Exploiting the radical reactivity of diazaphosphinanes in hydrodehalogenations and cascade cyclizations.

ABSTRACT: The remarkable reducibility of diazaphosphinanes has been extensively applied in various hydrogenations, based on and yet limited by their well-known hydridic reactivity. Here we exploited their unprecedented radical reactivity to implement hydrodehalogenations and cascade cyclizations originally inaccessible by hydride transfer. These reactions feature a broad substrate scope, high efficiency and simplicity of manipulation. Mechanistic studies suggested a radical chain process in which a phosphinyl radical is generated in a catalytic cycle via hydrogen-atom transfer from diazaphosphinanes. The radical reactivity of diazaphosphinanes disclosed here differs from their well-established hydridic reactivity, and hence, opens a new avenue for diazaphosphinane applications in organic syntheses.

Photocatalytic Reductive Cyclizations of Enones: Divergent Reactivity of Photogenerated Radical and Radical Anion Intermediates.

Project description:Photocatalytic reactions of enones using metal polypyridyl complexes proceed by very different reaction manifolds in the presence of either Lewis or Brønsted acid additives. Previous work from our lab demonstrated that photocatalytic [2+2] cycloadditions of enones required the presence of a Lewis acidic co-catalyst, presumably to activate the enone and stabilize the key radical anion intermediate. On the other hand, Brønsted acid activators alter this reactivity and instead promote reductive cyclization reactions of a variety of aryl and aliphatic enones via a neutral radical intermediate. These two distinct reactive intermediates give rise to transformations differing in the connectivity, stereochemistry, and oxidation state of their products. In addition, this reductive coupling method introduces a novel approach to the tin-free generation of β-ketoradicals that react with high diastereoselectivity and with the high functional group compatibility typical of radical cyclization reactions.

Exploiting Imine Photochemistry for Masked N-Centered Radical Reactivity.

Project description:This report details the development of a masked N-centered radical strategy that harvests the energy of light to drive the conversion of cyclopropylimines to 1-aminonorbornanes. This process employs the N-centered radical character of a photoexcited imine to facilitate the homolytic fragmentation of the cyclopropane ring and the subsequent radical cyclization sequence that forms two new C-C bonds en route to the norbornane core. Achieving bond-forming reactivity as a function of the N-centered radical character of an excited state Schiff base is unique, requiring only violet light in this instance. This methodology operates in continuous flow, enhancing the potential to translate beyond the academic sector. The operational simplicity of this photochemical process and the structural novelty of the (hetero)aryl-fused 1-aminonorbornane products are anticipated to provide a valuable addition to discovery efforts in pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries.

A total synthesis of estrone based on a novel cascade of radical cyclizations.

Project description:Two conceptually different and novel radical-mediated cascade reactions leading to a total synthesis of the steroid (+/-)-estrone 1 and to a synthesis of 14-epiestrone 40 are described. Treatment of the iododienynone 23 with Bu(3)SnH/2,2'-azobis(isobutyronitrile) (AIBN) triggers a 13-endo-dig radical macrocyclization followed by two sequential radical transannulation reactions leading to the crystalline estrane 24 in 50% yield. The x-ray crystal structure of 24 established its trans, syn, stereochemistry. Transposition of the enone functionality in 24 next led to 38, which was then converted into 39 by reductive methylation. Deprotection of the methyl ether 39 finally gave 14-epiestone 40. When the substituted iodovinylcyclopropane 55 was treated similarly with Bu(3)SnH/AIBN, the resulting radical center underwent a different sequence of cascade macrocyclization-transannulation reactions producing the trans, anti, trans estrane 56 in 12% overall yield. Oxidation of 56, using CrO(3)-H(2)SO(4) next led to the cyclopentanone 57, which, on deprotection using BBr(3) gave (+/-)-estrone 1. A number of alternative substituted iodopolyenynones and iodovinylcyclopropanes, i.e., 8a, 8b, 33, 49a, and 49b, underwent similar radical-mediated cascade cyclizations leading to other estranes, i.e., 21a, 21b, 35, and 50, and, in one case, to the 6,6,5,6-tetracycle 51, in variable overall yields. The structures and stereochemistries of several estranes were established by using x-ray crystal structure measurements in combination with analysis of their NMR spectroscopic data and correlation with literature precedent.

