Au-Cavitands: Size governed arene-alkyne cycloisomerization.

ABSTRACT: With an inwardly directed reactive center and a well-defined binding pocket, Au(I) functionalized resorcin[4]arene cavitands have been shown to catalyze molecular transformations. The reactivity profiles that emerge differ from other Au(I) catalysts. The added constraint of a binding pocket gives rise to the possibility that the substrates might have to fit into the resorcinarene pocket; our hypothesis is that substrates that match the available space have different reaction outcomes than those that do not. Herein we report on the intramolecular cyclization of alkyne-aromatic substrates with variable alkynes and aromatic composition. We see that scaffold size most drastically dictates reactivity, especially when the substrate's features are particularly designed. The results of these experiments add to the veritable goldmine of information about the selectivity in catalysis that cavitands offer.

Tandem aldehyde-alkyne-amine coupling/cycloisomerization: A new synthesis of coumarins.

Project description:Cu-catalyzed A(3) coupling of ethoxyacetylene, pyrrolidine and salicylaldehydes led to a concomitant cycloisomerization followed by hydrolysis of the resultant vinyl ether to afford coumarins in a cascade process. The reaction proceeded through exclusive 6-endo-dig cyclization and is compatible with halo and keto groups giving coumarins in good to moderate yields.

Asymmetric Au-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 1,6-enynes: An entry to bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene.

Project description:A comprehensive study on the asymmetric gold-catalyzed cycloisomerization reaction of heteroatom tethered 1,6-enynes is described. The cycloisomerization reactions were conducted in the presence of the chiral cationic Au(I) catalyst consisting of (R)-4-MeO-3,5-(t-Bu)(2)-MeOBIPHEP-(AuCl)(2) complex and silver salts (AgOTf or AgNTf(2)) in toluene under mild conditions to afford functionalized bicyclo[4.1.0]heptene derivatives. The reaction conditions were found to be highly substrate-dependent, the best results being obtained in the case of oxygen-tethered enynes. The formation of bicyclic derivatives, including cyclopropyl pentasubstituted ones, was reported in moderate to good yields and in enantiomeric excesses up to 99%.

Hydrogenative Cycloisomerization and Sigmatropic Rearrangement Reactions of Cationic Ruthenium Carbenes Formed by Catalytic Alkyne gem-Hydrogenation.

Project description:gem-Hydrogenation of propargyl alcohol derivatives with [CpX Ru(MeCN)3 ]PF6 (CpX =substituted cyclopentadienyl) as catalysts affords cationic pianostool ruthenium carbene complexes which are so electrophilic that they attack a tethered olefin to furnish cyclopentene products; cyclopropanation or metathesis do not compete with this novel transformation. If the transient carbenes carry appropriate propargylic substituents, however, they engage in ([2,3]-sigmatropic) rearrangements to give enol esters (carbonates, carbamates, sulfonates) or alkenyl halides. Both pathways are unprecedented in the vast hydrogenation literature. The proposed mechanistic scenarios are in line with labeling experiments and spectroscopic data; most notably, PHIP NMR spectroscopy (PHIP=parahydrogen induced polarization) provides compelling evidence that the reactions are indeed triggered by highly unorthodox gem-hydrogenation events.

Au(I) Catalyzed HF Transfer: Tandem Alkyne Hydrofluorination and Perfluoroarene Functionalization.

Project description:HF transfer reactions between organic substrates are potentially useful transformations. Such reactions require the development of catalytic systems that can promote both defluorination and fluorination steps in a single reaction sequence. Herein, we report a catalytic protocol in which an equivalent of HF is generated from a perfluoroarene | nucleophile pair and transferred directly to an alkyne. The reaction is catalyzed by [Au(IPr)NiPr2] (IPr = N,N'-1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene). HF transfer generates two useful products in the form of functionalized fluoroarenes and fluoroalkenes. Mechanistic studies (rate laws, KIEs, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, competition experiments) are consistent with the Au(I) catalyst facilitating a catalytic network involving both concerted SNAr and hydrofluorination steps. The nature of the nucleophile impacts the turnover-limiting step. The cSNAr step is turnover-limiting for phenol-based nucleophiles, while protodeuaration likely becomes turnover-limiting for aniline-based nucleophiles. The approach removes the need for direct handling of HF reagents in hydrofluorination and offers possibilities to manipulate the fluorine content of organic molecules through catalysis.

