Blue Light-Promoted Cross-Coupling of α-Diazo Esters with Isocyanides: Synthesis of Ester-Functionalized Ketenimines.

ABSTRACT: A metal-free scalable synthesis of functionalized ketenimines from alkyl α-(aryl/heteroaryl)-α-diazoacetates and alkyl isocyanides induced by blue light irradiation has been developed. The reaction proceeds at room temperature without any photocatalyst and provides ketenimines in moderate to good yields. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the experimental study showed that aryl(alkoxycarbonyl)carbenes in both singlet and triplet states can react with isocyanides but only the reaction of the former leads to the smooth formation of ketenimines. The obtained ketenimines were used for the synthesis of functionalized amidines under mild metal-free conditions.

Decarboxylative Alkyl Coupling Promoted by NADH and Blue Light.

Project description:Photoexcited dihydronicotinamides like NADH and analogues have been found to generate alkyl radicals upon reductive decarboxylation of redox-active esters without auxiliary photocatalysts. This principle allowed aliphatic photocoupling between redox-active carboxylate derivatives and electron-poor olefins, displaying surprising water and air-tolerance and unusually high coupling rates in dilute conditions. The orthogonality of the reaction in the presence of other carboxylic acids and its utility in the functionalization of DNA is presented, notably using visible light in combination with NADH, the ubiquitous reductant of life.

Visible Light-Promoted Oxidative Cross-Coupling of Alcohols to Esters.

Project description:Ester is one of the most significant functional groups in organic chemistry and is enclosed in several valued molecules. Usually, esters are prepared through the acid-catalyzed esterification reaction of carboxylic acids with alcohols, transesterification of esters with alcohols, or via activation of carboxylic acids followed by the addition of alcohols. However, these procedures typically imply the excess use of reactants and harsh reaction conditions. Visible light-mediated photoreactions have been disclosed to display a safe, sustainable, and accessible alternative to traditional methods, and to lead new reactivity modes in organic procedures. In this context, we propose a transition metal-based and organic-based photocatalyst-free synthesis of esters from alcohols induced by visible light. The methodology can be carried out using sunlight or artificial visible light as a solar simulator or a blue LED source.

Blue light-promoted photolysis of aryldiazoacetates.

Project description:Aryldiazoacetates can undergo photolysis under blue light irradiation (460-490 nm) at room temperature and under air in the presence of numerous trapping agents, such as styrene, carboxylic acids, amines, alkanes and arenes, thus providing a straighforward and general platform for their mild functionalization.

Z-Selective iridium-catalyzed cross-coupling of allylic carbonates and ?-diazo esters.

Project description:A well-defined Ir-allyl complex catalyzes the Z-selective cross-coupling of allyl carbonates with ?-aryl diazo esters. The process overrides the large thermodynamic preference for E-products typically observed in metal-mediated coupling reactions to enable the synthesis of Z,E-dieneoates in good yield with selectivities consistently approaching or greater than 90?:?10. This transformation represents the first productive merger of Ir-carbene and Ir-allyl species, which are commonly encountered intermediates in allylation and cyclopropanation/E-H insertion catalysis. Potentially reactive functional groups (aryl halides, ketones, nitriles, olefins, amines) are tolerated owing to the mildness of reaction conditions. Kinetic analysis of the reaction suggests oxidative addition of the allyl carbonate to an Ir-species is rate-determining. Mechanistic studies uncovered a pathway for catalyst activation mediated by NEt3.

Porous Organic Polymer Synthesized by Green Diazo-Coupling Reaction for Adsorptive Removal of Methylene Blue.

Project description:A porous organic polymer (marked as DT-POP), which contains abundant free phenolic hydroxyl groups, is synthesized by the well-known green azo-coupling reaction in water, characterized, and utilized as an effective adsorbent for the elimination of methylene blue (MB) from water solutions. The presence of permanent mesopores, abundant active functional groups, and π-electron enrichment ascribed to phenyl rings make DT-POP an efficient adsorbent for MB due to strong hydrogen bonding, π-π, and electrostatic interactions with the cationic dye MB. DT-POP with high stability and high adsorption capacity can be reused many times and thus shows high applicability in pollutant disposal.

Fluorogenic Strain-Promoted Alkyne-Diazo Cycloadditions.

