2-Fluoro-5-nitrophenyldiazonium: A Novel Sanger-Type Reagent for the Versatile Functionalization of Alcohols.

ABSTRACT: As a novel Sanger-type reagent, 2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyldiazonium tetrafluoroborate enabled the versatile functionalization of primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols. Based on a mild nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the fluorine atom under unprecedented, base-free conditions, the diazonium unit on the aromatic core of the resulting aryl-alkyl ether could be employed for such diverse transformations as radical C-H activation and cyclization, as well as palladium catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

Pentafluorobenzene end-group as a versatile handle for <i>para</i> fluoro "click" functionalization of polythiophenes.

Project description:A convenient method of introducing pentafluorobenzene (PFB) as a single end-group in polythiophene derivatives is reported via in situ quenching of the polymerization. We demonstrate that the PFB-group is a particularly useful end-group due to its ability to undergo fast nucleophilic aromatic substitutions. Using this molecular handle, we are able to quantitatively tether a variety of common nucleophiles to the polythiophene backbone. The mild conditions required for the reaction allows sensitive functional moieties, such as biotin or a cross-linkable trimethoxysilane, to be introduced as end-groups. The high yield enabled the formation of a diblock rod-coil polymer from equimolar reactants under transition metal-free conditions at room temperature. We further demonstrate that water soluble polythiophenes end-capped with PFB can be prepared via the hydrolysis of an ester precursor, and that such polymers are amenable to functionalization under aqueous conditions.

Serinol-Based Versatile Disulfide-Reducing Reagent.

Project description:Here, we report the synthesis of disulfide-reducing agents 2-(dibenzylamino) propane-1,3-dithiol (DPDT) and 2-(dibenzylamino)-2-methylpropane-1,3-dithiol (DMPDT) from serinol and methyl serinol, respectively. DPDT was found to show greater stability than DMPDT. Hence, the effectiveness of DPDT as a reducing agent was evaluated in both liquid and solid phases. The reducing capacity of this agent was comparable to that of DTT.

An effective reagent to functionalize alcohols with phosphocholine.

Project description:Phosphocholine is a small haptenic molecule that is both a precursor and degradation product of choline. Phosphocholine decorates a number of biologics such as lipids and oligosaccharides. In this study, an air and bench stable phosphocholine donor has been developed and evaluated with a number of alcohol acceptors. Using a one-pot, three-step sequence, (phosphitylation, oxidation, and phosphate deprotection) phosphocholine derivatives are synthesized in high yields. Of particular interest is the synthesis of miltefosine, the lone oral drug approved to treat leishmaniasis. Due to its prohibitive expense ($1500 per g), miltefosine is not accesable for the majority of the world's patients. Based on the described reaction sequence, this drug can be produced for $25 per g.

Alcohols as alkylating agents in heteroarene C-H functionalization.

Project description:Redox processes and radical intermediates are found in many biochemical processes, including deoxyribonucleotide synthesis and oxidative DNA damage. One of the core principles underlying DNA biosynthesis is the radical-mediated elimination of H2O to deoxygenate ribonucleotides, an example of 'spin-centre shift', during which an alcohol C-O bond is cleaved, resulting in a carbon-centred radical intermediate. Although spin-centre shift is a well-understood biochemical process, it is underused by the synthetic organic chemistry community. We wondered whether it would be possible to take advantage of this naturally occurring process to accomplish mild, non-traditional alkylation reactions using alcohols as radical precursors. Because conventional radical-based alkylation methods require the use of stoichiometric oxidants, increased temperatures or peroxides, a mild protocol using simple and abundant alkylating agents would have considerable use in the synthesis of diversely functionalized pharmacophores. Here we describe the development of a dual catalytic alkylation of heteroarenes, using alcohols as mild alkylating reagents. This method represents the first, to our knowledge, broadly applicable use of unactivated alcohols as latent alkylating reagents, achieved via the successful merger of photoredox and hydrogen atom transfer catalysis. The value of this multi-catalytic protocol has been demonstrated through the late-stage functionalization of the medicinal agents, fasudil and milrinone.

Remote Functionalization by Pd-Catalyzed Isomerization of Alkynyl Alcohols.

