Migratory insertion of isocyanide into a ketenyl-tungsten bond as key step in cyclization reactions.

ABSTRACT: Treatment of the side-on tungsten alkyne complex of ethinylethyl ether [Tp*W(CO)₂(η²-C,C'-HCCOCH₂CH₃)]⁺ {Tp* = hydridotris(3,4,5-trimethylpyrazolyl)borate} (2a) with n-Bu₄NI afforded the end-on ketenyl complex [Tp*W(CO)₂(κ¹-HCCO)] (4a). This formal 16 ve complex bearing the prototype of a ketenyl ligand is surprisingly stable and converts only under activation by UV light or heat to form a dinuclear complex [Tp*₂W₂(CO)₄(μ-CCH₂)] (6). The ketenyl ligand in complex 4a underwent a metal template controlled cyclization reaction upon addition of isocyanides. The oxametallacycles [Tp*W(CO)₂{κ²-C,O-C(NHXy)C(H)C(Nu)O}] {Nu = OMe (7), OEt (8), N(i-Pr)₂ (9), OH (10), O_1/2 (11)} were formed by coordination of Xy-NC (Xy = 2,6-dimethylphenyl) at 4a and subsequent migratory insertion (MI) into the W-ketenyl bond. The resulting intermediate is susceptible to addition reactions with protic nucleophiles. Compounds 2a-PF₆, 4a/b, and 7-11 were fully characterized including XRD analysis. The cyclization mechanism has been confirmed both experimentally and by DFT calculations. In cyclic voltammetry, complexes 7-9 are characterized by a reversible W(ii)/W(iii) redox process. The dinuclear complex 11 however shows two separated redox events. Based on cyclic voltammetry measurements with different conducting electrolytes and IR spectroelectrochemical (SEC) measurements the W(ii)/W(iii) mixed valent complex 11⁺ is assigned to class II in terms of the Robin-Day classification.

Efficient isocyanide-less isocyanide-based multicomponent reactions.

Project description:Isocyanides are the "Jekyll and Hyde" of organic chemistry allowing for extremely interesting transformations that are not only extremely odorous but also noxious. Therefore, an isocyanide-less isocyanide-based multicomponent reaction (IMCR) has been developed, and this protocol is expected to replace many of the old procedures in the future not only in IMCR but in other areas of organic chemistry as well.

1,2- and 1,1-Migratory Insertion Reactions of Silylated Germylene Adducts.

Project description:The reactions of the PMe3 adduct of the silylated germylene [(Me3Si)3Si]2Ge: with GeCl2·dioxane were found to yield 1,1-migratory insertion products of GeCl2 into one or two Ge-Si bonds. In a related reaction, a germylene was inserted with tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl and vinyl substituents into a Ge-Cl bond of GeCl2. This was followed by intramolecular trimethylsilyl chloride elimination to another cyclic germylene PMe3 adduct. The reaction of the GeCl2 mono-insertion product (Me3Si)3SiGe:GeCl2Si(SiMe3)3 with Me3SiC?CH gave a mixture of alkyne mono- and diinsertion products. While the reaction of a divinylgermylene with GeCl2·dioxane only results in the exchange of the dioxane of GeCl2 against the divinylgermylene as base, the reaction of [(Me3Si)3Si]2Ge: with one GeCl2·dioxane and three phenylacetylenes gives a trivinylated germane with a chlorogermylene attached to one of the vinyl units.

Neutral and Cationic Alkyl Tantalum Imido Complexes: Synthesis and Migratory Insertion Reactions.

Project description:The synthesis and reactivity of dibenzyl cationic tantalum imido complexes is described. The trialkyl tantalum imido compounds Bn(3)Ta=NCMe(3) (1) and Np(3)Ta=NCMe(3) (2) were synthesized as starting materials for the study of dialkyl cationic tantalum imido complexes. Compound 1 undergoes insertion reactions with diisopropylcarbodiimide and 2,6-dimethylphenylisocyanide to give (bisamidinate)imido complex 5 and (bisimino-acyl)imido complex 6, respectively. Treatment of compound 1 with B(C(6)F(5))(3) gives the zwitterionic tantalum complex [Bn(2)Ta=NCMe(3)][BnB(C(6)F(5))(3)] (7) which is stabilized by eta(6)-coordination of the benzyl triaryl borate anion. Coordination of the aryl anion can be displaced by three equivalents of pyridine to give the Lewis base complex 8. Treatment of compound 1 with [Ph(3)C][B(C(6)F(5))(4)] gives the cationic tantalum imido complex [Bn(2)Ta=NCMe(3)][B(C(6)F(5))(4)] (3). This salt forms insoluble aggregates unless trapped by THF coordination or an insertion reaction with an alkyne or an alkene. Cation 3 undergoes migratory insertion reactions with diphenylacetylene, phenylacetylene, norbornene, and cis-cyclooctene to give the corresponding alkenyl or modified alkyl imido complexes. The characterization of these products and the significance of these insertion reactions with respect to Ziegler-Natta polymerizations and hydroamination reactions are described.

