Rapid Evaluation of the Mechanism of Buchwald–Hartwig Amination and Aldol Reactions Using Intramolecular 13C Kinetic Isotope Effects

ABSTRACT: A practical approach is introduced for the rapid determination of 13C kinetic isotope effects that utilizes a “designed” reactant with two identical reaction sites. The mechanism of the Buchwald–Hartwig amination of tert-butylbromobenzene with primary and secondary amines is investigated under synthetically relevant catalytic conditions using traditional intermolecular 13C NMR methodology at natural abundance. Switching to 1,4-dibromobenzene, a symmetric bromoarene as the designed reactant, the same experimental 13C KIEs are determined using an intramolecular KIE approach. This rapid methodology for KIE determination requires substantially less material and time compared to traditional approaches. Details of the Buchwald–Hartwig amination mechanism are investigated under varying synthetic conditions, namely a variety of halides and bases. The enantioselectivity-determining step of the l-proline catalyzed aldol reaction is also evaluated using this approach. We expect this mechanistic methodology to gain traction among synthetic chemists as a practical technique to rapidly obtain high-resolution information regarding the transition structure of synthetically relevant reactions under catalytic conditions.

A new nanomagnetic Pd-Co bimetallic alloy as catalyst in the Mizoroki-Heck and Buchwald-Hartwig amination reactions in aqueous media.

Project description:A Pd-Co bimetallic alloy encapsulated in melamine-based dendrimer supported on magnetic nanoparticles denoted as γ-Fe2O3@MBD/Pd-Co was synthesized by a facile co-complexation-reduction method and characterized sufficiently. The catalytic evaluation of γ-Fe2O3@MBD/Pd-Co showed promising results in the Mizoroki-Heck and Buchwald-Hartwig amination reactions of various iodo-, bromo- and challenging chloroarenes in aqueous media. The synergetic cooperative effect of both Pd and Co and dispersion of the catalyst in water due to the encapsulation of γ-Fe2O3 by melamine-based dendrimer lead to high catalytic performance compared with the monometallic counterparts. The dispersion of the magnetic catalyst also facilitates the recovery and reuse of the catalyst by ten consecutive extraction and final magnetic isolation with no loss of catalytic activity, keeping its structure unaltered.

Lithium sensors based on photophysical changes of 1-aza-12-crown-4 naphthalene derivatives synthesized <i>via</i> Buchwald-Hartwig amination.

Project description:Lithium detection is of great significance in many applications. Lithium-sensing compounds with high selectivity are scarce and, if any, complicated to synthesize. We herein report a novel yet simple compound that can detect lithium ions in an organic solvent through changes in absorbance and fluorescence. Naphthalene functionalized with 1-aza-12-crown-4 (1) was synthesized via one step from commercially available 1-bromonaphthalene through Buchwald-Hartwig amination. In order to obtain a structure-property relationship, we also synthesized two other compounds that are structurally similar to 1, wherein the compounds 2 and 3 include an imide moiety (an electron acceptor) and do not include a 1-aza-12-crown-4 unit, respectively. Upon the addition of lithium ions, compound 1 displayed a clear isosbestic point in the absorption spectra and a new peak in the fluorescence spectra, whereas the compounds 2 and 3 indicated miniscule and no spectroscopic changes, respectively. 1H NMR titration studies and the calculated optimized geometry from density functional theory (DFT) indicated the lithium binding on the aza-crown. The calculated limit of detection (LOD) was 21 μM. The lithium detection with 1 is selective among other alkali metals (Na+, K+, and Cs+). DFT calculation indicated that the lone pair electrons in the nitrogen atom of 1 is delocalized yet available to bind lithium, whereas the nitrogen lone pair electrons of 2 showed significant intramolecular charge transfer to the imide acceptor, resulting in a high dipole moment, and thus were unavailable to bind lithium. This work elucidates the key design parameters for future lithium sensors.

Buchwald-Hartwig Amination of Aryl Halides with Heterocyclic Amines in the Synthesis of Highly Fluorescent Benzodifuran-Based Star-Shaped Organic Semiconductors.

Project description:The study of palladium-catalyzed amination of bromobenzene with aromatic and heterocyclic amines, widely used in the synthesis of organic semiconductors, was performed. The best conditions for the coupling of aryl bromides with carbazole, diphenylamine, phenoxazine, phenothiazine, 9,9-dimethyl-9,10-dihydroacridine, and their derivatives have been developed. Based on the results, nine new star-shaped organic semiconductors, exhibiting up to 100% fluorescent quantum yield in the 400-550 nm range, have been synthesized in good yields. The TDDFT calculations of the absorption spectra revealed a good correlation with experimental results and slight solvatochromic effects with a change in the polarity of the solvent.

Experimental evidence for heavy-atom tunneling in the ring-opening of cyclopropylcarbinyl radical from intramolecular 12C/13C kinetic isotope effects.

Project description:The intramolecular (13)C kinetic isotope effects for the ring-opening of cyclopropylcarbinyl radical were determined over a broad temperature range. The observed isotope effects are unprecedentedly large, ranging from 1.062 at 80 degrees C to 1.163 at -100 degrees C. Semiclassical calculations employing canonical variational transition-state theory drastically underpredict the observed isotope effects, but the predicted isotope effects including tunneling by a small-curvature tunneling model match well with experiment. These results and a curvature in the Arrhenius plot of the isotope effects support the recently predicted importance of heavy-atom tunneling in cyclopropylcarbinyl ring-opening.

