Selective and metal-free epoxidation of terminal alkenes by heterogeneous polydioxirane in mild conditions.

ABSTRACT: Polydioxirane (PDOX) was prepared by the treatment of polysalicylaldehyde with Oxone and was found as a selective, highly efficient and heterogeneous reagent for epoxidation of alkenes which can be successfully isolated. This work also introduced a simpler, safer and milder way for epoxidation of alkenes with dioxirane groups than before. PDOX can be simply recovered from the reaction mixture by plain filtration and reused for eight runs without significant reactivity loss.

Metal-free selective mono-halodecarboxylation of heteroarenes under mild conditions.

Project description:The halodecarboxylation of heteroarene carboxylic acids by treatment with N-bromosuccinimide or N-chlorosuccinimide was performed. This procedure provides a convenient route to synthetically useful mono-halogenated heteroarene intermediates such as halo-indoles, -aza-indoles, -indazoles and -aza-indazoles. The mild conditions employed and simple protocol provides an advantage over traditional halodecarboxylation procedures that require expensive and toxic metal catalysts, basic conditions, time-consuming intermediate isolation and elevated reaction temperatures.

Tuning graphitic oxide for initiator- and metal-free aerobic epoxidation of linear alkenes.

Project description:Graphitic oxide has potential as a carbocatalyst for a wide range of reactions. Interest in this material has risen enormously due to it being a precursor to graphene via the chemical oxidation of graphite. Despite some studies suggesting that the chosen method of graphite oxidation can influence the physical properties of the graphitic oxide, the preparation method and extent of oxidation remain unresolved for catalytic applications. Here we show that tuning the graphitic oxide surface can be achieved by varying the amount and type of oxidant. The resulting materials differ in level of oxidation, surface oxygen content and functionality. Most importantly, we show that these graphitic oxide materials are active as unique carbocatalysts for low-temperature aerobic epoxidation of linear alkenes in the absence of initiator or metal. An optimum level of oxidation is necessary and materials produced via conventional permanganate-based methods are far from optimal.

Selective Hydroboration-Oxidation of Terminal Alkenes under Flow Conditions.

Project description:An efficient flow process for the selective hydroboration and oxidation of different alkenes using 9-borabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane (9-BBN) allows facile conversion in high productivity (1.4 g h-1 ) of amorpha-4,11-diene to the corresponding alcohol, which is an advanced intermediate in the synthesis of the antimalarial drug artemisinin. The in situ reaction of borane and 1,5-cyclooctadiene using a simple flow generator proved to be a cost efficient solution for the generation of 9-BBN.

Mild, Efficient, and Metal-Free Radical 1,2-Dithiocyanation of Alkynes and Alkenes at Room Temperature.

Project description:A transition metal-free process has been reported for 1,2-dithiocyanation of alkynes in the presence of sodium persulfate and potassium thiocyanate reagent combination in a short reaction time under ambient air. Styrene derivatives are equally applicable under the same reaction conditions. Monothiocyanated vinyl derivatives were also synthesized from 2-ethynylpyridine and dimethyl acetylene dicarboxylate. The reaction proceeds by the radical/polar pathway as evidenced from our experiments and literature. After removal of the solvent from the reaction mixture by evaporation, the crude product was purified without conventional workup.

Light-Driven Metal-Free Direct Deoxygenation of Alcohols under Mild Conditions.

Project description:Hydroxyl is widely found in organic molecules as functional group and its deprivation plays an inevitable role in organic synthesis. However, the direct cleavage of Csp3-O bond in alcohols with high selectivity and efficiency, especially without the assistance of metal catalyst, has been a formidable challenge because of its strong bond dissociation energy and unfavorable thermodynamics. Herein, an efficient metal-free strategy that enables direct deoxygenation of alcohols has been developed for the first time, with hydrazine as the reductant induced by light. This protocol features mild reaction conditions, excellent functional group tolerance, and abundant and easily available starting materials, rendering selective deoxygenation of a variety of 1° and 2° alcohols, vicinal diols, and β-1 and even β-O-4 models of natural wood lignin. This strategy is also highlighted by its "traceless" and non-toxic by-products N2 and H2, as readily escapable gases. Mechanistic studies demonstrated dimethyl sulfide being a key intermediate in this transformation.

Electrophilic Vinylation of Thiols under Mild and Transition Metal-Free Conditions.

Project description:The iodine(III) reagents vinylbenziodoxolones (VBX) were employed to vinylate a series of aliphatic and aromatic thiols, providing E-alkenyl sulfides with complete chemo- and regioselectivity, as well as excellent stereoselectivity. The methodology displays high functional group tolerance and proceeds under mild and transition metal-free conditions without the need for excess substrate or reagents. Mercaptothiazoles could be vinylated under modified conditions, resulting in opposite stereoselectivity compared to previous reactions with vinyliodonium salts. Novel VBX reagents with substituted benziodoxolone cores were prepared, and improved reactivity was discovered with a dimethyl-substituted core.

Regiospecific N-Arylation of Aliphatic Amines under Mild and Metal-Free Reaction Conditions.

Project description:A transition metal-free N-arylation of primary and secondary amines with diaryliodonium salts is presented. Both acyclic and cyclic amines are well tolerated, providing a large set of N-alkyl anilines. The methodology is unprecedented among metal-free methods in terms of amine scope, the ability to transfer both electron-withdrawing and electron-donating aryl groups, and efficient use of resources, as excess substrate or reagents are not required.

Metal-Free Direct C-H Cyanation of Alkenes.

Project description:A metal-free and direct alkene C-H cyanation is described. Directing groups are not required and the mechanism involves electrophilic activation of the alkene by a cyano iodine(III) species generated in situ from a [bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo]arene and trimethylsilyl cyanide as the cyanide source. This C-H functionalization can be conducted on gram scale, and for noncyclic 1,1- and 1,2-disubstuted alkenes high stereoselectivity is achieved, thus rendering the method highly valuable.

Project description:A method for transition metal-free 1,2-carboboration of unactivated alkenes with bis(catecholato)diboron as the boron source in combination with alkyl halides as the alkyl component is introduced. The three-component reaction proceeds via a radical pathway on a broad range of unactivated alkenes, and the 1,2-carboboration products serve as valuable synthetic building blocks. Density functional theory calculations provide insights into the mechanism.

Metal-free Chlorothiolation of Alkenes using HCl and Sulfoxides.

Project description:We report a novel method for the chlorothiolation of alkenes using HCl and sulfoxides to achieve the 1,2-difunctionalization of unactivated alkenes. The combination of our new HCl reagent (HCl/DMPU) with sulfoxides forms a unique chlorothiolation system. Both terminal and internal alkenes are suitable substrates. This method works at gram scale and is applicable in further synthetic elaborations.
