bonds ortho to two fluoro atoms of arenes and the sp3 C-H bonds of ?-methyl groups over those of the ?-methylene, ?- or ?-methyl groups of the aliphatic amides. Mechanistic studies revealed that sp3 C-H bond cleavage is an irreversible but not the rate-determining step, and the sp2 C-H functionalization of arenes appears precedent to the sp3 C-H functionalization of amides in this process.

The pyridine-enabled cross dehydrogenative coupling of sp2 C-H bonds of polyfluoroarenes and unactivated sp3 C-H bonds of amides was achieved via a copper-promoted process with good functional group compatibility. This reaction showed great site-selectivity by favoring the sp2 C-H bonds ortho to two fluoro atoms of arenes and the sp3 C-H bonds of α-methyl groups over those of the α-methylene, β- or γ-methyl groups of the aliphatic amides. ...[more]

Regioselective Alkylative Cross-Coupling of Remote Unactivated C(sp3)-H Bonds.

Project description:The functionalization of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds poses a significant challenge due to their ubiquity and relative similarity in most organic frameworks. Herein, we describe the use of a combined photoredox and nickel catalytic system for the regioselective C(sp3)-C(sp3) coupling of unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds and alkyl bromides. Positional selectivity is dictated by a 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reaction by a pendent amide. Interception of this radical by a Ni catalyst allows distal alkylation to occur in good yield and excellent selectivity.

N-Aminopyridinium Ylide-Directed, Copper-Promoted Amination of sp2 C-H Bonds.

Project description:N-Aminopyridinium ylides are used as monodentate directing groups for copper-promoted C-H/N-H coupling of sp2 C-H bonds with pyrazoles, imidazoles, and sulfonamides. Reactions proceed in fluorinated alcohol solvents at elevated temperatures and require use of 1.3-3 equiv of copper(II) acetate. This appears to be the first method for copper-promoted C-H/N-H coupling directed by a removable monodentate auxiliary in absence of added ligands.

Transition-Metal-Free Radical C(sp3)-C(sp2) and C(sp3)-C(sp3) Coupling Enabled by 2-Azaallyls as Super-Electron-Donors and Coupling-Partners.

Project description:The past decade has witnessed the rapid development of radical generation strategies and their applications in C-C bond-forming reactions. Most of these processes require initiators, transition metal catalysts, or organometallic reagents. Herein, we report the discovery of a simple organic system (2-azaallyl anions) that enables radical coupling reactions under transition-metal-free conditions. Deprotonation of N-benzyl ketimines generates semistabilized 2-azaallyl anions that behave as "super-electron-donors" (SEDs) and reduce aryl iodides and alkyl halides to aryl and alkyl radicals. The SET process converts the 2-azaallyl anions into persistent 2-azaallyl radicals, which capture the aryl and alkyl radicals to form C-C bonds. The radical coupling of aryl and alkyl radicals with 2-azaallyl radicals makes possible the synthesis of functionalized amine derivatives without the use of exogenous radical initiators or transition metal catalysts. Radical clock studies and 2-azaallyl anion coupling studies provide mechanistic insight for this unique reactivity.

Dealkenylative Thiylation of C(sp3)-C(sp2) Bonds.

Project description:Carbon-carbon bond fragmentations are useful methods for the functionalization of molecules. The value of such cleavage events is maximized when paired with subsequent bond formation. Herein we report a protocol for the cleavage of an alkene C(sp3)-C(sp2) bond, followed by the formation of a new C(sp3)-S bond. This reaction is performed in nonanhydrous solvent and open to the air, employs common starting materials, and can be used to rapidly diversify natural products.

Functionalization of remote C(sp3)-H bonds enabled by copper-catalyzed coupling of O-acyloximes with terminal alkynes.

Project description:Transition metal catalyzed Sonogashira cross-coupling of terminal alkynes with aryl(vinyl) (pseudo)halides has been successfully extended to alkyl halides for the synthesis of functionalized internal alkynes. The direct alkynylation of remote unfunctionalized sp3 carbon by terminal alkynes remains difficult to realize. We report herein an approach to this synthetic challenge by developing two catalytic remote sp3 carbon alkynylation protocols. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Cu(I) salt and a tridentate ligand (tBu3-terpyridine), O-acyloximes derived from cycloalkanones and acyclic ketones are efficiently coupled with terminal alkynes to afford a variety of ?- and ?-alkynyl nitriles and ?-alkynyl ketones, respectively. These reactions proceed through a domino sequence involving copper-catalyzed reductive generation of iminyl radical followed by radical translocation via either ?-scission or 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) and copper-catalyzed alkynylation of the resulting translocated carbon radicals. The protocols are applicable to complex natural products.

Palladium-Catalyzed Chemoselective Activation of sp3 vs sp2 C-H Bonds: Oxidative Coupling To Form Quaternary Centers.

Project description:The oxidative activation of alkyl C-H bonds vs arene C-H bonds with Pd(OAc)2 has been found to be generalizable to a number of nucleophilic substrates allowing the formation of a range of hindered quaternary centers. The substrates share a common mechanistic path wherein Pd(II) initiates an oxidative dimerization. The resultant dimer modifies the palladium catalyst to favor activation of alkyl C-H bonds in contrast to the trends typically observed via a concerted metalation deprotonation mechanism. Notably, insertion occurs at the terminus of the alkyl arene for hindered substrates. Two different oxidant systems were discovered that turn over the process. Parameters have been identified that predict, which substrates are productive in this reaction.

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.

Iodine(III) promotes cross-dehydrogenative coupling of N-hydroxyphthalimide and unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds.

Project description:Cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions provide a method to construct new chemical bonds by direct C-H activation without any pre-functionalization. Compared to functionalization of a C-H bond α- to ether oxygen, α- to carbonyl, or at a benzylic position, functionalization of unactivated hydrocarbons is difficult and often requires high temperatures, a transition-metal catalyst, or a superstoichiometric quantity of volatile, toxic, and explosive tert-butylhydroperoxide. Here, a cross-dehydrogenative C-O coupling reaction of N-hydroxyphthalimide with unactivated alkanes, nitriles, ethers, and thioethers has been realized by using iodobenzene diacetate as the radical initiator. The current protocol enables efficient functionalization of unactivated hydrocarbons and nitriles through inert C(sp3)-H bond activation under mild reaction conditions. O-substituted NHPI derivatives are generated in good yields under metal-free conditions.
