1,2-(Bis)trifluoromethylation of Alkynes: A One-Step Reaction to Install an Underutilized Functional Group.

ABSTRACT: Modifying the electronic properties of olefins is the quintessential approach to tuning alkene reactivity. In this context, the exploration of trifluoromethyl groups as divergent electronic modifiers has not been considered. In this work, we describe a copper-mediated 1,2-(bis)trifluoromethylation of acetylenes to create E-hexafluorobutenes (E-HFBs) under blue light in a single step. The reaction proceeds with high yield and E/Z selectivity. Since the alkyne captures two trifluoromethyl groups from each molecule of bpyCu(CF3 )3 , mechanistic studies were conducted to illuminate the role of the reactants. Interestingly, E-HFBs exhibit remarkable stability to standard olefin functionalization reactions in spite of the pendant trifluoromethyl groups. This finding has significant implications for medicine, agroscience, and materials.

Copper-mediated 1,2-bis(trifluoromethylation) of arynes.

Project description:We herein describe an unprecedented 1,2-bis(trifluoromethylation) of arynes with [CuCF3] in the presence of an oxidant DDQ. The method allows the rapid construction of a new class of 1,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)arenes in one-step from aryne precursors under mild conditions. Its synthetic utility has been demonstrated in the preparation of bis(trifluoromethylated) molecules with potential pharmaceutical and materials science applications. Mechanistic studies indicated the presence of an o-trifluoromethyl aryl radical intermediate via CF3 group transfer from [CuCF3] to the aryne.

Scope of the two-step, one-pot palladium-catalyzed borylation/Suzuki cross-coupling reaction utilizing bis-boronic acid.

Project description:The use of bis-boronic acid for the direct synthesis of boronic acids has greatly facilitated the two-step, one-pot borylation/Suzuki cross-coupling reaction between aryl and heteroaryl halides. With use of Buchwald's second-generation XPhos preformed catalyst, high yields of cross-coupled products were obtained for most substrates. The method also allows an efficient two-step, one-pot synthesis, providing access to three distinct cross-coupled products after column chromatography. The method also provides a rapid and convenient route to teraryl compounds.

Radical reaction of sodium hypophosphite with terminal alkynes: synthesis of 1,1-bis-H-phosphinates.

Project description:[reaction: see text] The room-temperature radical addition of sodium hypophosphite to terminal alkynes produces the previously unknown 1-alkyl-1,1-bis-H-phosphinates in moderate yield. The reaction is initiated by R3B and air and proceeds under mild conditions in an open container. The bissodium salts precipitate spontaneously from the reaction mixtures, thus providing a simple purification procedure and the opportunity for multigram synthesis. The 1,1-bis-H-phosphinate products are novel precursors of the biologically important 1,1-bisphosphonates.

Three-component coupling reactions of silylglyoxylates, alkynes, and aldehydes: a chemoselective one-step glycolate aldol construction.

Project description:A single-pot three-component coupling reaction of silylglyoxylates (1), terminal alkynes, and aldehydes in the presence of ZnI2 and Et3N is presented. The products of the reaction, densely functionalized silyl-protected glycolate aldols (2), can be converted to the corresponding acetonides (3) in a one-pot deprotection/ketalization sequence. A variety of terminal alkynes and aldehydes can be successfully employed to give a range of highly functionalized, fully protected 1,2-diols in good yields and moderate diastereoselectivities. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the zinc acetylide reacts with the silylgyloxylate (1) in a chemoselective manner. Using an unoptimized (+)-N-methylephedrine and Zn(OTf)2 system, silyl-deprotected adduct 2 was formed in 64% ee and 89:11 dr.

A short C?O distance of 3.012?(4)?Å between the carbonyl groups of neighbouring mol-ecules indicates the presence of dipole-dipole inter-actions. The crystal packing exhibits also weak inter-molecular O?S [3.239?(3)?Å] and C-H?O inter-actions.

One-step acquisition of functional biomolecules from tissues.

Project description:Direct determination of functional biomolecular chemistry of clinically relevant tissues in vivo is a challenging task. Current approaches, based on tissue retrieval by biopsy and subsequent solubilization, are limited in terms of accurate representation of tissue constituents, reproducibility, and retention of functionality of solubilized tissue biomolecules. Using a pool of known surfactants, we designed and screened a large combinatorial library of surfactant formulations, which led to the discovery of rare synergistic formulations that greatly enhance tissue solubilization as well as preserve bioactivity of solubilized molecules, in particular proteins. By combining these formulations with a short ultrasound application, we developed a tissue sampling method--STAMP (Surfactant-based Tissue Acquisition for Molecular Profiling)--for rapid one-step determination of functional tissue chemistry in vivo. We specifically demonstrate STAMP-assisted profiling of a multitude of proteins, lipids, and genomic DNA in skin and mucosal tissues. Applications of this sampling methodology to rapid molecular diagnostics of cutaneous allergies and infectious diseases are also presented.
