- Solid Acid-Catalyzed Dehydration of Pinacol Derivatives in Ionic Liquid: Simple and Efficient Access to Branched 1,3-Dienes
-
The selective dehydration of pinacol derivatives to branched 1,3-dienes is extremely challenging because of the predominance of pinacol rearrangement. Herein, we successfully achieve this goal by employing a recyclable solid acid/ionic liquid catalyst system. The dehydration of alkyl- and cycloalkyl-derived diols in an Amberlyst-15/[Emim]Cl system afforded the corresponding 1,3-dienes in good yields, while a Nafion/[Emim]Cl system was demonstrated to be a better catalyst system for the dehydration of aryl-substituted substrates. Our protocol features straightforward and simple access to branched 1,3-dienes, high chemoselectivity, a recyclable catalyst system, a facile separation of dienes just by decantation, and a broad substrate scope.

- Pseudomerohedrally twinned crystal structure of 2,3-diphenylbuta-1,3-diene
-
The title compound, C16H14, is twinned by reticular pseudomerohedry of twin index 2. The primitive monoclinic cell of the single crystal can be transformed into a B-centred pseudoorthorhombic supercell with a fourfold volume. The two-fold twin operation about the reciprocal a* axis of the primitive monoclinic cell is co-directional with the approximate C 2 axis of the molecule and a symmetry element of the orthorhombic supercell. A tentative twin domain model is proposed.

- On the structure of cross-conjugated 2,3-diphenylbutadiene
-
The structure of the cross-conjugated compound 2,3-diphenylbutadiene was investigated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and computational methods. In the crystal structure the central butadiene fragment adopts an s-gauche geometry [-55.6(2)° torsion angle φ around the essential single bond], whereas the styrene moieties are close to planarity. MP2/6-311G* calculations show that the s-gauche conformation represents the global minimum along the φ coordinate, but also revealed the existence of an s-trans local minimum. While the crystal structure seems to reflect dominance of styrene-like conjugation, the MP2/6-311G* calculations indicate that conjugation in both the styrene and butadiene π-systems is important. An NBO orbital deletion study shows that the structure is primarily determined by (hyper)conjugation and that steric effects play a minor role. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2007.

- Reductive Alkylation of Alkenyl Acetates with Alkyl Bromides by Nickel Catalysis
-
Catalytic alkylation of stable alkenyl C?O electrophiles is synthetically appealing, but studies to date have typically focused on the reactions with alkyl Grignard reagents. We report herein a cross-electrophile reaction of alkenyl acetates with alkyl bromides. This work has enabled a new method for the synthesis of aliphatic alkenes from alkenyl acetates to be established that can be used to add more structural complexity and molecular diversity with enhanced functionality tolerance. The method allows for a gram-scale reaction and modification of biologically active molecules, and it affords access to useful building blocks. Preliminary mechanistic studies reveal that the NiI species plays an essential role for the success of the coupling of these two reactivity-mismatched electrophiles.

- Iron-Catalyzed Vinylzincation of Terminal Alkynes
-
Organozinc reagents are among the most commonly used organometallic reagents in modern synthetic chemistry, and multifunctionalized organozinc reagents can be synthesized from structurally simple, readily available ones by means of alkyne carbozincation. However, this method suffers from poor tolerance for terminal alkynes, and transformation of the newly introduced organic groups is difficult, which limits its applications. Herein, we report a method for vinylzincation of terminal alkynes catalyzed by newly developed iron catalysts bearing 1,10-phenanthroline-imine ligands. This method provides efficient access to novel organozinc reagents with a diverse array of structures and functional groups from readily available vinylzinc reagents and terminal alkynes. The method features excellent functional group tolerance (tolerated functional groups include amino, amide, cyano, ester, hydroxyl, sulfonyl, acetal, phosphono, pyridyl), a good substrate scope (suitable terminal alkynes include aryl, alkenyl, and alkyl acetylenes bearing various functional groups), and high chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, and stereoselectivity. The method could significantly improve the synthetic efficiency of various important bioactive molecules, including vitamin A. Mechanistic studies indicate that the new iron-1,10-phenanthroline-imine catalysts developed in this study have an extremely crowded reaction pocket, which promotes efficient transfer of the vinyl group to the alkynes, disfavors substitution reactions between the zinc reagent and the terminal C–H bond of the alkynes, and prevents the further reactions of the products. Our findings show that iron catalysts can be superior to other metal catalysts in terms of activity, chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, and stereoselectivity when suitable ligands are used.

