Radical C-H Trifluoromethoxylation of (Hetero)arenes with Bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide.

ABSTRACT: Trifluoromethoxylated (hetero)arenes are of great interest for several disciplines, especially in agro- and medicinal chemistry. Radical C-H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes represents an attractive approach to prepare such compounds, but the high cost and low atom economy of existing ^. OCF₃ radical sources make them unsuitable for the large-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated building blocks. Herein, we introduce bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide (BTMP, CF₃ OOCF₃ ) as a practical and efficient trifluoromethoxylating reagent that is easily accessible from inexpensive bulk chemicals. Using either visible light photoredox or TEMPO catalysis, trifluoromethoxylated arenes could be prepared in good yields under mild conditions directly from unactivated aromatics. Moreover, TEMPO catalysis allowed for the one-step synthesis of valuable pyridine derivatives, which have been previously prepared via multi-step approaches.

Selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes as limiting reagent.

Project description:Methods for direct C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes are rare, despite the importance of trifluoromethoxylated compounds for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and material sciences. Especially selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of pyridines remains a formidable challenge. Here we show a general late-stage C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes as limiting reagent with trifluoromethoxide anion. The reaction is mediated by silver salts under mild reaction conditions, exhibiting broad substrate scope and wide functional-group compatibility. In addition, ortho-position selective C-H trifluoromethoxylation of pyridines is observed. The method is not only applicable to the gram-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated products but also allows efficient late-stage C-H trifluoromethoxylation of marketed small-molecule drugs, common pharmacophores and natural products.

Mechanistic studies on intramolecular C-H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes via OCF3-migration.

Project description:The one-pot two-step intramolecular aryl and heteroaryl C-H trifluoromethoxylation recently reported by our group has provided a general, scalable, and operationally simple approach to access a wide range of unprecedented and valuable OCF3-containing building blocks. Herein we describe our investigations to elucidate its reaction mechanism. Experimental data indicate that the O-trifluoromethylation of N-(hetero)aryl-N-hydroxylamine derivatives is a radical process, whereas the OCF3-migration step proceeds via a heterolytic cleavage of the N-OCF3 bond followed by rapid recombination of a short-lived ion pair. Computational studies further support the proposed ion pair reaction pathway for the OCF3-migration process. We hope that the current study would provide useful insights for the development of new transformations using versatile N-(hetero)aryl-N-hydroxylamine synthons.

Redox-Neutral TEMPO Catalysis: Direct Radical (Hetero)Aryl C-H Di- and Trifluoromethoxylation.

Project description:Applications of TEMPO. catalysis for the development of redox-neutral transformations are rare. Reported here is the first TEMPO. -catalyzed, redox-neutral C-H di- and trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes. The reaction exhibits a broad substrate scope, has high functional-group tolerance, and can be employed for the late-stage functionalization of complex druglike molecules. Kinetic measurements, isolation and resubjection of catalytic intermediates, UV/Vis studies, and DFT calculations support the proposed oxidative TEMPO. /TEMPO+ redox catalytic cycle. Mechanistic studies also suggest that Li2 CO3 plays an important role in preventing catalyst deactivation. These findings will provide new insights into the design and development of novel reactions through redox-neutral TEMPO. catalysis.

Redox-Active Reagents for Photocatalytic Generation of the OCF3 Radical and (Hetero)Aryl C-H Trifluoromethoxylation.

Project description:The trifluoromethoxy (OCF3 ) radical is of great importance in organic chemistry. Yet, the catalytic and selective generation of this radical at room temperature and pressure remains a longstanding challenge. Herein, the design and development of a redox-active cationic reagent (1) that enables the formation of the OCF3 radical in a controllable, selective, and catalytic fashion under visible-light photocatalytic conditions is reported. More importantly, the reagent allows catalytic, intermolecular C-H trifluoromethoxylation of a broad array of (hetero)arenes and biorelevant compounds. Experimental and computational studies suggest single electron transfer (SET) from excited photoredox catalysts to 1 resulting in exclusive liberation of the OCF3 radical. Addition of this radical to (hetero)arenes gives trifluoromethoxylated cyclohexadienyl radicals that are oxidized and deprotonated to afford the products of trifluoromethoxylation.

Catalytic C-H Trifluoromethoxylation of Arenes and Heteroarenes.

Project description:The intermolecular C-H trifluoromethoxylation of arenes remains a long-standing and unsolved problem in organic synthesis. Herein, we report the first catalytic protocol employing a novel trifluoromethoxylating reagent and redox-active catalysts for the direct (hetero)aryl C-H trifluoromethoxylation. Our approach is operationally simple, proceeds at room temperature, uses easy-to-handle reagents, requires only 0.03?mol?% of redox-active catalysts, does not need specialized reaction apparatus, and tolerates a wide variety of functional groups and complex structures such as sugars and natural product derivatives. Importantly, both ground-state and photoexcited redox-active catalysts are effective. Detailed computational and experimental studies suggest a unique reaction pathway where photoexcitation of the trifluoromethoxylating reagent releases the OCF3 radical that is trapped by (hetero)arenes. The resulting cyclohexadienyl radicals are oxidized by redox-active catalysts and deprotonated to form the desired products of trifluoromethoxylation.

Photocatalytic trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes in continuous-flow.

Project description:The first example of photocatalytic trifluoromethoxylation of arenes and heteroarenes under continuous-flow conditions is described. Application of continuous-flow microreactor technology allowed to reduce the residence time up to 16 times in comparison to the batch procedure, while achieving similar or higher yields. In addition, the use of inorganic bases was demonstrated to increase the reaction yield under batch conditions.

Protolytic defluorination of trifluoromethyl-substituted arenes.

Project description:A series of trifluoromethyl-substituted arenes were studied in their reactions with Brønsted superacids. The products from these reactions suggest the formation of reactive electrophiles, such as carbocations, acylium cations or equivalent electrophilic species. As such, Friedel-Crafts-type reactions occur between these species and arene nucleophiles. NMR studies were done, and the results suggest the formation of an acyl group from the trifluoromethyl groups in the superacid.

Nickel(IV)-Catalyzed C-H Trifluoromethylation of (Hetero)arenes.

Project description:This Article describes the development of a stable NiIV complex that mediates C(sp2)-H trifluoromethylation reactions. This reactivity is first demonstrated stoichiometrically and then successfully translated to a NiIV-catalyzed C-H trifluoromethylation of electron-rich arene and heteroarene substrates. Both experimental and computational mechanistic studies support a radical chain pathway involving NiIV, NiIII, and NiII intermediates.

Catalytic activation of a single C-F bond in trifluoromethyl arenes.

Project description:Synthetic methods for the direct transformation of ArCF3 to ArCF2R would enable efficient diversification of trifluoromethyl arenes and would be of great utility in medicinal chemistry. Unfortunately, the development of such methods has been hampered by the fundamental properties of C-F bonds, which are exceptionally strong and become stronger with increased fluorination of the carbon atom. Here, we describe a method for the catalytic reduction of ArCF3 to ArCF2H through a highly selective activation of a single C-F bond. Mechanistic studies reveal separate reaction pathways for the formation of ArCF2H and ArCH3 products and point to the formation of an unexpected intermediate as the source of the unusual selectivity for the mono-reduction.