GPhos Ligand Enables Production of Chiral N-Arylamines in a Telescoped Transaminase-Buchwald-Hartwig Amination Cascade in the Presence of Excess Amine Donor.

Project description:The combination of biocatalysis and chemocatalysis can be more powerful than either technique alone. However, combining the two is challenging due to typically very different reaction conditions. Herein, chiral N-aryl amines, key features of many active pharmaceutical ingredients, are accessed in excellent enantioselectivity (typically>99.5 % ee) by combining transaminases with the Buchwald-Hartwig amination. By employing a bi-phasic buffer-toluene system as well as the ligand GPhos, the telescoped cascade proceeded with up to 89 % overall conversion in the presence of excess alanine. No coupling to alanine was observed.

What can reaction databases teach us about Buchwald-Hartwig cross-couplings?

Project description:Despite the widespread and increasing usage of Pd-catalyzed C-N cross couplings, finding good conditions for these reactions can be challenging. Practitioners mostly rely on few methodology studies or anecdotal experience. This is surprising, since the advent of data-driven experimentation and the large amount of knowledge in databases allow for data-driven insight. In this work, we address this by analyzing more than 62 000 Buchwald-Hartwig couplings gathered from CAS, Reaxys and the USPTO. Our meta-analysis of the reaction performance generates data-driven cheatsheets for reaction condition recommendation. It also provides an interactive tool to find rarer ligands with optimal performance regarding user-selected substrate properties. With this we give practitioners promising starting points. Furthermore, we study bias and diversity in the literature and summarize the current state of the reaction data, including its pitfalls. Hence, this work will also be useful for future data-driven developments such as the optimization of reaction conditions via machine learning.

Concatenating Suzuki Arylation and Buchwald-Hartwig Amination by A Sequentially Pd-Catalyzed One-Pot Process-Consecutive Three-Component Synthesis of C,N-Diarylated Heterocycles.

Project description:The concatenation of Suzuki coupling and Buchwald-Hartwig amination in a consecutive multicomponent reaction opens a concise, modular and efficient one-pot approach to diversely functionalized heterocycles, as exemplified for 3,10-diaryl 10H-phenothiazines, 3,9-diaryl 9H-carbazoles, and 1,5-diaryl 1H-indoles, in high yields starting from simple staring materials. Moreover, this one-pot reaction is a sequentially palladium-catalyzed process that does not require additional catalyst loading after the first coupling step.

Ligand Effects of BrettPhos and RuPhos on Rate-Limiting Steps in Buchwald-Hartwig Amination Reaction Due to the Modulation of Steric Hindrance and Electronic Structure.

Project description:The differences in catalytic activity between two catalyst ligands of Buchwald-Hartwig amination reaction, BrettPhos versus RuPhos, were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The reaction process consists of three consecutive steps: (1) oxidative addition, (2) deprotonation, and (3) reductive elimination. Among them, the rate-limiting step of Pd-BrettPhos catalytic system is oxidative addition but that of Pd-RuPhos catalytic system is reductive elimination due to their differences in steric hindrance and electronic structure. It was also revealed that amines with large-size substituents or halides with electron-withdrawing groups would reduce the activation energy barriers of the reactions. The insights gained from the calculations of the Buchwald-Hartwig amination reaction would be helpful for the rational designing of new catalysts and reactions.

Computation of kinetic isotope effects for enzymatic reactions.

Project description:We describe a computational approach, incorporating quantum mechanics into enzyme kinetics modeling with a special emphasis on computation of kinetic isotope effects. Two aspects are highlighted: (1) the potential energy surface is represented by a combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (QM/MM) potential in which the bond forming and breaking processes are modeled by electronic structure theory, and (2) a free energy perturbation method in path integral simulation is used to determine both kinetic isotope effects (KIEs). In this approach, which is called the PI-FEP/UM method, a light (heavy) isotope is mutated into a heavy (light) counterpart in centroid path integral simulations. The method is illustrated in the study of primary and secondary KIEs in two enzyme systems. In the case of nitroalkane oxidase, the enzymatic reaction exhibits enhanced quantum tunneling over that of the uncatalyzed process in water. In the dopa delarboxylase reaction, there appears to be distinguishable primary carbon-13 and secondary deuterium KIEs when the internal proton tautomerism is in the N-protonated or in the O-protonated positions. These examples show that the incorporation of quantum mechanical effects in enzyme kinetics modeling offers an opportunity to accurately and reliably model the mechanisms and free energies of enzymatic reactions.

Sensitive and Accurate 13C Kinetic Isotope Effect Measurements Enabled by Polarization Transfer.

Project description:Polarization transfer is demonstrated as a sensitive technique for the measurement of isotopic fractionation of protonated carbons at natural abundance. This method allows kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) to be determined with substantially less material or shorter acquisition time compared with traditional experiments. Computations quantitatively reproduce the KIEs in a Diels-Alder reaction and a catalytic glycosylation. The glycosylation is shown to occur by an effectively concerted mechanism.
