Photocatalytic gem-Difluoroolefination Reactions by a Formal C-C Coupling/Defluorination Reaction with Diazoacetates.

ABSTRACT: The photolysis of diazoalkanes to conduct singlet carbene transfer reactions of colored diazoalkanes has recently attracted significant interest in organic synthesis. Herein, we describe a photocatalytic approach that allows the access of triplet carbene intermediates via energy transfer to conduct highly efficient gem-difluoroolefination reactions with α-trifluoromethyl styrenes. The use of a tertiary amines proved pivotal to unlock this unusual reaction pathway and to prevent undesired cyclopropanation pathways. The amine further facilitates the ultimate abstraction of fluoride to yield gem-difluoroolefins (43 examples, up to 88 % yield), which is supported by experimental and theoretical mechanistic studies. We explored this synthesis method with a broad substrate scope, ranging from simple olefins and heterocyclic olefins towards the decoration of pharmaceutically relevant building blocks.

Stereoselective Palladium-Catalyzed Hiyama Cross-Coupling Reaction of Tetrasubstituted <i>gem</i>-Difluoroalkenes.

Project description:We herein describe a diastereoselective Pd(0)-catalyzed Hiyama cross-coupling reaction of gem-difluoroalkenes. The use of organosilicon reagents in this reaction is advantageous over other organometallic reagents by allowing the introduction of a wide range of functional groups, including challenging alkyl groups. Also conveniently, the additive TBAF was not required for (hetero)aryl-substituted difluoroalkenes.

Mapping the reaction coordinates of enzymatic defluorination.

Project description:The carbon-fluorine bond is the strongest covalent bond in organic chemistry, yet fluoroacetate dehalogenases can readily hydrolyze this bond under mild physiological conditions. Elucidating the molecular basis of this rare biocatalytic activity will provide the fundamental chemical insights into how this formidable feat is achieved. Here, we present a series of high-resolution (1.15-1.80 Å) crystal structures of a fluoroacetate dehalogenase, capturing snapshots along the defluorination reaction: the free enzyme, enzyme-fluoroacetate Michaelis complex, glycolyl-enzyme covalent intermediate, and enzyme-product complex. We demonstrate that enzymatic defluorination requires a halide pocket that not only supplies three hydrogen bonds to stabilize the fluoride ion but also is finely tailored for the smaller fluorine halogen atom to establish selectivity toward fluorinated substrates. We have further uncovered dynamics near the active site which may play pivotal roles in enzymatic defluorination. These findings may ultimately lead to the development of novel defluorinases that will enable the biotransformation of more complex fluorinated organic compounds, which in turn will assist the synthesis, detoxification, biodegradation, disposal, recycling, and regulatory strategies for the growing markets of organofluorines across major industrial sectors.

2,2-difluorovinyl benzoates for diverse synthesis of gem-difluoroenol ethers by Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions.

Project description:gem-Difluoroalkene is a bioisostere of carbonyl group for improving bioavailability of drug candidates. Herein we develop structurally diverse 2,2-difluorovinyl benzoates (BzO-DFs) as versatile building blocks for modular synthesis of gem-difluoroenol ethers (44 examples) and gem-difluoroalkenes (2 examples) by Ni-catalyzed cross coupling reactions. Diverse BzO-DFs derivatives bearing sensitive functional groups (e.g., C = C, TMS, strained carbocycles) are readily prepared from their bromodifluoroacetates and bromodifluoroketones precursors using metallic zinc as reductant. With Ni(COD)2 and dppf [1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene] as catalyst, reactions of BzO-DFs with arylboronic acids and arylmagnesium/alkylzinc reagents afforded the desired gem-difluoroenol ethers and gem-difluoroalkenes in good yields. The Ni-catalyzed coupling reactions features highly regioselective C(vinyl)-O(benzoate) bond activation of the BzO-DFs. Results from control experiments and DFT calculations are consistent with a mechanism involving initial oxidative addition of the BzO-DFs by the Ni(0) complex. By virtue of diversity of the BzO-DFs and excellent functional group tolerance, this method is amenable to late-stage functionalization of multifunctionalized bioactive molecules.

Intermolecular Photocatalytic Chemo-, Stereo- and Regioselective Thiol-Yne-Ene Coupling Reaction.

Project description:The first example of an intermolecular thiol-yne-ene coupling reaction is reported for the one-pot construction of C-S and C-C bonds. Thiol-yne-ene coupling opens a new dimension in building molecular complexity to access densely functionalized products. The employment of Eosin Y/DBU/MeOH photocatalytic system suppresses hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and associative reductant upconversion (via C-S three-electron σ-bond formation). Investigation of the reaction mechanism by combining online ESI-UHRMS, EPR spectroscopy, isotope labeling, determination of quantum yield, cyclic voltammetry, Stern-Volmer measurements and computational modeling revealed a unique photoredox cycle with four radical-involving stages. As a result, previously unavailable products of the thiol-yne-ene reaction were obtained in good yields with high selectivity. They can serve as stable precursors for synthesizing synthetically demanding activated 1,3-dienes.

