Transition-metal-free allylation of 2-azaallyls with allyl ethers through polar and radical mechanisms.

ABSTRACT: Allylation of nucleophiles with highly reactive electrophiles like allyl halides can be conducted without metal catalysts. Less reactive electrophiles, such as allyl esters and carbonates, usually require a transition metal catalyst to facilitate the allylation. Herein, we report a unique transition-metal-free allylation strategy with allyl ether electrophiles. Reaction of a host of allyl ethers with 2-azaallyl anions delivers valuable homoallylic amine derivatives (up to 92%), which are significant in the pharmaceutical industry. Interestingly, no deprotonative isomerization or cyclization of the products were observed. The potential synthetic utility and ease of operation is demonstrated by a gram scale telescoped preparation of a homoallylic amine. In addition, mechanistic studies provide insight into these C(sp³)-C(sp³) bond-forming reactions.

Carboxylate-directed C-H allylation with allyl alcohols or ethers.

Project description:A [Ru(p-cymene)Cl2]2 catalyst activates allyl alcohols and ethers for the regioselective ortho-C-H allylation of aromatic and heteroaromatic carboxylates. The reaction is orthogonal to most C-H functionalisations with allyl alcohols in that allyl arenes rather than carbonyl compounds are obtained. A wide range of substrates are thus smoothly transformed to allylarenes at 50 °C in phosphate-buffered 2,2,2-trichloroethanol. The reaction concept combines the use of abundant reagents and directing groups in a sustainable, waste-minimised method for C-C bond formation.

Transition-Metal Catalyst Free Oxidative Radical Arylation of <i>N</i>-Methylpyrrole.

Project description:This study represents an expansion of the application of catalysis in air through conventional coupling and free radical processes. A reactive free aryl radical intermediate was generated via the oxidation of an activated Ar-NH-NH2 bond by air as a simple and readily available oxidant. For this purpose, the usability of phenylhydrazine and phenylhydrazine hydrochloride salt reagents for the direct arylation of pyrrole with aryl radicals was investigated. The facile coupling of N-methylpyrrole with aryl radicals was easily applied for the convenient direct synthesis of C-2 arylated pyrroles without a transition-metal catalyst.

Synthesis of benzothiophene and indole derivatives through metal-free propargyl-allene rearrangement and allyl migration.

Project description:An efficient base-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of benzothiophene is described. The reaction proceeds via base-promoted propargyl-allenyl rearrangement followed by cyclization and allyl migration. Phosphine-substituted indoles can be synthesized by a similar strategy.

Catalytic enantioselective allylation of dienals through the intermediacy of unsaturated pi-allyl complexes.

Project description:The nickel-catalyzed enantioselective addition of allylboronic acid pinacol ester [allylB(pin)] to alpha,beta,gamma,delta-unsaturated aldehydes is described. This reaction results in a remarkable inversion of substrate olefin geometry, providing the Z,E-configured reaction product in good enantioselectivity and olefin stereoselectivity. The reaction appears to proceed by conversion of the dienal to an unsaturated pi-allyl complex followed by reductive elimination via transition state II. Enantioselectivities range from 73-94% ee for a range of delta-substituted dienals when chiral ligand L3 is employed.

A transition-metal-free & diazo-free styrene cyclopropanation.

Project description:An operationally simple and broadly applicable novel cyclopropanation of styrenes using gem-diiodomethyl carbonyl reagents has been developed. Visible-light triggered the photoinduced generation of iodomethyl carbonyl radicals, able to cyclopropanate a wide array of styrenes with excellent chemoselectivity and functional group tolerance. To highlight the utility of our photocyclopropanation, we demonstrated the late-stage functionalization of biomolecule derivatives.

Metal-free electrochemical fluorodecarboxylation of aryloxyacetic acids to fluoromethyl aryl ethers.

Project description:Electrochemical decarboxylation of aryloxyacetic acids followed by fluorination provides easy access to fluoromethyl aryl ethers. This electrochemical fluorodecarboxylation offers a sustainable approach with electric current as traceless oxidant. Using Et3N·5HF as fluoride source and as supporting electrolyte, this simple electrosynthesis affords various fluoromethoxyarenes in yields up to 85%.

Transition metal triflate catalyzed conversion of alcohols, ethers and esters to olefins.

Project description:Herein, we report an efficient transition metal triflate catalyzed approach to convert biomass-based compounds, such as monoterpene alcohols, sugar alcohols, octyl acetate and tea tree oil, to their corresponding olefins in high yields. The reaction proceeds through C-O bond cleavage under solvent-free conditions, where the catalytic activity is determined by the oxophilicity and the Lewis acidity of the metal catalyst. In addition, we demonstrate how the oxygen containing functionality affects the formation of the olefins. Furthermore, the robustness of the used metal triflate catalysts, Fe(OTf)3 and Hf(OTf)4, is highlighted by their ability to convert an over 2400-fold excess of 2-octanol to octenes in high isolated yields.

Photocatalytic Reductive Radical-Polar Crossover for a Base-Free Corey-Seebach Reaction.

Project description:A metal-free generation of carbanion nucleophiles is of prime importance in organic synthesis. Herein we report a photocatalytic approach to the Corey-Seebach reaction. The presented method operates under mild redox-neutral and base-free conditions giving the desired product with high functional group tolerance. The reaction is enabled by the combination of photo- and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) catalysis. This catalytic merger allows a C-H to carbanion activation by the abstraction of a hydrogen atom followed by radical reduction. The generated nucleophilic intermediate is then capable of adding to carbonyl electrophiles. The obtained dithiane can be easily converted to the valuable α-hydroxy carbonyl in a subsequent step. The proposed reaction mechanism is supported by emission quenching, radical-radical homocoupling and deuterium labeling studies as well as by calculated redox-potentials and bond strengths.

Enantioselective hydroformylation of N-vinyl carboxamides, allyl carbamates, and allyl ethers using chiral diazaphospholane ligands.

Project description:Rhodium complexes of diazaphospholane ligands catalyze the asymmetric hydroformylation of N-vinyl carboxamides, allyl ethers, and allyl carbamates; products include 1,2- and 1,3-aminoaldehydes and 1,3-alkoxyaldehydes. Using glass pressure bottles, short reaction times (generally less than 6 h), and low catalyst loading (commonly 0.5 mol %), 20 substrates are successfully converted to chiral aldehydes with useful regioselectivity and high enantioselectivity (up to 99% ee). Chiral Roche aldehyde is obtained with 97% ee from the hydroformylation of allyl silyl ethers. Commonly difficult substrates such as 1,1- and 1,2-disubstituted alkenes undergo effective hydroformylation with 89-97% ee and complete conversion for six examples. Palladium-catalyzed aerobic oxidative amination of allyl benzyl ether followed by enantioselective hydroformylation yields the ?(3)-aminoaldehyde with 74% ee.
