Vanadium-Catalyzed Selective Oxidative Homocoupling of Alkenyl Phenols to Synthesize Lignan Analogs.

ABSTRACT: The oxidative homocoupling of para-alkenyl phenols and subsequent trapping of the resulting quinone methide with a variety of oxygen and nitrogen nucleophiles was achieved. Both ?-? and ?-O coupling isomers can be synthesized via either C-C coupling and two nucleophilic additions of one water molecule (?-? isomer) or C-O coupling followed by one nucleophilic addition of a water molecule (?-O isomer), respectively. Selectivity between these outcomes was achieved by leveraging understanding of the mechanism. Specifically, a qualitative predictive model for the selectivity of the coupling was formulated based on catalyst electronics, solvent polarity, and concentration.

Both β-β and β-O coupling isomers can be synthesized via either C-C coupling and two nucleophilic additions of one water molecule (β-β isomer) or C-O coupling followed by one nucleophilic addition of a water molecule (β-O isomer), respectively.

Vanadium-Catalyzed Oxidative Intramolecular Coupling of Tethered Phenols: Formation of Phenol-Dienone Products.

Project description:A mild and efficient method for the vanadium-catalyzed intramolecular coupling of tethered free phenols is described. The corresponding phenol-dienone products are prepared directly in good yields with low catalyst loadings. Electronically diverse tethered phenol precursors are well tolerated, and the catalytic method was effectively applied as the key step in syntheses of three natural products and a synthetically useful morphinan alkaloid precursor.

Experimental and mechanistic analysis of the palladium-catalyzed oxidative C8-selective C-H homocoupling of quinoline N-oxides.

Project description:A novel site-selective palladium-catalyzed oxidative C8-H homocoupling reaction of quinoline N-oxides has been developed. The reaction affords substituted 8,8'-biquinolyl N,N'-dioxides that can be readily converted to a variety of functionalized 8,8'-biquinolyls. Mechanistic studies point to the crucial role of the oxidant and a non-innocent behavior of acetic acid as a solvent.

Flavoenzyme-catalyzed atropo-selective N,C-bipyrrole homocoupling in marinopyrrole biosynthesis.

Project description:Axially chiral biaryl compounds are frequently encountered in nature where they exhibit diverse biological properties. Many are biphenols that have C-C or C-O linkages installed by cytochrome P450 oxygenases that control the regio- and stereoselectivity of the intermolecular coupling reaction. In contrast, bipyrrole-coupling enzymology has not been observed. Marinopyrroles, produced by a marine-derived streptomycete, are the first 1,3'-bipyrrole natural products. On the basis of marinopyrrole's unusual bipyrrole structure, we explored its atropo-selective biosynthesis in Streptomyces sp. CNQ-418 in order to elucidate the N,C-bipyrrole homocoupling enzymology. Through a series of genetic experiments involving the discovery and heterologous expression of marinopyrrole biosynthesis genes, we report that two flavin-dependent halogenases catalyze the unprecedented homocoupling reaction.

Vanadium-catalyzed regioselective oxidative coupling of 2-hydroxycarbazoles.

Project description:The first regioselective oxidative coupling of 2-hydroxycarbazoles is described. With a vanadium catalyst and oxygen as the terminal oxidant, dimers with an ortho-ortho' coupling pattern were obtained with high selectivity. Further oxidation led to ortho'-ortho' coupling to generate a tetramer, which provided insight that the atropisomerization barriers of the unsymmetrical biaryl bonds are much lower than expected.

Enantioselective Vanadium-Catalyzed Oxidative Coupling: Development and Mechanistic Insights.

