- Aromatic trifluoromethylation catalytic in copper
-
Cu(i)-diamine complexes were found to catalyse the trifluoromethylation of aryl iodides. In the presence of a small amount of CuX (X = Cl, Br, I) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), the cross-coupling reactions of iodoarenes with trifluoromethylsilanes proceeded smoothly to afford trifluoromethylated aromatics in good yields.

- Mechanistic Insight into Copper-Mediated Trifluoromethylation of Aryl Halides: The Role of CuI
-
The synthesis, characterization, and reactivity of key intermediates [Cu(CF3)(X)]-Q+ (X = CF3 or I, Q = PPh4) in copper-mediated trifluoromethylation of aryl halides were studied. Qualitative and quantitative studies showed [Cu(CF3)2]-Q+ and [Cu(CF3)(I)]-Q+ were not highly reactive. Instead, a much more reactive species, ligandless [CuCF3] or DMF-ligated species [(DMF)CuCF3], was generated in the presence of excess CuI. On the basis of these results, a general mechanistic map for CuI-promoted trifluoromethylation of aryl halides was proposed. Furthermore, on the basis of this mechanistic understanding, a HOAc-promoted protocol for trifluoromethylation of aryl halides with [Ph4P]+[Cu(CF3)2]- was developed.

- Cross-Coupling through Ag(I)/Ag(III) Redox Manifold
-
In ample variety of transformations, the presence of silver as an additive or co-catalyst is believed to be innocuous for the efficiency of the operating metal catalyst. Even though Ag additives are required often as coupling partners, oxidants or halide scavengers, its role as a catalytically competent species is widely neglected in cross-coupling reactions. Most likely, this is due to the erroneously assumed incapacity of Ag to undergo 2e? redox steps. Definite proof is herein provided for the required elementary steps to accomplish the oxidative trifluoromethylation of arenes through AgI/AgIII redox catalysis (i. e. CEL coupling), namely: i) easy AgI/AgIII 2e? oxidation mediated by air; ii) bpy/phen ligation to AgIII; iii) boron-to-AgIII aryl transfer; and iv) ulterior reductive elimination of benzotrifluorides from an [aryl-AgIII-CF3] fragment. More precisely, an ultimate entry and full characterization of organosilver(III) compounds [K]+[AgIII(CF3)4]? (K-1), [(bpy)AgIII(CF3)3] (2) and [(phen)AgIII(CF3)3] (3), is described. The utility of 3 in cross-coupling has been showcased unambiguously, and a large variety of arylboron compounds was trifluoromethylated via [AgIII(aryl)(CF3)3]? intermediates. This work breaks with old stereotypes and misconceptions regarding the inability of Ag to undergo cross-coupling by itself.

-
The ipso nitration of aryl boronic acid derivatives has been developed using fuming nitric acid as the nitrating agent. This facile procedure provides efficient and chemoselective access to a variety of aromatic nitro compounds. While several activating agents and nitro sources have been reported in the literature for this synthetically useful transformation, this report demonstrates that these processes likely generate a common active reagent, anhydrous HNO3. Kinetic and mechanistic studies have revealed that the reaction order in HNO3 is >2 and indicate that the ?NO2 radical is the active species.

- Solvated Nickel Complexes as Stoichiometric and Catalytic Perfluoroalkylation Agents**
-
The acetonitrile-solvated [(MeCN)Ni(C2F5)3]? was prepared in order to compare and contrast its reactivity with the known [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? towards organic electrophiles. Both [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? and [(MeCN)Ni(C2F5)3]? successfully react with aryl iodonium and diazonium salts as well as alkynyl iodonium salts to give fluoroalkylated organic products. Electrochemical analysis of [(MeCN)NiII(C2F5)3]? suggests that, upon electro-oxidation to [(MeCN)nNiIII(C2F5)3], reductive homolysis of a perfluoroethyl radical occurs, with the concomitant formation of [(MeCN)2NiII(C2F5)2]. Catalytic C?H trifluoromethylations of electron-rich arenes were successfully achieved using either [(MeCN)Ni(CF3)3]? or the related [Ni(CF3)4]2?. Stoichiometric reactions of the solvated nickel complexes reveal that “ligandless” nickel is exceptionally capable of serving as reservoir of CF3 groups under catalytically relevant conditions.

The development of two highly reactive electrophilic trifluoromethylating reagents (trifluoromethyl)(4-nitrophenyl)bis(carbomethoxy)methylide (1g) and (trifluoromethyl)(3-chlorophenyl)bis(carbomethoxy)methylide (1j) through structure-activity study was described. Under mild conditions, reagent 1g reacted with β-ketoesters and silyl enol ethers to give α-trifluoromethylated-β-ketoesters or α-trifluoromethylated ketones in high yields. In addition, reagent 1g could serve as a trifluoromethyl radical for a variety of trifluoromethylative transformations under visible light irradiation, including radical trifluoromethylation of electron-rich indoles and pyrroles and sodium aryl sulfinates as well as trifluoromethylative difunctionalization with styrene derivatives. On the other hand, as a complimentary, under reductive coupling conditions, reagent 1j reacted with a variety of (hetero)aryl iodides for the formation of trifluoromethylated (hetero)arenes.

