- Using Methanol as a Formaldehyde Surrogate for Sustainable Synthesis of N-Heterocycles via Manganese-Catalyzed Dehydrogenative Cyclization
-
The development of an efficient and sustainable synthetic route for formaldehyde production from renewable feedstock, especially in combination with a subsequent transformation to straightforwardly construct valuable chemicals, is highly desirable. Herein, we report a novel manganese-catalyzed dehydrogenative cyclization of methanol as a formaldehyde surrogate with a variety of dinucleophiles for facile synthesis of N-heterocycles. The in situ generated formaldehyde via catalytic methanol dehydrogenation can be selectively trapped by diverse dinucleophiles to avoid several possible side reactions. The utility of this transformation is further highlighted by its successful application to the synthesis of 13C-labeled N-heterocycles using 13CH3OH as a readily accessible 13C-isotope reagent.

- Cu-Catalyzed C-H Allylation of Benzimidazoles with Allenes
-
CuH-catalyzed intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular allylation of benzimidazoles with allenes have been described. The reaction proceeded smoothly with the catalytic system of Cu(OAc)2/Xantphos and catalytic amount of (MeO)2MeSiH. This protocol features mild reaction conditions and a good tolerance of substrates bearing electron-withdrawing, electron-donating, or electron-neutral groups. A new catalytic mechanism was proposed for this copper hydride catalytic system.

- Endogenous X-C=O species enable catalyst-free formylation prerequisite for CO2reductive upgrading
-
CO2, the main component of greenhouse gas, is currently developed as a promising surrogate of carbon feedstock. Among various conversion routes, CO2undergoing catalytic reduction can furnish hydrogen/energy carriers and value-added chemicals, while specific metal-containing catalysts or organocatalysts are often prerequisite for smooth proceeding of the involved reaction processes. In this work, both formic acid and N-containing benzoheterocyclic compounds (including various benzimidazoles, benzothiazole, and benzoxazole) along with silanols could be synthesized with high yields (>90%) from catalyst-free reductive upgrading of CO2under mild conditions (50 °C). The endogenous X-CO species, derived from the N-methyl-substituted amide-based solvent [Me2N-C(O)-R], especially PolarClean, and O-formyl group [O-C(O)-H] of in situ formed silyl formate, were found to play a prominent promotional role in the activation of the used hydrosilane for reductive CO2insertion, as demonstrated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and isotopic labeling experiments. Moreover, reaction mechanisms and condition-based sensitivity assessment were also delineated.

- Solvent-Controlled, Site-Selective N-Alkylation Reactions of Azolo-Fused Ring Heterocycles at N1-, N2-, and N3-Positions, Including Pyrazolo[3,4- d]pyrimidines, Purines, [1,2,3]Triazolo[4,5]pyridines, and Related Deaza-Compounds
-
Alkylation of 4-methoxy-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (1b) with iodomethane in THF using NaHMDS as base selectively provided N2-methyl product 4-methoxy-2-methyl-2H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (3b) in an 8/1 ratio over N1-methyl product (2b). Interestingly, conducting the reaction in DMSO reversed selectivity to provide a 4/1 ratio of N1/N2 methylated products. Crystal structures of product 3b with N1 and N7 coordinated to sodium indicated a potential role for the latter reinforcing the N2-selectivity. Limits of selectivity were tested with 26 heterocycles which revealed that N7 was a controlling element directing alkylations to favor N2 for pyrazolo- and N3 for imidazo- and triazolo-fused ring heterocycles when conducted in THF. Use of 1H-detected pulsed field gradient-stimulated echo (PFG-STE) NMR defined the molecular weights of ionic reactive complexes. This data and DFT charge distribution calculations suggest close ion pairs (CIPs) or tight ion pairs (TIPs) control alkylation selectivity in THF and solvent-separated ion pairs (SIPs) are the reactive species in DMSO.