Redox-triggered cascade dearomative cyclizations enabled by hexafluoroisopropanol.

Project description:An unprecedented cascade dearomative cyclization through hydrogen-bonding-assisted hydride transfer is realized. The aggregate effect of HFIP enables the rapid buildup of polycyclic amines directly from phenols and o-aminobenzaldehydes via a cascade dearomatization/rearomatization/dearomatization sequence. This unique transformation addressed the drawbacks of hydride transfer-involved redox-neutral reactions.

Electrochemical radical cation aza-Wacker cyclizations.

Project description:Electrochemical or photochemical single-electron oxidation of bench-stable substrates can generate radical cations that offer unique reactivities as intermediates in various bond-formation processes. Such intermediates can potentially take part in both radical and ionic bond formation; however, the mechanisms involved are complicated and not fully understood. Herein, we report electrochemical radical cation aza-Wacker cyclizations under acidic conditions, which are expected to proceed via radical cations generated by single-electron oxidation of alkenes.

Factors Controlling Reactivity in the Hydrogen Atom Transfer and Radical Addition Steps of a Radical Relay Cascade.

Project description:DFT exploration of 1,5- and 1,6-hydrogen atom transfers (HAT), radical addition, and relay to alkene is reported. The reactivity of 1,5- and 1,6-HAT are similar. We also explored reactions involving a multiple radical transferring process. Initially generated radicals undergo a multiple HAT process to form multiple bonds in a "relay" fashion, provided by exquisitely balanced rates.

Practical radical cyclizations with arylboronic acids and trifluoroborates.

Project description:Practical radical cyclizations using organoboronic acids and trifluoroborates take place in water, open to air, and in a scalable fashion employing catalytic silver nitrate and stoichiometric potassium persulfate. Both Pschorr-type cyclizations and tandem radical cyclization/trap cascades are described, illustrating the utility of these mild conditions for the generation of polycyclic scaffolds.

Titania-promoted carboxylic acid alkylations of alkenes and cascade addition-cyclizations.

Project description:Photochemical reactions employing TiO2 and carboxylic acids under dry anaerobic conditions led to several types of C-C bond-forming processes with electron-deficient alkenes. The efficiency of alkylation varied appreciably with substituents in the carboxylic acids. The reactions of aryloxyacetic acids with maleimides resulted in a cascade process in which a pyrrolochromene derivative accompanied the alkylated succinimide. The selectivity for one or other of these products could be tuned to some extent by employing the photoredox catalyst under different conditions. Aryloxyacetic acids adapted for intramolecular ring closures by inclusion of 2-alkenyl, 2-aryl, or 2-oximinyl functionality reacted rather poorly. Profiles of reactant consumption and product formation for these systems were obtained by an in situ NMR monitoring technique. An array of different catalyst forms were tested for efficiency and ease of use. The proposed mechanism, involving hole capture at the TiO2 surface by the carboxylates followed by CO2 loss, was supported by EPR spectroscopic evidence of the intermediates. Deuterium labeling indicated that the titania likely donates protons from surface hydroxyl groups as well as supplying electrons and holes, thus acting as both a catalyst and a reaction partner.

Diastereoselective Radical 1,4-Ester Migration: Radical Cyclizations of Acyclic Esters with SmI<sub>2</sub>.

Project description:Reductive cyclizations of carbonyl compounds, mediated by samarium(II) diiodide (SmI2, Kagan's reagent), represent an invaluable platform to generate molecular complexity in a stereocontrolled manner. In addition to classical ketone and aldehyde substrates, recent advances in radical chemistry allow the cyclization of lactone and lactam-type substrates using SmI2. In contrast, acyclic esters are considered to be unreactive to SmI2 and their participation in reductive cyclizations is unprecedented. Here, we report a diastereoselective radical 1,4-ester migration process, mediated by SmI2, that delivers stereodefined alkene hydrocarboxylation products via radical cyclization of acyclic ester groups in α-carbomethoxy δ-lactones. Isotopic labeling experiments and computational studies have been used to probe the mechanism of the migration. We propose that a switch in conformation redirects single electron transfer from SmI2 to the acyclic ester group, rather than the "more reactive" lactone carbonyl. Our study paves the way for the use of elusive ketyl radicals, derived from acyclic esters, in SmI2-mediated reductive cyclizations.