Project description:The evolution of a more reactive chiral vanadium catalyst for enantioselective oxidative coupling of phenols is reported, ultimately resulting in a simple monomeric vanadium species combined with a Brønsted or Lewis acid additive. The resultant vanadium complex is found to effect the asymmetric oxidative ortho-ortho coupling of simple phenols and 2-hydroxycarbazoles with good to excellent levels of enantioselectivity. Experimental and quantum mechanical studies of the mechanism indicate that the additives aggregate the vanadium monomers. In addition, a singlet to triplet crossover is implicated prior to carbon-carbon bond formation. The two lowest energy diastereomeric transition states leading to the enantiomeric products differ substantially with the path to the minor enantiomer involving greater torsional strain between the two phenol moieties.

Palladium(ii)-catalyzed γ-selective hydroarylation of alkenyl carbonyl compounds with arylboronic acids.

Project description:A catalytic γ-selective syn-hydroarylation of alkenyl carbonyl compounds using arylboronic acids has been developed using a substrate directivity approach with a palladium(ii) catalyst. This method tolerates a wide range of functionalized (hetero)arylboronic acids and a variety of substitution patterns on the alkene. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that transmetalation is rate-limiting.

Highly E-Selective, Stereoconvergent Nickel-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Cross-Coupling of Alkenyl Ethers.

Project description:An improved method for the nickel-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of alkenyl ethers is reported. This stereoconvergent protocol allows for the utilization of a wide range of alkenyl ethers and aryl boronic esters for the synthesis of variously substituted styrene derivatives. An olefinic mixture with respect to the alkenyl ethers can be employed, thereby circumventing the stereodefined synthesis of starting materials. Preliminary mechanistic investigations indicate a nickel-catalyzed olefin isomerization following initial stereoretentive cross-coupling.

Reactions of (Arylimido)vanadium(V)-Trialkyl Complexes with Phenols: Effects of Arylimido Ligands and Phenols for Formation of the Vanadium Phenoxides.

Project description:Reactions of a series of (arylimido)vanadium(V) trialkyl complexes, V(NAr')(CH2SiMe3)3 (Ar' = C6H5, 2-MeC6H4, 2,6-Me2C6H3, 2,6-Cl2C6H3), with various phenols (ArOH, Ar = 2,6-F2C6H3, 2,6-Cl2C6H3, 2,6-Me2C6H3, 2,6- i Pr2C6H3, 2- t BuC6H4, 2,6- t Bu2C6H3; 1.0 equiv) affording V(NAr')(CH2SiMe3)2(OAr) were conducted in C6D6 at 25 °C, and the effects of both arylimido ligands and phenols on the substitution rate were explored. Sterically hindered arylimido ligands showed lower reactivity, and the reaction proceeded in the order: Ar' = 2,6-Me2C6H3 < 2,6-Cl2C6H3 < 2-MeC6H4 < C6H5. This order is somewhat different from that obtained from the chemical shifts in V(NAr')(CH2SiMe3)3 in the 51V NMR spectra. The conversions with various disubstituted phenols increased in the order: 2,6- i Pr2C6H3OH < 2,6-Me2C6H3OH < 2,6-Cl2C6H3OH < 2,6-F2C6H3OH, irrespective of the kind of arylimido ligands. The reactions of V(NAr')(CH2SiMe3)3 with 2,6- t Bu2C6H3OH (1.0 or 3.0 equiv) did not take place even upon heating at 60 °C. These results suggest that the reactions proceed via coordination of ArOH toward vanadium, and the reactivity is highly dependent on steric bulk of both the arylimido ligand and the phenol.

Copper-catalyzed direct transformation of simple alkynes to alkenyl nitriles via aerobic oxidative N-incorporation.

Project description:A novel direct transformation of aliphatic terminal alkynes to alkenyl nitriles through the incorporation of a nitrogen atom into the simple hydrocarbons has been reported. The usage of inexpensive copper catalyst, O2 as the sole oxidant, broad substrate scope as well as feasibility for "late-stage modification" make this protocol very promising. Mechanistic studies including DFT calculation demonstrate a novel 1,2-hydride shift process for this novel nitrogenation reaction.
