A T-shaped Ni[?2-(CF2)4-] NHC complex: unusual Csp3 -F and M-CF bond functionalization reactions.

ABSTRACT: A T-shaped octafluoronickelacyclopentane-NHC complex is prepared and characterized. While the solid-state structure includes a weak isopropyl-CH3 agostic interaction, the reactivity of this complex with Lewis- and Brønsted acids is clearly enhanced by its low coordination number. Reaction with Me3SiOTf, for example, yielded a rare metal-heptafluorocyclobutyl complex whereas carboxylic acids gave substitution at the ?-carbon and/or Ni-CF bond protonolysis to afford thermally robust 4H-octafluorobutyl Ni complexes.

Accelerating the insertion reactions of (NHC)Cu-H via remote ligand functionalization.

Project description:Most ligand designs for reactions catalyzed by (NHC)Cu-H (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene ligand) have focused on introducing steric bulk near the Cu center. Here, we evaluate the effect of remote ligand modification in a series of [(NHC)CuH]2 in which the para substituent (R) on the N-aryl groups of the NHC is Me, Et, t Bu, OMe or Cl. Although the R group is distant (6 bonds away) from the reactive Cu center, the complexes have different spectroscopic signatures. Kinetics studies of the insertion of ketone, aldimine, alkyne, and unactivated α-olefin substrates reveal that Cu-H complexes with bulky or electron-rich R groups undergo faster substrate insertion. The predominant cause of this phenomenon is destabilization of the [(NHC)CuH]2 dimer relative to the (NHC)Cu-H monomer, resulting in faster formation of Cu-H monomer. These findings indicate that remote functionalization of NHCs is a compelling strategy for accelerating the rate of substrate insertion with Cu-H species.

Application of Bulky NHC-Rhodium Complexes in Efficient S-Si and S-S Bond Forming Reactions.

Project description:The efficient and straightforward syntheses of silylthioethers and disulfides are presented. The synthetic methodologies are based on new rhodium complexes containing bulky N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands that turned out to be efficient catalysts in thiol and thiol-silane coupling reactions. These green protocols, which use easily accessible reagents, allow obtaining compounds containing S-Si and S-S bonds in solvent-free conditions. Additionally, preliminary tests on coupling of mono- and octahydro-substituted spherosilicates with selected thiols have proved to be very promising and showed that these catalytic systems can be used for the synthesis of a novel class of functionalized silsesquioxane derivatives.

The boron-boron triple bond in NHC→B[triple bond, length as m-dash]B←NHC.

Project description:Quantum chemical calculations of the compound B2(NHCMe)2 and a thorough examination of the electronic structure with an energy decomposition analysis provide strong evidence for the appearance of boron-boron triple bond character. This holds for the model compound and for the isolated diboryne B2(NHCR)2 of Braunschweig which has an even slightly shorter B-B bond. The bonding situation in the molecule is best described in terms of NHCMe→B2←NHCMe donor-acceptor interactions and concomitant π-backdonation NHCMe←B2→NHCMe which weakens the B-B bond, but the essential features of a triple bond are preserved. An appropriate formula which depicts both interactions is the sketch NHCMe⇄B[triple bond, length as m-dash]B⇄NHCMe. Calculations of the stretching force constants F BB which take molecules that have genuine single, double and triple bonds as references suggest that the effective bond order of B2(NHCMe)2 has the value of 2.34. The suggestion by Köppe and Schnöckel that the strength of the boron-boron bond in B2(NHCH)2 is only between a single and a double bond is repudiated. It misleadingly takes the force constant F BB of OBBO as the reference value for a B-B single bond which ignores π bonding contributions. The alleged similarity between the B-O bonds in OBBO and the B-C bonds in B2(NHCMe)2 is a mistaken application of the principle of isolable relationship.

Synthesis of a Benzodiazepine-derived Rhodium NHC Complex by C-H Bond Activation.

Project description:The synthesis and characterization of a Rh(I)-NHC complex generated by C-H activation of 1,4-benzodiazepine heterocycle are reported. This complex constitutes a rare example of a carbene tautomer of a 1,4-benzodiazepine aldimine stabilized by transition metal coordination and demonstrates the ability of the catalytically relevant RhCl(PCy(3))(2) fragment to induce NHC-forming tautomerization of heterocycles possessing a single carbene-stabilizing heteroatom. Implications for the synthesis of benzodiazepines and related pharmacophores via C-H functionalization are discussed.

Expeditious diastereoselective synthesis of elaborated ketones via remote Csp3-H functionalization.