Iron-Catalyzed Reactions of 2-Pyridone Derivatives: 1,6-Addition and Formal Ring Opening/Cross Coupling.

Project description:In the presence of simple iron salts, 2-pyridone derivatives react with Grignard reagents under mild conditions to give the corresponding 1,6-addition products; if the reaction medium is supplemented with an aprotic dipolar cosolvent after the actual addition step, the intermediates primarily formed succumb to ring opening, giving rise to non-thermodynamic Z,E-configured dienoic acid amide derivatives which are difficult to make otherwise. Control experiments as well as the isolation and crystallographic characterization of a (tricarbonyl)iron pyridone complex suggest that the active iron catalyst generated in situ exhibits high affinity to the polarized diene system embedded into the heterocyclic ring system of the substrates, which likely serves as the actual recognition element.

A Conjugated Microporous Polymer for Palladium-Free, Visible Light-Promoted Photocatalytic Stille-Type Coupling Reactions.

Project description:The Stille coupling reaction is a versatile method to mainly form aromatic C-C bonds. However, up to now, the use of palladium catalysts is necessary. Here, a palladium-free and photocatalytic Stille-type coupling reaction of aryl iodides and aryl stannanes catalyzing a conjugated microporous polymer-based phototcatalyst under visible light irradiation at room temperature is reported. The novel coupling reaction mechanism occurs between the photogenerated aryl radical under oxidative destannylation of the aryl stannane, and the electron-activated aryl iodide, resulting into the aromatic C-C bond formation reaction. The visible light-promoted Stille-type coupling reaction using the polymer-based pure organic photocatalyst offers a simple, sustainable, and more economic synthetic pathway toward palladium-free aromatic C-C bond formation.

Photocatalytic Abstraction of Hydrogen Atoms from Water Using Hydroxylated Graphitic Carbon Nitride for Hydrogenative Coupling Reactions.

Project description:Employing pure water, the ultimate green source of hydrogen donor to initiate chemical reactions that involve a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) step is fascinating but challenging due to its large H-O bond dissociation energy (BDEH-O =5.1 eV). Many approaches have been explored to stimulate water for hydrogenative reactions, but the efficiency and productivity still require significant enhancement. Here, we show that the surface hydroxylated graphitic carbon nitride (gCN-OH) only requires 2.25 eV to activate H-O bonds in water, enabling abstraction of hydrogen atoms via dehydrogenation of pure water into hydrogen peroxide under visible light irradiation. The gCN-OH presents a stable catalytic performance for hydrogenative N-N coupling, pinacol-type coupling and dehalogenative C-C coupling, all with high yield and efficiency, even under solar radiation, featuring extensive impacts in using renewable energy for a cleaner process in dye, electronic, and pharmaceutical industries.

Aqueous Platinum(II)-Cage-Based Light-Harvesting System for Photocatalytic Cross-Coupling Hydrogen Evolution Reaction.

Project description:Photosynthesis is a process wherein the chromophores in plants and bacteria absorb light and convert it into chemical energy. To mimic this process, an emissive poly(ethylene glycol)-decorated tetragonal prismatic platinum(II) cage was prepared and used as the donor molecule to construct a light-harvesting system in water. Eosin Y was chosen as the acceptor because of its good spectral overlap with that of the metallacage, which is essential for the preparation of light-harvesting systems. Such a combination showed enhanced catalytic activity in catalyzing the cross-coupling hydrogen evolution reaction, as compared with eosin Y alone. This study offers a pathway for using the output energy from the light-harvesting system to mimic the whole photosynthetic process.

Ultrafine Pd nanoparticles loaded benzothiazole-linked covalent organic framework for efficient photocatalytic C-C cross-coupling reactions.

Project description:We proposed a strategy that a benzothiazole-linked covalent organic framework (TTT-COF) was used as a substrate to prepare metal composite photocatalyst Pd NPs@TTT-COF. Firstly, benzothiazole linked TTT-COF exhibited superior chemical stability and photoresponse. Moreover, a finer particle size (2.01 nm) and more uniform distribution of Pd NPs were observed in Pd NPs@TTT-COF owing to the binding interaction between Pd NPs and S in benzothiazole groups. Pd NPs@TTT-COF exhibited superior efficiency and reusability in photocatalytic C-C cross-coupling reactions. Mechanism study suggested that photogenerated electrons and holes on TTT-COF played important roles in these reactions.