Stepwise alkyne insertion in Au(i) acetylides: influence of the nuclearity.

Project description:The reaction between NHC-supported (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) gold(i) trimethylsilylacetylide complexes with NHC gold(i) hydroxide species renders different symmetrical homobimetallic Au complexes. These compounds readily undergo migratory insertion of DMAD (dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate) at 25 °C to give the corresponding bimetallic enyne products. On the contrary, monometallic analogues require much more forcing conditions (excess of DMAD and temperature ≥110 °C) to give the same transformation. Experimental and computational studies reveal that the second metal fragment is responsible for the enhanced nucleophilicity of the reactive carbon atom of the acetylide C[triple bond, length as m-dash]C bond, which initially leads to a more favorable interaction with DMAD in the rate-determining step of an unprecedented, stepwise mechanism where the lability of the Au-C bonds plays an instrumental role. The enhanced reactivity displayed by the bimetallic species was leveraged in the insertion of other substrates such as heterocumulenes.

Diffusive Formation of Au/Ag Alloy Nanoparticles of Governed Composition in Glass.

Project description:For the first time we show that the introduction of silver ions in the glass containing gold nanoparticles (NPs) and additional heat treatment of the glass in the air lead to the formation of Au/Ag alloy NPs. The proposed approach makes it possible to position localized surface plasmon resonance of the NPs by selecting the heat treatment temperature, which determines the silver proportion in the alloy NPs. This allows for expanding customizability of NPs for applications in surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy, catalysis and biochemistry. Developed technique benefits from the presence of silver in the glass in ionic form, which prevents the oxidation of silver and provides stable preparation of Au/Ag alloy NPs.

Multipodal Au-C grafting of calix[4]arene molecules on gold nanorods.

Project description:The interface robustness and spatial arrangement of functional molecules on metallic nanomaterials play a key part in the potential applications of functional nano-objects. The design of mechanically stable and electronically coupled attachments with the underlying metal is essential to bring specific desirable properties to the resulting hybrid materials. In this context, rigid multipodal platforms constitute a unique opportunity for the controllable grafting of functionality. Herein, we provide for the first time an in-depth description of the interface between gold nanorods and a chemically-grafted multipodal platform based on diazonium salts. Thanks to Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies and theoretical modeling, we deliver insights on the structural and electronic properties of the hybrid material. More importantly, it allows for the accurate assignment of Raman bands. The combination of experimental and theoretical results establishes the formation of four carbon-gold anchors for the calix[4]arene macrocycle leading to the exceptional stability of the functionalized nano-objects. Our results lay the foundations for the future design of robust and versatile platforms.

[Au(Np<sup>#</sup>)Cl]: Highly Reactive and Broadly Applicable Au(I)─NHC Catalysts for Alkyne π-Activation Reactions.

Project description:Cationic Au(I)─NHC (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) complexes have become an important class of catalysts for alkyne π-activation reactions in organic synthesis. In particular, these complexes are characterized by high stability of catalytic species engendered by strong σ-donation and metal backbonding. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of well-defined [Au(NHC)Cl] complexes featuring recently discovered IPr# family of ligands that hinge upon modular peralkylation of aniline. These ligands have been commercialized in collaboration with MilliporeSigma (IPr#: 915653; Np#: 915912; BIAN-IPr#: 916420). Evaluation of the [Au(NHC)Cl] complexes in a series of Au(I)─NHC-catalyzed π-functionalizations of alkynes, such as hydrocarboxylation, hydroamination and hydration, resulted in the identification of wingtip-flexible [Au(Np#)Cl] as a highly reactive and broadly applicable catalyst with the re-activity outperforming the classical [Au(IPr)Cl] and [Au(IPr*)Cl] complexes. The utility of this catalyst has been demonstrated in the direct late-stage derivatization of complex pharmaceuticals. Structural and computational studies were conducted to determine steric effects, frontier molecular orbitals and bond orders of this class of catalysts. Considering the attractive features of well-defined Au(I)─NHC complexes, we anticipate that this class of bulky and wingtip-flexible Au(I)─NHCs based on the modular peralkylated naphthylamine scaffold will find broad application in π-functionalization of alkynes in various areas of organic synthesis and catalysis.