Project description:In recent years, progress has been made in the development of catalytic methods that allow remote functionalizations based on alkene isomerization. In contrast, protocols based on alkyne isomerization are comparatively rare. Herein, we report a general Pd-catalyzed long-range isomerization of alkynyl alcohols. Starting from aryl-, heteroaryl-, or alkyl-substituted precursors, the optimized system provides access preferentially to the thermodynamically more stable α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and is compatible with potentially sensitive functional groups. We showed that the migration of both π-components of the carbon-carbon triple bond can be sustained over several methylene units. Computational investigations served to shed light on the key elementary steps responsible for the reactivity and selectivity. These include an unorthodox phosphine-assisted deprotonation rather than a more conventional β-hydride elimination in the final tautomerization event.

Versatile dehydrogenation of carbonyls enabled by an iodine(III) reagent.

Project description:We report the utilisation of an iodine(III) reagent to access α,β-unsaturated carbonyls from the corresponding silyl enol ethers of ketones and aldehydes, and from enol phosphates of lactones and lactams. The transformation is rapid, scalable, and can be carried out in one pot, directly dehydrogenating saturated carbonyls.

Nucleophilic Functionalization of 2-R-3-Nitropyridines as a Versatile Approach to Novel Fluorescent Molecules.

Project description:A number of new 2-methyl- and 2-arylvinyl-3-nitropyridines were synthesized and their reactions with thiols were studied. It was found that 3-NO2 tends to be selectively substituted under the action of sulfur nucleophiles in the presence of another nucleofuge in position 5. Correlations between the substitution pattern and regioselectivity as well as photophysical properties were established. Some synthesized compounds possessed a large Stokes shift.

Versatile 3' Functionalization of CRISPR Single Guide RNA.

Project description:Specific applications of CRISPR/Cas genome editing systems benefit from chemical modifications of the sgRNA. Herein we describe a versatile and efficient strategy for functionalization of the 3'-end of a sgRNA. An exemplary collection of six chemically modified sgRNAs was prepared containing crosslinkers, a fluorophore and biotin. Modification of the sgRNA 3'-end was broadly tolerated by Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 in an in?vitro DNA cleavage assay. The 3'-biotinylated sgRNA was used as an affinity reagent to identify IGF2BP1, YB1 and hnRNP?K as sgRNA-binding proteins present in HEK293T cells. Overall, the modification strategy presented here has the potential to expand on current applications of CRISPR/Cas systems.

Versatile Functionalization of Carbon Nanomaterials by Ferrate(VI).

Project description:As a high-valent iron compound with Fe in the highest accessible oxidation state, ferrate(VI) brings unique opportunities for a number of areas where chemical oxidation is essential. Recently, it is emerging as a novel oxidizing agent for materials chemistry, especially for the oxidation of carbon materials. However, the reported reactivity in liquid phase (H2SO4 medium) is confusing, which ranges from aggressive to moderate, and even incompetent. Meanwhile, the solid-state reactivity underlying the "dry" chemistry of ferrate(VI) remains poorly understood. Herein, we scrutinize the reactivity of K2FeO4 using fullerene C60 and various nanocarbons as substrates. The results unravel a modest reactivity in liquid phase that only oxidizes the active defects on carbon surface and a powerful oxidizing ability in solid state that can open the inert C=C bonds in carbon lattice. We also discuss respective benefit and limitation of the wet and dry approaches. Our work provides a rational understanding on the oxidizing ability of ferrate(VI) and can guide its application in functionalization/transformation of carbons and also other kinds of materials.

Visible light-induced direct α C-H functionalization of alcohols.

Project description:Considering the synthetic value of introducing active alcoholic hydroxyl group, developing C-H functionalization of alcohols is of significance. Herein, we present a photochemical method that under visible light irradiation, selectfluor can effectively promote the oxidative cross-coupling between alcohols and heteroarenes without the external photocatalysis, achieving the selective α sp3 C-H arylation of alcohol, even in the presence of ether. The N-F activation of selectfluor under blue LEDs irradiation is evidenced by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study, which is the key process for the oxidative activation of α sp3 C-H alcohols. The observed reactivity may have significant implications for chemical transformations.
