Carboxylate breaks the arene C-H bond via a hydrogen-atom-transfer mechanism in electrochemical cobalt catalysis.

ABSTRACT: Combined computational and experimental studies elucidated the distinctive mechanistic features of electrochemical cobalt-catalyzed C-H oxygenation. A sequential electrochemical-chemical (EC) process was identified for the formation of an amidylcobalt(iii) intermediate. The synthesis, characterization, cyclic voltammetry studies, and stoichiometric reactions of the related amidylcobalt(iii) intermediate suggested that a second on-cycle electro-oxidation occurs on the amidylcobalt(iii) species, which leads to a formal Co(iv) intermediate. This amidylcobalt(iv) intermediate is essentially a cobalt(iii) complex with one additional single electron distributed on the coordinating heteroatoms. The radical nature of the coordinating pivalate allows the formal Co(iv) intermediate to undergo a novel carboxylate-assisted HAT mechanism to cleave the arene C-H bond, and a CMD mechanism could be excluded for a Co(iii/i) catalytic scenario. The mechanistic understanding of electrochemical cobalt-catalyzed C-H bond activation highlights the multi-tasking electro-oxidation and the underexplored reaction channels in electrochemical transition metal catalysis.

Silane- and peroxide-free hydrogen atom transfer hydrogenation using ascorbic acid and cobalt-photoredox dual catalysis.

Project description:Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) hydrogenation has recently emerged as an indispensable method for the chemoselective reduction of unactivated alkenes. However, the hitherto reported systems basically require stoichiometric amounts of silanes and peroxides, which prevents wider applications, especially with respect to sustainability and safety concerns. Herein, we report a silane- and peroxide-free HAT hydrogenation using a combined cobalt/photoredox catalysis and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) as a sole stoichiometric reactant. A cobalt salophen complex is identified as the optimal cocatalyst for this environmentally benign HAT hydrogenation in aqueous media, which exhibits high functional-group tolerance. In addition to its applicability in the late-stage hydrogenation of amino-acid derivatives and drug molecules, this method offers unique advantage in direct transformation of unprotected sugar derivatives and allows the HAT hydrogenation of unprotected C-glycoside in higher yield compared to previously reported HAT hydrogenation protocols. The proposed mechanism is supported by experimental and theoretical studies.

The hydrogen atom transfer reactivity of a porphyrinoid cobalt superoxide complex.

Project description:The H-atom transfer (HAT) reactivity of a corrolazine cobalt superoxide with weak O-H and N-H substrates has been demonstrated. Kinetic analysis shows relatively fast rates of HAT with diphenylhydrazine (DPH). A kinetic isotope effect (KIE) and Eyring activation parameters are consistent with an HAT mechanism.

O-H bond activation of β,γ-unsaturated oximes <i>via</i> hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and photoredox dual catalysis.

Project description:Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and photoredox dual catalysis provides a unique opportunity in organic synthesis, enabling the direct activation of C/Si/S-H bonds. However, the activation of O-H bonds of β,γ-unsaturated oximes poses a challenge due to their relatively high redox potential, which exceeds the oxidizing capacity of most currently developed photocatalysts. We here demonstrate that the combination of HAT and photoredox catalysis allows the activation of O-H bond of β,γ-unsaturated oximes. The strategy effectively addresses the oxime's high redox potential and offers a universal pathway for iminoxyl radical formation. Leveraging the versatility of this approach, a diverse array of valuable heterocycles have been synthesized with the use of different radical acceptors. Mechanistic studies confirm a HAT process for the O-H bond activation.

Tandem catalysis of ring-closing metathesis/atom transfer radical reactions with homobimetallic ruthenium-arene complexes.

Project description:The tandem catalysis of ring-closing metathesis/atom transfer radical reactions was investigated with the homobimetallic ruthenium-indenylidene complex [(p-cymene)Ru(?-Cl)?RuCl(3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)(PCy?)] (1) to generate active species in situ. The two catalytic processes were first carried out independently in a case study before the whole sequence was optimized and applied to the synthesis of several polyhalogenated bicyclic ?-lactams and lactones from ?,?-diene substrates bearing trihaloacetamide or trichloroacetate functionalities. The individual steps were carefully monitored by ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectroscopies in order to understand the intimate details of the catalytic cycles. Polyhalogenated substrates and the ethylene released upon metathesis induced the clean transformation of catalyst precursor 1 into the Ru(II)-Ru(III) mixed-valence compound [(p-cymene)Ru(?-Cl)?RuCl(2)(PCy?)], which was found to be an efficient promoter for atom transfer radical reactions under the adopted experimental conditions.

Catalytic Synthesis of Indolines by Hydrogen Atom Transfer to Cobalt(III)-Carbene Radicals.

