Friedel-Crafts approach to the one-pot synthesis of methoxy-substituted thioxanthylium salts.

ABSTRACT: An efficient synthesis of methoxy-substituted thioxanthylium salts has been developed. The reaction of diaryl sulfides with benzoyl chlorides in the presence of TfOH smoothly proceeded to give the desired thioxanthylium salts in good yields. In their UV-vis spectra, the maximum absorption wavelengths of methoxy-functionalized thioxanthylium salts were observed at around 460 nm, which show a drastic red shift compared to the parent thioxanthylium salts. The present reaction provides a versatile access to functionalized thioxanthylium salts, and therefore it constitutes a promising tool for the synthesis of biologically and photochemically active molecules.

Synthesis of isopropyl-substituted anthraquinones via Friedel-Crafts acylations: migration of isopropyl groups.

Project description:Friedel-Crafts reactions of isopropyl-substituted benzenes with phthalic anhydride in the presence of aluminium trichloride, followed by cyclization of the products with strong sulfuric acid give, as expected, anthraquinones. The syntheses, however, often afford more than one anthraquinone. In some cases the isopropyl groups migrate cleanly to other ring positions; in other cases they are lost.

Asymmetric one-pot sequential Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation and ?-oxyamination catalyzed by a peptide and an enzyme.

Project description:In the presence of a peptide catalyst and the oxidative enzyme laccase, a one-pot sequential reaction including a Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation of ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes followed by an ?-oxyamination was realized. The reaction in aqueous solvent to promote the enzymatic oxidation, and the use of a peptide catalyst compatible with such conditions, were essential. The present sequential reaction afforded oxygen-functionalized indole or pyrrole derivatives in a highly enantioselective manner.

Stereoselective and regioselective intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction of aziridinium ions for synthesis of 4-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines.

Project description:Optically active 4-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines were synthesized via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts (FC) reactions of aziridinium ions in a highly regio- and stereoselective manner. Control experiments suggest the formation and ring-opening of aziridinium ions as the key intermediates in the Lewis acid catalyzed FC reactions.

Diastereoselective ring opening of fully-substituted cyclopropanes via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation.

Project description:We herein disclose a diastereoselective ring opening of non-donor-acceptor cyclopropanes via an intramolecular Friedel-Crafts alkylation en route to functionalized dihydronaphthalene scaffolds possessing quaternary carbon stereocentres. The transformation proceeds through a selective bond breaking at the most alkylated carbon centre with a pure retention of configuration. Mechanistic investigations and computational studies revealed that alkoxy functionality is the key for selective bond breaking leading to a complete retention of configuration.

One-pot synthesis and applications of N-heteroaryl iodonium salts.

Project description:An efficient one-pot synthesis of N-heteroaryl iodonium triflates from the corresponding N-heteroaryl iodide and arene has been developed. The reaction conditions resemble our previous one-pot syntheses, with suitable modifications to allow N-heteroaryl groups. The reaction time is only 30?min, and no anion exchange is required. The obtained iodonium salts were isolated in a protonated form, these salts can either be employed directly in applications or be deprotonated prior to use. The aryl groups were chosen to induce chemoselective transfer of the heteroaryl moiety to various nucleophiles. The reactivity and chemoselectivity of these iodonium salts were demonstrated by selectively introducing a pyridyl moiety onto both oxygen and carbon nucleophiles in good yields.

Mechanochemical Friedel-Crafts acylations.

Project description:Friedel-Crafts (FC) acylation reactions were exploited in the preparation of ketone-functionalized aromatics. Environmentally more friendly, solvent-free mechanochemical reaction conditions of this industrially important reaction were developed. Reaction parameters such as FC catalyst, time, ratio of reagents and milling support were studied to establish the optimal reaction conditions. The scope of the reaction was explored by employment of different aromatic hydrocarbons in conjunction with anhydrides and acylation reagents. It was shown that certain FC-reactive aromatics could be effectively functionalized by FC acylations carried out under ball-milling conditions without the presence of a solvent. The reaction mechanism was studied by in situ Raman and ex situ IR spectroscopy.

Biocatalytic Friedel‐Crafts Reactions

Project description:Abstract Friedel‐Crafts alkylation and acylation reactions are important methodologies in synthetic and industrial chemistry for the construction of aryl‐alkyl and aryl‐acyl linkages that are ubiquitous in bioactive molecules. Nature also exploits these reactions in many biosynthetic processes. Much work has been done to expand the synthetic application of these enzymes to unnatural substrates through directed evolution. The promise of such biocatalysts is their potential to supersede inefficient and toxic chemical approaches to these reactions, with mild operating conditions ‐ the hallmark of enzymes. Complementary work has created many bio‐hybrid Friedel‐Crafts catalysts consisting of chemical catalysts anchored into biomolecular scaffolds, which display many of the same desirable characteristics. In this Review, we summarise these efforts, focussing on both mechanistic aspects and synthetic considerations, concluding with an overview of the frontiers of this field and routes towards more efficient and benign Friedel‐Crafts reactions for the future of humankind. Artificial enzymes: Friedel‐Crafts reactions are a mainstay methodology for organic chemists to construct aryl‐alkyl and aryl‐acyl linkages. Nature uses biocatalysts for performing such reactions to construct an array of bio‐active compounds. In this Review we discuss several examples of such enzymes, as well Friedel‐Crafts artificial enzymes and DNA catalysts, from the useful products they produce, to their mechanism and approaches for engineering.

Multivalent polyglycerol supported imidazolidin-4-one organocatalysts for enantioselective Friedel-Crafts alkylations.

Project description:The first immobilization of a MacMillan's first generation organocatalyst onto dendritic support is described. A modified tyrosine-based imidazolidin-4-one was grafted to a soluble high-loading hyperbranched polyglycerol via a copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction and readily purified by dialysis. The efficiency of differently functionalized multivalent organocatalysts 4a-c was tested in the asymmetric Friedel-Crafts alkylation of N-methylpyrrole with ?,?-unsaturated aldehydes. A variety of substituted enals was investigated to explore the activity of the catalytic system which was also compared with monovalent analogues. The catalyst 4b showed excellent turnover rates and no loss of activity due to immobilization, albeit moderate enantioselectivities were observed. Moreover, easy recovery by selective precipitation allowed the reuse of the catalyst for three cycles.

Friedel-Crafts acylation with amides.

Project description:Friedel-Crafts acylation has been known since the 1870s, and it is an important organic synthetic reaction leading to aromatic ketone products. Friedel-Crafts acylation is usually performed with carboxylic acid chlorides or anhydrides, while amides are generally not useful substrates in these reactions. Despite being the least reactive carboxylic acid derivative, we have found a series of amides capable of providing aromatic ketones in good yields (55-96%, 17 examples). We propose a mechanism involving diminished C-N resonance through superelectrophilic activation and subsequent cleavage to acyl cations.
