Rhodium-Catalyzed Oxidative Annulation of 2- or 7-Arylindoles with Alkenes/Alkynes Using Molecular Oxygen as the Sole Oxidant Enabled by Quaternary Ammonium Salt.

ABSTRACT: Developing an efficient catalytic system using molecular oxygen as the oxidant for rhodium-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling remains highly desirable. Herein, rhodium-catalyzed oxidative annulation of 2- or 7-phenyl-1H-indoles with alkenes or alkynes to assemble valuable 6H-isoindolo[2,1-a]indoles, pyrrolo[3,2,1-de]phenanthridines, or indolo[2,1-a]isoquinolines using the atmospheric pressure of air as the sole oxidant enabled by quaternary ammonium salt has been accomplished. Mechanistic studies provided evidence for the fast intramolecular aza-Michael reaction and aerobic reoxidation of Rh(I)/Rh(III), facilitated by the addition of quaternary ammonium salt.

Divergent rhodium-catalyzed electrochemical vinylic C-H annulation of acrylamides with alkynes.

Project description:α-Pyridones and α-pyrones are ubiquitous structural motifs found in natural products and biologically active small molecules. Here, we report an Rh-catalyzed electrochemical vinylic C-H annulation of acrylamides with alkynes, affording cyclic products in good to excellent yield. Divergent syntheses of α-pyridones and cyclic imidates are accomplished by employing N-phenyl acrylamides and N-tosyl acrylamides as substrates, respectively. Additionally, excellent regioselectivities are achieved when using unsymmetrical alkynes. This electrochemical process is environmentally benign compared to traditional transition metal-catalyzed C-H annulations because it avoids the use of stoichiometric metal oxidants. DFT calculations elucidated the reaction mechanism and origins of substituent-controlled chemoselectivity. The sequential C-H activation and alkyne insertion under rhodium catalysis leads to the seven-membered ring vinyl-rhodium intermediate. This intermediate undergoes either the classic neutral concerted reductive elimination to produce α-pyridones, or the ionic stepwise pathway to produce cyclic imidates.

Rhodium(III)-catalyzed dearomatizing (3 + 2) annulation of 2-alkenylphenols and alkynes.

Project description:Appropriately substituted 2-alkenylphenols undergo a mild formal [3C+2C] cycloaddition with alkynes when treated with a Rh(III) catalyst and an oxidant. The reaction, which involves the cleavage of the terminal C-H bond of the alkenyl moiety and the dearomatization of the phenol ring, provides a versatile and efficient approach to highly appealing spirocyclic skeletons and occurs with high selectivity.

Hydrogenation of Alkynes and Olefins Catalyzed by Quaternary Ammonium Salts.

Project description:Catalytic hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons to alkenes and alkanes using molecular hydrogen is one of the most fundamental transformations in organic synthesis. While methodologies involving transition metals as catalysts in homogeneous and heterogeneous processes have been well developed, metal-free catalytic hydrogenation offers an ideal approach for future chemistry. Herein, the common and inexpensive quaternary ammonium salts are first introduced as catalysts in the catalytic hydrogenation system for the transformations from alkynes or olefins into the corresponding olefins or alkanes. Interestingly, the hydrogenation process of alkynes can be controlled to selectively produce alkenes or alkanes under different conditions. Moreover, the possible mechanism is discussed in new insights into the catalytic behavior of quaternary ammonium salts.

Oxidative [4+2] annulation of styrenes with alkynes under external-oxidant-free conditions.

Project description:The sequenced Diels-Alder/oxidation reaction represents a powerful route for the construction of aromatic compounds in organic synthesis. The oxidative Diels-Alder reaction with H2 evolution would be a more ideal approach that can avoid the additional oxidation procedure and stoichiometric oxidant. Herein, an oxidative [4 + 2] annulation reaction of styrene derivatives with electron-rich dienophiles accompanying the H2 generation has been developed by using the synergistic merger of photoredox and cobaloxime catalyst. With respect to atom and step-economy ideals, this dual catalytic system enables the formation of high-value molecules from feedstock chemicals in a single step under room temperature.

Generation of rhodium(I) carbenes from ynamides and their reactions with alkynes and alkenes.

Project description:Rh(I) carbenes were conveniently generated from readily available ynamides. These metal carbene intermediates could undergo metathesis with electron-rich or neutral alkynes to afford 2-oxopyrrolidines or be trapped by tethered alkenes to yield 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes, a common skeleton in numerous bioactive pharmaceuticals. Although the scope of the former is limited, the latter reaction tolerates various substituted alkenes.

Intermolecular [5+2] Annulation between 1-Indanones and Internal Alkynes by Rhodium-Catalyzed C-C Activation.

Project description:Herein, we report a [5+2] cycloaddition between readily accessible 1-indanones and internal alkynes through Rh-catalyzed activation of less strained C-C bonds. The reaction is enabled by a strongly σ-donating NHC ligand and a carefully modified temporary directing group. A wide range of functional groups is tolerated, and the method provides straightforward access to diverse benzocycloheptenones that are hard to access otherwise. DFT studies of the reaction mechanism imply the migration insertion as the turnover-limiting step and suggest beneficial π-π interactions in the transition states.

Annulation cascade of arylnitriles with alkynes to stable delocalized PAH carbocations via intramolecular rhodium migration.

Project description:Herein, we propose the conception of heteroatom-promoted delocalization of the positive charge of an oxonium ion and thus develop a highly efficient rhodium(iii)-catalyzed hydration and three fold C-H activation/annulation cascade of arylnitriles with alkynes, affording a structurally diverse family of delocalized polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) carbocations. DFT calculations demonstrate that the positive charge mostly locates around the C1 atom and is partly delocalized by ambient N, O1 and C5 atoms. A mechanistic study indicates that the hydration of the arylnitrile and three fold insertion of the alkyne is a successive process rather than a step by step process, wherein a unique intramolecular rhodium migration is probably involved. These novel carbeniums show tunable fluorescence emission, low cytotoxicity and the ability to specifically target lysosomes.

Rhodium-catalysed direct hydroarylation of alkenes and alkynes with phosphines through phosphorous-assisted C-H activation.

Project description:Biarylphosphines have been widely applied as ligands in various synthetic methods, especially in transition-metal-catalysed carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond cross-coupling reactions. Based on the outstanding properties of the parent scaffolds, a general method for in situ modification of the commercial tertiary phosphine ligands to access a series of ligands is in high demand. Here we show that a rhodium-catalysed system is introduced for the hydroarylation of alkenes and alkynes with tertiary phosphines through P(III)-chelation assisted C-H activation. A series of ligand libraries containing alkyl and alkenyl substituted groups with different steric and electronic properties are obtained in high yields. Furthermore, several experimental studies are performed to uncover the key mechanistic features of the linear-selective hydroarylation of alkenes and branch-selective hydroarylation of alkynes.

Annulation of Hydrazones and Alkynes via Rhodium(III)-Catalyzed Dual C-H Activation: Synthesis of Pyrrolopyridazines and Azolopyridazines.

Project description:Hydrazones readily synthesized from N-aminopyrroles or N-aminoazoles and aldehydes undergo Rh(III)-catalyzed dual C-H activation and coupling with aryl- and alkyl-substituted alkynes to give pyrrolopyridazines or azolopyridazines, respectively. This transformation represents a rare example of hydrazoyl C-H activation and proceeds without heteroatom functionality to direct C-H activation. Hydrazones derived from aromatic, alkenyl, and aliphatic aldehydes were effective inputs, and tethering the alkyne to the hydrazone enabled annulations to more complex, tricyclic products.