Project description:The quest for selective C-H functionalization reactions, able to provide new strategic opportunities for the rapid assembly of molecular complexity, represents a major focus of the chemical community. Examples of non-directed, remote Csp3-H activation to forge complex carbon frameworks remain scarce due to the kinetic stability and thus intrinsic challenge associated to the chemo-, regio- and stereoselective functionalization of aliphatic C-H bonds. Here we describe a radical-mediated, directing-group-free regioselective 1,5-hydrogen transfer of unactivated Csp3-H bonds followed by a second Csp2-H functionalization to produce, with exquisite stereoselectivity, a variety of elaborated fused ketones. This study demonstrates that aliphatic acids can be strategically harnessed as 1,2-diradical synthons and that secondary aliphatic C-H bonds can be engaged in stereoselective C-C bond-forming reactions, highlighting the potential of this protocol for target-oriented natural product and pharmaceutical synthesis.

Controlling Ni redox states by dynamic ligand exchange for electroreductive Csp3-Csp2 coupling.

Project description:Cross-electrophile coupling (XEC) reactions of aryl and alkyl electrophiles are appealing but limited to specific substrate classes. Here, we report electroreductive XEC of previously incompatible electrophiles including tertiary alkyl bromides, aryl chlorides, and aryl/vinyl triflates. Reactions rely on the merger of an electrochemically active complex that selectively reacts with alkyl bromides through 1e- processes and an electrochemically inactive Ni0(phosphine) complex that selectively reacts with aryl electrophiles through 2e- processes. Accessing Ni0(phosphine) intermediates is critical to the strategy but is often challenging. We uncover a previously unknown pathway for electrochemically generating these key complexes at mild potentials through a choreographed series of ligand-exchange reactions. The mild methodology is applied to the alkylation of a range of substrates including natural products and pharmaceuticals.

Rh(iii)-catalyzed regioselective intermolecular N-methylene Csp3-H bond carbenoid insertion.

Project description:A Rh(iii)-catalyzed regioselective intermolecular carbenoid insertion into the N-methylene Csp3-H bond of acyclic aliphatic amides has been achieved, taking advantage of bidentate-chelation assistance. This methodology has been successfully applied to a broad range of linear and branched-chain N-alkylamides, thus providing a practical method for the assembly of diverse beta-amino esters. Mechanism studies and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that a singlet Fischer type carbene insertion via an outer-sphere pathway was involved in this N-methylene Csp3-H bond carbenoid insertion.

Unusual presentation of CF in an infant.

Project description:This case report attempts an approach to the clinical findings of hepatobiliary manifestations in Cystic Fibrosis. Infant less than 1-month-old with an insidious clinical picture that debut with hepatobiliary manifestations and jaundice, upper respiratory infection and gastrointestinal sepsis non-specific. Cystic Fibrosis is the most frequent autosomal recessive clinical condition in Caucasians. It is associated with liver involvement around 30%. In children, hepatobiliary symptoms occur at puberty when damage to the liver system is in advanced stages. The atypical presentation of Cystic Fibrosis with liver involvement is very rare and lethal. Understanding the different form of Cystic Fibrosis, it is essential for early diagnosis and to achieve integral management.

N-Methylphthalimide-substituted benzimidazolium salts and PEPPSI Pd-NHC complexes: synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity in carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions.

Project description:A series of novel benzimidazolium salts (1-4) and their pyridine enhanced precatalyst preparation stabilization and initiation (PEPPSI) themed palladium N-heterocyclic carbene complexes [PdCl2(NHC)(Py)] (5-8), where NHC = 1-(N-methylphthalimide)-3-alkylbenzimidazolin-2-ylidene and Py = 3-chloropyridine, were synthesized and characterized by means of (1)H and (13)C{(1)H} NMR, UV-vis (for 5-8), ESI-FTICR-MS (for 2, 4, 6-8) and FTIR spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. The synthesized compounds were tested in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling (for 1-8) and arylation (for 5-8) reactions. As catalysts, they demonstrated a highly efficient route for the formation of asymmetric biaryl compounds even though they were used in very low loading. For example, all compounds displayed good catalytic activity for the C-C bond formation of 4-tert-butylphenylboronic acid with 4-chlorotoluene.

O-Benzyl Xanthate Esters under Ni/Photoredox Dual Catalysis: Selective Radical Generation and Csp3-Csp2 Cross-Coupling.

Project description:Alkyl xanthate esters are perhaps best known for their use in deoxygenation chemistry. However, their use in cross-coupling chemistry has not been productive, which is due, in part, to inadequate xanthate activation strategies. Herein, we report the use of O-benzyl xanthate esters, readily derived from alcohols, as radical pronucleophiles in Csp3-Csp2 cross-couplings under Ni/photoredox dual catalysis. Xanthate (C-O) cleavage is found to be reliant on photogenerated (sec-butyl) radical activators to form new carbon-centered radicals primed for nickel-catalyzed cross-couplings. Mechanistic experiments support the fact that the key radical components are formed independently, and relative rates are carefully orchestrated, such that no cross reactivity is observed.