- Synthesis of Alkenylboronates from N-Tosylhydrazones through Palladium-Catalyzed Carbene Migratory Insertion
-
The palladium-catalyzed oxidative borylation reaction of N-tosylhydrazones has been developed. The reaction features mild conditions, broad substrate scope, and good functional group tolerance. It thus represents a highly efficient and practical method for the synthesis of di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted alkenylboronates from readily available N-tosylhydrazones. One-pot Suzuki coupling and other transformations highlight the synthetic utility of the approach. DFT calculations have revealed that palladium-carbene formation and subsequent boryl migratory insertion are the key steps in the catalytic cycle. The high stereoselectivity observed in the formation of trisubstituted alkenylboronates has been explained by distortion-interaction analysis and NBO analysis.

A fluoroalkenylation of boronic acids with fluoroalkyl alkenes has been developed. The Pd-catalyzed oxidative Heck coupling reaction proceeds under an oxygen atmosphere at room temperature, in the absence of a base and/or a ligand, showing excellent practicality of the process. This simple transformation is highly stereoselective to provide only E-isomers. In addition to the general approach using alkenes with functionalized fluoroalkyl reagents, this method, by transferring an aromatic system to the electron-deficient fluoroalkyl alkene, provides an efficient alternative method to yield valuable organofluorines.

- Feasibility of room temperature reduction of aromatic carbonyl and nitro compounds by Zn/dil. HCl-Et2O system: An experimental and DFT study
-
This experimental study is about the feasibility of the room temperature reduction of the ether soluble aromatic carbonyl/nitro compounds by atomic hydrogen. The atomic hydrogen is produced by the novel Zn/dil. HCl-Et2O reducing system (wherein dil. HCl is slowly added to the ethereal solution of Zn and substrate).This study resulted in single or mixture of anticipated reduced products in different yields. The DFT study with B3LYP/6.311g ++ (d,p) basis set revealed that the stability of the first formed free radical (energy factor) and the homo nuclear nature of the carbonyl and nitro group (charge factor) decide the yield. It is also found that the presence of –M group at o- or p- position to the carbonyl/nitro group results in the favourable modification of above-mentioned factors. The above-mentioned factors also explain the preferential reduction of nitro group when it is present along with carbonyl group. The free radical mechanism was confirmed by the formation of pinacol coupled product in one instance. In one of the reduction reactions, an unreported compound viz. the dimer of o-amino benzaldehyde was obtained in good yield.

- Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of hydrazones: Regioselective synthesis of highly branched dienes
-
The regioselective formation of highly branched dienes is a challenging task. Design and exploration of alternative working models to achieve such a regioselectivity to accomplish highly branched dienes is considered to be a historical advancement of Heck reaction to construct branched dienes. On the basis of the utility of carbene transfer reactions, in the reaction of hydrazones with Pd(II) under oxidative conditions, we envisioned obtaining a Pd-bis-carbene complex with α-hydrogens, which can lead to branched dienes. Herein, we report a novel Pd-catalyzed selective coupling reaction of hydrazones in the presence of t-BuOLi and benzoquinone to form the corresponding branched dienes. The utility of the Pd catalyst for the cross-coupling reactions for synthesizing branched conjugated dienes is rare. The reaction is very versatile and compatible with a variety of functional groups and is useful in synthesizing heterocyclic molecules. We anticipate that this Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction will open new avenues for synthesizing useful compounds.

Sulfones 7 are readily prepared in high yields (64-97%) from commercially available 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)thiophenol through an alkylation/oxidation two-step sequence. The stability of metalated BTFP sulfones has been studied and compared with heteroaryl benzothiazol-2-yl (BT), 1-phenyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl (PT), and 1-tert-butyl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl (TBT) sulfones 9-11 under different reaction conditions. The Julia-Kocienski olefination between alkyl BTFP sulfones 7 and a wide variety of aldehydes affords the corresponding 1,2-disubstituted alkenes and dienes in good yields and stereoselectivities. This one-pot protocol can be performed using KOH at room temperature or the phosphazene bases P2-Et and P4-t-Bu at -78 °C or rt and has been successfully used in a high-yielding and stereoselective synthesis of various methoxylated stilbenes such as trimethylated resveratrol. These new reaction conditions for the Julia-Kocienski olefination reaction have been also studied with BT, PT, and TBT sulfones, giving poorer results. Methylenation of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, ketones, and 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds is carried out through the modified Julia olefination using BTFP methyl sulfone 7d to give terminal alkenes and dienes. Mechanistic studies of the olefination reaction between benzyl BTFP sulfone 7a and aromatic aldehydes performed by KOH-induced Smiles rearrangement of stereodefined syn- and anit-β-hydroxyalkyl BTFP sulfones indicate that the stereocontrol of the reaction is determined in the elimination step. 2005 American Chemical Society.

- Palladium-catalyzed inter- and intramolecular coupling reactions of aryl and vinyl halides mediated by indium
-
(Chemical Equation Presented) Treatment of aryl and vinyl halides with 50 mol % of 100 mesh indium, 2.5 mol % of Pd-C, and 1.5 equiv of LiCl under mild conditions (DMF, 100°C, 1-3 h) could produce coupling products efficiently in good to excellent yields in which the Csp2-Csp2 bond was formed. This reagent worked equally well with both intermolecular and intramolecular coupling reactions, producing a variety of biaryls, 1,3-dienes, and cyclic compounds.