- Au@ZnO Core-Shell: Scalable Photocatalytic Trifluoromethylation Using CF3CO2Na as an Inexpensive Reagent under Visible Light Irradiation
-
Trifluoromethylation is of significant importance for the synthesis of many small molecules vital for medicinal and agrochemical research. The importance of the CF3 group as well as the related synthetic challenges is so evident that many reagents have been reported for the synthesis of trifluoromethylated compounds, but these typical reagents are expensive and the methods for preparing them are difficult. Here, we report a new scalable and operationally simple trifluoromethylation reaction using sodium trifluoroacetate as a reagent and Au-modified ZnO as a photocatalyst under visible light irradiation. The reaction proceeds via trifluoromethylation of a broad range of aryl halides, arylboronic acids, and arene and heteroarene substrates. Some pharmaceutical and agrochemical compounds have been trifluoromethylated directly to demonstrate the applicability of the method.

-
Herein, we report on the photoredox-initiated gold-mediated C(sp2)-CF3 and C(sp2)-N coupling reactions. By adopting gold as a platform for probing metallaphotoredox catalysis, we demonstrate that cationic gold(III) complexes are the key intermediates of the C-C and C-N coupling reactions. The high-valent gold(III) intermediates are accessed by virtue of photoredox catalysis through a radical chain process. In addition, the bond-forming step of the coupling reactions is the reductive elimination from cationic gold(III) intermediates, which is supported by isolation and crystallographic characterization of key Au(III) intermediates.

This article describes the new economic decarboxylative trifluoromethylating reagent [Cu(phen)(O2CCF3)] (1; phen=1,10-phenanthroline) and the efficient difluorocarbene precursor [Cu(phen)2][O2CCF2Cl] (2). Treatment of copper tert-butoxide with phen and subsequent addition of trifluoroacetic acid or chlorodifluoroacetic acid afforded air-stable complexes 1 and 2, respectively, which were characterized by X-ray crystallography. The copper(I) ion in 1 is coordinated by a bidentate phen ligand, a monodentate trifluoroacetate group, and a molecule of CH3CN in a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. The molecular structure of 2 adopts an ionic form that consists of a [Cu(phen)2]+ cation and a chlorodifluoroacetate anion. Complex 1 reacted with a variety of aryl and heteroaryl halides to form trifluoromethyl (hetero)arenes in good yields. The corresponding Hammett plot exhibited a linear relationship and a reaction parameter (ρ)=+0.56±0.02, which indicated that the trifluoromethylation reaction proceeded via a nucleophilic reactive species. Complex 2 reacts with phenols to produce aryl difluoromethyl ethers in modest-to-excellent yields. Mechanistic investigations revealed that the difluoromethylation reaction proceeds by initial copper-mediated formation of difluorocarbene and subsequent concerted addition of difluorocarbene to the phenol to form a three-center transition state.

This species is directly formed from the tetrahedral cuprate intermediate through intramolecular migration of the trifluoromethyl group to copper. The CuCF3reagent prepared in situ by our method can be used for the trifluoromethylation of aryl iodides, arylboronic acids, and terminal alkynes in good to excellent yields, even on a gram scale. Furthermore, the CuC2F5reagent can be prepared in the same way, and this can be used in the pentafluoroethylation of arylboronic acids or aryl bromides in good to excellent yields.

A novel and efficient method for the regioselective nitration of a series of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids to their corresponding nitro compounds using nitronium tetrafluoroborate and silver carbonate in dimethylacetamide has been described. This transformation is believed to proceed via the alkyl-silver or aryl-silver intermediate, which subsequently reacts with the nitronium ion to form nitro substances. Mild reaction conditions, tolerant of a broad range of functional groups, and formation of only the ipso-nitrated products are the key features of this methodology when compared to known methods for syntheses of nitroalkyls and nitroarenes.

Both of these transformations proceed under mild conditions and tolerate functional groups.

- Copper-mediated trifluoromethylation using phenyl trifluoromethyl sulfoxide
-
A new method for the generation of trifluoromethylcopper ( CuCF3 ) species from readily available phenyl trifluoromethyl sulfoxide has been developed. The CuCF3 reagent can be applied in efficient trifluoromethylations of aryl iodides and activated aryl bromides in the absence of additional ligands. Furthermore, the CuCF3 species can also undergo oxidative cross-coupling with terminal alkynes and arylboronic acids.

