CuI -Mediated Bromoalkynylation and Hydroalkynylation Reactions of Unsymmetrical Benzynes: Complementary Modes of Addition.

ABSTRACT: Benzynes formed by heating a suitable triyne (or tetrayne) substrate are shown to react with in situ generated alkynyl copper species. The latter are compatible with the polyyne substrates and two types of chemistries have been achieved: (i) 1-bromo-1-alkynes efficiently undergo net bromoalkynylation of the (unsymmetrical) benzynes and (ii) in situ generated alkynylcopper species give rise to hydroalkynylation products. The regiochemical preferences of these two modes of reaction are complementary to one another with respect to the position of alkynyl substituent in the final products.

Reactions of HDDA-Derived Benzynes with Sulfides: Mechanism, Modes, and Three-Component Reactions.

Project description:We report here reactions of alkyl sulfides with benzynes thermally generated by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) cycloisomerization. The initially produced 1,3-betaine (o-sulfonium/aryl carbanion) undergoes intramolecular proton transfer to generate a more stable S-aryl sulfur ylide. This can react in various manners, including engaging weak acids (HA) in the reaction medium. This can produce transient ion pairs ArSR2(+)A(-) that proceed to the products ArSR + RA. When cyclic sulfides are used, A(-) opens the ring and is incorporated into the product, an outcome that constitutes a versatile, three-component coupling process.

Sulfonamide-Trapping Reactions of Thermally Generated Benzynes.

Project description:Reactions of tethered, tertiary sulfonamides with thermally generated benzynes are reported. Typically, the N-S bonds in the substrates cleave, and saturated heterocycles [tetrahydroquinolines ( n = 2) and indolines ( n = 1)] are formed. The process is accompanied by either sulfonyl transfer or desulfonylation from a zwitterionic intermediate, with the favored pathway being largely dependent upon the size (5- vs 6-membered) of the N-containing ring in the zwitterion.

Reactions of Diaziridines with Benzynes Give N-Arylhydrazones.

Project description:Reactions of thermally generated benzynes with diaziridines are reported. These trapping reactions follow the same pathway as reported earlier by Heine and co-workers with electron-deficient alkynes. The resulting N-arylhydrazones were obtained efficiently in a single step. The preference for the mode of addition of the nucleophilic diaziridine nitrogen atom to the more electrophilic benzyne carbon was consistent with what is predicted on the basis of distortion analysis. The feasibility of converting the hydrazone into a Fisher-indole adduct was demonstrated.

Mechanism of the reactions of alcohols with o-benzynes.

Project description:We have studied reactions of secondary and primary alcohols with benzynes generated by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction. These alcohols undergo competitive addition vs dihydrogen transfer to produce aryl ethers vs reduced benzenoid products, respectively. During the latter process, an equivalent amount of oxidized ketone (or aldehyde) is formed. Using deuterium labeling studies, we determined that (i) it is the carbinol C-H and adjacent O-H hydrogen atoms that are transferred during this process and (ii) the mechanism is consistent with a hydride-like transfer of the C-H. Substrates bearing an internal trap attached to the reactive, HDDA-derived benzyne intermediate were used to probe the kinetic order of the alcohol trapping agent in the H2-transfer as well as in the alcohol addition process. The H2-transfer reaction is first order in alcohol. Our results are suggestive of a concerted H2-transfer process, which is further supported by density functional theory (DFT) computational studies and results of a kinetic isotope effect experiment. In contrast, alcohol addition to the benzyne is second order in alcohol, a previously unrecognized phenomenon. Additional DFT studies were used to further probe the mechanistic aspects of the alcohol addition process.

BF3-Promoted, Carbene-like, C-H Insertion Reactions of Benzynes.

Project description:Boron trifluoride is observed to promote a variety of C-H insertion reactions of benzynes bearing pendant alkyl groups. Computations and various mechanistic studies indicate that BF3 engages the strained ?-bond to confer carbene-like character on the adjacent, noncoordinated benzyne carbon. This represents an unprecedented catalytic role for a non-transition metal such as BF3.

Reactions of hexadehydro-Diels-Alder benzynes with structurally complex multifunctional natural products.

Project description:An important question in organic chemistry concerns the extent to which benzynes-one of the classical reactive intermediates in organic chemistry-can react in discriminating fashion with trapping reagents. In particular, whether these species can react selectively with substrates containing multiple functional groups and possible sites of reactivity has remained unanswered. Natural products comprise a palette of multifunctional compounds with which to address this question. Here, we show that benzynes produced by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction react with many secondary metabolites with a preference for one among several pathways. Examples demonstrating such selectivity include reactions with: phenolics, through dearomatizing ortho-substitution; alkaloids, through Hofmann-type elimination; tropolone and furan, through cycloaddition; and alkaloids, through three-component fragmentation-coupling reactions. We also demonstrate that the cinchona alkaloids quinidine and quinine give rise to products (some in as few as three steps) that enable subsequent and rapid access to structurally diverse polyheterocyclic compounds. The results show that benzynes are quite discriminating in their reactivity-a trait perhaps not broadly enough appreciated.

Reactions of HDDA Benzynes with <i>C,N</i>-Diarylimines (ArCH=NAr').

Project description:o-Benzynes can be utilized to construct heterocyclic motifs using various nucleophilic and cycloaddition trapping reactions. Acridines have been synthesized by capture of C,N-diarylimines with benzynes generated by classical methods (i.e., from ortho-elimination of precursor arene compounds), although in poor yields. We report here that these imines can be trapped by benzynes generated by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction in an efficient manner to produce 1,4-dihydroacridine products. These dihydroacridines were subsequently aromatized using MnO2 to provide structurally complex acridines.

The role of CuI in the siloxane-mediated Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl iodides with aryl lithium reagents.

Project description:Experiments indicate that a catalytic amount of CuI plays an important role in the siloxane-mediated Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with the direct use of organolithium reagents. Addition of organolithium to the siloxane transfer agent generates an organosilicon intermediate. DFT calculations indicate that CuI initially accelerates the Si-Pd(II) transmetalation of the organosilicon intermediate by the formation of CuI2 -. Subsequently, CuI2 - works as a shuttle between the Si-Cu(I) and Cu(I)-Pd(II) transmetalation processes.

Mechanistic Perspectives in the Regioselective Indole Addition to Unsymmetrical Silyloxyallyl Cations.

Project description:Our investigations on the reaction mechanism to account for regioselectivity on the addition of indoles to unsymmetrical silyloxyallyl cations are reported. Using both experimental and computational methods, we confirmed the significance of steric effects from the silyl ether group toward directing the inward approach of indoles, leading to nucleophilic attack at the less substituted electrophilic ?'-carbon. The role of residual water toward accelerating the rate of reaction is established through stabilization of the participating silyloxyallyl cation.

Multiheterocyclic Motifs via Three-Component Reactions of Benzynes, Cyclic Amines, and Protic Nucleophiles.

Project description:A broadly general, three-component reaction strategy for the construction of compounds containing multiple heterocycles is described. Thermal benzyne formation (by the hexadehydro-Diels-Alder (HDDA) reaction) in the presence of tertiary cyclic amines and a protic nucleophile (HNu) gives, via ring-opening of intermediate ammonium ion/Nu- ion pairs, heterocyclic products. Many reactions are efficient even when the stoichiometric loading of the three reactants approaches unity. Use of HOSO2CF3 as the HNu gives ammonium triflate intermediates, which can then be ring opened by an even wider variety of nucleophiles.