- Synthesis of 1,1,4,4-tetrabromo-2-butenes and related compounds via desilylation-bromination of silylated 1,3-butadiene derivatives
-
The combination of zirconocene-mediated coupling of silylated alkynes with a protonation-desilylation or bromination-desilylation process afforded otherwise unavailable butadiene derivatives. When (E,E)-2,3-dialkyl-1,4- bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-butadienes were treated with 3 equiv of Br2 in CH2Cl2, (E)-2,3-dialkyl-1,1,4,4-tetrabromo-2-butenes were obtained in excellent yields with perfect stereoselectivity.

- The synthesis of stable 1,3,4-triphenylphospholes
-
The first syntheses of 1,3,4-triphenylphosphole, 2-bromo-l,3,4-phenylphosphole and 2,5-dibromo-l,3,4-triphenylphosphole are described. These phospholes, unlike most of the known derivatives, are difficult to oxidise and they and their corresponding oxides show little tendency to dimerise. The NBS mediated bromination of 1,3,4-triphenyl2,5-dihydrophosphole oxide led to the desired precursors of the corresponding phospholes and in one case unexpectedly yielded a phosphole oxide directly. Some reactions including the formation of organolithium reagents and their derivatisation are reported. McMurry reactions of derived formylphospholes to give coupled products are described and some copper mediated reactions are also discussed. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2000.

- Pd(0)-catalysed formation of diarylated dienes from propargyl carbonates and organoboron and organotin(IV) reagents
-
The 1,1-dimethylbutyne-1,4-diol derivative 1 reacts with 2 mol. equiv. of organoboron (NaBPh4 arylboronic acids) and organotin(IV) reagents to give 1,1-dimethyl-2,3-disubstituted butadienes in good yield via allenylpalladium(II) and vinylidene-π-allylpalladium(II) intermediates. Unsubstituted esters 6 and butyne dicarbonate 7 lead to symmetrical dienes 8.

- The Reaction of Methylidenetriphenylphosphorane with Aromatic and Heterocyclic 1,2-Diketones.
-
Treatment of both 2,2,6-trimethylthiochromane-3,4-dione (1a) and 3,3,6,8-tetramethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-1,2-dione (1b) with one equivalent of Ph3P=CH2 affords a 1,2-methylidene ketone (3).Reaction with a further mole of the ylide gives a 1,2-diphenylphosphinoylethyl ketone (7) by a Michael addition and elimination of benzene.When the diketones (1a and 1b) are treated directly with two moles of the ylide, ring contraction occurs by an α-ketol rearrangement and a resonance stabilised ylide (10) results.Whereas benzil yields only diphenylbutadiene with anexcess of the ylide, 9,10-phenanthraquinone gives an α-hydroxyketone (15).

- Grignard Addition Reactions to 1,4-Difunctionalized But-2-ynes
-
Trisubstituted alkenes of E geometry have been prepared by anti addition of Grignard reagents to 1,4-difunctionalized but-2-ynes.Addition of primary, secondary and aromatic Grignard reagents to but-2-yne-1,4-diol provided (E)-2-substituted but-2-ene-1,4-diols as major products along with the corresponding 2-substituted buta-2,3-dien-1-ols.Addition of phenylmagnesium bromide to the mono- and di-methyl ethers of but-2-yne-1,4-diol gave 2,3-diphenyl-1,3-diene.Treatment of 4-dimethylaminobut-2-yn-1-ol with primary alkyl and alkenyl Grignard reagents afforded the 2-substituted anti addition product regiospecifically, stereospecifically and in high yield.Reaction of 1-dimethylamino-4-methoxybut-2-yne with butylmagnesium bromide provided only the 3-substituted anti addition product in good yield.

- Synthesis and reaction chemistry of the readily available molybdenum S2O complex [MoO(S2CNEt2)2(S2O)]
-
The synthesis (by S2O transfer and S2 complex oxidation) and characterization by X-ray diffraction of MoO(S2CNEt2)2(S2O) (1) is reported (monoclinic, P21/n, a = 9.4749 (15) ?, b = 21.9780 (32) ?, c = 9.6714 (16) ?, β = 107.225 (13)°, Z = 4, R(F) = 3.46%). S2O is bound to the metal in a side-on manner through both of the sulfurs. The geometry around the metal is a distorted pentagonal bipyramid with both sulfurs of S2O in the equatorial plane. In a preliminary reactivity study, 1 has been shown to effect sulfur and oxygen transfer to triphenylphosphine. Complex 1 can also be used as a template for thiosulfinate ester (RSS(O)R′) synthesis and as a reagent for oxidative coupling of carbanions.