-
A mixture of bismuth nitrate pentahydrate and potassium aryltrifluoroborate in toluene under microwave heating at 120 C for 20 min provides an interesting and mild reaction protocol for the synthesis of aryl nitrite. The conversion to aryl nitrites from aryltrifluoroborates without transition metal catalyst and base in high yields is remarkable.

- Mechanism of trifluoromethylation of aryl halides with CuCF3and the ortho effect
-
A combined experimental (radical clock, kinetic, Hammett) and computational (DFT, MM) study of the trifluoromethylation reaction of aryl halides with CuCF3 reveals a nonradical mechanism involving Ar-X oxidative addition to the Cu(I) center as the rate determining step. The reaction is second order, first order in each reactant with ΔG? ≈ 24 kcal/mol for PhI (computed ΔG? = 21.9 kcal/ mol). An abrupt change in the gradient on the Hammett plot of log(kR/ kH) versus σp for 11 p-RC6H4I substrates produces two correlations (ρ = +0.69 and +1.83), which is temptingly suggestive of two different reaction pathways. Only one mechanism is operational, however, as advocated by a single linear correlation with σp- (ρ = +0.91), analysis of the experimental ρ values, close similarity of the transition states varying in R and displaying clear signs of -M interactions, and excellent reproduction of the plot by DFT. The long-known yet previously uncomprehended ortho effect has been quantified, for the first time, using the reaction of CuCF3 with a series of o-RC6H4Br: R(kR/kH) = H (1) 2Me (850) 2 (4300) 2H (150 000). With minor contributions from electronic factors, the ortho effect is largely determined by (i) the stabilizing coordination of the o-substituent to Cu in the transition state with the Cu?O distance varying directly with the barrier and (ii) the steric bulk of the o-substituent that raises the ground state free energy of the haloarene (Go ortho - Go H or Go ortho - Go para) by inflicting molecular strain and consequently weakening the Ar-X bond.

- Efficient copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of aromatic and heteroaromatic iodides: The beneficial anchoring effect of borates
-
Efficient copper-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of aromatic iodides was achieved with TMSCF3 in the presence of trimethylborate. The Lewis acid was used to anchor the in situ generated trifluoromethyl anion and suppress its rapid decomposition. Broad applicability of the new trifluoromethylating reaction was demonstrated in the functionalization of different aromatic and heteroaromatic iodides.

- Trifluoromethylation of aryl and heteroaryl halides with fluoroform-derived CuCF3: Scope, limitations, and mechanistic features
-
Fluoroform-derived CuCF3 recently discovered in our group exhibits remarkably high reactivity toward aryl and heteroaryl halides, performing best in the absence of extra ligands. A broad variety of iodoarenes undergo smooth trifluoromethylation with the ligandless CuCF3 at 23-50 C to give the corresponding benzotrifluorides in nearly quantitative yield. A number of much less reactive aromatic bromides also have been trifluoromethylated, including pyridine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, and thiazole derivatives as well as aryl bromides bearing electron-withdrawing groups and/or ortho substituents. Only the most electrophilic chloroarenes can be trifluoromethylated, e.g., 2-chloronicotinic acid. Exceptionally high chemoselectivity of the reactions (no side-formation of arenes, biaryls, and C2F5 derivatives) has allowed for the isolation of a large number of trifluoromethylated products in high yield on a gram scale (up to 20 mmol). The CuCF3 reagent is destabilized by CuX coproduced in the reaction, the magnitude of the effect paralleling the Lewis acidity of CuX: CuCl > CuBr > CuI. While SNAr and SRN1 mechanisms are not operational, there is a well-pronounced ortho effect, i.e., the enhanced reactivity of ortho-substituted aryl halides 2-RC6H4X toward CuCF3. Intriguingly, this ortho-effect is observed for R = NO2, COOH, CHO, COOEt, COCH3, OCH3, and even CH3, but not for R = CN. The fluoroform-derived CuCF3 reagent and its reactions with haloarenes provide an unmatched combination of reactivity, selectivity, and low cost.

- FLUOROALKYLATION METHODS AND REAGENTS
-
A method of forming a fluorinated molecular entity includes reacting in a reaction mixture an aromatic halide, copper, a fluoroalkyl group, and a ligand. The aromatic halide includes an aromatic group and a halogen substituent bonded to the aromatic group. The ligand includes at least one group-V donor selected from phosphorus and an amine. The overall molar ratio of copper to aromatic halide in the reaction mixture is from 0.2 to 3. The method further includes forming a fluoroalkylarene including the aromatic group and the fluoroalkyl group bonded to the aromatic group. A composition, which may be used in the method, consists essentially of copper, the fluoroalkyl group, and the ligand, where the molar ratio of copper to the fluoroalkyl group is approximately 1.