Project description:Fluorogenic reactions, in which non- or weakly fluorescent reagents produce highly fluorescent products, are attractive for detecting a broad range of compounds in the fields of bioconjugation and material sciences. Herein, we report that a dibenzocyclooctyne derivative modified with a cyclopropenone moiety (Fl-DIBO) can undergo fast strain-promoted cycloaddition reactions under catalyst-free conditions with azides, nitrones, nitrile oxides, as well as mono- and disubstituted diazo-derivatives. Although the reaction with nitrile oxides, nitrones, and disubstituted diazo compounds gave cycloadducts with low quantum yield, monosubstituted diazo reagents produced 1H-pyrazole derivatives that exhibited an approximately 160-fold fluorescence enhancement over Fl-DIBO combined with a greater than 10,000-fold increase in brightness. Concluding from quantum chemical calculations, fluorescence quenching of 3H-pyrazoles, which are formed by reaction with disubstituted diazo-derivatives, is likely due to the presence of energetically low-lying (n,π*) states. The fluorogenic probe Fl-DIBO was successfully employed for the labeling of diazo-tagged proteins without detectable background signal. Diazo-derivatives are emerging as attractive reporters for the labeling of biomolecules, and the studies presented herein demonstrate that Fl-DIBO can be employed for visualizing such biomolecules without the need for probe washout.

Copper(II)-Promoted Cyclization/Difunctionalization of Allenols and Allenylsulfonamides: Synthesis of Heterocycle-Functionalized Vinyl Carboxylate Esters.

Project description:A unique method to affect intramolecular aminooxygenation and dioxygenation of allenols and allenylsulfonamides is described. These operationally simple reactions occur under neutral or basic conditions where copper(II) carboxylates serve as reaction promoter, oxidant, and carboxylate source. Moderate to high yields of heterocycle-functionalized vinyl carboxylate esters are formed with moderate to high levels of diastereoselectivity. Such vinyl carboxylate esters could serve as precursors to α-amino and α-oxy ketones and derivatives thereof.

Stereoselective Bioreduction of α-diazo-β-keto Esters.

Project description:Diazo compounds are versatile reagents in chemical synthesis and biology due to the tunable reactivity of the diazo functionality and its compatibility with living systems. Much effort has been made in recent years to explore their accessibility and synthetic potential; however, their preparation through stereoselective enzymatic asymmetric synthesis has been scarcely reported in the literature. Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs, also called ketoreductases, KREDs) are powerful redox enzymes able to reduce carbonyl compounds in a highly stereoselective manner. Herein, we have developed the synthesis and subsequent bioreduction of nine α-diazo-β-keto esters to give optically active α-diazo-β-hydroxy esters with potential applications as chiral building blocks in chemical synthesis. Therefore, the syntheses of prochiral α-diazo-β-keto esters bearing different substitution patterns at the adjacent position of the ketone group (N3CH2, ClCH2, BrCH2, CH3OCH2, NCSCH2, CH3, and Ph) and in the alkoxy portion of the ester functionality (Me, Et, and Bn), were carried out through the diazo transfer reaction to the corresponding β-keto esters in good to excellent yields (81-96%). After performing the chemical reduction of α-diazo-β-keto esters with sodium borohydride and developing robust analytical conditions to monitor the biotransformations, their bioreductions were exhaustively studied using in-house made Escherichia coli overexpressed and commercially available KREDs. Remarkably, the corresponding α-diazo-β-hydroxy esters were obtained in moderate to excellent conversions (60 to >99%) and high selectivities (85 to >99% ee) after 24 h at 30 °C. The best biotransformations in terms of conversion and enantiomeric excess were successfully scaled up to give the expected chiral alcohols with almost the same activity and selectivity values observed in the enzyme screening experiments.

Visible-Light-Promoted C-S Cross-Coupling via Intermolecular Charge Transfer.

Project description:Disclosed is a mild, scalable, visible-light-promoted cross-coupling reaction between thiols and aryl halides for the construction of C-S bonds in the absence of both transition metal and photoredox catalysts. The scope of aryl halides and thiol partners includes over 60 examples and therefore provides an entry point into various aryl thioether building blocks of pharmaceutical interest. Furthermore, to demonstrate its utility, this C-S coupling protocol was applied in drug synthesis and late-stage modifications of active pharmaceutical ingredients. UV-vis spectroscopy and time-dependent density functional theory calculations suggest that visible-light-promoted intermolecular charge transfer within the thiolate-aryl halide electron donor-acceptor complex permits the reactivity in the absence of catalyst.
