Site-selective remote C(sp³)-H heteroarylation of amides via organic photoredox catalysis.

ABSTRACT: Radical translocation processes triggered by nitrogen-centered radicals (NCRs), such as 1,5-hydrogen atom transfers (1,5-HAT), demonstrated by the well-established Hofmann-Löffler-Freytag (HLF) reaction, provide an attractive approach for the controllable and selective functionalization of remote inert C(sp³)-H bonds. Here we report an amidyl radical-triggered site-selective remote C(sp³)-H heteroarylation of amides under organic photoredox conditions. This approach provides a mild and highly regioselective reaction affording remote C(sp³)-H heteroarylated amides at room temperature under transition-metal free, weakly basic, and redox-neutral conditions. Non-prefunctionalized heteroarenes, such as purines, thiazolopyridines, benzoxazole, benzothiazoles, benzothiophene, benzofuran, thiazoles and quinoxalines, can be alkylated directly. Sequential and orthogonal C-H functionalization of different heteroarenes by taking advantage pH value or polarity of radicals has also been achieved. DFT calculations explain and can predict the site-selectivity and reactivity of this reaction. This strategy expands the scope of the Minisci reaction and serves as its alternative and potential complement.

Photoredox-mediated remote C(sp3)-H heteroarylation of free alcohols.

Project description:We report an efficient and economical method for remote ? C(sp3)-H heteroarylation of free aliphatic alcohols using a hypervalent iodine PFBI-OH oxidant under photoredox catalysis. The reaction sequence involves in situ alcoholysis of PFBI-OH with alcohol, generation of an alkoxy radical intermediate by SET reduction, 1,5-HAT, and Minisci-type C-C bond formation. This method uses a slight excess of alcohols, can facilitate reaction at ? methyl and methylene positions, and has been successfully applied to modification of complex drug molecules.

Site-Selective, Remote sp3 C-H Carboxylation Enabled by the Merger of Photoredox and Nickel Catalysis.

Project description:A photoinduced carboxylation of alkyl halides with CO2 at remote sp3 C-H sites enabled by the merger of photoredox and Ni catalysis is described. This protocol features a predictable reactivity and site selectivity that can be modulated by the ligand backbone. Preliminary studies reinforce a rationale based on a dynamic displacement of the catalyst throughout the alkyl side chain.

Practical, metal-free remote heteroarylation of amides via unactivated C(sp3)-H bond functionalization.

Project description:Development of practical methods for the production of multi-functionalized amides is one of the most important topics in both synthetic chemistry and drug discovery. Disclosed herein is a new, efficient, site-selective heteroarylation of amides via C(sp3)-H bond functionalization. Amidyl radicals are directly generated from the amide N-H bonds under mild conditions, which trigger the subsequent 1,5-HAT process. A wide scope of aliphatic amides including carboxamides, sulfonamides, and phosphoramides are readily modified at remote C(sp3)-H bonds by installing diverse heteroaryl groups. Borne out of pragmatic consideration, this protocol can be used for the late-stage functionalization of amides.

Remote Site-Selective Radical C(sp3 )-H Monodeuteration of Amides using D2 O.

Project description:Site-selective incorporation of deuterium into biologically active compounds is of high interest in pharmaceutical industry. We present a mild and environmentally benign metal-free method for the remote selective radical C-H monodeuteration of aliphatic C-H bonds in various amides with inexpensive heavy water (D2 O) as the deuterium source. The method uses the easily installed N-allylsulfonyl moiety as an N-radical precursor that generates the remote C-radical via site-selective 1,5- or 1,6-hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Methyl thioglycolate, that readily exchanges its proton with D2 O, serves as the radical deuteration reagent and as a chain-carrier. The highly site-selective monodeuteration has been applied to different types of unactivated sp3 -C-H bonds and also to the deuteration of C-H bonds next to heteroatoms. The potential utility of this method is further demonstrated by the site-selective incorporation of deuterium into natural product derivatives and drugs.

Predictive Model for Site-Selective Aryl and Heteroaryl C-H Functionalization via Organic Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:Direct C-H functionalization of aromatic compounds is a useful synthetic strategy that has garnered much attention because of its application to pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and late-stage functionalization reactions on complex molecules. On the basis of previous methods disclosed by our lab, we sought to develop a predictive model for site selectivity and extend this aryl functionalization chemistry to a selected set of heteroaromatic systems commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry. Using electron density calculations, we were able to predict the site selectivity of direct C-H functionalization in a number of heterocycles and identify general trends observed across heterocycle classes.

Photoredox-Catalyzed Site-Selective α-C(sp3 )-H Alkylation of Primary Amine Derivatives.

Project description:The synthetic utility of tertiary amines to oxidatively generate α-amino radicals is well established, however, primary amines remain challenging because of competitive side reactions. This report describes the site-selective α-functionalization of primary amine derivatives through the generation of α-amino radical intermediates. Employing visible-light photoredox catalysis, primary sulfonamides are coupled with electron-deficient alkenes to efficiently and mildly construct C-C bonds. Interestingly, a divergence between intermolecular hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) catalysis and intramolecular [1,5] HAT was observed through precise manipulation of the protecting group. This dichotomy was leveraged to achieve excellent α/δ site-selectivity.

This reduction-potential-gated strategy enables access to residues unavailable with traditional nucleophilicity-based conjugation methods. To demonstrate the versatility and robustness of this new protocol, we have modified various proteins and further utilized this functional handle to append diverse biological payloads.

Direct ?-Arylation/Heteroarylation of 2-Trifluoroboratochromanones via Photoredox/Nickel Dual Catalysis.

Project description:Utilizing photoredox/nickel dual catalysis, diverse flavanones have been synthesized by coupling novel 2-trifluoroboratochromanone building blocks with aryl and heteroaryl bromide partners. The newly reported trifluoroboratochromanones can be easily accessed from the corresponding chromones on multigram scale. This represents a general route for accessing natural and unnatural flavanones that were previously formed through a synthetically more restrictive ring closure route from chalcone precursors.

Direct ?-heteroarylation of amides (? to nitrogen) and ethers through a benzaldehyde-mediated photoredox reaction.

Project description:A photoredox reaction for cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) was developed to C?-arylate amides (? to nitrogen) and ethers using a variety of five- and six-membered electron-deficient heteroarenes. A unique decomposition mechanism of ammonium persulfate enhanced by photoexcited benzaldehydes was revealed. This benzaldehyde-mediated photoredox reaction proceeded smoothly with household 23 W CFL bulbs as the energy source under metal-free conditions, allowing the construction of new Csp2 -Csp2 and Csp3 -Csp2 bonds and access to important pharmacophores of broad utility using commercially available reagents.

Site-Selective Alkoxylation of Benzylic C-H Bonds by Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:Methods that enable the direct C-H alkoxylation of complex organic molecules are significantly underdeveloped, particularly in comparison to analogous strategies for C-N and C-C bond formation. In particular, almost all methods for the incorporation of alcohols by C-H oxidation require the use of the alcohol component as a solvent or co-solvent. This condition limits the practical scope of these reactions to simple, inexpensive alcohols. Reported here is a photocatalytic protocol for the functionalization of benzylic C-H bonds with a wide range of oxygen nucleophiles. This strategy merges the photoredox activation of arenes with copper(II)-mediated oxidation of the resulting benzylic radicals, which enables the introduction of benzylic C-O bonds with high site selectivity, chemoselectivity, and functional-group tolerance using only two equivalents of the alcohol coupling partner. This method enables the late-stage introduction of complex alkoxy groups into bioactive molecules, providing a practical new tool with potential applications in synthesis and medicinal chemistry.