Project description:We report a new method for the synthesis of indolines from o-aminobenzylidine N-tosylhydrazones proceeding through a cobalt(III)-carbene radical intermediate. This methodology employs the use of inexpensive commercially available reagents and allows for the transformation of easily derivatized benzaldehyde-derived precursors to functionalized indoline products. This transformation takes advantage of the known propensity of radicals to undergo rapid intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer (1,5-HAT) to form more stabilized radical intermediates. Computational investigations using density functional theory identify remarkably low barriers for 1,5-HAT and subsequent radical rebound displacement, providing support for the proposed mechanism. We explore the effect of a variety of nitrogen substituents, and highlight the importance of adequate resonance stabilization of radical intermediates to the success of the transformation. Furthermore, we evaluate the steric and electronic effects of substituents on the aniline ring. This transformation is the first reported example of the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles from cobalt(III)-carbene radical precursors.

Concerted hydrogen atom and electron transfer mechanism for catalysis by lysine-specific demethylase.

Project description:We calculate the free energy profile for the postulated hydride transfer reaction mechanism for the catalysis of lysine demethylation by lysine-specific demethylase LSD1. The potential energy surface is obtained by using combined electrostatically embedded multiconfiguration molecular mechanics (EE-MCMM) and single-configuration molecular mechanics (MM). We employ a constant valence bond coupling term to obtain analytical energies and gradients of the EE-MCMM subsystem, which contains 45 quantum mechanics (QM) atoms and which is parametrized with density functional calculations employing specific reaction parameters obtained by matching high-level wave function calculations. In the MM region, we employ the Amber ff03 and TIP3P force fields. The free energy of activation at 300 K is calculated by molecular dynamics (MD) umbrella sampling on a system with 102,090 atoms as the maximum of the free energy profile along the reaction coordinate as obtained by the weighted histogram analysis method with 17 umbrella sampling windows. This yields a free energy of activation of only 10 kcal/mol, showing that the previously postulated direct hydride transfer reaction mechanism is plausible, although we find that it is better interpreted as a concerted transfer of a hydrogen atom and an electron.

Non-classical selectivities in the reduction of alkenes by cobalt-mediated hydrogen atom transfer.

Project description:Classical methods for alkene hydrogenation typically reduce less-substituted or more-strained alkenes, or those in proximity to a directing group, most rapidly. Here we describe a cobalt-mediated hydrogenation protocol that provides complementary selectivities in the reduction of several classes of olefins and alkynes. The selectivity of this reduction derives from a hydrogen atom transfer mechanism, which favors the generation of the more stable alkylradical intermediate. We also report the first alkene hydrobromination, hydroiodination, and hydroselenylation by a hydrogen atom transfer process.

Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydrogen-Atom Transfer Induces Bicyclizations that Tolerate Electron-Rich and Electron-Deficient Intermediate Alkenes.

Project description:A novel CoII -catalyzed polyene cyclization was developed that is uniquely effective when performed in hexafluoroisopropanol as the solvent. The process is presumably initiated by metal-catalyzed hydrogen-atom transfer (MHAT) to 1,1-disubstituted or monosubstituted alkenes, and the reaction is remarkable for its tolerance of internal alkenes bearing either electron-rich methyl or electron-deficient nitrile substituents. Electron-rich aromatic terminators are required in both cases. Terpenoid scaffolds with different substitution patterns are obtained with excellent diastereoselectivities, and the bioactive C20-oxidized abietane diterpenoid carnosaldehyde was made to showcase the utility of the nitrile-bearing products. Also provided are the results of several mechanistic experiments that suggest the process features an MHAT-induced radical bicyclization with late-stage oxidation to regenerate the aromatic terminator.

Reactivity of hydropersulfides toward the hydroxyl radical unraveled: disulfide bond cleavage, hydrogen atom transfer, and proton-coupled electron transfer.

Project description:Hydropersulfides (RSSH) are highly reactive as nucleophiles and hydrogen atom transfer reagents. These chemical properties are believed to be key for them to act as antioxidants in cells. The reaction involving the radical species and the disulfide bond (S-S) in RSSH, a known redox-active group, however, has been scarcely studied, resulting in an incomplete understanding of the chemical nature of RSSH. We have performed a high-level theoretical investigation on the reactions of the hydroxyl radical (?OH) toward a set of RSSH (R = -H, -CH3, -NH2, -C(O)OH, -CN, and -NO2). The results show that S-S cleavage and H-atom abstraction are the two competing channels. The electron inductive effect of R induces selective ?OH substitution at one sulfur atom upon S-S cleavage, forming RSOH and ?SH for the electron donating groups (EDGs), whereas producing HSOH and ?SR for the electron withdrawing groups (EWGs). The H-Atom abstraction by ?OH follows a classical hydrogen atom transfer (hat) mechanism, producing RSS? and H2O. Surprisingly, a proton-coupled electron transfer (pcet) process also occurs for R being an EDG. Although for RSSH having EWGs hat is the leading channel, S-S cleavage can be competitive or even dominant for the EDGs. The overall reactivity of RSSH toward ?OH attack is greatly enhanced with the presence of an EDG, with CH3SSH being the most reactive species found in this study (overall rate constant: 4.55 × 1012 M-1 s-1). Our results highlight the complexity in RSSH reaction chemistry, the extent of which is closely modulated by the inductive effect of the substituents in the case of the oxidation by hydroxyl radicals.
