Transition Metal- and Oxidant-Free Base-Mediated Selenation of Bicyclic Arenes at Room Temperature.

ABSTRACT: Bicyclic arenyl selenides are of much importance because of their pharmaceutical applications. A simple method for their synthesis has been developed by a reaction of 2-naphthol and styrenyl selenocyanate/diaryl diselenide in the presence of a base at room temperature. The selenation occurs exclusively at the 1-position of 2-naphthol unit. The reactions are relatively fast (2-4 h) and high yielding. A library of substituted naphthyl styrenyl and naphthyl aryl selenides are obtained by this procedure.

Transition-metal-free synthesis of aryl 1-thioglycosides with arynes at room temperature.

Project description:A mild, convenient and transition-metal-free protocol for the synthesis of aryl 1-thioglycosides is presented via arynes generated in situ combined with glycosyl thiols in the presence of TBAF(tBuOH)4. The methodology provides a general and efficient way to prepare a series of functionalized thioglycosides in good to excellent yields with a perfect control of the anomeric configuration at room temperature. In addition, the reaction conditions tolerate a variety of the pentoses and hexoses, and the reaction also performs smoothly on protected monosaccharides and disaccharides.

Highly selective transition-metal-free transamidation of amides and amidation of esters at room temperature.

Project description:Amide chemistry has an essential role in the synthesis of high value molecules, such as pharmaceuticals, natural products, and fine chemicals. Over the past years, several examples of transamidation reactions have been reported. In general, transition-metal-based catalysts or harsh conditions are employed for these transformations due to unfavorable kinetics and thermodynamics of the process. Herein, we report a significant advance in this area and present the general method for transition-metal-free transamidation of amides and amidation of esters by highly selective acyl cleavage with non-nucleophilic amines at room temperature. In contrast to metal-catalyzed protocols, the method is operationally-simple, environmentally-friendly, and operates under exceedingly mild conditions. The practical value is highlighted by the synthesis of valuable amides in high yields. Considering the key role of amides in various branches of chemical science, we envision that this broadly applicable method will be of great interest in organic synthesis, drug discovery, and biochemistry.

Room temperature, metal-free arylation of aliphatic alcohols.

Project description:Diaryliodonium salts are demonstrated as efficient arylating agents of aliphatic alcohols under metal-free conditions. The reaction proceeds at room temperature within 90 min to give alkyl aryl ethers in good to excellent yields. Aryl groups with electron-withdrawing substituents are transferred most efficiently, and unsymmetric iodonium salts give chemoselective arylations. The methodology has been applied to the formal synthesis of butoxycaine.

Transition-Metal-Free Coupling of Polyfluorinated Arenes and Functionalized, Masked Aryl Nucleophiles.

Project description:A chemoselective C(sp2 )-C(sp2 ) coupling of sufficiently electron-deficient fluorinated arenes and functionalized N-aryl-N'-silyldiazenes as masked aryl nucleophiles is reported. The fluoride-promoted transformation involves the in situ generation of the aryl nucleophile decorated with various sensitive functional groups followed by a stepwise nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SN Ar). These reactions typically proceed at room temperature within minutes. This catalytic process allows for the functionalization of both coupling partners, furnishing highly fluorinated biaryls in good yields.

Catalyst- and metal-free C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-H bond selenylation of (N-hetero)-arenes using diselenides and trichloroisocyanuric acid at room temperature.

Project description:In this paper, we report an eco-friendly approach for the C(sp2)-H bond selenylation of imidazopyridines and other N-heteroarenes as well as simple arenes at ambient temperature. This new protocol consists of the reaction between (N-hetero)-arenes and the diorganyl-diselenides and trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA)-ethanol reagent system. In a short reaction time, the desired selenylated products were obtained regioselectively in good yields, with tolerance for a wide range of functional groups.

Metal-free carbocatalyst for room temperature acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles.

Project description:Catalytic dehydrogenation enables reversible hydrogen storage in liquid organics as a critical technology to achieve carbon neutrality. However, oxidant or base-free catalytic dehydrogenation at mild temperatures remains a challenge. Here, we demonstrate a metal-free carbocatalyst, nitrogen-assembly carbons (NCs), for acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles even at ambient temperature, showing greater activity than transition metal-based catalysts. Mechanistic studies indicate that the observed catalytic activity of NCs is because of the unique closely placed graphitic nitrogens (CGNs), formed by the assembly of precursors during the carbonization process. The CGN site catalyzes the activation of C─H bonds in N-heterocycles to form labile C─H bonds on catalyst surface. The subsequent facile recombination of this surface hydrogen to desorb H2 allows the NCs to work without any H-acceptor. With reverse transfer hydrogenation of various N-heterocycles demonstrated in this work, these NC catalysts, without precious metals, exhibit great potential for completing the cycle of hydrogen storage.

Red-light excited efficient metal-free near-infrared room-temperature phosphorescent films.

Project description:A set of red-light-excited, metal-free room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) systems was constructed with brominated phenolsulfonephthaleine derivatives. The best metal-free RTP system has the reddest near-infrared (NIR) RTP emission (λp = 819 nm) with the highest phosphorescence quantum yield (ΦRTP = 3.0%) so far identified. The RTP emission can be switched ON-OFF by adding acid and alkali alternately. A logic operation with half-subtractor function and dual-channel response (visible light emission/NIR RTP emission) was also constructed based on these properties.

Suppressing molecular motions for enhanced room-temperature phosphorescence of metal-free organic materials.

Project description:Metal-free organic phosphorescent materials are attractive alternatives to the predominantly used organometallic phosphors but are generally dimmer and are relatively rare, as, without heavy-metal atoms, spin-orbit coupling is less efficient and phosphorescence usually cannot compete with radiationless relaxation processes. Here we present a general design rule and a method to effectively reduce radiationless transitions and hence greatly enhance phosphorescence efficiency of metal-free organic materials in a variety of amorphous polymer matrices, based on the restriction of molecular motions in the proximity of embedded phosphors. Covalent cross-linking between phosphors and polymer matrices via Diels-Alder click chemistry is devised as a method. A sharp increase in phosphorescence quantum efficiency is observed in a variety of polymer matrices with this method, which is ca. two to five times higher than that of phosphor-doped polymer systems having no such covalent linkage.