Palladium- and Nickel-Catalyzed Carbon-Carbon Bond Insertion Reactions with Alkylidenesilacyclopropanes.

Project description:Palladium and nickel catalysts promoted highly selective carbon-carbon bond insertion reactions with di-tert-butyl-alkylidenesilacyclopropanes. Pd(PPh(3))(4) was demonstrated to be the optimal catalyst, allowing for a variety of carbon-carbon pi-bond insertion reactions. Depending on the nature of the carbon-carbon pi bond, the insertion reaction proceeded with either direct insertion into the carbon(sp(2))-silicon bond or with allylic transposition. Ring-substituted alkylidenesilacyclopropanes required a nickel catalyst to afford insertion products. Using Ni(cod)(2) as the carbon-carbon bond insertion catalyst, new double alkyne insertion products and alkene isomerization products were observed.

Luminescent tungsten(vi) complexes as photocatalysts for light-driven C-C and C-B bond formation reactions.

Project description:The realization of photocatalysis for practical synthetic application hinges on the development of inexpensive photocatalysts which can be prepared on a large scale. Herein an air-stable, visible-light-absorbing photoluminescent tungsten(vi) complex which can be conveniently prepared at the gram-scale is described. This complex could catalyse photochemical organic transformation reactions including borylation of aryl halides, such as aryl chloride, reductive coupling of benzyl bromides for C-C bond formation, reductive coupling of phenacyl bromides, and decarboxylative coupling of redox-active esters of alkyl carboxylic acid with high product yields and broad functional group tolerance.

Isocyanide-Based Multicomponent Reactions of Free Phenylboronic Acids.

Project description:Boronic acids are amongst the most useful synthetic intermediates, frequently used by modern drug design. However, their access and fast synthesis of libraries are often problematic. We present a methodology on the synthesis of drug-like scaffolds via IMCRs with unprotected phenylboronic acids. To demonstrate an application of our approach, we also performed one-pot Suzuki couplings on the primary MCR scaffolds. Moreover, we performed a thorough data-mining of the Cambridge Structural Database, revealing interesting geometrical features.

The halogen bond with isocyano carbon reduces isocyanide odor.

Project description:Predominantly, carbon atoms of various species function as acceptors of noncovalent interactions when they are part of a π-system. Here, we report on the discovery of a halogen bond involving the isocyano carbon lone pair. The co-crystallization or mechanochemical liquid-assisted grinding of model mesityl isocyanide with four iodoperfluorobenezenes leads to a series of halogen-bonded adducts with isocyanides. The obtained adducts were characterized by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, solid-state IR and 13C NMR spectroscopies, and also by thermogravimetric analysis. The formation of the halogen bond with the isocyano group leads to a strong reduction of the isocyanide odor (3- to 46-fold gas phase concentration decrease). This manipulation makes isocyanides more suitable for laboratory storage and usage while preserving their reactivity, which is found to be similar between the adducts and the parent isocyanide in some common transformations, such as ligation to metal centers and the multi-component Ugi reaction.

One-step synthesis of imidazoles from Asmic (anisylsulfanylmethyl isocyanide).

Project description:Substituted imidazoles are readily prepared by condensing the versatile isocyanide Asmic, anisylsulfanylmethylisocyanide, with nitrogenous π-electrophiles. Deprotonating Asmic with lithium hexamethyldisilazide effectively generates a potent nucleophile that efficiently intercepts nitrile and imine electrophiles to afford imidazoles. In situ cyclization to the imidazole is promoted by the conjugate acid, hexamethyldisilazane, which facilitates the requisite series of proton transfers. The rapid formation of imidazoles and the interchange of the anisylsulfanyl for hydrogen with Raney nickel make the method a valuable route to mono- and disubstituted imidazoles.

Synthesis of Quinazolin-4-ones by Copper-Catalyzed Isocyanide Insertion.

Project description:Herein, we report a novel copper-catalyzed imidoylative cross-coupling/cyclocondensation reaction between 2-isocyanobenzoates and amines efficiently producing quinazolin-4-ones. The reaction utilizes Cu(II) acetate as an environmentally benign catalyst in combination with a mild base and proceeds well in anisole, a recommended, sustainable solvent. Additionally, the reaction does not require dry conditions or inert atmospheres for optimal performance. The scope of this isocyanide insertion reaction is rather broad, tolerating various functionalized isocyanobenzoates and a range of substituted amines, although the use of aromatic amines as nucleophiles requires microwave heating.
